Chapter 745 - Not Dead
If Rean and Roan went all out and worked together, they could put up a fight against a Middle Stage Soul Transformation Realm Zasfin. However, it wasn't just Rean and Roan here. There was also Kentucky! With the three of them together, plus the fact that the Zasfin was completely underestimating them, that brought about their enemy's demise!
In the end, the only thing that came out of that explosion was a broken spear. As for Gater's body, it would be quite hard to find any remains. Of course, Kentucky and the twins didn't leave that situation without any injuries. This was the first time they used it in real combat, and it had to be released at a close distance. With that being said, they were blasted into the Thunder-Fire Punishment Spears.
Yes, what caused the damage wasn't Sun and Moon Obliteration, but the first attack used by Gater, who was already dead.
*Bang, bang, bang!*
All three of them slammed on the ground as several holes could be seen on their bodies. Of course, Rean and Roan weren't idiots. They made sure to protect their heads with the Black and White Stars. In any case, they were still alive even though they were quite severely injured. In Kentucky's case, his whole body was like a piece of armor, so although there were many holes as well, they weren't anything capable of threatening his life.
Gia and Jare watched the whole scene and had both their mouths agape. Contrary to all their expectations, Rean's group had killed a Soul Transformation Realm Zasfin while being over an entire realm behind.
However, Gia and Jare saw how the twins' bodies had fared. 'They won, but they won't survive,' thought the two at the same time. That was the only consolation for Jare. As for Gia, her priority was Kentucky, so she wouldn't enter the battlefield to save the twins either. Kentucky wasn't at risk of dying, so she stayed put.
Nonetheless, Gia couldn't help but think, 'In any case, this is such a huge waste. These humans could definitely help a lot more during this war.' Gia then looked at Kentucky as she continued to think, 'Well, their deaths should be beneficial since it would make the Minokawa wish for revenge.'
However, it was then that Gia saw something strange. Kentucky got close to the twins and started laughing, saying, "Hahaha! We really did it! We defeated a Middle Stage Soul Transformation Realm Zasfin!" Obviously, that reaction left Gia puzzled as she could not help but think, 'Can't you see their injuries? Is this the time to laugh?'
Roan's bloodied mouth twitched as he weakly answered, "Shut... up. Your voice is making the pain worse."
Rean then sat down with much difficulty while trying to ignore the pain of his injuries. He didn't have the strength to talk since his lungs had been pierced as well, unlike Roan, who only had one of his lungs in that condition. So, he could only ask Kentucky through a Spiritual Sense Message. 'Bring me closer to Roan.'
Kentucky nodded and used his Spiritual Energy to grab the twins' bodies and put them on his back. After that, he flapped his wings and made his way back to the demon beasts' side.
Jare snorted after seeing that scene as he thought, 'Hmph! Are you going to bury them? Then, be my guest.'
Gia also shook her head after seeing this, not expecting much from it. If anything, she preferred that Kentucky left the humans' bodies behind and focused on the battle.
However, just a few seconds after Kentucky took flight, a ridiculous scene appeared in Jare and Gia's Spiritual Senses. Rean's body burst with Light Element, covering him, Roan, and Kentucky completely. They looked more like a ball of white energy moving through the skies. Of course, it wasn't blocked by Gia or Jare's senses.
'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery!'
Right inside their Spiritual Senses, Jare and Gia saw the injuries of Rean's group healing at a frightening speed. Lungs, heart, limbs, all the horrible holes, especially on the twins' bodies, began to close up extremely fast. What were supposed to be injuries that would end their lives now seemed to be mere illusions after this. Around a minute later, their bodies were healed up back to normal as if nothing had happened in the first place.
Of course, Rean and Roan's robes were completely ragged. Not to mention that their faces were as pale as ghosts. One must remember that before that battle with the Soul Transformation Realm Zasfin, the twins' group had been on the run, destroying the formations. Naturally, they had used up a lot of Spiritual Energy, even for their Nascent Soul cultivation and much bigger Spiritual Energy Pool.
'Impossible!' Sure enough, Gia and Jare thought the same thing.
