Novachro gazed at Kaipo, smirking. "Your invincible armor is quite impressive," he said, examining Kaipo's Titan's Aegis. "But I have an idea of how to break it." He raised his hand and intoned, "Kōken." A sword of pure light energy materialized in his grasp, its blade humming with deadly precision.177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChpaCkuBfu
With Kōken, Novachro moved with blinding speed, appearing beside Kaipo and slashing his chest. Before Kaipo could react, Novachro disappeared and reappeared, delivering another slash, severing Kaipo's arm. Novachro repeated this pattern, cutting Kaipo with each strike, moving too fast for Kaipo to comprehend.177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnN12HWTfJ
Desperate, Kaipo attempted to use his Corrupt Heart ability "Reversal," but it failed, indicating his Corrupt Heart abilities were mysteriously still not working. Cornered, Kaipo activated Essence Manifest: Swift Tempest. A shimmering aura of vibrant light enveloped him, trails of energy following his every movement. His eyes gleamed with an electric glow as his form became a blur of motion.177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6kkoM7hEw
Kaipo laughed as he activated two Ultimate Techniques of Swift Tempest. "Tempest Form," transforming into a being of pure speed and energy, allowing him to move at light speeds, traverse the battlefield instantly, deliver devastating attacks, and evade threats with ease. And "Infinite Velocity," tapping into the limitless potential of his speed, granting him the ability to move and act with absolute freedom, performing feats such as phasing through objects, manipulating time, and delivering attacks that transcended normal space-time constraints.177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkauYBx3C6
Now fighting at similar speeds, Kaipo and Novachro clashed in the air, their movements a blur of light and energy. Novachro smiled, impressed. "You're keeping up. Impressive."177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZ83VzayYq
Switching perspective, Levi, Drew, and Lyn arrived at Level 7, where Thalor, Lord of the Abyss, awaited them. Sitting and meditating, Thalor opened his eyes as they approached. "You've arrived faster than I expected," he said, his voice echoing with power. "But what you did to Lyra won't work on me."177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZkZEPmrvE
Drew stepped forward, addressing Thalor. "Tell us about your abilities over control of water."177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkA9e2qpKY
Thalor smiled. "I have control over dark water, can summon abyssal creatures, and create drowning illusions."177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzOUGK6XWh
Drew grinned. "Interesting." He turned to Lyn and Levi. "Go ahead. I'll handle Thalor."177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgzTLWL7Fi
Lyn and Levi nodded, but as they moved to leave, Thalor summoned powerful abyssal creatures. "Did you think I'd let you leave so easily?" he asked, his voice laced with amusement.177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkla5pj4Xe
Suddenly, a surge of power erupted from Drew. He used "Spectral Tides," summoning ghostly waters imbued with necrotic energy. The spectral tides drained the life force from the abyssal creatures, weakening them while strengthening Drew, Lyn, and Levi. Drew followed up with "Abyssal Frost," freezing the creatures with necrotic ice, nearly indestructible and draining the life force of anything it touched.177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGWA8ARKyu
With the creatures immobilized, Levi and Lyn took the opportunity to head to Level 8, where Pyrrhus, Flame Sovereign of the Infernal Dominion Universe, awaited them.177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbY8qFTjfw
The chapter ended with Drew standing tall against Thalor, ready to prove his strength, while Levi and Lyn raced toward their next challenge.177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLyFZSJrpM
