Chapter 198 - Fight Against a Stage Six! Recovery!

The great sage in the sky noticed this bad turn of events and was about to help them, but an even more powerful aura suddenly burst out from the aberrated Lanzhi Sage!

Circles of dark light rippled from him, and Lanzhi Sage’s body swelled. Part of his flesh and blood exploded, and dancing tentacles drilled out of his body. Following this, Lanzhi Sage’s power also skyrocketed!

“Enjoy the stage show I prepared for you all.” With a low growl, Lanzhi Sage actually stopped the great sage and the high priest from leaving the battle and returning to the ground by himself by relying on his skyrocketed power.

Among the crowd, that Stage Six Fallen One who had nobody to stop him became a nightmare for the people and warriors.

The warriors with firm conviction were easily torn apart by him. Panic and despair continued to spread in the hearts of the people!

The goal of this Fallen One was also extremely clear, which was to reach the location of the wounded and contaminated warriors.

This was to catalyze the pollution of those warriors’ bodies further, make them completely aberrate, and expand the Fallen Ones’ advantage.

Just when the warriors were unable to stop his footsteps, a figure suddenly blocked the front of the Fallen One.

This figure was a young man with a long blade—inlaid with amethyst—in his hand. His face was firm, and his figure was tall and straight!

It was Link!

The Fallen One’s eyes were filled with madness and narrowed slightly, and his hideous face had a bit of a smile on it. “It’s you again! Kid, you are just a civilian. You’re not even a warrior, and you dare to appear in front of me to seek your death?”

Aisha nervously watched this on one side, her face pale.

It should be known that a Stage Six Fallen One was a powerhouse strong enough to become a general of the city guards!

Their degree of danger far exceeded that of ordinary evil beings!

Link didn’t say a word, only enduring the tingling pain in his mind silently. He slowly raised the long blade, with the tip of the blade pointing at the Fallen One.

During the fight with evil beings just now, Link had already noticed some problems. There seemed to be a shackle or barrier in his body.

The abundant power he previously felt had gushed out from the cracks in the shackles, but now he needed more power—enough power to change the current situation!

“Kill!” With a violent shout, Link used his mental power to charge at the faint barrier in his body. On the other hand, he launched a charge toward the Stage Six Fallen One, his body as swift as lightning!

“Humph.” The Fallen One snorted coldly, his ugly face full of scorn and contempt. The arms that had transformed into huge tentacles swung out fiercely, causing the air to explode!

Boom!

Circles of airwaves spread toward the surroundings, and sand and pebbles splashed everywhere!

The Fallen One’s attack missed and landed on the ground, but the great destructive power still left deep cracks on the ground. This made the hearts of those who saw this turn cold!

Link flashed aside, and without any stagnation, charged toward the Fallen One again, quickly approaching the Fallen One.

“Oh?! You actually managed to avoid my attack? You won’t be so lucky next time!” A look of surprise flashed in the Fallen One’s eyes, but he took this to heart.

Although the kid in front of him was a little abnormal and actually avoided his attack on instinct, this kid was just a civilian in the end; he could easily kill him!

Swoosh!

The piercing sound of breaking wind sounded as Link abruptly slashed his blade while he approached. Using the strength of his spinning body, he poured all his magic and energy into the blade!

The purple light blooming on the blade became more and more radiant suddenly, looking like purple thunder as it smashed down on the Fallen One!

A joke-like look flashed in the Fallen One’s eyes, and he didn’t dodge Link’s attack. Another giant hand—which had expanded several-fold—suddenly rose and directly grabbed at the blade’s sharp edge!

With a ‘chi’ sound, the blade collided with the giant palm covered in scales, bringing up a spark. However, it was unable to cause effective damage.

On the contrary, the tyrannical force carried by the giant palm created several cracks on the blade, making the blade give off an ear-rattling humming sound!

The cracks expanded at lightning speed. Finally, the blade was completely shattered, and the fragments shot in all directions!

Link pulled away from the Fallen One and backed away, only a section of the hilt left in his hand.

“Die!” Due to failing to kill a civilian after two successive attacks, the Fallen One was a bit annoyed. With a violent shout, his figure suddenly moved!

The huge aberrated body didn’t affect his speed in the slightest. He was like a fast-moving high wall, exuding a huge sense of oppression.

His aberrated arm swung out brazenly, bringing out a terrifying airwave. He wanted to crush Link’s head!

The faces of the warriors and Aisha—who were at the sides—changed, but there was no way to stop the Fallen One. They could only nervously stare at this scene, their hearts rising to their throats.

They then saw Link quickly discarding the hilt in his hand before using magic power to control a weapon left by a warrior on the ground, summoning it into his hand.

Link’s eyes were extremely cold. Without the slightest panic in the face of desperation, the sword-like weapon in his hand was swung out to meet the Fallen One’s violent attack!

Under Link’s infusing of magic power into the weapon, the amethyst inlaid on the sword shone brightly, and intense sword intent permeated from it!

Numerous sharp sword energies appeared, accompanying the weapon and colliding with the Fallen One’s giant palm!

Amidst the explosion, Link was pushed back by the force. His face was pale, but there was a flash of joy in his eyes.

Sword energy! This was a power he had never mastered!

With the help of this life-and-death battle, Link could detect that cracks had appeared on the shackles in his body, and turbulent power was pouring out from them!

“Again.” After confirming the effects of fighting, there wasn’t any way that Link would miss this opportunity.

His figure violently moved again, and he actually pounced toward the Fallen One once again, taking the initiative to the extreme!

All the warriors were a bit stunned. This kid really is quite fierce! He’s so courageous; does he not want to live anymore?

What made them even more surprised and shocked was that this young man was able to fight back and forth against a Stage Six Fallen One!

This strength far surpassed most of the city guards! At least, they couldn’t achieve this; they could only be crushed by the Stage Six Fallen One.

Anger flashed in the Fallen One’s heart at this moment. In his opinion, this young man’s behavior was a kind of provocation.

And his multiple failures to kill this person made him feel irritable and uneasy. He could perceive that this ant in front of him seemed to be getting stronger continuously!

“Since you are seeking death, I shall fulfill your wish!” The Fallen One roared, the corrosive aura all over his body vibrated, and his attack became even more terrifying!

Boom!

The collisions sounded constantly, the ground shattered, the pebbles were splashing, and the surrounding soldiers and civilians had to retreat far away, in fear of being affected by the stray energies resulting from their battle.

During the several collisions and confrontations, Link was suppressed by the Fallen One all the time; there were also many occasions where he almost died.

Link was like a flatboat, constantly swaying in the turbulent storm. He was on the verge of overturning many times, yet he still endured.

“Weak ant, have you seen the gap? Accepting the aberration is the only way for our race to survive!” The Fallen One grinned hideously and repelled Link again as he tried to persuade him.

At this moment, he was quite shocked. It was obvious that this young man was still very weak previously, but after crossing swords a few times, his strength was increasing continuously!

It was incredible!

And now, the Fallen One was forced to put away all his contemptuous thoughts and take Link seriously!

Link was noncommittal. Instead, he rushed forward once again, his biting sword intent shooting into the sky!
