Death… And Me

Chapter 195 - Don't Forget Me

They were right. Buran began to use both elements to manipulate the wood element.

"Hmph! So what if you know?!"

Right after saying that, the Wood Element spread around the ground with Buran's Spiritual Energy's help.

'Vine Forest!'

Hundreds of vines sprouted from the ground, quickly storming and Rean and Roan.

The twins tried to dodge. However, Rean was a step too slow, which was enough for one of the vines to attach to his leg. Rean immediately passed another order to his clone, who promptly used the second form of the Death Style to cut all the vines. Of course, he used his sword to cut it too. Roan also dodged the vines while using his clones to help Rean as well.

"Hehe! Do you think I will lose such a good change?!"

The ground all around Rean shined with bright yellow light for a moment. Right after, several Earth Spikes came from all sides while more and more vines locked Rean in place.

In the last moment, Rean contorted his body as well as he could. Also, he poured his entire Spiritual Energy into gathering Light Element to increase his strength. Thanks to that, he was able to dodge the majority of the Earth Spikes even in that situation. Unfortunately, two of them still impaled his body.

"Arrgh!"

Immediately, two enormous holes appeared in Rean's body. Right after, both Rean and Roan's Clones disappeared. Obviously, the Mirage Assault had been broken!

Roan was taken aback. However, he didn't stop and continued to rush at Rean. But right at that moment, Buran finally stepped outside of the ground.

"Where do you think you are going? He's already dead. Hahaha!"

Roan didn't lose his calm, though.

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

Buran saw that and almost laughed.

'Ground Shield!'

All the slashes hit an Earth Barrier that appeared between Roan and Buran. Buran didn't stop there. As soon as Roan's attack hit his shield, he punched the same shield in front of him as well. The shield then broke into several pieces that flew at Roan like bullets. Buran also used this chance to stepped forward to not give Roan time to recover. However, as soon as he gave the first step, he saw a ball of white light in front of him.

"What?!"

The ball immediately exploded like a flash grenade! That was a trick that Rean used all the way back in the Varen Tribe. It basically consisted of gathering Light Element in a single point and made it explode. It couldn't even be considered a skill to start with.

Simultaneously, Roan repeated the same attack again.

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon.'

Buran was shocked that Roan didn't retreat when he punched the shield. That's because it meant Roan bore with the rubble that flew at him. Sure enough, the light only lasted half a second, and as soon as it disappeared, Buran saw Roan's body full of injuries.

"Hmph! Trying to bring both of us down together? Not so easy!"

Although Roan ignored the damage, he was still somewhat slow. Buran saw that and immediately stomped the ground to create another Earth Shield. However, before the shield materialized, he received a Spiritual Sense Message from... Rean!

'How can you ignore the most awesome twin, me?'

"Elder Buran, behind!"

Okrin tried to warn him, but that it was too late!

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

This time, Buran didn't have his Earth Armor anymore. Also, his attention was entirely on Roan since he was sure that the damage he caused to Rean would definitely kill him. Last but not least, the ball of White Light made him focus his attention on Roan in front of him rather than the surroundings. Those three factors ended sealing his fate.

Without having the chance to even look behind, Rean's three swords pierce his head, heart, with the last one cutting his neck.

Until the moment his conscience faded away, he kept thinking.

'How is he still alive?!'

Going back to the moment Rean's body was pierced, it was true that he received two fatal injuries. His normal Light Element Healing wouldn't be able to help him recover in time to return to the battle either. However, Rean had said it when the twins used his Life Style for the first time.

'Hey, are you ready to try one of the skills I came up with?' (chapter 187, near the end.)

Yes, 'skills' in the plural. Rean had created another one during his time healing the members of the sect. His ability to lock down the Light Energy and stop the wastage wasn't good for increasing one's strength only.

During that moment of life and death, he immediately activated his second one.

'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery!'

Of course, although Rean called it Instant Recovery, it was not like his Injure would immediately disappear. Not to mention that Rean had been impaled by two of the Earth Spikes. He had to first remove the pillars from his body before the injuries could start to heal.

