Philip's black combat boots pounded hard against the stone steps as he charged up Blood Sanctum.A massive surge of martial energy exploded from his body, accompanied by a furious roar. With a thunderous boom, he drew back his fist, ready to smash it down onto the building from above.However, a searing wave of energy shot out from within the Sanctum first, and it collided directly with Philip's fist.The overwhelming shockwave exploded outward.Consequently, Philip grunted, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.As the shockwave dissipated, he locked eyes with his opponent before him.It was the Emperor of Soraine, Alejandro Ruiz! Elio scanned the battlefield in a single sweep, and then the killing began without warning, without any buildup at all. He moved instantly, his hands forming rapid seals.Soon, a massive circular symbol descended from the sky above. It radiated a mysterious and overwhelming presence.A thunderous crash echoed out as the symbol slammed down o

Andrew said coldly, "Just realizing that now? Too bad for you, it's too late!"Nyx hurriedly called out, "Andrew, don't kill Arya!"Andrew continued his relentless assault as Arya, like a candle flickering in the wind, struggled desperately to defend herself. In the end, she spat out a mouthful of blood.A surge of fury deepened the darkness around her in an instant.Andrew said icily, "Nyx, you can't persuade her. She has already become a slave to the darkness!"Arya howled in agony, "I'm not a slave! I don't want this… I don't! But I can't break free at all!"Andrew replied flatly, "If you can't break free, then let me end this for you. Arya, my target right now is the Vampire Queen. If you continue to get in my way, then despite our past, I won't hold back."Arya's face twisted with pain as she struggled. Suddenly, she roared, "Andrew, just kill me! Do it!"The moment she finished shouting, her eyes turned blood red, and a sinister, dark aura reappeared around her body. Grip

"Kneel and submit at my feet!" The Vampire Queen threw her head back and laughed, her voice thick with a sinister aura.The fog in Andrew's mind grew heavier by the second, and he knew he could not let her keep controlling him like this. With a sudden burst of clarity, he swung his greatsword in a horizontal slash.The blood threads were severed instantly.Andrew's mind took a sharp backlash, and he let out a low roar as blood sprayed from his mouth. Nonetheless, at least he had broken free of the Vampire Queen's control.High upon the throne, the Vampire Queen's expression turned cold and vicious. "You dare resist? You're dead!"As she spoke, she reached out toward Andrew from afar.Andrew's body immediately began to lift off the ground against his will. At the last moment, a figure suddenly descended from above, forcefully inserting itself between him and the Vampire Queen.Andrew shouted with joy, "Shiloh!"Shiloh's lips pressed tightly together, and she glanced back at Andr

The Vampire Queen and Shiloh clashed in midair, locked in a direct collision of power. The cataclysmic powers collided, tearing through everything around them.The Blood Sanctum began to collapse piece by piece. Soon, the stone walls, the foundation, and even the entire dark mountain started to rise into the air before being vaporized.Nothing was left behind.The powerful fighters battling outside were all injured, and every one of them froze in shock. They retreated again and again, flying into the air with fear in their eyes.On the ground, the remaining Holtrien warriors scrambled down the mountain, fleeing for their lives."Shiloh, you can't save him. I want you to watch helplessly as he dies by my hand. Get a good taste of how I felt when Valerius betrayed me all those years ago," the Vampire Queen said with a savage laugh.With her maniacal laughter echoing around them, those blood vessels plunged into Andrew's neck. The tubes instantly turned red as his blood was violentl

In the very last moment, as Andrew stood on the brink of death, he had gained Shiloh's power as well. It was the Greene family's world-destroying force, a high-level ability that had once been strong enough to perish together with the Vampire Queen.The black beam of light collided head-on with Andrew's soaring strike.A blinding brilliance exploded outward in every direction, like a storm of falling starlight. Even the three great emperors could not keep their eyes open against it.Within that halo of light, unseen by anyone, Andrew's great sword carried him straight into the Vampire Queen's chest.Her face, twisted into the hideous form of the original vampire, froze in confusion. Then came pain, and finally disbelief."How could this be…" Her body began dissipating strand by strand, converting into energy that dispersed into the air before suddenly converging toward Andrew's body.The Vampire Queen's face finally showed shock and terror. "An omni-constitution! You can actual
