As Vincent spoke, a strange light suddenly appeared in his hands and enveloped both the scepter and the Return Journey of the Dead. The light merged the two weapons into one at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This was the first time Vincent had displayed the ability to fuse weapons in front of others. As the situation was urgent, he had no other way. At the same time, he wanted to use this magical method to intimidate Lionel.

In the blink of an eye, only a long black and purple blade remained in Vincent’s hand!

The blade was sharp and suffused with a demonic purple light. The weight of the blade had increased by a lot and its appearance was in line with Vincent’s expectations.

At the same time, the information regarding the weapon appeared in front of Vincent’s eyes once again.

Weapon: Hell’s Blade

Level: X-Class weapon

Evolution Progress: 20%

Weapon Attributes

Attribute 1: Hell’s Blade can evolve by devouring psionic weapons.

Attribute 2: Hell’s Blade has fused with the core of a world and has the potential to be upgraded to the Undead World. At that time, it can become the key to opening the Undead World.

Attribute 3: Before Hell’s Blade is upgraded, it can still use a portion of the power of the world. When the user draws its blade, it can summon the Purgatory of Nature, which has a range of 100 meters. Within the domain of the Purgatory of Nature, the user can control a portion of the power of the world.

Attribute 4: Hell’s Blade can condense the power of a world. At the same time, it loses all attack attributes. However, every time the blade is swung, it will be enhanced by the power of the world, bringing with it a huge amount of power.

Additional Abilities

Ability 1: Curse of Disgust. It can cast curses on any target but only has a 20% success rate, causing the target to lose all power within 24 hours.

Ability 2: Supreme Edge. The wound cut by the scepter cannot be healed. At the same time, it can trigger the Curse of Disgust by 100%.

Ability 3: Domain Key. It can make minor adjustments to other individuals’ domains. It has 100% right to modify the user’s own domain.

Vincent looked at the newly upgraded weapon. He was very satisfied with all its attributes. Not only did it retain and strengthen the original abilities of the Return Journey of the Dead, but it had also perfectly inherited the three special abilities of the scepter. The two weapons had complemented each other perfectly.

The Supreme Edge ability had canceled out the original blunt blade of the Return Journey of the Dead. It also ensured that an enemy’s wound could not be healed. It could also activate the Curse of Disgust at the same time. It was truly a god-level close combat ability!

The Domain Key allowed Vincent to have 100% modification rights to the attributes of his own domain. It also allowed Vincent to perfectly control the Purgatory of Nature. This would make his combat ability even stronger!

Vincent was happy. He turned to look at his side and found that Justin and Lionel had long stopped arguing about whether to let him go. Instead, they were looking at him in shock.

Lionel raised his hand and pointed at Vincent. His whole body trembled as he said, “That is the Ultimate Evil Lord’s favorite weapon. Where, where did it go?”

Vincent just waved the Return Journey of the Dead. He did not say anything else.

Justin seemed to have guessed the answer and could not help but swallow his saliva nervously. Although he had built a relationship with Vincent, he could not help but be afraid of the Ultimate Evil Lord.

It was natural for creatures to want to escape from the Ultimate Evil Lord. This was understandable.

However, if Vincent stole the Ultimate Evil Lord’s favorite weapon along the way, this enmity would probably be even greater!

After seeing that Vincent had ignored him, Lionel turned to look at Justin and said solemnly, “Master, you’ve seen how arrogant this person is. If it wasn’t for your sake, I would have killed him on the spot!”

Justin was silent. He did not doubt his disciple’s determination to kill Vincent at that moment.

Vincent stood up at this time and said with a smug look, “Alright, if it wasn’t for your master’s sake, I wouldn’t have let you guard me!”

Lionel turned to glare at Vincent and roared, “Shut up! Letting me guard you was arranged by Ultimate Evil Lord, what has it got to do with you?”

Vincent smiled and turned to look at Justin.

Justin said seriously, “You becoming Vincent’s guard was indeed arranged by Vincent himself! Think about it carefully. Did you not notice what Vincent said to the Ultimate Evil Lord today? Can’t you tell that he was trying to make the Ultimate Evil Lord wary of his own subordinates? As the Ultimate Evil Lord is worried that his subordinates will be bewitched by Vincent, you automatically became the best candidate to watch him. This is because the Ultimate Evil Lord knows about the relationship between you and me. He knows how much you will hate Vincent!”

Lionel finally understood after listening to Justin’s explanation. He said with a shocked expression, “So, he knows that even if he is taken away by the Ultimate Evil Lord, he will have a way to escape safely? But when did he plan this? Was it today or did he think of it last night?”

Justin looked at Vincent and said softly, “Although I don’t know when he prepared this plan, I guess he had already thought of this plan when he learned of the arrival of the Ultimate Evil Lord!”

Vincent nodded, smiled, and said, “That’s right! Because as long as the Ultimate Evil Lord can find this place, he will definitely bring along his reliable subordinates. The vampires will definitely not let go of this opportunity to take revenge on me. As long as I am captured and handed over to the vampires, then my goal will be achieved!”

Lionel could not help but suck in a breath of cold air as he listened to Vincent’s frank explanation on how he planned to use the vampires. He asked with a displeased expression, “But if the Ultimate Evil Lord trusts the various race leaders very much, then your previous sowing of discord would not have any effect. The ones who guard you would then be Kaeger and Marcus instead. At that time, I’m afraid that you won’t be as pleased as you are now!”

