Some tentacles, unable to reach the weapon, simply pulled it out with their bare hands.

Before a high-level demon of the Shadow Realm could react, he was swept up and used as a weapon to be smashed down.

In this situation, the high-ranking demon unleashed all sorts of powers.

However, the power that erupted did not harm Atata's shadow tentacles in the slightest. Instead, it was channeled by some force, which enhanced the power of this 'weapon'.

In just this one moment, the value exceeded five thousand.

At least dozens of tentacles were waving around Atata at that moment.

The most important part is that there are shadows condensing within the hands, a different kind of black.

Chapter 437 The Way of Shadow Values

Once the Lords' War begins, for the remaining demons, it's a battle royale where the circle begins to shrink.

At this point, it's not about anything else but luck.

Within their own territory, a demon lord's stats can generally be boosted to about three times, which is around three thousand.

Three times the value is enough to completely overwhelm a high-level demon with extreme values.

Furthermore, these high-ranking demons live in their territory, and over time, the rules of that territory have more or less influenced them.

For example, in the territory of the Twin Demons, even the high-ranking demons themselves may not be aware that a 'second' version of themselves may have silently appeared in their consciousness.

Therefore, when it comes to a critical moment, Alalos can grab a high-level demon and devour it as a weapon or a supplement.

With numerical differences, hidden special abilities, and various other methods, those high-level demons who happen to encounter them basically have no chance of escape.

If you're unlucky, there's nothing you can do; in the abyss, cannibalism is blatantly real.

What needs to be done now is to participate in the war, preserve your own usefulness as much as possible, and then seize that one in ten thousand chance at the crucial moment.

Clown King laughed heartily on the side, drawing dozens of cards from his hand.

On the other side, the Black Prison Master was shrouded in some kind of black mist and instantly disappeared from everyone's sight.

However, faintly visible black lines appeared between heaven and earth.

Seeing this, Clown King flicked his hand, and cards flew out.

Some of the cards disappeared after they were launched.

Some cards, during flight, rapidly absorb various scarlet energies, turning the entire card red.

Some, however, arrived in front of Alalos in a flash.

Without any pause, a large number of fluctuations had already occurred.

A wave rapidly formed in the space around Alalos, making him feel as if he were sinking into water, or as if an earthquake was occurring. But it wasn't just the earth shaking; everything was shaking.

Straight lines and curves change, and everything becomes distorted.

The shadowy tentacles that Atata was swinging at from not far away seemed to still be some distance away.

The result, however, arrived in the blink of an eye after a few fluctuations.

This is the effect of the "Joker" card: it alters the space around the target, thus interfering with the distance.

The most important aspect of combat is judging distance; a mistake in this area will only lead to certain death.

Piedmon's primary ability is 'Transformation', but he also possesses a number of spatial abilities.

Alalos looked slightly surprised, but he was not flustered; his eyes seemed to be flashing with the future.

The next moment, a certain future dimmed, sealed in His eyes by cause and effect.

A black, vertical line spread out, about to take effect, but was intercepted by some force.

Without this interception, Alalos waved his hand and collided with those tentacles.

Araros was instantly blown to bits.

However, the next moment, another Alallos emerged from nowhere and appeared behind Atata.

With his hand shaped like a claw, he thrust forward, piercing Atata's body.

Forbidden Flesh and Blood Magic: The Reversal!

The Saint had been hit by this move before, which almost cost him his life. If Saint Nai hadn't saved him with a sword strike, the Saint might not have had the chance to exchange injury for injury.

This time, however, Atata's mind did not tremble, unlike the saint who had been corrupted by the angel Nai's literature.

He had already sensed the problem when Alaros's claw came at him.

Then his body instantly turned into a shadow and disappeared.

Atata is the strongest of the four demon lords. He was able to do this entirely because he had completely sunk and merged a small shadow plane into his 263rd layer.

At this point, His control over the shadows greatly increased, and He used this to condense two or three powerful shadow authorities.

In terms of numbers, shadows are far inferior to those top-tier traits; they can only be considered an ordinary attribute.

It's only slightly rarer than common elemental properties like water and fire, that's all.

But precisely because of this, Atata is even stronger.

High-end attributes are powerful, but they are also extremely difficult to improve.

For example, Alalos's causal abilities, from their initial formation to the present, have enhanced his understanding of causality.

However, the ordinary attribute of shadow is different. This attribute is not strong enough, but it can be improved very quickly.

In addition, a shadow plane has sunk, so the upper limit is not too low.

This also allows for the integration of space-related capabilities, thus creating a shadow space.

Therefore, when choosing attributes, high-end attributes are indeed the entry ticket to high-end battlefields, but that does not mean that ordinary attributes cannot produce masters.

Essentially, the characteristics of high-end attributes are like a powerful special move.

If you have it, and use it well, it might be the decisive factor that brings immediate victory.

However, even without that, as long as one's various abilities are brought to their peak, every move will have immense power and a high tolerance for error, and one will not be afraid of those high-end attributes.

Atata was in this state at that moment, the power of the shadows flowing with His will.

The shadow rules are fully implemented, without any of those fancy external features.

