35 Abyssal Beas (2/2)
”One more blow like that and I'm done! I have to be extremely careful...”
Rainer said as he returned to the fight.
As they faced each other again, Yren kicked Rainer's face, who quickly rolled to dodge Yren's hatchet blow.
When Rainer was next to Yren, he summoned Lerna!
”Lerna!”
After his shout, a four metre long serpent appeared from his astral door!
Apparently, his demon bloodline awakening also affected Lerna, her size increased and her fangs shone like diamonds, showing their hardness and sharpness!
Lerna rushed at Yren, twisting him in a flash!
Crackle!
Pieces of the black armor began to fall off due to the pressure exerted by Lerna, but after falling to the ground, they began to reform!
”Let him go, Lerna!”
Rainer quickly warned Lerna about her danger, but it was too late!
The black mass became a spear that quickly pierced Lerna!
Ssss!
Lerna hissed in pain as the mass attempted to drift into her flesh and devour her!
Thankfully, Lerna was able to free herself from the grip of the black mass and returned to Rainer's side.
”Are you all right?”
Rainer asked, worried.
”...”
Lerna seemed to nod to Rainer's question, but only he knew that she had been seriously injured, after being pierced, the black mass left behind a corrosive energy within!
After being liberated from Lerna's grasp, Yren rose from the ground.
His figure could barely be seen in all that dark mass, in the waves of the mass, one could see parts of Yren's body from time to time.
”...!”
The head of the clan immediately rose from his seat at the sight of that terrifying scene!
”A spiritual sacrifice!”
”Hum!”
All cultivators could not help but be surprised, Yren had made a spiritual sacrifice!
Spiritual sacrifice, as its name indicates, was a forbidden technique in which a cultivator would sacrifice his spiritual energy for a higher power!
This technique was only used in life or death situations and even so, not everyone dared to learn it! Even worse, in the case of Guardians, using this technique would not ignite your spiritual energy, instead you would sacrifice your spiritual beast to summon an abyssal beast!
No Guardian dared to make such a sacrifice unless one had the most powerful of his enemies right in front of him!
”Yren has lost his senses! Stop him right now, before his spirit is completely devoured!”
The shout of the Grand Elder made them all come back to themselves, instantly, numerous guards of the Lorren clan rushed into the arena to capture Yren.
