468 Not Fighting, But Still Dying
Even after everything Vaan said, Emperor Renardier, Ulrich Salazar, and the other Aura Lords did not appear to be listening to him; they were completely and utterly preoccupied and distracted by the blue flames’ presence.
What the actual fuck was going on?! Why wasn’t the antimagic field working?! How could the young man still use fire magic?
Even if Emperor Renardier and Ulrich Salazar were both existences that achieved peak Transcendent rank in strength one way or another, they were still, in the end, peak Transcendents, nothing more.
The Demigod rank, which they would refer to as Beyond Transcendent rank, was uncharted territory. They had no idea the extent of power such beings wield nor their abilities.
As such, they did not know that Demigod-rank beings and above could tap into the limitless power of the universal laws, which did not require mana. Thus, they weren’t affected by the antimagic field.
But while Emperor Renardier remained confused, Ulrich Salazar received divine revelation from the Great Devil he served.
In that instant, the fog over his eyes immediately cleared up.
“Demigod… He’s a Demigod! We were fools to think we could cripple a Demigod’s Divine Authority with the antimagic field! He wasn’t using fire magic but the Divine Authority of Fire!” Ulrich exclaimed.
However, sharing his newfound knowledge did not make others happy in the least. In fact, the seed of doubt in Emperor Renardier’s heart germinated.
“How do you even know that, Marquis Salazar—No, who are you, really? Don’t tell me you really are a Devil’s Contractor?!”
Even at that moment, Emperor Renardier didn’t want to believe before his eyes as Ulrich stopped hiding his demonic power.
“No…. It can’t be… How is that even possible?! How could you cultivate a holy aura with such a powerful demonic power at the same time?!”
“If I didn’t cultivate holy aura, how could I possibly fool everyone?
No one would have suspected the holiest person would turn out to be the most unholy being,” Ulrich chuckled dryly before solemnly saying, “However, that isn’t important. If you want to live, we must join hands!”
Indeed, at that moment, no one was Vaan’s match if he relied on his Fire Authority.
Although joining hands wouldn’t guarantee them victory over him, at the very least, they would definitely fail if they didn’t even try.
“Don’t worry. I won’t be using my Fire Authority; I’ll fight you with this.”
Following Vaan’s statement, Emperor Renardier, Ulrich, and the other Aura Lords all glanced at the Peak-level Rank 5 black-red greatsword Vaan had pulled out from Heaven-Swallowing Space.
Although they couldn’t tell its exact quality, it did make Emperor Renardier’s treasured Low-level Rank 5 greatsword look like garbage.
Emperor Renardier’s lips twitched.
However, the most pressing issue was that even at that moment, they could not sense Vaan’s aura cultivation at all—that was, until he finally decided to unleash his pressure.
!!!
‘Peak-stage… Aura Lord? Uh, that’s it?’ Emperor Renardier and Ulrich Salazar frowned.
Even though they could only sense Peak-stage Aura Lord-level pressure from Vaan, it was thick and tyrannical, definitely stronger than ordinary Peak-stage Aura Lords.
Emperor Renardier had his Sword Aura, Ulrich Salazar had his Holy Aura, and Vaan had his Dragon Aura.
Nevertheless, after Vaan revealed his aura, his skin revealed an exceptional luster that also exposed his physical qualities, which shocked Emperor Renardier and Ulrich Salazar.
Although Emperor Renardier and Ulrich Salazar didn’t know how Vaan cultivated his body to such extreme levels without acquiring excessive muscle mass, his strength would still only be around Low-level Rank 5 to Mid-level Rank 5 at most.
On the other hand, they were both Peak-level Rank 5 after their buffs and borrowed power.
Well, Emperor Renardier and Ulrich Salazar had nothing to complain about if Vaan intended to underestimate them. They weren’t going to go easy on him either way. No, they had to take him down while he was still careless!
Emperor Renardier and Ulrich Salazar gave each other a silent glance and understood each other’s intention.
In the next instant, they immediately lunged at Vaan from two opposing directions without warning. Emperor Renardier made a wide horizontal swing at Vaan’s left waist while Ulrich Salazar targeted the right side of his neck with his white longsword.
Boom!
Contact was made, and the subsequent shockwave from the two instantaneous and powerful clashes immediately blew the other Aura Lords away.
Ahh— Poof!
Some Aura Lords uttered short-lived cries as they flew into Vaan’s wall of blue flames and died on the spot, reduced to ashes and molten equipment.
People of their level simply lacked the qualifications to participate in the battle. Heck, they couldn’t even serve as proper cannon fodders.
They weren’t fighting, but they were still dying.
How sad.
Meanwhile, contrary to Emperor Renardier and Ulrich’s expectations, they did not succeed in cutting Vaan down in an instant.
Instead, Emperor Renardier’s greatsword was blocked by Vaan’s own greatsword, and, more surprisingly, Ulrich’s white longsword was caught with Vaan’s other spare hand.
“Impossible…!” the two uttered with shock and disbelief.
In such a short time, Vaan’s strength had skyrocketed from the Mid-level Rank 5 to a level beyond their comprehension.
Ding!

“Hoho, how scary. If I didn’t partially transform by arms first, I might have died then and there,” Vaan casually stated.
Indeed, if he wanted to stand a chance in a physical fight with two Peak-level Rank 5 beings at once, he had to enter his strongest physical form.
Meanwhile, Emperor Renardier and Ulrich quickly retracted their weapons and drew some distance. Then they observed Vaan’s dragon claws, scales, and still-growing long white hair and horns with solemn looks.
“You… What the hell are you?”
