Chapter 278: One Guardian Down! (1/2)
Swoosh!
The Sand Elemental stands towering in front of them like a giant, its four arms are bulging with muscles and it increases the energy that is coming out of the Sand Elemental.
Because of this sudden appearance, Kyran, Delta, and Adhara stopped their fights.
The half-beat big cats also step back from the fight while they're distracted by the changes on the Sand Elemental.
One might think that they need to finish off their prey lest it bite them from the back.
But the Sand Elemental that is glaring towards them is like a magnet that attracts their attention, but the attraction comes from their danger sense.
Rex scans the Sand Elemental before he gritted his teeth.
'Its stats have increased dramatically, especially its strength that reaches 900!', Rex thought as he lightly pull Adhara to his back in worry.
The situation might just get out of hand.
Now that he reached the sixth rank, Rex thought that his power can easily beat the guardians of the Carabidis Temple since he can even beat the raven before who almost reached the mid realm.
But turns out the Sand Elemental in front of him is way stronger than he thought.
'It's not night, I need to transform', Rex thought as he looks at the Sand Elemental.
He then glance at Kyran and Delta before he shouted, ”Stay close! This one is going to be a hard one to take down”
Hearing this, Kyran and Delta wanted to get close but then,
The Sand Elemental suddenly raises all of its arms up as the sand around this place got pulled to them, Rex can feel the amount of energy that the Sand Elemental gathered.
”SPLIT!”, Rex shouted completely retracting his words back.
Just after he shouted that the Sand Elemental swings all of its arms down as the four of them jumped away to dodge it.
KABOOM!!!
With the added strength, the Sand Elemental created a huge crater on the ground.
The shockwave is so astonishing that Rex and the others got shot away unable to withstand it, even the mutated animals around got hit and sent crashing away.
After they recovered, Rex and the others widened their eyes in shock.
Because of the slam from the Sand Elemental, the huge crater spans throughout the Carabidis Temple except for the places around the temple that is covered with an energy barrier.
Aside from that, all of the places got cracked as the walls rumble.
”We're going to fight that? Its strength is terrifying”, Adhara commented from the side.
Getting hit by one of the Sand Elemental attacks will definitely crush their bodies and result in death, even their Werewolf hardened body and bones can't withstand that.
Rex gritted his teeth before his body makes a cracking sound.
Crack!
The three of them saw Rex's body transform into a full-fledged Werewolf, his aura shot to the sky as his transformation completed.
Horns that stick out of his head and his fangs made him look vicious.
After turning into his Werewolf form, the others started to feel some sort of aura that makes them hard to look at Rex with their eyes.
It appears out of nowhere, and they can't describe the feeling they had now with words.
When they look at Rex, it's like they're looking at a Mythical being and they're afraid that looking at him with their eyes will soil Rex's presence.
This happened to Kyran and Delta, not Adhara though who have no trouble looking at Rex.
Rex in his Werewolf Form glance at the Sand Elemental with his dagger eyes making the Sand Elemental flinch, it's the presence that startled the Sand Elemental.
ROAR!!
With a loud roar that reverberated to the surrounding, Rex then dashes towards the Sand Elemental like a beast.
His razor-sharp claws glisten as he activated his Claw of Tormentor skill.
Looking at this, the Sand Elemental didn't sit still as a huge shield made of sand materialized before it used the shield to counter Rex's attack.
CLANG!!
Their clash makes a clanging sound as Rex felt his claw tremble upon impact.
Using his skill also can impact the Sand Elemental,
It's clear that the strength still goes to the Sand Elemental, but the Sand Elemental didn't come out of it unscathed as the shield it makes got destroyed by one swing.
After testing the waters, Rex kept attacking like a maniac.
The pain that stacked on his claws got ignored as he keep swinging his arms, he even added a Sky Rupture spell in the midst of his fight to overwhelm the Sand Elemental.
Many sparks were created because of their slash,
Rex's movements are fast while the Sand Elemental stays on its spot while blocking and counter-attacking with its four arms.
From the looks of it, Rex is having a hard time penetrating its defense especially with the four arms that has quite a bit of reflex.
While this is all happening, Kyran's mouth is wide open as he saw the fight.
It's the first time he saw the full transformation of Rex, and the power within him that is threatening to erupt makes him completely in awe.
But Adhara on his side snapped out of her daze as her eyes blazed with purple fire.
Although the Sand Elemental is way stronger than her, it's not that she's completely helpless in front of the Sand Elemental since its movement is rather slow.
Swoosh!
Fire comes out of Adara's palm as she started to fly towards the Sand Elemental.
Purple Fire Mana gathers on her body as she chanted heavily while blazing with purple fire, the ground beneath the Sand Elemental started to burn ablaze, ”Great Spell! Fire Maelstorm!”
BOOM!
The ground exploded with endless purple fire that engulfs the Sand Elemental entirely.
”RAARGHH!”, Adhara shouted as she pours all of the mana she can gather in this attack, the Fire Rune also glowed brightly that it even burns Adhara because of how much mana she tried to gather mana.
But as expected, her fire didn't do much damage aside from distracting the Sand Elemental.
Rex saw this is all happening before he stopped and channels the Black Lightning in his body, the amount of mana that he gathers completely exceeds any of his previous attacks.
The sword that he used to fight the raven cracked under his immense mana.
This time, Rex will try to use his entire body as a vessel to contain the mana that even a fourth rank weapon can't handle.
'Devo, help me out!', Rex said while gritting his teeth.
Hearing this, Devo was amused at how much mana that Rex is currently gathering thanks to Adhara's distraction, [All this mana to kill a Sand Elemental, Fine I'll help]
Right after Devo said that,
BOOM!
Rex's body explodes with black lighting as Devo imbued Spirit Energy to his black lightning.
It's like Rex's black lightning just got injected with steroid as it becomes thicker and more powerful, even the Sand Elemental feel the wind as it turns to Rex while getting blazed with Adhara's purple fire.
After amassing the maximum output of mana that he can gather, Rex raises his arms to the sky as he chanted, ”Great Spell! Sky Rupture!!”
CRACKK!
BOOM!s
BOOM!!
