Rean's charge surprised his enemy. He didn't think Rean would make it through his Flying Sword Array like that. Without much choice, he could only open distance from Rean and his clones while attacking. He was a range-type cultivator, after all. However, he truly underestimated the speed Rean could achieve with his enhancement ability.
Rean kicked the water under his feet and advanced much faster than the enemy retreated. As for the flying swords, he and his clones disposed of them all with Three Claws of the Dragon. Rean could have used the Reversive Arcs to defend himself. However, it was easier to advance if he attacked back.
Eventually, Rean arrived at his enemy's range. 'You aren't the only one with ranged attacks.'
'Death Style, First Form, Stellar Piercer!'
"What?!"
The guy was taken aback as he saw that ray of Dark and Light Element coming in his direction. His only choice was to recall a few of his flying swords and use them to block the Stellar Piercer.
*Clang, clang, clang...*
However, because there wasn't anyone holding the flying swords, there wasn't a counterforce to fight against the Stellar Piercer. With that, he needed five flying swords to finally dispel the Stellar Piercer's strength. However, Rean didn't stop there.
Stellar Piercer, Stellar Piercer, Stellar Piercer, Stellar Piercer...
As Rean moved forward, more and more Stellar Piercers came out nonstop. That forced Rean's enemy to recall all his flying swords for the sake of defense alone. In the end, he could only send a Divine Sense Message to his companions. 'Help me here! This guy is crazy strong! I won't be able to hold back for long!'
However, when he noticed his companions' situation, his face went pale. Milina wasn't holding back at all on her Divine Energy expenditure, so she was overwhelming her opponent. From the looks of it, that guy needed a lot more help than him.
As for Samanta and Regio's opponent, he did have the advantage, but just slightly. After all, he was fighting two-on-one. There was no way he could detach himself from Regio and Samanta anytime soon, let alone help someone else. 'Fuck, where are Tinbik and Hemou? Why haven't they gotten the flag back yet?'
Well, they didn't bring it back because they didn't get it. Roan had used his Death Scythe against Tinbik, who dispelled his defensive skill. Because he thought that Hemou was fighting Roan, he didn't expect to be attacked at that moment.
Nevertheless, he was a member of the Holang Country and was able to turn around fast enough once Roan appeared in his Divine Sense's range. Unfortunately, he didn't have time to put up a good defense. No, to be more specific, Tinbik didn't even know how to defend against someone using a scythe. He had never seen anyone use that kind of weapon to start with.
*Swish!*
Tinbik tried to use his weapon to deflect Roan's Death Scythe, but it was all in vain. The scythe moved at an angle that he didn't know how to react, making him miss the right spot. The blade of the scythe began to penetrate his body when suddenly, his protective device activated, saving his life. Tinbik was the first person out of this battle.
Roan then turned around and charged at Hemou, who was fighting his clones. Normally, Hemou would have the advantage against clones with only 80% of the original body's power. Not to mention that the clones didn't have real scythes. However, he also didn't know how to fight against that kind of weapon, so he was having a hard time there.
Once Roan arrived, things became even worse for him to the point that he gave up on the flag and tried to leave Roan's Death World. After all, he was at least able to see his friend's defeat under Roan's hands. Too bad that it didn't work out for him. The Death World skill was something that had Roan as the center. The moment Hemou tried to flee, Roan followed him. Naturally, Death World did the same.
Sure, Hemou was a Water Element user. He could definitely move faster underwater than Roan. It's just that every time he tried to escape, one of Roan's clones would bar his way. The real one also kept harassing him from behind, making Hemou spend a lot of his strength to just dodge and defend attacks. Last but not least, Roan also used the Water Compression skill to make Hemou's life a living hell. 'Fuck! No one told me that this small fry country had such monsters helping them!'
Back at Rean's side, he finally got close enough to use his close-range skills. His clones, who also had the same black and white hair, joined the fray as well.
'Death Style, Three Claws of the Dragon!'
'Death Style, Fourth Form, Soaring Dragon!'
'Death Style...'
Rean and his clones used different skills, forcing the guy to defend in various ways from many sides. The lack of counterforce in his flying swords also worsened the situation. Eventually, Rean saw an opening in the guy's Flying Sword Array and didn't let the chance pass up!
'Stellar Piercer!'
*Arrrgh!*
Without being able to defend against it, the Stellar Piercer began to penetrate his right shoulder until it left through the other side. It wasn't an injury bad enough to force the activation of the Protective Device. Nevertheless, it definitely started a chain reaction.
Rean was using the Elemental Exchange with Roan, so his Stellar Piercer had Dark Element, which immediately began to destroy the guy's life force.
He couldn't focus on the defense as well as he did previously, so more and more injuries with Dark Element hit his body. The result was obvious, the threshold for the protective device to activate was achieved, and he was immediately enveloped by a barrier that Rean could break through.
"Well, that means he's out of combat." Rean, of course, had nothing against it.
He then looked at Milina and her opponent. However, he saw Milina go after the enemy's flag. As for her enemy, he was nowhere to be seen. Only after paying good attention to the surroundings did he see the guy fleeing.. "Oh! Guess I'll just go help Samanta and Regio."
