Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 1195: Nexus Battle 3

It was an undeniable fact that the Half Moon magus was stronger and faster than him. Even with his strongest bloodline transformation and buffs, Emery still couldnʼt defeat him.

And now, adding that with an item capable of interfering with his space magic, and stop him from Emeryʼs chances of winning went dropped to another low.

The dark elf magus once again formed the sword aura into his arms, coalescing a dark blade that seemed capable of cutting through anything.

Waving his lethal hand around, he said, ”Which will it be this time? Light? Darkness? Or both? What will you show to defeat me?”

To his surprise, Emery stored his dark sword. However, it didnʼt mean he plan to fight barehanded. Instead, he kept the Lightsaber in his hand.

His body then began to rapidly transform, turning into his strongest [Twilight Transformation].

His physical body enlarges, with dark fur covering all four of his limbs. His hair turned completely white, while an eye-catching tattoo appeared under his eyes, followed by the innate ability that bestowed his dual core significant enhancement.

Howlll!!

With his enhanced spirit core, Emery activated the Lightsaber in his right hand. At the same time, Twik jumped and landed on his left arm before transforming, crawling and entangling itself tight.

When all preparation was done, Emery looked at the dark elf magus with a smile and said,

”Thank you for waiting. As for your question, Iʼm sure you will not be disappointed!”

Utilizing the overflowing power within the Lightsaber as the trigger, Emery created a burst of light element energy within his nature core and swiftly channeled it into his left arm, or rather, his little creature Twik.

In an instant, a storm of brilliant light appeared as the skill was successfully cast.

[Plant Mastery – Fusion]

This was the skill that Emery had a difficult time with, as he had previously only been able to use it with the help of Primordial Wisp. But now, after the relentless training, he went through at the Light Institute, he could finally do it on his own.

The dark wolf fur on his left arm was completely covered by the root body of Twik, as it continued to grow larger. It didnʼt take long for it to completely cover up to his shoulder, and continued all the way, making its way to his left chest.

In that moment, a powerful surge of power coursed through his entire body.

[You successfully formed a partial fusion]

[Battle power has increased exponentially]

[Nature spirit energy enhanced]

The sensation of unstoppable power sent out indescribable excitement that Emery couldnʼt help but let out a loud roar.

”Arrgghhhh!!”

[Emery Ambrose]

[Battle power: 280 (474)]

On top of the 64 points of [Immortal Gate – stage 6] and the 70 points of [Twilight Transformation], the skill brought about another addition of 60 battle power, which turned him into one of, if not, the strongest rank 9 acolyte in the universe.

Staring at the dark elf magus, Emery bared a broad smile and said, ”I am ready!”

The overwhelming display of power Emery showed evidently caught the dark elf off guard, so much to the point that the thought of regretting his decision to let him transform crossed the magusʼ mind.

”A mere Rank 9 with such power!” Emery noticed the gaze the dark elf magus gave him changing, and this was evidenced by the words the latter spoke next.

”You are a threat to our future! I have to bury you in this place once and for all!”

Disregarding the words that laced with killing intent, with his Lightsaber and Twikʼs Root Shield on his hands, Emery stomped the floor. His figure disappeared from where he was standing, shooting towards the magus at breakneck speed. 𝔯äN𝐨ᛒΕŜ

BAAAMMM!!!

Blocking the incoming strike, The magusʼ body was thrown backward. His feet skidded across the floor against his will and he only managed to stabilize himself after passing the dozen-meter mark, but not without spitting out a mouthful of blood.

It was at this moment that Emeryʼs figure once again appeared in front of him. He attempted a retaliation, but the former reacted swiftly. The swordʼs aura was stopped by the Root Shield before it could pierce its wielderʼs flesh.

CRACKK!!

The dark translucent blade was able to make a deep scratch before Emery swung his right arm, sending the dazzling weapon unto the magusʼ chest.

Spllaaatt!!

The attack was evidently a direct hit, carving a wound on the magusʼ body as blood splattered on the ground. However, Emery knew that this was far from enough if he wanted to take down his opponent.

”One more time!!”

He didnʼt give the magus even a sliver of a chance to take a breather from his shock as the sword in his hand once again made an arc in the air. It came down with much more ferocity and intensity.

Spllaaatt!! Spllaaatt!!

Despite being overwhelmed by Emery, the dark elf magus tried his best to counter using his Sword Mastery skill. Unfortunately, his efforts were thwarted by the formerʼs Root Shield. It also didnʼt help that his opponentʼs sword had a longer reach than his Blade Arm. A difference that proved to be fatal in this matchup.

Realizing that he would not win with just his dark blade alone, the magus decided to try something and cast his most dependable spell, summoning the dark metal chains into the fray. He hoped its inclusion would bring changes and help him close the advantage he lost.

Alas, Emery once again rendered his efforts fruitless as he was able to neutralize the chains with his [Jade Root] spell, whose strength now had been greatly enhanced by his [Fusion] skill.

At this point, it was clear that the magus was cornered. He leaped high into the sky, thinking that with the limitations of his cultivation realm, even if Emery could follow him, he wouldnʼt be as much mobile in the sky.

Within seconds however, the magus realized he was mistaken and only to be taken back by the pair of bright wings on his back,

Splaattt!!

A rain of sword slashes traveled and landed on the dark elf magus, inflicting more wounds upon his body. The unrelenting assault that Emery carried out had forced the magus to dodge away miserably for his dear life.

”Argghh!! This is annoying!!”

Overwhelmed with rage as well as humiliation, the dark elf magus took out a piece of metal device. Attaching it onto his chest, he then stopped in his flight and turned to glare at Emery with a hateful look.

”Be proud, human! You now have the chance to see and fight me in my full strength!!”

In an instant, the dark metal expanded from his chest and covered the magusʼ entire body from top to bottom, leaving only a gap for the eyes. It was apparent that what the device was – full-body armor that was an outcome of ingenuity, resulted from the combination of spirit force and technology which allowed its wearer to gain a boost of another level altogether.

Emery was actually pumped up by the new look the magus took on. He genuinely wanted to see how much his current strength would match the so-called full power. However, his attention was distracted by a reminder of the time he has.

[8 minutes until the stargate recharged]

Emery was anxious when he read the number. Alas, when he was thinking of going over and helping Julian and the others, his eyes caught the gaze the dark elf magus was giving him.

It seemed his duel with the magus wouldnʼt be able to end in a short few minutes, which meant at the moment he could only hope that his three friends would succeed to stop the stargate.

”We are counting on you guys!”