However, the Life Style Second Form was who knows how many times faster than normal Light Element Healing. It was to the point that only Rean could achieve this effect. Roan could also use the Second Form, but his healing speed would definitely not be as fast as Rean. Even the extra Light Element from Roan's White Star Sword wouldn't be able to overcome the difference. That being said, Rean was able to recover two fatal injuries in a matter of seconds!

In fact, it could be even quicker. Unfortunately, Rean could only stop the leakage of Light Element by around 70%. He still has to improve his proficiency a lot. Also, every % extra was more challenging to achieve than the last one. Rean knew that he would need a very long time to eliminate the wasted Light Element by 100%. Nonetheless, the effects were already heaven-defying by themselves.

As for the battle's result, another critical point couldn't be forgotten, the mistake caused by none other than Buran himself. He used several Earth Spikes at once to hit Rean. Although only two hit the target, the rest was still there. All those Earth Pillars then hid Rean while he healed his body.

Well, in fact, it couldn't really be considered a mistake from Buran. He at least saw when Rean was impaled by the two Earth Pillars. With such injuries, no one should have been able to recover. If it was anyone else, they would be incapable of battling anymore even if they didn't die straight away. Too bad that he had encountered Rean this day.

Okrin was frightened when he saw Buran's head flying. Without wasting a single second, he immediately turned around to flee. However, he didn't expect that Westren and Lana would block his path right at this moment.

"Two punny Foundation Establishments are trying to block my path? Die!"

However, both Lana and Westren didn't feel the least bit scared due to the cultivation difference. That's because they knew that Okrin was at the end of his energies. Not to mention his injuries.

As for Lana and Westren, they didn't use much energy when they were dealing with the Foundation Establishment enemies that came with Okrin. After all, their job was basically to help to hold them back while Rean finished them.

Sure enough, Okrin was able to suppress Lana and Westren, but he didn't have the strength to kill them anymore. Not to mention that the two were making sure to not let him run away. It would be a disaster if he could call reinforcements right now. After all, they could see that Rean and Roan were exhausted. They definitely couldn't go through such a battle anymore before recovering their energies.

Lana and Westren did their best to pin down Okrin. It was to the point that they even allowed themselves to get severe injuries in the process. As spent as okrin might be, he is still a Core Formation Realm cultivator while the siblings aren't.

Their battle continued for half a minute. Just as the siblings were reaching their limits, they received a Spiritual Sense message from Roan.

'You aren't so bad, after all.'

Okrin instincts also told him that he was in immense danger. He quickly looked behind, just in time to see Roan rushing at him.

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

Okrin's face paled. He then gritted his teeth tried to breakthrough the siblings' blockage by brute force.

'Wind Barrier!'

Okrin was almost entirely spent, so even his Wind Barrier was practically ineffective. The siblings' next attacks ended hitting his body as his Wind Barrier reduced only one-third of the attacks' power. However, he ignored the pain and the blood flowing from his body and tried to dash forward. Without a doubt, that required an enormous resolution.

Too bad that resolution alone wasn't enough. Roan was still much faster than him. The third form of the Death Style hit his body, leaving three more huge cuts behind. Finally, Okrin couldn't move anymore and fell on the ground, indignantly.

'Just what kind of monsters are those twins?'

That was his last thought before passing away.

Roan then looked at the body on the ground and took a deep breath. He was also badly injured. Nonetheless, just like Rean, he could use the Second Form of the Life Style. However, as mentioned before, his healing speed couldn't compare to Rean himself. That being said, he took a few more seconds to recover enough. The rest of the time was spent rushing at Okrin's location that was a little far away after the end of their battle against Buran.

Roan then looked at Lana and Westren, who were covering their injuries with their hands before saying.

"Take everything you can."

Rean quickly arrived on his side as well.

"I'm ready here too."

The four of them immediately departed after that. That was the right decision. A few minutes later, a few more groups arrived, following the previous battles' commotion. Rean's group definitely wouldn't be able to deal with that amount of cultivators with their injuries.
