Chapter 1787: First Two Down
Chapter 1787: First Two Down
Well, in reality, deep down, Rean and Roan were quite bored with Xanmica and Grumol. In the end, those two were similar to the average level of cultivators and demon beasts that were here in the competition. Rean and Roan could have defeated them quite easily, but they also had to lure them away, just in case.
Eventually, several tens of kilometers away from any of the armies, the twins finally stopped running. “Well, that should be enough.”
Xanmica and Grumol were taken aback by the twins’ sudden halt. However, that didn’t mean they would stop their attacks. It might have been a problem if they had killed Jamai Sect’s disciples, but there was no such concern about the two subordinates.
‘Meteoric Hammer!’
‘Lightning Strain!’
The two launched themselves against Rean and Roan, aiming to finish the battle as fast as possible. Of course, they knew that Rean and Roan were only one stage of cultivation lower than themselves. They didn’t expect to win easily and would have to use quite a lot of their power. With that in mind, Rean and Roan might really be able to escape because of that. And so, they didn’t hold back.
However…
‘Life Style, First Form, Enhancement!’
‘Death Style, First Defensive Form, Reversive Arcs!’
The sound of attacks clashing against each other didn’t appear. Instead, the Reversive Arcs’ Dark Element completely destroyed the Divine Energy and Elements behind the enemies’ attacks, dissipating any threat.
“What?!” Xanmica had a bad premonition. After all, Rean and Roan nullified their full strength attack way too easily! “Get away!”
However, it was already too late.
‘Death Style, First Form, Stellar Piercer!’
‘Life Fire, First Form, Flame Emperor Slash!’
‘Scythe Intent!’
‘Sword Intent!’
Rean and Roan’s attacks swept forward, bringing Fire, Dark, and Light Elements to their maximum. Not only that, their new weapons, as well as their Space Powers, made the attacks even more powerful than before. Let alone the addition of weapon intents!
Xanmica and Grumol were terrified. The twins’ attacks were just too fast, and the power behind them was nothing they had ever seen a Transition Realm being use before.
*Pkkkhht!*
*Crash!*
*Shatter!*
Grumol and Xanmica tried to use their weapons to defend while increasing their Divine Energy output to the maximum. However, the difference in the level of equipment as well as the user’s raw powers was simply gigantic. Both their weapons got pierced or destroyed straight away, leaving their bodies open for attacks.
*Arrrghh!*
Sure enough, none of them could defend against the twins’ raw power and weapons. Rean and Roan didn’t hold back either and aimed to kill their opponents. Since their opponents were trying to kill them, so did Rean and Roan.
Seeing that they easily got rid of Himisve’s subordinates, Rean and Roan departed without looking back. Other than the elders watching the development through the monitoring formation over the continent, no one in the Free Continent saw what they did.
Roan then activated his Communication Badge and sent a message to Luina.
Luina was still retreating and fighting against Himisve. However, thanks to the communication system signal bending, it reached the battlefield they were in. Luina only spent a moment looking into the message and continued to retreat while she sent another message back. ‘I’m pretty much at the location already.’
Rean and Roan nodded and increased their speed to the area where Kentucky’s group was lying in wait. Sure, Luina had her strength and Rean’s weapon, as well as Rean’s Enhancement Skill. She probably could stand her ground in a head-on battle against Himisve for a while. However, that wasn’t enough. They had to make Hmisive do the Sect’s Oath and make him their subordinate.
“How far do you intend to keep running? Didn’t you attack my country? Or could it be that you allied with someone else?” asked Himisve as he pressed forward.
“Haha!” Luina laughed in response. “You know better than anyone else that alliances could very much be your downfall. Someone that I ally with might enter in contact with you, and both of you could take me down instead since I have lower cultivation. Do you think I’m an idiot? I’m a long-range cultivator. All I need is to keep my distance and wait for your Divine Energy to run out. Don’t celebrate your victory too soon.”
“Hahaha!” Himisve laughed in response. “Do you think my Divine Energy would run out so quickly like that? You seem to not understand the difference in Divine Energy reserves between the Initial and Peak stages of our realms.”
‘Twin Fire Dragon Sabers!’
Suddenly, the power of Himisve’s attack increased even more. His arms that held the two sabers transformed into two fire dragons that pulled him as they charged against Luina. “Try to run away from this!”
Luina didn’t panic, though. Immediately, all her flying stars retreated to her side before creating a shield in front of her.
‘Flying Star Reflection!’
*Boom, boom!*
The shockwave launched Luina further back, but that was basically it.
“Those are quite some good weapons,” said Hismive, surprised that Luina’s flying stars were able to resist his Twin Fire Dragon Sabers. He knew the power behind that attack very well. “As expected of the daughter of one of the high elders. Your mother really prepared some good stuff for you.”
Luina smiled as her flying stars resumed their attacks. “Do you think so?” Little did he know that Luina’s previous flying stars would probably have been damaged by that attack. Fortunately, these new ones were made by Rean.
One might be wondering why Himisve’s sabers aren’t being damaged instead. After all, Rean’s flying stars were supposed to be much stronger. The reason was very simple, the cultivation difference. Himisve’s sabers were a lot more protected thanks to his higher control over space and Divine Energy. The fact that Luina’s flying stars matched his saber with that cultivation difference was proof of the superiority of Rean’s weapons.
Luina then looked below and faintly smiled. ‘We’re finally here!’
Himisve’s Divine Sense then caught the twins’ presence, slowly heading in his direction. “Hmm? Did Grumol and Xanmica lose to those two?” Obviously, that was the first thought in his mind.
