The Mana began to swirl in the environment and many debris and rocks started to spin in the air, accompanying the circling Mana.

Seth saw a round dark green object in the middle of all that swirling boulders and objects, but very quickly it vanished from his field of vision, since everything started to gather around it, transforming in a huge solid shape.

Limbs made of solid rock, formed bit by bit in front of everyone. A huge golem was practically mounted right before their eyes. When the last boulder was inserted, a pulse of Mana passed through the whole hundred meters tall golem, making red lines appear on its surface.

Suddenly, the golem opened its eyes that were already pulsing with a red color. It looked down towards Seth and not even a second later, two laser beams shot in his direction, burning everything down to the place he was.

Boom!

A fire curtain enveloped the entire area, creating a massive area of hellish flames.

"Seth!

" Caizhi felt her heart clenching and tried to leave the barrier the Eleventh palace Master had created, but Rina stopped her.

"Don't! He will be alright... You have to trust him...

"

She was feeling anxious too, but deep inside, she was able to calm down and remember how he was able to withstand those flames and save her at that time in the forest.

The flames burned the ground, turning everything into dust particles, but suddenly a shadow left that area and passed through the legs of that huge golem.

Seth's weapon was already burning with flames that seemed to be of a greater quality than those the golem just release. He swinged the greatsword, drawing a long arc in the air and a huge flame slash crashed in the golem's left leg, destroying the armor superficially.

His skill could instantly burn a Mana Control initial-stage cultivator to cinders, but it was only able to open a small fissure in that golem's armor.

'I can't even destroy his armor... His defenses are out of ordinary. As expected of a Profound Mana beast.'

The red lines in the armor around the leg of the golem, glowed and they began to draw the Mana in the environment towards it, transforming it into rocks and repairing the damaged parts.

"Damn it!

"

Seth knew that he was doomed to fail while fighting against this beast, since his attacks were not strong enough to damage it to the point it could not recover.

He remembered that he saw that dark green core before and realized that it was the central nucleus that controlled the entire beast body, but he knew that he could never reach that part, since his Mana was not strong enough to penetrate the armor.

Rumble!

The golem raised its leg and stomped the ground where Seth was passing through. The entire area shook with the destructive force that attack contained. Right after the first stomp, it did a second and continued to strike.

Seth couldn't afford to hide his dark element any longer and started to use his Shadow Walk, evading those slow but powerful attacks. The people observing the fight was too far to notice his subtle use of dark element and even the Eleventh Palace Master wasn't in condition to notice it.

The beast was affected by the tyrannical strength of corruption and felt rage and hatred for not being able to hit the human and smash it to pieces. The red lines started to pulse with energy and pieces of the armor detached, falling right above where Seth was.

Seth evaded each boulder and rock that was crashing down and took some distance away from that area. He watched how a hundred meters tall golem turned into fifteen meters tall. More than eighty percent of its entire body was discarded, leaving it way smaller than before.

However...

The golem suddenly jumped into the air and fell right where Seth was standing. His speed was nothing like before, and after it discarded those useless parts, it turned into a ferocious killing machine.

An armored arm swiftly swiped anything on its way, moving towards Seth in an unconceivable speed.

Seth was forced to concentrate all the Mana he could at that moment, to resist that attack while holding his greatsword in a defensive stance.

Bang!

For a second, Seth was able to stop that attack, feeling the whole strength of the impact from the collision. But it was really difficult for him to resist it for longer than that.

Seth was sent flying for more than two hundred meters and crashed against a huge boulder on that area.

"Cough!

"

"Cough!

"

He coughed some blood and realized he couldn't even handle a normal strike from that beast.

While Seth was taking some time to recover from the hit he just took, his enemy suddenly turned towards the barrier where the girls from the Glazed Lake Sect were and two bright red lights started to accumulate inside his eyes.

Seth instantly realized what it was trying to do. He immediately stood up and used the second stance of his Shadow Walk, appearing right before it. Crimson flames ignited around his whole body, making his strength reach another level.

At the same time, the golem shot two laser beams towards his primary targets, but Seth intercepted it waving his greatsword will his full force.

BOOM!

A loud blast occurred and a red light enveloped the whole battlefield. Flames threatened to burn everything down to cinders and the weaker elves couldn't even look towards that bright light that suddenly clouded their vision.

The golem stumbled backwards and fell heavily on the ground. There was a huge burned hole in the middle of its chest armor, exposing a tiny portion of that dark green core. Some of his limbs were deeply damaged too. Seth's Corrupted Crimson Flames were enough to create a huge destruction on that beast body and make it fall backwards.

One must remember that he was a Mana Control middle-stage Realm cultivator and was fighting against a Profound Mana initial-stage Realm beast. It was considered to be an impossible fight for Seth. He was doomed to fail since the beginning, but he couldn't afford to escape now.

Seth was sent flying far away because of that collision. His body once again shot through the air falling five hundred meters away this time. His clothes were burned, revealing his chest area that had many impact wounds, but none of them were caused by the fire and flames released by that fierce conflict.

"Seth!

"

This time Caizhi left the barrier in a hurry, running towards Seth. Rina didn't stop her, in reality, she went together with Caizhi, since her heart was somehow pounding really hard. There was a clenching sensation inside her chest and she was unwilling to lose a friend like this.

The Eleventh Palace Master stood up to stop them from doing idiot things, but her Mana went berserk and she coughed blood once again. She wasn't in condition to do any brusque movements and could only sit on the floor and recharge her Mana, improving her condition slowly.

"Seth!

" Caizhi arrived before Seth and started to transfer her Qi inside his body, trying to ease some of his pain. Tears started to form in her eyes once she realized that his chest area and arms were bleeding from withstanding that last strike.

"Don't worry with me. Go back inside the barrier.

" Seth grabbed Caizhi's hand and tried to stand from the ground. He wanted to comfort Caizhi and assure her that everything was alright. But even though his body was stronger than normal, that last attack was really able to hurt him.

Rina arrived some seconds after her and a verdant vivid light started to shine in her hands. She immediately crouched down and put her hands on Seth's chest.

His pale complexion changed instantly and the wounds he had were healing very quickly.

"Wha...

" Caizhi looked at that green light flabbergasted. She has heard of those high tier healing pills that could heal an individual in just some hours, but she has never heard of a skill or technique that could heal a person almost instantly.

Rina's mother, the Elf Queen, had strictly told her to never reveal that she had the Evergreen Essence as well, however, she just ignored that and healed Seth with it. Rina has been blessed by the World Tree Replica too, but her blessing was totally different from the Elf Queen.

Her Evergreen Essence developed the ability to heal and grow plants at an incomprehensible speed.

Seth looked at Rina with surprise. If he didn't see Rina using her Evergreen Essence before, he would certainly think it wasn't actually the real Evergreen Essence, since everyone pretty much told him that it was only meant for poisoning. Inside his head, he was already starting to think that it was pretty much a fabricated story that the Elf Queen devised as a protective measure.

He stood up after she finished using her skills and said:

"Thanks, Rina.

"

Just as he stood up, he heard a sound from the direction the golem was.
