Divine Path System

Chapter 1423 Destruction

The power of time flowed out of his palm like it was some laser beam. But instead of it hitting the enemy, the light covered himself.

Under the dumbfounded gaze of the warrior, his hammer passed 'through' Varian as if he was a ghost.

The warrior appeared on the other side, looking at the hammer with a dumbfounded expression.

However, cracks still appeared on Varian's skin and blood began to leak out. But compared to what a head on confrontation would've caused, this injury was far less serious.

"No!" Captain Jovian yelled, his face pale and eyes furious. "That's the power of time! He skipped the instance of attack!"

Varian didn't bother to reply.

If they were prepared before hand, it'd have been difficult for him to pull that off. Still, once reaching rank 7, the powers within an Avenue were mixing strangely well and also started showing great synergy.

"Take him down!"

All four members shot forward like lightning, reaching Varian in a blink.

But the space around the man and the hammer warrior distorted. The two were shifted to a distance place within the barrier.

"Wh-Who the hell are you? How can you have so many powers?!" The hammer warrior's helment was off, revealing a pretty woman. She's the youngest recruit and had the lowest mental resilience.

That's why she did something as stupid as expecting an answer from an enemy.

What she got wasn't an answer but a punch to the face that blasted her teeth off her mouth like they were rockets taking off.

Her heard buzzed like a cracker exploded besided her ears. The colorful vision filled with bright colors of individual auras went blank.

And then, the vitality flowing in her body was forcibly yanked by a foreign force. Her consciousness which was trying to stay awake was pushed into a deep sleep.

Varian immediately cut off his arm that's being corrupted by the foreign life essence. The severed arm took with it a share of aura, weakening him, as they planned.

What they didn't plan was his Death Giant powers.

The severed arm, from which he withdrew his own vitality, was now cut off its source and was considered dead.

The Death Giant powers acted on it showing no mercy. The arm was crushed into the most basic of materials and the foreign life essence in it was expelled.

Meanwhile, Varian used the woman overflowing with vitality, to heal his injuries and regenerate his missing arm.

The synergy between Paragon Body and Death Giant meant that he managed to use the vitality he could salvage from the severed arm for this process.

Even though the hammer she hit him with suppressed his recovery, he compensated the slow down by taking far more vitality than usual.

As a result, he was back in his peak form.

Not only that, the system's tried to ring, prompting him of his improvement.

[+100 XP]

[+100 XP]

[+100 XP]

But he shut them down and faced off the four members who were looking at him with a wary look.

"He must be a spy of the Jai Empire!"

The eyes of the four blazed with even more anger.

Maybe they were really trying to kidnap him before. Now, they wanted to kill him. Nothing more, nothing less.

"It's a trap! It's all a trap! This guy shouldn't even be Princess Isadora's brother-in-law! He's fooling everyone for some big conspiracy! We should kill him and save the kingdom!"

"For the fatherland!"

"Fatherland!"

Of course, Captain Jovian also knew he was spouting bullshit.

Varian didn't just show the power of time or space. He also displayed the powers of Order and Chaos. And they were actually even stronger than the other powers.

But in this tense situation, he couldn't think answers to such complex questions. He needed a simple reason to boost himself and his subordinates.

This guy being a spy of Jai Empire? That's perfect!

"Even if I die, I won't let the likes of you target my kingdom!"

"You scum who killed my mother!"

The two Paragon Body warriors dashed at him, with speed enough to run laps around the entire solar system.

Each of them were emotionally charged, intending to take him down even at the cost of their own lives.

Varian sensed this keenly. Instead of feeling depressed, an excited smile appeared on his lips.

At the same time, the Life Spirits channeled their life essence, creating a net to trap Varian and 'corrupt' parts of his body so that his own strength would work against him.

"Aren't you all a bit too enthusiastic?" Varian's body blurred and the time around him began to distort.

"Do you think it'll work again?"

The warriors of Pargon Body path sneered and swung their swords at one of the Varian.

Their attacks carried a huge mass of aura—the disruptor of all.

Due to the tremendous pouring of energy, even Varian's timeflow suffered.

Even though it seemed like he could erase some of the damage, he'd be taking more than half of the damage at least.

Then, he'd severely injured and could be easily killed.

…At least that's what should've happened.

When the swords broke through the distortion of space and time and finally reached him, they passed through empty space.

This wasn't an empty space created by 'skipping' the instance of attack like earlier. The location was literally empty.

"Above you!"

Captain Jovian's scream was a moment late.

Varian's sword lodged into a warrior's heart and his hand broke straight into another's head.

Even then, the two weren't directly dead and tried to struggle.

But like a human being stomping on a cockroach, he tightened his grip and dug his sword deeper.

The power of Death Giant flowed into the two warriors at the same time.

The overflowing vitality of the two warriors dissipated like a flame that's blown off by the wind.

Two of the last four fell without offering much resistance.?The remaining two, including Captain Jovian swallowed in fear.

But their extensive experience told them running away was certain death. So, gritting their teeth, they launched net of life essence against the dangerous enemy.
