Armor with a dark motif enveloped Jasum's body. Unexpectedly, the dark energy was capable of creating armor as strong as a knight's. Darkness, with a shiny form, enveloped Jasum, and his body also enlarged one and a half times. Through the power of darkness generated by Jasum, his strength increased severalfold.

As Nora was thrown, Alicia and Lao were already close to Jasum. Alicia exploded the ground beneath Jasum, and needle-like energy shot upward. The energy needles enveloped Jasum, who had already transformed rapidly. Jasum's entire body seemed to be enveloped in energy at Alicia's direction.

From the skies of Dompai, a barrage of attacks triggered by the energy needles ensnared Jasum.

Lao did the same, using his two discs to combine all the energy discs created by the shadows surrounding Jasum. They were all connected like threads of energy. Lao directed them all to attack Jasum from the side, spinning, continuing to spin, closing the distance. The attacks struck Jasum's entire body of darkness.

Blaaaaar! Blaaaaar! Bang!

The attack from above was like thousands of lightning bolts triggered by the energy needles attached to Jasum's body. Furthermore, thousands of energy discs attacking from the sides all converged, forming a massive explosion that dazzled everyone and caused them to cover their eyes.

The warriors even channeled energy into their bodies to avoid being hit by the energy splashes from the two massive sisters, Lao and Gayatri.

Moments later, Gayatri and Lao dropped to the floor. Exhausted, they struggled to recover the energy they had expended earlier. They seemed to be having difficulty catching their breath.

As the energy splashes began to dissipate, and the scene before them became clear, only the dark outline of Jasum's figure remained, still not entirely clear.

Had their combo attack succeeded?

"Ha... ha... ha..., not bad! You've entertained me! I am Jasum, someone considered one level below the Five Gates. You've entertained me!" Jasum's grinning laughter seemed to further weaken the warriors' courage.

Jasum stood tall, merely rubbing the few parts of his body that had been hit by Lao and Gayatri's powerful attacks. However, he looked unharmed, seemingly suffering only minor scratches.

The warriors were already exhausted; they had already unleashed their full strength.

"Now it's my turn!" Jasum shouted.

The magnificent, dark armor suddenly vanished, its speed difficult to follow with the naked eye. This speed truly made the warriors alert and stay in place.

Slaash!

In an instant, Jasum was near Lao, only two meters away. A powerful blow of dark energy immediately struck Lao's head. Lao quickly dodged with his remaining strength. But it was too late; his movement was only a few centimeters, but Jasum's blow seemed very close to his head.

Lao seemed unable to dodge any longer; perhaps this was the end. Was it so difficult to defeat the dark forces that had killed his parents? And, was this the end? Lao closed his eyes.

Slaap!

Jasum's eyes widened instantly, the speed he had used was difficult for the warriors to keep up with. Now, the powerful blow was blocked by a strong hand. Someone came, power radiating from their grip. Jasum's attack couldn't continue, its energy dampened by the powerful force.

To Jasum's right, a simple man appeared, blocking the blow with an open palm. The young man halted his attack in an instant. Moments ago, Jasum had sensed no one approaching. However, just as his hand was about to reach the head of one of the warriors, the figure suddenly appeared seemingly out of thin air to his right.

This was no ordinary warrior!

Woosh!

Jasum vanished like a cloud of darkness and retreated backward. He vanished again at high speed, reappearing some distance from Lao. Lao opened his eyes, and Aji was already at his left side, shielding him with his right hand.

"Yo... You... thank you," Lao stammered in shock. He hadn't expected to survive such a swift blow.

Aji lowered his hand, and at the other end, Jasum stood, his body surrounded by black clouds and his teeth chattering. His eyes glowed red, and his body, encased in dark armor, seemed to flicker with blackness.

Aji lowered his right hand, looked at Lao, and then turned to Alicia, "From here on, I'll take over. You guys recover your strength and help Barsha."

Aji stepped forward confidently, preparing to face Jasum, who had already fully transformed into his demon form. The secret of Demon Transformation wasn't long-lasting; the transformation pushed the bodies of the Demon Lord's followers to their limits. They could usually only last two or three hours. When they enter Demon Transformation, they become several times stronger.

"But Aji, he's so strong! We'll..." Lao was still trying to help Aji.

Gayatri leaped towards her brother, "Enough, Brother, let's retreat. We'll only bother Aji if we force him to help us. This time, let's just entrust the enemy to him." Gayatri nodded reassuringly to Lao.

Lao finally didn't dare protest any longer, and Gayatri helped Lao out of the way. Lao was truly exhausted from using his full strength. The transformation of the dark warriors into demon transformations indeed made them several times stronger than before.

They moved away from Aji. Aji stepped forward again, his eyes fixed on Jasum. "Do you want the Dragon Heart?"

Jasum was surprised by the young man's bold statement and smiled. "Good boy, hand over the Dragon Heart, and I'll spare your life."

Aji smiled, "Can you, followers of darkness, trust the words of your followers? As far as I know, you always break your promises."

"Insolent! Hand over the Dragon Heart before I tear your body to shreds!"

Aji remained calm, "I'll hand over the Dragon Heart to you if you can defeat me!" There was a calmness in Aji's words, and he remained unmoved and expressionless.

"Ha... ha... ha..." Jasum's laughter grew louder, like a joke to him. How could this young man dare to challenge him? Hadn't he just seen all his comrades become nothing but mosquitoes in the face of his dark power?

All the warriors surrounding Aji and Jasum seemed to be recovering their strength as they watched the two men converse. Was Aji so bold as to challenge Jasum, who had already used Demon Transformation, and even sent them flying so easily?

Lao sat down and regained his breath. "Are you sure Aji can handle that Jasum alone?"

When asked about this, Gayatri's eyes lit up. "Don't worry, brother. Aji isn't someone you can underestimate just by his appearance. He's very mysterious, and even his energy is undetectable. We'll know for sure when we see him fight."

If Gayatri had already said that someone's abilities were extraordinary, then there must be something unique about Aji's powers. Lao was curious about Aji's true abilities.
