Chapter 184: Death Wraith
Rin and Lilith sparred for two hours after eating, and the score was interesting.
5-2
Lilith managed to hit Rin five times, while Rin hit her two times.
They were still sparring as the sound of clashing metals reverberated in the huge cave.
Both of them were moving all around the front area while their weapons clashed against each other.
If Rin initiated the attack, Lilith would deflect it and attack. When Lilith attacked, Rin would deflect it and attack.
After fighting for two hours against Lilith, Rin also managed to grasp some of her styles.
"Not bad..." Lilith smiled. Her holding her umbrella blurred and appeared before Rin's blade, which was about to strike her chest.
After Rin's blade struck her closed umbrella, Lilith opened it and pulled her hand back since Rin was still forcing.
However, a glint passed through Rin's eyes, and she immediately jumped back.
"I am not going to fall for that again," Rin snorted. She knew that Lilith could let Rin overwhelm her for half a second by pulling her hand back and then immediately pushing while opening her umbrella, which would make Rin unstable and give Lilith a chance to strike her.
"You fell for it once, but not twice, eh? Good. If you fell for it again, I would've been disappointed," Lilith laughed and dashed forward as her figure appeared before Rin with a stabbing motion of her umbrella.
The clash started again, and the statement of their clashes lasted for ten minutes before Rin saw an opportunity and closed in towards Rin while Lilith's umbrella went wide at Rin's armpit.
Lilith's eyebrows rose while Rin hit her weapon's handle at Lilith's arm, making her miss the opportunity to use her umbrella to defend herself. Immediately after that, Rin controlled her wrist and hand as her Katana made a horizontal slash at Lilith's neck.
*Slash*
A white mark appeared on Lilith's neck, causing her to wryly smile while Rin grinned, "Got you."
"That was nice. You can only rely on constantly improving styles that you would need to develop based on your opponent if your opponent's fighting style is not weaker than yours," Lilith smiled.
"Mhm," Rin nodded as that was what she did.
"If you know how you want to use your Blade in your wildest imagination, then you can sit in the Serene Spot and try to enter the next realm of your Blade concept," Lilith said as she put away her Umbrella.
—> Death Wraith: The Death Stream you produce will be 30% stronger in terms of power.
\\_Description_/
—> Ability to turn mana into Death Stream. Death Stream is an energy that eliminates life from anything. Death Stream can also turn into a Death Wisps, which can open the realm of Undeath.
—> Refine your body with a death stream to acquire Death Physique, where your body can transform into a Death elemental body. This state prevents your life orb from exhausting and dying, but your Death elemental body can be damaged or obliterated just like other elemental bodies.
...
After eating, Erix went back to his Serene Spot and started refining his body with Death Stream with the help of Lilith to make it fast.
Since Lilith also had Death Affinity, she sat behind Erix and put her palms on his back to aid him in his body refining by using her death stream. This also made the speed of progress faster.
After five hours, they made a whole 20% of the progress!
"Daily five hours for this, and we'll be done in five days," Erix said with a grin.
"Yep."
Rin opened her eyes and stretched her arms. She turned to Erix and Lilith, "Erix, you reached 2nd realm of Death affinity?"
"Yep."
"Damn. Well, let's finish our one-hour session of spiritual art, then we'll get back to our individual training."
"How's your progress regarding Blade Concept?" Lilith asked.
"I roughly know what to do and understand, but it will be based on my style, and I don't want to rush it," Rin said. "So, I'll pause this until we fight in Howling Tombs and make my concept reach 2nd realm while fighting."
Rin flew up and arrived beside Erix before grabbing his hand.
"That's good. We'll go to Howling Tombs after five days, which will mark two weeks spent at this place. Progress as much as you can in the next five days. After that, you'll progress in creating your skills and combat prowess in Howling Tombs."
...
Four days passed as everyone made progress, but this day seemed to end with a bang because some guests arrived to their cave and wanted it.
