GACHA SOVEREIGN

618 End of the Figh

"Beast King Grand Slash!"

The white light turned into a sword wave and flew toward Ragna. Unlike the previous one, this attack might contain the same beast aura as an illusory lion head appeared in front of the sword wave and roared.

Ragna saw the lion that was trying to bite him and raised both of its hands and grabbed the white sword wave.

It took him a few seconds to barely destroy this sword attack, and that also cost his hand. Unfortunately, this body only attacked the people around him without any instinct or mind. Even with the bleeding on its two hands, Ragna would still attack him with full strength.

Igor appeared right beside him and slashed his sword once again. However, Ragna suddenly did something unreasonable. It grabbed Igor's sword with his left hand to the point it was bleeding all over. Yet, it managed to stop Igor's sword and his movement.

Ragna sent a punch right on Igor's abdomen.

"Sh*t!" Igor quickly stopped it with his other hands, but it was too late. The punch went through and blasted him away.

"Gah!" He spat some stomach fluid and flew away.

"Boom!" Ultimately, he crashed to the ground after flying for almost a few hundred meters. Igor endured all the pain and rose from his position before jumping forward. Atlas was still in his preparation. If Ragna disturbed him, it would be such a waste.

On the way, he also checked his body condition. The punch obviously went through, but the damage was less than he expected. The armor on his body managed to soften the impact from him, especially with the special rune from Atlas. On the other hand, Ragna had been injured a few times, and it was quite worse. He thought, "We can do it!"

Far away from the battlefield, Alex furrowed his eyebrows when watching this fight. Although he couldn't clearly see their figure, he was able to recognize their energy.

He was shocked when Igor released the white tiger to attack Ragna. It was a Sword Art indeed and should be able to copy it. However, Alex realized that he lacked something, and that was the Beastly Aura that Igor had.

Even if Alex were a Martial Saint and used that attack, the white tiger would still become weaker. If Ragna used his two hands to shred the tiger into pieces, he would only need one hand to destroy Alex's tiger.

Not only that white tiger, but the last lion attack also piqued his interest. Truthfully speaking, it would be far wonderful to have that technique rather than his Blade of Conquest. It obviously released a stronger attack if he used it on the same level.

"So that is the Sword Path," Alex muttered to himself. "What are my sword and spear? Looking back when I started my training in the lower world, I used both of them because these two were the only weapons for me. I had no choice other than using them."

As if he forgot about Nelson, Alex kept thinking. "I never thought about it deeply back then, and I only thought that these two weapons suited me. I tried using a bow, dagger, and other weapons, but holding a sword and a spear made me feel at home. What is exactly my sword and spear…"

"Now that I think about it… I got my Spear Intent from the first Golden Tribulation and got my Sword Intent from the second Golden Tribulation. I then proceeded with the fusion far later." Alex pondered for a moment. Although the answer was apparent, he still needed to ask Nelson. "Nelson. Did the previous me use Sword and Spear as well?"

Nelson let out a long sigh and nodded. "Yes."

"I see. It might be an influence from there." Alex calmly nodded his head as if he wasn't bothered with it. "Just like how Igor and Atlas described, I have my own experiences, race, element and so on. I should also possess a unique thing that only I had. Even if I would trace it to ten generations of reincarnation of me, they would certainly have a different path. My current problem is to figure out the path."

Nelson breathed out of relief after noticing that Alex had come to terms with his reincarnation. Instead of discussing his previous life and thinking about why it would bother with him, Alex chose to accept all of it and wanted his own traits to grow.

Lin Xingzhi smiled brightly behind the screen, watching Alex had finally broken from his cocoon. She muttered, "Go. You are not him, but I still love you. Show me the real you."

Alex, of course, didn't have a single clue about the relief of his spirits and others. He kept thinking about his own path before he recalled another word. "Wait, Element?"

This word jolted his mind as he felt like he got a big clue about this path thing. "Is the element the answer? I can't be sure, but it's one of the clues. I had two elements: Pure Fire and Space Elements. I don't really know that much about Space Element, though, or maybe I should learn some Space Arts to deepen my understanding of the element first?"

Alex looked at the sky, answering his own doubts.

