Ice shrouded his blade and crept up his right arm but largely his Skill protected him from WivanyaÆs defense Shaking his arm to dislodge the remain frost he rushed forward

But Absolute Frost had slowed the duo AlanaÆs eyes narrowed Solar Flare Sun Strike Sun Strike Sun Strike

With brute force Alana tore through KayleÆs barrier and surged toward the battle The walls of flame trailing in her wake were almost two meters tall Wivanya whipped her bulk around bringing her claw slashing toward Paolo He ducked to the side and then hopped over her follow up tail whip She had used the same pattern one too many times to catch him with it right now

While in the air he raised both hands above his head and grinned like a maniac as he flew forward Although she twisted Wivanya couldnÆt avoid Paolo bringing his hands down powerfully on her side Several scales in the area were shattered by the force of the blow The dragon hissed in pain

Meanwhile Kayle was forced to plant his foot and turn around as the shimmering waves of heat caught up with him You wonÆt make it in time Alana Vast Divide

This time he used both knives when he slashed creating a barrier that was so thick that it was visible to the naked eye Alana laughed lightly as she raised her spear The Fourth Revelation Divinity

Alana was the edge of the horizon and dawn had suddenly arrived The pure light tore through everything in its path and seared into KayleÆs body before he could respond Even the flames in the surroundings were extinguished suffocated by that pure white light that she released

For a second she was the type of existence that truly held power over all others

Chapter 1470

Randidly folded his arms as he watched Alana unleash a Skill that may or may not be based on her reverence toward him As Kayle was rapidly moving back to avoid that light his long knives crisscrossed in front of him throwing up several smaller barriers in order to lessen the effect of AlanaÆs attack But the intensity of the image that Alana unleashed along with the Skill steadily eviscerated everything in the surrounding area Even Randidly felt impressed through his sense of awkwardness it certainly lived up to the moniker of DivinityÆ

But he could already tell that particular Skill had a steep usage cost After the first pulse of that all consuming light the illumination swiftly receded leaving a determined looking Alana glaring down at Kayle The flames behind her had shrunk to be about a handspan

Despite being hit rather directly with the Skill Kayle managed to leap back up to his feet almost immediately But his left arm was trembling as he took a fighting stance in front of Alana Most of his exposed flesh was covered with rapidly reddening burns Meanwhile Paolo was grinning from ear to ear as he considered his partner ThatÆs exactly right That is the sort of fight that this should be

Paolo raised his hands and the sluggish cheers from the crowd began to warp around his limbs Streams of partial images swirled through the air spinning and flowing into his body as he intensified his image of triumph Those partial images looked like wisps of silk sleek and light enough to be blown away by a strong breeze

Sensing the meaning to what he was doing Wivanya swept her claws at Paolo But this time he didnÆt even bother to dodge He stepped into the blow with lowered hands and let his heels grind into the marble as Wivanya smashed him sideways

Wivanya is reliable but her image conflicts too directly with AlanaÆs Randidly thought to himself Their combination isnÆt ideal

PaoloÆs face twitched but he stayed on his feet Although the claws shredded the flesh of his shoulder he was somehow able to endure WivanyaÆs attack Seeing him survive the noise from the crowd exploded upward More and more wispy images flowed to Paolo Even Randidly had to wonder about the physics of the move and narrowed his eyes to examine PaoloÆs image But Wivanya responded with a roar and unleashed a blast of concentrated frost from her mouth

A pillar of light exploded from Paolo the cheers and approval of the crowd becoming tinder to the flame burning in his heart It wasnÆt the exact same sort of inviolable light that Alana released but it at least shared the trait of being bright which seemed to further excited the audience They raised their voices and shook their limbs caught in the frenzy of the conflict

Alana glanced sideways at PaoloÆs ascendant image then returned her gaze to the panting form of Kayle in front of her If he continues to accept all those foreign influences to his image he is in for a rude awakening

He can handle it Kayle exposed a small smile and then both foes blurred into motion Although she clearly didnÆt have as much punch to her image any longer Alana Donal was still the human on Earth who had done the most combat training over the last several years Her step thrust and then follow up sweep with her spear were blisteringly fast

At his best he could hold his own but he was no longer in peak condition Kayle deflected the thrust but could only be smashed backward as Alana targeted his wounded arm Her spear cut deeply into the wrist of his bad arm But as Kayle was thrown backward he twisted mid air and once more manifested his stark image above his head The line seemed so slender but it cleanly divided infinity The Sword of Triumph

Alana tensed but she wasnÆt the target of the Skill Instead it appeared that Kayle cast several lightning fast barriers around Paolo Randidly chewed on his lip but then understanding gradually bloomed in RandidlyÆs eyes as Paolo rapidly exploded with the potency of the images that he had been absorbing Streams continued to flow into him from the crowd but now nothing could flow out any longer His body bounded by KayleÆs Absolute Divides was the vessel to the rapidly increasing pressure of those images While he stood there and seemed to rush rapidly towards some sort of detonation WivanyaÆs claws scratched helplessly at the barriers Kayle created

Randidly felt a small smile taking hold on his face The result isnÆt as integrated as Dinesh and TykesÆ combination Skill but I can already tell that this effect will be much more exaggerated

For a split second Alana frowned But ultimately she ignored the trembling Kayle and pounced over toward Paolo Wivanya switch

Keh You are lucky human Wivanya glared at the exultant Paolo and then bounded across toward Kayle Seeing the dragonÆs approach Kayle gritted his teeth and recovered his footing Just like Alana it seemed that the Skill he used cost him quite a bit of his Willpower He also had to replace another one of his long knives that had been shattered by Alana but he settled into a defensive stance and waited for Wivanya to approach

Once more light gathered around Alana while she moved forward but this light seemed to make the details of the surrounding space clearer rather than obscuring her person Her image had shifted once she had exhausted her image of divinity The color contrast of her person shot upward making the flames around her vividly orange and her wings almost blindingly white

The flavor of her image shifted slightly again as she raised her spear She was no longer a pure valkyrie but a prophet When her mouth opened something sanctified and almost solid flowed out she spoke the word of a God Spear Thrusts so Plentiful They Sound like Rain

And Randidly could hear it in the moments that followed the sizzling impact of hundreds of spear attacks that Alana threw outward each with a deceptive amount of force behind the attacks These were strikes that would have laid out any of the contestants below the top 8 But it appeared that Kayle had taken great care in the construction of these barriers because they cracked but didnÆt quite shatter AlanaÆs eyes sharpened

She withdrew slightly the intensity of her image rising further once more Waves of heat began to rise from her pearly wings as though the feathers were eternal tongues of flame Her eyes were determined as she considered the figure of Paolo The Fourth Revelation Divinity
