Death… And Me

Chapter 311 - Finish Them!

Everything happened too fast. Neither Vio nor Sames had time to react to that. In fact, even if they wanted to, Rovan and Latalia wouldnʼt let them.

Nevertheless, Latalia was really surprised when she heard Roanʼs plan.

Back then, just when the Flag Protection Formation was put in place, she heard Roanʼs plan.

ʼRean and I will definitely get targeted by one of the Core and Soul Fusion Realm guys, most likely the Initial Stage one. However, Iʼm pretty sure we can kill him by ourselves. All I need is that you and Rovan donʼt let those Middle Stage Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivators intervene. As for those Core Formation Realm guys, I will let Ervan, Sian, and my Demon Beast hold them just for a few seconds.ʼ

Latalia, obviously, didnʼt believe that Roan and Rean could do that. After all, they were an entire realm of cultivation behind their opponent.

ʼOf course, I know that you donʼt think that we can do such a thing. However, those guys wonʼt let you run either. At the moment, you can only enter our boat or die alone in the sea. Besides, you will lose at most a few seconds following my plan. If it doesnʼt work, you can still use us as bait to run by yourself. Well, I donʼt think you have any chance of breaking through this Formation fast enough, though.ʼ

Roan then explained that he and Rean would pretend to be weak, waiting for the best moment to strike. It was only when she saw everything working like Roan said that she finally believed that they might be able to really do so.

The nine swords slashed Beal from every side. Dark and Light Elements cut through his Spiritual Energy barrier like butter. Especially when used together with Reanʼs White and Dark Stars, which were much stronger than ordinary Earth High-Level Weapons.

”Garrrhh!”

Beal could only let out a loud scream as his body was cut to pieces.

Vio was shocked by that. Soon after, he became enraged.

”Iʼll kill you!”

However...

”Hahaha! We just started playing, didnʼt we? Why are you leaving so soon?”

Why did Rovan get stronger than Vio? Obviously, that was because of Reanʼs Enhancement Skill. Before the battle started, Rean had touched Rovan, increasing his combat ability. However, Rovan didnʼt use it straight away. He held himself back as Roan initiated the feigning weakness plan on the move. Only when he saw that the twins would act again did he release his bodyʼs full strength, bolstered by Reanʼs Enhancement Skill.

Reanʼs skill wouldnʼt last long. At the Core Formation Realm, he was able to lock enough Light Element inside Rovan to last perhaps a minute. However, to a fight of this level, one minute was a huge amount of time.

The twinsʼ pretense plan only lost them around 30 or so seconds. As soon as Beal fell, their eyes turned in the direction of the Core Formation Realm cultivators.

Sure enough, as much as Sian could, Ervan kept retreating inside the Formation. They were already reaching their limits. It was thanks to Kentuckyʼs ridiculous feathers and scalesʼ defense that they survived this far.

*Creee!*

Once again, Kentucky spread his White and Black Flames, blocking the cultivatorsʼ path, trying to finish him and the other two.

”This dammed bird!”

It was then that they heard Samesʼ Spiritual Sense message.

ʼGive up the bird, go after the twins!ʼ

The guys were taken aback when they heard that. They immediately shifted their attention to Rean and Roanʼs battlefield, just in time to see Bealʼs several body parts falling on the ground. Soon after, Rean, Roan, and the two remaining clones charged at them.

”What?! How did they do that?”

”Who cares? Leave the bird, and those two trashes alone, kill the twins!”

All of them immediately turned around and charged at the twins as well. As much as Beal might be dead, the fact was that they could still feel Rean and Roanʼs cultivation. They were the same Initial Stage Core Formation Realm as before. The reason they didnʼt see what the twins did to kill Beal was that this place restricted Spiritual Sense. In their eyes, they probably used some trick to reach that result.

ʼUmbral Severing!ʼ

ʼPurple Sun!ʼ

ʼNorthern Cicada Awl!ʼ

ʼLimitless...ʼ

The twins also understood that there was no point in pretending anymore, so they went all out against the Core Formation Realm opponents.

ʼDeath Style, Second Form, Crescent Moon!ʼ

ʼDeath Style, First Form, Stellar Piercer!ʼ

ʼDeath Style...ʼ

*Boom, boom, boom, boom...!*

The attacks from both sides arrived almost instantly. However, Rean, Roan, and the remaining two clonesʼ attack still displayed a power equivalent to those nine Core Formation Realm cultivators.

”What?!”

”What kind of monsters are they?”

”Focus! Donʼt look down on them!”

Ervan, Sian, and Kentucky didnʼt let the chance slip. Since Rean and Roan could put the fight to a stalemate by themselves, what would happen if they joined?

Ervan and Sian gritted their teeth and bore with the pain of their injuries before throwing themselves into the fight. Kentucky was also injured, but he had used a lot of Spiritual Energy to help hold these cultivators back. Still, the Minokawa also threw itself into the fray. In fact, Kentucky was feeling extremely excited. He was becoming more and more used to his own power and abilities.