Vincent shook his head and said with a disdainful expression, “Actually, my plan is just to be on guard against one creature, that is the leader of the Star Race, Manfred. He is a smart one. After listening to me, he would definitely not take the initiative to request to hold me down. The Ultimate Evil Lord would also not take the initiative to request for an expert whose position was only second to him in the capital of Ultimate Evil to do such a trivial thing! As for the others, no matter who comes to watch over me, there’s nothing to worry about!”

Lionel asked with a puzzled face, “Why?”

Vincent lowered his head to look at the wound on his chest and said with confidence, “Because the evil scepter can only seal my own power and not my ability to control the power of the Black Hole!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of flame suddenly rose in front of Lionel, and it burned bigger and bigger, gradually turning into a giant fireball.

Lionel frowned. Suddenly, he saw the outline of a figure in the flame. It seemed that there was an invisible and untouchable person standing in front of him.

Vincent did not explain the origin of the illusory figure. Instead, he said, “With him, I can kill others without them knowing. If there are more than two creatures guarding me at the same time, I can ask Justin to come out and help. I believe you know best that no one is able to be his match except for the Ultimate Evil Lord and Manfred!”

Lionel nodded nervously. He could not help but think that if it were not for Justin, he would have been killed by Vincent using that invisible figure.

Vincent kept the Return Journey of the Dead into the scabbard on his waist. He then controlled the invisible figure to disappear once again. This was the ability that he had just obtained, Shadow of Desolation.

Although it was only his first time using it, Vincent was very satisfied with its ability. In the future, as long as he fought within the Black Hole, his strength would double. In addition to its terrifying concealment effect, Vincent’s actual combat strength would also increase by more than ten times!

In his excitement, Vincent said to Justin, “Now that we’ve explained everything, we should leave if you have nothing more to say!”

Justin looked at Lionel and nodded in satisfaction. He did not say anything else and turned around to leave with Vincent.

However, Lionel quickly walked in front of Vincent and Justin and opened his arms to stop them.

“Master, you can’t leave!”

Lionel looked at Justin nervously and said in a very awkward manner, “I’ve given my life to the Ultimate Evil Lord. If I let you escape, not only me, but all the vampires will suffer!”

Lionel’s request was so reasonable that Vincent and Justin could not help but understand that the safety of the vampires was at risk. They looked at each other subconsciously.

Vincent made a fist gesture and raised his eyebrows to ask Justin.

Justin shook his head. He made a hand gesture to Vincent and then turned to look at Lionel. He said to Lionel, “Is the blood pool I created still there?”

Lionel nodded with a blank look and said, “It’s still there! After master died, the blood pool has been treated as your legacy. No member is allowed to use it privately. Plus, there are no vampires that know how to use the blood pool anymore!”

Justin nodded and turned to look at Vincent. He said in a commanding tone, “Use your blood law to drain the energy in his body!”

“What?”

Vincent and Lionel looked at Justin in shock.

Lionel could not believe that his master would be so biased toward an outsider. He had even handed over the blood law to Vincent.

Vincent did not expect Justin to be so ruthless. He could even do this to his own disciple!

Vincent had originally proposed to beat Lionel up so that he would look like a starving dog. However, he did not expect Justin’s idea to be even more vicious. He wanted to drain the energy in Lionel’s body. Was that not equivalent to directly killing him?

When Justin saw this, he had no choice but to explain, “The vampires have a secret method. By collecting the essence of some high-level races, they can create a blood pool that can be used in conjunction with the blood laws. As long as you know how to use the blood pool, no matter how serious your injury is, you can quickly recover after entering the blood pool!”

After saying that, Justin turned to look at Lionel and said in a deep voice, “You are now the leader of the Vampire Race. Later, I will hand over the method to control the blood pool to you!”

After hearing that, Lionel knelt on the ground with an excited face and said respectfully, “Thank you, master!”

After seeing that Lionel had accepted Justin’s arrangement so quickly, Vincent did not hesitate anymore. He raised his hand and cast the blood law, absorbing all the life force in Lionel’s body into his own body.

As Lionel’s surging life force entered his body, the wound on Vincent’s chest, which was unable to heal initially, finally stopped bleeding. It soon began to repair itself at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Meanwhile, Lionel became weaker and weaker. In the end, his entire body seemed to shrink, becoming shriveled and thin. He looked like a dried corpse that had been dried for thousands of years.

Finally, under Justin’s signal, Vincent put away the blood law and looked at Lionel’s miserable state. He whispered, “He’s in such a bad state, but you can still restore him to his original state. It seems that the effect of the blood pool is extraordinary. You have to teach me later!”

Justin nodded helplessly and said, “Let’s leave this place first!”

Vincent nodded. Although this trip was a little dangerous, it was still full of rewards. It was time to escape. Otherwise, when the Ultimate Evil Lord recovered from his injuries, it would be difficult for him to escape.

Vincent raised his hand and opened a space door in front of him, “Modify and open the door!”

Justin turned around and raised his hand. He condensed a red ball of light in the air and slowly pushed it into Lionel’s mind. He then followed Vincent into the space door and disappeared.

After receiving the method on how to use the blood pool, Lionel still did not forget to respectfully say, “Your disciple wishes to send master off respectfully!”

At the same time, in the closed-door training room of the spaceship, the Ultimate Evil Lord who had recovered a bit of vigor, suddenly opened his eyes and roared, “Who dares to perform a space jump on my ship?”
