Jacob's attack was suddenly disrupted by powerful soul waves, and his visions were even blank for a moment. When he recovered, the person in front of him was already gone, and Jacob suddenly felt danger from above him.
At this moment, something sharp suddenly penetrated his left chest, and then powerful shockwaves were released from his body, threatening to burst his body!
Jacob didn't remember how long it had been since he was wounded like this?!
He quickly focused his fire aura on suppressing the shockwaves and maneuvered around to get rid of this weapon in his body. He just gets rid of it when another soul magic spell rattles his mind.
'Even under this pressure, this guy is so strong! I shouldn't have underestimated a three steps of legend expert!' Jacob thought as a sense of alarm buzzed all over his body, and he knew another attack was coming.
"Autarch, I'm about to release the puppets we saved up. Distract him!" Jacob quickly ordered before three whale race puppets appeared from his pendant.
"What!?" The other guy was shocked as he was about to thrust his spear when those five giant whale race members appeared out of nowhere and released powerful magic attacks!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe surrounding water began to compress, making the surrounding pressure even worse. At this moment, Jacob was finally able to land on his feet, and his mind recovered. The runic lines around his arms and feet suddenly shimmered in a crimson hue, and the hole in his chest began to recover.
Jacob noticed that the amount of cursed blood stored in his body was quickly depleting, making him emit killing intent as only he knew just how hard it was to collect this blood. He didn't seem surprised by the healing effect, though, since he had long discovered this property of the cursed blood.
"Sound Tremor!" At this moment, the other guy activated another spell when he noticed Jacob recovering and those whales gathering blue magic power around his fist.
Jacob, this time, didn't dare to take this spell head-on, and he decided to use the soul force to cover his ears. Although he didn't know if this would work or not, for sreason, he tried and then quickly swam in another direction to escape from this spell range.
Although those whale puppets were at the peak of the unique rank, they were still nowhere near the level of a beyond-unique rank expert. The moment the Soul Tremor landed on their bodies, they were ripped into shreds.
However, Jacob almost dodged this spell, and because of his soul force, the soul waves didn't affect him at all. His eyes shimmered with faint blue light as he looked towards the cloaked man and noticed the boots he was wearing; they were clearly streasure to move around the water effectively.
The space they were fighting in was only 50X50 in size, and Jacob had a clear advantage when it cto reaching his 3.3-meter-tall enemy. Since he discovered that his soul force was able to tackle the sound magic, he has no more misgivings.
He again charged towards the cloaked man, his swords shimmering in blue light, and the surrounding water started to revolve.
"Hmph, I don't know what kind of tricks you are using, but it's all futile, Soul Shift!" He coldly scoffed.
He still thought Jacob hadn't learned his lesson and wanted to charge right at him. He launched another spell, and he prepared his spear to attack him again. This time, he even stuck skind of talisman on the spear shaft, making the spear shimmer in a menacing purple lightning.
He wanted to finish Jacob off because he was getting a bad feeling about him because of the puppets he had just used.
However, this time, something unexpected happened. The Sound Shift, a magic spell that could directly disrupt someone's movements by affecting their sense of direction and even create an illusion, didn't work on Jacob at all.
In a sense, sound magic falls into the category of spiritual magic, and since Jacob has already awakened the soul force, which was the most powerful force of spiritual magic, it will not affect him unless he can also use soul force with his soul magic
—it won't affect Jacob at all!
Jacob had never fought with someone who could affect his mind, especially after achieving the soul force. But now that he did, he discovered another property of the soul force.
Caught by surprise, Jacob's sword directly slashed around his neck, but as someone who was also versatile in combat despite being a spirit magic user, the cloaked man quickly sifted his body by releasing sound ripples from his feet.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, the attack still landed on his shoulder, and the powerful rune suddenly shimmered beneath his cloak, and a metallic boom rang when Jacob's powerful attack landed on the armor.
"Ahhhh…"
The armor shattered, and a deep cut imbued with water spirit magic appeared, starting from his shoulder all the way to his stomach. Blood dyed the water as he screamed in pain.
For the first time, he felt the fear of death enveloping him. He had almost forgotten this feeling since stepping into the Beyond Unique Rank and was so close to achieving the Inception Legend Rank.
Since he knew things were going sideways, he didn't hesitate to take out a teleportation talisman and instantly activated it.
"Just you wait!" He left these words filled with hatred behind before he vanished!
However, Jacob didn't seem frustrated by it at all. In fact, if he wanted to, he could've easily beheaded him because he was too close to him. Because of the pain and surprise, the cloaked man didn't notice and thought that he was fast enough to escape.
But what he failed to notice was that the moment his armor was pierced, an extremely fine dark streak entered his body from his wound before he was teleported!
Jacob's eyes shimmered in a crimson hue as all the blood in the water started to enter his body. He could feel the dense vitality of that cloaked man's blood.
His lips curled up in a bloodthirsty smile as he muttered, "I don't think I need to wait since you'll be coming here on your own very soon!"
