Chapter 1143: 1143
The temperature of demon blood was lower than human blood . The two types of blood mixed with each other and seeped into the ground, giving it a pungent stench .

Nailisi charged all the way, and casualties from both sides were almost equal .
However, Nailisi felt heartache . The two supreme demons were severely injured and had to be pulled from the battlefield, and the rest of the demons died . It was the first time she fought a battle like that, where the tall, hulking demons were inferior to human opponents . If it was not due to her side having the advantage of numbers, the casualties would be a lot more severe .
Sika felt how frustrating it was to be overpowered because of level difference for the first time as well . While the Magical Element Tower remained impregnable, having the fire dragon coiled around the tower meant that the people inside were unable to attack their enemies .
But then again, it was fortunate that they had enough level nine professionals on their side to keep the level ten sorcerer busy . Eleanor’s arrows were a great threat to the Grand Duke’s men . Archers lacked in defense, but their capacity at offense was on par with mages . If they were equipped with decent equipment, it was easier to enhance an archer’s attacks than a mage’s .
Sika dared not let Eleanor charge outside . That was one mistake they made . If Eleanor was in the air several thousand meters above the ground, their enemies might not have been able to keep up with her .
Grand Duke Jatan looked at the magic array and found the mages had finished building it . Light shimmered from the array, and a small territorial space appeared . The ones in the tower would not make it through the territory to help their own fighting in the canyon .
“Come with me . ”
Grand Duke Jatan called his mages and left only the level ten sorcerer to man the magic array . The other warriors followed the Grand Duke .
The Grand Duke took to the air and brandished his own weapon: a blade curved into a half-circle . The blade was over four meters long and looked incredibly awkward .
The Grand Duke stood high above the canyon and laughed . He swung the blade, and the blade’s aura shot towards the mountains at the flanks and killed the demons one by one .

The demons that were hit by the blade’s aura were shredded . Blood splattered everywhere and flowed down the cliffs, staining them blue .
Nailisi was incredibly frustrated, but she dared not take on the Grand Duke . The Grand Duke had a lot of people by his side, the most notable being a level ten true might and a level ten sorcerer . Nailisi was no match for him . She was only able to open the purgatory of the fallen and stand before its entrance, summoning the Shackles of the Fallen .
The Shackles of the Fallen were connected to the altar and were unable to be summoned entirely from the purgatory . The altar’s power was incredible in the purgatory . However, the 24 chains had a limited area of attack when they were used outside the purgatory . Furthermore, the most powerful attack only worked when used against believers .
There were some fallen believers of the goddess in the purgatory, but Nailisi did not mind it anymore . She summoned hundreds of them and had them stand at the entrance of the purgatory, blocking the entrance of the canyon .
The believers were translucent, and their legs looked squishy . They were useful for moving around in the water, but hardly useful on land .
Grand Duke Jatan was curious when he saw a huge demon bring weird creatures and block his way . He slowed down with the slaughter and saw the demon use short sword, which seemed like less than a dagger in relation to her size, to cut off the head of a golden grand swordmaster .
The slash was incredibly quick . The blade held in her hand was never seen in battle, and the golden grand swordmaster was unable to defend against it . His head was cut off by the Sword of Rules .
Grand Duke Jatan was furious as he swung his curved blade downward . Slashes of aura shot at Nailisi . The attacks were unleashed with the power stored within the blade, making it look easy . However, the attacks were deceivingly powerful . Nailisi took control of the chains and used them to deflect the aura attacks . Her Grey Memory continued to take out one warrior after another .
The Grey Memory had a range of over 100 meters, which was a common attack range of mages .
The Shackles of the Fallen were made of materials comparable to godly items . None of the Grand Duke’s attacks was able to tear through the chains and hit Nailisi . Nailisi held four weapons in her four hands: the Grey Memory, the Sword of Rules, a square semi-godly shield, and a flail that Saleen crafted for her . It was a replica of the Winged Skull’s weapon, but was used for close quarters combat . The head was over half a meter in diameter, enabling it to be used like a small shield .