Isn't this also a kind of numerical approach?

Beneath the immense shadow, He vanished in an instant, and Alalos's chance to counterattack, gained through the "Dual Life" trait, slipped away.

The next moment, a large number of shadows rose from the ground, like a giant mouth about to swallow Alalos whole.

Countless shadowy tentacles churned within the giant maw, and faint spatial fluctuations emanated from within.

In the Path of Shadows, Atata claims to be second to none, though this title is limited to those below the Mythic level.

Among mythical beings and deities, there may be related beings, but Atata dares not compare himself to them.

However, at present, only those related entities that are either ancient or mythical, or both ancient and mythical, can surpass Him.

At that moment, the other Joker cards of the Joker King flew over.

The Clown King's abilities mainly focus on the versatile functions brought by the Clown Trick, the eerie functions of "Nursery Rhyme", and his direct attack abilities are basically concentrated on the Joker card.

Besides that, his skill with throwing knives was quite good.

On the other side, the Black Prison Master, whose 'phenomenon' of emerging from the shadows had been sealed by the power of causality, has also 'broken free' from his restraints and finally joined the battle.

A large number of vertical and horizontal black bars suddenly appeared, and several black bars, no different from those that Nemus and the others had cut down before, were inserted, restricting Alalos's movement space and preventing him from escaping the range of the giant shadow maw.

At that moment, the Joker card also approached, transforming into sharp blades that pierced Alalos's body.

Chapter 438 Feigning Death

"Get ready to make your move!" Jeff said from the side.

Given the current situation, the Gemini Demons are likely to lose.

Demons are the most greedy; they would never just want to divide the 333 floors equally, but would want to have one all to themselves.

Therefore, the moment the Twin Demons lose, a civil war will definitely break out.

The interdimensional war will end when one side loses, but that's only the bare minimum.

For demons, what they want most is for their own side to devour the other three!

Once they've secured the retreat of one family, all they ever want to do is take more and more.

Jeff's judgment was very accurate.

As numerous shadowy tentacles spread and entangled Alalos, they were then swallowed whole.

During this process, the Black Prison Lord's black fence locked off external spatial changes, preventing Alalos from escaping in space and time.

The flying swords summoned by the Joker card locked onto Alalos's consciousness the moment they pierced through.

Even if His "Dual Life" is not currently in a state of cooldown, He can still lock His consciousness and soul, preventing Him from escaping death by breaking free of His consciousness.

In other words, the start of the war is the decisive battle.

After testing the waters a few times and determining the numerical characteristics, he then directly used his killing move.

The twin demons Alallos continue to change, but under the double blockade, they have nowhere to escape.

During this process, a strong aura of taboo emerged from Alalos, as if he was trying to use taboo to break free from constraints.

However, all of this is just wishful thinking.

Both the Clown King and the Black Prison Master use their own special abilities, which cannot be broken in a short time.

If it is not destroyed, then only death awaits Alalos.

The shadowy tentacles moved, and an extremely dense flow of shadow instantly covered everything.

The seemingly endless stream of shadows surged and annihilated, and Alalos's body, caught in their midst, instantly dissipated into particles.

The magnitude of this shadow change cannot be described in terms of multipliers.

Or rather, these shadow forces are not on a scale that Atata's individual numerical flow could create.

Instead, the shadows of the entire shadow plane flowed along with it, and Atata's personal numerical power merely acted as a switch in the process.

The shadow value of a complete shadow plane is at least in the hundreds of thousands.

Although the power is not concentrated, it is enough to completely obliterate an individual with a value of only one thousand, which, even when multiplied to its maximum, would only amount to around six thousand.

After annihilating Alaros, the giant shadowy maw did not stop, but continued to grow larger, eventually covering both the Black Prison Lord and the Clown King within it.

Upon seeing this, Clown King chuckled and his body disappeared into the box.

The Black Prison Master's figure flickered and disappeared into nothingness.

Conversely, on the battlefield, all the high-ranking demons were in dire straits.

Most of them didn't have time to react before their bodies were engulfed by the black shadow.

In particular, the high-ranking demons under the Clown King's command had some faint patterns on their bodies, which allowed the Shadow to accurately locate these high-ranking demons when it made its move.

This was the agreement reached after a period of discussion between the Clown King and Atta.

After the interdimensional war, these high-level demons reached their numerical limits, but also gained a large number of traits by killing many other demons.

If their strength increases rapidly, they become more difficult to manage.

Since that's the case, then we might as well sell it.

Although the contract is not unbreakable, it is difficult to break in a short period of time.

Therefore, once these high-ranking demons are devoured by Atata, the Clown King can take advantage of the contract's effect to disengage from the battle and take away the territory gained in the war, safely securing it for himself.

As for whether Atata will swallow the Black Prison Lord whole or whether the Black Prison Lord will successfully escape with the spoils of war, that depends on their own abilities and skills.

But the next moment, the Clown King sensed something was wrong.

He was able to retreat from the dimensional battlefield, but his position as lord was now experiencing violent tremors.

If He truly retreats, then all of His territory will be lost.

There is only one explanation for this result—
