Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 103: Sacrifice of Soul
In order to allow the remaining troops to break forward smoothly, Eli naturally had to leave behind many saints to block the enemy demons.

In addition to him, there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers left behind to resist the pursuit of the demons. These soldiers could be said to have a real chance of death, but they did not show any fear or complain.

The hatred between the hundreds of races and the demons is as deep as the sea. To die in order to resist the demons is a worthy and glorious death.

After the four saints of the coalition led their troops to charge forward, the demon army frantically attacked the defense line of the coalition's rearguard troops, but were all blocked by the tenacious coalition soldiers.

However, there was not a single demon from the Demon Saint Order who could lead the army to break through the coalition forces' defenses. All their attention was on Eli.

As long as this young human saint can be killed, it doesn’t matter even if all the enemy troops escape.

Vice versa, if this young human saint escapes, it will be a failure even if the enemy is completely wiped out.

Eli's importance was far greater than the tens of millions of defeated soldiers. The demons had been targeting Eli since the very beginning, and killing those coalition soldiers was just a by-product.

However, judging from the previous encounter, this human saint named Eli is not so easy to kill. He is definitely more than a saint-level warrior, but he is not a demigod either.

Although his fighting spirit is strong, it is just fighting spirit, without any divinity. If he possessed the strength of a demigod, when the demons attacked him together before, they would have been more than just repelled with their weapons.

But this guy's body... is even stronger than that of an average demigod. Even true demigods rarely can withstand the attacks of the Demon King and remain unscathed.

How should we define this guy's strength? Half a step to demigod? Half demigod?
Forget it, what's the point of worrying about the enemy's strength at this time? Since they have surrounded him, even if he is a real demigod, we must fight him to death! Such a proud child of heaven must not be allowed to continue to grow!
The demon saints looked at Eli with eyes full of determination and murderous intent. Today, either the enemy would die or the demon would die, and one side would definitely die on the battlefield.

"Everyone! Work together. We must not let him catch the lone demon!"

Even though there are several powerful saints among the demon saints, they dare not take it lightly when facing Eli who can kill people of the same level in seconds. The two demon kings who died in vain before are a lesson for them.

"Come on! You think you can beat me?"

The battle axe in Eli's hand danced rapidly, leaving a trail of afterimages, forcing back the enemy demons that attacked him one by one. However, there were too many enemy demons that he had to deal with at the same time, and he was unable to launch a counterattack against them for a while.

However, as their weapons clashed with his battle axes again and again, many of the demon clan's holy-level weapons could no longer hold out. Top-quality equipment is also part of a warrior's strength. The only thing they could blame was that they were too poor, and their equipment was a little shabby.

"Go to hell!"

With a low roar, a tremendous fighting spirit burst out from Eli's battle axe, and the entire battle axe turned into a stream of light and collided with the weapons of the ten demon saints one by one. The weapon of one of the demons was already on the verge of breaking, and under this blow, the weapon in his hand instantly shattered into debris.

"laugh"

The battle axe slashed down at the moment the enemy's weapon was broken, and the surrounding space shook. There seemed to be a faint strange sound, and the next moment, a huge head rolled to the ground.

Under the joint attack of 25 demon saints, Eli once again forcibly killed a demon saint, and his momentum completely crushed the demons who had the advantage in numbers. "A genius with divine weapons, everyone! Don't let him leave alive! Fight for your life!"

This time it was the Demon Saint who roared, and when his voice fell, a demonic energy even stronger than before burst out. His entire demon seemed to be reborn, and although his breath was a little unstable, he had indeed become much stronger.

The origin of a Saint-level demon was burned. Although this was not enough to push him to the position of demigod, it could at least reach the strength of Lyman Copperfield. The only difference was that the weapon in his hand was not a semi-artifact.

With this demon taking the lead, nine of the remaining twenty-three demon saints burned their essence. They were determined to kill Eli here regardless of the losses.

However, even after burning their origin, these demon saints still couldn't hurt Eli at all. Although they successfully evolved from being a one-round enemy to being a several-round enemy, they were just the difference between a small-time lord and a small boss.

If it is against ordinary players, ten small bosses plus fourteen small lords can slaughter them countless times, but if they encounter a big guy with maximum level of divine equipment, this strength is really not enough. It is nothing more than spending more time and slowly grinding them to death.

After discovering that burning the origin was of no avail, the demon saints went completely crazy. The demon saint who first burned the origin directly gave up besieging Eli and knelt down towards the north.

"I am willing to offer my soul and ask my God to grant me strength..."

Eli, who was wielding the battle axe so tightly, shook his tiger body. Suddenly, an evil but extremely powerful force broke through the clouds and descended from the sky, pouring directly into the demon saint who was kneeling on the ground.

The next moment, demonic energy with divinity gushed out from his body, and by sacrificing his soul, this demon saint briefly stepped into the realm of the great demon king, which is the realm of demigod among all races.

The demon god far away in the demon world may not respond to every prayer of the demon clan, but if you are willing to offer your soul, the evil and powerful demon god does not mind satisfying the believers' small wishes, especially the soul of the holy rank, which is a great tonic even for the demon god, and no one would think it is too much.

The big devil...

Although he only possesses the power of the Great Demon for a short period of time and will die on the spot due to the sacrifice of his soul afterwards, this is still the strongest demon Eli has encountered since his debut.

Based on Eli's understanding of the demons, the stronger the sacrificed soul, the longer the duration of the blessing he would receive. Judging from the strength of the previous strongest saint-level demon in the demon clan, the power of the great demon king he received could last for at least a quarter of an hour.

I'll try to see if I can hold out for a quarter of an hour...

Holding the battle axe carefully in his hand, Eli no longer had any eyes for the other demon saints. He didn't care even if their weapons hit his body, leaving shallow blood marks on it.

Anyway, with his recovery ability, this tiny wound would heal before blood even has time to drip. If he wasn't afraid of wasting his energy and blood, he wouldn't have been so cautious in his defensive counterattack.

Unlike ordinary warriors who are covered in blood and have a small amount of essence and blood, Eli not only has a body of iron and steel, but he has also long since refined all the blood on his body into drops of essence and blood. He would feel heartbroken even if he lost a single drop.
