Chapter 326 The Birth of the Dark Messiah
The moment the purple Transfiguration Beam Kha-Beleth, it immediately spread across his entire body at the speed of light and enveloped his enormous body.
With a faint thud, Kha-Beleth instantly turned into a swaying… soft pudding!
Among all the skills Roy created, the Transfiguration Beam was a godly skill. This short-lived ability to change the physical attributes of the target’s entire body was simply amazing. Seeing Kha-Beleth turn into a mass of thousands of tons of pudding, even Roy felt that it was an eye-opener and unbelievable.
But he did not dare to delay. He immediately rushed forward and waved Frostmourne, slashing out several ice sword beams and cutting up Kha-Beleth’s body.
When Roy weakened him earlier while he was temporarily unable to use magic power, this was the goal. Only by weakening him as much as possible would the duration of the Transfiguration Beam last longer. Otherwise, Roy would not be able to do much in the shortest one second.
But now, the moment the Transfiguration Beam hit, Roy knew that it could take effect on Kha-Beleth for four seconds. In these four seconds, Roy would do his best to cut Kha-Beleth’s enormous body into pieces.
After his body turned into a soft pudding, Kha-Beleth had lost all his hardness and defense. Frostmourne cut into his body effortlessly and slashed more than ten times in four seconds, cutting him into dozens of different-sized… puddings.
Kha-Beleth’s body collapsed and piled messily on the ground, showing a kind of… soft-bodied animal-like effect. When the duration of the Transfiguration Beam was up, these piled puddings turned back into his limbs, but these limbs had completely separated from him. “Ah-!!”
After transforming back, these cut-off parts naturally meant countless huge wounds. Now that Kha-Beleth could not use magic power, his body naturally could not elementalize. Immense amounts of blood flowed out of this torso like the opening of floodgates, causing him to roar miserably in pain.
“Wh-what did you do to me?!” Roy had cut Kha-Beleth’s neck, separating his head from his body. At this moment, his head was tilted on the ground, looking at Roy with his eyes bulging. “You didn’t die?!” Roy was greatly surprised. After he severed Xeron’s head, he had died instantly, but Kha-Beleth was still able to maintain his consciousness despite being cut into a pile of chunks of meat.
Roy stretched out his foot and kicked a piece of muscle tissue in front of Kha-Beleth. This was a large piece of… marbled meat, which seemed to be tissue from Kha-Beleth’s abdomen. Roy discovered that this big piece of meat still had strong vitality. Although the cut was large, causing blood to gush out continuously, the muscle tissues on it were shrinking and trying to stop the bleeding.
“Tsk tsk. Stupid!” After hearing Roy’s surprise, Kha-Beleth laughed wildly. “I am Demon Sovereign Kha-Beleth. Don’t use the common sense of high-rank demons to judge me!”
Roy went silent. Although Kha-Beleth did not explain, he had some guesses.
In fact, he could feel the changes in his self-healing ability as he advanced from low-rank demon all the way up. The activity stat in his attribute panel was pretty high, and he could quickly recover from most of the ordinary injuries he received. Back in the Darksiders world, he had once cut off one of his arms, but after some time, his arm grew again.
Of course, this powerful self-healing ability had a limit. At least after suffering fatal damage, it was exceedingly difficult to save his life. After being cut into two by Raphael’s holy sword, Roy had almost died on the spot. It was the same as cutting off Xeron’s head. They were both fatal blows.
However, Kha-Beleth was a demon lord, an existence known as a demigod. A demon of this level far surpassed high-rank demons. Not only did it reflect in magic power, but it also reflected in the physical body.
Demon lords, six-winged angels, and mythical creatures of this level were all advancing in the direction of elementalization. The giant flame beast that Kha-Beleth was earlier was actually his elementalized body. And this kind of body that could already elementalize had already caused their original bodies to change.
Although not being able to use magic power temporarily had made Kha-Beleth appear in physical form, his current physical form was probably in between the physical and elementalization states. In other words, the limbs that Roy cut off had both physical characteristics and the mystical characteristics of elementalization.
This was probably the so-called ‘demigod body’!
In other words, for a demigod like this, the vital points in the conventional sense had already disappeared. It was remarkably difficult to kill them at this point. Kha-Beleth could already be considered to have an immortal body.
