The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　……

　However, its invitation to battle was not successfully conveyed, as the orc dialect from a hundred years ago was far too different from the official language of the kingdom today.

　To Dark, it sounded more like a threatening roar.

　However, despite the failure of communication, both sides launched their own offensives simultaneously!

　"Yao Mi!"

　The dream demon seemed completely oblivious to the tense atmosphere, letting out a light, cheerful cry.

　The next moment, it floated forward at Dark's command and merged into the "Nightmare Space".

　In the eyes of the orc swordsman, the ghost-like purple creature vanished completely.

　The nightmare demon can create illusions at will in the "nightmare space," making it impossible for people to distinguish between reality and illusion, thus plunging them into chaos.

　But after squinting in thought, the orc swordsman suddenly swung his sword forward, and the terrifying blood-red sword light reappeared, completely tearing apart the smoke in front of him.

　The sword light even flew more than ten meters away before dissipating in the air.

　"what!"

　The dream demon suddenly let out a scream and appeared from the air.

　The orc swordsman curled his lips into a cold smile on his long, hairy face.

　Then it sheathed the "Holy Sword" at its waist, leaned forward, stomped its feet, and sped forward—its base speed was far greater than that of the Dream Demon, so its movement path in this "Nightmare Space" would be distorted and lengthened by space, making its movement speed in reality seem extremely slow.

　The car, which was originally moving at high speed, seemed to be standing still.

　—It wasn't until he took two steps that Groot suddenly realized the problem.

　But he only hesitated for a moment before his well-trained body reacted naturally, and the next sword light burst forth!

　"Shh!"

　The sword light was still aimed at the reappearing Dream Demon, and almost instantly tore its body apart.

　Groot sheathed his sword again, his eyes narrowing sharply!

　The purple smoke covering the area was clearly released by the Misdreavus. It could clearly feel that its movement speed was restricted, but its attack speed remained unchanged.

　This bizarre ability is something it has never seen before.

　No matter how strange the ability, as long as there is a longsword in hand, there is nothing to fear!

　Groot suddenly felt something churning in his mind, and fragmented images suddenly appeared, almost overlapping with the current scene.

　This caused his eyes to gleam with a bloodthirsty light, and he suddenly tightened his grip on the sword hilt.

　The hunger welling up from the depths of my soul grew ever stronger.

　Suddenly it covered its forehead, its shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and it let out a low growl.

　In that very instant.

　Smoke billowed behind it, and sharp claws silently emerged, turning fiercely towards its back!

　Under normal circumstances, Groot would only notice the smoke rising and could instantly cut the attacker in half with a single backward swing of his sword.

　But its condition was clearly not right at the moment; it had been hit by a claw!

　……

　On the high platform, Dark did not feel joy at the fact that the Dream Demon's attack had hit.

　Because that claw strike had absolutely no effect.

　With a combined attack power of 2500 points, the Dream Demon couldn't even break through its defenses!

　After its attack failed, it immediately fled and disappeared into the purple smoke once again.

　"Let me do it."

　Tailmon gently stroked the "Holy Sword" and whispered.

　After a moment's hesitation, Dak nodded in agreement.

　Although Gatomon is only a four-star magical spirit, it has the "Holy Ring" + "Single Sword Sheath", which can boost its attack power to 3600 points.

　Even if this orc swordsman is a third-tier magic elf, he can barely handle it.

　Moreover, within this "Nightmare Space," Gatomon's relative speed might even be faster than that of the Orc Sword Saint.

　The only problem is that its speed, which will also be slowed down, may not be able to dodge the Orc Blademaster's sword strike!

　"Nightmare Space" not only bound the Orc Sword Saint, but also Gatomon.

　Since the Nightmare Demon cannot deal effective damage to the Orc Blademaster, the Nightmare Space may become an obstacle to defeating the BOSS.

　However, given the current situation, it is still inconvenient to lift the ban.

　We should at least thoroughly investigate the strength of the bosses in this tier before considering anything further.

　While Dark was calmly pondering, Gatomon had already gracefully leaped down from the high platform.

　The moment it landed, it leaped forward, dragging its sword as it sped away.

　Suddenly, a soft laugh from the Dream Demon echoed through the void.

　The seemingly fast but actually slow Dilumon suddenly split into three, charging towards the Orc Sword Saint from three directions.

　During the run, the "single sword sheath" shone with brilliance, its divine power remaining completely hidden.

　However, the unique aura of the "Holy Sword" shines as brightly as a firefly in the dark in the eyes of its wielder.

　The arrival of Gatomon caused a great shock to the mind of the Orc Sword Saint.

　It suddenly raised its forehead, its two vertically oriented eyes already filled with blood red.

　When reason is overwhelmed by instinct, the sword in the orc swordsman's hand becomes even more thirsty!

　It stood still, but the way it swung its sword changed.

　The return of fragmented memories makes its posture when wielding the sword more perfect, and the details of its power exertion have also made great progress.

