Inside the Black Swamp Palace
Countless of disciples and guardians had walked out of the palace and looked at the water mirror in the sky.
Lala held her arms tightly and shivered as she looked at the horrifying battle in the sky. All she prayed for was that Garen would survive in the battle.
Groups of disciples in the Black Swamp Palace was passionately observing this world class battle as it’s the battle that decided the fate of this world. As the Palace Master’s figure appeared in the screen, everyone’s spirit had engulfed the whole palace.
These disciples felt an immense proud as they’re different from the others. They grouped themselves into two or three crowds and gathered at the balcony, entrance of the palace, residences, gardens, public, etc. In that instant, everyone was looking up at the water mirror in the sky.
Some prayed, some shouted loudly and some were in complete rage. All the disciples of the Black Swamp Palace were cheering at the final battle in different ways.
Ivycius and Demon Phoenix stood together with the elders.
None of them spoke. Excluding Ivycius and Demon Phoenix, everyone’s face turned pale as they’re oppressed by the immense strength displayed from within.
Some unconsciously brought themselves into the battle as they started to shiver and almost vomited blood as well.
In this level of battle, it’s best to not understand at all as those who were able to understand aura and yet unable to resist it were in the most trouble. They could feel the immense amount of strength and those strength were able to reach them mentally from afar.
The battle inside the monitor had far surpassed everyone’s imagination. It wasn’t a battle for a mere mortal but a legendary battle told in the folklore!
The black rain in the sky dropped harder.
The holy music that appeared once in a while had another voice mixed within it.
"Death! Death!!"
"Death is eternal!!"
It sounded like the whistle of the wind or the sound of the droplet.
The Ultimate Protection in the Kovitan Empire’s skies trembled as ripples appear one after the other as if there was a strong force hitting on it continuously.
**********
Jesicca held goth tightly as they looked at the battle in the sky.
Those four people had went insane as everytime they collided against each other, the earth shattered and the sky roared.
Goth held his fist so tight that his nails almost pierced through his skin. He could also feel Jessica looking at him as well.
An explosion could be heard and countless of hand columns were torn apart.
With the Hellgate as the epicenter, the trio was pushed down to the ground.
One of them were pushed towards the both of them.
It was Garen!
Goth could clearly see that Hellgate purposely sent Garen to his location.
Garen was hit by the giant dark red arm as he crashed onto the ground.
The ground trembled as countless of dirts floated up into the air.
He cough a few times, took out a silver bottle from his body and immediately drank it.
His injury was beyond serious but a sense of excitement kept flowing out from him.
Garen panted as he started to smile.
He could feel that the Seed of Strength inside his body raised every time he fought. Fighting against Hellgate was like walking on a very thin thread where he would die if he were careless.
At this moment, the hand in the Monolith City finally broke down.
Boom!
One hand broke apart and fall onto the ground.
Then the next one followed along.
The second piece, third piece.. The tenth piece…
More and more hand broke apart and they weren’t able to resist the strength from the Door to Heaven.
Even if it were to strength of the Eternal Night Palace and Hellgate, it was their limit to be able to hold onto it for this long.
It was forbidden to obtain a strength that was able to pull out the Door to Heaven and now this amount of strength wasn’t able to hold on any longer.
"Heh… Hehe…" Garen couldn't stop laughing.
He wasn’t sure how the other two were doing but he almost succeeded.
"No!!" Hellgate covered the injury in his waist and the sea of blood behind him rose once more, pushing him to the Door to Heaven.
"Die!!"
Divine God Palace Master stroke out a green light and stabbed the back of Hellgate.
The Cthulhu King had exhausted all of his strength and the magic mirror on his hand had no light coming out from it. His entire condition was dire and weak as he laid inside the crater, unable to move and all he could do was to look at the final battle in the sky.
Garen got up and the black halberd in his hand transformed into a wheel of black crescent. The Living Secret Technique had almost reached its edge as he kept battling.
As he’s near the edge of surpassing Hellgate, Garen’s intelligent attribute started to spin and countless of inspiration kept entering into his brain.
Thousands of potential points that he had accumulated inside the ancient ruins started to drop at an incredible rate as if the rise of the Living Secret Technique required countless of potential points.
Garen sort of understood that Potential points can be used to replace the time to learn the Secret Technique and the strengths that he needed can be obtained by Potential points. If he were to really encounter a threshold where there were no tiers, the potential points would be useless.
In that instant, the convergence energy within him started tot shrink as the Ice Secret Technique and Metal Secret Technique kept fusing with each other, forming a small seed at great speed.
The speed were then planted deep into his soul and he could feel that his soul was flying. It felt comfortable and was free from everything.
"This is it… This is it… Hahahaha!!!" Garen started laughing and the whole sky was filled with his laughter.
Jessica and Goth stood behind Garen, who noticed their presence and ensure that his aura didn’t hurt them.
Goth’s expression was strange as he looked at Garen’s back, as if he wanted to say something. Jessica had left everything behind as he didn’t want to lose her best friend because of the tragedy in the past.
