[CH598+ Continued] Dungeon Diver: Stealing A Monster's Power

Raven's sharp gaze locked with the approaching Demon doesn't waver, even as it laughs and mocks her while she seems pinned to the desert floor at the center of a crater.

"Any last words before I make your life worse than death, and you realize it is too late to submit?!"

Raven activates the buff that has entered her consciousness and feels tens of millions of stat points rushing into her body, becoming reinforced by her True Core's threads and pushing her limits far beyond what they were just moments ago...

Even the dense black and purple aura flowing out from the spear in her chest was deadly enough to suppress her movements, thoughts, and make it difficult to breathe or move when it was close by.

Now, as she grins and tears the black spear from her chest with ease, jumping upward off the desert floor to match the massive Demonic Greater Form's unfathomable speed, the Arch Demon floating downward doesn't comprehend the scene in front of it.

Mid-jump, Raven reactivates her Divine Stealth skill and True Core's ability, disappearing entirely from the unsealed Demon's vision, only to be sensed again when her energy form's silver blades tear into the Demon's chest.

Her attack breaks through its defenses without even being noticed, and without its weapon on hand, all the demon can do is tank the hit just like she did for its last attack, twisting its body as best it can to have both her blades miss its Arch Demon's core by millimeters.

Dark red blood gushes out from its chest as Raven pulls out her swords and dodges its incoming clawed hands, but the instant she moves out of its immediate aura, she becomes invisible again, and the demon lets out a murderous roar.

It is filled with both rage and excitement, as the black and purple energy creating its greater form grows and the black spear on the desert floor floats back to its outstretched hand.

"Incredible! No one but the Noble Bloodlines has ever landed a hit like that on my unsealed form... You must truly be the strongest human left to guard this world."

It grins, showing an ominous smile of rows of sharp white teeth and bright eyes burning through its 40-meter-tall Demonic Greater Form.

There's no response, as Raven is still completely invisible, but its body twists when it feels sharp swords in its side, letting out another monstrous laugh while countering with its spear.

This time, not receiving such a deadly strike, but still having chunks of flesh and armor torn away before its spear blocks the swords.

In the next moment, Raven is gone again, and the process continues.

Over and over, Raven tears through the Demon's flesh and armor, going back on the offensive as this battle escalates even further, forcing the Demon to block and be on guard for its life.

Meanwhile, all throughout the silver dome, the insidious aura of a 1st Class Bloodline awakening was enough to turn all heads to the battle in Sector 1 taking place. However, Raven's new surge in power gives off a sharp and murderous aura of its own every time her blades collide with the Demon's spear.

The shockwaves of aura, even hundreds of kilometers away, are making many of the Crimson Army's troops, and even the red and orange cores of the demon's army, fall to their knees and have momentary lapses in their ability to fight.

Two True Cores, enhanced far above their natural capabilities, destroy the desert below them, showing off powers too vast for a small world like this to handle.

If not for the dome around them, the entire Dark Continent and 8 Great Regions would be subject to this pressure, similar to the time the Vermillion Lord and Flame Emperor had a brief mental clash.
