A succubus devours its master? She then raises a twelve-winged angel!

Chapter 291 Everyone is a King!

Qing Shuang was the first to achieve a breakthrough.

A dense, ghostly aura surged from her body, spreading rapidly like an inky tide, shrouding the entire cave in darkness.

The mist swirled and churned, spontaneously coalescing in mid-air into a gigantic phantom of a ghost king—

It has a single horn on its head, and its outline is strikingly similar to that of the Azure Frost itself.

As the phantom gradually solidified, Qing Shuang's aura also rose steadily, and her attribute values ​​experienced an explosive increase:

【Ghost Clan (Azure Frost)】

[Rank: Commander Level 9 → King Level 1]

[Qualification: Mythical 9-star]

【Power: 90000→150000】

[Physique: 70000→130000]

【Spirit: 60000→100000】

Speed: 70000 → 130000

[Skills: Demon King Form, Four Demon Styles, Demon King Domain, Law of Power]

Looking at the various attributes that Qing Shuang had improved, Gu Xing nodded slightly.

When Lilith reached the fifth rank of King, her various attributes were only around 200000 points.

Qing Shuang, however, was merely a first-rank monarch.

The strength attribute has already reached 150000 points.

If Qing Shuang reaches the fifth level of the King rank, her strength attribute will definitely far surpass Lilith's.

He also noticed that after reaching the King level, the various attributes of the beast began to differentiate significantly, no longer developing as evenly as at lower levels.

However, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

For Qing Shuang
Strength is her most important attribute; everything else is just icing on the cake.

Gu Xing shifted his gaze from Qing Shuang and turned to Vera.

A soft green light emanated from her body, and the ghostly aura that had been permeating the surroundings seemed to be pushed away and separated by a gentle yet irresistible force.

The air atop the snow-capped mountain trembled slightly, and the life energy permeating the wind and snow began to converge upon her like a tide.

As a life spirit, Vera unconsciously draws upon all available life force when she breaks through to a higher level.

At that moment, she seemed to have become an invisible vortex—

The ice field moss and edelweiss that grow tenaciously in the snow, and even the roots buried deep in the permafrost, are all withering and dying rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Their life energy transformed into wisps of light, flowing towards where Vera was.

Moreover, some small insects hiding in the snow and rock crevices also silently lost their life force in that instant, their meager vitality being mercilessly extracted.

After experiencing a cycle of reincarnation and rebirth, Vera's control over the laws of life is no longer limited to plants.

Any creature with a lower vitality than her may become the target of her unconscious plunder.

As the life energy from the entire snow-capped mountain peak continued to flow in, Vera's body shone brightly with green light, and her aura finally reached its peak.

The next moment, all her attributes began to increase rapidly, officially entering a new realm.

【Life Spirit (Vera)】

[Qualification: Mythical 9-star]

[Rank: Commander Level 9 → King Level 1]

[Status: normal]

【Power: 65000→100000】

[Physique: 65000→100000]

【Spirit: 90000→160000】

Speed: 65000 → 100000

[Skills: Life Elf Form (including skills such as Natural Elegy, Elf Kingship, and Life Bloom), Reincarnation, Life Domain, and Law of Life]

After breaking through to the Monarch level, Vera's mental strength increased by an astonishing amount.

Her power surged from 90,000 to 160,000, far exceeding Qing Shuang's growth. However, this does not necessarily mean that her combat ability is stronger than Qing Shuang's.

Both possess the top-tier qualifications of a Mythical Nine-Star and have mastered the power of the Origin Law, making it difficult to simply judge their true combat strength.

More importantly, their development paths are completely different:
Qing Shuang pursues the ultimate instantaneous burst of power.

With the combined power of the "Four Styles of the Demon Clan" and the "Law of Power," she can unleash devastating power in an instant, crushing powerful enemies with a single thunderous strike.

Vera, however, took a different path.

With absolute control over the power of life, she can continuously absorb the energy of all living beings in her surroundings and convert it for her own use.

In theory, given enough time to build up power, she could even control a torrent of life far exceeding her own level, crushing her opponents.

As Qing Shuang and Vera both completed their breakthroughs and their breathing gradually stabilized, Gu Xing slowly turned his gaze to the last one—

Crystal!

After Liuli fell and was reborn last time, Gu Xing finally saw clearly the feelings in his heart that were hard to ignore.

He understood that his feelings for this little girl with clear eyes who had always been by his side were far more than just the bond between master and beast.

At this moment, Liuli frowned, her aura fluctuating constantly. Although it was continuously increasing, she was still unable to break through the limit of the monarch level.

A hint of worry flashed across Gu Xing's eyes.
Qing Shuang and Vera both broke through smoothly, so why was it only Liu Li who did...?

Could it be that the previous death left behind a hidden danger?

Just then, the snow woman beside her suddenly changed her expression and retreated abruptly.

She finally noticed something was wrong.

At first, she was still awestruck by the astonishing momentum Qing Shuang and Vera displayed during their breakthroughs—

These two beast tamers are clearly only at the first level of the monarch rank, yet the commotion of their breakthrough is comparable to that of a half-step totem!

She finally understood why Lilith insisted that she expend her mental energy to heal them. Their potential truly far exceeded her imagination.

But what horrified her even more at this moment was the angel before her.

An extremely hot aura was emanating from Liuli, causing the ice in the cave, which had been frozen for tens of thousands of years, to begin to slowly melt!
This is the deepest part of the snowy region. The ice in the cave has remained unmelted for thousands of years and can even withstand being thrown into lava for a short time.

It was precisely because of this extremely cold land that the Snow Maiden was able to raise her strength to the second level of the totem over a hundred years.

Yet at this moment, this eternal ice melted away in the intense heat unconsciously emanating from the angel.

Gu Xing also suddenly realized:
It was this extreme environment that hindered Liuli's breakthrough.

"Fei Yue!"

At his thought, Fei Yue appeared in response.

Following Gu Xing's silent instructions, she instantly flashed to Liuli's side and moved with her outside the snow cave.

Outside the cave, on the icy plain, the biting wind still howled.

However, the moment Liuli emerged from the cave—

A tremendous pressure suddenly erupted!

A blazing fire of destruction surged from her body, instantly engulfing her in flames.

Under this extreme heat, the snow within a radius of a hundred miles froze, and the temperature in the air rose sharply.

The aura of the glass finally reached its peak, without any further obstruction.

All attributes began to increase rapidly!
