Chapter 391: Living Weapons To The Rescue
-----
"Sect Master, the Shadow Beast emerged in the back of the building, there was another army that came from a completely different direction!" said one of the elders.
"E-Eh?! My Clairvoyance never saw them… How could they hide from it?! And there"s a whole other army… what will we do then? We are already barely managing here…! d.a.m.n it! The people…" muttered Lady Winter Lotus, as she looked back while her dragon and her spirits battled against the army of Shadows.
"We need to separate, to split ourselves!"
"We have to go help them…!"
"But if we go, we won"t be able to hold on in here, you fools!"
"But what else can we do-"
BOOOMMM!!!
However, an explosion came from the back of the sect as everyone saw a flash of bright azure light falling from the skies!
"W-What is that?!"
Lady Winter Lotus looked into the distance using her Clairvoyance, as she saw a sharp spear made of pure ice piercing a gigantic shadow wolf, the impact of the attack also killed the other shadow beasts around it, leaving the spear incrusted in the ground.
It emanated a strong presence as if this thing was some sort of living, legendary weapon! The aura it held was of pure bloodthirst, but also it held wrath!
"A strange spear? Who threw it?" she wondered.
Crack…!
However, the spear quickly cracked the ground open and freed itself from being incrusted there, flying in midair, the entire weapon was doing surreal things n.o.body has ever seen a weapon alone do!
It quickly began to rotate around, as it started to slay through the initial wave of shadow beasts, piercing them and making them all explode into black smoke, while the spear exuded a bloodthirsty azure aura! in mere seconds, a dozen of shadow beasts fell to their demise1
CLASH!
However, another giant weapon suddenly fell from the sky, as if the G.o.ds had decided to aid the sect!
This time, it was a ma.s.sive longsword so big and wide it could barely be called a blade, many would think it was just a plate of ice…
"A-Another?!"
It hasn"t even been half a minute as this gigantic blade floated in midair and began to spin around, like a giant catastrophe, it broke through the army of shadow beasts, slaying dozens of them in seconds, and pushing them back with blasts of magic as well.
The two moving weapons conjured magic and techniques of their own, as their bodies were encompa.s.sed in Mana and unleashed a series of attacks. Countless sharp projectiles made of ice fell over the shadow beasts continuously, while the techniques they combined together slashed through the beasts as well, releasing powerful sharp and slicing shockwave attacks, even the might of beasts emerged in them as if phantoms of the beasts these weapons had slain emerged with each of their attacks…
The elders looking at the scene were left speechless, the people were able to escape back inside the walls, as these two weapons alone pushed the beasts back to where they came from!
However, the beasts quickly began to encircle them once more, as they ignored the weapons and began to crawl up into the walls. The weapons began to slay them, throwing them off, but two couldn"t fight a hundred, sooner or later they would end up opening a blind spot! The elders quickly aided into this, filling the gaps left behind by the weapons, but the might of these Rank 3 Shadow Beasts was surprising, even more, when another giant snake emerged from the woods, surprising the entire battlefield!
"GRRYYYSHAAA!"
The ma.s.sive 30-meter big snake with a head the size of an elephant looked down at the battlefield as its single aggressive hissing provoked a powerful reaction in the beasts, spreading its entire essence and enhancing the power of the shadow beasts greatly. Their power was boosted, their size increased, and their long-ranged attacks became more explosive and bigger!
Ma.s.sive bear-shaped, wolf-shaped, and leopard-shaped shadow beasts began to break through their way to the walls once more, firing their deadly explosive projectiles at the Elders atop them while trying once more to crawl their way up!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The two weapons followed quickly after as they began to slay these bigger beasts, but more started to emerge, and it has only been two minutes since they came here!
The ma.s.sive snake unleashed a deathly aura, as it was being ridden by another dark shadow sect member, looking at the scene while being covered in black leather clothes… it resembled a giant ninja in a way.
As things were getting harder to deal with even with the help of these mysterious living weapons, a ma.s.sive rain of icebergs as hard as metal began to fall from the skies!
Indeed! Each iceberg was as big as ten meters, and there were dozens after dozens of them, falling over the ma.s.sive armies of shadow beasts from both sides as if the clouds above were protecting the people...
But this was in fact conjured by something they couldn"t see as it hid rather well, a ma.s.sive ice fortress of an incredible size… it conjured magic just to aid them, utilizing its ma.s.sive artificial core overflowing with great amounts of mana…
"W-What is this?!"
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
The ma.s.sive rain of boulder-sized icebergs continues to fall asunder as the shadow beasts were defeated one by one in loud explosions, the armies once more took a big hit! The Dark Shadow Sect Members were left speechless, there was really a third party getting involved in this, and they were attacking from the skies?!
"Who are they?! H-How are they attacking from the very skies? Is there a Wind Attribute user there?!" said one of the dark shadow sect members that mounted the large Lesser Shadow Jormungandr confronting the Lady Winter Lotus…
"We almost didn"t make it, good thing I threw my weapons here." Said the voice of a young man, as everyone else stopped in time to look at the glorious figure of a youthful ice giant descending from the skies!
