The wrong person on the ground, the opening sword soul template

Chapter 225 When Seele Sheds Tears

Haruhime Sanjou's magic disappeared at this moment.

Allen and the others visibly breathed a sigh of relief. "It seems that this ability is difficult to use continuously in a short period of time, right?"

Sweat beaded on Hegni's forehead. He had been injured and then healed by Heci's magic, and his own strength was being depleted as a result.

However, now is the time to press our advantage!

Allen and Hegni pressed their advantage, clearly having the upper hand against the newly promoted Lv6 adventurers.

Ryu released a large number of magic orbs, sending them toward Hegni.

Ais and the others, who had initially held the advantage, were once again at a disadvantage.

Meanwhile, many of the staff at the Abundant Mistress Restaurant had also quietly slipped over.

They also knew the importance of Haici and her treatment team.

So the group concealed their presence and crept towards Haici.

However, before they could get close, they were blocked by two of the four Flame Gold Warriors.

"stop!"

"We've been spotted, meow!"

Anya and the others looked at the four Flame Gold Warriors with conflicted expressions. Each of these guys was Lv5, and their combined attack was comparable to Lv6.
Fighting against someone like that is just asking for trouble!
Just as Anya and the others were falling into a disadvantageous situation, a sharp blade suddenly flew from a distance.

The demonic sword, carrying a massive amount of lightning, was like a thunder god's spear cleaving through the sky, carving out ferocious ravines in the earth.

The other two of the four Flame Gold Warriors had no choice but to retreat.

However, during the retreat, they were still grazed by the lightning arrow, and the lightning transformed into a long snake, tearing at one of the Flame Gold Warriors.

Anya picked up the demon sword from the ground and then approached the opponent with the weapon.

"You traitor, how dare you attack us!"

Anya was clearly unsettled upon hearing this, and the Flame Gold Warrior immediately prepared to attack. However, another magic sword flew from afar, repelling the enemy.

The one providing support from the high ground was Naza of the Mih clan.

As a girl from the dog-human race, Nazha has a good talent for archery.

On her back were long, thin magic swords, all specially made to be long and thin.

While firing arrows, it can maximize power, support allies, and replenish their supplies.

Osa City Ruins Colosseum

Ota stretched his shoulders. "The warm-up is over. Let's get down to business, Liang Yue!"

His speed increased even further, and the Black Sword transformed into a phantom as it approached Liang Yue.

Faced with this attack, Liang Yue already sensed the exaggerated power within it.

He sidestepped and unleashed a backflip slash, trying to deflect Ota's attack direction as much as possible.

"boom!"

The devastating slash landed heavily on the ground, instantly creating a huge spiderweb-like crater.

A massive shockwave suddenly spread outwards, and Liang Yue's figure moved swiftly, instantly appearing near a weapon in the distance.

The smoke rose high into the sky, enveloping the two people in the thick fog.

The next moment, Ota swung his sword, sweeping away the thick fog and holding the greatsword directly above his head.

Liang Yue leaped into the air once more, and the Selfless Sword Domain behind him unfolded again, unleashing the "Meteor Fall!"

One by one, the sword blades transformed into meteors, plummeting to the ground at incredible speeds once more.

Ota's Black Sword was like the world's strongest shield; none of the weapons that fell like meteors could penetrate Ota's defense.

Its strength and defensive capabilities once again refreshed Liang Yue's understanding.

Liang Yue's expression turned serious. "I didn't expect Ota's defense to have reached this level?"

Ota's skin defense shouldn't be that exaggerated, but the opponent's swordsmanship is enough to make up for his own defensive shortcomings.

Combined with its massive blade, which is over twenty centimeters wide, it can be described as a giant weapon that combines offense and defense.

"It seems that relying solely on skill mechanics won't be enough to break through their defenses. It looks like the only way is to achieve a breakthrough in swordsmanship."

With this in mind, Liang Yue once again came into close proximity to Ota.

Ota's blade slashed horizontally towards Liang Yue, who immediately unleashed the Rising Dragon Strike to leap into the air, then released it again to arrive at the opponent's side.

His ghostly hand shone brightly once more, and Ota, who was about to attack, immediately blocked the attack with the Black Sword.