No one in the air was able to do anything to her while she was protected by the Shackles of the Fallen . The chains shot out for tens of meters from the purgatory of the fallen, protecting Nailisi .
The Grand Duke hesitated . What is Saleen doing? And what is the demon is working so hard to protect?
A huge fireball descended from above, but it was the work of the level ten sorcerer at the Grand Duke’s side . Almost every mage knew Fireball, but few used it as their main skill . Visit on our vipnovel . com
The Fireball spell had three fireballs chained together, each having a diameter of over a meter . Nailisi sensed the incoming danger and lashed out with the Grey Memory . All three fireballs blew up in the air after one powerful thrust . Nailisi took the opportunity to prep the Dragon Crystal Needle in her mouth .
She charged into the flames and headed straight for the sorcerer .
The Grand Duke saw the demon left the protection of the chains and got excited . He charged forward with his blade and brought his blade down from above at Nailisi’s head .
Nailisi had three heads, and from the Grand Duke’s perspective, she would survive with one of the heads cut off, and she would serve as a decent servant .
Nailisi’s shield went up when they clashed . The curved blade made sparks, and Nailisi felt her entire arm go numb . The Grand Duke was not having a good time either . He had used all his strength, but a demon’s strength was inherently greater than a human, but both were level ten and his technique was more refined, which meant that he had an advantage .
However, the shield absorbed most of the impact from the force stored within the curved blade .
Grand Duke Jatan shouted, “take this thing alive . I’m going to make a slave out of it!”

Nailisi’s devil form was tremendously frightening, but it looked more beautiful than any treasure the Grand Duke could think of . It was a demon capable of taking a full-powered hit from him and had high intelligence . When fully subjugated, it would serve as a spokesperson of his clan’s power . The Grants possessed power that seemed to surpass the royal family . If someone like him, a Grand Duke who had lost the support of others, did not have true power to bring to the table, he would be replaced .
Nailisi gritted her teeth and charged again . She wanted to get close enough to kill a level ten professional with the Dragon Crystal Needle . The needle was so sharp that only people armed with godly item-level equipment would be able to resist it . Regardless of how powerful a human’s skill was, there was no way any skill would block the needle .
The level ten mage shot another six fireballs before the level nine ones were able to act . The six fireballs were arranged in a ring as they flew at Nailisi . Their flight was unpredictable, but they were not flying very quickly . However, Nailisi’s Grey Memory was no longer able to lock onto the fireballs .
Only one of the six fireballs was conjured out of pure fire magic . The other five were made through elemental conversion . It was the first time Nailisi had seen a mage who was more adept at elemental conversion than Saleen . The six fireballs came behind Nailisi . She had two more arms on her back, so she quickly turned the shield around and protected her body . The black energy from the shield absorbed all six of the huge fireballs .
Nailisi was unable to feel the arm that was holding the shield, as if it had been burned . The fireballs banged on the shield, throwing Nailisi to the ground . If she had not been protected by the shield, the fireballs would have burned half of her body off as they turned around her .
The shield flew off her hand and the fireballs disappeared . The sorcerer was startled, but he pounced in her direction . She was not his target; he was coming for the shield .
He had to get his hands on the powerful piece of equipment! His judgment was sound in determining that the shield was not meant for warriors, but for casters of spells .
Nailisi was unable to use the shield’s full power . If it had been a mage or a holy master using it, no level ten magic would be able to do anything against the wielder of the shield .
Grand Duke Jatan laughed out loud and went after Nailisi, who was on the ground . He took out a 30-meter-wide net and threw it with one hand, spreading all over Nailisi .
He had captured many magic beasts with that piece of equipment . Even level nine magic beasts would not be able to muster any strength once the net touched them . The power of rules the net surpassed territorial powers .
Nailisi looked at the Grand Duke with frustrated eyes . She sped up and dove into the mass of chains below .
The net unexpectedly dove into the chains with Nailisi, wrapping her up securely . Nailisi was thoroughly frightened as she found her powers dissipated when she was wrapped in the net . The 24 chains retreated into the collection of purgatories after the power controlling them was no longer detected . The portal closed and the thing holding the purgatories dropped to the floor .
There were only around 200 fallen believers who were caught unprepared .
Grand Duke Jatan landed and took the shield . Nailisi was furious, but all of her powers had been bound by the rules of the net, making her incapable of lifting a finger .
The Grand Duke’s curved blade flashed with brilliant light . One swing and the fallen believers around her were swept clean . Their blue blood stained the ground, but they smelled very nice .
Nailisi attempted to change form, but luoluokaluos were not invincible . She remained in her devil form .
The Grand Duke landed when there were no other enemies around him . He put the huge blade away and pulled out a small bottle . The bottle was made of crystal and it was filled with a pink liquid . He walked up to the net . Nailisi’s body felt squishy and she was unable to lift her head up . The Grand Duke looked at Nailisi in the eye . “Submit to me, and I shall conquer the entire mainland with you by my side!”
