Chapter 675: Silver vs Blue
Kiyohime did not let the element of surprise go to waste. She surged forward, a serpent of water and fury. Too bad though, as Sol was already ready for her each move. He exhaled deeply, a blast of freezing ice erupting from his maw and enveloping her speeding form mid-flight. Kiyohime roared in pain as the ice clung to her wings, slowing her movements.
Kiyohime could control water in all its forms but felt that trying to contend with Sol right now would be a waste of her time and energy, both of which she did not have.
Seizing the opportunity, Sol called upon the wind again, using the momentum of the gale to slam into her. However, a belated realization dawned upon him that her struggling form was only but an illusion, like the refraction of light on water.
By the time he reacted, dozens of ice spears had already impaled him. Things did not just stop there, however. As soon as they entered his body, the spear melted and the water flowed through his body, causing his veins to rupture.
“Crazy woman! Are you trying to kill your husband!?” Sol roared even as blood burst from his eyes and maws. Even though he knew he could regenerate faster than the attack could break him apart, he could still feel the pain. And no one liked being ripped apart from the inside out; unless they had all the screws loose on their head, of course.
“If such simple means could kill you, I would be truly disappointed.” She chuckled outwardly. She was wincing on the inside, however. Her body was not in good shape. Water had many healing properties and she had mastered some special skills from the phoenix line.
However, she had one big disadvantage. This technique consumed a great deal of her energy.
Not enough mana.
She frowned. As a Divine Beast, Kiyohime’s core allowed her to constantly pull mana from the air. Yet, there was still a limit to how much she could really pull, everything had its limits. If she went too far, this entire zone would become a Mana Dead Zone. A recurrent disaster in the Astral Realm.
