Chapter 383: Breaking Through in Battle, Ghost Descends!

Chapter 383: Breaking Through in Battle, Ghost Descends!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A few months ago, when they were fighting the Sand Earthworm Dragon, Ah Yan was already a pseudo monarch. Although it was still a pseudo monarch, its battle power was now much larger.

It had only been a year since Yama Ghost King was born, and it was only a one-year-old baby. How could it not have developed after a few months?

At this moment…

Ah Yan’s nomological mark appeared, and its black robe flapped. An ordinary ghost claw appeared in his hand like the claw of a Demon God that covered the sky, almost tearing space apart.

Under the collision, the Steel God Soldier with the might of a monarch was forced back.

This scene made everyone’s eyes widen.

Whether it was the eyes of the Sprite Trainers from the Dark Society or the eyes of the applicants.

Who among them had ever seen a pseudo monarch fight head-on with a monarch? Even top-level sprites known to be invincible against pseudo monarchs could only barely survive against real monarchs.

It was already very impressive that a sprite could survive at all!

“It must be that the Steel God Soldier has yet to use its full strength!”

The Sprite Trainers of the Dark Society thought.

The Steel God Soldier indeed had yet to unleash its full power. Seeing that it had been blocked by a “weak” sprite, it was also quite embarassed. And even though its head was a steel helmet and it had no expression, there was still a repressed aura spreading out.

A wisp of grayish-gold light lingered.

When faced with such an existence, the other metal-element sprites couldn’t help but let out a whimper of submission.

Steel Wing Slash!

This strike was similar to the crow’s slash. A grayish-gold light dozens of meters long whistled as it tore through the air. Even from hundreds of meters away, all the sprites could feel the sharp aura.

It felt as painful as when a solidified weapon scratched one’s face!

But at this moment…

The target of the gray-gold light, the black-robed sprite suspended in the air, had no intention of dodging. It could dodge, but it changed its usual tactics instead. The shadow mark became brighter and brighter, and the black smoke cloud started enveloping its surroundings, its aura constantly rising.

Ah Yan felt that this was its opportunity.

It was an opportunity to break through.

With this battle, its body, energy, and spirit would completely fuse together and it would be able to break through directly!

It could be able to break through at least ten days earlier!

Hu ~!

The wind howled.

The shadow seemed fierce.

Mosaic ghosts appeared one after another behind Ah Yan, lined up, and raised their right hands in unison.

Shadow energy lingered, and the black ghost claws tore forward.

Ghost claws and ghost shadows overlapped, and black smoke covered the sky.

Boom!

The ghost claw managed to grab onto the crescent-shaped gray-gold light. However, the gray-gold light was also constantly tearing apart the huge ghost claw. Countless dense shadow energy spread out from the spot where the ghost claw was being torn… The whole sky became even darker. They were clearly in the Lava Fire Cave, but everyone only felt a cold aura rising up from the soles of their feet to rush into the sky. Their protective halos were also fidgeting.

Just the aura alone was unbearable.

However…

The gray-gold light and huge ghost claw were locked in a stalemate again.

The deadlock was especially obvious.

Many Sprite Trainers of the Dark Society looked at the Steel God Soldier with reverence and a hint of doubt.

It was as if they were wondering the same thing Su Hao had just wondered. “Monarch rank, is that all you got?”

“This Steel God Soldier is indeed… a little embarrassing for monarch rank. It’s even worse than the Sand Earthworm Dragon back then.”

Su Hao could tell at a glance the reason why the Steel God Soldier was weak.

Its advancement direction was wrong!

The Steel God Soldier was a metal-element sprite that was good at defense and attack at the same time. The common cultivation directions for such a sprite included Iron Fist Flowing Steel God Soldier, Body Flowing Steel God Soldier, Martial Skill Flowing Steel God Soldier, and so on.

The Steel God Soldier Armor in front of him was trained pretty well… It was very likely that it had walked the Iron Fist Style in the past.

However, during the advancement, a pair of Steel Wings evolved, and that ended up becoming the strongest part of the Steel God Soldier… One had to know that the Steel God Soldier itself could already fly without the wings.

In order for the sprite to develop the Steel Wings, it would have to give up on the original Iron Fist Style tactics.

Maintaining the old tactical system, on the other hand, would waste the advantage it gained from advancing.

“So, choosing a path that suits sprites during advancement is very, very important.”

Of course.

This Steel God Soldier could still be saved. Although it couldn’t take the path of the fist nor could it take the path of the wings, It could still develop a two-handed, double-edged sword style tactic that could be used in close combat… In that case, despite still not having a single strong direction, at the very least, it could unleash all the advantages of the Steel-Winged Steel God Soldier.

…

The Steel God Soldier was a little spiritless, but it was still a real monarch rank nonetheless.

