Chapter 183 Sky Rupture Spell
Chapter 183 Sky Rupture Spell
'What the fuck?!'
SPLASH!
Rex got dragged by something into the water, it caught Rex off guard because he forgot about the creature inside the water.
The black leaves that he held got blown by the wind,
Looking at this, Liliya already gets the gist of it.
The Lightless Leaves hurt the creature down there that somehow linked to the Northern Black Head, and to extract their tears she need to hurt the creature inside the water more.
Knowing this, Liliya immediately pounces at the Lightless Leaves.
But the other remaining Northern Black Heads also jumped towards the Lightless Leaves, their few numbers got increased again.
They came outpouring from the darkness like ants, it completely baffles Liliya.
Her movement is faster than the Northern Black Heads, but in order to dip the Lightless Leaves to the water, she has to go through these hundreds of Nothern Black Heads.
'There are too many of them!', Liliya thought as she prepares for a fight.
SWIT!
Many of the Northern Black Heads suddenly use their abilities.
Even Rex with his enhanced senses can't dodge it, let alone Liliya.
She got overwhelmed by their attacks as her mind started to throb, it feels like a chronic headache that comes attacking her brain repeatedly.
It was very painful, and she definitely can't concentrate in this state.
Liliya gritted her teeth before she started running away,
If she still keeps on fighting head-on with the Northern Black Heads, she will lose the Lightless Leaves and that will be bad.
Even if she got surrounded by the Northern Black Heads, she will not die.
The Northern Black Heads are only rank two or rank three Supernatural, even if they tried for days they will not kill Liliya who is a rank five.
Meanwhile,
Rex is currently inside the water,
The sudden incident caught him off guard, and he didn't have the time to breathe.
Whatever the thing that pulls Rex inside the water is, it has almost the same strength as him because he got pulled easily.
He's squatting before so it's easier to pull him, but even so,
Not many creatures can surprise or even have the strength to do so, only creatures rank five or above can pull him like this.
Blubble Blubble...
The creature pulled Rex deep inside the water.
Bubbles came out of Rex's mouth as he got dragged deeper, and not long he got flung to the bottom hitting a rock.
BOOM!
Rex shakes his head before suddenly, his body was attack by internal pain.
The water is corrupted by the Lightless Leaves that can kill rank four creatures easily, and now Rex is currently inside this poisonous water.
'System, Is there any antidote for this thing', Rex asks.
<Yes, It cost 2,000 Gold to purchase Lightless Leaf Poison Antidote. Does the user want to proceed with the purchase?>
Rex opens his eyes trying to read the system's notification,
But to his surprise, his eyes got stung the moment he opened his eyes.
His eyes started to emit white steam as his bloodline kicks in, his eyes started to heal by themselves, and not long Rex's eyes becomes normal again.
'I can't be here for long', Rex thought before he started swimming up.
Rex can't open his eyes but he just swam up hoping to reach the surface, but then, he suddenly sense something approaching him.
SWOOSH!
He swam to the side dodging a white tentacle that wanted to whip him.
It seems the creature inside the water is also paying close attention to him, and probably will not let him go.
After feeling another tentacle was about to whip him,
"Lightning Salvo!"
BLITZ!!
Rex pour all of the mana he can into his fingertips as it shot out a black lightning strike, it completely electrocuted the water around him including the white tentacle.
SCREECH!
With the momentary pause, Rex swam up desperately.
"HUAAH!", Rex gasp for air as he poked out of the water, he immediately get rid of the water from his eyes but got pulled once again.
SPLASH!
Feeling annoyed by the creature, Rex forcefully opens his eyes.
He looks to the white tentacle before a stats notification appears, it appears just below him and it is still quite far.
'There it is!', Rex thought.
With his throbbing eyes that wanted to burst because of the exposure to the poisonous water, Rex gritted his teeth, 'System, Completely learn the Sky Rupture spell!'
<Learning Sky Rupture Skill for 10,000 Gold, Do the user want to proceed?>
'YES!', Rex shouted inside his head.
SNAP!
Immense information went inside Rex's brain instantly, he instantly knows all of the power and technique to use the Sky Rupture spell.
It is a high-ranking spell, and it is said to take a huge amount of mana.
Rex's body is covered by a black lightning aura that is so thick that even the water can't penetrate through, all of his entire being is cracking with chaotic black lightning.
Meanwhile,
Liliya is currently still running in a circle,
She attacks the Northern Black Heads a couple of times to reduce their number but then, the Northern Black Heads suddenly stopped chasing her.
"Huh? Why did they stop?", She thought in confusion.
Her plan was to reduce their number by laying Exploding Mark on the ground, it works for a while until they suddenly stopped chasing after her.
Then, Liliya suddenly felt the wind change direction.
It happened suddenly and Liliya can instantly feel it,
The wind feels like the wind before a storm, it's like something big is about to happen.
"Is it Rex?", Liliya thought before she went back to the place, she's a little concerned about Rex because of the poisonous water.
But Rex did all sorts of things, and one thing she knows well is that he will not die easily.
Back to the place before,
The Northern Black Heads that cease to chase after Liliya are currently stacking against each other, their number can even cover the whole water surface completely.
'Are they trying to protect the creature inside the water?', Liliya thought.
Then suddenly,
RUMBLE!
