Chapter 261: WRONG CHAPTERS！！ DO NOT PURCHASE！！！



Deep within the Demon Abyss.

Owen, the Archdemon, and Madelyn leapt down from the bow of the Hellfire Warship, landing on the abyssal ground covered in black-red vines.

“This is the Immortal Devilvine? What a terrifying aura!” Madelyn’s face grew serious.

Following the Immortal Devilvine with her gaze, she saw countless vines rooted in the magma, intertwining endlessly with no visible end in sight.

“The Immortal Devilvine had not been active before and remained dormant. But a few days ago, for unknown reasons, it began preventing anyone from approaching.”

The Archdemon turned her head and looked at Owen. “The entrance to the deeper part of the Demon Abyss is located beneath the roots of the Immortal Devilvine. We have to eradicate it. From here on, it’s up to you…”

Before she could finish speaking, as if sensing the approach of a living presence, the previously motionless Immortal Devilvine suddenly sprang to life, climbing up from the ground and the surrounding rock walls.

It then shot towards the three of them like countless arrows loosed from taut bows, piercing through the void with explosive sonic booms.

Dark Vortex!

The Archdemon formed a seal with one hand, and a series of hurricane-like black vortices appeared around her, swallowing up the incoming vines and grinding them into powder.

However, as soon as these vines were shredded, they quickly transformed into a dark, indestructible aura and reabsorbed into the Immortal Devilvine.

Seeing this, even though Owen had anticipated it, he still felt a headache coming on.

The Immortal Devilvine’s attack was frighteningly powerful. Had the Archdemon not acted in time, even Owen would have struggled to hold his ground.

“Let me try!”

Madelyn, unwilling to admit defeat, retrieved a staff from her storage ring. Fiery elements danced around her, coalescing into a blazing fireball the size of a millstone, which she hurled at the Immortal Devilvine.

Boom!

The moment the fireball touched the Immortal Devilvine, it exploded violently, and the raging flames, imbued with the intent to incinerate all, clung to the vine’s surface, burning persistently.

However, the expected elemental suppression did not occur. Instead, the raging fire seemed to serve as nourishment for the Immortal Devilvine, which absorbed it rapidly and grew even thicker and more robust.

With even greater speed, it shot towards Madelyn.

A look of panic flashed across Madelyn’s delicate face. She hadn’t expected her magic not only to fail but to make the Immortal Devilvine stronger.

Fortunately, Owen was prepared for this. The Godslayer Staff transformed in his hand, becoming the Supreme Sword, which he swung in a swift arc.

A streak of dark gold sword energy tore through the air, forming a long, narrow line that shredded the attacking vines to pieces.

This time, the shredded vines did not recondense into the indestructible aura but completely disintegrated and vanished.

“It worked!”

The Archdemon’s eyes gleamed with excitement.

She had tried countless methods to deal with this Devilvine before, but none had been effective. She had always been blocked from reaching the true depths of the Demon Abyss.

Fortunately, the ancient legends were true: the Immortal Devilvine was a monstrous creature planted by the ancient Dark God King, and only the King’s staff could truly destroy it.

“Cover me. I’ll go deep into the Devilvine and sever its roots!”

The Archdemon spoke decisively.

Owen nodded and looked at Madelyn. “Stay close to the Archdemon and be careful. I’ll be right back.”

With that, and under Madelyn’s worried gaze, he charged toward the dense cluster of vines.

The closer he got, the hotter the air became, as if silver needles were piercing his lungs. At the same time, the Devilvine grew even denser, weaving together so tightly it made his scalp tingle.

Sensing the approach of a living being, the vines surged toward Owen like a torrential river, each one exuding an aura of frenzied terror.

The void around him shattered, leaving it riddled with cracks.

Yet, as the vines neared Owen, they seemed to recognize the aura of the Supreme Sword and hesitated, their aggressive energy diminishing significantly.

