Chapter 466: Showing Confidence (2/2)
The third, fourth and fifth Transcendents also exhibited different kinds of effects that were reminiscent of other Source Energy type properties, trying their hardest to not repeat their leader's mistakes.
However, being at Rank 2 Transcendent the other Source Energy type properties were at most only enhancing their main Pathway to a certain extent.
As soon as those wolves hit the Energy Chains I sent through the World's Will's Authority, they instantly disintegrated to Energy Particles, resulting in different kinds of backlash to their owners.
One of them instantly fell down like a kite whose strings got cut, the other ignited himself in green flames and immediately spun in an attempt to put it out.
Just like how they had different Transcendent Pathways, they also suffered different backlashes.
When those following them saw the brave ones' plight, at least half of them immediately turned back and entered their erected safe zone while the others who continued, did their own maneuver to try and dodge the Energy Chains that were aiming to restrict them.
”Retreat! That one has a weird ability to restrict us. We have to make the beacons and portals instead!”
One of them then shouted, disregarding their leader's command to go out and face us.
They were probably muddled earlier from the Ailment Fog resulting in them flying out even with their reluctance.
They were swift builders and that was evident by the Pillars they erected to create a zone devoid of Level 3 Earth Energy for them.
However, when I appeared before them, they stopped what they were doing and looked at what kind of native this world has. Due to that, they all fell victim to my Ailment Aura.
At this point, the Sword Skill that I unleashed didn't need my input anymore. With Nysia and her Sanguine Aegis assisting it, it would only be a matter of time before it reached the strongest enemy we're facing to date.
That guy, after sending his command and seeing Nysia sped up also stopped his overconfidence as he began exhibiting his Pathway Skills.
To fully support my wife, while I was watching the over 50 Rank 2 Transcendents play the game of tag against the Energy Chains with their red wolves, every buff and domain that I could cast were all simultaneously activated.
Naturally, the three women I concealed with the Void Concealment were also included before they left.
Domain of Valor. Bulwark of Invulnerability. Energy Zone. Enhancement Aura. Defence Reinforcement. Spirit Domain. Emperor Domain. Energy Storm. Void Zone. Legendary Support Domain
Partly ignoring the excessive burn in my Energy reserves to let these foreign Transcendents fear my prowess, I then split my attention to focus on siphoning more Energy from the seven worlds connected to me to offset it.
However, even if I did that, it's not enough to handle more than 10 Sustained Skills. If I also added Bedevilled Outburst, Energy Incarnate Transformation and Energy Amplification, the meager 100 thousand units of Energy I possessed would be burned quicker.
Either, this was something that needed to be done. We're outnumbered. The best we could do at the moment was to show them our confidence and intimidate them with it.
”But… the fog and…”
One of the Rank 2 Transcendents who retreated also hesitated to go back. The Ailment he suffered had just subsided, he was afraid that if he entered again, he'd suffer another Ailment.
”Idiot! What about the fog? Then stay here!”
The one who shouted for retreat flared up leaving behind that one Transcendent who was eventually wrapped around by the Energy Chains aimed at him
If one entered a disadvantageous battle with a scared expression, there's no doubt that one was doomed to lose.
But with this extreme confidence despite being outnumbered and weaker than their strongest soldier, they would start to wonder why are we confident and that would mess with their minds resulting in an upper hand in morale.
