Chapter 511 Battle Intensifies

  The elder vampire was in a dazed status sensing the energy radiated from them. A moment ago, when they fought alone, he didn't feel the energy. Still, the moment they joined forces, the energy radiation overwhelmed him. While he was in a daze, Michael lifted Noah into the air by his hand, and Noah used Michael as a pole to kick the vampires around them.

  "Blood hole!"

  "Blood tornado!"

  Overwhelmed by Michael and Noah, the vampires cast the blood hole and the blood tornado spell at the same time as several tornadoes and red holes appeared in the ground. 

  Having experienced the spells, Michael put his hand around Noah's neck,

  "Hold tight," Noah nodded as he also put his hand around Michael's neck,

  "Lightning Dash!"

  "Void Step!"

  Both of them cast their speed spell at the same time to boost their speed. 

  The two spells merged into one, forming a trail of golden light that flickered in the air creating an otherworldly whistling sound. The golden light crisscrossed around the arena avoiding the tornados. But, even for the elder vampire, it was difficult to follow the trail. So it made sense when the vampires couldn't even defend themselves before losing their heads.

  The red hole sucked the alchemists' bodies to the ground while the tornado destroyed the bodies. When Noah was alone, he was weakened by the darkness. Noah's weakness was nulled by teaming up with Michael, the god of darkness who drew strength from the darkness.

  Because of their speed, the red holes could suck them in. Compared to the suction force, their speed was much greater. As a result, the Elder vampire witnessed his underlings losing heads one by one.

  "They said he would be weakened," the elder vampire snarled,

  When the system sounded in his head, Michael stopped running, and all the red holes and the tornados vanished into thin air. At that moment, only one vampire remained between them and the elder vampire.

  "He is all yours," Michael let Noah capture the vampire alive. He walked by Noah's side towards the vampire. They both knew the battle was far from over as the elder vampire didn't even raise a finger yet. For now, Noah planned to incapacitate the vampire before fighting the elder vampire.

  After witnessing all of his friends get slaughtered by the duo, the vampire shivered. Then, fearfully, it walked backward until it tripped on a stone and fell down.

  "Save me," the vampire begged the elder vampire.

  Michael never wanted Noah to capture the vampire alive. Any information Noah gathered from the vampire would give him an edge Michael did not want Noah to have. Hence, he didn't help Noah capture the vampire. However, he could have simply injected the vampire with a paralyzing poison he hit Victor with.

  "Come here," The elder vampire softly spoke to the vampire,

  The vampire quickly picked himself up from the ground and dashed to the elder vampire's feet,

  "NO!" Noah dashed at the elder vampire, but it was too late. First, the elder vampire engulfed the vampire in his red mist. Then, with the X-ray eyes, Michael saw the elder vampire's tongue drilling into the vampire's mouth as the vampire squirmed like a fish out of the water.

  In a couple of seconds, a mummified body hit the ground. Then, finally, the red shroud around the elder vampire slowly cleared up to reveal his complete physical form.

  The elder vampire had a bloated carcass with several yellowish tumors leaking a green goo. His body was at least four feet wide and six feet tall.

  The inflated belly looked like the elder vampire swallowed a whole gym ball. Now Michael fully understood why the elder vampire chose to surround himself with a misty shroud. Just the disgusting belly button alone would make anyone puke to death.

  On top of everything, the elder vampire was naked. The last thing Michael needed was a sight of what was between his legs. Luckily for them, the vampire's inflated belly was big enough to cover his crotch. Not that vampires had reproductive organs. Still, Michael did not wish to see that.

  Several strands of mucky blonde hair on the vampire's bald egg-like head creepily waved left and right to the wind's rhythm. 

  His dirty eyes with vertically slit red pupils stared at both menacingly. Looking at his unappealing body, Noah couldn't help frowning. He had never seen such a hideous creature in his life, and he had traveled to many realms and fought countless ugly creatures.

  "When you want something done, you have to do it by yourself," the vampire snarled,

  "Light blast!"

  Noah raised his hand without warning, sending a light beam blast at the elder vampire. Noah was fast, but the elder vampire was faster. Hence, the vampire raised his hand as a translucent energy shield materialized before him and blocked the light beam.

  "Heaven's flame. It's a pity I can't take it from you," The shield blocked the light beam strengthened with Heaven's flame,

  "Chantless spell casting," Michael mumbled. It seemed as if the elder vampire was either a Fusion stage cultivator or a prodigy, or the elder vampires were able to cast spells without chanting.

  "System, you know the drill. When the heat gets too much to handle, teleport me away," Michael said to the system in his mind. 

