Death... and me

Chapter 4103: Still Have Three Minutes!

Hick and Dofrei were forced to work extra hard from that point onwards. The twins’ group only had another thirteen minutes of their System’s intervention. So, they truly didn’t hold back, as it was a free-for-all between the four. To make sure they wouldn’t impact Dofrei’s kids, Dofrei and Hick had to also protect them.

One minute, two minutes, three, four...

Each minute seemed to take longer than the last, and the fight got crazier as it continued. As one could expect, Roan usually had the advantage, albeit only slightly. Still, anytime he tried to take the upper hand, two of the others would help join hands for a short moment, and everything returned to the same craziness.

Several deep injuries appeared, Celesital Laws of Dark, Light, Absorption, and Wood clashed right, left, and center. Healing always followed, but the dark element impaired it, and that’s if the energy necessary for it wasn’t taken away, all of it while their Domains targeted each other.

Finally, by the tenth minute, Roan felt it!

*Click!*

The last piece of his Dark Laws became clear in his mind, and his power skyrocketed.

That wasn’t all!

Roan’s Elemental Intent Scythe changed at that very moment. Back then, when the twins learned the Sixth Stage of Weapon Intent, they were able to make an Elemental Intent Weapon filled with 99% of their Dark or Bright Red Lighting. The Red Lightning, obviously, was just an addition that could increase the attack power. The real important thing was the Light and Dark Elements.

Yet, since then, the twins had been stuck at the Sixth Stage. Regardless of what they tried, they simply couldn’t bring their Element Intent Weapons to reach that 100%. That single 1% was more complex than anything else they had experienced so far.

Now, however, Roan got it! The last percentage was achieved, and his Element Intent Scythes looked to crystallize. But, at the same time, they still seemed to be made of the same ethereal power. One of the main advantages of the Element Intent Weapons was that there was no risk of causing a collision with each other. The Death Cross that Roan used made full use of this trait, for example.

Now, that power was still there. Roan didn’t have to worry about his Scythes colliding. But there was something else, something deeper in that Crystalized Scythe in his hand.

Rean approached after dodging one of Kentucky’s attacks, his two Element Intent Swords slashing down at Roan.

However, Roan didn’t move from his place. He only lifted one of his hands, using just a single Dark Red Lightning Intent Scythe, slashing it leisurely against Rean’s full power attack.

*Swish!*

Rean’s two Bright Red Lightning Swords were split into two... No, they didn’t get split. The section where Roan’s Crystalized Intent Scythe hit simply disappeared!!!

The slashing continued forward, passing through Rean’s body and almost splinting him into two instead!

Rean quickly fell to the ground, and Celis and Kentucky stopped. Just what kind of power was that?! Even Kentucky had no confidence he could defend against that thing!

Roan held back, though. His Dark Element didn’t impair Rean’s healing abilities.

Rean noticed that, and his Instant Recovery activated right away. The two sides of his body mended together in a matter of seconds, even though he was a real Peak Celestial now. Rean already could use the Celestial Laws of Light to increase his healing ability to that extent!

*Click!*

"I see... So that’s what lies beyond the sixth stage." Rean closed his eyes for a moment, and his Elemental Intent Swords also began to crystallize in the same way Roan’s Scythe did. The difference was that instead of having a Dark Red coloration, it was Bright Red. Rean got to understand both his Intent Weapon and his Celestial Laws of Light at that moment.

Roan’s Scythe still sparked arcs of Dark Red Lightning, and Rean’s did the same with Bright Red.

Celis and Kentucky didn’t need the twins to tell them what happened. "The seventh stage!"

They had never seen it before. They had never heard about it either. However, they were certain. That was definitely the seventh stage of Weapon Intent!

Roan nodded slightly at Rean, and there was a mutual understanding.

*Click, click!*

Roan immediately finalized his comprehension of the Celestial Light Laws, while Rean got there with his Dark Laws. Laws were different for everyone, but even now, there seemed to be a connection between the two in that regard. Somehow, that last bit of comprehension of laws came from each other.

Then, they looked at Celis and Kentucky. They can’t have breakthroughs if those two aren’t on par with them.

"There are still three minutes," Roan spoke, his body arching forward in Kentucky’s direction.

Rean agreed with him, his arms opening while holding both Crystalized Intent Swords. "Let’s make sure they get there."

Celis and Kentucky felt fear, real fear! Perhaps they would indeed die today!

Still, Celis didn’t wait for Rean to come. "I refuse to be the reason our cultivation is lagging behind! Bring it on!" He also shot forward. Whatever happened, he wouldn’t regret it!

As for Kentucky, he also shot... backwards. "Don’t bring it on! Don’t bring it on at all! I’m fine waiting!"

Yet, Roan’s Domain’s power increased even more, and it even impaired Kentucky’s speed flying! As long as Kentucky doesn’t finish comprehending the Celestial Laws of Dark and Light, his skills won’t be as good as Roan’s. Thus, his usual advantage of speed in the air disappeared.

*Zush*

’Death Style, Death Cross!’

Kentucky understood. He wouldn’t be able to flee. "Fuck! If only I had recovered my bloodline power!"

Roan snorted!

*Swish, swish!*

Kentucky’s scales and feather blades split open, dark blood gushing out. However, it wasn’t a fatal injury, but that wasn’t because Roan didn’t try to kill him. It was Kentucky’s own reaction. Roan was satisfied with his response. "And yet, you didn’t die just now. It seems like I didn’t train you for nothing after all these years. However, you’d better comprehend these laws of Dark and Light pretty fast. I don’t think you can survive many of my attacks."

Another minute, Kentucky finished comprehending the Celestial Laws of Light. He prioritized that one so he could at least heal himself fast enough before Roan ended his life!

A minute and a half, Celis comprehended the Celestial Laws of Absorption!

Twelve minutes and a half, Celis did the same with the Celestial Laws of Wood, and it was right on the nick of time. Rean’s was about to truly wipe out his existence with that weird intent weapon. Even his Peak Celestial Body seemed incapable of stopping Celis from being killed.

Finally, at the last second of the thirty-five minutes, when Roan was about to skin Kentucky alive, the Dark Flames on Kentucky’s body flared with more power than ever! That allowed him to just barely block Roan’s Crystal Intent Scythe for a moment so he could dodge. Kentucky also comprehended the Celestial Laws of Dark!
