Chapter 149: Michael and the two women Vs Celestial Energy

"What a powerful music!" He was secretly surprised. This music, played by the two women, was not even targeted at him yet he could feel the overwhelming radiation of power in the air around him. If it was targeted at him with the purpose of hurting him, he would have literally blown away from the mountain, he was sure of it.

"Junior Sister, make him fall asleep with the Mayan sleeping tune. I'll try to keep his soul from getting refined," one of them said grimly. Although she seemed to be a powerful cultivator, it was extremely difficult to prevent someone's soul from getting refined and reaching the Soul Refining stage.

"Yes, Senior. I'll come help you as soon as I put him to sleep" The other woman spoke sternly before abruptly changing the way she played the veena. The music produced became much softer, and it contained a soul-soothing charm. The melodious tune could pierce through all barriers to affect the spirits of people, causing them to feel relaxed and sleepy.

The other woman's music also changed. Her tender fingers had already turned into blurs as they danced about on top of the veena strings, causing a lethal melody to fill all the surroundings. It caused the air around them to surge like a storm where the surroundings reacted to it.

Under the effect of this lethal melody, all the particles in the world and Arch Energy around the island were affected. All kinds of energy gathered from every direction under the melody's control before merging up to form a great, tightly-knit but invisible net, layering together to seal up the entire mountain and, as a result, obstruct the Arch Energy to be used in soul refining.

In addition, silvery notes shot out from the veena one by one. They quickly flew towards the Arch Energy with a destructive aura radiating in an attempt to interfere with the Arch Energy. Michael had long sensed that the Arch Energy they were blocking was extremely powerful, it was far superior to the Arch Energy he had seen and used. This superior Arch Energy was called Celestial Energy, anyone above the Core Strengthening stage could use a small portion of Celestial energy in the world. The higher they climb up the cultivation stages after the Soul Refining stage, the more one could utilize the Celestial energy in the world to cast a spell or increase their strength.

The Celestial Energy slowly descended from the sky with an intense aura. As the destructive notes clashed with the Celestial Energy, it would ripple slightly, but it did not disperse and soon collided with the huge net. The net could only slow down its descent, but it could not stop it.

The Celestial Energy slowly sank into the net, descending towards the cave.

The woman who blocked the Celestial Energy looked grimmer than before. The melody played by her abruptly changed, and the destructive feeling suddenly disappeared, replaced by a muffled tune.

This time the woman played the strings of her veena at a much slower speed, but with every string she struck, a muffled sound would reverberate in the sky. It contained great power as if it was capable of directly crushing the hearts of people. The surroundings were also greatly affected, and the entire region of space distorted greatly. As for where the Celestial Energy descended, space was directly annihilated, creating a black hole with a diameter of five meters in an attempt to engulf the Celestial energy.

"Holy Shit" Michael felt a cold chill crawling through his spine when he saw the black hole in the sky swallowing the Arch Energy in the surroundings.

He did not dare to break the two girls' concentration by opening his mouth, he just held onto a mountain wall, trying not to fly into the black hole.

The Celestial Energy descended from the sky after passing through the various obstructions; even though there was the huge invisible net created by these two girls, it continued forwards with an extremely steady pace. No matter what stood in its path, nothing could stop Celestial Energy from advancing. It directly ignored the black hole formed from the destroyed space and passed through it, continuing onwards.

"The Celestial Energy this time is much more powerful than last time. Junior, quickly make him fall back asleep, I can't keep this much longer." The woman responsible for blocking the Celestial energy's descent seemed desperate and, shortly afterward, the melodies rang out hurriedly once again. The visible waves of sound shot out with great lethality, flying towards the Celestial Energy.

But even with all of this, it was unable to stop the descent of the Celestial Energy. Currently, the Celestial Energy that slowly descended from the sky was less than a thousand meters from Angel peak Mountain.

"Argh!" A shrill cry filled with utmost pain rang out. Shortly afterward, the cave in the distance rumbled loudly a few times, causing the entire mountain to shake slightly.

"Gods! his mind and soul are resisting the tunes. I'm failing to make him fall asleep" The other woman's expression changed greatly, shouting at her junior.

Hearing that, the face of the woman who was responsible for obstructing the Celestial Energy darkened, drops of cold sweat could be seen on her pretty face. After a few moments of silence, she spoke out, "There's not much time left. If he doesn't fall asleep, he'll die for sure when the Celestial Energy reaches his soul. Use the soul-controlling melody!"