Meanwhile, the battle between Martial Saints still continued. Igor might have injured Ragna with his swords repeatedly and somehow managed to cut a few fingers. On the other hand, Igor had no heavy injury other than the numbness on his hand after repeatedly using his Sword Art.

Igor glanced at Atlas, who still proceeded in creating a rune that was capable of bringing down Ragna.

Ragna's body was still as strong as ever, even though it was already a few thousand years since he died. At the same time, the body also didn't die and was absorbing the Spiritual Energy naturally.

Igor had a hard time dealing with damage to his body unless he hit the same spot a few times. "As expected from a forbidden technique. If I use it, I will also have the skin as strong as a dragon, but I will walk between life and death every day."

He struck a few more times on Ragna's body and pinned him down before he heard.

"I have finished!" Atlas said out loud as he raised his wand up above.

"Rigora Almust Lavida!"

Chanting the spells, the blue lines on the ground shone brightly. Unbreakable blue chains appeared from the ground and flew toward Ragna and clung on his head, body, and all limbs.

*Roar!*

Ragna let out a roar while struggling to break free from these chains. However, with all the preparations Atlas had done, the chains should be able to bind a 10-Star Martial Saint without his Spiritual Energy and Martial Arts.

"It's time to put you down!" Atlas raised both of his hands, and the blue lines suddenly projected a certain diagram in the sky. The diagram has a blue color with an appearance like an array but less complex.

Igor immediately retreated to Atlas and watched his grandfather with a troubled look. "It's time to end it, Grandfather."

Atlas glanced at his expression for one last time before activating the rune.

The giant rune in the sky gradually compressed into one single point, creating a blue light ball. The blue light suddenly shot out a laser and illuminated the area, which was a bit dark, considering the sky was never bright to begin with.

*Roar!*

It seemed Ragna felt the power behind this light and afraid of this light. Unfortunately, he could struggle all he wanted but was unable to break free.

The light fell upon him and burned him alive. Ragna raised both of his hands to protect himself from this light, but it was unstoppable. The light slipped past through his defense and enveloped his whole body.

*Roar!* *Roar!*

A series of roars resounded across the region. Igor and Atlas closed their eyes for their respective reasons. For Igor, he just lost his grandfather for a good while Atlas had lost a friend. After all, Ragna was one of the first generation leaders. They were the ones who fought those people from Heavenly Continent side by side. Unfortunately, out of the three leaders, two of them were already dead, and he became alone.

*Roar!*

"!!!" When they were lamenting the fact that Ragna had died for good, a roar jolted their mind as they opened their eyes immediately.

In the middle of the field, Ragna had yet to die. However, both arms and one leg were gone. His body was also covered with blood. Surprisingly, even with that powerful attack, the ground wasn't affected at all. Even the dust didn't kick up from their places and appeared to be very calm.

"He is still alive?" Atlas gasped as his body flinched. He never thought someone would still be alive after getting struck by that rune, especially without Spiritual Energy and Martial Arts.

"Atlas, let me handle this." Igor stopped him and smiled.

The trace of sadness in that smile was the one that actually stopped Atlas on his track. This was the hardest part for Igor as he wanted to kill his grandfather for good… No, it could only be him who would deal the last blow. He nodded with a solemn expression. "Alright."

Igor didn't bring his sword with him as he walked toward Ragna with a calm face. "It's time to end this, grandfather."

*Roar!*

When Igor came close, Ragna tried to bite him, but Ragna punched him to the ground.

Ragna, who only had one leg and couldn't use Spiritual Energy, wouldn't be able to rise again. Igor pinned him on the ground with his body before raising both of his hands.

White light appeared on his hands and gradually turned into claws. In these claws contained a huge amount of Sword Intent and his beast aura.

"Unlimited Sword Claw!"

He stabbed Ragna's body with his claws, and the energy from the claws shredded Ragna into molecular levels. Even his fleshes weren't visible anymore, only his blood.

A droplet of tears came out on the corner of Igor's right eye as he looked up and said, "Thank you, Grandfather."

The memories flashed within his mind on how to fight, the happy family because there was no conflict and so on. His father died in the hand of his 'empty' grandfather. At first, he was angry and hated his grandfather. Yet, these memories prevented him.

He closed his eyes again and stood there for a while.
