Chapter 604: Execution: [Sixth Form]
“Who the hell are you?” The old man asked. No matter what he did, he was still a person that broke a single shackle yet he couldn’t even take down this third evolution monster in front of him.
“Who am I? I am Souta Ieshi, a warrior from Athen’s Champion. Currently, there’s a huge disparity between us.” Souta raised one of his fingers. “First, the skills I have is greater than yours.”
Although Creep Lord was a powerful person at Ten Shackles Realm, she was still a mortal. She didn’t even have an [Archetype] to help herself ascend to godhood.
Souta’s skills and traits were still better than it.
“Second, the equipment that you have is weaker than what I have.”
Souta’s equipment was full of high-grade artifacts. He even has two universal-grade and two dark-grade yet the old man didn’t have any of these levels.
“Third, the battle experience. You lack experience in fighting someone at my level.”
The old man just got promoted. Souta was the first time he fought with his current strength so he lacks experience in fighting a high-level battle.
“Lastly, you’re originally just an ordinary B-rank yet you skip several ranks. So you are weaker than your current power level.”
Forcefully breaking a shackle without undergoing the liquefying and solidifying state made him so weak for a Shackled Realm expert. A month or two his body would start to collapse because of this.
The old man narrowed his eyes after hearing Souta’s words. He realized that Souta was right and if he met a legitimate shackled realm, he wouldn’t be able to win.
“You are not going to win against me.”
Souta said before he disappeared in front of the old man.
The old man widened his eyes. He quickly turned around just to see a first close to his face.
[Night Curse Barrier]!
A layer of barrier formed in front of him just in time before the fist landed on his face.
“Tsk!”
Souta clicked his tongue in annoyance. The old man still had a fast reaction and could keep up with his movements. He raised his other hand and slashed the vajra sword on the barrier.
[Archetype: Vajra Extremity]!
[First Form: Mahayana Tribulation]!
Black lightning flooded the entire space. The barrier made of started to form a crack.
‘Saya, help me control my energy.’ Souta said.
‘Got it.’ Saya replied.
‘Good.’
Flesh covered Souta’s hand and it locked his hand on the vajra sword. Then, a huge amount of best feram gathered on the blade of the sword. The energy in his monster orb and [Nebula Heart] rapidly decreased.
[Archetype: Vajra Extremity]!
[First Form: Mahayana Tribulation]!
[Fifth Form: Rage of the Thunder God]!
[Crimson Moon]!
[Bestrou]!
Four skills were fused into one slash. The dark red light illuminated the entire area as black lightning was shooting out in every direction.
“What the hell?!”
The old man opened his eyes widely. The oppressing aura coming from the dark red slash was making him tremble. He wanted to move but a heavy gravitational field was pressing him in his position.
It was already too late. Even if he breaks out of the gravitational field, the dark red slash would undoubtedly hit him.
“There’s no choice!”
He placed his hands in front of him and a huge amount of cursed energy swirled. The ground trembled and sweat formed on his forehead. After all, this was his first time using this amount of cursed energy in a single attack.
[Ultimate Curse: Desolate Earth]!
His most powerful attack collided with Souta’s combined attacks. The collision of the attack shook the entire tomb as if it was going to collapse.
Some of the runes had disappeared as it couldn’t handle the power of the two attacks.
BOOMM!!!
Even though the explosion was powerful, the tomb was still intact. It wouldn’t fall easily from the attack of a third evolution monster and a fake shackled realm. After all, the one that strengthened this tomb using runes was the Creep Lord herself, a Ten Shackles Realm expert.
This tomb would collapse if Souta was a fifth evolution stage monster and the old man was a Hero-rank. Unfortunately, their current power level wouldn’t even scratch the Creep Lord.
“Ugh!”
The old man spat a mouthful of blood. Souta’s attack didn’t damage him that much but somehow his body was feeling numb.
‘Did I use too much power? I’m afraid that I should finish this fight as soon as possible so that I could start my recuperation.’ He said inwardly.
