Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1359

Chapter 1359 - The Power of Blood (Part 1)

The tendrils picked up the bits of Lith’s flesh and blood that lay around while light magic pieced them together like a puzzle before reattaching them to their place with minimal consumption of his vitality.

At the same time, the tendrils also extracted the nutrients from the ground and the water from the air to reduce the burden on Lith’s body to the minimum. He would still be very hungry, but that was a familiar feeling that didn’t make him weaker, only angrier.

"No, you don’t!" Qisal managed to stop his fall while Lith was still tumbling and compressed the muscles of his legs like a spring before leaping in the air. Second Wind was still active, allowing him to reach Lith before he could draw a single breath.

Or so the Wyvern thought until strong hands grabbed his feet, calves, t.h.i.g.hs, and tail, turning his jump into a face-first dive onto the ground.

Qisal hated to waste precious time, but he needed to understand what was happening. He thought that the Guardians had stepped in to stop the fight, yet what he witnessed was the result of his second mistake.

Spreading Lith’s blood around wasn’t a good idea. Not after Kolga.

The spurts of black flames had aimlessly seeped into the ground until Lith had fed them with his earth, fire, and Spirit Magic, turning them into Demons of the Lava.

The spirits of the dead that always followed him now inhabited the molten rock, giving it the appearance of Wyrmlings whose eyes brimmed with emerald light.

The Wyvern roared his fury, unleashing a storm of Origin Flames to get rid of those pests. No matter how scary they looked, all Demons fed upon Lith and couldn’t exceed his strength.

Thanks to Life Vision, Qisal could gauge the amount of energy they were comprised of. The creatures would pose a threat to him only if he allowed them to swarm him.

Alas, Lith knew it as well.

The Wyvern tanked the damage from the Demons and his own Flames, relentlessly resuming Lith’s chase, but it was too late.

Mother’s Embrace, the healing spell named after Elina, had already finished regenerating Lith’s four wings in a blaze of emerald flames. The new limbs were still upside-down, yet covered in red-veined black feathers.

Qisal expected Lith to run away and stall for time, but he charged forward instead, carried by his new wings.

’There’s no point in running away.’ Lith thought. ’If I create an opportunity to use Invigoration, Qisal will use it as well and we would just go back to square one. I am the only one with spells at the ready and the mana to use them whereas he is injured.

’It’s a small advantage but it’s all I have!’

The emerald flames that had regenerated his wings had also spread to his eyes and outside the dome, painting the eyes of the Phoenixes green as well. They wouldn’t clap their hands until the match was over, but they stomped their feet on the ground to cheer for their brother.

The Dragons did the same, chanting with the Phoenixes one word.
