In the recent fight, John had successfully eliminated two demon generals summoned by the Corruptor.

By defeating these two demon generals, John gained all the dark power they possessed.

Utilizing the potent force of the Book of the Astral Realm, John converted this dark power into dark spells and hurled them back at the Corruptor.

The Corruptor had not anticipated being attacked with dark magic in a battle against an adventurer like John.

After all, as a Devil, he should be the one wielding dark spells against his foes.

Moreover, the dark spells unleashed by John were even more powerful than those the Corruptor, as a Devil, could muster, causing the Corruptor's morale to utterly collapse.

After resisting John's dark magic attack, the Corruptor roared furiously, "You wretched insect, how dare you use dark magic to attack a Devil! Do you not realize your arrogance? Do you not know that all Devils represent immensely powerful dark power?! Are you unaware that provoking any Devil will lead to a most tragic end for you?!"

Facing the Corruptor's words, John's expression remained unchanged, seeing the Corruptor's threats as mere bluster.

With the help of two demon generals, the Corruptor had failed to defeat John.

So how could he possibly hope to swiftly defeat John now, on his own? On the contrary, John felt he had the upper hand.

Although he had used up all the divine scrolls given to him by the Naga Queen, he still had some he had saved up in his pocket.

These divine scrolls could provide him with an extra margin of error in the upcoming battle.

Even without these scrolls, John believed that with the powerful capabilities of the Book of the Astral Realm, victory was within his grasp.

Moreover, he could once again harness the power of the Mystery Eye Gemstone.

In previous battles, it was with the power of the Mystery Eye Gemstone that he had successfully eliminated the two demon generals aiding the Corruptor.

"Stop boasting. Don't you realize I've battled other demon generals before? Those generals and Devils couldn't defeat me. If you meet the Devils I've defeated before, you should have a good chat with them. They certainly wouldn't think, like you do, that they could completely destroy me."

John spoke these words calmly, with a slight smile.

This attitude, of course, only served to infuriate the Corruptor even more, as he had never encountered such a composed adversary from the Order Faction before.

Although the Corruptor was a Devil, he had never engaged in battle with any of the deities from the Order Faction.

This was because most of the Order Faction's deities were severely weakened in battles against the Dark Emperor and the Mystery Saint.

After successfully sealing the Dark Emperor and banishing the Mystery Saint, most of the Order Faction's deities chose to recuperate.

They only occasionally bestowed their power upon members of the Order Faction they deemed worthy.

This is why most Devils believed their power to be among the top tier, as they were all fragments of dark power.

Before the Dark Emperor was fully sealed, the dark power possessed by these Devils was considered insignificant, leaving them unqualified for direct combat with the deities of the Order Faction. freew(e)bnovel.com

While calmly responding to the Corruptor's words, John was also unleashing his full power in attack.

The god-tier spells John employed didn't inflict significant damage on the Corruptor.

As one of the Devils with the strongest defenses, the Corruptor could ignore most physical attacks.

Even when faced with Holy Light spells, which are particularly effective against dark power, he was able to withstand them.

Facing such an opponent, John needed to adopt more suitable tactics.

He chose to use the power of the Book of the Astral Realm to gradually seal away the Corruptor's dark power.

Besides creating spatial barriers, the Book of the Astral Realm could also create conceptual barriers.

While these conceptual barriers might not pose a significant threat to the Corruptor, they could gradually strip away his dark power.

As the Corruptor's dark power weakened, John's attacks started to inflict substantial damage on him.

As the battle wore on, the Corruptor could feel his condition deteriorating rapidly.

He suddenly realized he shouldn't have underestimated John's strength.

Had he known about John's formidable capabilities, he wouldn't have faced John's attacks alone.

The Corruptor had refrained from aiding the Flame Knight because he believed he had the power to defeat John by himself.

If he had joined forces with the Flame Knight, everyone would eventually credit the Flame Knight for defeating John, as the Flame Knight was stronger in direct combat.

Regretful as the Corruptor might be, he found himself without options.

He had to fight to the bitter end; even the thought of fleeing was impossible under the circumstances.

John had combined the power of the Book of the Astral Realm with his Divine Skill, Nether Fortress, effectively sealing off the entire battle area.

The only outcomes were either John completely defeating and resealing the Corruptor, or the Corruptor utterly defeating John, causing John to lose a significant amount of experience.

With no way out for either side, they were both committed to fighting with all their might.

Towards the end of the battle, the Corruptor had exhausted all his dark power.

He decided to eliminate all the surrounding demons, absorbing their dark power into himself.

At this point, the Corruptor's form had grown immensely large, akin to the size of a small city.

If other members of the Order Faction were present alongside John, they would witness the Corruptor's massive transformation.

Determined to make a final stand, the Corruptor's significant increase in size was a strategy to unleash the last vestiges of his dark power in a desperate bid for victory.

"I will show you just how powerful a Devil can be! You will pay dearly for your arrogance and foolishness!"

The Corruptor's roar echoed, and John could feel the overwhelming surge of dark spells being unleashed simultaneously by the Corruptor.

The force generated by these dark spells posed a significant threat, even to John, who wielded the Book of the Astral Realm.

John had no intention of withstanding the Corruptor's attacks with brute force alone.

Well aware that his adventurer class wasn't designed for head-

on confrontations, John knew he had to dodge the direct attacks as much as possible.

Without hesitation, John sealed the Book of the Astral Realm and took out the Mystery Eye Gemstone, combining its power with his Divine Skill, Abyssal Prison.

Using the spatial traversal ability of the Mystery Eye Gemstone, John instantly moved outside the seal.

Although this action significantly reduced his health points, it allowed him to completely evade the Corruptor's full-on assault.

The Corruptor, a Devil, evidently hadn't anticipated that John could instantly move out of the seal.

The Corruptor's barrage of dark magic attacks all hit the seal, posing no threat to John whatsoever.

Having exhausted nearly all of his dark power in this assault, the Corruptor was no longer able to continue the fight against John.

Seeing that his opponent's attack had failed, John deactivated the power of the Mystery Eye Gemstone and returned to the interior of the seal without its enhancement.

"Now you should have no ability to continue fighting me. You've run out of dark power, so it's time to seal you away completely!" John declared.

Transforming into a beam composed entirely of energy, John converted all his remaining MP into deal arts damage.

This attack was incredibly powerful, and the Corruptor, having depleted most of his dark power, couldn't evade it.

With this strike, John utterly vanquished the Corruptor.

However, John was aware that a Devil could never be truly destroyed; the Corruptor was merely resealed once more.
