Chapter 436: Rapid Pursuit, No Way to Escape

Dave immediately nodded after hearing what Vincent said. He then began to move quickly through the space tunnel, carefully searching for Theodore’s whereabouts.

Vincent’s gaze swept over the direction where Titan and Quinn had escaped. Vincent, who could communicate with heaven and earth, was able to immediately determine the positions of the two apostles. Vincent leaped upward and activated space jump!

Titan’s movements underground was relatively horizontal, which meant that he could not return to the surface in a short period of time. Quinn, on the other hand, chose the simplest path and escaped straight to the surface. Thus, he became Vincent’s first target.

However, Vincent did not choose to catch up to Quinn directly. Instead, he used space jump to reach the top of the rock layer. He soon arrived at the natural karst cave that he and Dave entered at the beginning.

The karst cave was located below the ground. It was also directly above the tunnel where the battle had taken place earlier. If Quinn wanted to return to the ground, he would definitely have to pass through the natural karst cave.

Therefore, Vincent could just camp there and wait for Quinn to deliver himself to his doorstep!

After arriving at the karst cave again, Vincent looked at the white bones embedded in the surrounding walls and sighed helplessly. He said softly, “All of you are elves who have gone astray. Because of Gajero’s greed and Jessica’s betrayal, you ended up dying miserably underground. Although I can’t save your fates, I can help you return to the earth and hope that you will rest in peace. I hope you can protect the elves and regain control of your own fate!”

With that, Vincent raised his left hand and snapped his fingers. A flaming dragon instantly flew out of his hand and ignited all the bones embedded in the surrounding walls.

When the entire karst cave turned into a furnace of flames, the flaming dragon raised its head and roared into the sky. It then burrowed into the tunnel that was filled with corpses.

All the bones of the Dark Elves that had died tragically underground were all burned up by the flames. They turned into wisps of pitch-black ashes and scattered onto the ground. At the same time, the entire karst cave had been roasted into a fiery red space.

The high temperature and extremely thin air had transformed the entire karst cave into a hopeless situation where no living beings could survive!

However, Vincent’s entire body was currently spiritualized by fire, so he did not need to breathe. Moreover, the high temperature around him had no effect on him at all.

In the next second, a black figure suddenly darted into the karst cave from underground. The moment his body rubbed against the ground, all of his clothes were ignited, and his entire body was burning with raging flames just like Vincent who was spiritualized by fire. The figure stood in the karst cave in a daze.

The figure who was staring blankly at Vincent was Quinn, who was fleeing in a panic!

Quinn looked at Vincent and roared indignantly, “How can you be here? I clearly lost you!”

He could not understand why Vincent would block his escape route in advance. He did not understand why Vincent would only catch up to him when the three of them were clearly running separate ways!

Vincent smiled slightly and said, “Didn’t you want to take revenge for your Wheel of Hell? Didn’t I just give you a chance? Don’t even think about escaping again. Your speed is not enough, and you only have one chance to attack. Don’t waste it, because in the next second, you might end up like Darren!”

Quinn narrowed his eyes. He raised his hand and threw two daggers at Vincent.

Vincent shook his head with a disdainful look and swung his Return Journey of the Dead. The not-so-sharp blade struck the two flying daggers causing them to break into countless metal pieces.

At the same time the two daggers flew outward, Quinn had taken out two long swords from his storage ring. He spun them and stabbed them toward Vincent’s heart.

Although Vincent managed to destroy the two daggers, his chest was cut wide open due to the two swords.

However, he did not react in the slightest. He continued to maintain his smile and allowed the two swords to sink into his fire spiritualized chest.

Quinn stopped in front of Vincent and watched the swords in his hands turn fiery red in Vincent’s chest until they melted completely. In the end, there were only two sword hilts left in his hands.

However, Quinn did not have the time to feel fearful. He kept exclaiming in his heart that it was a close call. This was because if he had not stopped in time, his entire body would have struck Vincent’s chest. He would then be burned to ashes by the flames on his body.

Quinn realized that Vincent’s fire spiritualized body could ignore any physical attacks. That meant that no matter how many weapons he took out, he would not be able to harm Vincent in the slightest.

If he wanted to defeat Vincent, he would have to use a powerful spell from the Demon World!

“Netherworld Magic Sword!”

Quinn immediately bit his finger and swung it fiercely in the air. Black blood flew out from his fingertip, but it did not slide to the ground. Instead, a pitch-black thin sword appeared in the air.

This sword was only two fingers wide, and it was formed using the demon blood in Quinn’s body. Not only was it abnormally strong, but there was also a powerful demon aura attached to the sword. As long as it struck Vincent, the effect would be no different from being struck by a demon spell!

