Divine Path System

Boom!

The barrier stood no chance under Varian's attack and was directly broken. With wide eyes, the abyssal watched the hammer descend on him.

It wasn't the huge lightning hammer that was scary, it was the momentum that Varian carried and his strength which was stacked with that momentum to multiply the lethality of this hit.

As a lightning awakener, his body was his weak point. If he was hit, there's no way he could survive.

To survive, there's only one way left.

"Arghhh!" With a scream, the abyssal's body glowed a reluctant yellow.

Despite being seriously injured, he was still a level 7. So, he used the elementalization.

He thought he could be safe.

He was wrong.

The very next moment, the mental attacks on every other abyssal paused while the target abyssal immediately felt way more pain in his mind.

"Graah…"

His lightning body which was earlier perfect started to fluctuate violently and the next second, the hammer hit it from above.

Pa!

The abyssal's body crashed to the ground and was flattened to pieces of flesh and blood.

At the same time, Varian was confronted with the abyssals' attacks.

Using his telekinetic powers, he shifted his body and dodged a couple, but it was too late to do more.

Varian turned his body into the tree form and used his lightning, space, and telekinetic paths to create barriers.

The three barriers were bombarded by the barrage of attacks. They were broken soon but did their job.

So, Varian had to face only a couple of lightning spears and he managed to protect his vitals.

Boom!

Still, the attacks he bore were so strong that he was sent flying, and once again crashed the wall.

"Cough. Cough. Cough." Varian looked at the six small cavities spread across his wooden hands, chest, and legs.

He already took a potion. So, it and mainly his Plantae powers were working hard to heal him.

"Chop off his limbs! We don't want him killed." An abyssal roared.

Following his order, the abyssals condensed sharp lighting blades, capable of cutting down durable metals with ease.

"Teleportation ban sucks." Varian sighed lightly, but his eyes suddenly flashed a golden yellow.

"Heeeuk." He gasped as he felt a jolt of power surge inside him.

[Lightning Path Level 6: 1/6]

"Yes!" Varian roared and shot out of the wall like a raging bullet.

His body turned back to the human state, and almost immediately, the blood from his wounds began to gush out.

Varian didn't have the time to care. He must finish these abyssals as quickly as possible.

"Die!"

Once again, Varian condensed a lightning hammer and used his telekinetic powers to increase his speed.

But because he used his mental power to attack all the abyssals, everyone was only slightly affected.

Boom!

Boom!

Varian was once again sent flying after killing an abyssal.

His injuries worsened considerably.

The previous injuries weren't healed at all and he got bigger injuries.

The abyssals saw his increased injuries and sensed his weakening aura and smiled in joy.

"Give up!"

"Hahaha!"

"Dreamer, you're over now."

Varian once again jumped at them.

And just like last two times, he went with the lightning hammer-telekinetic momentum-mental power combination.

And because of his poor state and his unchanging routines in attacking, abyssals felt a surge of confidence.

So, except for the targetted abyssal, everyone else lowered their guard. Their barriers also came down.

They wanted to end this battle. So, they completely focused on offense.

A costly mistake.

As the abyssals were about to shoot their weapons at him, Varian suddenly kicked down in mid-air, and jumped up, catching everyone off guard.

And right then, his mental power suddenly shifted to three abyssals farthest from him.

The abyssals were caught off guard and blanked out for a moment. Immediately, an invisible telekinetic force broke their neck and ended their lives.

At the same time, the space around two abyssals suddenly exploded, crushing their hearts to pieces.

And Varian calmly landed far away.

Five abyssals were killed just like that.

Counting the first two attacks, a total of seven were killed.

Now, only twenty abyssals remained.

Compared to the twenty-nine he first faced, it's almost a 25% reduction.

So, when Varian attacked them again, the difficulty decreased greatly.

"You!"

"Stop!"

"You better Surrender!"

Kaaa!

Varian simply attacked.

Abyssals learned their lesson and didn't neglect their defensive barriers.

But it was already too late.

Varian stacked his Enhancer path's high speed, lightning path's temporary stat boost, and telekinetic path's mental power and dodged their attacks while maintaining his offensive.

It turned into a situation where their attacks couldn't hit him, but his attacks fully hit them. So, he took them down one by one, breaking their shields, fully exploiting his ability to stack powers.

Paa!

Kacha!

Varian used all his paths—body, space, lightning, morpher, telepath, and telekinetic.

As time passed, the abyssals turned fewer and fewer.

After some point, it was a cakewalk.

The abyssals were filled with despair. They tried escaping, they tried using their full force, their attacks even hit him a few times…though they felt that he let them hit him deliberately, but still, it was over.

Varian sprinted to the last three abyssals.

The abyssals looked at each other and a fierce glint flashed in their eyes.

Their bodies elementalized to lightning and they all rushed to Varian.

Then, they compressed all the lightning mana in their bodies. If they weren't in elementalized state, veins would've popped up on their foreheads and their muscles would've squirmed.

But since they were all in lightning form, Varian didn't notice the changes until he was close.

And then they exploded.

BOOM!

Varian was blown away like a broken kite.

His back seemed to have taken a liking, it once again crashed to the same wall.

"Cough. Cough. Cough." Varian stood up coughing out blood.

He backed out at the last moment and used multi-barriers, saving himself from critical injuries.

But he was still heavily injured and was bleeding profusely.

[Lightning Path: 2/6]

Varian felt a jolt of power course through his veins as the lightning mana suddenly rose.

"Haa!"

Dragging his body up, Varian ran to the first floor.

"Heeeuk!"

The gravity once again pressed him, causing his back to hunch and shoulders to bend, ending with him coughing out blood.

Despite knowing about the gravity here, Varian couldn't do much.

He put on the space barriers, he used his telekinetic powers to support himself, but with his injuries, they were far less effective.

But like a madman, Varian rushed to the stairs.

His injuries worsened dramatically, but finally, he started climbing the stairs.

Thankfully, there were no more mechanisms and soon, Varian reached the second floor.

There were only a few items in floating glass boxes and Varian quickly found what he wanted.

A black disc around the size of a palm. It was the blocker—the item that stopped information from going out of the solar system.

Like every other item, it too was in a glass box.

It wasn't easy to steal because the glass box was a special material able to withstand even level 9 attacks.

Varian ran to the blocker and took a deep breath.

He wasn't a level 9 and he had no level 9s.

But he had a plan.
