YM778.TV Chapter 270
He unleashed a Dark Rizaki since Dark Magic was quite effective against those beasts, moreover, the Azure Dragon was already a thread away from death with half of his body pulverized thanks to flames, so there’s no way he’d survive this Rizaki, especially when its center is this close to him .
He slowly backed away as focused on the Black Turtle, which started acting the moment the darkness covered their vision . An intense green energy emanated from its scales and surrounded it and the Vermillion Bird, which, fortunately, was close to it .
As for the dragon, the turtle couldn’t pinpoint its location and could do nothing but try to resist what’s about to happen without acting recklessly .
For an attack to be able to block their view and entrap them like this, it was by no means a simple and weak one . They had special eyes and incredible senses yet they felt helpless when this world of darkness descended .
Seeing the lonely figure of the Azure Dragon as it spat a large ball of blue energy which transformed into a barrier around it, giving it a bit of relief .
The center of Rizaki couldn’t be seen by the entrapped dragon, which had no idea that the center of the explosion was merely a few meters under its body, no matter how strong his barrier was, it can’t resist a Rizaki from Arthur, especially after his intelligence stats increased to this degree .
Dark energy slowly and sneakily invaded the Divine Beasts body, no matter what they did, they couldn’t resist it or push it away . Even the black turtle seemed disturbed by this fact, it only reacted to this by strengthening the green barrier around itself and its comrade .
The Dark Magic that entered them was different from the material one, this acted as a poison, eating away the victim’s vitality and slowly consuming them . It has no effect on the Divine Beasts but it’s still a good way to divert their attention and scare them a bit .
The cold silence that accompanied this world didn’t remain for long, in a split second, the darkness was compressed into a single dot under the Azure Dragon and before it could act, an ear-deafening explosion occurred .
Arthur, who retreated a couple of kilometers away was still pushed away by the turbulent winds but apart from that, he wasn’t injured as he fully prepared himself and successfully resisted the impact .
Just like the red flaming rose, Rizaki did a fair job in obliterating the upper part of the Human Continent . As they were battling above the crack that went from the East to the West of the continent, it is no longer a continent but two pieces of land separated by a bottomless abyss filled with eternal fire .
Volcanos have started appearing all over the lower piece of the land, as for the upper piece, it started sinking as the sea covered the mountains and forests, swallowing everything in its way . Rizaki made matters worse as the explosion was so fierce that it pushed the two piece of lands away from each other, widening the abyss below and forcefully pushing the upper piece of land into the sea, letting it sink deep into the sea, never to be seen again .
The small flames tornados that were the remains of the red rose were scattered due to the violent winds and the raging sound waves which traveled long distances before they finally dispersed .
The three Divine Beasts, which were very close to the center of Rizaki, suffered the most . The space around them shattered and recovered again and again and the Azure Dragon, which was heavily injured from the get-go, was turned into nothingness before it could defend itself .
Its barrier was instantly shattered and it was erased from existence the moment the explosion happened . As for the turtle, it was extremely tenacious as its scales vibrated and release an energy which had a mix of green and yellow energy .
The reinforced green barrier around the two Divine Beasts started becoming smaller in size until it barely covered the Vermillion Bird and the black turtle .
The Barrier turned yellow in color and a strange mantra was engraved on each of its sides, one was a green mantra and the other was a yellow one . This wasn’t the end as the Vermillion Bird screeched loudly and spat a small fireball which crashed into the top of the barrier, transforming into a red mantra that was a bit smaller than the other two .
The barrier had a mix of three colors, which were harmonious and compatible with each other, every one of them strengthened the other, rendering this barrier almost unbreakable .
When the explosion occurred, the barrier was just finished yet despite that, the black turtle didn’t expect such a violent impact . The small barrier around them started showing multiple cracks as it was pushed away from their initial position . They couldn’t even stay still due to the pushing force from Rizaki, the cracks started deepening and appearing all over the barrier and the red mantra showed signs of vanishing as it started turning illusory .
This continued for a dozen seconds and before long, the barrier lacked its previous luster as it was filled with countless cracks as if a simple push from the wind would break it .
The world was no longer filled with darkness, only violent wind tornados and shattered space that recovered itself with a fast pace could be seen in this area . The sky had a humongous grey cloud that slowly spun around the Human Continent, or what remained of it, at least .
Inside this grey cloud, Arthur panted heavily as blood leaked from his mouth, he was currently facing the two Divine Beasts which gazed at him with apparent rage and anger . They were still hiding inside that cracked barrier, despite receiving the full impact from Rizaki, it still survived and maintained itself .
From the looks of it, it was repairing itself at a decent speed and if given enough time then it’ll surely go back to its original state . This was something Arthur didn’t wish for .
With the Azure Dragon gone, he only had two opponents left and although he was not in an advantageous position, he could still fight a bit more as his Nether Energy pool and his Mana pool weren’t empty .
Surprisingly, the turtle and the bird didn’t attack him, they remained inside the barrier, thinking that his attack wasn’t done yet . This bought him enough time to unleash his next attack, which may take some time .
Arthur put the shield on his back and raised his hand to the sky and closed his eyes, concentrating his Mental Power and injecting his Dark Mana into one particular skill .
’[Heavenly Arrow]!’
One of his signature skills, a deadly arrow that could be conjured from one of a few possible attributes . Its might is incredible and its speed is unmatched even by the White Tiger, presumably the fastest Divine creature .
One Heavenly Arrow may not be able to injure the black turtle and only deal slight damage to the Vermillion Bird but how about five Heavenly Arrows? Or ten of them?
Other speaks of quality over quantity but that’s not always the case . What if he could mass produce Heavenly Arrows without using [Blood for Blood] . With all his focus and Mental Power put on this skill, along with an absurd amount of Dark Mana, he imagined a skill similar to Lucy’s devastating meteor shower but this one had countless dark Heavenly Arrows .
A mind-numbing number that could finish these two pests once and for all . Obviously, to produce a thousand Heavenly Arrows is not possible but he didn’t wish for a number that high, even a hundred, in this case, could do the job .
Slowly but surely, Heavenly Arrows made of pure Dark Magic started appearing above Arthur, they were high-up in the sky, pointing downwards, exactly at the yellow barrier of the turtle .
One turned into five, five into ten and so on, in twenty seconds, this gloomy area which was surrounded by the humongous spinning grey cloud, was covered with Heavenly Arrows that were burning with dark flames .
Each with a length over thirty meters, emitting a suffocating pressure and an ominous aura . They had a weak link between them, one which boosted their penetrative power and speed . When the imagined skill was successfully finished, Arthur’s face became even paler, he spat a weird looking black blood and started shaking nonstop .

Arthur ignored the notifications and focused his remaining Mental Power to control the skill . Deafening whistling sounds were heard as a hundred Dark Heavenly Arrows fell from the sky, aiming at the yellow barrier .
The arrows had double the speed of a normal Heavenly Arrow, moreover, they left a trail of dark flames that burned the air around them and slowly crept their way to their targets as if they were alive .
Just as they were going to touch the barrier and penetrate it, a bright golden mantra appeared on the side of the barrier, repairing those cracks and strengthening it to an unimaginable degree . This was accompanied by a loud tiger growl that left Arthur astonished .
