"Let's start round two, Nux."
lia spoke, then, the blood under Nux's feet moved and turned into a spike again. Nux dodged, however, that wasn't enough, two more spikes popped out of the puddle of blood as the previous spike that attacked him turned back to the liquid state.
Nux dodged the two spikes, since he was a body cultivator as well, dodging these attacks at this level was not hard for him, however, the problem was…
lia had barely started.
More and more Blood moved towards Nux, the Rings lia left hadn't stopped pouring out blood, the Stage was overflowing with all that blood, here, lia could generate as many Blood Spikes as she wanted.
From handling two spikes at the sa ti, she started increasing the difficulty, as if she was trying to test Nux. Nux tried to fire the Fire Lances to distract her, however, this ti, lia was prepared.
The Blood on the ground rose up and turned into Blood Wall.
However, lia knew that one Wall wouldn't be enough, therefore, she had already prepared 5 more walls,
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
The Lances and the Blood Walls collided, and after many explosions, the Fire Lances managed to pass through 4 Walls, the Last 2 Walls, however, were still standing tall, and lia was completely unhurt.
However, the sa couldn't be said for Nux, he was continuously being harassed by the Blood Spikes, lia wasn't even giving him the chance to regain his footing and jump back, the continuous harassnt from 12 Spikes for all the directions was too much, even for Nux.
Nux has once been through a training like this with Thyra, he was attacked from all directions and had to dodge while he stood on a bamboo tree, however, this ti, it was completely different. The Spikes didn't just co from a particular direction, they aid at different parts of his body from different angles.
And what was worse?
"Ugggghhhh!!"
lia had another trump card.
All this while, Nux thought that the only way she could attack him was through controlling the Blood pool under his ground, this made dodging the attacks slightly easier since even if they ca from different angles, their source was the sa.
However,
lia was a Great Sage Vampire,
She didn't have to spread the Blood all over the Stage to increase her reach… she…
She had the ability to create Blood out of thin air.
And that's how she took him by surprise and attacked him.
She created a Blood Spike out of thin air and aid at Nux's heart, however, Nux's instincts kicked in the last second and he avoided a fatal injury, however, that ti was enough for one of the 12 Blood Spikes to pass through his defenses and pierce through his left hand, forming a hole in his palm.
Nux groaned in pain as he quickly moved his hand away and tried to stop the bleeding, and only then, did he realize it.
This blood pool…
It was poisoned.
The mont it ca into contact with Nux's blood, it started burning away Nux's blood and blood vessels, and that process, was not painless.
"UggggghhhhH!!!"
Nux groaned in pain as his left hand trembled.
lia didn't give him an opportunity to rest either, she continued her rciless assault, just 10 to 20 more cuts, then, she would finally poison Nux's entire body, making it impossible for him to even move, let alone fight.
She even mixed the Blood Spikes she created out of the thin air, making it even more difficult for Nux to dodge all the attacks.
The Rings were still producing Blood, so the more ti passed, the stronger lia was getting. Also, with her regeneration power working at a horrifying rate, other than her right hand, the rest of her body was already back to normal.
Of course, this didn't an she liked this situation.
3 minutes had passed, only 2 minutes were left.
Nux put a lot more resistance than she thought he would.
She had to be more aggressive here, or else, she would lose.
Thinking about that, lia's red eyes shined and suddenly, the number of spikes attacking Nux doubled.
"AaaaAagghhh!!"
Nux scread in pain.
More and more Spikes passed through his defenses, his Battlesuit was like a normal piece of cloth in front of these spikes. More and more spikes cut through his body and more and more poisonous blood entered his body and started burning his blood vessels, inducing agonizing pain all over his body.
Dealing with the pain and dodging all those spikes got harder and harder, more and more spikes continued to attack Nux's body, cutting him from all the angels, inflicting more and more pain, and making his movent speed even slower.
'Fuckk!"
Nux cursed out loud. A popped-out vein could be seen on his forehead, his face had paled due to pain and loss of blood.
In the end, Nux clenched his fists, his golden eyes shined, and then,
*BOOOM*
Dark Mist burst out of his body and spread all around him.
'That…'
Seeing the Devouring Mist surrounding him, Amaya frowned.
'That's... Devouring Mist?' Thyra questioned with a frown on her face.
'Seems like it…' Ember nodded, her expression was similar to Thyra's.
All the won turned towards Amaya, the one who knew the most about the Devouring Mist.
'Amaya, Why does it feel so different than before?' Felberta questioned.
'I do not know.' Amaya shook her head, then, she narrowed her eyes and continued,
'I only know that that Mist…
It is a lot more dangerous than before...
And this is not true for the Devouring Mist alone…'
'His spells.'
Ember realized.
'Indeed… those spells are not supposed to be that strong...' Amaya nodded.
'I agree, I am practicing all those spells as well, his Fireball managed to break through lia's defenses like it was nothing.
And that Rain of Destruction, it is not even an actual spell, he is just using many 8 Star Fire Lance Spells at the sa ti.'
'But all those Lances shouldn't be that strong either.
His 8 Star Spells have the strength of 10 Star Spells for so reason…'
The wives couldn't understand.
Nux's entire battle style has changed.
The Mist, his Spells, even the abilities he got from the System… everything has strengthened to a frightening degree.
And Nux's wives weren't the only ones who were able to see this.
Orpheus, who was sitting in another spectator's room was looking at the battle with a grim look on his face.
'That Mist…'