With that, the woman turned around to Michael. She requested, "Ghost, please help us fight the Celestial Energy from descending"

"Just what's happening?" Michael asked bewildered. How could he, a mere Body Strengthening cultivator fight the Celestain Energy? At least if he had the system online, he would have felt somewhat confident in fighting the Celestial Energy but the system wasn't online, hence he was reluctant.

"There's no time to explain it right now. We just can't let the Celestial Energy descend on him, or he'll die " The woman replied with a rushed, deep voice, while she continued playing the veena. Visible powerful sound waves shot towards the Celestial Energy, slowing its descent.

After a slight deliberation, Michael did not choose to stay idle, not because of the goodness of his heart but to help himself by helping these girls. If he refused to help them, they would definitely chase him away, no questions about that. He simply couldn't leave the mountain without meeting Lailah who was the only hope he had to save the baby dragon.

"What can I do?" He asked, preparing to help these girls.

"Attack the Celestial Energy!" Just like any other energy in this world, Celestial Energy had no physical manifestation. He could only sense the high concentration of the Energy above him, clashing with the barrier created by the girls.

Michael cracked his neck before stepping on his flying sword to fight the Celestial Energy. He did not however use the lightning dash to fly towards it headstrong in case the Celestial Energy was too intense for him to even get close.

"Damn it!" His face was lit by the first notification but soon, the light was put down by later notifications. He let out his frustrations by punching the center point of the Celestial energy concentration.

Except when his fist collided with the Celestial Energy, it actually just passed through. Unlike the normal Arch Energy, the Celestial Energy was not tangible as his punch did not affect it at all.

The light in Michael's eyes flickered. With a thought, he conjured the Arch energy in his body to surround the space before him, freezing the particles in the air in an attempt to slow down the Celestial Energy's descending.

However, what surprised Michael was that Celestial Energy completely ignored the frozen space. It moved about freely, just as before, and slowly descended.

"Fuck it! Wind blast" since he found no way of stopping the Celestial Energy, he frantically shot out blasts of wind at the energy.

Surprisingly, the wind blast proved more useful than his punches or freezing the air around him. Each blast distributed the trajectory of the Celestial Energy, slightly, very slightly slowing the energy.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 2000 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 3000 badass points]

Michael quickly turned his gaze at the two women to see a slight shock in their eyes, it was hardly worth mentioning but it was there, a mix of shock and surprise. The 5000 badass points motivated him to fire numerous wind blasts at the Celestial energy without worrying about the Arch Energy limit in his body. He always knew the wind blast can't be a useless spell and now he was proven right.

However, this did not last for very long. Although Michael's wind blasts proved to be useful against the Celestial Energy, it was not near powerful enough to compete with the Celestial Energy, and since Michael was only a Body Strengthening cultivator and the spell was at level 2, the Celestial Energy continued to descend, pushing Michael further and further down.

Watching as the Celestial Energy grew closer and closer to the cave, Michael also became uneasy. He was currently pondering over whether he should keep fighting a battle that he cannot win.

Just as he was thinking, an elegant but powerful veena melody slowly appeared in the sky. It seemed to be divine, and with its appearance the entire space became blurry. Clear ripples had appeared.

At this moment, the entire region of space seemed to become a huge veena, while the ripples of space that constantly appeared were the strumming of strings. As the strings formed from the space were constantly hit, bending the laws of this world and causing the space around Angel peak Mountain to become its own world, a different domain.

And in this domain, the descending Celestial Energy was forcefully halted, as if they were locked up mid-air by mysterious energy and unable to move at all.

When the two women heard the veena, they immediately rejoiced, they heaved a sigh of relief as their faces brightened. They both stopped playing and called out, "Mistress, you've finally come out of seclusion!"

"Argh!" A shrill cry rang out from the cave again. It was filled with pain as if it was enduring unbearable torture.

"And you're still not sleeping!"

A gentle voice originated from the space, and it seemed to be filled with an utmost charm. With just a single sentence, it seemed to be able to make everything in the world fall asleep. With that, the cries from the cave finally stopped, and shortly afterward there was the sound of something heavy falling onto the ground, followed by nothing but silence.

The words did not only affect the person gone mad in the cave. Even Michael was greatly affected, he immediately felt refreshed and calmed. His eyelids felt heavy, and they became drowsy.

However, he returned to his senses very quickly. The charm of the sound could no longer be described as terrifying. If he was in a battle and they suddenly became distracted, as a world's best assassin, he knew a second of distraction would cost his life.

"This is terrifying" Michael mumbled, he couldn't help but feel a small sprout of fear growing inside him.
