Chapter 211 Last Night (One Last Trick)
There was a reason that no one in the Chikitsa clan and all the other sword clans had reached such a stage.
Reaching the bronze rank required the accumulation of tremendous energy.
The energy acted as a push that raised the cultivator to the heavens.
Accumulating that much energy was not easy.
Also, a person must have sufficient Talent.
the Dantain must be abe to take in such rich amount of energy and not collapse.
It is said that the first person that made it to the Bronze rank many years ago took more than a hundred years to reach such a stage.
For this many reasons, the Bronze rank was considered a strong dividing line. It separated the middle realms from the lower realms.
Chiron knew that his strength was nowhere enough to handle the power of someone in the Bronze realm, and that was why he used his tricks to secure fighters in this realm.
Naturally, he first acquired the dragon.
The red blood-fire dragon was strong, but it was still a youngling. And even now, Chiron had forced its hatching process. Of course, this was definitely going to affect its growth it the future.
But for now, he could care less about such matters. Power was only as important as it was useful to him. That rule had not changed.
cored beasts were usually stronger than Cultivators in the same rank for obvious reasons. Although it was a strong ward against Dagger father, the dragon could not beat the knight.
This was the same thing for Elder Ellen.
She was older and her body was strong. Also, she once had a taste of the realm before her power fell.
It was for this reason that Chiron tampered with her body.
However, even with these two heavyweights at his side, the strength of Knight Sheyi was incredible.
The Knight was able to fight either the dragon or Elder Ellen and still afford the necessity to be distracted by watching Chiron.
Chiron had really not understood the depth of strength this bronze knight had.
At least he had not discovered it until now.
*BOOM!!!*
Even Chiron was forced to take a knee on the ground because of the pressure in the air.
It was at this point that he understood that he had calculated wrongly.
For some reason, Knight Sheyi's power was not given to him by the doll. Rather, it was held in place by the doll.
Magic energy was the most mysterious energy in the world. Till now, no one aside Mages knew the origin of Magic energy.
It was also not taught to anyone outside the mages bloodline. Chiron thought that he had discovered the source of the Knight's magic, and that was why he ordered his servants to destroy the Doll.
However, he couldn't have been more wrong.
Now, the true might of a bronze-rank cultivator in the third stage was fully unleashed.
the moment the two remaining orbs entered his body, Knight Sheyi's body gave out a low boom.
And then the stifling pressure followed.
Everyone felt it. The Dagger father was no exception.
the pressure from Knight Sheyi made Chiron feel as if the earth had suddenly developed hands and were pulling him to its centre.
He dropped to his knees, and his blood both boiled from the pressure and yet he felt as if it his muscles were about to freeze over.
This was a type of pain that he had never felt before.
And till this point, Knight Sheyi was yet to move.
The only person that had not been forced to the ground as a result of the tremendous spiritual energy was the Dragon.
It was obviously feeling the pressure but it could still move.
Apparently, even as a red-cored beast, it was not high in spiritual energy and therefore could not match the magical force that the Knight was giving out.
Knight Sheyi stood still. His head pointed to the sky and then he moved his head in Chiron's direction.
only that movement and the Pressure on Chiron multiplied.
The rest of him slammed hard against the ground.
"I'll kill you!" Knight Sheyi muttered.
He took the first step towards Chiron.
*BOOM!*
"AHHH!!!" Chiron screamed. The pain was just too much.
His muscles were grinding against each other, and his organs were pleading to break out of their place and through his skin.
The next step was taken.
*BOOM!*
"AHHH!!!" Chiron screamed again.
In his life, he had gone through pain many times, but it was never like this.
Chiron struggled and looked in Knight Sheyi's direction.
Both of them were quite a distance from one another.
It was easy for Chiron to understand that by the time Knight Sheyi got to him, the pressure alone would have already killed him.
Fortunately for him, for some reason, the Knight had now become sluggish. His steps were very slow.
"Wait a minute!" Chiron thought to himself. "He is slow!?"
And that was when it hit Chiron in the head. Knight Sheyi was a bronze rank cultivator.
that meant that he was also affected by the seven sins.
If Chief Dona was affected by the Sin of Gluttony, and Dagger father was affected by Avarice, what was Knight Sheyi affected by?
Chiron suddenly realized it. It was Sloth.
Immediately, he also guessed one of the functions of the Living doll.
Apparently, it held Knight Sheyi's power in other to prevent the trouble that the Sin of Sloth had on him.
But he also noticed something else. When there is a weakness, there is also a strength.
but for now, Chiron was going to try and take advantage of this weakness.
Gritting his teeth, he gave the command to his servants to attack.
The order had been given.
first came the attack from the Dragon.
It used its long spiky tail to slap Knight Sheyi.
The Attack made it, and it did indeed push Knight Sheyi a fair distance but that was it.
Knight Sheyi grabbed the dragon by the Tail. With two pulls, he brought it closer, and then he sent a punch to its head.
*Boom!*
A punch sent the beast screeching against the ground.
But as the dragon slide away, it still sent fire towards Knight Sheyi.
This was all it took to offset the Pressure in the battlefield that was Knight Sheyi was giving of.
Immediately, all of Chiron's servants came with one attack and the next.
Carla came with her claws.
*Clank!*
Knight Sheyi's armor was impenetrable.
Hunter also attacked And even Emma that had arrived late to the battel field.
All attacks was loaded on the knight's body.
"BACK OFF!!!"
He waved his hands
His fist went through Carla's Stomach. From which he grabbed Hunter's head by the other side.
He flung both of them away.
He grabbed Emma. Lifted her into the air, and as he brought her to the ground, he Broke her back on his knee.
Chiron noticed that against such terrible power, even his servants were useless.
Immediately, his mind hurried for what to do.
And then he looked to the side.
He remembered Elder Ellen on the ground.
The top Half of her body was not so far away from him.
He immediately rushed to her side.
It was just as he had suspected. She was still alive when he checked.
he flipped her over like a pancake, torn open the remnant of clothing she had on.
And on her back, he found what he was searching for.
It was at this time that Knight Sheyi broke Emma's back and threw her away.
He looked towards Chiron and headed for him.
Even with the amount of power he had, the sin of Sloth was strong on him. his movements were not so fast.
this gave Chiron the time he needed.
From the moment that the fight started, Chiron had done something.
It was something that everyone on the battlefield had even forgotten existed.
And that was the mass amount of Blood floating high up above everybody's head.
When the fight started, Chiron had been killing like a madman.
As he slaughtered the hundreds that came for him, he used his ability.
*BLOOD MANIPULATION*
This ability allowed him control over the blood of those that were shed by his blade.
High up in the sky was this Full mass of Blood.
It had gathered there, and was just enough for his next and final trick.
If this one does not work, then he was good as dead.
He bit his hand and drew with his blood Rune Marks on top the runes on her Back.
A long time ago, chiron had summoned the gate to the nether realm.
this was when he was trying to make carla a demon. Back then, he couldn't get the gate to fully open.
It was simply because he did not have enough blood sacrifice.
Now, he had hundreds.
he muttered Incantations as he slammed his hand on her back, "Gate to the nether realm, open for me!"
