Titan King: Ascensio Chapter 733: Eye of Truth

Chapter 733: Eye of Truth

Amidst the roars, Dirtclaw’s body tensed, his fur bristling. His cold eyes scanned his surroundings, specifically targeting the enemies’ necks, limbs, and heads.

Slightly to the rear, in the cavalry regint’s designated combat zone, lay the domain of Thundar and Fergus.

The demonic wolves, Windfoot Freaks, petrifying lizards, and Hellhound Knights that broke through the first line of defense were all their enemies.

With the help of his dark fiend mount, Thundar fought with relative ease.

At least, when faced with physical bites and tears, the dark fiend beneath him showed no fear, often managing to counter-kill its assailants.

However, when demonic wolves, cloaked in Fire and howling as they activated ghostly stride, charged into his combat range, Thundar found himself embroiled in a bitter struggle.

And it didn’t end there. Next ca the Windfoot Freaks, capable of unleashing wind blades, and hellhounds wreathed in hellfire, causing Thundar’s dark fiend mount imnse suffering.

This was a battlefield; even in agony, one had to grit their teeth and fight on.

Elsewhere, Fergus, mounted on his abyssal dragon Nyther, was faring slightly better.

Although Nyther was not immune to damage, it had awakened a devour-type skill upon its advancent to the Alpha level.

By continuously fighting and feeding simultaneously, Fergus’s abyssal dragon could constantly heal itself.

Empowered by this ability, Fergus had also managed to slay a considerable number of formidable enemies.

In a more distant part of the battlefield, Onyx had also appeared.

After Orion had finished slaughtering the dark fiends and chosen to head north, Onyx had joined the combat troops.

Mounted on his Dark Armored Beetle, Onyx swung his great axe in wide, powerful arcs; few enemies could even get near him.

Coupled with Onyx’s peak Alpha-level strength, the area he defended was truly impregnable.

This was a battle between Alpha-level combatants, but around them, before them, and behind them, countless cave spiders and wolf-mounted cavalry were falling.

Many of the summoned skeleton warriors were also being blasted apart, reduced to piles of dry bones.

From ti to ti, wyverns would be struck in vital spots by the wind blades of the Windfoot Freaks, plumting from the sky to be trampled and devoured, becoming offerings to the carnage.

This battlefield had thoroughly and utterly transford into a Shura field.

From the highest echelons to the lowest ranks, combat was omnipresent, a brutal reality for all involved.

Within the unknown void, inside the Dreamscape Barrier.

Bang! Bang! Bang! The sounds echoed incessantly as the eight fire dragons, under Leonidas’s command, self-destructed one after another, attempting to kill the endlessly approaching bloodsucking demons.

However, such mass explosions proved to be of little use.

The number of bloodsucking demons only seed to increase, an inexhaustible tide.

"Bro, continuing this attrition isn’t a solution," Orion said to Leonidas.

"Clearly, those two sinister fellows want to exhaust our transcendent power."

Leonidas replied, "My avatar has many limitations. In a mont, I’ll focus on blocking these illusions; you strike and kill the enemy’s true body."

"Rember, be fast, the faster the better!"

As he spoke, Leonidas gestured with his claws, and low, guttural dragon roars sounded continuously.

That was draconic magic; Leonidas was employing his own thods.

A virtual eye materialized in Leonidas’s hand. It was golden yellow, its gaze cold and indifferent.

Leonidas explained, "Bro, this is the Eye of Truth. It can see through illusions cast even by demigods, but it only lasts for three minutes."

Under Leonidas’s control, the virtual eye flew into Orion’s own eyes, and Orion’s irises temporarily turned a golden yellow.

Having the Eye of Truth empower him was an incredibly magical sensation.

It was difficult to describe, ineffable.

However, as Orion’s gaze swept across their surroundings, all the illusions vanished. Only a single bloodsucking demon remained, appearing directly in front of Leonidas and Orion.

Under normal circumstances, when unsure of an enemy’s position, most would instinctively guard their rear, above, and below.

For this bloodsucking demon to appear directly in front of them was a deceptive tactic, yet also a correct choice, and furthermore, a display of intelligence.

Orion’s first thought was that this bloodsucking demon before them was either being controlled by soone or possessed independent thought and cunning.

And it wasn’t over. As Orion scanned his surroundings, in the far, far distance, he spotted the presence of Arch Lords Lestat and Kian.

However, now was not the ti to cause trouble for those two, because if Orion left, Leonidas would lose the enhancent of the Eye of Truth.

At that mont, Leonidas would be in great danger.

Orion slowly exhaled. The blood-type transcendent power within his body surged into the Fla of Will on his trident.

The fla on the trident, thus empowered, burned with exceptional vigor and swiftly transford into a blood-red conflagration.

The flas spread upwards, enveloping Orion’s entire body.

The next mont, Orion activated Titan Form. His physique enlarged, and his entire body’s strength surged explosively.

Aura Lock, Swift Charge, Berserk Aura, Instant Impact—all four skills were activated simultaneously. Orion vanished from Leonidas’s back in an instant.

The next mont, blood-red sparks flashed violently in the distance, and a powerful shockwave rippled outwards.

Leonidas, who had been blocking the illusions, seed to receive a signal. With a furious roar, flas erupted from his entire body, and he too charged towards the spot where Orion had engaged the enemy.

The monster there was the bloodsucking demon’s true body.

"They found the bloodsucking demon’s true body?" Arch Lord Kian exclaid from afar. For Orion to accurately strike the bloodsucking demon and inflict such heavy damage upon it was sothing Kian found hard to believe.

Because he felt that if he were in Orion’s position, he would not have been able to achieve it.

Lestat’s voice was sowhat subdued. "Perhaps not just that. He might have discovered our presence too." Orion’s earlier scan had given him a feeling of being utterly exposed.

Under that gaze, Lestat felt as if he were completely naked, as if even his innermost emotions and thoughts had been seen through one by one.

"Impossible, right?" Kian questioned.

"We were likely seen through," Lestat confird. "That dragon used what should be the Eye of Truth. I saw this draconic magic long, long ago."

"Then what do we do now?" Kian asked.

Lestat’s voice was sinister. "No hurry. The bloodsucking demon is an extrely powerful creature. It won’t be killed so easily."

His purpose in using the God Blood was precisely to exhaust Orion and Leonidas, to force these two to reveal more of their trump cards.

Now that this objective had been achieved, the later the bloodsucking demon died in battle, the more advantageous it would be for him.

When the ti ca for him and Kian to strike, it would be that much easier.

Pinning down an enemy, then killing or capturing them when they were at their weakest—this was what Lestat enjoyed doing most.

Far away, within the Dreamscape Barrier.

The bloodsucking demon was heavily injured by Orion, its chest blasted open with a gaping hole six feet in diater.

However, as countless streams of black blood spurted out and writhed, the wound on the bloodsucking demon’s body began to heal at a rapid pace.

Seizing this opportunity, the bloodsucking demon grabbed Orion’s trident. Blood-red magical runes flowed out from its body, bizarrely spreading towards Orion’s trident.

The runes crawled up the trident like sharks that had scented blood, rapidly surging towards Orion’s body.

"Be careful! Don’t touch those runes!" Leonidas’s voice ca from nearby.

Orion let out a furious roar. Battle Will Surge activated; the wave barrier that had been rged with his body appeared, repelling all the bizarre runes.
