Chapter 617: Chapter 617. Angel's Overwhelming Strength.

**********************************************************

After the massive explosion, everyone was horrified. The strength of that explosions was nothing to scoff at.

Angel, holding a shield that covered half her body and a long sword, slowly descended from the air, looking at the center of the explosion. 'Hm, she managed to defend herself.

The mermaid reappeared, surrounded by a water sphere. Even then, parts of her skin had severe burns, and her hair was disheveled.

The mermaid looked at Angel and shouted with an aura burst. "[Ocean Swallowing Body]."

A blue aura encased her, and her strength rose to a completely new different level. With a wave of her hand, an elegant sword appeared in her grasp.

The second Angel's feet touched the floor, the mermaid's body disappeared and arrived at Angel's side.

Angel's soft blue eyes gained a serious glint as a massive wave of water followed the sword. "[Prismatic Energy Burst]."

A multicolored aura spread around her as she activated [Prismatic Crystal Shield] one more time.

BANG!

This time, the crystal wall cracked at the mermaids' hit.

In the meantime, Angel created distance and summoned another formation. "[Shattering Crystal Core Formation]."

Her formation nodes appeared in the hundreds with a diameter of one meter and surrounded the area around her.

The mermaid waved her arm, summoning a massive tsunami.

The moment the water touched the crystal cores, they exploded with a deafening sound, bursting the tsunami into pieces.

The mermaid frowned. 'A minefield. This girl is much stronger than I expected.'

Angel saw the mermaid standing in place, so she didn't lose a chance to attack one more time. "Standing there while pondering in front of me? You are too confident, Innate skill: [Shattering Prismatic Light]."

Her [Glass Heart Shield] burst with light, and a massive beam of glass with physical properties similar to light flashed toward the mermaid.

The mermaid slapped her fishtail and slashed with her sword. "Petty tricks. [Ocean Wall]."

The glass-light beam slammed into the wall of water, and the mermaid's eyes widened. The massive wall burst open as if a bomb had exploded, creating a circular hole, and the beam continued toward her unimpeded. 'Shit.'

She used body-strengthening skills and placed her sword in front of her before the beam struck her.

BOOOM!

The mermaid grunted as her sword got blown away, and the massive attack landed on her chest like a meteor.

Her body was blasted away, cratering almost five hundred meters away.

Angel looked toward the mermaid's crashing point and accumulated energy while muttering. "Body cultivators are a bit tough."

The crashing point exploded, with the mermaid flying through the air rapidly while blood gushed from the heavy wounds on her chest.

"[Seven Waves Dance]."

The mermaid's speed increased, trying to close the distance one more time.

Angel chanted again, glass cores and lines surrounding the floor before herself. "[Prismatic Bloodthirsty Golem Formation]."

The usual clear glass became bloody red as the bright crimson aura around Angel deepened, her eyes flickering between blue and green colors while the roots of her beautiful blonde hair became bright red.

The mermaid reached fifty meters before Angel, dodging the previously deployed mines, but her heart suddenly twisted, making her feel ominous.

She hastily slashed to the right with all her bodily strength, ripping the air apart with just her brute strength.

BANG!

Her sword clashed with a sharp red claw and sliced through, landing on the chest of a female humanoid red glass golem.

With a loud explosion, the golem was destroyed, but by the time she looked around, dozens of those creatures were charging toward her.

The worst part was that they didn't trigger the mines when touching them. 'I have yet to land a hit on her! I can't lose like this.'

The mermaid let out a low shout, making her aura increase to the peak, and entered a brutal melee with the golems.

The Epoch Core Mermaid slashed, punched, slapped with her tail, and dodged the golems around her.

Angel looked at her with interest in her blue-green eyes, a hint of battle intent slowly appearing. 'That big sister is quite strong.'

Mirrory commented. 'How do you feel?'

Angel smiled. 'Perfectly fine. My energy consumption is regulated, my energy control feels sublime, and my mind is clear and calm.'

Mirrory smiled. 'Perfect. Fight a few more minutes to refine yourself. She is qualified to temper your combat senses and the skills we learned. Enter melee combat after she destroys all the golems. I will guide you for a few seconds. Try to defeat her using melee skills.'

Angel nodded. 'Okay.'

The mermaid's battle experience was clear to all as the golems were smashed one after another, shattering in red crystal dust.

After defeating the last golem, she saw white light flash around Angel as she charged straight toward her at vertiginous speeds.

The mermaid's eyes were set ablaze, and she shouted. "You want to exchange hits in melee combat? Junior, you are too young!"

The mermaid's sword and Angel's sword clashed.

CLANG!

Angel felt as if a mountain had struck her weapon, pushing her backward for tens of meters.

The mermaid appeared right above her, swinging down her sword. Angel's blue-green eyes flashed with light as she activated [Brilliant Light Steps], dodging the attack and swinging at her fishtail. "[Light Severing Sword]."

The mermaid barely dodged, having a few scales chipped off, and turned around to slash toward Angel one more time, her sword shining with a deep blue light.

Angel met the powerful attack with her shield while lowering her stance.

BANG!

A blue ripple spread around, but Angel didn't move.

The next five minutes was a violent exchange between the two. With a steady position, Angel expertly used her sword and shield, fighting equally with the mermaid.

Our girls' eyes shone with admiration while Yasenia's tail was wagging fast enough to create a small gale behind her.

The mermaid shouted. "Girl, even if our strength is matched, my energy is thousands of times more abundant."

Angel smirked. "Silly big sister."

