YM778.TV Chapter 827 Breathing
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
The monster tried to get off the scythe blade, but the dark smoke completely restrained his movements. Wain wanted to save the creature he had created, but he was in no hurry to approach Death Phantom, as it was a good opportunity to see what he was capable of.
Death Phantom slowly let out a sigh as all the dark smoke quickly headed toward him. Passing through the monster, the smoke separated parts of it, gradually destroying it completely. After a while, there was nothing else on the scythe blade as Death Phantom absorbed all the dark smoke along with the toothy monster.
\'I see... This monster is scary not only for its physical stats but for the fact that it can devour almost anything... Damn, even my darkness is just a snack for it.\' Wain wondered with a frowned look.
\'Well, I think you can handle him easily. You won\'t need your Beyond or my power to do it, save your energy for the last two artifacts.\' Abyss Artist said with a slight smile on his face as if he was up to something.
\'Hmm? Do you think I can do it? How?\' Wain asked while in confusion.
\'Hah, haven\'t you forgotten about me even though I\'m in your hand the whole time?\' Gladius grinned, \'We have about five minutes left before I can no longer maintain such a high level of strength, so in that time we should deal with this ghost.\'
\'You mean use pure physical power?\' Wain uttered as he looked at Death Phantom, \'Well, maybe you\'re right. He\'ll just absorb all my energy, so that would be the best option. However, in that case, I won\'t be able to avoid a long confrontation.\'
\'Don\'t worry. No matter how fiercely you fight, I will be able to withstand powerful pressure for the next few minutes. Fight as hard and fast as you can at all right now, after all, we must not embarrass ourselves in front of one of the greatest swordsmen of this world.\' Gladius said as the eye on his guard looked at Gael.
\'That\'s him, right? Well, though he is adept at hiding his aura I can see how strong he is since the Vampire Progenitor seems to regard him as his equal.\' Wain wondered as he glanced at Gael.
\'He is the Progenitor of Ashens.\' Cursed Swordsman said in a serious voice, "His Title is invincible, anticipating your stupid question, yes, he\'s never lost to anyone, not even the Dragonlord.
Wain\'s eyes went wide as a wave of trembling ran through his body. He hadn\'t expected that the one he had so boldly looked into his eyes possessed such tremendous power. However, Wain was not frightened, instead, a maddened smile appeared on his face.
\'Well, hopefully, someday I can fight him and manage to break his title, but right now I have another equally important opponent.\' Wain muttered inwardly as he turned to face Death Phantom.
Phantom looked at him as if expecting Wain to act first.
"Fine, if you want me to attack, I will." Wain stepped forward as his aura became much weaker. Powerful streams of darkness stopped flowing out of his body as the ripples in the air disappeared.
"Damn... He hid his aura so well that I can barely feel anything at all, how did he do that?" Krakos asked with a confused look, "Could the Fourth Chronicle one have such good energy control? I mean... not even I could do it that well."
"Well... He can\'t do it either. It\'s just that he\'s decided to give up energy, that\'s all. Look at his footsteps, they literally make the ground shake. He\'s completely focused on physical power now." Gael said with a calm look while staring at Wain.
Whoooooooooosh.
Wain stepped forward as his silhouette blurred. He instantly appeared in front of Death Phantom with his sword pointed at the monster\'s neck. Death Phantom did not expect the attack to be so fast as he instinctively defended himself with a slash.
Crack. Crack. Crackle.
The two blades collided together as dozens of sparks flew out. Death Phantom was able to block the attack, but Wain seemed ready for it as he stepped forward, swung his sword, and grazed the monster\'s shoulder with the tip of his weapon.
A few drops of white liquid flew from the wound as if the monster had special blood and Death Phantom\'s eyes trembled. He couldn\'t believe someone could hurt him, it was a new, completely unfamiliar feeling to him.
"You seem confused. Well, some people think that pain is the worst feeling one can have, but in fact, it is the most rewarding. After all, it\'s only through pain that you can understand the somewhat shitty situation you\'re in." Wain said with an ice-cold look before swinging his sword.
Gladius struck like black lightning at Death Phantom as the ghost once again had to raise the scythe above him. He had to use the weapon as if it were a shield, for otherwise, Wain would simply cut him in two.
\'Honestly, I thought he could regenerate, but I guess I overestimated my enemy.\' Wain muttered inwardly while looking into the monster\'s terrified eyes. Now it was Wain\'s turn to instill terror with his gaze.
\'Not really. You just found your opponent\'s weak spot, so that\'s why you\'re about to win. If you tried to fight this ghost with energy, you would definitely lose.\' The Abyss Artist said with a slight smile on his face as though everything had gone according to his plan.
\'Wain... You have about two minutes left. My energy is running out...\' Gladius said in a slightly exhausted voice.
\'Yeah... I understand. Don\'t worry, I can do it in one minute. I\'m sure you will. Wain replied as his pupils narrowed.
Whoooooooooosh.
He turned into a dark flash with tremendous speed attacking the Phantom. Wain moved as fast as he could, and more and more small wounds appeared on Death Phantom\'s body, and there was already a stream of white blood beneath his feet.
