Chapter 244 Damein's Shocking Prowess
Within that split second, a shout echoed in his mind…
'Undying Wrath...Second Phase!!'
Inside the depths of Damien's ethereal core, his jet black Origin Seed was already rapidly spinning, but this time the thick jet black band of Anti-Energy wrapped around his Origin Seed became even thicker and wider, resulting in an increase of the destructive and oppressive energy in his body.
His ethereal energy, which now contained 40% of Anti-Energy, instantly spread throughout his body while bringing upon an overwhelming burden on his bones, muscles, and every single part of his body.
He felt as if hellish punishment was being exacted out on him from within his body. He could feel immense pressure on his bones and felt as if they would crack under this hellish pressure anytime.
However, feeling the tremendous and unfathomable power coursing through his veins, he felt like he could even crush mountains with his bare hands and decimate huge buildings with just a swing of his hand.
On the outside, Damien's pupils became completely jet black, giving one the feeling of staring into a bottomless abyss.
His aura exploded to a higher degree, and even the air around him became chaotic such that one could notice the ripples in the air just because of his aura affecting the air around him.
From the audience's perspective, they could see the huge snake covering the figure of Damien as if it was going to swallow him whole and let out sighs of pity and ridicule for overestimating himself.
Damien raised his sword upwards with both hands and shouted in his mind, 'Searing Strike Rendering Worlds!!'
A bright and huge purple thunderbolt manifested around his sword, which was over two meters long and even seemed to heat his sword.
"HAAA!!" With a loud roar, he slashed his Knightfall towards the blazing snake with all his might, and the lightning bolt left his sword in the shape of his sword.
The purple lightning bolt, shaped like a sword, sliced right through the blazing snake before it could even reach near Damien.
All this merely happened within seconds, and Roy was surprised to see his finishing move being dispersed so easily.
But what made his eyes widen in shock was that a two-meter-long lightning sword was heading towards him at a terrifying speed that even seemed to create a windstorm as it ripped through the air.
Before he could even raise his hands to protect himself or even circulate his remaining ethereal energy to act as a defensive cover for his body, the purple lightning sword struck his chest heavily, which sent him flying to the other end of the arena as lightning streaks passed through his body.
Everyone was extremely shocked, and some even clenched their armrests with a stunned expression, not believing what they just saw.
*BANG!*
Roy flew for more than four hundred meters and crashed violently against the ethereal barrier, and collapsed on the ground with his body completely singed.
He now looked like a blackened piece of meat that got roasted for too long. And when seen closely, one could see that Roy's body was charred with severe burns and his blood vessels seemed to have burst already.
He was bleeding from several places while his muscles seemed to twitch on their own.
His clothes were completely destroyed, and he was lying stark naked. One would think he was dead already if they hadn't sensed that his ethereal aura was still present but very weak.
They could see that he was thoroughly unconscious and even seemed to be in a half-dead state.
Damien immediately deactivated his Undying Wrath as he kneeled on the ground on one of his knees while holding on to his sword as a support.
Even though he barely activated the second phase of his Undying Wrath skill for more than a second, he felt as if his bones were about to get crushed by the destructive energy inside him.
He even sensed that some of his internal organs suffered some light injuries while his body felt completely drained.
Most of his ethereal energy was burned up instantly as if it was devoured by his Undying Wrath skill. He barely had 5% of his ethereal energy left but seeing what happened to Roy, he smiled smugly.
Damien, in fact, had to exert more concentration and focus on holding back; otherwise, his lighting bolt would have pierced right through Roy's chest!
He himself was shocked at how much ethereal strength he gained just by using the second phase of his Undying Wrath skill.
He knew things would turn very bad if he killed Roy, and right now, he was in no position to deal with the consequences.
He knew when to kill and when not to.
Reva's gaze shook when she saw Damien cutting through the huge blazing snake like it was nothing and the purple lightning sword striking Roy to a half-dead state.
She, however, felt relieved, thinking that her worst fears did not come true, and Damien did somehow keep his promise.
Leon Xeton mumbled with an astounded expression, "He is the chosen one...I knew 'He' couldn't be wrong. Before he released his lightning sword, his ethereal strength touched the Sky Ethereal Realm even though his ethereal aura was still at the third level of the Spirit Ethereal Realm!"
Even though Reva felt that Damien was going to win, she still couldn't comprehend how Damien managed to win. She also sensed how his aura spiked to a terrifyingly high degree for a second just before he sent an attack towards Roy.
She wondered how Damien was able to do such astonishing and unbelievable things. Everything she learned and knew about the Ethereal Way seemed useless when she tried to understand Damien's combat prowess.
Ximir, no matter how much thunderstruck he was, recovered his senses and quickly ordered some men to take Roy away to the medical ward quickly before blood loss and internal injuries could kill him.
Ximir cleared his throat and announced, "This match has been clearly won by Damien Godwin with an overwhelming victory!"
Ximir clearly saw that if Damien hadn't shown mercy in his final attack, Roy would have a huge hole in his chest and die a horrible death.
Damien slowly stood up and stored away his Knightfall and stood on the spot with a smile as he saw Valentina looking at him with a captivated expression.
She rushed towards him with an exhilarated smile like a girl seeing her lover returning from war. Damien walked towards her while trying to recover his body from the heavy exhaustion that seemed to settle down in his body.
He quickly popped in a healing pill and felt his body being refreshed and his internal injuries being healed.
Luna had warned him he would be taking quite a risk by trying to activate the second phase of his Undying Wrath with his current cultivation and told him that even if he does, he should not use it for more than a second.
A few weeks ago, Damien already realized that his combat prowess wouldn't be consistent as his cultivation increases. So, he thought of using the second phase of his Undying Wrath to compensate for the decrease in his combat prowess.
But much to his astonishment, he found that the second phase of the Undying Wrath was way more powerful than he expected, especially when he used his Sword Will coupled with his ethereal arts.
Valentina hugged him intimately with a happy smile. She made sure he was okay because she saw him kneeling with a tired expression.
However, she sensed that only his ethereal energy reserves seemed to run low while everything else seemed fine.
She was the only one who was not surprised that Damien defeated Roy as she already knew Damien was special and was not someone who could be judged by what one could perceive.
The crowd were very lively as they commented on Damien's prowess,
"Man, we totally looked down on this guy. It seems like we are really blind. This guy has to be the best genius ever in the history of our world. Don't you think?"
"I know, right. Did you see how cool his ethereal lightning sword was? It was so big and thick with purple lightning as if that sword came right from the heavens."
"Defeating a Level Six Earth Ethereal Realm with a cultivation of Level Five Spirit Ethereal Realm is a feat I or anyone else for that matter would ever be able to achieve in our lives. Junior brother Damien is too frightening."
"Aaah...I wish I had a lightning seed like brother Damien. Look at all those girls swooning for him, especially Fairy Valentina. Sigh...some are just blessed by the heavens."
"But I can't imagine how senior brother Roy is going to handle the loss of face after waking up, especially when he finds out that he became knocked out without any clothes like a burned chicken. How embarrassing and pitiful..."
"Shh...don't talk too loud unless you want his men to cut your throat."
However, suddenly an angry roar resounded across the whole area, "What is the meaning of this!"