"Becareful Garen!! Goth wants to kill you!!" Jessica suddenly shouted as she shielded Garen with her body while facing Goth.
Garen was stunned and his mind went blank.
Garen who was currently at the most crucial part of promotion felt it and was about to turn around.
Stab!
A black dagger-liked being was stabbed into Garen’s back by Jessica. The dagger instantly twisted like a snake and drilled into Garen’s waist.
Goth’s mind went blank as his pupil reflected Jessica’s twisted smile.
Garen was stunned as well as he pressed onto his waist with one of his hand.
Boom!!
A hole was blasted in his waist and fresh blood and flesh flew everywhere. A hole appeared in his abdomen and a snake flew out as it went towards Hellgate. However, Garen caught it with one of his hand and snapped it into two pieces.
Garen walked a few steps to the front as he stared at his abdomen.
He was interrupted at the most crucial moment during his promotion. In that instant, the seed of the Living Secret Technique became unstable and the original bloodline was obstructed and the damage was severe.
Ugh….. Agh..!!!
He raised his head up and roared.
With him at the epicenter, a shockwave was blasted out.
Jessica was the first one to be sent flying off. Together with Goth, both of them were sent flying off as if they were hit by something big.
Goth’s vision turned blur as he tried to gain control of the situation and tried to reach out his hand and grab Jessica but she was falling from the sky slowly.
He could hear Garen’s agony as he was enraged and couldn’t believe of the betrayal!
"Hehehe. Die!! Die die die!! All of you should die!! Hahaha!!" Jessica started to laugh madly in the sky as her face was filled with hopelessness and bitterness and yet she didn’t realize her face was filled with tears.
Boom!
Jessica’s body was slammed onto a stone pillar and her head was pierced by a sharp stone and she instantly stopped breathing.
Thud!
Goth finally kneeled down and cried as he covered his face with his hands.
The sky was then lightened by a circle of green ring.
The whole sky was instantly brightened up.
The Divine God Palace Master’s chest was deformed by the attack and fall into the sea of blood.
Hellgate panted as he moved his attention onto Garen.
No one knew when, but Garen stopped shouting.
He was calm and standing still.
The bloody hole in his abdomen was about the size of a fist and one could clearly see the black ground behind him. However the whole was being filled by countless of red ice crystal.
The attribute pane underneath his vision was reacting crazily.
In the skill pane, The Black Water True Technique was something like of an unnamed Living Secret Technique. As the Living Secret Technique was learnt, even if it’s not fully learnt, countless of messages appeared.
The messages were frozen by a blue fluid as it kept gathering on the skill pane, forming a deep blue whirlpool.
A clear name appeared inside Garen’s mind.
It was a name automatically derived after merging with the Living Secret Technique.
He opened his lips.
The icy blue whirlpool stopped rotating as it formed into a complicated and strong symbol.
A blue icy crystal halberd appeared behind him, aiming at Hellgate.
Hah!
Garen’s eye was filled with icy blue fire that completely covered his pupil and he could only see two icy blue smoke.
Northern… Trident Frost-Fire True Water technique!!
Garen muttered softly.
The name of the Living Secret Technique carried a mysterious magic power. As he softly muttered it, a giant dark blue whirlpool appeared behind Garen.
It was a huge whirlpool constructed with countless of blue crystal halberds.
The halberds were mixed together into the whirlpool like an exquisite gear as it moved slowly.
Garen looked up and stared at Hellgate.
Go!!!
In that instant, a deafening chirp soared into the sky.
Countless of icy blue halberd soared into the sky from Garen’s back and the deafening chirp was created by the countless of sonic boom as the halberd moved forward.
"This is my dream… my only dream!!" Hellgate muttered as his expression became firm and his gaze, crazy.
He raised up both of his hands.
Countless of icy blue halberd rushed towards him and within the stream of halbert, Garen’s figure appeared and with a halberd in his hand, he stabbed forward.
"Towld!!!"
Hellgate started laughing as he opened his hand, as if he was welcoming something.
Thud!!!
The sea of blood in the middle of the sky exploded and all of the dark red hands broke apart and assimilated into the sea of blood.
The sky was completely dyed in red.
As they were covered in fresh blood, Hellgate looked at Garen, the person who had just entered form six and destroyed what he had built.
This was the peak of the world and no one could see them through the sea of blood.
"Can you accept one of my request?" Hellgate smiled gently as his body was pierced through by Garen’s halbert. His body was slowly disintegrating into pool of fresh blood starting from his legs.
Garen kept quiet for a moment.
"Say it out."
Hellgate smiled happily.
"Please go into the Door to Heaven in my stead. I want to know what’s inside, what’s inside…"
Garen was stunned.
"That’s my only dream…"
Hellgate smiled as his body disintegrated while one of the red light flew in front of Garen.
It was a pure Secret Technique memory and it was a gift left behind by his opponent.
The word dream kept reverberating in his ears as Garen looked at the gift given by Hellgate.