The next moment, the shockwave of Phantom Sword Dance was released from Liang Yue Ghost Hand, and the shockwave continued to suppress Ota.

Liang Yue unleashed the Breaking Army Dragon Slayer Strike once more; he could now dismantle this skill.

Instead of attacking, it activates the speed-boosting property.

Afterwards, Liang Yue arrived at Ota's side and rear, and released Meteor Fall at the opponent again.

Ota, who was forced back two steps by the shockwave of Phantom Sword Dance, forcefully cut through the shockwave in front of him.

He then turned around again, holding the blade of the Black Sword in front of him to defend against the Meteor Fall attack.

Liang Yue's figure teleported amidst a large number of ground troops, and then continued to unleash Meteor Fall.

Ota followed Liang Yue's attacks, simultaneously blocking a large number of attacks.

Watching Ota's actions, Liang Yue had a new idea in her mind again.

"Just defense? How about this?"

Liang Yue's figure soared into the air, her feet moving at high speed as if stepping on aerial stairs.

Then, the Selfless Sword Domain behind him began to release a large number of weapons at high speed, and Liang Yue continued to move in the air amidst the barrage of weapons.

Not only that, Liang Yue was also simultaneously gripping these weapons with both hands and throwing them, using a speed completely different from the barrage of attacks from the Wuwo Sword Domain.

As she saw Ota use the Black Sword to slash, Liang Yue began throwing her weapon in an arc.

The speed, angle, and force with which he threw the weapons varied, and combined with the barrage of weapons from the Selfless Sword Domain, the flight trajectories of a large number of weapons changed once again.

When speed, direction, sequence, force, and even flight trajectory all change, the difficulty for Ota to completely defend against it increases again.

Determined not to get hurt, Ota began to run and defend, slicing through the constantly changing angles of the weapons launched from the sky.

Just as Liang Yue's attack rhythm faltered, Ota leaped high into the air, and the massive Black Sword instantly appeared in front of Liang Yue.

A cold sweat broke out on Liang Yue's back, and the next moment his figure instantly teleported onto the armored vehicle on the ground.

Before Ota could fall to the ground, Liang Yue retrieved the weapons around her and threw them out again.

"To effectively kill Ota, I need to master a stronger sword technique!"

The reason why Liang Yue can still maintain a stalemate with Ota is purely because her own skill mechanism is more powerful.

Especially the derivative ability of Extreme Demon Sword Technique: Storm Style, which allows for spatial movement.

This ability allows Liang Yue to store her sword energy within her weapon and mark it.

After that, when you need to teleport instantly, you only need to activate the sword aura pattern mark on your weapon to teleport.

Facing the formidable Ota alone would be incredibly stressful. And under this immense pressure, Liang Yue discovered that his understanding of swordsmanship was also rapidly improving.

"Is it not only your swordsmanship, but also your understanding of sword energy that's improving?"

Liang Yue once again actively felt the power of the Extreme Ghost Sword Technique: Iron-Cutting Style. This power, which allowed him to hear the breath of all things, was also amplifying his perception.

The so-called listening to the breath of all things means perceiving the laws and weaknesses of all things, and thus cutting open this relatively most vulnerable part.

High returns naturally come with high risks.

To gain power and improve swordsmanship, one must inevitably engage in numerous battles and dance on the edge of a blade.

Liang Yue felt her blood burning, but her physical strength was being rapidly depleted.

However, when fighting a powerhouse like Ota, how could one possibly have the luxury of thinking about conserving energy?

Now is the crucial moment for Liang Yue to break through her own limits and challenge herself.

The Black Sword approached Liang Yue again, this time aiming at the spot where Liang Yue had just landed after teleporting.

So Liang Yue held the sword in both hands to block in front of her, but was hit by the Black Sword and sent flying into the air.

"boom!"

Liang Yue felt an incredibly powerful force approaching, and then he lost his balance.

His entire skeleton felt as if it were dislocated, causing him intense pain.

His face turned pale instantly, and his breathing became erratic.

Ota's figure rapidly approached, and it looked like he was about to launch another attack on Liang Yue.

Liang Yue's figure instantly moved to the ground, and he raised his pale ghost hand again.

"Phantom Sword Dance Impact!"

The shockwave from the Phantom Sword Dance's sword net flew towards Ota.

