Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 503 Lightning



Hiss~

Vincent sucked in a cold breath of air as he was also stunned by the result of this technique.

This is his first time trying this ability since it consumes a lot of durability points. There was no way he would use it for practice.

When he activated the ability, he only heard the tearing of space before seeing the dagger stabbed at Colm's chest.

'So that was Haunting Hymn…'

The name truly suits the ability as the sound was truly haunting…

"Ugh!"

Colm spat a mouthful of blood as the injury he received can't be easily healed by normal methods. The Astral Night dagger has other attributes after all… It has 100 Critical Points and 200 Pierce Points!

With this combination, Colm's internal organs weren't able to stay intact… Even if he cultivated his organs to an incredible degree, the weapon that pierced him was still a Legendary Grade item. No matter how tough he was, he still has limits!

Furthermore, Vincent kept using his Mana Drain weakening the Paragon even more.

Return…

Vincent activated the dagger's other skill and brought the dagger to his hands…

They can no longer be surprised that he even has this ability.

"You've gone too far!" Ariana was furious seeing Colm's condition. She no longer cared about the dragon that was massacring the Martial Artists behind her.

"I will kill you!"

With these words, Ariana seems to have triggered her hidden abilities as her whole body was surrounded by lightning sparks… Her eyes turned white and her hair turned silver…

It was as if she was going through an evolution…

Vincent frowned at this as he realized that his Mana Drain was no longer working against her… It seems that lightning attributes can cancel a lot of Mana Arts. Although he knows that lightning ability is quite difficult to deal with, he didn't expect that it would be such a menace.

'No wonder the Mana Calamity has a form of lightning…' Vincent mused as he saw Ariana charging at him…

Bang!

Her fist met the floating source cube that had transformed into some sort of shield. It created a powerful shockwave that was felt by the people watching the battle.

Nevertheless, it didn't disrupt Ariana's momentum as she continuously uses her lightning strikes to pin Vincent to the point that even Awakened Source Cube was unable to follow her movement.

Vincent was hit once on his shoulder and his ring protected him this time…

Crack!

This ring can protect him against external force but Ariana's power is just too much… Just a single punch was enough to destroy the ring that can block several attacks from a Grand Magus' elemental Mana Art!

It means that each punch coming from her is equivalent to five Elemental Mana Arts of a Grand Magus!

'That's enough experimentation… I might die at this rate…' Vincent concluded that this Paragon is truly strong.

He believes that even a Celestial Being would have a hard time fighting against her.

Vincent then used his Shrouded Steps to get away from Ariana… Then, with the same method a while ago, Vincent stealthily used his Astral Night Dagger's Haunting Hymn…

[ Durability: 660/1000 ]

A total of 240 Durability were used in today's battle.

Nevertheless, Vincent wasn't unhappy at all…

Cling!

The dagger tore through the space and landed on Ariana's body…

"Aaaarrghh!"

Ariana cried out in pain but she didn't retreat…

"You'll pay for this!" She angrily shouted she didn't even bother at the dagger on her stomach as she charged ahead.

'What?' Vincent was flustered for a moment seeing that it didn't stop Ariana and he even made her burst with anger.

For some reason, the dagger actually failed to hit the target's heart! Vincent was sure that he had marked her heart just now.

'Tsk… Is that the lightning's doing again?! So annoying…' Vincent grumbled as he had no choice but to do it again…

'No… She's already injured… Using another 120 points of durability would be too much… Other weapons should still work against her.'

Although he wanted to end this battle as well… He believes that Ariana is already reaching her limits.

Bang!

Vincent was hit by Ariana's kick but although he was thrown away, one of his rings took almost 80% of the damage for him…

He wasn't injured at all after the passive healing of his belt was also activated.

He then brought out his Mythril Sword and used Fatal Mind…

Bzzt…

Unfortunately, even this mind technique was ineffective against someone who was covered by lightning!

It seems to be his nemesis!

Item Skills seem to be somewhat weak against the lightning attribute!

He can also guess that Soul Manifestation is weak against lightning so he didn't bother pulling out his Cane…

He then immediately reviewed all his weapons and found a few ones that may work against her.

One of the weapons he thought would work was the Orichalcum Sword.

Shiing~

The green sword appeared in his hands as he pointed it at her…

[ Aura-Forged Green Orichalcum Sword ]

[ Quality: Legendary

Number of Enhancements: 10/10

Durability: 1170/1310

Knockback: 350

Bonus Damage: 800

Description: A broadsword forged by a Master Blacksmith. It is made of Orichalcum and a Magic Beast's Core – Runic Badger.

[ Skills ]

[ Sword Charm: A skill capable of charming the target to offer their head to the broadsword. This skill can be activated depending on the amount of energy infused.

[ Sword Obelisk: In exchange for 160 Durability Points and 300 Mana Points, the sword will be able to cut anything that has below or equal to 1,310 Durability Points but will be ineffective against higher durability. ]

"Haaa!"

Vincent struck Ariana as quickly as he can… He didn't put too much strength on it, but as long as he forced Ariana to parry it instead of dodging, that would be enough.

The second skill of the Green Orichalcum Sword should work on her!

As expected, Ariana's momentum didn't allow her to maneuver and dodge his attack as she was forced to raise her arm guard to deflect his strike!

Vincent's eyes lit up after seeing this!

Sssaakk!

With a swift strike, Vincent critically injured the lightning woman!
