Chapter 2493 Might Of Ancestral Blessing Weapon
Seeing the ax, my eyes couldn"t help but widen up; it was not just me but also Sarah, too shocked to see the ax.
As the ax appeared in its hand, its aura instantly broke through the realm of the peak Grandmaster and entered the High Grandmaster.
"Now, do you think I have no chance of killing you?" It asked with a confident smile. "I truly did not expect you have an ancestral blessing weapon," I said with a sigh before a smile appeared on my face.
While I may be smiling confidently, I am not that confident, and nor is Sarah. She has quickly collected her emotions, and her full power is rumbling through her, but it will be not enough to last even a minute in front of such power.
"So what you have an ancestral blessing weapon, if my calculations are right, you won"t be able to harness its power for more than half an hour, and after that, you will be left weakened," I added, and its expressions slipped for a moment before a big predatory smile appeared on its face.
"Don"t act so confident Zaar, last time you have barely able to survive for a minute before you ran away, but this time, you won"t have that chance," Flaha said, and the bone ax in its hand shone brightly as it disappeared from its spot and appearing in front of me.
"Die, Humans!" It shouted and attacked us with the huge bone ax.
BANNNG!
The ax stopped mid-way as it clashed against my s.h.i.+elds which revealed themselves and lit resplendently while a huge amount of power came at me, pressuring my veins as they transferred this huge power.
After coming from the ruin, I went out one more time and also continued practicing with alchemical solutions and my art.
So, my strength had taken quite a big leap compared to when I was in the ruin and fought against that High Grandmaster werewolf from the golden fire tribe; now, I did not have to use the fourth boost immediately when I am against a High Grandmasters.
The Apeman is not surprised seeing the s.h.i.+elds appearing and them taking the attack without breaking and appeared the top of me and attacked again.
BANNNG BANNNG BANNNG!
It attacked, and seeing the s.h.i.+elds taking the attack, it disappeared and attacked again. It is continuously attacking, not staying in one spot for more than a fraction of seconds.
It wanted its attacks to be overwhelming as possible but also, at the same time, did not want to be untangled in my strings.
If It had read the intelligence on me, it must know that I had captured even a High Grandmaster in my strings for a moment, so it has to be careful.
"Why are you not doing something; if we kept defending, sooner or later, its a.s.sault will overwhelm your s.h.i.+elds, and we would be ma.s.sacred by it or worse, eaten alive," Sarah said, clearly very stressed under the powerful a.s.sault of the Apeman.
I am quite surprised seeing how calm she is; not many people would be this calm when they see an enemy that could kill them instantly.
"I am doing everything I could; if you can in any way call the aid of that sword, then please help me with all your means," I said as I turned to her.
It instantly made her angry, and she glared at me, but just as these emotions appeared, they disappeared, and her eyes became calm as she looked at the sword in the center of the lake, which had begun s.h.i.+ning faintly the moment we had entered the final sanctum.
"I could not order the sword," she said with a sigh.
There was no change in my expression hearing that; while I would have very much liked it if she had been able to help me, I still have the ability to defeat this Grimm b.a.s.t.a.r.d on my own, and it won"t take me even half an hour.
If it had been a true High Grandmasters, I wouldn"t have had such thoughts, but it is not. It had just got that power because of the ancestral blessing weapon, which is not that powerful and has come with many restrictions.
The first and most important restriction is that the ax is only increasing its raw power, not the sensory powers or other abilities.
It is not just that; there is also a restriction on the type of attack it will be able to perform through the ax, and with every attack, the ax would lose its power. This is why ancestral blessing weapons are only used when it is absolutely necessary.
They are also very hard to make, and one would definitely lose their life when making them. Thus these kinds of weapons are only made by the people who already have one leg on the grave.
"Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!" Sarah cursed.
While the Black Horned Apeman is fighting against us, the rest of Grimms are not dilly-dallying. They are harvesting the resources.
All of them have focused on harvesting the Stainless Blood Soul lotuses out of the corrupted pond. It was not easy, but they were able to harvest it after paying the significant price; the corruption had invaded them.
The thing that surprised me most is that they have handed the lotus to Master cla.s.s Lizardman. That Lizardman is a common Master, not like Sarah, who had the power of Grandmaster.
These b.a.s.t.a.r.ds have come prepared; they begin to drink one potion after another, and soon, the corruption begins to release out of their bodies, and a minute later, they begin to go for the other lotus.
"Zaar, it seemed like I have underestimated you," Boomed the Black Horn Apeman from the other side of the sanctum.
"Yes, you did, and now you are maintaining distance from me like a scared rat," I mocked, which made its eyes blaze with rage. "Why don"t you come closer? I promise I won"t bite you," I asked as I put the most inviting smile on my face.
It made me angry, but it soon controlled its emotions and looked at me with cold and calculating eyes.
"Since you have asked so nicely, I will come and also bring the full power of my ax to you," It said with a toothed laugh, and next second, a shuddering aura blasted out of its body as a huge phantom appeared behind it.
It was the biggest bloodline phantom I had ever seen, and the power emitting made Sarah and me shudder uncontrollably.
