Chapter 479 Night Burial

Chapter 479 Night Burial

Though she said it as a casual warning, like it was no big deal, the truth was that Seth's ability to regenerate twisted her insides and made her believe that she might just be fighting an immortal.

The first time Seth had regenerated both his arms, Tera had been surprised but had been able to keep her feelings from showing.

Now, though she was still able to keep her thoughts to herself, her mind was forced to come to terms with the fact that perhaps regrowing his body parts and recovering from any injury was but a hand wave away for Seth.

After seeing how badly she had injured him after their first collision, Tera had held out hope that she could do it again and this time be able to make use of the advantage, but her next exchanges with Seth were telling her that that wasn't going to happen and that her initial win might have just been a fluke.

Right now, as Tera stood before Seth, readying herself for another clash, she decided to probe him and see if she could get information out of him.

Seth had killed a valued overseer under her watch, and Tera had hoped that if she could deal with him, especially since he ranked higher than her, she could redeem herself from such a blunder. But if Seth proved to be too formidable, then it would be better if she went on the back foot.

"You want to know how much qi I have, or you want to know how much longer I can last?" Seth asked with a smirk, and then he answered himself. "If it's the former, then well, long enough to beat the hell out of you, and if it's the latter, well, I'm brimming with energy," Seth boasted.

"Still cocky, I guess I'll just have to beat you some more then," Tera said, and with that, she swung the spear and settled herself into a battle stance, her legs wide and the blade of her weapon facing the ground. Seeing this, Seth was just about to throw in a snarky comment when a wave of really hot air blasted in all directions from Tera's position. n-(O()v/-E-.l-.b--1(.n

Without much worry, Seth allowed the hot air to hit him, ignoring it and instead staring at Tera, whose aura had begun climbing, and her qi spilling out.

"What now?" Seth mumbled as his question was quickly answered. As soon as the ground began trembling, he asked, "Are you some kind of earthquake mistress?" with a chuckle. But Tera gave him no reply; her face instead tightened to one of concentration. The next second, several cracks appeared in the earth around her, and as those cracks appeared, hot air began spilling out of them. Before Seth could even bother trying to understand what was happening, fire began spilling out of the cracks in the ground, shooting several meters into the air and leaving Seth looking at Tera, who was surrounded in a spring of fire.

"That's her law; her element is fire, but this isn't just normal fire. The fire has a liquid attribute, like it seeks to melt," Seth thought as he looked at the red flames that surrounded Tera, shooting into the sky and falling to the ground all around them.

With her preparations already made, Tera gritted her teeth, tightened her grip on the shaft of her spear, and then, looking at Seth, she blasted towards him. Seth had to say he was a little intimidated by her approach. With each step she took, the ground in front of her cracked, and from it came hot fire pouring out, burning and melting everything it touched well, everything except Tera.

"Hey, granny, hope you aren't taking this personally," Seth teased as he quickly kicked back and moved away from the location, which turned to nothing but a pool of flames the next second. Ignoring her missed slash, Tera charged after Seth once more, her face tightening, and the flames around her getting more fiery, seeming to react to her emotions.

While he retreated, Seth observed Tera and her actions with her flames, and seeing all this made him think about how the woman before him was only a calamity level 2 cultivator. Minuha was at the same level of cultivation with Tera and even had a more tentative element, but Seth was more than sure that if she and Tera were to battle, Tera might just kill Minitha within the first minute of their battle. Whereas Minuha had tried to deceive him with her element, conjuring images that weren't real, Tera, though severely limited, was able to bring out the real thing. Tera was able to make her element interact with the real world, her element carrying power capable of changing the landscape.

Not feeling like running away from Tera forever, after making his observations, Seth's body stopped moving, and the next second, several black spears, three times thicker than him, appeared in the space behind him, humming with ferocity. With an order from Seth, they began shooting at the approaching Tera one by one. Seth expected Tera to be taken aback after this move of his, but instead, she grinned, and it only took Seth a second to understand why.

"Foolish woman, just because I'm a youngster and I'm pouring my qi into my attacks doesn't mean you can outlast me in a battle of attrition."

Internally shaking his head, Seth watched as, with a single sweep of her spear, Tera dealt with each of his black spears and rapidly approached him.

"Let's make it rain then," Seth thought. Like that, while more black spears were being created behind him, over 20 immediately shot towards Tera, raining down on her like a bombardment.

"Good, that should keep her busy," Seth smirked, wanting to be entertained. But then, Tera let out a shout, and this time shattered the ground all around her, turning her immediate surroundings into a pool of fire. Then, thrusting her spear forward, she made the fire beneath her churn and rise to the air, taking on the form of a mighty spear and then shooting towards Seth's baby spears.

Without a doubt, were a collision to occur, Tera's attack wouldn't completely destroy Seth's, and though Seth was willing to let that happen, he wasn't willing to prolong their battle anymore. Ignoring the huge red spear that quickly obliterated his attacks and was heading towards him, Seth raised his right hand to the air, and within a second, night came. Then the next, like the dark sky was a wide maw, a sea of darkness poured from it and onto Tera.

"Night Burial," Seth announced as his attack fell, an excited chill.

"Man, I love the name," Seth excitedly thought just before he got the faint appearance of a new presence.

"Too late, no one in this world can save her."
