Chapter 58
Standing up in the air, Omis cast his gaze at the quiet battlefield. Countless eyes stared back at him with mixed emotions full of fear awe and respect, one fight however only momentarily halted before resuming, Tizzy against Purple Ghost.
*BOOOM*
Shockwaves from their clash pushed all cultivators away from them, yet Omis stared at them ominously, he brandished his sword and took a deep breath before closing his eyes.
His surroundings slowly disappeared, as he rotated his cultivation base. His figure blurred before it merged with his surroundings completely vanishing from the battlefield.
Seeing Omis's figure disappear, Addi's stoic expression loosed as he cracked a small grin before moving to another side of the battlefield and continuing his onslaught.
Tizzy and Purple Ghost who were still engaged in their fight were not paying attention to their surroundings, Tizzy's dark black Qi looked frightening as it surrounded his knight armor.
His figure turned hazy for a second as he left after images behind while shooting towards his opponent, he brought his giant hammer down from his right but it was met with a purple ghost's saber who deflected it before pointing his finger at him.
Unconsciously, Tizzy titled his head to the side dodging the small beam of light that shot out of purple ghost's finger as it continued towards the ground before exploding with a bang and leaving behind a giant crater on the ground below.
Suddenly a small rift opened from under purple ghost as a sword emerged from it aiming at his private parts, causing him to open his eyes wide in shock as he retreated back in reflex.
"Who?!" He shouted, yet before he could get a reply another rift opened behind his back from where emerged yet another sword aimed at his head, yet this one's aura was that of God realm cultivator causing purple ghosts old heart to start beating as he brought out an old brush and waved it at the sword creating a barrier that blocked the attack.
Yet before he managed to retreat, Tizzy's hammer came crashing at his open back causing him to cough blood as he was sent flying in the air straight to Omis who suddenly emerged from the void with a wicked smile, he stabbed his sword with unbelievable speed and precision at Purple ghost's heart, who astonishing was able to twist his body to avoid getting stabbed in any severe injuries, causing Omis's sword to stab at his side sending his Qi into his body.
It was then that Purple ghost's body started growing bigger forcing Omis to bring out his sword and retreat leaving behind a gaping wound in his side.
"YOU BASTARD! YOU DARE LAY HAND ON THE MASTER'S SERVANT!" He shouted with a crazed expression as his body continued growing bigger and bigger until it became a disgusting round ball of flesh, yet his aura only continued to grow higher and higher.
Time seemed to slow to a crawl as Omis saw what was happening, his expression changed as he quickly turned to search for Addi, before spotting him at the edge of the battlefield wreaking havoc in the 'Hunter's' ranks.
Turning his attention to another side of the messy battleground, Omis was able to see Leyla and Ron holding their own against multiple enemies.
No one seemed to notice what was about to happen but him and Tizzy who had already retreated inside the city shield as he took control over to reinforce it.
Slashing his sword at the air in front of him, Omis quickly jumped into the void before emerging at Leyla and Ron's side.
They looked back at Omis who suddenly appeared next to them stunned, his hands shot forward grabbing both of their collars before dragging them inside the void portal as their enemies attacks were unable to reach them because the gate closed.
At the edge of the battlefield, Omis's figure appeared once more next to Addi who merely glanced at him before shooting inside the void gate as it closed after him.
*BOOOOOOOM*
Moments after the void gate closed, a tremendous explosion rocked the battleground instantly killing thousands of people, from both sides and sending thousands more with severe injuries.
Back inside the city, a void crack opened as Omis's figure came crashing towards the ground coughing blood, Addi shot right after him as he grabbed him before he hit the ground and gently set him down, Leyla and Ron were the last to come out, both of their faces were as pale as a sheet.
"You idiot! You shouldn't have held the space alone, I could have helped!" Shouted Addi as he brought out a pill from his storage and fed it to Omis.
"Hurry up and meditate, i'll help you rid your body of the frost energy." He added as Omis sat down in a lotus position with Addi sitting behind him channeling his Qi from his palms unto his back.
Leyla turned her face towards the sky where Tizzy and the three God realm cultivators were positioned as they controlled the barrier so it could continue protecting the city.
Bringing his attention back to the city, countless wounded cultivators were littered across the ground, some missing a limb others missing more than just one.
Right outside the city was a giant cliff caused by the earlier explosion.
"R-Ron, God realm cultivators are scary..." She muttered as she grabbed Ron's robe.
"En, you are once again correct as usual Leyla." he nodded unconsciously with a solemn expression.
*Woosh*
With a loud whoosh, Li's figure landed next to the group as he looked towards Omis who was meditating, and Adi who was helping him heal before nodding, he then turned his attention to Leyla and Ron who both had pale faces before throwing two pills at them, which Ron managed to skilfully catch.
"This should help with your injuries." he said before shooting back to the sky.
"Thank you." Ron muttered before throwing the pill into his mouth and feeding one to Leyla.
"Ron, a lot of people just died right?" She asked.
"En."
"A lot of them were our people right?"
"En."
"D-Did the God realm old man die?" She asked nervously.
Ron simply shook his head indicating that he did not know.
"It would be for the best if he did, but I doubt it's that easy."
"Ron..." She turned to look at him before continuing.
"I'm scared...I don't want their souls anymore..."
Smiling he ruffled her hair before replying.
"Silly child, I won't let anything happen to you."
