Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1246 - Quickly Fading

There was nothing wrong with that, though. Rean and Trifas were both in the Saint Realm, even if one was in the Initial Stage and the other was at the Peak Stage. In the end, the level of weapons they could use was the same, Golden Initial-level, Middle-level if they had one. More than that, and their cultivation wouldn't be enough to use it correctly. However, Rean's Black Star was as strong as a piece of Golden High-level equipment.

Of course, that wasn't all. Rean's Black Star was made with World Essence from the system, just like Roan's scythe. While the Special Edition Weapons he sold were barely at the High-level in power, the White Scythe and the Black Star were at the very peak of what a High-level weapon could do. All of that while still being Golden Initial-level equipment. Let alone the fact that they could gather elements on their own.

Rean didn't give Trifas time to feel sad for his slightly damaged hammer as he continued his assault. He took the moment Trifas was surprised by the power of his attack to the fullest.

'Life Fire, Flame Emperor Sword!'

Light and Fire Element gathered around Rean's Black Star as he came crashing down at Trifas. The fusion of both elements created an even more powerful attack!

Trifas quickly recovered, though. This time, he filled his hammer with a lot more Divine Energy in order to protect it before retaliating.

'Red Mountain Strike!'

Once again, Dark Element quickly gathered with the use of Yin Energy, which combined with Blood Power from the Blood Path Sect's cultivation technique. Earth Element also took place there, showing that Trifas could use more than just Dark Element.

*Boom!*

The two weapons clashed against each other before a stalemate was created for a small moment. It's just that a hammer and a sword clashing was never a good thing for the sword. It would always have a smaller force behind it. With that said, Rean's body was sent flying back due to the impact. Then again, Rean was very behind in cultivation, so it made sense.

However, Trifas' hammer once again suffered the same fate. A big chunk of it came out as if his Divine Energy protecting it was of no use. He couldn't understand why.

Rean knew, though. It was because Trifas didn't know that the Dark Element he was using on it was of no use against Rean. If anything, Rean could harmonize Light and Dark, Yin and Yang, thanks to his connection with Roan. It was as if Trifas was helping Rean's attack get stronger the closer he got.

Nevertheless, he looked at Rean, who he sent flying. 'He should have broken a few bones with the impact just now.' Trifas was right. Rean did break one of his arms and two ribs from the clash. The difference in weapon and cultivation was that big. However, he also saw Light Element enveloping Rean's body.

'Life Style, Instant Recovery!'

In just a moment, Rean's bones were mended together as he got up. It looked like nothing had happened at all.

'What kind of power is that?!' Sure enough, Trifas was shocked by that sight. Yet, he understood that the longer this battle took, the worse it would become for him. 'I can't give him enough time to heal himself.' He put his concerns behind his mind and immediately attacked Rean once more.

However, Rean just smiled in response. "Are you sure you want to pay attention to me?"

Rean's words fell like a bucket of ice water on Trifas' head. He immediately focused on his Divine Sense, just in time to see hundreds of icicles coming from his side. No, he should have noticed it a moment earlier. But because Rean called his attention with his voice, his reaction time was a little slower than it should have. He immediately tried to rotate his hammer, but that slight delay made it too late to cover everything.

*Prak, prak, prak, prak...*

*Sphhhlt, sphhhlt, sphhhlt, sphhhlt...* ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovel(F)ɪre

He was able to block several of the icicles, but quite a few of them passed through his defense as well, hitting his body. 'Who?!' He knew that Jax was fighting Tiffany and Roan was fighting Rimari, so who was it that attacked him?

It turned out that it was Liana! Not only that, but Rean was also standing by her side. No, to be more precise, where Rean's clone was. Rean had used Roan's Death World to hide one of his clones and send him to heal Liana. He then explained to her the current situation with a Divine Sense message and told her to wait for a chance to appear. In the end, Rean's cultivation was just too far away from Trifas. If they really fought to the end, Rean would most likely lose. And that's where Liana came in.

Then again, Trifas had a strong body, so the icicles were not fatal, especially since he prioritized protecting the important points of his body. He used his Divine Energy to get rid of the icicles straight away as well. It's just that he knew that he was at a disadvantage now.

Trifas wasn't the only one at a disadvantage, though. Rimari wasn't faring any better either. The reason was the same as when he started to fight Rean, the weapon. Her needles were all at the Golden High-level, having a level similar to Roan's White Scythe. However, Roan's scythe was still a huge weapon against many small needles.

Rimari was used to having several of her needles broken during fights. That's why she had so many of them to use. However, every single time the real Roan attacked her, he would crush several tens of them, making Rimari lose more and more of it. After this long, Roan had already gotten rid of at least 50% of her needles.

Rimari couldn't help but curse inwardly, 'Just how long will his treasure last? It has been five minutes since he started to fight at my level!'

Sure enough, she was right. The power of the Glittering Crystal fueling Roan was quickly fading, but Rimari's defense was still too tight!