  [Noted]

  This was Michael's plan b. In case the elder vampire overwhelmed them, the system would buy a teleportation scroll and teleport him away from the arena. Else, he planned to battle and kill the elder vampire. His blood might be just the thing Michael needed to find a cure for vampirism. Moreover, he was curious to see how many badass points he would get after slaying the elder vampire.

  "Void Step,"

  Unlike Michael, who stayed behind scheming in his head, Noah dashed at the elder vampire.

  Clang!

  Clang!

  Clang!

  Noah swung the sword covered with Heaven's flame at the shield. Although the shield flickered, the shield did not break until a fist poked through the shield.

  Boom!

  Noah blocked the fist with his sword. However, the force behind the punch overwhelmed Noah as he was sent flinging in the air. The lack of light really suppressed Noah's power, and without Michael by his side to fight, Noah stood no chance against the elder vampire's punch. This didn't mean Michael could battle the vampire without breaking a sweat.

  In a blink of an eye, the elder vampire dashed at Michael after hitting Noah. Despite the elder vampire's bloated body, his speed matched Michael's speed when using the Lightning dash.

  The elder vampire brought down his fist on Michael, who had his instincts kick in to block the punch. Michael put his arms before his face to block the punch, and when the fist collided with Michael's arm, a loud booming sound reverberated in the area. As the outcome of their collision, Michael's feet were pushed several inches into the ground. After that, the elder vampire repeatedly beat Michael like a drum.

  Boom!

  Boom!

  Boom!

  The elder vampire kept bashing him with his fists. Michael didn't even have a single second to breathe. To Michael, it felt like he was being slammed by an elephant.

  His forearm went numb by blocking the vampire's punches. If it wasn't for the APD constantly injecting him with healing potions, he would have been either dead or broken to pieces. At that moment, APD was the only thing keeping him from becoming a victim of the elder vampire.

  "Enough," all of a sudden, Michael's eyes flared up for a second before he grabbed the vampire's hands. He manipulated the darkness, drawing strength from it to thwart the elder vampire's punches.

  "Arggghh," Michael shouted as he fought against the raw strength of the vampire. The ground Michael standing on was cracking as his feet kept going deeper and deeper.

  "ARGH" Crying out loud, Michael punched the elder vampire in the belly using all his strength. 

  Boom!

  The punch's force pushed back the vampire a few feets backward. One could see the ripples on the vampire's bloated belly and a tinge of surprise in his eyes.

  "Void Step!" After Michael punched the vampire, Noah leaped at him in a flash. Soon, Noah appeared above the vampire's head and brought Michael's sword down the vampire's neck.

  "Ring of fire!" Immediately Michael cast the ring of fire to entrap the vampire within the circle. But, in mid-air, Noah held the sword in one hand and pointed the other at the fire, sending a stream of Heaven's flame to the crimson red fire.

  Noah and Michael's coordination and speed stunned the vampire. Before he could even react, the crimson red fire turned golden. These golden flames burned many of his underlings to ashes. Even though he was powerful, the elder vampire did not dare to underestimate Heaven's flame.

  "AH!" The elder vampire was a second late to react, resulting in Noah stabbing him in the shoulder.

  Bang!

  The vampire moved quickly to swat Noah away from his shoulder like a bug.

  Boom!

  Michael used the opportunity to dash at the vampire before punching him again in the stomach.

  Bang!

  With a single backhand slap, the vampire sent Michael flying just like Noah.

  After streaking through the ground for a few long, painful seconds, Michael picked himself up from the ground as the APD sent a dose of healing potion into his bloodstream.

  Noah who stood a few meters away from Michael with tattered white robes, chugged a healing potion down and threw the vial aside.

  "He is too strong," Noah exhaled. For a moment, the three stood without raising a finger.

  "And you lost the sword," Michael looked at the sword stabbed into the vampire's shoulder. The sword almost looked like a needle due to the bloated size of the vampire.

  "Annoying bugs!" 

  The vampire bore his teeth to reveal the long, razor-sharp fangs. The two fangs were long and menacing as sabretooth's canines.

  As he took a step forward, a large mace materialized in his hand. The mace almost looked as though it was made of blood rather than metal.

  With each step he took, the ground trembled.

  "Don't worry, your bodies will heal" the vampire menacingly grinned at Michael and Noah. If anyone else were in Noah and Michael's shoes, they would have started to shiver. The amount of pressure they both felt could crush any Body Strengthening stage cultivator into a bloody pulp.

  Despite the pressure, they remained calm. There was no use in panicking. 

  Boom!

  The elder vampire pounded a body on its way to a pulpy mess without showing any shred of sympathy for his kind. The blood vaporized into the air and entered his body. After the blood entered his body, he licked his lips.
