Chapter 389 The Words That Raised A Wave In The Firmaments (Part 3)
Once everyone let loose of their restrictions things tensed up, Ley, Rox and Merkel were all Sea of Knowledge cultivators, so they immediately unleashed their Attribute Sea, the characteristic of their realm.
Three different “seas”, a lime-green one, a black-gray one and lastly one which was blood red.
Aster softly snorted, he snapped his fingers and a golden dome covered Kana’s sleeping little body, then the golden armor cladded Aster.
But before they started and to Aster’s surprise, the monk Kai and his group slowly walked towards him.
“What’s the meaning of this you bald bastard!”, shouted Merkel as he pointed his axe at Kai.
“My Diamond Vajra Sutra, requires me to follow my heart and I can’t bring myself to like the idea of killing a little girl, just because I wasn’t apt enough to get a treasure that chose her over me”, said the monk Kai as he made a few gestures with his hands, then a crystal-like pagoda rose behind of him as he unleashed his Attribute Sea.
“Friend from another galaxy, my Diamond Vajra sect shall assist you against those orcrary savages, but we’ll leave first, I hope you don’t mind”.
Aster saw Kai making a budhist salute at him, and he nodded in response.
“Sounds good to me, eliminating their subordinates is enough”.
Kai nodded and he along with his companions directly flew towards the orcrary.
“You bastard!”, Merkel felt a vein popping on his neck, he didn’t dare to leave Kai go after his subordinates as it would be like leaving a wolf alone with a herd of sheep, a slaughter.
The subordinates of Merkel were on par with the monks, but Kai was a big variant there so he had block him.
“I’ll deal with that traitor of Victor”, said Iris as she unsheathed her sword and became a fire flash, followed by two of her maids, while the third one rested next to Kana.
“Leave the small fries to us~”.
“Mm”.
“I’ll join in as well”.
Natasha, Charlotte and their protectors each took one of Ley or Rox subordinates and drove them away from the spatial distortion, Camila rolled her spear on her hand and then flew towards another of the subordinates of Rox.
“I’ll add this to protect little Kana”, Ixas punched the ground and the sand parted way for a brown stone structure that covered the golden dome created by Aster, a double layer protection so to speak.
And why did he do that, the reason is very simple, because for the first time since they arrived to the secret realm, Genesis Manifestation cultivators were allowed to use their realm characteristic.
Just like how Sea of Knowledge get an increase in their spirit energy and attribute reserves, enough to form an “Attribute Sea” when unleashed, Genesis Manifestation cultivators had their own trick.
Ixas jumped towards the strongest subordinate which Rox brough, a tall middle age man with a scar on his chest, and then both flew into the sky before unleashing their cultivations at the same time.
What is the characteristic of a Genesis Manifestation cultivator you may ask, the answer was in front of everyone above in the sky, two three-kilometer spheres of energy, one brown and the other one black-gray collided, creating a huge shockwave that blew away a ton of sand, such was the result of the clash of two “Genesis Cores”, what happened after one’s Attribute Sea completely covered the original Star Core, thus reaching the Genesis Manifestation realm.
“Booom!”, a thunder like sound echoed through the sky, followed by the appearance of other different Genesis Cores which collided in the sky.
Even then, there were still a couple more of peak Genesis Manifestation cultivators, one from Rox and one from Ley’s teams.
“My turn~”, who has Eris’s necklace hanging from her neck, became a flash of pink light, before she appeared in front of the remaining Genesis Manifestation cultivators, she then swung her halberd towards them.
The two enemies paled feeling the pressure that was falling on them due to Mylene’s monstrous physical strength, so they didn’t dare to take the hit upfront and instead immediately released their Genesis Cores, just in time.
“Boooom!!!”, the sound of metals colliding filled the area as Mylene’s halberd clashed against the two energy spheres, but that wasn’t the end of it, while the decay attribute of Mylene was worn out due to the mix of the poisonous wind and despair darkness attributes of the Storm Roc and Black Vulture races, the impact was so strong that the two Genesis Cores were sent flying backwards a couple of hundreds of meters.ππ£ππ xt.πΈππ
At the same time Mylene’s halberd cracked, but she just kept that in his spatial ring and took out a new one.
“Ah, the advantages of having such a proactive spirit blacksmith in the group~”, said Mylene as she stole a gaze at Aster, before she herself released her Genesis Core, which visually might be attractive to the eye since it was of a pretty pink color, but the two Peak Genesis Manifestation cultivators fighting her, were more than horrified.
Just like, Rox, Ley, Merkel and Kai, Mylene was at the apex of her clan, being the most talented in her generation, the difference is that she is older and if not for being dragged into that space rift, at this point she should have at least reached a strength on equal standing with some of the weakest elders of her family.
