Although the enemy's attack was terrifying, it was not fatal for Lis.

However, the identity of the attacker made him quite suspicious.

Although he didn't specifically use Detection Magic, his spiritual power was sufficient to sense the enemy's attack.

To evade his detection and directly break through his defense, the attacker's strength seemed to surpass legend in Lis's eyes.

But now, thinking about it, there seemed to be a certain gap compared to a true Demigod.

His Soul Strength was already within the Demigod Domain, allowing him a clearer perception in this aspect.

Moreover... a Hunting Mark?

From Lis's impression, the Hunting God Church shouldn't have any Demigod Rank experts, right?

Yet the attacker inexplicably gave Lis a somewhat familiar feeling.

Lis did his best to heal the injuries on his body, then closely observed the enemy who attacked him.

He had already attempted to use Space Magic and the Communication Path, but neither worked.

Without a doubt, it was the opponent's restriction on this space.

Thinking of this made Lis a bit helpless.

Although the intensity of this restriction didn't match the Divine Artifact [Pastom's Stomach], it was still not something Lis could break through in a short time.

Targeting him so specifically, Lis wouldn't believe they weren't here just to ambush him.

As Lis's fame continued to rise, his enemies became increasingly familiar with him.

This kind of targeted restriction became increasingly common against him.

Just as Lis was completely focused, getting ready to observe the opponent's every move closely, a figure suddenly flashed across the sky like lightning.

The speed was so fast, it seemed as though time had compressed at that moment.

In the next instant, the figure eerily appeared right in front of Lis.

The shape of the person's hands was extremely peculiar, resembling two sharp and powerful Dragon Claws, as they swiftly reached for Lis with a fierce momentum.

The sharp offensive seemed capable of tearing through the air, sending shivers down one's spine.

Sensing danger approaching, the magic power within Lis surged like a raging tide.

He immediately cast several Magic Spells, and in an instant, multiple Magic Shields appeared before him, enclosing him tightly.

These shields emitted a mysterious and gentle glow, seemingly the strongest defense against the enemy.

However, similar to before, the enemy's attack was too strong.

Those Dragon Claw-like hands easily penetrated the Magic Shield.

The instant the shield shattered, light scattered, causing Lis to sway slightly due to the impact.

But the prepared Lis didn't suffer further injury; he merely stepped back slightly.

Seizing this opportunity, Lis took notice of the opponent's appearance.

He saw that the individual had a cold countenance, with a fierce glare.

A head of wild hair blew in the wind, exuding a spine-chilling aura, like a Demon walking out of Hell, making one's heart quiver at just a glance.

Lis could tell that this person originally should have been a handsome and remarkable man.

Yet his current appearance was frighteningly distorted and grotesque.

His body showcased bizarre and terrifying transformations.

The first thing eye-catching was his hands, with originally long, fair fingers, distorted into sharp and menacing Dragon Claws.

The nails were as sharp as daggers, seeming as though they could slice through anything with a mere swing.

Originally bright eyes now featured eerie vertical pupils.

Like a cold-blooded animal, they emitted a chilling and fierce vibe, daunting to look at directly.

His skin was now covered in tiny scales, glinting with a cold gloss under the faint light, resembling a layer of hard yet icy armor wrapping around him.

More terrifying was the appearance of twisting joints

Every movement seemed so bizarre and distorted, as though a monster from another World was struggling to move its body.

This is... Dragon Transformation Phenomenon?

It seemed its presence had as well corrupted him entirely with Evil power, emanating a violent and crazy aura.

His now-transformed appearance gave Lis a sense of familiarity.

Lis pondered briefly and recalled who this was.

The Divine Son of the God of Hunting, Lune!

Lis remembered this one very well!

After all, he had previously been besieged by Lune allied with two Legends, though he managed to escape.

Naturally, Lis didn't allow the opponent to get away without consequences.

He quickly seized an opportunity to attack Lune's controlled small world, taking Lune's Divine Position Fragment.

By comparison, Lune suffered a significant loss.

Observing from that small world's situation, Lis could tell Lune expended extensive effort to control that Divine Position Fragment.

In the end, all was taken by Lis's action.

So, here for revenge due to rage?

Lis looked at the almost unrecognizable Lune, speculating inwardly.

Lune's current power was significantly stronger than before.

Lis was sure Lune was now almost at Demigod level.

Or perhaps, half-step Demigod?

Judging by his appearance, he seemed to have gained this power through some Evil ritual.

Must have paid an enormous price.

It appears his consciousness has been affected somehow.

Nonetheless, the deep-seated hatred towards Lis remained!

"Lis... you should die!"

"If it weren't for you, if it weren't for you!!"

"By killing you, sacrificing you, I can reclaim everything that should be mine!!!"

...

Lune, while letting out angry roars, launched a storm of attacks against Lis.

Lune, like a beast completely enraged, didn't hesitate to initiate a sharp attack when closing in on Lis.

His movements were lightning-speed, slicing through the night sky, far exceeding Lis's expectations.

Lis only saw a blur that momentarily overwhelmed him; before he could react, Lune's attack was already upon him.

Owing to the Dragon Transformation, each of Lune's attacks carried terrifying Strength.

He swung the Dragon Claw with a force like overturning mountains and rivers, intending to utterly destroy everything before him.

That sharp offensive could make mountains crumble and rivers sever.

Lis struggled to fend off, but under Lune's stormy attacks, he felt somewhat powerless.

He could only continually dodge, searching for a flaw in Lune's onslaught.

Lune's attacks, however, were like incessant waves, leaving no room for Lis to catch his breath.

The powerful clashes twisted the surroundings, emanating deafening, spine-chilling roars.

Lis showed a tense expression, with magic power swirling around.

He methodically cast various defense and enhancement spells, with layers of pale gold Shields forming before him, while runes for Strengthening glowed dimly, enhancing his agility and power.

Meanwhile, he skillfully wielded various weapons, slicing through the air with a Sword, while swinging a War Axe down with a whooshing sound, doing everything possible to fend off Lune's torrential attacks.

At this moment, Lis had only one plan in mind.

To buy as much time as possible, awaiting the arrival of assistance.

This place was the Treasure Pearl Sea, quite near Kane Floating City.

Once the Floating City arrived, none of this would be formidable.

The Lune before him had undoubtedly reached the Demigod Realm in physical strength.

His towering robust stature seemed like an unmovable mountain, exuding a powerful pressure that was spine-chilling.

This pressure weighed down on Lis almost tangibly, making his actions appear somewhat laborious.

Despite Lune's insanity due to the Dragon Transformation, he could perceive Lis's intention.

A flash of viciousness crossed Lune's eyes, as he unleashed all his power.

He exploded like a raging beast, launching a ferocious attack on Lis.

He must defeat and kill Lis before the arrival of assistance, otherwise, with Lis's caution, there would likely never be such a good opportunity again.

This was his only chance!

He had already initiated the Hunting Ceremony, with Lis as the final offering.

If he failed, he would become Marla's offering himself!
