180 Chapter 180: Claude vs Primal Sea
“The fuck? Who the hell are you?” Primal Sea muttered in confusion while looking at Claude in doubt
7th rank mages could feel whether a person is at the same rank as them or not. He could clearly feel that Claude is definitely not one of the 7th rank mages
However, Claude managed to use a supernatural power without the help of a mystic gem that only 7th rank mages could do
He also managed to calm the sea despite a 7th rank mage controlling it that is also something that only another 7th rank mage could do
No, Claude was even more exaggerated than that. Other mages would wrestle control of the water or block or evaporate it but Claude simply calmed the water and have it not attack him
This is not something that even 7th rank mages should be able to do
“Should we take this to the edge of the world?” Claude asks, ignoring the question thrown at him
Fighting here wouldn’t do the civilians well. Just the presence of his and Primal Sea’s magic alone is already more than enough to shatter the fabric of space
Who knows how many islands would be affected? On those islands, thousands to millions of lives are living. Not to mention, there is also a chance that the fight would affect even the other countries
That’s how powerful they were! Since 7th rank mages steal origin energy which was the very energy that a realm uses to support itself, it feels like using a smaller realm to attack earth!
The realm (origin energy) was smaller but if it collided with a bigger realm, the bigger realm would still suffer miserably. Much like how asteroids might only be a small fraction of earth’s size but the damage they could bring was simply devastating
“Answer me you bastard, who the hell are you?” Primal Sea repeated his question
As a man that is only interested in beauties, beauties, and beauties, he is not that aware of the things happening outside of his Blessed Land
After all, he is already a 7th rank mage. A person at the very apex of the world. Even a mage at his rank wouldn’t necessarily be able to kill him
Glory, wealth, and whatever. What does that have to do with him?
Since 7th rank mages could not advance in rank anymore, might as well enjoy life for as long as he could, right?
“If you want to know, follow me to the edge of the world or…” Claude replied impatiently with a hint of threat in his tone
The surrounding mana was triggered and Primal Sea could sense their vibration. It was as if the mana itself would follow Claude’s will
While Primal Sea could abduct women with almost no repercussions, fighting on the mainland and sinking continents on the other hand are a completely matter altogether
If he really cause such a catastrophe, the other mages wouldn’t just sit back and would gang up against him. The consequences would definitely not be light
As such, as much as he hated it, he still complied with Claude’s ‘request’
Primal Sea with a wave of his hand ripped the fabric of space to create a spatial portal that would lead him to the edge of the world
Claude naturally followed suit
“For your audacity, let me grant you dea—!”
Before Primal Sea could even finish his words, the space was instantly locked. He could breach the locked space but that would take some time that Claude definitely wouldn’t give to him
The man immediately waved his hand causing darkness to cover the surroundings. This darkness was simply not the absence of light
It could not only block one’s vision but also fool their other senses. Even if danger is literally in front of the victim, their exquisite danger sense might not be able to do anything
This situation has caused Primal Sea to frown. He had never seen someone as weird and bizarre as Claude. He doesn’t like this darkness surrounding him
Fortunately, it’s not like he cannot do something about it
Seeing this situation, Primal Sea summoned a projection of his Blessed Land above him but because of the darkness, he could only feel but not see it
“Let there be light!” Primal Sea muttered and with his fingertip as the source, a brilliant white light shone that dispelled the deep darkness
However, at the same time, it exposes the projection of his Blessed Land and with another wave of Claude’s hand, chains of light suddenly materialize from thin air
The chains of light rattled and either wrapped or penetrated the Blessed Land’s projection
While Claude wanted to save the women that were abducted and forced to stay inside the Palace, he always cared more about the bigger picture
Even if they die, he wouldn’t regret his actions today
“Fuck! What the fuck is this?!” Primal Sea curses after sensing that the connection he has with his Blessed Land was disrupted
It’s like the channel in which the power of his Blessed Land travels to be used by him was suddenly filled with mud that made it hard for the energy to flow in the channel
He had never experienced anything like this before and he doubt that even 7th rank mages could do such a thing
A 7th rank mage’s power comes from their Blessed Land, without it, they are not much different than a mage below the 7th rank. Since that was the case, how could it be a simple thing to block a mage’s connection with their Blessed Land
This situation has provoked Primal Sea much like the other mages that Claude had killed
His tactics were always the same but it was still extremely effective. There was no doubt about its effectiveness at all
“Damn it! Damn it!”
Primal Sea curses and urged his Blessed Land. He stirred his power causing the chains of light to shake violently. If given enough time, he could definitely destroy these shackles
Claude, however, wouldn’t be stupid enough to give him enough time. On his palm, one black and one white energy formed along with a magic circle
7th rank mages if they want to use stronger power, they would still rely on magic circles
However, the magic circles that they could use require more time, concentration, and energy to use
In a battle, using a magic circle is not worth it. As such, magic circles are extremely rarely used among them
But Claude is different. If it is this magic that only has a single effect, he could use it with greater ease as the earth itself would aid him
“[Yin-Yang Palm!]”
Claude moved at a rapid speed. He vanishes from one’s sigh and only appeared in front of Primal Sea. It was as if he teleported due to his movements speed
His palm that now has the image of the Yin-Yang symbol slammed on Primal Sea’s stomach
“Aarrgghh!!” The mage groaned in pain. He already forgot the last time he ever experienced pain. It might have been before he reached his current rank
When Claude pulled his arm back, a distorted image followed him. The image comes from Primal Sea’s stomach and it looks as if Claude stole it
Above them where the Blessed Land projection could be seen, a part of it was seemingly ripped out
“Y-you! My Blessed Land!” Primal Sea stared at Claude in shock before the shock turned into extreme rage
He didn’t expect that there would be a person in this world that could forcefully steal a portion of his Blessed Land. The very source of his great power!
His fury perfectly aroused and Primal Sea sacrificed another chunk of his Blessed Land
Water covered the chains of light and the water emitted a strong crushing force. In exchange for the destruction of the chains, Primal Sea was forced to sacrifice a portion of his Blessed Land that is not that big compared to other mages’ Blessed Land
As of right now, more than 1/4 of his Blessed Land was either stolen by Claude or used to break the chains of light
Primal Sea’s power definitely suffered because of that. His power dropped but now that the chains of light were broken, he could use his power more freely
He moved away from Claude, possibly a ‘trauma’ since when Claude was in front of him, the man stole a portion of his Blessed Land
Primal Sea stretched his arms on his side and it was as if he summoned an entire ocean. Water filled his surroundings before he moved his hands in front of him
The large body of water gathered at a single point. It was like seeing an entire ocean condensing into a single point
A waterball that contains an ocean’s worth of water on it, just how devastatingly powerful was that?
Even 6th fusion rank mages would be shredded to death without a doubt if such power was used against them
