Chapter 411: Erix vs Maze, The Breakdown (3)
*Boom!*
*Smash!*
*Shakalaka*
Kenshin and Barak continued their battle, with Barak having a one-sided battle and Kenshin on its receiving end.
But as each second passed in the battle, Kenshin's fighting power increased. All the Martial moves and everything he has learned was evolving at a higher rate through the magic, elements, and concepts as he fought while discovering his own potential and unlocking it.
Five minutes into the battle Kenshin's aura transformed entirely and his breakthrough occurred, pushing his Tempest concept to 4th realm!
The battle's flow and theme entirely changed and became increasingly violent! Kenshin's makeshift skill techniques became a notch stronger in power and a notch more sophisticated than before!
"Powerful," Lily muttered.
Rin, Erix, and Lilith couldn't help but nod.
Kenshin was becoming increasingly powerful in his current battle-maniac state where he had entirely lost himself in this fight.
But because of that, they also realized the scariness of Barak.
'This guy's skills are strange. They are way higher level than our created skills,' Erix frowned. 'Kenshin is doing way over his best right now. So much that even we would have trouble defeating him.'
'But dad is getting a one-sided beating still,' Rin clenched her fists.
'Barak hasn't removed his self-seal. He is still using the same amount of power as Kenshin in Physical, Magic, and even mastery of his elements and concepts,' Lilith wryly smiled.
'Kenshin's soul and spirit are getting stronger as well,' Lily noted.
Indeed, in this battle where Kenshin was overboard his limits, where his mind, body, and entire focus was on striking Barak and winning a single bout of exchange, Kenshin's Spirit and Soul were getting a grind.
But five more minutes passed and Kenshin started slowing down, his vitality was waning.
"So what's what he amounts to in the end?" Maze said with a laugh.
Rin and Erix ground their teeth at that remark.
'That bastard is being cocky from the start.'
'I'll go next and challenge him,' Erix said with a snort.
Meanwhile, Kenshin continued fighting with the same ferocity outside, but when he captured Barak's expression as got smacked once again, a hint of despair appeared in his eyes.
'N-No….I can't even win a single exchange at the same stats?' Kenshin's heart felt like it turned ice-cold with biting pain bursting out.
"You did well, Kenshin," Barak nodded as he floated with his arms crossed. "You have potential, but unfortunately you can't join us in our endeavors."
Kenshin's vitality was on the verge of snuffing out and he could only see Barak while lying on his back, unable to move even his finger not blink his eyes.
A second later, the lights in his eyes vanished and he died.
Erix's eyes flashed as he started working.
His body broke down into motes, absorbed by Blessed Island while his soul went under the Dreanox Tree.
Since Blessed Island was a closed system, people who died inside wouldn't get their souls directly sent to the cosmic cycle. Instead, it would remain on the Blessed Island.
Sameira, Aria, Isabella, and Amu saw Kenshin's soul.
"It's injured badly," Amu frowned. "He exerted himself way past his limits."
"Mhm. We could see he was getting stronger on the screen, but this…" Aria wryly smiled. "Let's heal it quick, Amu."
Aria and Amu immediately started healing Kenshin's soul.
"He did his best," Sameira said with a clenched fist. "The enemy is just more advanced, knowledgeable, and skillful in this world of power."
"Those skills he was using were getting powerful and transforming every time. He got so strong while fighting," Isabella said, amazed.
Suddenly, they saw Kenshin's body materializing nearby. With Blessed Island's energy and core, it wasn't hard to create an Empyrean-order body for Erix.
It cost Prana worth 2000 high-grade Prana crystals, but they were acquiring Prana every day due to the daily Prana Vein event. The slaves were exclusive of the kingdom, so whatever they earned in the events was stored in a private warehouse on the Blessed Island.
"Erix is fighting next," Isabella said as she looked at the screen and saw Erix flying up next.
…
"Who are you going to pick for your beating?" Maze asked with a grin.
"I don't mind if you choose me again," Barak said with a faint smile. "I am more than happy. I can also recover my energies with a little pill."
Erix shook his head and locked his gaze onto Maze. "You."
"Wonderful," Maze grinned and flew forward before stopping a hundred meters away from Erix.
"Here, take a look at my stats," Maze's eyes flashed before he showed a panel made of spirit energy displaying his stats.
However, those stats blurred and expanded in detail, causing Maze to raise his eyebrows before he laughed out loud. "Hahaha, the Mystic system of this planet just gave you more information. Well, whatever."

Seeing his stats, everyone's eyes flashed shock.
'I would have to use my trump card item to kill him and I might not even succeed,' Lilith frowned. 'If he is this strong, then Barak and that other woman must be equally strong.'
'What is that Weimbus? Why it says Unique?' Rin asked, confused and curious.
'I have heard about it,' Lilith said. 'Unique element is a combination of 3 elements, but one of the elements must break past the 10th realm. From what I know, when we break past the 10th realm in an element, we awaken a unique and personal expression of that element.'
'How will Erix do against him?' Lily asked, frowning. 'The difference in stats is not that big for him.'
"You done seeing? If so, then go all out and attack," Maze grinned. "I'll adjust my stats according to yours after measuring you."
Erix's expression was calm, almost indifferent. He took a deep breath and a second later, a powerful aura burst out of him as dark gold sharp waves that were see-through enveloped him.
'Regalon.'
*Scree!*
From Erix's aura, Talonar materialized below right above his throne on the majestic eagle's back.
"Interesting," Barak noted.
Kristy's eyes flashed. 'What is that?'
'No idea,' Maze grinned. 'But looks interesting.'