As Ota plummeted through the air, he swung his greatsword with all his might, tearing it apart the instant it made contact with the shockwave.

"boom!"

A loud roar erupted in mid-air, along with a shockwave.

Even Ota's figure froze in mid-air for half a second as a result.

"Even if it's a frontal defense, I'd have a hard time withstanding the impact?"

It's been so long since I've felt this pain.

Although her joints and even her arms were still trembling, Liang Yue felt no fear whatsoever.

All that remained was excitement and a thirst for power.

Hot sweat dripped from his forehead; he had already expended a lot of energy.

Ota, who had landed on the ground, slowly approached Liang Yue, as did Liang Yue.

Both sides are trying their best to recover their condition in order to unleash a more intense offensive in the upcoming battle.

Liang Yue instantly switched his weapon to Berserk, which boosted his attack speed and movement speed for ten seconds.

He then swiftly unleashed the Dragon Slayer Strike!

A dazzling stream of light mixed with flames slashed towards Ota, while Ota covered the Black Sword with golden light and counterattacked.

"boom!"

Liang Yue unleashed Phantom Sword Dance at close range once again, and Ota countered Liang Yue's attack head-on with overwhelming power and speed.

Inside the palace of the ruins of Osa city

Freya's mood turned angry. "This is really annoying!"

She sensed the tears flowing from Helen's unconscious body because of her special connection with Helen.

Considering her role as the subconscious Seele personality she's played for so many years, and her feelings for Liang Yue.

All of this combined made Freya unusually irritable.

She didn't want to see Liang Yue get hurt, and she didn't want to see Liang Yue accidentally killed by Ota.

After all, this was a war game, and she had never heard of Liang Yue having any outstanding defensive capabilities.

What if Liang Yue's life is put in danger by accident?
Even she noticed that Liang Yue's face turned pale after she parried Ota's attack.

After all, it was a one-on-one fight between two levels, and Otto himself is currently the strongest in Orario.

His combat experience, swordsmanship, various ability values, and the potential derived from those abilities are all higher than Liang Yue's.

Of course, they might be at the same level in swordsmanship.

Freya summoned her maidservant, "Now, let's end this war game as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

After Freya's order was relayed, some of Freya's Familia members crossed the battlefield and charged directly toward the east side of the ruins.

Hedin's lightning arrows provided cover, and the faction alliance members, who were already cannon fodder, were once again efficiently defeated.

Lily also noticed this scene, and she could only nervously warn the gods to run away.

Gods cannot use their divine power in the human realm. Without effective authority, they are merely mortals.

Even a level 1 adventurer can easily defeat a large number of gods.

These Freya's followers cleared the area with extremely high efficiency, and under Hedin's command, they were very effective at locating enemy gods.

It is extremely difficult for these gods to protect the flower on their chests.

If a flower is damaged or even leaves its own body, it is considered out of the game. Furthermore, its companions will also be eliminated.

As Freya's retinue attacked, one god after another was found, and thus lost their right to continue the competition.

Therefore, those adventurers who had lost their ability to fight, or those who were still fighting, were no longer able to continue fighting the Freya Familia.

Four goddesses, hand in hand, surrounded one of Freya's followers, and the adventurer could only destroy their flowers.

But the adventurers dared not move in their attempt to escape this encirclement.

Of course, this extreme situation can only restrict one Freya's familiar, and there are many adventurers that Hedin has sent this time.

There were more than thirty people, including two Lv5.
At this moment, Takemikazuchi was delaying Freya's Familia, and Hestia hurriedly tried her best to escape.

Hephaestus approached Hestia. "Hestia, I'll act as bait. You go to the front lines, but be careful!"

Takemikazuchi is under immense pressure. His current body is merely that of a mortal, and aside from his eternal lifespan, his overall abilities are inferior even to those of a Level 1 adventurer.

However, he possessed exceptional martial arts skills, allowing him to single-handedly confront ten adventurers.

"I'll take on ten of you! Your skills aren't up to par!"

The pressure on Takemikazuchi was increasing, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.

More Freya's familiars approached, using sheer numbers to snatch the flower from Takemikazuchi's chest.

The flower pinned to his chest greatly restricted Takemikazuchi's movements.
