Supreme Magus novel Chapter 718

Two more beams departed from Jiira’s eyes while he was slamming against the back wall, taking Lith by surprise. Both rays struck at Lith’s heart with enough strength to make him bounce off the floor, filling it with cracks, and then crash against the metal door.

Jiira had used pure mana to attack, giving the beams the same energy of a speeding truck in exchange for the lack of any piercing ability. The results were nothing to scoff at. Jiira had clearly heard the human’s bones shatter not only when he had been hit by the beams, but also every time Lith had struck a hard surface.

The small pool of blood forming under Lith’s head was a clear sign of how deadly the Odi’s aim had been. Jiira could sense the enemy’s life force fading, so he focused on the Body-Swapping device to make sure that it had sustained no damage.

A snapping sound was all that warned him of the impending danger. Somehow, the Ranger was inside the God’s Will array again, with his silver clawed hand aimed at Jiira’s brain.

The Odi stepped back, emitting energy beams from both his eyes and hands, but Lith was fast enough to crouch down in time to dodge them. Then, he used his hands to deflect the opponent’s to the side and his head to struck upwards at the Odi’s chin, sending all of his ray against either the floor or the ceiling.

Jiira rage exploded when he tasted his own blood invading his mouth, something that had never happened to him, not even during the great war. Two more beams, this time made from the fire element erupted from his open palms, striking respectively Lith’s head and heart.

Jiira could now see the reason why his opponent had managed to survive this far. A split second before the impact, Lith’s whole body was covered by Orichalcum, which had absorbed part of the impact.

The two new rays were strong enough to push the metal liquid aside and reach their target. Even though their trajectory had been deflected by the Skinwalker armor’s energy field, a smell of barbeque spread throughout the room as half of Lith’s face evaporated.

The blood from his wounds generated a spray of red fog while his body crashed against the metal door again before sprawling on the ground

\u003c "Stay down, dammit!"\u003e Jira said while unleashing several bullets of darkness magic to destroy the enemy corpse.

Much to his surprise, the corpse wasn’t a corpse. A simple wave of Lith’s hand deflected the bullets. Out of habit, Jiira had used fist magic again, but outside the God’s Will array the dark projectiles had returned to be just a very powerful cantrip.

Lith’s body floated in mid-air allowing him to stand up, also revealing the flesh and muscles of his face regenerating at a speed visible at the naked eye, until no trace of the wound was left.

\u003c "That’s impossible! Humans cannot have achieved an immortal body before the Odi!"\u003e Jiira refused to believe his own eyes. He knew about the existence of Awakened ones, but he had no idea what exactly their powers were.

Hence, he wasn’t aware that each time Lith was about to be struck, instead of tensing up and clenching his teeth, he simply took a deep breath with Invigoration. That would make the healing process start even before a wound could be opened.

The destructive power of each energy beam had been greatly reduced because Lith’s tissues and bones healed so fast that the beams had to damage each layer of his body multiple times before managing to go deeper.

Jiira wasn’t a Golem. With each second of his stupor, he allowed Lith who was insensitive to pain thanks to darkness fusion to breathe regularly.

With every breath, his body healed. With every breath, his strength returned.

A snap of Lith’s fingers made all of the chains restraining the prisoners open in unison, plunging the room into chaos. No one cared about how Lith had done it, the only thing they wanted was to get out of there.

When Lith had arrived, Quylla had hoped to be able to fight by his side, but the two clashes she had just witnessed were more than enough to make her understand that whatever the Odi was, it was beyond her capabilities. _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}
