Chapter 1529: Neptune€™s Judgnt Chapter 1529: Neptune€™s Judgnt Cain had spent three painstaking months concocting a specialized virus.
He knew if the virus tried to use the woman’s vitality to replicate, she would notice, so he altered the toxins that filled the Purgatory Volcanic Range so they would act as food for his creation.
With every breath the woman took and with every ounce of energy she channeled from this place, toxins entered her body.
A Third Realm life form like the woman would normally have found such toxins trivial, so she did not even bother to spell them.
Yet that was a grave mistake as it was constantly fed the replicating virus inside her, which beca a blazing fire once activated. Of course, the flas erupting inside her were not powerful enough to truly kill soone of her level.
Even exploding from within, they lacked the raw might necessary to end a Third Realm existence outright or cause any severe damage.
But they didn’t have to. Their purpose was disruption.
By stoking chaotic energy in her bloodstream, the virus effectively sabotaged her ability to harness her cosmic spells-especially at a critical mont.
A tremor of shock flared in the woman’s eyes as she felt the sudden inferno.
‘No… not now…’ she thought, because she was already in the middle of weaving her newest technique.
The watery droplet she had conjured-ant to summon another monstrous serpent-shuddered in her palm.
The next instant, her focus broke, dispersing the droplet into a useless spray.
A massive backlash tore through her ridians, compounding the havoc caused by the viral flas.
Things went from bad to worse when Cain, newly ascended in power, appeared before her in the sky.
His body blazed with a furious aurora of thirty-one-colored flas, and his Shooting Star Dragon Halberd crackled with lethal intent.
Having broken free of her oceanic domain just monts earlier, he now seized the initiative.
“Damn it!” The woman roared, raising her hand to conjure a water shield.
Calling upon a Third Realm Spell while her bloodstream still churned with viral flas was too risky.
However, simpler conjurations like water shields were more feasible, and they still carried formidable defensive properties.
Earlier, they had stalled Cain’s evil spear for a crucial few monts.
‘I only need a few seconds to purge these flas… then I’ll kill this insect properly,’ she vowed inwardly.
But her thoughts shattered the mont she heard a cracking noise.
Disbelief flooded her expression as her water shield-expected to hold for at least a breath or two-shattered instantaneously, giving Cain a clear shot.
He lunged forward, halberd slicing a deep gash in her chest.
Blood spattered across the air.
“Impossible!” She gasped in pain and surprise, jolting back in a desperate attempt to gain distance.
Summoning another water shield, she steeled herself.
Yet Cain shattered that defense in one stroke as well, driving the halberd’s blade into her thigh and drawing more blood.
‘How is this happening!?’ she scread inwardly.
Her reinforcents of cosmic power should have been enough to withstand whatever the halberd could muster.
She knew Cain had grown stronger, but not to the degree that he could so easily slice into her hardened skin.
She tried conjuring barrier after barrier, but each one broke under the halberd’s assault.
The truth was sothing she could not have suspected: Cain’s breakthrough to the Second Level of the Primordial Path’s Ascension Stage did not rely augnt his body with World Strength.
It also awakened a new ability-Primordial Eyes.
From Cain’s perspective, the world around him teed with crimson lines.
So were wide and pronounced, others thin and subtle.
These lines represented weaknesses in objects, barriers, and even living bodies.
By striking precisely at these critical flaws, he turned what might have been moderate attacks into devastating blows.
The Supre Neo-Demon he had once encountered had used this ability to strike Cain’s own weak points, nearly killing him with seemingly small attacks.
Now, Cain wielded that sa power for himself.
‘So this…’ he thought, eyes gleaming, ‘is Primordial Eyes…’ Every ti the woman hastily conjured a watery defense, Cain’s enhanced vision identified its fragile nexus-the point that would cause the entire structure to collapse.
Each ti he attacked her body, he aid at micro-fractures in her cosmic shielding.
Consequently, more and more wounds scored her flesh, and she retreated frantically.
Yet Cain pursued like a demon hound, thirsting for more of her blood the mont he slled the first trace.
“Stellar Abyssal Strike!” he bellowed, channeling all the energy he could muster.
The halberd dove downward in a crushing arc, leaving a gash so deep in the woman’s chest that bone glistened beneath the shredded muscles.
She shrieked, agony twisting her features, while her cosmic aura quivered under the strain of the virus and the cumulative injuries.
However, good fortune never lasted forever.
A heartbeat after Cain landed that brutal blow, the flas that sabotaged her energy flow died out.
With a snarl, the woman seized full command of her Third Realm might once more.
Rage flared through her mind as she unleashed a shockwave from her body, blasting Cain backward.
“You little shit!” she roared.
Before Cain could stabilize himself, a gigantic energy hand manifested above him, smashing down with enough force to drive him back toward the remnants of the oceanic domain.
“Arrrghh!” Cain’s cry echoed across the sky.
He recognized that energy hand from the start of their battle-it had nearly crushed him before.
But this ti, he channeled his halberd, unleashing a ferocious roar of defiance.
Waving the weapon in a circular motion, he shattered the hand before it could fully drag him beneath the waves.
Even so, the montum nearly slamd him into the waters.
His feet skimd the surface, splashing violently but resisting the pull beneath.
Gritting his teeth, Cain looked up-and his heart lurched.
The sky itself seed to darken as an endless stellar ocean took shape, swirling with unimaginable depth.
It stretched across thousands of kiloters of firmant, resembling a genuine cosmic sea looming overhead.
‘This power… it’s stronger than anything she’s used before.’ He could feel a faint undertone of vitality coursing through the conjured ocean.
Clearly, the woman was pushing beyond normal boundaries to summon a spell of extre magnitude. “Neptune’s Judgnt €“ Supre Water Ascension!” Her furious voice bood across the battered volcanic range.
