Inhuman Warlock-Chapter 1048 The Final Change

Lucifer's eyes narrowed as he observed the formation. He could feel the malicious intent behind it, the desire to eradicate him and anyone else who stood in their way.

As the formation activated, a surge of energy shot towards Lucifer, aiming to trap him within its confines while destroying everything in its path.

A terrifying dark energy covered the entire formation. The entire city was devoured, the citizens of the Holy City dying without even realizing what had happened. They only saw the burst of dark energy before everything was destroyed in its path.

In the blink of an eye, the dark energy devoured most of the city, soon reaching Lucifer in the center.

The Clan Leaders in the sky remained smug as they watched Lucifer on the verge of being devoured. For them, the battle was over before it even began.

Lucifer didn't remain idle either. For him, death wasn't an option. He could easily move back a few minutes in time after dying. However, he didn't intend to die this time.

He didn't want to let the Clan Leaders win even if it was just for a second. He wanted to crush them. He wanted to show them the might of the Ancient Clan that they had destroyed with treachery!

He wanted to show them why his Clan was the overlord of this Universe! He wanted to crush their hopes and make them feel the fear that they hadn't felt ever before.

Lucifer's eyes turned a darker shade of violet as his Ancient Bloodline was stimulated even more. The aura around him intensified like never before.

Two blood red horns made purely from the Bloodline Aura appeared on his forehead, a characteristic of the Ancient Clan that could only be seen in the Leader of the Ancient Clan in the past after their inheritance.

Even Lucifer didn't completely understand the process as to why he could achieve this when the Inheritance was forever gone with his father's death. But at the moment, he felt that there was a voice inside his heart.

Lucifer closed his eyes as the dark aura of the formation reached closer. It was as if time itself had stopped at that moment.

In the moment, he felt a strange feeling of peace and serenity that he never felt before. It was the feeling that he had almost forgotten in the past.

It was a feeling he had when his mother used to hold him in his arms... It was an indescribable feeling.

He felt as if in this moment, he was truly back in time to the moment where he used to live with his real family in the Ancient Clan, his father joking with him and teaching him how to use some of his skills.

He felt as if his father and mother were standing right behind him, whispering in his ears that they love him.

Not just the time around Lucifer, but the time around the entire universe had stopped in the moment.

Talia had entered the universe with her people and now she was flying towards Lucifer's aura at full speed, but along the way, she felt something. She was also frozen in time with her clan members.

The ordinary people were frozen in time, unable to even realize that they were frozen. Even their minds had stopped working. Talia was different.

Her mind wasn't frozen and she could still think, but she couldn't move at all, as if she was under some strange restrictions of time and space.

As she and her people were frozen, her Ring that she had brought with her started shining, covering her in some nourishing aura. Thanks to the ring, she was finally freed of the restrictions of time.

Unfortunately, her expressions were as grim as they could be, since she realized what it meant for her to be frozen in time.

She used the ring to free her people, her expressions dark. "We need to hurry!"

Back in the Star Alliance World, Lucifer was going through a strange phenomenon that he himself had never seen before, even when he was in the Ancient Clan in his childhood.

The strange and unfamiliar core in his heart was also transforming. The core appeared to be melting inside his heart, merging with his flesh and blood.

The core that felt like an external object was slowly becoming a part of his body like never before.

The tattered clothes of Lucifer were destroyed in the process, revealing a new set of attire forming around his body.

As the clothes materialized, they exuded a radiant golden light, symbolizing a Clan Head of the Ancient Clan.

Although Lucifer hadn't seen this process before, but he knew this attire. It was the clothes that he had seen only his father wearing in the past.

Going through the change, Lucifer realized something. A single tear trickled down his cheeks as he felt his heart breaking in pain.

He had thought that this unknown core which could even resist Anti Magic was something he received from the broken statue of Talia. He thought it was something related to her inheritance.

It was only now he realized how wrong he had been. This unknown core wasn't part of Talia's inheritance. It also wasn't something he received from her statue. Instead, it had always been inside him, as if waiting for the moment when he was ready to inherit it.

This was a gift... A gift from his father the moment he was born. This was also something that had saved him from the explosion that had taken Talia's life in the Land of Inheritance.

The only reason this core had eventually shown up sooner was to save his life since his Healing alone wasn't enough to protect his life at that moment.

The only reason he couldn't control this core was because it had appeared before he was fully ready to save his life. The core that took everything from him... It was also what saved his life.
