The crimson blades kept ripping through the void, creating many void fragments.
If Marvin didnât dodge well enough, even if he wasnât cut down by the blade, he would be torn apart by the fragments.
Marvin calmly reacted at the crucial moment.
Under the rain of attacks from the withered corpse, a dazzling light burst out of his body.
Shapeshift Sorcerer â Diamond Shape!
Eight seconds of extremely high resistance to physical attacks!
A shiny layer of light covered his body. If not for his clothes being more suitable for a rogue, he would have looked like a Monk using [Unbreakable Diamond]!
Countless void fragments hit Marvinâs body, but they only seemed like a spring breeze blowing on the surface of a peaceful lake. Besides faint ripples, there was nothing else.
Marvinâs hands moved like lightning, grabbing at the corpse!
He had waited patiently while coming up with a countermeasure against the Spirit. Now he burst out at this moment!
His right hand grabbed the corpseâs withered wrist and used the skill learned from the Elven Prince!
The wrist pulled away from Marvinâs hand and the blade struck at him again, going straight for Marvinâs neck!
Marvin frowned. Despite Diamond Shape being active, it wasnât the true Unbreakable Diamond skill!
If those frightening daggers really cut his body, he would still be hurt.
His silhouette suddenly disappeared before reappearing, dodging this blade in this moment of life and death.
Then, his thrust his hands out once again!
The first time didnât work, so he would try it again.
This was Marvinâs only hope for victory!
This time, perhaps because he added an extra movement, Marvin managed to get some results.
His left hand grabbed the back of the corpseâs hand, and his right foot struck suddenly from an extremely crafty angle!
Marvinâs right leg hit the left arm of the corpse!
There was a crisp sound, and although that arm hadnât been fractured, it went slightly limp for a moment.
[Edge Snatch successful!]
The scarlet dagger immediately landed in Marvinâs hand.
A powerful force rushed through his mind, making him feel like he was about to explode!
A crazy voice echoed in his mind, âYou dare covet my legacy?!â
âIâll dismember you into thousands of pieces!â
âYou can become my slave, and fall into eternal oblivion!â
Marvin inwardly sneered and answered, âIâm afraid not, Your Majesty.â
âThe former you might have been able to, but right now, you donât have that kind of ability.â
âYou are just a poor Evil Spirit hiding in your old blades. You arenât even a true Spirit. What meaning is there to use this kind of method to keep a part of your consciousness?â
And Marvin didnât stay idle while they talked.
He also launched his counterattack.
Diamond Shape was soon going to disappear. He wanted to use this time land the final blow on that corpse!
After losing one of the daggers, the corpseâs movement slowed greatly. It didnât even seem to be at the Godly Dexterity boundary anymore.
Marvin went all-out, and after using Edge Snatch twice in a row, he managed to grab the other dagger!
That violently powerful force once again rushed through his chest, his brain, and every corner of his body!
It seemed almost like he was about to be swallowed by that power!
But Marvin still kept his wits about him.
He coldly watched the corpse.
It was only standing there, stiff and motionless.
âRumbleâŠâ An unpleasant sound came out of its throat.
The next moment, the body began to dry up very quickly.
Without the power of Sodomâs Blades to support it, this corpse was no different from other corpses!
Ultimately, it turned into a pile of bones, scattering among the rest of the bones in the area.
He really made the correct decision.
With how the Bloody Emperor was, how could he keep a part of his soul as a true Spirit? He wasnât a great character like the Night Monarch.
Thus, Marvin inferred that he must have put a part of his soul away somewhere.
And this place was very safe.
He immediately thought of those incredible daggers!
The Bloody Emperor likely had remaining affection toward his Artifact that had helped him so much, and the Sodom Blades were also considered to be among the best Artifacts.
He had most likely placed his Spirit in his daggers!
This was also why there was no reaction before Marvin tried to grab Sodomâs Blades. The Spirit only appeared when the daggers touched Marvinâs palm.
Because that was when he had been awakened by Marvin.
And now, Marvin forcibly snatched Sodomâs Blades by using Edge Snatch, leaving behind an empty, dessicated corpse.
The Spirit was still inside the Artifact!
Usually, ordinary people who didnât go through various protective rituals wouldnât dare touch a weapon with a Spirit inside.
After all, such a weapon would obey the Spirit unconditionally. It would be troublesome for Marvin to subdue Sodomâs Blades with the Spirit inside.
It was even possible that if he was careless, he would have his consciousness swallowed by the Spirit and become a living host!
But Marvin was very confident about this part.
Facing the Book of Nalu for all this time had made his willpower reach a very frightening level.
And with the addition of the Wisdom Chapter, his mental fortitude was no worse than that of the Gods.
Regardless of what the evil power tried to do to him, his mind wouldnât be influenced!
Marvin could feel that berserk, searing air burst from Sodomâs Blades, trying to attack his mind.
But unfortunately for the Bloody Emperor, whenever this power tried to attack, the countless runes floating there would automatically emit some soothing energy!
These runes were in the Ancient God Language and formed the contents of the Wisdom Chapter.

Marvin couldnât make sense of what they depicted, but they helped Marvin in their own way.
His willpower was unaffected despite the repeated attacks from the Bloody Emperorâs Spirit.
âGive up your futile struggles.â
A smile appeared in the corner of Marvinâs mouth as he jeered, âMaybe if you change your tone, I might accept.â
Suddenly, on the other side of the room, the Black Knightâs hulking form appeared out of the stone gate!
