Chapter 2393
Though James was ambushed, he had been secretly gathering strength to deal the death blow the moment Lucifer lowered his guard
After attacking, James copsed. Unable to hold on to Sacrilegious Ascension any longer, his spine which was formed using Empyrean Spiritual
Energy dissipated. Without the support of his spine, James could not even stand.
However, he could not copse. To copse now would mean that he had lost the battle, or at best fought to a draw.
He tried to roll over. However, as his spine was shattered, not to mention that his injuries were grave, he felt excruciating pain throughout his body the
moment he moved. Even though he had cultivated his physical body for a long time, he could not endure the pain.
So, hey on the ground and rested.
The Demonic Energy inside his body had yet to be depleted. Threads of Demonic Energy slowly rejuvenated his injuries. However, the Demonic
Energy was scarce. It was merely like a drop in the ocean. It was no use.
Hey on the pile of rubble and panted for breath.
Lucifer was the same. After forcibly catalyzing the Imperial Weapon and summoning its full strength, not to mention being injured by the Infinity Steles
and ambushed by James, he was already at his limit.
The two simplyy on the ground, motionless.
Upon seeing that the battle had died down, the living beings that were observing the battle summoned their courage and slowly approached the
battlefield.
After approaching the pile of rubble, they realized that both James and Lucifer were lying on the ground motionless.
“Master...”
A few beasts approached Lucifer and tried to help him up.
“Get lost!
Lucifer roared.
However, as he was in a weakened state, his voice was feeble.
Seeing this, the beasts backed off.
“Stand down!” Lucifer said, “How can I possibly be defeated by the likes of him?”
He leaned against a rock as he stood. However, the moment he stood, he copsed to the ground once more.
Though the beasts wanted to help him up. they did not dare to do so.
After a couple of minutes, Lucifer?
finally managed to stand up. Staritg
into the distance, he noticed that
James was lying on the ground with
a group of people surrounding him.
However, no one helped him up as well.
“You have lost, James.”
Lucifer walked in James’ direction, staggering and stumbling his way toward him.
James’ injuries were simply too
grave, notto mention that he had~
lost hig Spine. As such, he could not
stand: However, he did not lose
consviousness and was abléto hear
Lueifer’s words.

However, he could not see him
In fact, he could only see the sky and a few familiar faces before him—the Blithe King, Henry, Diney, and Quincy.
As for the rest. he could not see their faces.
“Did Lucifer manage to stand?”
He asked in a feeble voice.
Seeing that no one answered him, he roared. “Answer me!”
However, his roar aggravated his injuries, and he vomited a mouthful of blood.
Quincy hurriedly said, “Y-Yes, he did.
Hearing this, James took a deep breath. That would mean he had lost.
“No, I cannot lose.”
He felt a strong conviction rising in his heart. If he lost. all of humanity would be doomed.
He tried getting up. However, as his.
body did not have the support of the
spine. the upper half of his body
simply would not budge. Content
