Chapter 139 Void Gauntlets

Meanwhile,

? Mag'ladroth's consciousness,

A fierce battle raged as one man fought against an eerie-looking beast. The man was covered with blood from head to toe while the beast had no injury whatsoever.

Halting his continuous onslaught, the man gazed at the beast as he thought,

"Just what is this thing? I have been trying to hit it for half an hour but it continues to dodge my attacks. Not to mention the fact that my stamina has reduced greatly. If this continues, I might as well fall to the ground due to lack of stamina," The man continued to think as he searched for an opening to attack the beast.

"If only I had a weapon," the man thought as the idea of using his spatial ability to attack came into his mind.

While the man tried to think, a voice sounded from above. It seemed like a decree from the heavens itself as it reverberated through the whole plane.

The voice was of the Void Dragon Mag'ladroth as it spoke,

"Come on kiddo, you could do better than this. You have to prove to me that you could use your bloodline and harness its power to your use," The Void Dragon said, its words giving Ray some hope as an idea came to his mind.

"Well, I don't have much to lose. Might as well try it," Ray thought as he closed his eyes and concentrated on a large stream of energy flowing within his body.

As his concentration deepened, the energy divided into multiple smaller streams of energy. All different from each other as the energies flowed through different parts of his body.

Ray deepened his concentration even more as he concentrated on a singular stream of energy. This stream of energy flowed around his mana core and acted like a shell that covered the mana core like a translucent curtain.

It was golden in color while greyish-black particles revolved around it. This stream of energy represented the bloodline energy that was generated from his bloodline.

Ray concentrated on the energy as he tried to change its pathway by making it flow through the pathways in which his mana flowed.

The thing was that Ray's bloodline energy had a limited pathway as it didn't flow to his whole body but rather flowed around his mana core and to use this energy fully, Ray had to make it pass through the mana core.

However, the result of doing this was rather dangerous as he couldn't control the strength he received by doing this and would lose control of himself.

Therefore, Ray tried to use the bloodline energy in the same way as his mana, so he could experiment with his new idea.

While Ray tried out his plan and concentrated deeper into his body, the Void Beast stood still as it didn't attack.

As for why it didn't attack, the reason was simply that Mag'ladroth had ordered it not to.

As for Mag'ladroth, the Void Dragon was intrigued as it observed Ray's action and thought,

"To think that he would try to use bloodline energy in such a way. Though it's crude, I have to say that this kid is much better than those so-called prodigies in the outer realm,"

Thinking of this, another thought came into the Void Dragon's mind as it wondered,

"What will happen if they were to find that the legacy holder and the descendant of the most powerful Primal God is the same person and the fact that person is someone from a lower world on the verge of metamorphosis? Bet they will be bawling their eyes out," The Void Dragon laughed as the expression of those so-called geniuses came into his mind.

Meanwhile,

Ray's eyes snapped open as he felt excruciating pain throughout his arms. The veins in both his arms popped out and it seemed as if snakes were twirling around his arms.

However, Ray endured the pain as he continued to force the bloodline energy through his mana pathways, and in doing so, Ray slowly made the bloodline energy undergo a full cycle from the mana core to his hands and back by using the mana pathways as a medium for it to travel.

Slowly, the energy started to condense around Ray's arms and took the form of a greyish-black smoke. It started from his forearms and slowly traveled down his fists.

The smoke then slowly revolved around his arms and started to solidify. The smoke solidified as it took the form of gauntlets and arm bracers, covering both of his arms.

With the energy solidified in the form of a weapon, the pain subsided and Ray's expression eased as he calmed down and looked at his hands.

He looked down and noticed greyish-black gauntlets and arm bracers covering his hands. Ray observed the items and noticed strange archaic runes running down on them as they formed the shape of a draconic claw.

While Ray was inspecting the items, his system sounded as he received a notification,

[Ding:- New Weapons Formed,

Weapons:- Void Gauntlets And Void Bracers [Pair]

Description:- Gauntlets made by a rookie as a final attempt to defeat a difficult enemy. The user experimented upon himself and by solidification of the Void Dragon bloodline essence, the gauntlets took form. These gauntlets have the ability to punch through the void itself and contain immense power while more uses and abilities are to be discovered.

To use them, the user must condense his Void Dragon Bloodline towards his hands and have the will to form the weapon.

These gauntlets require 100 Bloodline Essence and any damage to them would consume the bloodline essence and the consumed bloodline essence would be permanently lost.

The user will have to make up for the bloodline essence by training his bloodline more or by consuming the compatible bloodline.

Note:- These can only be used for a limited and using them after the time limit would cause the user to experience excruciating pain and it may even damage the mana pathways if not stopped]

Ray took his time as he read the whole description of his newly formed weapons.

"So these are formed from my bloodline. Guess they will help me channel my bloodline more and allow me to output more power," Ray thought as he looked at his hands.

Clenching his fists, Ray turned his head and gazed at the Void Beast who stood motionless.

"I thank you for the fact that you waited for me. Now let me repay your favor by defeating you," Ray said as he channeled his mana into the weapons.

Blackish lightning arcs snaked around his gauntlets as he kicked the ground and attacked the Void Beast.

Sensing Ray's incoming attack, the Void Beast lifted its head and looked at him as it saw Ray approaching him in slow motion.

It was one of the abilities that the Void Beast possessed. It allowed the Void Beast to see things in slow motion and predict their trajectory and it was due to this ability that Ray had been unable to land a strike on the Void Beast.

However, this time it was different as Ray had a new weapon with him.

As Ray approached the Void Beast, he used [Blink] and blinked behind the Void Beast and punched.

The Void Beast had predicted Ray's attack and Blinked accordingly. However, the Void Beast wasn't able to as,

"Boom… Bang…"

Ray's first connected with the Void Beast's stomach as it sent the Void Beast flying through the air. While the Void Beast crashed against one of the Volcano's walls. Ray sighed in relief as he muttered,

"So they can block someone from using spatial moves," Muttering this, Ray did the same as he blinked forward and appeared above the Void Beast.

Standing above the Void Beast, Ray infused his gauntlets with mana and also infused a tiny bit of his bloodline energy. This caused the gauntlets to turn black as a blackish fire covered them while lightning snaked around their surface.

After that, five claws extended from the gauntlets as they had pure black energy particles flowing through them. These particles were the Void Element itself.

Combining all of these, Ray used Sirius's attacking technique as he started to alternate between clawing and slashing the Void Beast using his gauntlets.

"Zhing… Swishh… Zhing"

Ray continued to attack as large lacerations appeared on the Void Beast as the fire and lightning caused the main damage while the Void Element restricted the Void Beast.

Therefore, the Void Beast had no choice but to lie on the ground and suffer from the continuous attacks.

While Ray continued to attack the Void Beast, he forgot about the fact that there was a time limit to his bloodline weapons.

Therefore, with the consumption of bloodline energy, his attacks lost their efficacy as a terrible pain coursed through his arms.

"Arghhhhhh!!"

Ray stopped attacking and backed away as he cried at the top of his lungs. Looking down at his arms, he noticed the weapons disappearing while underneath, he noticed his blood vessels rupturing one by one.

Seeing this, Ray realized that he had crossed the time limit and the pain was caused by the excessive use of the weapons.

However, the pain or rupturing of his blood vessels wasn't the most worrying aspect of this as something even more dangerous thing awaited Ray.

The thing was the Void Beast, as it abruptly opened its eyes and stood. The creature looked at Ray with immense blood thirst as its murderous intent engulfed the surroundings.

"Fu*k!! I am doomed," Ray muttered as he saw the Void Beast looking at him as if the grim reaper itself.