Hmm…
Souta suffered wounds in the explosion too but his condition was better than the old man. After all, the old man had weak regeneration abilities while he had high regenerative powers. The two couldn’t be compared at all.
‘He’s finally feeling the backlash. If I could hold on and keep forcing him to use more energy then he will collapse on his own.’ He said inwardly.
“I’m not done yet.” The old man stood up as he wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth.
Souta didn’t say any more words as he charged toward the old man.
Boom! Boom!
The two fought inside the tomb with madness in their eyes. The tomb kept shaking every time they collided.
Bang! Bang!
They were giving everything that they could. They were fighting with the intention to defeat the opponent before them.
They exchanged blows thousands of times.
Boom!
Souta and the old man took a distance from each other. Both of them took a breath to prepare for another round of battle.
‘This monster is extremely dangerous. It’s my first time fighting a monster like this.’ The old man thought while observing Souta. ‘My body couldn’t last longer than this. I should gamble my last minute for a burst of power.’
With that thought in his mind, the old man’s energy level rose once again. The cursed energy around him became darker and green veins started to pop on his skin.
[Calamity Curse: Hundreds Killing Mode]!!
This was one of the most powerful secret skills of Creep Lord. He shouldn’t have used it with his current power level but he had no choice. If he didn’t use it then he wouldn’t have a chance to defeat the monster before him.
He will gamble everything.
Souta’s brows furrowed deeper. He knew that this will be the last round of their battle as the old man was using everything.
‘He is staking everything.’
He could tell it with [Galaxy Eyes]. He could see that the old man’s body was being consumed by his own curse. Despite that, the old man still decided to use a powerful secret skill.
‘This should be the last round.’
He was exhausted and tired too just like the old man. Although he could regenerate his wounds, his stamina and energy were depleting at a high rate.
This battle consumed a lot of his aces. The same could be said to the old man too.
If that’s the case, then he should gamble too.
The corner of his mouth curved upward. Having activated all the buff skills that he could use, Souta’s power reached the limit.
With the [Yin Yang Unification], the [Gravitational Ball], [Shadow Steps], [Dark Cloud Hunting], [Shadow Cloak], and [Night Overlord’s Aura] had received a 500% boost.
Even his [Dual Element Drive] was affected by the effect of this equipment skill.
While the old man was staring at Souta, the tomb suddenly shook, and a ring of energy exploded at where Souta was standing. The next moment, Souta’s enormous body disappeared. Leaving a track of energy sparks, he came right before the old man.
Wrapped in crimson, black, and white energy, the tip of the vajra sword suddenly appeared right before the old man’s eyes.
[Fifth Form: Rage of the Thunder God]!
[First Form: Mahayana Tribulation]!
[Crimson Moon]!
[Cross Moon]!
[Bestrou]!
‘What?!’
In the blink of an eye, the old man took a deep breath, gathered the cursed energy around him, and released it on his fist like a tidal wave.
[Destruction Curse Ray]!!
Boom!
The next moment, a ring-shaped shockwave exploded from the point of impact.
Both of their bodies were shot in the opposite direction, turning into a stream of lights, and crashing on the walls of the tomb.
Ugh!
The old man spat a mouthful of blood again. He shook his body and looked at Souta.
“What the hell is that?!”
Even though Souta was blown away too, he escaped unscathed from the impact of the explosion.
Black lightning with the shape of a rose was in front of him and before was black lightning in the shape of a spider web. Above Souta was a cloud of roaring black lightning.
The enormous amount of energy around him was pressuring the old man as if he was looking at a higher being.
The [First Form: Mahayana Tribulation], [Second Form: Thousand Oak Absorption], [Fourth Form: Bridal Lotus Benevolent Rose], and [Fifth Form: Rage of the Thunder God] were used at the same time.
In the past few weeks, Souta raised his mastery to 30% letting him use several forms at the same time. Not just that, the forms that he could use had increased.
Souta slowly raised the vajra sword which was covered in a dense amount of black lightning.
[Sixth Form: Piercing Thunder Strike]!
