Chapter No One Escapes
As one could imagine, since Crimew was allowed to use s.p.a.ce Bending Realm partic.i.p.ants, that meant everyone else attacking it could do so as well. Immediately, Jutras" s.p.a.ce Bending Realm cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits entered the fray.
In the south, the Walfure Region did the same thing. Since Walfure was nowhere near to losing its region, they didn"t need to keep any of their s.p.a.ce Bending Realm members behind. With that said, Roan sent out 90 of the Jamai Sect"s disciples. He only left ten behind since he wanted to account for any possibilities.
As for the battleground, that was the city of Himesthil, located close to the capital of Crimew.
The head disciple of the Jutras Region, Pourchaq, looked at Rhathio and said, "You should surrender now while there"s still time. Look behind you. Walfure is conquering your cities in the south nonstop after you attacked it. Now their s.p.a.ce Bending Realm partic.i.p.ants are here for payback."
Olly, who was the strongest disciple of Walfure, snorted in response. "What do you want to do? Use the Crimew Region idiots for your own benefit? It would be much better if they allied with us."
"Ally with you?" Rhathio laughed out loud in response. "Hahaha! Your Walfure Region only survived because our alliance was attacked almost as soon as we attacked you. Did you forget you"re a region at the border? Strength-wise, your s.p.a.ce Bending Realm members aren"t as strong as ours. Not that we"ll surrender to Jutras either."
Olly didn"t waste time after hearing that. "So be it."
Olly"s body suddenly began to turn crystalline while Spatial Power gathered around him. As Luina mentioned in the past, Olly was part of the Gla.s.s Race, which was considered very strong at controlling Divine Energy but was weak in terms of body strength. However, Olly cultivated the Tyrannical Iron Body Cultivation Technique to make up for that exact flaw. It was a very hard technique, especially for his race. Nevertheless, he succeeded, which became one of the reasons for him to be the strongest s.p.a.ce Bending Realm disciple of the Jamai Sect.
"Thousand Bolt Domain!"
The area around him was covered by shadows of artificial clouds as lightning cracked all throughout the area.
"Dimensional Lightning Divider!"
Lightning Element joined the splitting of s.p.a.ce that came crashing down on Rhathio. Sure enough, he chose the leader of the Crimew Region as his opponent. He still couldn"t do what Sally did in the Lost Star Realm, which was to fuse Elements and s.p.a.ce as one. However, he didn"t seem to be far away from that.
"Hmph!" Rhathio wasn"t the head disciple for nothing, though.
"Melting Body Domain!"
Spatial Powers also gathered around him as Fire Element increased the temperature of the surroundings.
"Sun Breaking Spear!"
A huge spear of fire appeared above his head and charged against Olly"s Dimensional Lightning Divider, with the two crashing in the middle.
*Boom!*
s.p.a.ce contorted as Lightning and Fire Element raged in the middle. Yet, Olly didn"t wait for the aftermath as he used his Lightning Movement skill and Spatial Powers to maneuver around.
Unfortunately, Rhathio wasn"t coming to fight him. Instead, Rhathio saw himself forced to turn around and defend against Pourchaq. "Shameless!"
Pourchaq wasn"t in the mood to wait for Olly and Rhathio to fight, though. "Do you think I"ll just stand still while he takes your head? Dream on! I need to take it myself if I want to conquer this region."
Pourchaq used his Water Element and s.p.a.ce Power to activate his Domain and attack Rhathio, who was currently at a disadvantage. After all, Olly also joined the fray.
Those three weren"t the only ones, though. All the regions" partic.i.p.ants fell into a battle at the s.p.a.ce Bending Realm level. However, the main focus wasn"t the Crimew Region"s partic.i.p.ants. Instead, it was a three-way fight. Even if Crimew surrendered or all of their partic.i.p.ants died, Jutras still needed to defeat Walfure if they wanted to take this territory.
However, they were all in the s.p.a.ce Bending Realm. Defeating someone was one thing. Killing them was something else. Let alone the fact that all sides weren"t really going all out, keeping some energy in reserve in case they needed to flee.
Meanwhile, without anyone noticing, Roan appeared on the north side of Himesthil. To be more specific, he was around 20 or so kilometers away from the fight. He also kept Rean"s Light and Divine Sense bending skill activated. At this distance, he wasn"t afraid of Rhathio or Pourchaq"s Divine Senses piercing through Rean"s skill. Another reason for this distance was that it was far enough for the natural spatial detection to not catch him.
He wasn"t the only one, though. He was standing in the air with Kentucky, high above the skies. "How is it? Can you see it?"
Kentucky nodded, replying, "Yep. The sky is very clear, so I can see the battles taking place." Kentucky"s eyes were still as good as ever. "It looks pretty much like a free for all at the moment. All sides obviously have some tricks under their sleeves."
"No one wants to lose, after all," replied Rean, also standing there in the air. "Jutras can afford to not take Crimew Region, but they can"t afford to lose their s.p.a.ce Bending Realm forces."
Kentucky continued to speak. "We seem to be the ones at a slight disadvantage here. We only brought 90 of our s.p.a.ce Bending Realm members. However, both Crimew and Jutras seemed to have all 100 from each side."
"It"s meaningless," Roan told him. "As long as they have a way to flee, this battle will eventually end up with Crimew losing. After all, only Crimew can"t afford to run away. If they do, they lose their region. They"ll wear out first."
Rean shrugged his shoulders when he heard that. "That"s why we"re here, right? To make sure none of them escapes."
Roan coldly smiled as he looked at the over hundred Transition Realm cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits behind him. "All of you already know what to do. I don"t want a single soul to escape this place after we start, understood?"
"Yes, sir!" They all answered.
Roan nodded before looking at Rean, asking him, "You evacuated all the unnecessary personnel, right?"
"But of course!" Rean nodded as well.
Roan then joined the other Transition Realm subordinates that also came for that fight and headed to the center of the battleground. Soon after, he accessed the Dimensional Realm. Or, to be more specific, the core of the System Sect"s building.
*Vup!*
Suddenly, an entire sect appeared on the battlefield.
