Chapter 1044: Against Three God Ranks"Bhahaha…." Tang Shaoyang laughed at Gungnir. "Three God Ranks for chasing a little runt? Don't you feel ashamed?"
'I can't escape from them even though I use Attribute Shift.' Tang Shaoyang saved the concern for himself. He used [Attribute Shift], increasing everything to Agility to enhance his speed. However, that was not enough to escape from the three God Ranks, even though he managed to shake them off for a while. 'But this should be far enough from the city. From their conversation, only one of them will fight me while the other two will block the lightning.'
"Don't fall for his provocation, Gungnir! We need to end this—" Windra did not finish his words as three lightning strikes them once more. This was the fourth strike, meaning they could only hold for another six Divine Lightning. "End this quickly, or we will leave you on your own!"
Bzzzt!
Gungnir's figure turned into lightning and rushed toward Tang Shaoyang. It was like a blink; in the next moment, Gungnir was already in front of him. Fast, but it was not fast enough to catch him off guard. He was prepared as he activated the [Thousand Blasts]. The Titan Blade met with Gungnir's lightning-covered fist.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thousands of explosions resounded as the shock wave spread out. At the same time, dozens of cracks appeared around them, sucking all the lightning from Gungnir.
"Damn! His void is quite strong to be able most of my lightning." Gungnir backed off, but then five arrows came after Tang Shaoyang. The arrows came from five different directions with different timing. He forcefully opened the void around him, taking all the arrows. It did not end there as the wind blade followed after the crack closed up.
Tang Shaoyang did not see the wind blades coming, and seven of the wind blades hit him. Sending him down to the ground.
"What are you two doing? He is my prey!" Gungnir turned around and questioned his friends. It was supposed to be him against Tang Shaoyang. Yet his two friends intervened in his fight.
"This is not about whose he belongs to. If you can't finish him quickly, then we will have to interfere. Your lightning seems useless against the Void!" The God Rank, with a bow, responded coldly.
Meanwhile, Tang Shaoyang immediately jumped away from where he crashed as a volley of arrows followed him. He flew to the sky once more, but his condition was not so good. His clothes were sliced open, and his flesh was also cut at the same time. The blood-colored his ruined clothes. That was right; he wore no armor but just clothes.
"I regret a little bit that I don't wear armor." Tang Shaoyang muttered while eyeing the three God Ranks arguing with each other. The throbbing pain reminded him of his past when he would get beaten in a street fight, giving him a nostalgic feeling.
[It's not the time to feel nostalgic, you idiot! Use everything you have until Avyn arrives, then use Integration with her! That way, you have a way higher chance to survive!]
Zara scolded him. Since they were in integration, Zara could feel what Tang Shaoyang felt. She could read his thoughts like it was her thoughts.
"You are right. This is my chance to use everything in a fight. I can't use everything because my opponent has been weaker than me all this time." The first thing he did was activate The Grand Dragon Transformation. His skin turned into black dragon scales, a tail popped on his butt, and he had an additional pair of dragon wings. It counted up to nine pairs of wings; not that it mattered in a fight, but the dragon wing was bigger than his angel wing, making it look awkward on him.
Tang Shaoyang checked his stats. Integration with Zara and the transformation boosted his stats up to a lower star Primordial Rank even though he was still Ancient Rank. Then Tang Shaoyang activated [Infernal Wrath], the skill he had never used before, or he just did not have a strong opponent to use everything he used right now. It was like a berserker, increasing all stats on him, reaching the lower star of the Demi-God stats.
"I think I understand why Gods will hunt the Spirit Contractor." Tang Shaoyang muttered by himself.
Gungnir seemed to be going crazy as he still argued with his two friends. Of course, the main reason was because of his self-esteem. They helped him to fight Tang Shaoyang, and that hurt his pride as a God Rank. He could not believe that his friend did not trust him enough to face Tang Shaoyang alone.
However, soon the three felt the surging power from the side. The three stopped arguing and turned toward the resource of the strong aura. "That's not the aura that an Ancient Rank is supposed to have! This dumb Gungnir gives him a chance to use the…. Wait, wasn't he using bloodline transformation with the fallen angel? What about the dragon?"
Windra found something amiss with the transformation, the angel wing was still there, but Tang Shaoyang was covered in dragon scale. It was unheard of to use two bloodline transformation skills at the same time, let alone mixing bloodline transformation. They heard about an individual with more than one bloodline but not using the transformation at the same time.
"This is bad. He does not just have Slayer Energy, but he is also a Spirit Contractor. That damned Antorias purposely hid that information from us. There's no way he did not notice that this heathen is a Spirit Contractor after fighting him." Windra cursed out. "Stop your bull—"
"Watch out!" Lasius warned his friends as he noticed Tang Shaoyang's presence next to him.
Tang Shaoyang appeared between the three and swung the Titan Blade three hundred and sixty degrees. The three managed to back away. However, they did not escape unscathed. Even though they were a meter away from the tip of the sword, their flesh was cut open. Blood gushed out from the big wound, but it healed in three seconds.
"It's an invisible sword! He can extend the blade with some invisibility!" Lasius saw through the [Invisible Slash] with his eyes. He had special eyes that could see the skill.
"This is not the time to argue about whose prey he is, Gungnir. We need to finish him before we run out of time!" The archer added.
