Death… And Me

Chapter 1361 - Clones Limit

Gigo narrowed his eyes after hearing Roan's words, seeing the confidence the twins' group exuded. However, even though Divine Sense didn't work, he could tell that their cultivations were far behind his group's. "Hmph! Pretending to be some hot shit." Soon after, a green light began to gather around Gigo's body, which soon went deep into the earth.

'Wood Element Affinity!' The twins, Hurio, Kentucky, and Lilia, immediately identified the elemental affinity Gigo had from the light it emanated. Cultivators usually needed to merge both Earth and Water Element to be able to use Wood Element. However, it was obvious that Gigo didn't need such a thing, making him an odd elemental affinity cultivator.

Not long after, hundreds of enormous vines filled with Wood Element and Divine Energy grew out of the ground. Gigo was quite proficient at controlling Wood Element. He could quickly make the plants around him move like an army under his command, making it very hard for even Rean and Roan to think about dodging the attack.

Flying wouldn't be of much use either since three members of Gigo's group were at the Initial Stage of the Transition Realm. Naturally, they could fly and stop Kentucky in the air.

Gigo's companions didn't want to let their targets get away, so as Gigo attacked from afar, his companions all spread out, trying to close up all of the escape routes the twins' group could take.

Surprisingly, Rean's group didn't seem to be afraid. They looked at the vines heading in their direction, threatening to pierce their bodies as if they weren't even there.

Suddenly, Sally's eyes, which were closed until now, opened as a fiery light appeared inside them. Her Fire-attribute spatial ability spread not even an instant later, locking everyone down. At that moment, Gigo's vines were turned into charcoal, while his companions felt their bodies ignite from the sheer heat.

After all, Sally was using her spatial ability in an area several times smaller than when she caught the twins before. With that said, the power behind it was much more concentrated and devastating. Even Gigo had to give it his all just to keep the Fire Element imbued in the spatial ability from burning him alive. With that being said, one could only imagine how well the Elemental Transformation Realm cultivators were faring.

*Arrrgghhh!*

Screams soon resounded from those five disciples of the Didatico Sect. Then again, it wasn't surprising as Sally's attack was just too much for them to bear. However, Sally didn't kill them straight away. The small white dragon warned her that she should only protect the twins. After she saw that Gigo's group lost all their means to continue their attacks, she closed her eyes again and fell into a slumber... or so it seemed anyway.

Of course, Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Hurio were already expecting this much.

'Life Style, First Form, Enhancement!'

'Death Style, First Movement Form, Shadow Steps!'

'Death World!'

'Lightning Body Current!'

'Fire Storm!'

'Life Fire, First Form, Flame Emperor Slash!'

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

Rean, Roan, and Hurio quickly released their movement techniques all at once. Following that, they used the skills that had the best chance of taking down their opponents. The three of them then attacked one opponent each.

At the same time, Kentucky acted, attacking yet another one of the five.

'Kawa's Divine Thrust!'

With that, he transformed into a flash of black and white flames that struck another one of their opponents.

*Swish, swish, swish...*

*Spurt!*

*Boom, boom, boom!*

Unsurprisingly, their opponents didn't have time to react. Well, even if they did, they wouldn't be able to do much since Sally restricted them. They could barely move at all when the twins' group struck. And just like that, four members from Gigo's group passed away. Sure enough, it was a free meal.

Gigo was terrified when he saw that. The only reason Gigo was relatively okay was that he stayed behind while his companions approached the twins' group. Because of that, the effects of Sally's spatial ability could still be mitigated somewhat. However, he also saw two more Reans and Roans appear by his side almost as fast as his companions died.

'Death, Style, Fifth Form, Mirage Assault!'

Of course, even though his reaction was slow due to what just happened, he was still a genius from one of the top ten powers, the Didatido Sect. Not to mention that he was over an entire realm above Rean and Roan's current cultivations. 'Fuck!'

'Yggdrasil!'

Suddenly, something that looked like a tree sprouted from his feet, propelling him to the skies.

'Spikes!'

At the same time, the tree shot out hundreds of thorns, which hit Rean and Roan's clones. The clones reacted by using the Reversive Arcs of the Death Style. However, they were unable to resist the assault from the skill and were destroyed almost immediately.

Gigo didn't stay there to see what happened, though. He used the propulsion the skill gave him to shoot into the skies, quickly running for his life. So what if he destroyed the clones in one go? If that salamander on Rean's shoulder opened its eyes again, he probably wouldn't have a chance to escape anymore. He definitely didn't want to see the twins' group ever again in his life.

Rean and Roan narrowed their eyes when they saw that, with Rean telling Roan, "Roan, it seems like we were right."

Roan nodded in response. "Indeed. I guess that's the limit of Mirage Assault."

It wasn't just now that Rean and Roan noticed that the clones formed through Mirage Assault started to fall behind in power. At first, they had around 80% of the twins' power. However, as the twins' power increased, the clones were slowly becoming unable to keep up with it.

Roan then shook his head, saying, "In the end, a clone made of just Divine Soul Power and Elements has its problems. It's not like it's a corporeal entity. In any case, I'm still surprised they can still carry around 40% or so of our strength."

Rean agreed with Roan, nodding as he replied, "That's true. However, there's yet another problem. Haven't you noticed? It seems like we can't fool cultivators at the Transition Realm and above anymore. They only need a single glance to tell the real us apart from the clones."

Roan didn't mind that, though. "There isn't much we can do about that, to be honest. The senses of a Transition Realm cultivator are just in another league altogether. I'll have to think up of some new techniques in the future."

In the meantime, Hurio called for the twins' attention, telling the two, "You can discuss that stuff later. For now, how about we get the marks?"