With a wave of its wings, grayish-gold light was slashed down once again. The aftershock of the explosion split the surrounding rocks apart. Lava flowed, and only the black smoke that covered the sky remained intact.

The advancement ritual of the Crow continued to proceed.

In the sky, two figures—one gray-gold and the other ghostly—kept exchanging blows. Rumbling sounds kept coming as circles of aftershock spread.

From the looks of it, the Steel God Soldier was ultimately a monarch rank, so it had a slight advantage. The gray-gold light gradually tore apart the huge ghost claw.

But…

Everyone’s eyes were still wide open.

Especially the Dark Society blackened officer. He had two pseudo monarchs, but… they wouldn’t last a second against a monarch. If a sprite was able to survive against a monarch, it already meant that the sprite was a top-level pseudo monarch. And yet Su Hao’s pseudo monarch was able to fight a monarch with only a slight disadvantage.

It didn’t make sense!

“The monarch power and destructive power of the Steel God Soldier are very real. The black-robed sprite must be a disguised monarch for it to be able to resist it so well. It’s definitely just a monarch pretending to be a pseudo monarch!”

It wasn’t just the Sprite Trainers of the Dark Society who had such thoughts. Many applicants also had the same thoughts.

After all, only monarchs could fight monarchs!

But…

“Its aura seems to be strengthened again.”

“Why do I have a feeling that the black-robed sprite is about to… break through? Break through to the monarch realm?!”

At this moment…

The black smoke that shrouded the sky became thicker and thicker. Even the dazzling gray-gold light gradually drowned in the dense shadow.

In the violent explosion, countless black smoke spread out like a black storm.

Everyone saw that the ghost claw that stretched out was starting to become even more terrifying. It actually managed to crush the gray-gold light, and the remaining tattered ghost claw continued to tear forward.

At the same time…

The howling storm gradually became different. Countless energy particles gathered in between Heaven and Earth, with the Shadow Element being the most dominant element.

“Is it really going to break through?!”

“Impossible. Even if one can break through in battle, without a proper set up or sufficient spiritual energy, its breakthrough will still end up stopping halfway!”

Someone looked at the red cocoon of light. There were also countless elemental particles gathering there, surging like a fiery red river.

At this moment…

Under the influence of the black-robed sprite’s breakthrough, some fiery red elements flew into the sky.

But…

“The ritual venue is set up with fire-element spiritual jades, and the black-robed sprite is a ghost-element sprite. Even if it can absorb a portion of fire-element spiritual energy, that would still only be a drop in the bucket.”

Contrary to what they thought, the black-robed sprite in the sky started to shake again, and the fiery red elements flying towards it started returning one after another.

The whole sprite even flew forward, hitting the Steel God Soldier until the metal sprite couldn’t help but retreat. At the same time, the black-robed sprite also flew out of the evolution field!

“I get it now, It knows that it can’t break through, so it doesn’t want to affect the evolution of the Flaming Spiritcrow.”

One of the applicants verbalized his analysis and many others agreed with him.

But if the black-robed sprite fails to complete the breakthrough, its soaring aura would gradually decline, and it would once again lose its advantage.

It was even possible that the black-robe sprite would lose the battle due to being affected by the failure of the breakthrough.

Thinking of this, the applicants became anxious again.

Boom!

Rumble!

The battle in the sky continued on. Just the aftershock alone was enough to mess up the whole Lava Fire Cave.

The Sprite Trainers of the Dark Society were also waiting for the result of the battle.

The sullen Steel God Soldier was also eager to find out who would win. It was waiting for the aura of the black-robed sprite to weaken so that it could showcase its monarch power!

The sullen Steel God Soldier was also waiting. When the aura of the black-robed sprite weakened, it would be the time to showcase its monarch power!

It thought.

Its Sprite Trainer also had the same thoughts.

Relying on its defensive power, the Steel God Soldier kept resisting the powerful attacks of the black-robed sprite to stall for time.

1 second passed!

10 seconds passed!

30 seconds!

100 seconds!

The shadow elements between Heaven and Earth were still swarming and gathering. The aura of the black-robed sprite was also rising steadily. The nomological mark on its forehead glowed, and the ghost claws it tore out became increasingly terrifying. The mosaic ghost shadows behind the black-robed sprite also started becoming stronger.

The Steel God Soldier was stunned.

A terrifying ghost claw tore apart the gray-gold light and swept past its body, leaving several clear black claw marks on its armor.

At the same time…

Boom…

The shadow elements within a radius of several kilometers were swept away. The Yama Ghost King’s aura, which had risen to its limit, finally broke through the barrier, turning it from a pseudo monarch aura to a real monarch.

Terrifying monarch pressure descended.

All the shadow elements in the world suddenly submitted.

In the sky, an area which was several kilometers long and more than ten kilometers wide suddenly turned dark. A black curtain had enveloped the sky!
