"Have you really decided?"

Stella asked softly.

The two were standing in front of the last barrier stone, purple light flowing around them, like the last heartbeat of this prison.

Once shut down, the terrifying beast that lies dormant behind it will regain its freedom.

Alvin turned his head and looked at her without the slightest hesitation.

He nodded. "I'm ready. Don't worry, Stella, trust me."

Stella looked into his eyes, and in their depths she found the answer she needed.

She nodded and said no more.

The two of them placed their hands on the magical nodes of the barrier stone once again.

This time, the coordination and fusion of magic became exceptionally smooth, as if two originally separate streams had finally merged into the same river, without any further obstruction.

It felt easier than ever before... was it because of... that hug just now?

Stella felt shy, as if a knot that had been tugging at her heart had been quietly untied.

The hidden barriers and shyness seemed to melt away like ice and snow, allowing her to more openly and attentively intertwine her magic with Elwin's, guiding that power together to complete this final task.

As they continued to pour their magic into it, the light of the barrier stone began to flicker violently and erratically, until finally, with a faint buzzing sound, it dimmed completely.

Almost at the same time——

"Buzz!!!!"

The semi-transparent energy shield inside emitted a piercing sound!

The light on the shield became extremely unstable, flickering wildly like a faulty light bulb. Then, it began to thin at a visible speed, and finally, like a punctured bubble, it silently and completely dissipated!

The cage that had kept us separated for millennia was opened at this moment!

“Roar, ahh ...

A roar powerful enough to shatter eardrums, containing endless rage and savagery, exploded violently from the center of the inner field like a tangible sonic shock!

Imhotep's two enormous heads rose simultaneously, and its four eyes, burning with fel flames, suddenly opened!

Having been imprisoned for countless years, the sudden regaining of freedom instantly transformed the extreme repression into a mad frenzy that destroyed everything.

Imorta didn't even bother to discern directions. His massive body rose upright and then slammed down heavily, his enormous claws striking the ground so hard that the entire circular hall shook violently!

Its two heads spewed green fel flames wildly in all directions, and scorching fire waves swept through the empty inner area, sizzling the rocks as if they wanted to completely raze the place that had imprisoned it for thousands of years to the ground!

Just then, Elwin and Stella appeared at the entrance to the inner arena, facing the behemoth that had gone berserk.

Imhotep immediately noticed the two tiny figures.

Driven by its imprisoned rage and instinctive hatred for all living beings, it didn't hesitate for a moment. The head on its left suddenly turned towards them, its gaping maw opening wide, and a blazing pillar of evil energy, like a bursting dam, surged towards the two of them!

"Get away!"

Alvin shoved Stella aside and rolled to the other side.

The scorching fel flames grazed their bodies, leaving a charred trench in the ground, burning with green flames.

"Holy Fire!"

Elwin, having regained his footing, immediately retaliated, unleashing a condensed golden pillar of fire towards Imhotep's forelimbs.

However, the holy flames, powerful enough to purify the dead, only made a soft "hiss" sound when they struck the hellhound's dark red skin, leaving a palm-sized charred mark before quickly extinguishing, as if it had only been bitten by a mosquito.

"The skin is too thick! Conventional spells aren't very effective!"

"Irwin frowned and shouted."

Enraged by Elwin's counterattack, Imhotep spewed flames from its other head once more, while its massive forepaws swept across like steel whips, creating a piercing whistling sound!

Alvin narrowly escaped again with his agile movements, but he knew that this couldn't go on.

"Looks like we'll have to get serious!"

Alvin's eyes sharpened, and he called out to Stella,

"Help me hold them off!"

Stella understood and immediately began chanting, hurling ice arrows at Imorta. Although they did not cause any real damage, they did freeze and slow the monster, greatly interfering with Imorta's movements.

Elwin stopped all his dodging movements, stood still, held the Naaru Beacon upright in front of his chest, and closed his eyes.

A pure, divine energy began to awaken and surge from his body!

"In the name of the Holy Light, the ultimate ascetic practice!"

He suddenly opened his eyes, and at that moment, his pupils had turned completely into pure gold!

A dazzling golden light burst forth from every pore of his body, as if he had transformed into a miniature sun.