The sky suddenly creates a thundering sound that shocked Liliya,
Although she can't see the sky because of the thick fog of the Lightless Mash, she can feel the weather is changing and something definitely sparks this occurrence.
From the gap between hundreds of Northern Black Heads,
Liliya saw the water lit up with lightning,
Just from a glance, she instantly knows that Rex is the one causing all of this.
'What kind of spell is he using? a rank five Awakened have this kind of power? No way right?', Liliya thought in awe.
Even if she's not an Awakened, she can feel the mana that gathers around the place like a fierce wind getting pulled into Rex's direction.
Just as she looks at the sky,
CRAACKK!!
A bolt of huge lightning came down from the sky instantly piercing the fog and hit the barricade of Northern Black Heads,
It instantly cut through the barricade easily and hits the water,
BOOM!!
The collision creates a huge booming sound creating a huge crater on the ground as the water exploded, all of the water got vaporized by the lightning.
A powerful shockwave was created from the explosion,
The place got flattened in half a mile radius, the ground is scarred because of the powerful impact of the shockwave with no sign of the moist environment.
All of it got vaporized by the bolt of lightning,
This happened in a flash,
Liliya is looking at the sky, but before she knows it, the spell already hit the water sending her and all rocks, trees, and even Northern Black Heads flying away.
Some of the water that doesn't get vaporized started to rain the place,
Liliya already creates a barrier of red marks to protect her from the impact, but she still got blown away because of how powerful it is.
She got up from the debris, and she was shocked to see her barrier have a hole in it.
Rex's Sky Rupture spell is so powerful that it broke Liliya's barrier even though she's not the target, and Liliya felt pain all over her body.
Some parts of her body got charred, and it completely baffles her.
'What kind of spell is that, I have never seen that kind of power came from a rank five Awakened', Liliya thought.
She looks up to the sky and saw the sky got ripped open, the sky looks like as if a dragon just come out of it.
It is simply unbelievable.
Liliya then walks closer to the scene and finds three-quarters of the water is gone.
But just when she's about to search for Rex,
SPLASH!
A huge shadow flew past Liliya's vision,
SPLAT!
It creates a fleshy sound behind Liliya who is still stunned, she looks to her back and found a creature carcass landed behind her.
The creature is like a plant that has many tentacles,
It has petals around its head with a mouth filled with hundreds of razor-sharp teeth, it has eight white tentacles, and its size is as big as a house.
Liliya then looks back to her back and saw Rex coming out of the water,
He was frozen in place when he saw Liliya looking at him before he said, "Oops, I didn't expect the spell to be that strong", Rex smiles awkwardly while scratching his head.
While Liliya on the other hand, she's completely speechless.
Thirty minutes passed,
The creature that Rex battles inside the water turn out to be a female Northern Black Head just like the system said.
Although it is a low-ranking Supernatural, the females are strong Supernatural.
The one that Rex fought has mid-rank five power, and some can even reach peak rank five but to the females are few.
A group of more than a hundred Northern Black Heads is certain to have a female, and they will desperately protect the female at all costs.
Even if it costs all of their lives.
The females can grow their group so that more Northern Black Heads will defend it.
By hurting or killing the females that they so desperately defended,
All of the male Northern Black Heads will cry because of it, some will even cry even though they are already dead like the deflated one before because they're linked to each other.
With that, Rex and Liliya manage to gather two bottles of Northern Black Head tears.
The mission is a success, and it only takes them a couple of days just right on Rex's schedule to go back to the university.
It will take them some time to go back to human territory, and they still need to be careful.
"Let's go back, two bottles are enough", Rex said as he tied the bottles to his waist.
Liliya nodded her head but she squat down first to write their findings, she's also instructed by the Green Messenger to write all of this down to store this in the SCO's database.
After she finished, they then started their journey back.

"Are you going to just give up?", a woman said with a disappointed look.
She's talking to a man that has sunken eyes, there is alcohol on the tables, and he looks very devastated as if his life is meaningless.
The man is Duncan Platchi,
The news that Rex is under the Reed Family protection completely devastated him, he even cease to care about the attacks on the Sullivan Family.
Many of his trusted people got killed,
Duncan lost his fight against Rex, and he completely understands it.
The Reed Family was his ally, and now they're leaning more to Rex's side rather than his family.
This means that Rex has the potential surpassing of the Platchi Family combined, and against such a caliber he can't do anything anymore.
His drive to take revenge dwindle, he doesn't want to take any more losses.
"Our son is still restless in his grave, his killer is still roaming around without a care of what he has done!", Duncan's wife shouted in anger.
But Duncan ignores all of that, he kept drinking the alcohol.
Duncan's wife smacked her lips in displeasure, "Then I'll do it myself!", she walks to the door intending to leave but got intercepted by Duncan.
"It's over my dear, I want to take revenge but we still need to think of the living. Think of your eldest son, if you try something we will be obliterated by the Reed Family", Duncan said helplessly.
Hearing this, Duncan's wife's lips started to tremble.
Her tears broke as she leans on Duncan's chest, it was a fact that they can't deny that Rex is out of their reach right now.
And forcing it will be suicide.
"I'm sorry my son, I am incompetent in avenging your death", Duncan mumbles as he hugs her wife's trembling body.