Then, Mirrory's voice entered her mind. 'This is good enough. Finish her.'

The blonde girl activated another of her innate skills. "[Crimson Crystal Heart]."

Her blood rushed around her body as a massive wave of energy flowed through her meridians.

BOOOM!

Her aura was like a hurricane, pushing the mermaid a few steps back. The elder's eyes widened as Angel's aura became otherworldly and highly profound.

A beautiful bright red color swallowed Angel's hair while her eyes shone like emeralds. Her disposition became solemn as her presence and red aura multiplied.

Angel floated a few meters into the air, and then she spoke indifferently, with a completely different tone from usual. "[Prismatic Glass Weaver Domain], [Glass Evocation Intent Level One]."

Hundreds of meters around her shone with multicolored lights as glass prisms of different shapes and colors manifested.

It looked like the arena became a world made of iridescent glass and red energy.

The mermaid's heart sank, and cold sweat flowed down her back. She quickly rushed and attacked Angel.

However, Angel waved her sword and chanted her third innate skill. "[Mirror World]."

All the prisms turned into conductive glass structures, and countless light beams shot out from her body.

The mermaid felt like the world had momentarily fallen under Angel's control as her soul shuddered with fear for her life. 'Protect myself at all costs!'

The next instant, the World was illuminated. At the same time, all the glass created by Angel burst with blinding light, engulfing the arena in a massive explosion as countless lasers and energy beams fell onto the mermaid.

BOOOM!

The mermaid screamed in pain as her body was blasted flying. All the energy beams pierced through whatever defenses she placed as if they were fragile walls.

The glass and light energy combination not only charred large patches of her skin but also sliced many bone-deep wounds.

The spectators opened their eyes after the blinding explosion and looked at the dignified Angel floating above the mermaid with her long sword tip resting on the mermaid's throat. "You lost."

The red-haired and green-eyed Angel had an indifferent face as she said those words. The mermaid looked at her with unwillingness, but she eventually said. "I lost."

Angel dispelled all her skills, her hair returning to the glossy blonde hair as her eyes regained the soft blue color.

Then, she flew toward Yasenia with a sweet smile and dove her face right between her breasts. "Yasenia, I won!"

The dragoness hugged her baby tightly and picked her up to bathe her face with kisses. "You did so well, baby. I love you."

Angel mewled sweetly as Yasenia's affection softly surrounded her like a soft blanket, making her melt in the sweet and floral-smelling dragoness's arms.

Yasenia threw a pill jar toward the mermaid.

The elder caught it and tilted her head. Yasenia smiled. "That's a high-level heaven-ranked pill. You can use it now or reserve it for later. After all, your wounds are severe but not deep enough to need treatment immediately."

The mermaid's eyes widened in surprise. "High-level heaven-ranked?"

Yasenia nodded. "The wounds made by my girl are not light, so it is normal for me to give you a present as compensation. I hope you don't resent us."

The mermaid blinked a few times and then nodded slowly. "I will remember this goodwill."

Then, as the Jade Thunderbird Elder did, she floated upward and flew away.

Yasenia's head turned toward the other three and asked. "Would you like to continue fighting?"

Naturally, if they retreated now, it would be seen as cowardly, so they could only bite their teeth and nod.

The Deep-Sea Shark woman looked at Andrea and spoke. "Please, instruct me."

Unlike before, there was a solemn tone in her words. After Angel displayed her strength, they wouldn't underestimate the remaining three.

Andrea nodded. "Let's have an honorable fight."

She had her dragon helmet on with her black armor, so she looked like a demonic dragon knight. Moreover, the large, heavy halberd with the wide ax edge shone dangerously.

Andrea has altered the design slightly to change it from a pure halberd to one with a shortened staff and a wider ax, a shorter but sharper and wider spearhead, and a back edge.

It was between two and two and a half meters in length, with a quarter of the weapon being the head.

It was a design that would be impossible to carry for mortals, but with Andrea's current bodily strength, it was not a problem.

Andrea spoke before the battle started. "Elder, my skill kit is extremely dangerous and deadly. Please do not try to push yourself. I would feel guilty if I accidentally killed you."

The Shark woman blinked and then frowned. "Do not underestimate me, junior."

Andrea sighed. "I'm not..."

Then, she stepped forward, lowered her stance, and spun her large weapon three times before lodging the pole beneath her arm with one arm extended forward. "Attack when you are ready."

Yasenia, looking from the side, almost squealed. 'Darling is so cool~! Kya!'

Well, Yasenia was the number one Andrea fan in the Universe.

The Shark Elder stomped the ground after summoning a giant battle ax and rushed toward Andrea without using auras.

Naturally, Andrea also didn't use any and matched her opponent.

Halber and Ax collided.

BANG!

Andrea was pushed back five steps, but her stance was solid, and her face below the draconic helmet was calm.

The tall shark woman released a quick and powerful barrage, but Andrea kept blocking, parrying, and misdirecting the attacks while he was pushed back.

The Deep-Sea Shark Elder was naturally superior body-wise, so Andrea was at a disadvantage.

The female shark sneered. "If this is all, I'm quite disappointed."

Andrea answered calmly. "Then, I will step it up a notch. [Obliterating Chromosphere]."

BOOM!

A massive heat wave engulfed the aura, increasing the temperatures so much that people in the spectating area felt the heat on their faces as if they had placed themselves before a bonfire.

In the arena, a juggernaut made of magma appeared, looking like a knight that descended straight from an infernal land.