A pair of magnificent golden wings, composed entirely of holy light energy, suddenly unfolded behind him, scattering countless golden dust particles with each gentle flap!

Divine form!

This is a form of power that Erwin rarely uses, representing his true power as a "Miracle Priest"!

His wings of light suddenly flapped forward, and countless holy light bullets, each the size of a football but imbued with divine power, rained down on Imhotep's massive body like a storm!

“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM—!!!”

This time, the Holy Light Bullet is no longer a useless tickle.

They struck Imothal's skin, producing a series of explosive sounds.

Each holy light orb blasted a charred crater in its dark red, thick skin, and the golden holy light energy corroded its flesh like strong acid, purifying the evil energy within it!

Imortar let out a painful roar, his massive body was forced back repeatedly, and his body was instantly covered with countless wounds, with green fel blood flowing down like a stream!

"It worked!" Stella exclaimed in delight.

However, Imhotep, who had suffered a severe blow, also went completely insane.

Both heads simultaneously emitted a twisted roar, and their bodies blazed with a bright green fel energy!

Instead of spewing flames, it suddenly poured a massive amount of fel energy into the surrounding space!

In an instant, countless fel eyes burning with green flames appeared out of thin air around Elwin and Stella.

"Watch out for those evil eyes it summons!" Elwin shouted, quickly casting Power Word Shield on the two of them.

These eerie eyes, like floating ghosts, gleamed with a malevolent light in their pupils, locking onto the two of them!

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—!!!”

The next moment, countless green fel laser beams shot out from these eyes, forming a web of death that enveloped Elwin, who was in his holy form, from all directions!

Elwin's wings flapped rapidly in an attempt to dodge, but the number and density of the lasers were simply too great.

He knew that the Power Word Shield would not be able to stop so many attacks. Looking towards Stella, he saw that she had also cast an Ice Shield on herself.

"come over!"

He shouted, and white holy energy emanated from his hands. Stella felt her body being pulled by some force, and she was instantly brought to Elwin's side.

The next second, Elwin raised his staff and erected the energy shield of the Power Word: Barrier.

"Da da da da..."

"Uh!"

Countless lasers struck the energy shield simultaneously, and Imorta roared, unleashing even more attacks from the numerous evil eyes.

In the end, a laser beam still pierced through the defenses and struck Elwin's left shoulder hard. Even in his Holy Light form, he felt a sharp pain, causing him to let out a muffled groan as golden blood seeped from the wound.

"Alvin!"

Stella's heart leaped into her throat.

As more lasers were about to break through the energy shield, a resolute glint flashed in Stella's eyes.

She abandoned all minor spells and poured out all her magic power without reservation!

"snowstorm!"

She raised her hands high, and a super blizzard, far larger than ever before, descended instantly around her!

Countless extremely cold ice crystals, as dazzling as diamonds, carrying an absolute low temperature that seemed capable of freezing the soul, enveloped the airspace where all the Evil Eyes were located!

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

The sound of freezing echoed throughout!

The countless eyes of evil energy suddenly slowed down the moment they came into contact with the extreme cold. The green flames on their eyes flickered wildly, but they were eventually covered by a thick layer of blue ice and frozen in mid-air, maintaining the posture they had before shooting lasers, like a bizarre ice sculpture!

The very next second they were frozen—

"A divine aura!"

Despite the excruciating pain in his shoulder, Erwin unleashed the remaining holy energy with all his might!

A gentle yet supremely purifying golden halo spread rapidly outwards from him like ripples on water!

The halo swept over the frozen fel eyes, and these already frozen creatures met their nemesis. In the golden halo, they quietly disintegrated, turning into the purest light spots and ice dust, and were completely annihilated.

With the crisis temporarily averted, the wings of light behind Elwin dimmed, and his divine form could no longer be maintained, slowly dissipating.

He landed back on the ground, slightly out of breath, the wound on his left shoulder still throbbing.

Stella supported him, looking at his wound with concern.

"Are you okay?"

"Small injury."

Erwin shook his head and cast the Word of Tranquility on himself, and his wounds healed rapidly.

His gaze remained fixed on Imorthal, who was now even more enraged by the destruction of the Fel Eye.

"This guy is more troublesome than I expected. However, I think I've found its weakness..."
