Chapter 70 - The counterattack of the Illusion Demon.

The Illusion Demon ended up falling to the ground, unable to stand, with most of its legs severely damaged. It appeared to have lost most of its fighting ability. At this point, Punk even considered the possibility of transporting it through the portal to the plane of Pheren. However, he hesitated, thinking that bringing a powerful demon to a place where most people were ordinary would seriously harm his reputation. Still, he was reluctant to let such a valuable material go to waste.

But he finally decided to leave this huge guy who was still frantically attacking while lying on the ground. Although the strength of this demon did not exceed the portal's capacity, its size was too big. If Punk wanted to drag it through the portal, it was necessary to divide its body into seven or eight pieces.

But It would take too much time, which Punk obviously didn't have much. Most of the powerful demons had extraordinary perceptions, so he was almost certain that some of them had already begun to rush here. After all, the aftermath of the huge battle just now was too conspicuous. Generally, mages would use Isolating barriers to prevent being siege by other demons when fighting in the Abyss. But Punk's encounter was just too sudden, and besides, he also didn't have any large-scale isolating spell.

In the end, Punk could only take the magic prison full of other low-level demons to the portal.

One had to say that the apprentice-level potions had an extraordinary effect on these lower-level demons; even now, none of the ferocious demons inside the cage woke up.

But it seemed like the furious demon didn't want Punk to exit the Abyss without a fight. Being brutally beaten to near death by a mage who appeared out of nowhere and being unable to mount a substantial counterattack would be a lasting disgrace in the demon world.

The bloody demon made a terrible roar that was almost condensed into a shock wave because of its rage. Suddenly, a large amount of abyssal energy appeared on its body, and the blood-red energy was like a snake swimming in the sharp bone spurs.

One of the Glabrezu demon's special skills, called "Grappling," was activated!

The demon, which had been on the brink of death just moments ago, suddenly sprang to life with incredible speed.

Fueled by abyssal energy, its massive body broke the sound barrier, transforming into a blur as it charged toward the portal. Its immense force sent sand flying, creating a large cloud of blood-colored dust on both sides.

Amidst the swirling reddish dust and the shockwave, the Illusion demon surged straight at Punk near the portal like a crimson storm.

As Punk had made up his mind to face the demon's final charge, he was fully ready for it.

Confronting the Illusion demon that materialized almost instantly in front of him, Punk swiftly cast the spell he had prepared.

A purple-colored, slowly rotating energy band shot from Punk's hand and attached onto the illusion demon's massive claws just ten meters away.

While the spell attached itself to the demon's arm covered in red abyssal energy, many purple, mysterious symbols spiraled up the demon's arm until they reached its shoulder. This whole process happened in less than a blink of an eye!

Once the arm was covered by the purple magic symbols, it began to slow down until it stopped completely. The purple energy band quickly soaked up the motion from the arm, and at the same time, a large purple circle appeared behind Punk. As the circle rotated slowly, the absorbed motion transformed into many little pieces of energy. These tiny bits of energy then split into even smaller particles, creating a bunch of sparkling purple dust-like specks. These glittering particles floated around Punk, creating a dazzling and magical sight.

Official-level conjuration spells- "Kinetic energy absorption"

This spell could absorb all the kinetic energy of an object, and then through the spell structure, it was transformed into fragmented harmless kinetic energy and released from behind the spell circle.

The most important thing was that to absorb the kinetic energy, the objects had to be completely covered by the passive energy absorbing spell runes. Therefore, the kinetic energy absorbed by Punk's spell was only limited to the arm of the illusion demon, and its body still continued to move forward at high speed under the charge of its special move, So the result was obvious, the body of the illusion demon slammed into its own arm.

Accompanied by the painful wailing of the demon, the continuous sound of cracking bones could be heard, and a large amount of flesh and blood was thrown around from both sides of the fractured surface, the entire right hand of the illusion was twisted into the shape of a weird ball.

This was a truly surprising sight. You see, when the Illusion demon's own hand collided at an extreme speed, it was almost like a missile hitting a Boeing 747. But instead of being completely destroyed, its arm was only twisted and shattered. It remained in one piece, which showed just how strong the Illusion demon's body was.

However, no matter how strong the body was, it lacked clever tactics and skills.

Because the kinetic energy absorption spell only affected one arm, the Illusion demon couldn't maintain its balance. It rolled from Punk's side at a breakneck speed, resembling a giant ball, leaving behind only a torn arm trembling and twitching on the ground.

"How generous, delivering me free material."

Punk looked at the piece of mangled meat in front of him, and then the illusion demon who rolled away at least two hundred meters and seemed very miserable. Now there was no need for him to take action at all, a demon with only one limb left, in this endless Abyss that meant the end of the line.

Punk used his mage hand to grasp the piece of the Illusion demon, which had mostly turned into a sludgy mess. He also grabbed the magical prison and without hesitation, dashed into the portal.

He could already sense several huge sources of danger were coming here from all directions, the unconcealed tyrannical killing intent combined with the blood-red flying clouds of dust in this area created a murderous atmosphere. Punk knew that he had to leave, even if the demon's corpse was almost dismembered, and as long as he uses a few spells to pull a few pieces over, he could gain a lot of materials, but there was no time. If he waited until the group of battle-crazy demons entered his field of vision, he might not be able to leave anymore.

Again after the familiar sense of weightlessness, Punk unknowingly once again returned to the plane of Pheren.

After returning to the white tower that was polluted by the strange red aura of the Abyss, Punk quickly destroyed the portal with a slingshot.

Accompanied by the harsh sound of friction, the blood-red portal was closed. Before closing, Punk faintly heard an angry roar and fighting sounds coming from the other side of the portal.

"Right on time!"

After wiping away his sweat, Punk tossed aside the demon's arms and the cage filled with low-level demons. Then he grabbed a bottle of clean water from the table, gently blowing off the bloody dust from the bottle's mouth before taking a sip.

"I must say, the environment in the Pheren plane is quite nice."

Punk stood in the living room of the white tower, which was covered in blood-colored dust and had a foul odor. However, thanks to his mage armor, his body remained clean and untouched. Inside the White Tower, there was a two-centimeter-thick layer of bloody dust and the scent of the Abyss had started to erode the tower's walls and floors, that needed to be cleaned up, but these things were not difficult to solve.
