" Damnit...That Undead Horde king is here. "
" What!...."
" Sigh...now I just wish that he would quickly fill up his battlefield gauge to 100% and leave this first-level battlefield. "
...
Athan was currently on the battlefield sitting on a majestic throne as it floated in the air.
The throne had black metallic luster and golden plated design that ever so glowed with mysterious shines.
His get-up also changed as he wore a shining blue robe with light red, golden, and silver design and inscribed patterns on it.
The throne was the armament form of DeathKnight, while the robe was the armament form of Lucent.
Athan was currently busy because he was doing something inside his Erudite palace and was not paying attention to his army as they slaughtered the metallic beast all around him.
But the throne under him still moved forward as his army defeated the metallic beast all around him.
Inside his Erudite palace, Athan ( genesis avatar ) took out the treasure he got from the Ifrit Dandraif castle, The peak-grade Spirit rule enchantment.
Skylord suddenly got excited when Athan took out the Spirit Rule enchantment, which looked like a cube that glowed with gold, dark orange, and green color.
" Master...That thing. I feel that It can make me directly step into the second stage of the Spirit Armament. "
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAthan was surprised hearing it, " What do you normally have to do to reach the second stage? "
Skylord told Athan that it would need to put the armament fragments inside his soul altar and then slowly merge them into the soul altar.
When the amount is enough, They will break through to the second stage of the spirit armament.
The peak-grade spirit rule enchantment could make altar spirit reach the second stage in one go if they merged it with their soul altars.
The high-grade spirit rule enchantment can move the progress up to seventy-five percent. The medium and low-grade spirit rule enchantment can move the progress up to fifty percent and twenty-five percent, respectively.
Athan now could sense the power from this cube since he is already in the Spirit Astride plane. Previously, He was still in the profound domain plane and couldn't sense rule power completely. That's why he had to ask that Blumbra race man.
He could sense that the cube contained pure offensive power, and that's why he decided to give this to Skylord, who only had offensive attributed power.
Athan then gave the cube to Skylord, who took it to his soul altar and merged the cube with the soul altar.
" Master, It will take some time to finish the process because I will be strengthening form and get the new ability during this breakthrough. "
" No need to hurry. Just take your time and breakthrough without messing up. "
...
Outside, Athan saw that his battlefield level gauge was filled up to 97% and felt that he would likely reach 100% after clearing this hotspot.
To speed up the thing, he started to attack as well.
But he was still sitting on the throne and didn't move because he could fight while sitting on the throne. Actually, sitting on the throne would make his attacks even more powerful.
With a tap of his finger, Four giant phantasm arms appeared around him. The arms had a luster black surface and golden patterns.
After sitting on the Throne, which was DeathKnight's armament form, Athan could be protected by the invisible barrier around him that would be activated as long as he sat on the throne.
The Throne was also capable of moving very fast if he willed so and consumed his energy.
" Deathly Bound "
Athan used the main ability of DeathKnight's first spirit armament form.
The four giant hands moved forward quickly while leaving dark golden trails behind and releasing the black lights from their palms.
When the black light hit any Metallic beast, It would form a bubble around that beast with dark gold waves inside it, and then the beast would slowly die by the withering.
DeathKnight lost all of its energy in this attack because Athan didn't hold back as he wanted to defeat as many metallic beasts as possible with this move.
His army also continued its mayhem, and his battlefield gauge was slowly and gradually filling up.
98.66%
98.99%
99.34%
99.67%
99.99%
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRight when it reached 99.99%, Athan stopped.
He dissolved his army and didn't attack any metallic beasts out of caution.
By chance, if he directly went to the second level battlefield when his gauge filled to full, which was most likely in a different space than this one, Then he wouldn't be able to call back Tiana and others to his special space with his soul technique.
So Athan decided to call everyone back to his special space before deciding, but suddenly, He felt a mysterious power enveloping him that had the presence of Skylord.
" Looks like Skylord reached the second stage. "
He then observed the soul altar of Skylord, which looked like a mountain with a cave door. Skylord was inside his soul altar, and this soul altar was currently shining with golden sparks.
But after one second of him observing the soul altar, His face changed into an awful one as he cursed under his breath.
This was because after one second of Skylord breaking through; He could feel his body pulled by something and instantly appeared in a different place.
Right when he was confused about this, He heard the familiar voice inside his head.
[ You can no longer stay in the first level battlefield and will be directly sent to the second level battlefield because level one battlefield does not allow any presence of altar spirits who have reached the second stage of Spirit Armament. ]
This was likely because when the altar spirit reached the second level, Their power would trip the balance of the level of the battlefield.
Athan observed his surroundings and was surprised to find that there was no ground under him. He was currently floating in the air with clouds around him.
Up in the sky were countless small and colorful dots that looked like stars.
Putting this aside, He hurriedly used his soul technique to sense if it was working and found to his dismay that it was not working.
But then, He facepalmed and realized a crucial point.
" I don't need to worry about them anymore. They have caught up to this layer's general power level and are more powerful than normal people due to their more powerful primal energy and a powerful means like genome power. "
