Chapter 935: The Demon's Transformation: Going All Out
It was, of course, Reign's doing.
His eyes turned purple as he stared at the demon with a smile on his face. He had used his soul manipulation to quickly and unnoticeably deal a blow to the demon, causing immense damage to his soul by sending a sword that was made up of soul power straight to his head.
Laura didn't stay idle, and neither did the others. The large pentagram that was drawn on both of her hands shone as she brought her hands together before her arms fully transformed into the arms of a demon.
Purple scales appeared on her hands, the rest of her arms, and her shoulder before she took a deep breath and punched forward, creating a distortion in the air in front of her before a large beam of purple energy struck the demon's body, causing it to roar in great pain.
Wolf unleashed a torrent of flames, engulfing the demon in a blazing inferno that seared its flesh and sent it reeling. Tank and Greenie continued their assault, their attacks now fueled by their transformed states, delivering devastating blows that shook the demon to its core.
Mia joined in, her frosty attacks now even more potent, freezing the demon's limbs and further restricting its movement. Shadow darted around the demon, his darkened blades slicing through its flesh with deadly precision, each strike weakening its defenses and draining its strength.
Reign didn't continue utilizing his soul manipulation and struck with his two swords and lightning, cutting through the skin of the demon and drawing blood before once again hitting it with the soul power and causing it to freeze for an instant again.
Despite their newfound power, the demon fought back fiercely, its massive fists swinging wildly as it tried to fend off their attacks. It managed to land a few solid blows, sending several of them flying back with brutal force.
After all, the demon was a Tier VI raid boss, and even with everything under their disposal, it was not easy to be taken down.
But they were undeterred. Reign and the others pressed their advantage, their attacks relentless and precise. With each strike, they weakened the demon further, pushing it closer and closer to defeat.
That was, before the demon roared, causing the air around him to be pushed back, and with it, Reign and the others.

Red demonic energy shone around the demon's body as it stared at Reign and the others with hatred.
"You bugs, you damned little bugs."
"Look at what you've done, look at how you damaged by body."
"I will break you into pieces, squash you like bugs, turn you into mush and drink you after I am finished." The demon said with a bloodthirsty smile on his face as his aura changed.
The wind was still blowing, and for Reign and the others, getting close to the demon was almost impossible. The aura coming from him and the immense pressure of the wind made it hard to get closer than 5 meters to the demon who suddenly changed.
The horns on his head suddenly went inside the head, disappearing from sight.
In an instant, bones suddenly started appearing on the body of the demon, forming an armor of bones on his skin, as well as his skull.
In mere seconds, the red demon was replaced by a gray demon that was completely enveloped in an armor of bones.
Reign tried attacking it with his soul manipulation, but it was for naught, just like how it was a couple of seconds ago while it was transforming. During the transformation, there was something akin to a force field around the demon that blocked his soul attacks, and now, it was the bones that actually blocked them.
Now, Reign could no longer use his soul attacks to inflict damage on the demon.
The demon laughed menacingly as it flexed its newly formed bone armor, the cracks on its body now reinforced with the sturdy material. It seemed nearly invulnerable, and Reign and the others realized that defeating it in this state would be many times more difficult than before.
"We need to find a way to break through that armor," Reign said, his voice determined. "We can't let it intimidate us."
"We need to find a weak spot," Laura added, her eyes scanning the demon's form for any sign of vulnerability. "There has to be a way to penetrate that armor, no matter how sturdy it might seem."
Tank stepped forward, his eyes locked on the demon. "I'll try to break through with my axe."
"Greenie, cover me."
Greenie nodded, his hammer at the ready as Tank charged forward, his axe swinging in a powerful arc. The blade struck the demon's armor with a resounding clang, but it barely made a dent. Greenie followed up with a strike of his own, his hammer slamming into the demon's side with tremendous force.
The hammer definitely did better as the demon actually moved slightly from the attack, but it was still not enough.
A weapon that mainly dealt blunt damage was definitely better than a sharp weapon when facing off against an enemy like this, but it would still take a lot of power and effort to break the armor.
"Humph, is that all you got?" The demon asked before he moved, swinging his massive arms to the side and sending Greenie and Tank flying back.
"Well, this seems to be the final stretch, we can't be holding back any longer." Reign said with a sigh as the others nodded.
Greenie used his transformation, his body growing larger as he became completely red with long white hair falling down his back. Wolf's flames turned a bit purple while red lightning appeared around them, which was the power of chaos coming from his sword.
He had managed to make some progress with taming the soul inside of the sword and having it help him control the flames of chaos inside of it.
Tank grew larger as well as horns appeared on his head, Laura's demonic scales spread further on her body, Mia's body became fairer and her hair became snow white, Shadow seemed like he was wearing a black robe, but it was actually darkness itself that was around him, the mana covering him compressed to such an extent thanks to the mark that it formed a robe.
As for Reign, his marks were fully activated, but that was just the beginning.
A powerful aura exploded from within him as he grew taller and a pair of wings sprouted on his back.
Like a king overlooking mere peasants, he floated up in the air and stared down at the demon whose eyes had narrowed down.
"I see, you are a Nephilim."
"To think I would come across an accursed Nephilim in such a place, and to think it would happen the very moment I arrived, interesting."
"You know, we demons really dislike your kind, just like you dislike us."
"It will be my pleasure, and honor, to kill you today."
"The pleasure will be mine, you won't be alive much longer, demon."
The two clashed with a force that shook the ground, their attacks colliding in a dazzling display of power. Reign unleashed a flurry of strikes, his swords cutting through the air with blinding speed as he aimed for any weak points he could notice on the demon's armor. The demon retaliated with its own devastating attacks, its bone armor proving to be a formidable defense against Reign's onslaught.
Tank and Greenie joined the fray, their transformed states granting them even greater strength and resilience. Tank swung his axe with brutal force, aiming for the gaps in the demon's armor, while Greenie unleashed a barrage of powerful blows with his hammer, each strike sending shockwaves through the demon's body.
Greenie was now almost as tall as the demon, with Tank being slightly below him in size. The two now possessed immense power, and with their large size, they were also able to grab the demon and not let it move from time to time, immobilizing it and allowing the others to attack it.
Wolf unleashed his chaotic flames, the inferno engulfing the demon in a blazing inferno that threatened to consume it whole. Mia's frosty attacks followed suit, her icy blasts no longer focused on just freezing the demon, but also on causing some damage to his body.
She created multiple giant spears that she controlled, having them spin in place faster and faster before launching them at the demon, causing the air to break as the spears each broke through the sound barrier, reaching Mach 4 and striking the body before exploding and piling on a thick layer of ice on the demon's body.
She also formed large hammers to batter the demon, as did Laura who continued to summon weapons with the help of the pentagram and had them strike the demon with immense power.
While all of that was happening, Reign was above the demon, channeling his mana and getting ready to attack the demon with the most powerful attack he could muster at this time.
He was supposed to be the one keeping the demon at bay, but Tank and Greenie were thankfully able to do it themselves, which made him free to do what he wanted.
