Legendary Guardian - Volume 3 Chapter 352 352
Derik and Cyrus’ current power level was just too great for people still in the mortal realm, even the overseer could tell these two were intentionally hiding their true strength and this is what frightened him. The worst thing about the whole situation was not the fact that they were holding back, it was the fact that the overseer couldn’t tell how strong they are or how much strength they were still hiding. When gazing at the majestic Cyrus in his supreme being mode, all he could see was abundant life energy gushing out of his body with no boundaries or limitations, he could practically kill an enemy without noticing! At this point, the overseer couldn’t gauge Cyrus’ true strength but one thing it was sure of was that Cyrus was intentionally suppressing his power.
{If someone like this steps into the demigod realm how powerful will he become? How can they suppress their strength so well even though they are still in the mortal realm? Even a demigod like myself can’t see their true power!}
At this point, the thoughts of Derik and Cyrus reaching the demigod realm scared the shit out of the orc overseer. The power boost they would gain, coupled with their already insane power level was enough to make this overseer realize why the old gods are so adamant about killing all the guardian spirit hosts, especially those who have gotten their inheritance and become new god candidates.
“Die!”
Cyrus’ voice forced the orc overseer to forgo his thoughts and focus on the battle at hand. He could see two golden spears descending from the skies and even though he was quite sure he had enough physical strength to take these spears head-on, the overseer had become more cautious of the duo because of the various unknowns surrounding their strength.
Wooosh!
Leaving behind only after images, the overseer easily circled the massive golden figure due to his greater speed. While the increase in height greatly strengthens a demigod and increases his physical capabilities, as well as his attack range, it also means they are slower than normal people. Even though the increase in attack range covered for the reduction in movement speed, a very fast opponent can utilize this as an advantage when fighting against another demigod. This is why the overseer is always reluctant to increase his body size.
“Url’m clan secret technique: Void snakes!”
Suddenly countless hissing sounds filled the skies as the overseer’s right hand began to morph and an unexpected amount of invisible snakes lunged forward, wrapping themselves around the gigantic golden man with two golden spears in his hands.
Cyrus had observed the fight between Derik and Uram and had also seen the invisible snakes back then. Uram was only able to create one void snake but here, the overseer created so many void snakes that with just a glance, Cyrus could count over a hundred of them. He also noticed these snakes were bigger than Uram’s and even more sturdy. But in the end, he could still see them even clearer than Derik, unfortunately for Cyrus, the overseer had no intention of getting into a prolonged fight.
“Azura clan secret technique: Judgement spear!” the overseer growled.
Accompanying a loud roar, a massive wave of green aura erupted from the overseer’s body and rose above his head. The green arrow twirled around each other until it took the shape of a massive green spear, flying straight at the immobilized Cyrus who was yet to break free from the void snakes.
“Just like my friend the dead chick used this same technique on him earlier, I also did the same for you, hoping it will be different but in the end it’s still the same!” Cyrus sneered as his life aura exploded and gathered above his head.
“Guardian weapon path: Divine godslayer blade!” Cyrus roared
Instantly his life aura took the shape of a massive golden broadsword, decorated with countless runes. The guardian weapon diffused of powerful life aura and it was literarily the size of a small mountain, making the overseer’s green spear which is considered large look like a dagger been compared to a longsword.
Without saying a word, the massive golden broadsword, spun rapidly, knocking away the green spear effortlessly. Before the overseer could express his shock, the golden guardian weapon was already above the overseer hacking down at him mercilessly.
“How?” The overseer cried as he quickly summoned the green spear to act as a shield but both he and the green spear were soon knocked out of the skies, falling deep into the black river, contaminated by Derik’s blood.
Even with the outcome of the short exchange, Cyrus didn’t seem happy. Even a monkey would tell that the overseer was yet to reveal his true strength and this was probably because of the orc settlement not far from their location. Cyrus had been observing his foe, right from when he battled Derik till now, hoping to find some sort of weakness which can be used against him but since then and up till now the overseer is yet to show his real abilities. All this while the overseer had been utilizing combat techniques meant for gold realm masters. These are abilities still in the mortal realm! Yet he has been able to draw out power from such weak techniques enough to make him and Derik keep their guards up when fighting.
These were the techniques the three orc chieftains used and still failed to leave a single scratch on him and Derik. The thought of this man utilizing his real strength was enough to send shivers down Cyrus’ spine. But this wasn’t the time to dwell on such thoughts.
Since the void snakes were practically life force manipulated to take the form of a serpent, Cyrus didn’t need any form of crafty technique to break free, neither did he need to use brute strength to release himself.
“All this while I expected the so-called Demigods to be unreachable beings capable of wiping out mortals with just a single word But after seeing this poor display of power I must say, overseer, you disappoint me!” Cyrus said.
