Chapter 773 Four Pillars: Pulling All Stops
?"Haah... haah... haah..."
Feeling incredibly out of breath, Valyr laid flat on the ground as he gasped for air.
At the same time, he took a brief glance at the one who threw the attack at him, only for him inwardly let out a sigh soon after.
'Not even a bead of sweat,' muttered the young man to himself, his mind going through the memories of what had just transpired earlier.
With Daon making the first move, Valyr was left with no choice but to defend against the terror that someone in the middle levels of Rank 6 could unleash.
Having conjured almost all of his defensive skills beforehand, the young man felt confident that his skills would be able to handle all of them with ease, considering that his stats were considerably higher than a normal warrior at the peak of Rank 3.
Yet, contrary to his beliefs, all of his defensive skills did not even stand a chance against Daon's attack, toppling down like a house made out of sticks.
And that was already including the fact that he had activated [Dark Arcane Mirror], which was a defensive skill that had helped him tip the scales towards his favor many times already.
But even that stood no match for Daon's [Heaven-rending Tsunami].
With that, he was only left with the option of fighting fire and fire, sending attack after attack towards the massive force Daon had conjured in the hopes that it would waste all of its momentum before it could hit him.
Unfortunately, even after exhausting all of his mana on a near-unceasing barrage of attacks, the tsunami still contained a third of its original force as it slammed directly into Valyr's body.
To no surprise, the young man was sent flying a fair distance, eventually landing on his back with a loud crash.
Though almost every part in his body radiated a great amount of pain in response to taking on the attack head-on, Valyr reminded himself that it was still better than dying to an attack like that.
"[Intermediate Fire Magic Style: Blazing Vigor]."
"[Refined Offense Aura]."
"[Limit Break: Second Verse]."
"[First Encore]."
"[Rage of the True Wyvern]."
Whoosh!
Within mere instants, the aura emanating from Valyr far exceeded what a normal warrior at the peak of Rank 3 could even unleash.
Watching the entire scene unfold before their very eyes, Dawan and Daon briefly glanced at each other as they felt that the young man now currently wielded a level of strength that broke through a certain boundary.
With that, the two empowered their barriers with a bit more of their mana, even going so far as to infuse the energy of their Intents into them.
Surprisingly, not even strengthening their defenses was enough to prepare them for what was about to come, with Valyr picking up the Supreme Blade of Primeval Flames.
"Huu..." Taking some time to compose himself, the young man's expression turned solemn as he tightly gripped the blade by its handle with both hands.
Coaxing his mana to head towards the weapon he held, his entire body soon turned into a blur of Shadow Energy, disappearing from the twins' sight.
"[Arcane Shadow Warp]."
Whoosh!
Before the two could even understand what was going on, Valyr had appeared in front of their vision in less than an instant, leaving them vulnerable for the attack that was to come.
