Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

"That doesn\'t seem to be the case for now." the Second Holy Lord sighed. "Ninth is going all out from the start. The kid really can\'t win."

"We can\'t do anything about it. He should\'ve come prepared," the third Holy Lord scoffed. "With just this kind of ability, the kid made us take a Heavenly Oath. He really overestimated himself. Even if he fails now, he can only blame himself."

"That\'s true. But I don\'t think it\'s that simple. Just look at the kid. Even in this situation, he\'s so calm. It doesn\'t look like he\'s faking his calmness." The first Holy Lord smiled. "I wonder where his confidence comes from."

"I guess we\'ll know soon enough." The Second Lord also took great interest in the battle. It wasn\'t often they got to see that. "I\'m really curious about the level of present day mages."

The battle between the Ninth Holy Lord and Gabriel, who was supposed to be the tenth Holy Lord of Light, began.

Right at the start, the Ninth Holy Lord went all out. His body split up in ten. The spell was quite similar to the spell that Izen had used in a battle against Gabriel. All the ten clones had the same aura and looked the same. Moreover, all ten of them could use the same level of strength!

If anything, Guo\'s control over this spell was even stronger than Izen!

The ten clones of Guo surrounded Gabriel and it was unclear which one of them was the real Ninth Holy Lord.

"This thing again!" Gabriel scowled, seeing the same thing again which had troubled him so much last time.

He boosted his strength, speed and endurance simultaneously before casting a flight spell. Finally in the battlefield, he was able to use his Spells of Light. There was no restriction here.

His body rose in the sky. Unfortunately, at the same time, a rope made of white light appeared around his ankles, pulling him straight back to the ground.

Just as his body was about to be smashed on the ground, Gabriel cast protection spells around him.

A spherical barrier appeared around him. The barrier hit the ground, leaving a deep crater behind. Inside the Barrier, Gabriel was still perfectly fine

Gabriel didn\'t have any of his items inside this place. He didn\'t even have the Sword of Ulien to cut the ropes around his ankles. Fortunately, he had learned how to create swords with his own energy.

Specks of light gathered around his right hand. A sword made from the aura of Light took shape. Gabriel swung the Sword, cutting the shackles around his ankles.

Unfortunately, the time he wasted in cutting the shackles and protecting himself from the fall, Guo had already taken action.

A mountain appeared above Gabriel\'s head. The mountain looked like a treasure that was real and unreal at the same time. It had the weight of a real mountain at least.

The mountain came down. As soon as it touched Gabriel\'s barrier, the barrier shattered immediately.

Thump!

The earth trembled as the barrier smashed on the ground, right where Gabriel was standing. None saw Gabriel step out of the way. It was clear to everyone that this was the end of Gabriel.

Even the Holy Lords in the sky frowned. It was clear that Gabriel was at a disadvantage but the battle still ended too soon. Something didn\'t seem right! Just as they were looking at each other in confusion, they sensed something. All their expressions changed, turning much darker.

A dark aura spread in the surroundings.

"The difference between one with an Ancestral Staff and one without isn\'t something that could be overcome so easily..." Guo was internally mocking Gabriel for thinking so highly of himself only to die so soon. "Let alone the fact that even if you had the Ancestral Staff, you couldn\'t win! You really thought you were something, weren\'t you?"

"Is an Ancestral Staff so important?" A cold voice came from a distance, making Guo monetarily freeze in shock! This voice... It was Gabriel.

His expressions darkened as he turned around, noticing Gabriel standing in the distance. Gabriel looked perfectly fine as if he wasn\'t hurt at all. What was even more shocking was that his aura was unstable and it was only getting stronger.

Gabriel knew that Guo wasn\'t lying. Even though Cylix was a powerful mage who taught Gabriel and was defeated by him, it was also partially because Cylix didn\'t do his best. Cylix also didn\'t have an Ancestral Staff! Moreover, Gabriel was allowed to use his Element of Darkness in that battle, which had helped him win.

Unfortunately, it was different with Guo. Not only wasn\'t Guo not going easy, but it instead looked as if the guy really wanted to trample him under his feet. He was also using the Ancestral Staff!

"Of course an Ancestral Staff is important!" The ninth Holy Lord scoffed. "But you can just forget about it! After you lose, you will never become a Holy Lord! You\'ll never get an Ancestral Staff! You\'ll always be an ant!"

Guo called Gabriel arrogant. However, from his tone, it was clear just how much arrogance he personally had.

"I wanted to avoid this if possible." Gabriel\'s voice was low, but still, everyone here was able to hear each of his words clearly. "But since you\'ve already said that you won\'t let me get an Ancestral Staff, I\'d like to see how you keep your words!"

The Dark Aura around Gabriel suddenly strengthened a lot. Seeing that dark aura, all the Holy Lords were shocked! This wasn\'t the aura of someone who was just working with the Dark Mages! It was instead the aura of...

"I can\'t hold one Ancestral Staff?" Gabriel asked as his voice became louder. A mocking gaze appeared in his eyes.

He raised his left hand toward the sky. The dark aura around his left hand intensified and started taking shape. Within seconds, a pitch black staff appeared in Gabriel\'s hand!

Seeing the Ancestral Staff, all the Holy Lords took a step back in shock. It wasn\'t their first time seeing this staff! They all knew what this Staff was!

"Ancestral Staff of Darkness!" The ninth Holy Lord exclaimed.

Gabriel wasn\'t done either.

"The difference between one with an Ancestral Staff is big. What about the difference between one with an Ancestral Staff and one with two?" Gabriel\'s cold voice penetrated deep inside everyone\'s heart here as he raised his right hand. The space trembled as if a god was being invited into this lowly place!