In other words, although they were resisting with a lot of effort, ultimately, they were no match for her, even if they joined hands.
“Vivian, you…”, Aster was about to tell Vivian to stay by Kana’s side to both not be affected by the battle and to make her company, but when he turned to see her, his eyes widened a bit.
Vivian was standing on top of the Bulwark built by Ixas, her white dress waves due to the wind, as a purple petal-like pattern spread on her arms and legs.
Her sight was long gone, but before she lost strength in her legs, countless of purple petals left her skin and floated around the stone fortress.
“Spirit Venom, Purple Demon Bloom”, she said in her gentle and calm voice as she opened her eyes, to reveal she could see again.
Aster saw some missed attacks which were about to reach the stone fortress, but then Vivian beckoned and a couple of the petals got in their way, then the attacks either lost their power becoming harmless, or being completely canceled.
Vivian then sweetly smiled at Aster as she said.
“Kana is a good girl, even before when I had zero control over my poison, she was so eager to play with me, there is no way I will let these bastards touch a single hair of her head”.
Though Vivian tried to sound angry, her voice was too mellow and low for that, which made Aster feel a bit amused, but he still nodded at her, surprised by how she was no able to use her poison diving into the “darkness” and then pulling out without being dragged down by it.
What he didn’t know was that, what helped her get back from it, was the memory of him smiling at her, when she regained her sight for the first time in more than fifteen years.
“Last time we were interrupted, but don’t worry I’ll properly kill you two this time around”, said Aster, he let out both his spirit energy and Rigel’s flames whose amounts combined were enough to equal both Rox and Ley’s Attribute Seas.
He chose to let annihilation as he had an interesting idea which required his whole reserves of it, in storage for later.
Aster became a golden and blue flash while Ley and Rox took out their own weapons, a lime-green spear and a black saber.
“Clank!!!”, Aster’s sword clashed against both Ley’s spear and Rox saber, and a strong shockwave followed by gusts of wind, were released due to the impact, still for the first time in a battle, Aster couldn’t force an enemy backwards, both Ley and Rox were also body cultivators and with their strengths combined as well as gritting their teeth, they were able to block Aster’s slash.
But then their smiles froze on their faces, while Aster grinned, the blade of Aster’s sword dived a few millimeters into the staff of Ley’s spear and Rox’s saber, leaving a chip in their weapons.
“Unfortunately for you, my sword intent is too fierce to be blocked by your half-assed intents”, said Aster.
Ley and Rox had achieved both “Ghost Saber” and “Ghost Spear”, which increased the range of their weapons, and “Sharpening” which increased the lethality of their weapons, but Aster had already taken another step and was half into the third level of intent, “Concept”, so of course their weapons were damaged after clashing with all their might.
“Fuck!”, both Ley and Rox tried to suppress Aster with their Attribute Seas, but were responded in kind, Aster’s spirit energy was enough to contain Ley’s, while Rigel’s flames actually had a faint advantage over Rox’s.
With each clash the sky trembled, the limit of the secret realm was set to be the Genesis Manifestation, and now there were many of them using their maximum power to fight with each other, and in the current unstable state, the results were catastrophic.
Explosions here and there, mountains disappearing, sand being blown away, tremors and the ground splitting apart, letting lava came from underground.
It was as if the world was about to end, and it a certain meaning that was the case, as the secret realm will crumble apart in a few minutes, according to the Emerald Whirlwind at least.
Speaking about the Emerald Whirlwind, while Aster and the others were fighting with their respective enemies, inside the stone fortress and more accurately inside the golden dome which only covered Kana.
The little girl had her eyes closed with a peaceful sleeping expression in her pretty face, completely oblivious to what was happening outside, but she was dreaming.
“Mm, where am I?”, Kana looked at her surroundings, she was floating in the sky where there was nothing else, until a moment ago when a smaller version of the green castle in which the trials took part, appeared.
She floated towards the castle, and as soon as she approached it, the gates opened for her, green gusts of wind came from inside of the castle and they swirled around Kana, before they entered her.
The world then shattered and disappeared and Kana opened her eyes in the real world, unlike before, her pupils had a pretty soft green tone similar to Sarina’s, instead of their previous sky-blue color.
“Big brother~”, Kana saw the jacket of Aster acting as her bed and the golden dome protecting her, and her heart melted, she jumped to get up and then raised her head to look above, as if her eyes could see through both the golden dome and the stone fortress.
“Mm?”, Aster who was clashing with Ley and Rox, suddenly felt a familiar sensation, he then looked at the sky and he had the urge to laugh out loud.
“What the hell is that!”, shouted Ley as both he and Rox took some distance from Aster.