Vincent did not hesitate at all after seeing this. He immediately held the hilt of his knife with both hands and took the lead to slash at Quinn.

Quinn quickly raised his sword to block the attack. However, he was jolted back by the tremendous force from Vincent’s weapon.

After Quinn stopped moving, he thought that he had understood Vincent’s fighting style. He said with a smug look on his face, “So, it’s a useless fighting style that relies on brute force! Although you’re strong, you don’t know that the essence of a weapon is technique. I’ll use pure techniques so that you can feel the pain of the demonic aura attacking your heart!”

Vincent only twisted his neck, motioning for Quinn to continue attacking him.

Quinn instantly turned into an afterimage, flying up and down around Vincent’s body. He continued to use the black sword light to attack Vincent’s weaknesses.

However, what Quinn did not expect was that Vincent, who only relied on pure brute force in his mind, was actually able to block all of his attacks. Moreover, he seemed to be so relaxed and at ease. It was as if he was doing a very simple thing!

Quinn knew clearly in his heart that this was the best attack he had. If Vincent was able to block an attack of this level, then he would really have no way to defeat him.

“So, this is the technique you were talking about. Unfortunately, speed is not the whole point of an attack. I’ll let you see my technique next!”

Vincent teased with a face full of ridicule. He then stopped defending and slowly put down his right hand that was holding the knife. He pressed the tip of his knife gently against the ground.

When Quinn saw that Vincent had suddenly withdrawn his knife, he thought that his chance had come. He thrust his sword toward Vincent’s chest.

As long as the sword struck Vincent, even if it could not kill him, a large amount of demonic energy would still rush into his body. This would then prevent him from chasing after him for the time being!

However, what Quinn did not expect was that before he could even pierce through Vincent’s chest with his sword, streams of blade aura that could cut through space suddenly appeared around Vincent’s body. The blade aura was like huge waves that were stirred up by a tornado, slamming in all directions!

“Splitting the heavens and earth!” shouted Vincent.

The blade aura instantly flew outward and slapped Quinn, who was in the air in front of him. It sent him flying directly toward the fiery-red karst cave wall.

However, before Quinn could even reach the rock wall, his entire body had been cut into tiny pieces by the blade aura.

A faint shattering sound was heard from Quinn’s wrist. Vincent once again revealed a smile. This was because he had found Quinn’s demon core and shattered it successfully!

Quinn, who was constantly retreating in the air, stared at Vincent with wide eyes. Before he could even let out an indignant roar, he instantly exploded into a ball of pitch-black demonic aura.

Without the slightest hesitation, Vincent took out the Cup of Fate and refined all the demonic aura scattered in the karst cave into pure psionic power.

Unfortunately, Vincent’s psionic power reserves, which were ten times more than the psionic power reserves of a powerhouse of the same level, were currently at full capacity. Therefore, the psionic power he received from Quinn was temporarily useless and could only be stored in the Cup of Fate. Vincent could only use it to replenish his energy when he was weak.

After taking care of Quinn, Vincent let out a soft sigh and walked forward to pick up the three storage rings that had fallen to the ground. He turned around and opened the space tunnel. He then chased in the direction where Titan had escaped.

Titan, who was currently fleeing in the rock stratum, was in a frenzied state. He did not dare to stop for even a moment. He did not even dare to think about where Vincent was. He only knew that if he was distracted for even a second, it was possible for Vincent to catch up to him.

Before he could be sure that he was truly safe, he would never stop running. He would continue to flee with all his might.

After running for an unknown amount of time, Titan finally slowed down. He took a few deep breaths and raised his head to look up.

Titan thought confidently,?“I have already run far enough. Now that I am starting to return to the ground, no one should be able to catch up to me!”

He could not help but praise his own wisdom in his heart.

Just as Titan was distracted, Vincent’s voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

“You’re running pretty fast, but it’s a pity. You shouldn’t have stopped!”

Titan’s eyes were wide open with shock. His heart was filled with sorrow as he knew that he was definitely going to die!

Despite the intense unwillingness in his heart, Titan decided to turn his head to look behind him. Even if he died, he wanted to see how Vincent had managed to catch up to him!

Just when Titan turned his body freely in the soil to look behind him, he discovered that there was no sign of Vincent. There was only a door leading to another space. However, there was no light in it. It was impossible for him to determine what was contained within.

At that moment, a golden arm stretched out from within the space door and grabbed Titan’s throat tightly. Similar to pulling a radish from the ground, Titan was dragged into the space door from the soil.
