Chapter 825 Storm of Blades: Triumph Over Corruption



Chapter 825 Storm of Blades: Triumph Over Corruption

Lightning flickered around Reign who pushed the monster away. He had been defending himself and making sure the monster wouldn't be allowed to freely attack the others all this time, which was a strenuous thing to do.

Even with his presence and with him doing his very best to stop the monster, the powerful monster was still able to occasionally attack the others, most notably, Tord's fox and Beast's insect monster.

Right after Reign pushed the monster back, it roared in anger and pain as the two monsters jumped on it. Tord's fox clamped down on one of its legs while the insectoid managed to pierce through the tough skin of the monster's chest.

This was the opportunity Reign wanted as he now had enough time to attack.

His lightning condensed, and it slowly started changing its color. Around his right sword, white lightning danced while the lightning covering his left sword was black. Hues of purple could barely be seen as Reign used his soul manipulation as well, sacrificing tens of powerful souls to reinforce the attack so that it would also damage the monster's soul.

He had previously attempted to attack the soul, only to suffer from his attempt. The soul of the monster was unlike anything he had felt before. It was pure chaos, and his attacks were simply devoured, which made him stop.

This time, however, thanks to the fact the monster was becoming more and more feral, he hoped he could at least damage the soul a little bit.

His two swords vibrated strongly and even his arms started shaking. Still, on Reign's face, one could see slight excitement.

"Now let's see just how powerful this is."

[ Severing, Twin Vipers ]

Reign pulled his arms back before stabbing forward with immense power, his body actually disappearing from a moment and appearing a meter in front, the sound barrier braking as two coiling beams of lightning infused with light and darkness lunged forward.

The monster had noticed the attack before it was even launched. Its instincts flared up, making it obvious that Reign's attack, which was the mastered, and even slightly improved version of the fourth sword of the Severing Series, was launched at it.

The twin vipers, as they were aptly named, appeared in front of the monster in an instant.

The dead bodies of the fox and the insect were lying beneath the monster's feet as it had killed them by using its full power upon sensing danger.

The monster's wings, which served little purpose, quickly coiled around it as it crossed its hands in front of its body. Corruption from the surrounding area, which was already getting sparse, quickly arrived in front of the arms, creating a shield of sorts.

The shield broke pretty easily as the twin vipers pierced through before slamming against the arms of the powerful monster.

The monster stood its ground, its body being pushed back as a deep trail was left by its feet that were planted deep into the ground.

Reign, with beads of sweat on his forehead, continued to pour all his remaining energy into the attack. The twin vipers continued to pierce through the monster's arms, crackling with an intense energy that seemed to sear through the corrupted flesh.

Bit by bit, the arms were penetrated through, albeit it was slow.

The Tier VI monster, despite its formidable defenses, couldn't fully withstand the onslaught. The corruption that it was now using to reinforce its arms and defend was no longer that useful, unable to contend with the sheer power of Reign's attack.

The rest of the team, witnessing the climax of the battle, held their breaths. They were all channeling their mana, ready to strike with their most powerful attacks after Reign's attack was over. The air crackled with energy as the twin vipers continued their relentless assault. The monster, its insectoid head thrashing in pain, struggled to maintain its stance.

Reign, feeling the strain on his body, gritted his teeth. His Nephilim form was reaching its limits, and he knew that once it faded, he would be vulnerable. The countdown to the end of his transformation echoed in his mind.

The monster, sensing its impending defeat, unleashed a final burst of corrupted energy. It surged outward, attempting to repel the twin vipers and regain control of the battle. The corrupted energy twisted and writhed, creating an otherworldly spectacle.

However, Reign, with a surge of determination, pushed the twin vipers forward. The beams of light and darkness intensified, piercing through the monster's last line of defense. The corrupted energy shattered, the arms were blasted away, and the vipers struck the body of the monster, causing an immense explosion brought forth by the impact, as well as the mix of corruption and mana.

Reign landed on the ground, his Nephilim form undone.

The others didn't waste a single moment before launching their attacks as well.

The area around the monster became a wasteland as a multitude of attacks landed on the monster's body which was nearly invisible thanks to the explosion that occurred before.

The Tier VI monster, battered and reeling from the combined assault, let out a final, desperate roar. The corrupted energy that once fueled its malevolent strength dissipated into the air, leaving the creature vulnerable. The onslaught of attacks from the Tier V combatants intensified, each strike aimed at delivering the finishing blow.

Fluffy and Blackie, their forms crackling with energy, unleashed a synchronized assault. Fluffy's bladed horns slashed through the air, creating rifts in space that cut the flesh of the monster, while Blackie summoned bolts of lightning that danced across the monster's body. The creature, its defenses shattered, could no longer withstand the relentless assault.

Elijah, seizing the opportunity, hurled a barrage of poisoned spears at the monster's weakened limbs. Each spear found its mark, injecting lethal toxins that further incapacitated the creature. Laura, tapping into her demonic powers, conjured dark flames that engulfed the Tier VI monster, burning away the corruption that clung to its monstrous form.

Tank's generals, undeterred by the ferocity of the battle, continued to unleash their attacks, with Tank not holding back either as he let go of his shield and held his axe with both hands, slashing down and causing deep crevices to appear in front of him as his slashes struck the monster.. Beast, with a commanding presence, directed the efforts of his summoned creatures. Tord, having recovered from his earlier exertions, conjured dark energy that swirled around the battlefield, amplifying the power of each strike.

Wolf's flames soared high up the air as he created a giant sword that was 35 meters long before slashing down with it, causing the body of the monster to slightly melt as a portion was cut off. Mia's frost turned into hundreds of swords that rained down on the monster, each managing to stab in the body and freeze a part.

Alijah's star energy was on full display as he held his spear that was shining a golden light before throwing it with full force, the spear struck the monster before the power of stars exploded, blowing away everything that was 100 meters around the monster.

As the combined might of the Tier V combatants bore down on the Tier VI monster, the once imposing creature now staggered, its insectoid head drooping and its bovine legs trembling. The corrupted jungle, once a domain under its control, now rejected the monster's presence, vines recoiling and trees standing tall once more.

Reign, despite the exhaustion from his Nephilim transformation, joined the final assault. His dual swords, though no longer infused with the overwhelming power of his previous form, still carried deadly precision. With a swift and calculated strike, he aimed for the monster's heart—the core of its corruption.

The monster, unable to defend itself against the relentless onslaught, succumbed to the combined efforts of the Tier V combatants. Its monstrous form convulsed, a final wail echoing through the purified jungle. The corrupted energy that had plagued the area dissipated entirely, leaving behind a sense of triumph.

Reign and the others nearly collapsed from the lack of mana before staggering to each other and laughing. They had managed to do it, they defeated a Tier VI monster.

Still, they knew the time to rest was still not now. They were still in the jungle, and the chaos they had caused would surely draw in monsters, some of them might be closing in on them already.

They all started moving, making their way back to Mia's base where their teleporter was. Of course, thanks to their overexerting, none could run fast, which was when Beast summoned his tamed monsters and had everyone ride on them, allowing them to rest and stay alert.

As Reign and the others moved back, about 1.5 miles away from the place they had fought, a figure was standing atop a tall tree, staring at the corrupted area with a heavy expression. His eyes were furrowed and sweat could be seen covering him as he was shocked at what he saw.

He had to go back and report his findings, and he had to do it right away.