　At this moment, he swung the sword horizontally again, and the blood-red sword light that burst out from the sword was larger and longer than before, covering a wider area.

　The three Gatomon that were "galloping" from the front were cut in half at the waist by the suddenly stronger sword light.

　The orc swordsman's eyes flashed, and he thrust his sword to the side!

　"Qiang!"

　The two "holy swords" clashed for the first time, traversing the long river of time.

　With the help of Mismagius, Gatomon, which had completely concealed its form, immediately pressed its wrist and retreated hastily.

　The collision just now almost knocked the "single sword sheath" out of its hand!

　The disparity in strength between the two sides was laid bare at that moment.

　If we also consider that the lifespan of a tiered boss is far greater than that of a regular monster when it is created...

　This tenth-level boss is definitely not something that can be defeated by one person alone!

　Tailmon was not blinded by its innate arrogance; it was well aware that it was not actually that powerful.

　Even if magical spirits possess intelligence, they cannot break through their own limitations and unleash power beyond their limits on their own.

　But it has an owner, and the deep bond between them will make it faster and stronger!

　With cold eyes, Gatomon once again disappeared into the purple mist, vanishing from the sight of the Orc Sword Saint.

　Groot Dulles turned his head sharply, feeling unusually agitated by the thick purple fog that filled the surroundings.

　It suddenly opened its bloody maw in front of it, then inhaled sharply and spewed it out!

　As blood-red light condensed in his mouth, a spinning crimson orb of light was ejected from it.

　The crimson orb exploded in mid-air, and a terrifying shockwave spread rapidly in all directions, finally dispersing all the purple smoke.

　However, the effect of "Nightmare Space" did not disappear as the smoke dissipated.

　For this venue, the purple smoke was nothing more than a special effect.

　Tailmon is still nowhere to be found.

　Groot Dulles stared wide-eyed and let out a hoarse roar.

　It is extremely sensitive to killing intent or malice, and once Gatomon gets close, there is no way to escape its keen perception.

　However, if Gatomon continues to roam freely, it will not be easy to capture.

　The familiar scene before him caused Groot's head to throb with pain. Fragmented images flooded his mind again, and it was his past experiences that made him slowly raise the "Holy Sword" in his hand!

　It did not know the name of the holy sword in its hand.

　This "holy sword" is not the sword of its "past".

　When it awoke, the "holy sword" was already submerged at the bottom of a pool filled with blood-red liquid.

　But this did not prevent it from taking control of the "Holy Sword" and unleashing its hidden power on the spot!

　"Blood River Sacred Domain!"

　Groot raised his other hand to grasp the hilt, held the holy sword vertically in his line of sight, and then let out a fierce roar.

　Immediately, a sea of ​​blood-red light surged forth from the holy sword.

　The sacred aura unique to the holy sword also suddenly erupted.

　The surrounding spatial position appeared strangely distorted.

　The nightmare suddenly appeared beside Dark, letting out a rapid cry.

　Dark's expression turned serious: "Is it a field technique like Blood Realm?"

　Using field techniques to dispel or cover field techniques is an essential skill for any seasoned mage.

　Although Groot is not a mage, he can use the "Blood Sword" in his hand to unleash field techniques.

　While this field technique may not necessarily be of a higher sequence than "Nightmare Space," Groot himself is significantly stronger than Misdreavus.

　The "Blood River Sacred Domain" tore open the "Nightmare Space" with an overwhelming force.

　"Yao Mi!"

　The nightmare's cries grew more urgent as it struggled with all its might to maintain the existence of the "Nightmare Space".

　But its disadvantages were too great, and it was gradually stretched, distorted, and penetrated...

　The area is closed.

　Tailmon's form was also revealed, its eyes fixed on the "Holy Sword" in Groot's hand!

　The bloody aura emanating from that "Blood Holy Sword" was incongruous with its sacred aura, yet they were paradoxically fused together.

　It instantly reminded it of the time when "Mad Lionmon" wielded the Holy Sword.

　However, these two are absolutely different.

　Gatomon couldn't understand the difference, but it loathed both of them!

　Its evil nature, dark nature, blood, and demons all cause it to physiologically reject them.

　"Single sword sheath!"

　With a light tap of its longsword, an incomparably pure and holy aura instantly erupted from the "Single Sword Sheath," forming a stark contrast to the murky aura of the "Blood Holy Sword."

　The blood waves of the "Blood River Sanctuary" broke through the "Nightmare Space" and surged towards it. But they were immediately forced to the sides by the holy aura of the "Single Sword Sheath".

　Gatomon's expression turned serious as it suddenly turned to its master on the platform!

　As if sensing something, Dak also looked at it almost at the same time.

　The thoughts of the mage and the magical spirit synchronized, and a power called "bond" rippled outwards.

　"it's time!"

　Gatomon suddenly raised the Holy Sword high.

　Dark held "Pride IV" across his body.

　"In the name of Dark Demon, Summon Magic!"

　A dark golden light shone into the arena like a blazing sun, and the golden-red "Arrogance" crest appeared on Tailmon's forehead.
