The broken barrier gradually shattered like a withered flower.

Gladstone's figure slowly emerged from it.

​​

Seeing his figure, everyone's gaze froze.

At this moment, Gladstone's clothes were tattered, blood was flowing all over his body, and his left arm was unnaturally bent.

It was obvious that he had suffered a serious injury.

However, when they saw this scene, none of them were happy. On the contrary, their faces were unsightly, and their eyes unconsciously revealed despair.

Could such a terrifying attack not kill him?

Everyone's hearts were filled with despair, and they were terrified of their impending ending.

There were even many people who had begun to quietly retreat and, at the back of the crowd, there were already many people who had begun to flee.

Gladstone's expression was extremely ugly. The gaze he used to look at Joelson was extremely cold, as if even the temperature of the air had been affected.

A huge wave of resentment spread in his heart.

This strike had caused him to suffer quite a serious injury.

There were at least a dozen fractures on his body, and even his left arm had been broken!

Ever since he was born, he had never suffered such a serious injury!

Even in the Supreme Academy, when facing other students, he had never suffered such an injury!

And now, in a small place like the Plane of Slaughter, he was actually injured to such an extent?

"You will die a miserable death!"

Gladstone gritted his teeth so hard that they made sounds. He angrily said, "I will make you suffer and then die!"

When Joelson heard Gladstone's threat, his face was still calm. There was only indifference in his eyes.

"Judging from your performance, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. I'll give you a chance to use arcane magic."

Joelson said calmly.

The reason why he had waited until now was to see the true arcane magic.

He wanted to see the true arcane magic in the Supreme Academy. What was the difference between it and the "arcane magic" that he had developed?

As he spoke, a ray of white-gold light lit up in Joelson's hand, as if a dazzling sun had risen.

Seeing this scene, many people who had seen this scene once again had hope.

They had seen the power of this white-gold light before. Although it wasn't as terrifying as the scene created by the hand of earth.

But in terms of lethality, it was even stronger than the hand of earth!

It was different from everyone else.

Clemente's forehead was tightly furrowed and his eyes revealed a look of worry.

He had once entered the Supreme Academy, and he understood more about the terror of arcane magic than anyone else.

"Clemente, can Joelson's platinum light resist arcane magic?"

Valentine's weak voice rang out.

Clemente shook his head slightly.

"No."

"Although the lethality of the white-gold light of Joelson far exceeds that of a demigod... The power of arcane magic is far more terrifying than you can imagine! Even peak-stage demigod experts would find it hard to resist the power of arcane magic!"

Clemente said in a low voice, his voice filled with worry.

Hearing his words, Valentine, Toby, and Edessa began to worry as well.

Right now, all they could hope for was that Joelson still had a more powerful trump card!

This was also their only chance to survive other than escaping!

However, each of the four of them had been saved by Joelson before. If they were allowed to abandon Joelson and escape, they would rather die here!

Gladstone suddenly laughed maniacally.

"Joelson, I have to admit that you are very strong!"

"Even I can't capture you alive!"

The moment Gladstone saw the platinum light, he felt an extremely sharp aura.

He knew that it was impossible to capture Joelson alive and torture him to death.

If he forced himself to do so, the person who would die would be him!

From this platinum light, he could sense an extreme danger.

Gladstone's smile gradually disappeared, and he spoke with a serious expression on his face.

"But arcane magic... no one can resist it!"

As he spoke, Gladstone's body began to emanate a vigorous life force, constantly healing the wounds on his body.

As long as he wasn't killed, a demigod would be able to quickly heal his wounds, even if it was a fatal injury.

This was one of the reasons why it was extremely difficult to kill a deity.

Joelson didn't stop him.

Soon, Gladstone returned to his peak condition, and his broken left arm was restored as well.

"If you were able to enter the Supreme Academy alive, you might be even stronger than me."

"Unfortunately, you won't have the chance."

"Although I haven't completely mastered it, it's enough to kill you!"

Gladstone slowly raised his right hand and pointed his index finger at Joelson.

"Arcane magic, metal-type Death Alchemy!"

A dark golden ray of light shot toward Joelson at an extreme speed.

In an instant!

Joelson's pupils suddenly constricted.

He felt the aura of death approaching him!

He had never felt such a feeling before!

Even the arcane platinum power could not resist this true arcane magic!

Wherever the dark gold light passed, the void did not shatter. Instead, it turned into a dark gold metal, just like a metal rod.

Not only the void, where the light passed, all the laws and arcane were annihilated!

They were not absorbed, nor were they pushed out.

They had simply vanished. They had been annihilated!

Even the metal-type laws and arcane mysteries couldn't be sensed!

All they could sense was an aura of death!

When the people of the two empires saw this scene, the hope that had just risen vanished once more.

From such a distance, they could sense the power and strangeness of this power with just their eyes.

This was definitely not a power that a demigod could fight against!

Even peak gods would find it hard to survive against this power!

"It's over!"

"There's no way Joelson can win!"

"This power is too terrifying! It's not something a demigod can withstand!"

"Hurry up and run!"

"If you don't run, you'll die here!"

Despair quickly filled the air.

At this point, they couldn't care about anything else.

They all ran out.

Clemente and Valentine didn't say anything when they saw everyone running away.

They knew that in this kind of despair, even if they tried to stop them, it would be useless.

Right now, all they could do was wait.

Wait for Joelson's death or victory!

As he stared at the dark golden ray of light that was shooting towards him, the shock and astonishment in his heart only lasted for a moment before it subsided.

The more dangerous the moment, the more he needed to remain calm!

The gaze that Joelson used to look at the dark golden ray of light seemed to have solidified, wanting to see through it.

The arcane magic had already locked onto his aura. It was impossible for him to dodge it.

He could only take it head-on!

At the thought of this, Joelson's expression calmed down, but his eyes were burning with a fierce fighting spirit.

"Arcane forbidden spell!"

"..."