Kentucky then landed quite far away from the battlefield. There, Rean took out many Spirit Stones before they started to recover their Spiritual Energy. Not long after, a big shadow appeared over their heads as a giant Tarantula landed by their side. Unlike Jare, Gia had the right to talk to them, especially since they left the battlefield, so she wasn't intervening. "What the h.e.l.l was that? How come you three recovered from those injuries? What was that white light?"
Rean laughed in response as he responded, "Oh, that? It's nothing much for Light Affinity humans like me. There's no better healing power than the Light Element. That's why we were able to recover. Otherwise, do you really think we would take that Soul Transformation Realm guy on? We aren't that crazy."
"Light Element?" Gia knew that the Light Element could be used. However, this was only possible through the manipulation of Yang Energy. That's what she thought Rean was doing at first. It was the first time she heard of someone being born with Light Affinity instead. With that, she asked, "You are kidding, right?"
Rean shook his head as a ball of white light manifested over his palm as he replied, "Nope. Light Element is just natural for me, the same way the Earth Element is for you."
Kentucky agreed with him as he backed Rean up, saying, "He isn't the only one. You probably know I'm a Minokawa, right? Minokawas' Elemental Affinities are both Light and Dark. With that being said, I can guarantee you that Rean isn't lying. He really has Light Element Affinity. By the way, Roan has Dark Element Affinity."
Gia took a deep breath after hearing that. Obviously, Phex told her about the Minokawas' traits. "No wonder Phex is so interested in you all." However, this wasn't Gia's place to ask more. "In any case, this is something between you and Phex, so I won't stick my nose into it. Just take your time to recover, and don't try to pull off such a dangerous move again. If the Minokawa dies, Phex will scoop all my eyes out."
Roan nodded, saying, "Don't worry. Now that we've shown our real power, I don't think the other side will send anyone to stop us anymore. Their other Soul Transformation Realms are very busy with our Stage Six Demon beasts, after all."
Gia nodded before she took flight once again, returning to her peak. The battles were still ongoing, so she had to keep an eye on everything. Nevertheless, she sent the twins a Spiritual Sense message from there, saying, 'In any case, you've already destroyed 11 formations. Also, you killed a Soul Transformation Realm Zasfin while being an entire realm below. It's just that the rewards for killing won't change even if there is a difference in cultivation. Well, whether you want to head back there and destroy more formations or not is up to you. I've already marked your mission as successful.'
Rean, Roan, and Kentucky nodded after hearing as Rean replied, 'We'll head back. After all, those merit points might be of some use. Just keep the Saint Realm guy away from us. That's not something we can fight against at all.'
Gia nodded, saying, 'Naturally.'
Around an hour later, their Spiritual Energy Pools were filled to the brim once again. By now, the demon beast teams had destroyed more than 50 formations, turning the array of formations useless. Since the Demon Beast Aura Repression Formations couldn't connect to each other, the rest of them had become quite meaningless.
In the end, Jare gritted his teeth and ordered the Zasfins to retreat. It would be idiotic to let more of his forces die while the target of protection wasn't there anymore. Besides, the moment the twins' group joined the battle, they might come to help the Stage Six Demon Beasts get rid of the Soul Transformation Realm Zasfins. In any case, he had already lost one. Losing four more was definitely not an option. As for the remaining formations, it became a race between all the demon beast groups to see who would destroy them first.
Rean, Roan, and Kentucky obviously joined the fray. One formation after another was destroyed as Kentucky moved at a higher speed than most. They knew that there were between 70 to 90 formations in this mission. When it was finally over, they counted a total of 83 of them. Rean's group ended up in the second position among those destroying formations, having destroyed 17.
That was to be expected. After all, after they stopped to recover their Spiritual Energy, the other teams continued their jobs. The first place, surprisingly, was Luti's group, with 23 formations destroyed. However, if one counted the merits earned, Rean's group was definitely first as they killed more Nascent Soul Realm Zasfins than anyone else. The Nascent Soul Zasfins were worth a merit point each. As for the Soul Transformation Zasfins, that added another five points.
In the end, the twins got 29 merit points.
Rean's group met up with Luti, which Rean took the opportunity to ask, "Hey, Luti. What kind of rewards are available for these merit points?"
