Chapter 83: Chapter 83 Secret Sword Art: Rose Country!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the battle occurring amidst the clouds, each of Tien Kute’s tentacles seemed to possess independent consciousness, as if they were a harmonious ensemble of a dozen Weapon Masters simultaneously attacking the lone sword-wielding “Rose Sword Saint.”

The “Rose Sword Saint” lived up to their title, facing the tentacle assault with calm composure, transforming the sky into their stage, constantly flitting and striking, and from the perspective of a Sea Bird, severed tentacles could occasionally be seen falling from the sky.

There was no imagined world-shattering grandeur, only swordsmanship and martial arts honed through countless trials.

In fact, at their level, they had long understood that scattered power in group attacks couldn’t kill strong individuals of the same level. Gathering power entirely and reverting to basic, unadorned moves were key to victory!

Moreover, neither Tien Kute’s “Sea Monster” path nor the Rose Sword Saint’s “Knight” path were Extraordinary Professions skilled in magic. They possessed physical strength and Extraordinary Skills at the Extraordinary Peak level, sufficient to kill with such talents.

“Truly powerful!”

Through the eyes of the Sea Birds, Aiven was mesmerized, as Tien Kute wielded the “eighteen weapons” effortlessly but didn’t align with Aiven’s own path.

Taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Aiven’s eyes were fixed intently on the sword-wielding “Rose Sword Saint,” attacking, defending, and dodging; each seemingly simple yet subtly profound sword mark was imprinted in Aiven’s heart and concurrently recorded in “Data Visualization.”

To be honest, Aiven didn’t consider himself a novice to “Rose Swordsmanship,” but the moves executed by the Rose Sword Saint at this moment bore no trace of “Rose Swordsmanship” and were far beyond Aiven’s comprehension.

He could only forcibly memorize it for now to slowly understand it later.

The battle in the sky lasted more than ten minutes, overwhelming Aiven with a flood of intricate sword techniques, causing his brain to ache, yet the Sea Birds acting as “relay stations” felt nothing.

Top powerhouses in this world rarely fought for three days and nights like in stories, although at a certain level, the resilience and endurance of the Extraordinaries became exceedingly tenacious.

But by then, most of them were already absolute high ranks within various factions, as well as interest-driven individuals, unlikely to stubbornly insist on a fight to the death with their enemies.

Of course, fanatical followers of religious sects were exceptions!

No matter the high combat level, from Aiven’s experience, he could tell that after several probes, the battle was about to reach its climax soon, and regardless of the outcome, it would quickly come to an end.

Without a doubt.

Despite his bold words, it was clear that in this battle, Tien Kute was at an absolute disadvantage. Without extraordinary self-healing capabilities and good equipment, he would have already fled in panic by now.

However, he came with a mission and wouldn’t retreat so easily.

Rumble—-

Rumble—-

While Tien Kute was desperately attacking the “Rose Sword Saint” with tentacles, a new tentacle quietly extended from beneath his robe, grasping a weapon he hadn’t yet used: a blue-black long halberd made of coral!

As soon as the long halberd appeared, there was a sudden, earth-shattering thunder in the dark, abyss-like cloud sea high in the sky, with a flash of lightning on the halberd, as if echoing the thunder.

Sizzle!

“Ocean Treasure?” A soft gasp emerged from the crimson sword light.

Tien Kute ignored the Rose Sword Saint’s inquiry, accelerating the attack with other tentacles.

To forcibly compress the Rose Sword Saint’s range of movement, tentacles were severed every moment, but he was indifferent, immediately regenerating new tentacles from beneath the robe to grab fallen weapons and continue entangling with the Rose Sword Saint.

By now, most of his focus was on the blue halberd.

Soon, a dark blue-black light cluster, like the water of the Black Sea, burst from the halberd’s tip, transforming instantly into a beam and shooting into the black cloud sea.

“Hahaha, face your doom, meddlesome one!!!”

The atmosphere stirred, dark clouds roared with thunder, and the storm emitted a low wail. This “Ocean Treasure,” bestowed by the Mother of Sea Monsters Echidna, unleashed an apocalyptic power in the Black Sea, its home ground.

In the next moment, an unavoidable doom was about to descend!

Tien Kute’s ugly face was already filled with delight, as if he had already witnessed the tragic demise of his opponent.

Nonetheless, what he didn’t expect was that a sword light arrived before the doom!

“Secret Sword Art: Rose Country!”

The Rose Sword Saint, clearly holding the upper hand, was no novice on the battlefield; how could he allow Tien Kute to freely employ his tactics?

His eyes burst into blazing red light, as if countless phantasmal rose flowers bloomed silently behind him. The “Rose Sword Saint” uttered a low cry, raised his sword over his head, and slashed out!

The crimson sword light had no beginning or end, like a sun rising gently from the sea, brilliant and blazing, filling the sky and earth.

Clang—-

A move that came later but struck first!

“Moo roar—-!”

For a long time…

When Aiven’s eyes could finally perceive again, he saw that the blue-black beam Tien Kute had fired had disappeared, and amid a pained roar, a gigantic black shadow stirred the sea currents, fleeing rapidly from the depths.

The “Rose Sword Saint” stood with feet on the void, returning the sword to its sheath with a calm expression, showing no intention of pursuing.

Tien Kute seemed to be wailing miserably, but he was sure that the big fish hadn’t suffered lethal injuries; after all, the “Sea Monster” path’s most formidable trait was its massive form, not proficiency in one-on-one battles, and defeating a Sea God’s Son wasn’t something to brag about.

Had Tien Kute been prepared, it would have been easy to raise a tsunami to engulf a city, as one couldn’t judge the strength of Extraordinary Professions solely by wins and losses.

“Ah, look! The sky… is splitting?!!”

Aiven, who had been focused on the battlefield, suddenly heard a shout from the captain’s cabin and quickly withdrew his gaze, looking up.

Outside the porthole, it was still raining heavily, but the sky seemed to have been sliced by a sharp blade, revealing a neat crack several kilometers long. Golden sunlight poured through the severed thick clouds, like a rainbow bridge over the cloud sea.

Dazzling and brilliant!

Despite considering himself well-traveled and capable of looking down on the world’s bumpkins, Aiven had never seen such a scene in either his past or present life.

Moreover, unlike Edlin and his Chief Navigator, Aiven clearly knew where this rift came from…

“When the Knight’s creed is strong enough to achieve what cannot be accomplished no matter the manpower or time, then he is a Titled Knight that can rival the legendary Giant Dragon!!”

A phrase recorded in the “White Sail Swordsmanship” Knight’s Secret Manual passed through his mind, and only today did he finally gain a direct understanding of a Titled Knight’s power.

Profound… and unforgettable for life!
