Chapter 75: Into the 10th Floor Part V - Astaia’s Divine Skill
The Twilight Revenants surged forward, their spectral forms twisting against the brilliance that surrounded her. Astraia raised her sword, calling forth a Celestial Barrage—a rapid flurry of strikes infused with divine energy, each blow releasing arcs of radiant light that sliced through multiple enemies in a single motion.
Her sword hummed with power as she twirled, slashing horizontally, cleaving two Revenants in half, their forms scattering like smoke on the wind.
But the Revenants adapted quickly. One managed a glancing blow, a shadowy slash grazing her forearm, searing her skin with corrupted mana.
Her expression tightened.
She shifted stance, invoking Sanctified Veil, a defensive aura that shimmered like translucent silk around her, absorbing the lingering mana attacks and stabilizing her energy.
Astraia dashed forward, moving fluidly between enemies, her swordplay a masterful blend of speed and precision. Each strike was punctuated by bursts of divine light, the Sword Saint’s Blessing amplifying her physical prowess and mana regeneration.
Despite her strength, fatigue crept in.
The Revenants pressed harder, weaving intricate attack patterns designed to overwhelm.
She parried a spinning slash, countered with a piercing thrust, and then vaulted backward to create distance.
Her breathing quickened, but she remained focused.
The celestial energy surrounding her flared brightly as she prepared to unleash her ultimate technique — Radiant Crescendo — a sweeping arc of pure light capable of decimating anything caught within its path.
