Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Novel

Chapter 542: Phantasmal Power

-----

Mikoto and Yukihime ended rather exhausted, Austr power as a Peak-Stage Rank 4 Vampire was not to scoff at, his amazing resourcefulness, technique, and magic power was incredible, and he showcased it whenever he had the opportunity, ultimately overwhelming his two foes!

The spear he had formed in mere seconds was aiming at them, made entirely out of magic and dark energy, it was good enough to be capable of skewering the two! Austr also had an amazing aim! He was aiming not just at that but to pierce the two ghosts' mana cores.

Although he had not fought ghosts before, he knew that they had mana cores inside of their phantasmal bodies, if these were destroyed, the ghost would lost most of their power, and if that were to be damaged, they would lose most of their energy and could even ultimately end up dissipating away, which was like death for ghosts!

"Not on my watch."

SLAAASH!

However, a massive blade made of ice and covered in various lustrous metals and decorations emerged before the spear made of magic that Austr fired, slashing it in half and making it explode before it reached the dragon and her master!

BOOOOOMMM!!!

Austr looked in disbelief as another player had joined the fight, a gigantic living blade! It was so big it easily surpassed 10 meters of length, and it seemed more like an enormous pillar than a weapon itself. Even ice giants would have difficulty in wielding such a weapon.

"What kind of weapon…?! A living weapon… An intelligent weapon…! I've never seen one that can move interpedently though!" thought Austr, as he felt impacted by the gigantic blade.

The blade was of course Uller, the powerful Ice Blade, and the second intelligent weapon that Drake had ever made. He had been made later than Skadi, but even then he always had a great potential within him, and now that he was recently upgraded, his power was overflowing from his blade-like body constantly, an aura of icy winds encompassed his surroundings, even Austr felt a chill run through his spine by confronting this enormous blade!

FLAAAASH!

Uller didn't wasted a single second, flying towards Austr without saying a single word more, and clashing against him with all his might!

CLAAAAASH!

Austr used his powerful dark accursed blade to defend, as the blade of Uller clashed strongly against his sword. The two swords began to clash against one another, as their powerful blades produced sparks of mana everywhere!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! SLAAASH!

Austr gritted his teeth, finding out that Uller was obviously way more dexterous at the blade than himself! Who could be the better at using the sword than a sword himself anyways?

His cursed blade was strong, though, and it possessed countless wailing dark spirits within, which produced a dark accursed aura that boosted his physical strength by covering his body. Of course, this blade was deadly as it drained the vitality of the wielder, it wasn't a Cursed Blade for nothing.

But as a Vampire, he was easily capable of providing with a lot of vitality, as it was a pseudo-undead being, he was able to give out a lot of energy as long as he had mana and could drink some blood, ordinary wielders would easily succumb to the blade's curse, of course, but a vampire was able to abuse them very well, this was why mostly all Vampires that Drake had ever seen wielded cursed equipment and weapons!

CLAAAAASSSSHH!

BOOM!!!

An explosion of darkness was unleashed the moment Austr clashed against Uller once more, distracted with the fight against such a powerful enemy, he began to think in ways to defeat an intelligent weapon, but he was rather hopeless.

Intelligent weapons were just incredible, capable of having incredibly sturdy bodies, strong piercing attacks, fly, use magic, and lacked any of the weaknesses that living beings had. The only way to kill one was by simply breaking it through overwhelming strength.

Of course, as they were an inert item with a soul inside and mana as the only source of power, it was possible for it to grow weaker if it had its mana drained away… The same way Lily was able to keep up with Skadi using her Cursed Spear, Austr was using his Cursed Blade to drain the Mana out of Uller and weaken him continuously.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

However, Mikoto and Yukihime were not there standing and looking without doing nothing, the two ghosts quickly reached Austr from behind! Yukihime used her ice blade and combined it with other of her technique, creating all sorts of illusions as she unleashed a barrage of slashing attacks!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! CLAAASH!

Meanwhile, Mikoto kept her distance and unleashed countless beams of moonlight at Austr from afar, while keeping an eye around the area, while taking down any pesky Blood Shadow Beast that might try to get in the way!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Uller continued to charge forward, his blade was incredibly heavy, Austr, even with all his might, was incapable of properly overwhelming this blade, if things continued this way, it would only become worse!

And yes, it got even worse with the appearance of two more Ghosts in the game, as a sudden appearance of purple smoke around the entire place startled Austr, he and the ones he was fighting against suddenly found themselves in a gigantic cloud of poisonous and toxic gases, the power of Vasilisius, the Ancestor of the Jade Snake Sect was acting in this space right now! ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net .

Usually, poison and toxins wouldn't affect Vampires, as they were immune to most status effects, but this one was made out of poison magic, it was able to easily ignore his immunities and intoxicate his body with these poisons, making him grow weaker and paler! His energy suddenly began to deplete faster than usual, and even his breath became intense as he realized this poison was actually affecting him!

The laughter of the malicious Jade Snake Sect Ancestor resonated around Austr's surroundings!

"Gahahahah! Prepare yourself to die!"