ʼMountain Piercer!ʼ

ʼExtreme Wind Slash!ʼ

Ervan and Sian had taken the front for the first time. With Rean and Roan grabbing the enemiesʼ full attention, they finally had a chance to help.

Seeing that, Rean and Roan mentally nodded.

ʼGreat!ʼ

Without another choice, two of the Core Formation Realm enemies could only separate from the main group to hold Ervan and Sian back.

Vio and Sames also saw the situation on their side, quickly changing their minds and tried to get away from Latalia and Rovan. However, how could those two not know what they were trying to do? So they increased the pace of their attacks even more, making sure that neither Vio nor Sames would have time to care about anything else.

Sian and Ervan on one side. Roan, Rean, and their two clones on the other. There was one missing.

When the enemies noticed that the demon bird hadnʼt attacked them as well, they immediately looked around, trying to find it. Too bad that Kentucky had disappeared. In fact, even Rean was taken aback by that. Thatʼs because just a moment ago, he saw Kentucky bending light to create a camouflage effect!

ʼThatʼs my skill! I demand copyright!ʼ

Roan felt like kicking this guy away.

ʼIf you have time for such bullshit, increase your number of attacks. Otherwise, the chickenʼs next attack wonʼt be as effective.ʼ

Of course, Kentuckyʼs skill wasnʼt as good as Reanʼs. Still, it was enough to get away from everyoneʼs sight for a moment. Well, Rean and Roan still knew exactly where it was due to their connection as masters.

*Creeeeeee!*

Suddenly, Kentucky reappeared above the Umbral Sect Core Formation Realm cultivators. His body descended from above like a meteor, his body covered in black and white flames!

Reanʼs eyes lit up, seeing that.

”Itʼs the Fried Chicken Cannonball Attack!”

Roan almost tripped when he heard that name. Since when did Kentuckyʼs attack have a name? And why would you call it like that? Well, Roan often called it a chicken, so he didnʼt have the right to complain.

The Umbral Sect cultivators had little time to react as Kentucky crashed against the ground.

*Boom!*

Black and White Flames soon spread together with a powerful wave of Spiritual Energy. Some of the Umbral Sect cultivators were blasted away, while others were able to somehow defend themselves. Kentucky had used an area attack, descending right in their midst. The Fried Chicken Cannonball was really mighty!

Sian, Ervan, Rean, and Roan didnʼt let the chance slip.

ʼDeath Style, Second Form, Crescent Moon!ʼ

ʼDeath Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!ʼ

ʼEarth Splitter!ʼ

ʼGreen Flash Wave!ʼ

*Boom, boom, boom!*

*swish, swish, swish!*

One by one, the Core Formation Realm cultivators of the Umbral Sect fell. The moment their numbers became lower than Reanʼs group, they immediately gave up the fight and turned around to flee.

”Seniors, save us!”

Vio and Sames were trying to help, but Latalia and Rovan were even using their bodies to stop them. Even though that put them in advantage in the battle, things would change when those monster twins joined the fray. It was evident that Rean and Roan could fight at the Core and Soul Fusion Realm level.

Vio and Sames quickly reached a decision through a Spiritual Sense conversation.

”Retreat!”

Vio shot in another direction as he extended his hand. Soon after, Spiritual Energy began to gather in his hands. He was trying to dissipate the Protection Formation for them to escape this place.

Roan, of course, noticed that.

”Hmph! Since you came, you might as well stay here... forever.”

Right after, several other flags flew from Roanʼs bag, heading towards the several exists.

Of course, Sames and Vio got shocked once again when they saw them.

ʼItʼs Gugoʼs Flags!ʼ

They werenʼt idiots. It was evident that the twinsʼ group killed Gugoʼs group before.

Sames and Vio noticed that they wouldnʼt be able to escape in time. Because of that, they gritted their teeth and completely ignored Rovan and Lataliasʼ attacks. Even if they get hit, that would be better than getting trapped inside the Formation. As for the Core Formation Realm members, they couldnʼt care about them anymore.

*Boom! Boom!*

Rovan and Lataliaʼs attack did indeed connect. However, Rovan was more experienced in the end. He understood Vioʼs intention and changed his aim. Instead of trying to deliver as much damage as possible, he attacked in a way that delayed Vioʼs movements.

”Noooo!”

*Shuwa!*

Finally, Roanʼs own flags activated their Protection Formation, trapping Vio and the remaining Core Formation Realm Cultivators inside. As for Sames, he didnʼt even turn back as he flashed away with his body bleeding everywhere.

Roan narrowed his eyes after seeing that.

ʼIn the end, Iʼm not used to these things. I took way too long to aim in the right places.ʼ

He then looked at Vio and the rest.

”Finish them!”