Seeing this, Owen felt a bit more at ease. The dark golden light of the Supreme Sword flared brilliantly, and streaks of sword energy shot out, tearing apart the approaching vines.

However, the Immortal Devilvine’s vines were overwhelmingly dense. Even though Owen’s Supreme Sword could shred them, at this pace, reaching the core to sever its roots would take far too long.

He might even end up exhausting his mana and being overwhelmed by the Devilvine.

“I have to finish this quickly!”

Realizing that entering the Demon Abyss was only the beginning, Owen took a deep breath, and a third of the Slaying God Formation appeared around him.

Dark golden light flowed, forming a complex six-pointed star array that rotated slowly. Any vine that came into contact with the formation instantly exploded into pulp, splattering in all

directions.

With the Slaying God Formation’s protection, Owen’s speed surged!

Behind him, the Archdemon and Madelyn weren’t idle either.

The Archdemon summoned a crimson long blade, emitting a nauseating smell of blood, as if fresh blood was flowing along its edge, radiating a bone-chilling murderous aura.

The blade was a manifestation of her power, imbued with the essence of greed and killing

intent.

The distant vines that approached were shredded by the blade’s aura. Although the vines quickly reformed into the indestructible aura and reassembled into the Immortal Devilvine, the brief delay allowed her to protect Owen as he pushed forward.

Madelyn, knowing her own strength was insufficient, chose to channel a portion of her mana directly into Owen’s body, aiding his recovery.

With their coordinated effort, they soon spotted a towering rock wall. On the wall was a massive flower, swaying gently even without wind, its smile almost mocking.

Countless indestructible vines sprouted from beneath this flower, like its tentacles.

“That’s the core of the Immortal Devilvine. Destroy it, and we’ll be able to access the lowest layer of the Demon Abyss, which is a world unto itself. Only by passing through here can we

enter it.”

Having reached this point alongside Owen, the Archdemon’s expression turned even more

solemn.

She had once reached this place before but had been forced to retreat under the Devilvine’s relentless assaults and regeneration.

Now, whether they could find her sister’s whereabouts depended on Owen.

As she looked at Owen, he took a deep breath and gripped the hilt of the Supreme Sword tightly. With a powerful swing, he slashed at the massive flower.

Supreme Sword!

The Godslayer Staff’s ultimate strike!

The giant flower trembled slightly, instinctively sensing the danger.

But there was nowhere to escape. It could only weave more vines in front of itself, trying to neutralize the oncoming sword energy.

However, as Owen’s mastery of the Godslayer Staff deepened and his understanding of the

Supreme Sword grew, the vines, though capable of diminishing the sword energy, couldn’t

fully negate its impact.

Ultimately, the sword energy tore into the giant flower.

Compared to the flower, Owen’s sword energy seemed small. But the closer it got, the more

violent its fluctuations became, like unstable explosives.

When it finally touched the petals, it erupted violently. The razor-sharp sword energy penetrated the flower’s stem, causing it to wilt slightly.

However, this attack also provoked a frenzied reaction from the surrounding vines, which

lashed at Owen like whips, shattering the void and leaving behind a trail of black afterimages.

With the Immortal Devilvine now in a state of frenzy, Owen pressed on, aiming his sword energy at the newly formed cracks, widening the fractures.

The Archdemon and Madelyn faced increased pressure, but they could see the flower’s stem

weakening.

This was merely the Immortal Devilvine’s last struggle.

Owen did not dare to relax for a second. He couldn’t withstand a direct confrontation with the Devilvine’s assault, forcing him to weave and dodge, striking only when an opening

presented itself.

Boom!

Under Owen’s relentless barrage of sword energy, the bottom of the Demon Abyss seemed to experience a massive earthquake. The ground trembled violently.

The Immortal Devilvine persisted for a few more moments, but with its stem severed, the

vines attacking the trio fell limply to the ground.

All the previous ferocity was gone.

As the Immortal Devilvine was extinguished, the barrier behind it began to show signs of weakening, and a massive stone archway gradually came into view before the three of them.
