Neo covered his sword in Death Essence and stabbed upward.
The dark aura shot through the body of the wall guardian Nyxtharion. It came out the other side while doing internal damage.
The dragon stumbled, and the Infinite Void Prison preparation was interrupted.
But that was all.
It recovered, thanks to its exceptional vitality.
Neo moved away before the dragon could use Space Lock. From what he saw, Infinite Void Prison’s entrance was like a portal.
They would have to throw Neo inside it.
As long as he was not caught by Space Lock, they wouldn’t be able to imprison him within the Infinite Void Prison—
Neo’s thoughts were cut short when the Space Lock—far stronger than before—sealed the entire place.
[Space Lock (Rank: Stage 2, Mastery: Supreme) +0.1%]
The Space Lock was Supreme Mastery, unlike the Savant mastery one they used before.
’Fuck. These bastards can make the Space Lock stronger if they work together.’
Neo could not move.
He could see the three wall guardian Nyxtharion focusing together.
Thousands of meters of area were sealed by Space Lock.
They kept him imprisoned by strengthened Space Lock and slowly started to create a new Infinite Void Prison.
"This is the end for you."
The dragons picked up the sealed space along with Neo and threw it toward the entrance of Infinite Void Prison.
Mimicked River of Time. Mimicked Tyrant.
Neo was back to the beginning.
"I need a plan to defeat the wall guardian Nyxtharions. My attacks are almost entirely ineffective against them."
The dragons must have a few powerful attacks.
Yet they did not use them, knowing Neo could copy the techniques and use them against them.
"I can copy Voidfang Rain and Space Lock if I bait them. Voidfang Rain is especially easy to copy. All I need is to let my Intent Clones get hit.
But I’m pretty sure they have a defensive measure against Voidfang Rain, seeing as how it was the only Spell they showed even while knowing I can copy it."
Neo wondered what kind of defensive Spell they had against Void.
Suddenly, a thought came to him.
"Maybe… maybe they think I can’t copy Void.
I haven’t used any Void techniques in front of them. They probably believe my mastery of the element is low, and I can’t copy the Spells of the Void element."
That was worth checking.
Still, chances were high he would fail.
The three-second time limit was up, and several smaller Nyxtharion rushed toward Neo’s location.
This time, Neo focused on devouring as many smaller Nyxtharion as possible.
He used the hivemind to sense their location and attacked them.
[Adamant Aegis (Rank: Stage 1, Mastery: Adept → Expert)]
"Just as I thought, the mastery increases when I devour multiple beings with the same Spell."
He moved through the underground network of tunnels at his top speed.
[Adamant Aegis (Rank: Stage 1, Mastery: Expert → Savant)]
[Adamant Aegis (Rank: Stage 1, Mastery: Savant → Supreme)]
[Adamant Aegis Spell has been mastered.]
[One of your Spells copied in Abyss Mirror has reached Supreme mastery.]
[New function unlocked.]
[Merge Echo: You can overlap fully mastered techniques and raise their rank.]
As soon as the ability appeared, Neo instantly stopped devouring the dragons in front of him.
Since this was an Abyss Mirror ability, the technique’s rank would not increase by devouring them but by copying them.
He dismissed Obitus and entered melee with fists.
[Adamant Aegis (Rank: Stage 1, Mastery: Savant → Supreme) +0.4%]
[Adamant Aegis (Rank: Stage 1, Mastery: Supreme) total: 100% → 100.4%]
The new ability was groundbreaking.
Neo was gaining copy percentage even after the technique was fully mastered.
If he believed the Abyss Mirror, the technique would rank up after the copy percentage reached 200%.
’This….’
’I can get a way to damage the wall guardian Nyxtharions if increasing rank is possible.’
In truth, Neo had one Spell—only one—that could damage the wall guardian Nyxtharion.
[Ragnarok Exhalation Dragon Breath (Rank: Stage 3, Mastery: Expert)]
The Ragnarok Exhalation Dragon Breath was powerful.
But it took 3-5 seconds to activate.
Too long.
He needed abilities that could be activated instantly.
Of course, if he increased the Spell’s mastery, the activation time would decrease.
But he had already devoured almost fifty Nyxtharion, and the Spell’s mastery had yet to increase even once.
’The growth speed is low, probably because it’s a high-ranking Spell.’
’It doesn’t matter though. If my plan works, I won’t need the breath attack.’
Neo caught a small Nyxtharion.
He cut its legs and wings.
"How dare you insult me like this, vermin! How dare you!" the dragon glared at him with hatred.
"You really have the vitality of a cockroach."
Neo jumped and climbed over the dragon.
Only 30 seconds were left before a wall-guardian Nyxtharion came. He had to hurry.
"What are you trying to do, vermin—" freewebnσvel.cøm
