Chapter 673: 522 Holy Spear - Weigh Anchor!
"————"
It was a battle with few spectators, yet it was one that could truly shake the souls of all who witnessed it.
Hidden within the pitch-black storm, a massive beast swung its blade-like tail repeatedly toward the surging flames that formed a sun in mid-air, only for a small black dagger within the flames to deflect it time and again, rendering its efforts futile.
Every collision between the tiny blade and the enormous tail sparked roars that shook the entire black storm.
The flames and the storm collided time and time again, continuously unleashing explosive impacts.
High above, the sun, bright enough to illuminate the entire world and dispel the black storm, ceaselessly radiated heat.
The pitch-black storm, capable of ravaging the sky and the earth and destroying everything, also rampaged nonstop, devouring everything around it.
Such was the battle, a fierce struggle as if scenes from a myth were being reenacted.
"Boom!"
Reiger, enveloped in the Sun’s Fire, suddenly dove downward, striking at the beast lurking in the darkness with a sun-wheel like sweep.
"Heaven of Bi Luo!"
The sun-wheel like fire struck the face of the pitch-black beast, the exploding flames seemingly scorching the beast, eliciting a painful howl of anger.
Reiger, relentless in his advantage, immediately transformed into a streak of firelight, closed the distance, and swung a flame-entwined slash at the fox-beast, much larger than himself.
"Circle Dance!"
A perfect circle of a slash swung past.
"Heaven of Bi Luo!"
A slash descended from the sky.
"Sun’s Red Mirror!"
A slash that followed an "∞" trajectory momentarily appeared.
"Phantom Sun Rainbow!"
The mirage-like heat haze gently swayed.
"Fire Train!"
The arc-shaped vertical slash spiraled past.
"Bone-Burning Sun!"
The fiery vortex exploded with a roar.
"Sunburst Thrust!"
The ring-shaped flame spear surged forth at high speed.
"Flying Wheel Yang Flame!"
The tip of the sword, flickering with flames, burst forth with a slash.
"Oblique Sun Turn!"
The sun-like intense flames hung inverted.
"Glorious Radiance!"
The spiral-shaped slash struck like a blossoming firework.
"Dragon of the Sun Halo—Head Dance!"
The flying fire dragon clashed against the black storm.
"Flame Dance!"
A double-strike real circle slash connected above, forming a new round of attack.
In the blink of an eye, Reiger had executed all twelve sword forms of the Sun Breathing technique, one slash following another, one strike after another, continuously bombarding the pitch-black beast. The slashes caused the flames to burst forth, the storm to disperse, and the beast to howl in pain, enraged.
"Boom!!!"
The furious beast swung its claws, brought down its tail, and even opened its fang-filled gaping maw, lunging at Reiger with a bite as if it were a wounded and nearly frenzied beast, causing this dark world to tremble incessantly.
It has to be said, the creature’s attacks were indeed terrifying. Even though it was not yet fully grown and was still a youngling, each of its strikes was earth-shattering.
If one were to be hit by such powerful attacks, then, with just a frail mortal body, one could easily imagine the outcome.
At least, Reiger felt that as Skaya’s attack brushed past him, even from a distance, the accompanying gale alone was painful enough to scrape at his whole body, making him repeatedly think he was being torn apart.
To make Reiger, whose durability had reached the highest SSS-level at Lv.7, feel pain from just the residual effects of the attack, and to give him such illusions, showed just how powerful the creature’s attacks were.
Previously, Reiger would have tried every possible way to cover himself with layers of defensive magic to avoid taking a hit from the creature and dying as a result.
But now, he no longer needed to.
"Bang!"
Accompanied by an explosion of flames, Reiger’s figure repeatedly transformed into a fleeting streak of firelight, like a shooting star, darting through the earth-shaking attacks of the creature.
Utilizing the speed burst techniques of Thunder Breathing, Reiger’s speed now was incomparable to when he used Sun Breathing, allowing him to narrowly escape Skaya’s attacks time after time.
"Clang!"
Wearing the Dragon’s Secret Treasure, which had been activated to enhance his strength.
Reiger’s eyes also flashed red, and a frenzy surged around him, signaling to others that he had activated the [Fierce Demon Spear] spell, pushing his strength to the extreme.
Clearly, facing the youngling of the Beast, even Reiger dared not be careless, going all out from the get-go.
"[Time Stop]!"
Reiger also tried to use time magic, attempting to stop time to prevent the creature’s attacks.
Unfortunately, as expected, Reiger failed.
The powerful time magic had no effect whatsoever on the creature.
"Is everyone in this world resistant to my magic?"
Reiger had no choice but to dodge the storm-like terrifying attacks while sighing inwardly.
Not only do fairies generally possess high magic resistance, but beings like servants also typically resist magic and magecraft. This condition truly caused Reiger, who possessed numerous spells to weaken and hinder enemies, to frown deeply.
Not to mention the servants, many of whom possess the skill [Resistance to Magic Power].
Indeed, servants also have skills.
