Chapter 579 579: Defeating the Soul King
It was true that now that the natural energy had faded, Cain had grown weaker, but he was still an extremely powerful warrior with unique abilities and monstrous divine talent.
Three typhoons of oceanic power came from Cain's right while the Astral Cultivators of the Umbra Clan attacked with their shadow blades, accompanied by a massive dark spear sent by their Essence Cultivator.
Cain made a sharp move to the left, taking control of two of the typhoons and redirecting their power toward the remaining Astral Cultivators from the Umbra Clan. The duo was not able to block the attacks, taking them head-on.
Had the Astral Cultivators from the Umbra Clan been at their peak, they might have been able to survive, but they were badly wounded, so that blast was enough to push their bodies beyond their limits and stop their hearts.
Two more Apotheosis Masters perished, but it came at a price as Cain could only raise his arms, and push his Astral Wave to its peak to resist the impact from the last typhoon and shadow spear.
"BOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!"
Cain was encompassed in an explosion of shadows and oceanic pressure that made his bones tremble, and if that was not enough, the next second a broadsword came crashing down toward his head, intending to split open his skull.
The Flow had already shown Cain the attack from the Soul King, so he was able to take a step back and raise his arms, using them as a shield against the broadsword.
The strike left deep lacerations on Cain's arms that reached all the way to the bone, sending him flying away, but even as his body was hurtled without control, he was still able to summon Slaughter.
The Soul King had already chased after Cain, trying to take advantage of the attack and unleash an onslaught when he saw the blade appear and how, mid-flight, the young man was able to charge the Holy Weapon.
