While Iris was having her own fun time, Selena and the others were struggling against the alpha class alien.
Selena raised her hand and formed a blood spear. She tossed it toward the alien, but when it was about to reach the alien, the blood spear abruptly slowed down until it stopped. Then it turned around and flew back to her.
"!!!" Selena avoided it right away as she knew the power of the spear. The spear burst upon impact, devastating anything in the area.
Noelle and Alavenya closed in.
Noelle gathered her energy and swung her sword up. "Demonic Sword, Purgatory."
Her slash looked like it hit a barrier and disappeared.
"What?" Noelle thought her ability would work to a certain extent. She might not have a divine rule, but it was more than enough to injure an alpha class alien.
Yet, it did nothing. It was stopped so easily.
Alavenya also punched the alien. Her Dragon Fist was nothing like it was before.
Her energy erupted and the dragon roared like thunder. The impact was so powerful that it produced a shock wave so powerful that all the clouds in the area were dispersed.
But the result was the same as Noelleâs. Her blow was stopped because of a barrier.
"What is going on?" Alavenya widened her eyes in shock. "This is not supposed to happen."
"Watch out!"
The alien turned to Alavenya, extending its trunks to capture her.
Fortunately, Evelyn appeared next to her and formed a black hole. Unlike the other three, her black hole twisted the trunks. Parts of the mouths were ripped apart.
"!!!" The three girls couldnât help but wonder if they couldnât attack the aliens simply because they didnât have the divine rules.
"Are we useless? Is that what he wants to tell us?" Selena narrowed her eyes. Nathan wouldnât have the heart to tell them they were useless, so he might want to use the alien to tell them the harsh truth.
However, all three of them had their own gods accompanying them.
"Thatâs not true. You are so drunk in your power right now that you canât even figure out whatâs happening. Itâs true that the enemyâs power can be nullified by divine rule, but even you have a way to injure the alien." Nyx shook her head.
Bishamonten was saying the same thing to Noelle. "The opponent was using its divine rule against you, but did you notice that Selenaâs attack was returned to her instead of being stopped?"
Chiyou looked at the enemy before continuing, "You need to condense your power even more if you want to challenge these opponents. This is a good opportunity for you to learn this power. It will provide you with experiences to form your divine rules. Now, follow my lead."
Chiyou leaped forward. "Concentrate your power into your fist. Remember, nothing normal will be able to pierce through this oneâs defense. Thatâs why you need something stronger. Use your Dragon Fist one more time, but you need to pour your soul into it, literally. Let the dragon be alive."
Noelle frowned. She had a hard time understanding what he meant by "soul" until she saw Noelle approaching from the other side.
âSoul? Intent?â Alavenya widened her eyes. Noelleâs sword possessed intent. That was the teaching of her grandfather.
It was as if they were pouring their souls into their swords.
If that was what Chiyou meant by giving life to the dragon, she understood what she needed to do.
Alavenyaâs instinct had been honed since she was very young by the Dragon King. Her instinct was sharp, like that of a beast, allowing her to avoid my dangerous moments.
That was why she gave in to her instincts this time.
More and more energy flowed into the Dragon Fist as though the dragon wanted to devour everything.
However, the concentrated energy had increased multiple times.
Chiyou smiled and said, "Now, release everything. Together!"
Chiyou waved his massive battle axe. "Kingâs Blade. Heaven Sovereignty."
"Dragon Soaring Through the Heavens!" Alavenya muttered a name instinctively.
They hit the barrier that protected the alien again, this time cracking it upon impact.
"!!!" The alien was startled. Chiyouâs power aside, the alien didnât expect Alavenya to have the power to break its defense.
The axe strike flew toward the side of the alien with the dragon.
Roar!
The dragon soared up and passed through the alien.
Suddenly, the alienâs skin was pushed inward as the powerful impact burst.
Bam!
Cry!
The alien shrieked in pain. At the same time, another attack was coming from the opposite direction.
"Release everythingâyour anger, your existence, and your powerâinto your sword."
Noelleâs eyes turned bloodshot. She activated the power she had received a few weeks ago from the Asura.
The rage turned her energy into a blaze.
"Demonic Killing Sword," Noelle muttered.
Bishamonten smirked and gathered his power into his spear. "Divine Spear Technique."
"Entanglement."
"Raging Devil!"
They struck at the same spot.
Bishamontenâs spear turned into a beam that produced the same effect as Alavenyaâs attack, but bigger.
Noelleâs attack created a slit on the alienâs body like Chiyouâs axe. It might be smaller than Chiyouâs attack, but it was already close.
The alien was wailing in pain. These two, whom it thought wouldnât possess any threat, suddenly dealt so much damage.
However, Selena wasnât planning to lose either.
Selenaâs power erupted like a volcano.
"Thatâs right. Thatâs how you use your divine blood." Nyx smiled. "Then I will create an opportunity for you!"
Nyx pointed her palm toward the alien. The alien was trying to repel Nyxâs power, but the darkness that reached its barrier actually spread and shattered the barrier with ease.
"!!!" The alien was stunned.
"Blood Authority." Selena managed to gain a connection with the alienâs blood. Then, she clutched her hand as if she were squeezing something. "Perish."
Suddenly, the alien had its body bloated until it burst from the inside.
The blood and organs from within splashed as the alien was knocked back and lost the condition to fly.
There was no way to stop the attack or reflect it with its barrier if the power didnât even hit his barrier.
