Chapter 766: Strength

The Fifth Form was too powerful. It turned the entire land upside down and killed every living being within its range. Everything within a straight line of hundreds of kilometers was swallowed by the overwhelming black lightning. That one attack caused a giant rift in the ground that reached dozens of kilometers deep.

Souta and the guardian were literally overturning the land. They were changing the geographical formation of this desert and no one could prevent it.

Watching everything from afar feels like the end of the world was coming. It was easy to say that ninety percent of lifeforms in the desert were already dead at this moment.

“Come here!”

Souta swung the giant mace in his hand. The guardian also swung the giant sword. They exchanged blows thousands of times in the blink of an eye, overturning the whole field. They exploded with much power as the vast land suffered a never-ending quake.

The [Blood Armor: Great Black Orc] boosted his physical power to an unbelievable level. It was his greatest strength when using this ability.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Hundreds of runes shone around the guardian’s body. His power reached a higher level once again. He leaped forward while dragging a kilometer-long carpet of flames around his sword.

Instantly, he arrived in front of Souta. His body was much larger compared to Souta’s body. He carried dominating aura as he swung the sword along with the sea of flames.

Souta’s eyes shrunk. The flames were just two thousand degree celsius but the problem was that it contained a vast amount of energy. The amount wasn’t something that he could ignore.

Swoosh!!

The sea of flames rushed forward like a tsunami.

[Fourth Form: Bridal Lotus Benevolent Rose]!!

The sea of flames collided with the barrier causing an intense reaction of energy that shot upward in the sky. It blew the dark clouds away but the dark clouds gathered in just a second.

Souta dashed through the thick smoke and appeared in front of the guardian. The guardian remained the same as he swung his sword and Souta reacted quickly by stepping back instantly.

The sword hit nothing but the force behind it almost blow Souta away. Souta only steadied himself by concentrating the gravity field around his body.

“Let me finish this!!”

Souta narrowed his eyes. He stepped forward before sliding between the guardian’s legs. He then jump in the air and concentrated his energy on the mace. His muscle bugled as the [Nebula Heart] and monster orb pumped energy throughout his body.

The guardian was about to launch another powerful attack when Souta swung the mace in his hand. Black lightning erupted as blood flowed through the weapon enhancing its capabilities.

Using blood as a medium, he threw several powerful attacks in the blink of an eye.

[Fifth Form: Rage of the Thunder God]!

[First Form: Mahayana Tribulation]!

[Crimson Moon]!

All this time he focused all the gravity to restrict the guardian’s movement. It was an all-out spell attack to the point that the magic circle of the [Gravitational Ball] reached the limit. It couldn’t take any more energy or else it would explode.

The mace arrived in front of the guardian’s eyes. The distance between the two before the contact was just a single inch. Suddenly, before the collision, Souta activated [Possession] and [Yin Yang Unification] to greatly boost all of his skills and abilities.

BOOM!!!

It was a large deafening sound. Blinding light erupted shining through the sky. The vast energy evaporated everything without leaving a single trace.

What was left was just a place filled with thick black smoke. The fluctuations of energy were high, turning the entire area into a hazardous place. Energy sparks would crackle in the air every second.

Souta was standing in the middle of nowhere. His body had returned to normal. He was a little bit exhausted but he still had a huge grin on his face.

In front of him was a gigantic rift across the land. The land was split open. It was so huge that it split the entire desert region in half. The largest desert on this planet was sliced into two and the rift was observable in outer space. It looks like a fault line had appeared in this desert.

Even Souta was a little bit shocked seeing the destruction his attack caused. Although it was within his expectation since he knew that this wasn’t Imperium, it was still a bit impressive seeing it with his own eyes.

“If I use my full power then the destruction will increase multiple times,”

Souta muttered as he looked around. Despite his powerful attack, the space in this sub-world was still intact. It didn’t even show signs of cracks or distortion.

“Nonetheless, this place is a high world. It’s not as fragile as those mid and low worlds.”

More importantly… Souta found that he was on the edge of the desert. It seems that the battle took him to this place without realizing it. He was too absorbed in the fight.

“I’ll go back…”

Souta returned and found that Alexander hasn’t finished his job. He was still standing in front of the pillar. No, he was floating. The whole ground had collapsed leaving the pillar alone.

Souta shrugged his shoulder. Since there was nothing to do, he would recover a little bit of his energy first. From his point of view, the battle before destroyed all lifeforms in this region. There’s no one alive except for him and Alexander.

After waiting for a whole minute, Alexander pulled out of both his hands. Bright light with different colors spreads out in the sky like a net. It covered hundreds of kilometers as a ripple of soft and calm energy spread out.

Alexander fell but Souta controlled him using gravity to prevent him from falling.

“Is everything alright? You look tired, you know?” Souta asked after looking at Alexander’s pale face.

“Yeah, I got the key. I put it inside my body. The only problem is that I couldn’t use my strength now that this key is with me.” Alexander explained.

Souta’s eyes adjusted and saw that a strange object was inside Alexander’s mana pool. This strange object was powerful and it was refining Alexander’s energy.

‘This… A universal grade?’

His eyes shrunk as he realized the level of the artifact. He took a deep breath to control himself. It would be bad if his emotional instability spiked up once again. If that happened he wouldn’t be able to control himself.

He closed his eyes. He felt someone was whispering in his ears. It was saying that he should kill Alexander. Kill. Kill. Kill.

It took him a minute before he opened his eyes once again. Souta turned around and asked, “So what should we do now? You got the key, right?”

“Yeah, we just need to find the place where we will need to use the key,” Alexander said. After that, this place would become his once again. He wouldn’t be able to manipulate this realm like in the past but it should be enough for his current level.

“I see… So do you need a rest?” Souta asked while both of them were slowly descending on the ground.

“No, this is fine. I just couldn’t use my energy.” Alexander said. Even without his energy, his body was still at Two Shackles Realm. He was extremely powerful. Also, he didn’t have injuries so he was still at his peak.

“So where we will find the place to use that key?” Souta asked.

“Back to where it started.”

“You mean?”

“Yeah, the castle back there,” Alexander answered.



In the forest.

Yaniesvyl, the Princess of Heiro Kingdom, gathered a lot of experts. Even the experts from San Sun Clan and Great Chan Hall were present. Their numbers reached several hundred.

They gathered here for one goal and that goal was to eliminate Heimbra of the Poison Demon Palace.

Yaniesvyl let out a sigh. The fluctuations of energy level before were too high. It was terrifying. Luckily, it seems that the owner of that energy wasn’t in the forest. As expected this place wasn’t ordinary. There were countless dangers and opportunities.

She looked around and said, “We should worry about ourselves first. Lady Heimbra found the Extreme Poison Field and she is currently refining it. Once she succeeded, we will all die. That’s the only outcome.”

“What is the Extreme Poison Field?” One of the experts asked.

Dream, from the Great Chan Hall, stepped forward. He opened his mouth and slowly explained so that these people could understand the graveness of this situation.

“The Extreme Poison Field is a natural phenomenon. It appears in an environment with countless lethal poisons. It contained the most dangerous poison that could kill experts easily. Once Lady Heimbra completely refined it, the field will release poison into the atmosphere. The poison is powerful enough to kill even experts at Shackled Realm. It will then be absorbed into her body to raise her power.”

The experts were shocked when they heard the explanation. If the poison could kill Shackled Realm, then it would be extremely fatal to most of them who haven’t even broken one shackle.
