Realm of Myths and Legends

Chapter 1104: Unable To Exist Below

Peaceful Chaos did not understand what was happening. After using the Hygrin's Great Seal, the fight should have been shifted in his favor. However, could something like this even be called a fight? Every attack he landed on Izroth was met by the same reaction by the system.

<<<Immune>>>

<<Immune>>

<<<Immune>>

Despite his newfound power, Peaceful Chaos could not even scratch the opponent before him. Even a boss monster would have already been shaken by such an onslaught of attacks. But, for some reason, the player in front of his eyes defied all logic.

"Is there an invulnerability skill that lasts this long? Is it a magic item? I refuse to believe it can absorb damage without end!" Peaceful Chaos thoughts spun as he did not let up on his rain of attacks.

"Huh?" Peaceful Chaos felt the world around him slow down as his eyes landed on Izroth's right hand.

From his perspective, that hand was moving so painfully slow that he had enough time to launch tens of attacks while it was still in motion. However, the strange thing was the foreboding sense that crept into Peaceful Chaos' mind from his experience as a core player. His body warned him to instinctively retreat. But, he pushed this feeling down as he believed that it was only a matter of time until he broke through whatever defensive measures Izroth put into place.

Besides, how could Izroth ever hit him with such laughable agility? Plus, Peaceful Chaos figured that worst case scenario, he could easily take another attack from Izroth.

that thought crossed Peaceful Chaos' mind, Izroth extended his fingers while keeping his middle finger pressed down toward his palm with his thumb.

Seeing Izroth's actions, Peaceful Chaos became increasingly agitated, "What is that supposed to do-"

Izroth casually flicked his finger forward. The moment he performed this simple action, the surroundings became deafeningly silent. At the same time, Peaceful Chaos had been immediately shattered into countless particles that dispersed in every direction.

The ground trembled like never before and split open as if a great force overwhelmed its very existence. The momentum from this simple flick carried onward as an overbearing pressure descended upon the entirety of the Kifa Karsts and blew away everything in its path.

Then, a few seconds later, a terrifying sound echoed from that originated from where Izroth stood.

...BOOOOOOM!

...

In the blink of an eye, Peaceful Chaos along with the remaining members of Blue Oasis in the vicinity had been wiped out.

Azalea narrowed her eyes as she looked down at her feet. There was a scar left on the earth that spanned more than thirty meters wide. And, as she turned to look behind her, she saw a trail of destruction that traveled further than her eyes could see.

Azalea was someone who consumed a Five Cycles Pill and possessed the Sight and Hearing Enhancement effect from the Queen of Phantoms. In terms of pure sight, the number of players capable of rivaling her could probably be counted on one's hands alone. The fact that even she could not tell where the trail of destruction ended spoke volumes of just how devastating that attack was.

"Is this the true power of my teacher?" Azalea said to herself as she turned her gaze toward Izroth in the distance.

Crrrrckle...!

Suddenly, the skies above the Kifa Karsts darkened as a swirling vortex of dark clouds formed overhead.

BOOOOOOOOOOM!

An overwhelming presence could be felt in the skies as the sound of thunder echoed.

"What is this terrifying feeling?" Azalea muttered with furrowed brows.

The sound of the thunder alone was so oppressive that it was challenging for one to even breathe properly, let alone move around freely.

Izroth set his sights on the skies above. He had witnessed this phenomenon before back during the second team's selection at the Sky Palace.

'It's not as overbearing as it was back then, but this pressure... Without a doubt, it's the heavenly lightning. How troublesome.'

The heavenly lightning appeared when one was going too far against the laws of the world, such as when Sage merged two of the Main Upper Eight Domains.

In this case, due to the Hygrin's Great Seal used by Peaceful Chaos and Izroth's Unbounded One skill, he had obtained a power that was far beyond what someone below the firmament should possess. As a result, the world itself in the form of the heavenly lightning moved to eliminate him.

'It's a shame, but with my current strength, it's not possible to face a force of nature like the heavenly lightning head-on. Still, it's a good thing I held back my strength. I thought something like this might

occur.'

Izroth restrained the power of his strike to around 10% because he knew the consequences of those who used too great of power without the means to control it. Nevertheless, it appeared that it was not enough to stop the heavenly lightning from showing up.

Izroth did not know much about the heavenly lightning in RML; however, if it was anything like that existed in the Seven Realms, then relying on raw physical strength or skills alone was useless. One might be able to buy some time that way, but it would only be a matter of time until the heavenly lightning struck down with enough power to wipe them out.

'It is not yet time for me to face that place. First, I must build enough strength so that I'm not merely a powerless target when I set foot there. Although it's not at the same level as the heavenly lightning back at the Sky Palace, it seems I've still managed to gather quite the audience.'

Thanks to his Energy Vision Sense, Izroth could sense the gazes of numerous existences. Without a doubt, these existences were all in the legendary realm or belonged to some

powerful organization.

Crrrrckle! B0000000M!

The heavenly lightning in the skies started to grow restless. One could tell that it was getting ready to strike down at any moment!

Then, without warning, something unusual happened. The heavenly lightning began to calm down as the dark clouds started to recede. The overwhelming pressure also subsided.

'Fortunately, there's quite a simple way out this time.'

In the palm of Izroth's hand was an exquisite ring.

[System Alert: You have unequipped the <<Ring of the Ancient Colossus>>!

The moment Izroth removed the Ring of the Ancient Colossus, his Might stat disappeared and the unfathomable power that surged through him vanished without a trace. With that power, Izroth was confident that no one below the firmament would be his match. However, in the end, it was a power that did not belong to him and would only lead to his demise. He was not so short-sighted as to be blinded by momentary power.

Not long after Izroth unequipped the Ring of the Ancient Colossus, the heavenly lightning crackled one last time before fading away. The dark clouds that lingered over the Kifa Karsts also dispersed as things returned to normal.

As for the gazes, they left one by one after the heavenly lightning went away; however, a few of them seemed to linger around. But, Izroth chose to ignore these gazes since getting rid of them would be more trouble than it was worth.

Izroth did not know precisely how Hygrin's Great Seal worked, but if it could bypass his Unbounded One skill, he figured that it was not a genuine sealing magic item. Of course, he tried to activate his Flickering Steps and any other movement skills to add in his massive speed decrease when Peaceful Chaos first activated the item. But, seeing as how it was all useless, Izroth deduced that the stats could not be changed for the item's effect duration. If so, there was a simple solution to avoiding the wrath of the heavenly lightning, and that was to remove the source of the Might stat, the Ring of the Ancient Colossus. Fortunately, the Might stat was tied to the Ring of the Ancient Colossus. If it had instead been something like his attack stat, Izroth would not have been able to use such a method to fend off the heavenly lightning.

"Teacher! Is everything alright?" Azalea inquired as she rushed over.

She tried to move before when the heavenly lightning was present, but some invisible force

was keeping her locked in place. Such a terrifying power and her teacher was at the center of it

all.

"I'm fine," Izroth said with a carefree smile.

He then continued, "More importantly, you still have a mission to finish." "Leave it to me, teacher. I will deal with the remaining members of Blue Oasis in Kifa Karsts

as you've instructed." Azalea said with a look of determination in her eyes.
