Hero of Darkness Chapter 463: The First of a Kind

Chapter 463: The First of a Kind

While Kahn, Ronin and Omega watched four legendary rank allies getting beaten as if an adult was thras.h.i.+ng some kids… none of them could believe what they were seeing in front of their eyes.

Was the battle they were seeing even real? How could a ma.s.sive creature like Vilgax simply phase through attacks and move so nimbly to the point even the legendary rank creatures of the same levels and fighting prowess couldn't even react in time.

[What a waste of time! You all dared to invade my domain while being so weak?

Pathetic!] declared Vilgax with a contemptuous tone.

It hadn't even been 10 minutes and he already took down four legendary rank generals of Kahn who were just as strong as itself.

"What the actual f.u.c.k?! How is that even possible?!" exclaimed Kahn with his eyes wide open and full of disbelief.

But right when he was left speechless… he heard a voice in his head.

[Master! I think I figured out why none of their attacks could damage this creature.] spoke Oliver who had been a.n.a.lyzing the battle from the air very quietly and patiently.

[Why?] inquired Kahn.

[The main reason is… This thing isn't a monster. Rather…] replied Oliver in a serious voice as he revealed his findings.

[It's a legendary rank Spirit!]

Oliver's voice resounded in Kahn's mind and he was left asunder again.

"What do you mean?" asked Kahn in a confused tone.

[What I mean is… it doesn't have a true body.

It s.h.i.+fts to a physical form only when it's attacking an opponent and for the rest of the time, it's in a spirit form that can't be harmed with any of our attacks.

None of us possesses any skill that could counter it or damage it in any way.] he elaborated.

Kahn was bewildered as Oliver explained the whole scenario to him after the latter made a careful a.n.a.lysis.

[Ceril, check if what Oliver said is true!] ordered Kahn to Ceril who was swatted away like a fly a few minutes ago.

This was the first time Kahn had encountered a spirit monster. And a legendary rank at that one.

Until now, he only heard about these creatures in books he read while gathering information about different types of monsters and species in this empire. But so far, he never encountered a single one of these creatures.

But now… his team was fighting one while having a time margin until the gateway to the forbidden zone opened in a couple of weeks.

[Ha haha! Losers.] out of the blue, Rudra spoke in Kahn's mind.

[You wanna come out and fight it then?] asked Kahn sarcastically.

[Umm… I still haven't fully completed absorbing the bloodline. So I can't fight.

This is also a good experience for them. They shouldn't always rely on me.] said Rudra.

In reality, he was just making an excuse… Because Rudra didn't want to be embarra.s.sed like the rest either.

[b.i.t.c.h, you only showed up twice! And none of us ever asked for your help.] said Oliver who was attacking from the air with his wind and lightning elemental storm skills.

So far, he was the only general Vilgax couldn't reach. But his attacks made no difference either.

If even someone like Blackwall and Jugram were forced back and taken down… there was nothing the remaining trio could do.

[I'm on it.] replied Ceril who just got up from the rubble of boulders and tree trunks.

Ceril then cast various elemental spells and attacked from different sides.

Other than being a Necromancer, he was still a mage who was comparable to a legitimate first-stage magician. So he had mastered most of the elements till this point.

However, just like before… none of the spells could affect Vilgax's body which was no smaller than Ceril's skeletal one.

[Alright… keep it busy. I have to try something.] said Kahn and while the battle continued in this ma.s.sive and wide mountainous region… he summoned Lucifer and quickly slashed open a void crack.

Kahn entered inside the True Dimension where nothing was out of his reach as soon as he had enough s.p.a.ce force.

But since he hadn't been able to absorb mana or any energy in the past month because of his damaged soul, he couldn't do the same for the latter either.

He had barely enough s.p.a.ce force to enter inside the true dimension for a few minutes.

"What the h.e.l.l?! That can't be…" spoke Kahn as he noticed the happenings of the battle from the true dimension.

Because while he could see and sense the bodies of the legendary rank generals who were engaged in a battle…

He couldn't see Vilgax in this plane of existence at all.

There was simply nothing. And it felt like the generals were fighting a non-existent ent.i.ty.

After a few minutes, Kahn ran out of s.p.a.ce force because he used the Dimensional Cut skill where the enemy was supposed to be but still nothing happened.

"What the h.e.l.l is this? My Dimensional Cut can kill any creature even if I can't harm it from the real world.

This guy is simply impossible to kill." said Kahn as soon as he exited the void crack away from the battlefield.

[Can we run away? Do you sense anything behind it?] asked Kahn to Oliver.

[Master, I've been meaning to tell you this.

There is a distorted barrier that is over 20 kilometers in height and even I can't see an end to the circ.u.mference of this invisible dome.

This layer of barrier is simply too strong. I don't think even Ceril and Rudra can break through it.

And I don't sense an opening in this barrier from the sky either.

So if we want to go forward and reach the entrance… we need to kill this guy first.] replied Oliver.

"Dammit! It's just like the map pinpointed… this Vilgax is actually the guardian of the entrance to the 2nd layer of the barrier." said Kahn.

The other two places where Celine and Ezekiel were supposed to enter from had Saints so they already cleared off the guardians a century ago. As for Kahn… he had no choice but to get rid of this guardian by himself because he was entering from Verla.s.sen fiefdom.

If even his legendary rank generals couldn't do anything and he couldn't even use his Dimensional Law… there was nothing he could do to overcome this final hurdle.

But right when all was lost… when the fate of humanity lay on Kahn's shoulders… the expert magician among their group spoke…

[Master… I think I found its weakness.]
