Chapter 793 You Almost Had Me
Ace quickly snapped out of his stupor, and a solemn expression appeared on his face because he just noticed the injury on his spine was also more than half-healed, and the sword cores were about 80% done. .
Then he looked at Page-09, which was continuing to chip away the heavenly thunder from the four Heaven’s Terminate Manifestations while they were madly attacking him.
But the problem was, his Qi was ruing out as the Apparition Wind Walk was taking too much heavenly Soul Qi, and it was mostly because of the heavenly intent.
Maximum, he could last about ten more seconds before he would run out of Qi, and then he would be in the center of the four Heaven’s Terminate Manifestations onslaught.
‘Damn it. I guess I can’t just stand there and do nothing for once. I also have to absorb more heavenly thunder to complete those runes. Since Page-09 seemed to absorb this heavenly thunder directly from these four, and their figures were slowly shrinking down, then did this mean it was the only way to kill them?
‘Or at least one of the ways, then what if I cut them into more pieces? It only split into four despite me cutting it into a hundred pieces, and they were all holding the same weapons the single one was holding all together. So, there is no way it was all a coincidence…’
Ace’s mind raced as he finally decided, and a sharp, ruthless glint flashed past his eyes. He was still feeling pain in his back, and he knew just how close a shave he had with death just a few moments ago.
The Heaven’s Terminate Manifestation had caught him completely off guard and almost took his life. But now, he won’t make the same mistake again.
Sword intent suddenly sheens around his other hand’s fingers, and with the little bit of the martial Qi he has recovered, he performs another powerful attack.
‘Eternal Thief Style; Martial Sword Despair Plexus Fingers!’
His fingers suddenly seemed to have turned into dark blades as an aura of despair released from him, and not only that, but now there was a clear aura of heavenly thunder mixed in his sword intent.
His sword-like fingers suddenly moved in a blur, and with terrifying accuracy, Ace’s finger stabbed into Heaven’s Terminate Manifestations vitals, leaving behind small dark dots all over their bodies!
This was a close-quarter combat sword move that was driven from the life plexuses, and it was as deadly as it could get if he were able to hit all the major plexus in the body!
The Heaven’s Terminate Manifestations were mindless, so they had no concept of dodging, and they all took his Ace like nothing and only paid attention to attacking him.
However, it was a mistake because suddenly those dark dots all over them bodes suddenly shimmered darkly before a powerful, sharp aura rose, and the next moment, they started to connect with each other like some diagram.
Before they could even begin to comprehend what had happened, all the dots were connected with each other, and the next moment, those Heaven’s Terminate Manifestations started to spit into pieces!
Ace’s figure again materialized and became corporeal, and he was extremely pale, but he knew he didn’t have time to rest. Because those small pieces of the Heaven’s Terminate Manifestations turned into heavenly thunder and seemed to want to reform a Heaven’s Terminate Manifestation figure again.
‘No, you don’t!’ Ace would be a fool to let something like this happen. He was not in a state to release another attack like the plexus fingers.
So, he did something crazy. He used Page-09 like a catching net and started to wave it around on the scatter of heavenly thunder, and not only that, he even used his body to capture it.
Although it was extremely painful, the sword cores again started to change, and Page-09 was even quicker as it absorbed all the heavenly thunder thrown at it like an abyss.
It was to the point that Ace panicked that there might not be enough heavenly thunder for his own sword cores. But his intuition never came to pass as the heavenly thunder Heaven’s Terminate Manifestations were made of seemed to be far more potent than the first wave of the heavenly thunder, and his sword cores quickly reached completion.
After those mysterious runes on them turned fully red and blue, respectively, the sword core suddenly trembled a bit before they released a massive amount of ethereal red and blue mist in his martial and soul spaces.
Thereby, Ace felt all his exhaustion and injuries he sustained start to vanish, and what was left was pure bliss, and his aura started to change and turn like a true heavenly punishment.
Furthermore, now that he was touched by the heavenly thunder again, it no longer hurt him. Instead, it bounced off his skin which was completely unexpected.
Now the only one left who was absorbing the heavenly thunder was Page-09, while Ace was utterly shocked.
“Rubleeeeee…”
Powerful rumbling rang from above when Heaven’s Terminate Manifestations were fully absorbed by Ace and Page-09. But there were no longer any signs of more heavenly thunder being condensing.
This simply means the heavenly punishment was coming to an end, and for the first time, Ace was completely fine and even gained so much without even breaking through into the new realm.
After making sure that no more heavenly thunder remained, Ace looked up and saw the heavenly punishment clouds were rumbling in rage, but like always, they could no longer do anything else as the time of their departure had finally come.
His lips rose in a cold smile filled with cruelty, “You almost had me this time, huh?”
Ace’s mocking voice seems to be directly heard by the heaven itself as an even more terrifying rumble rang before the inky clouds started to disperse and the pressure of the heavenly punishment also started to vanish.
The fourth heavenly punishment was finally over!
