“…”
“…”
Two and Three glanced at Nux with deadpan looks on their faces.
“Are you seriously going to fight like that…?”
In the end, Three was unable to take it anymore and questioned.
“Hmm? What’s the problem?” Nux questioned back with a small smile on his face.
Two’s lips twitched in annoyance, however, he knew better than anyone to not say anything.
Three, however, didn’t have that level of control and snapped.
“What’s wrong!?
Everything!
Everything is wrong! How the hell are you going to fight with us if you set your cultivation to Beginner Stage!?”
This wasn’t the first time when Nux had lowered his cultivation to fight against the two of them.
However, whenever he lowered it, he lowered it to Master Stage, he tried lowering it to Advance Stage as well but stopped doing that after trying it once. .
Since that day, he always sparred with them while limiting his cultivation to Master Stage.
However, today,
Today he has taken a step further.
Let alone Advance, he decreased his cultivation even more and set it to Beginner Stage!
Just how ridiculous is that!?
“Alright, let’s not waste much time,” he then raised his hand and pointed his fingers at two of them.
“Come.”
He challenged with a small smile on his face.
Two and Three felt their lips twitching, this was ridiculous, however, there was nothing they could do about it.
If they were ordered to fight, they will fight.
Two and Three then glanced at each other and nodded.
‘We will end this quickly and make him realize his mistakes.’
That was their plan.
The two of them dashed towards Nux as their dagger appeared in their hands.
A small smile appeared on Nux’s face and then, Black Coloured Mist came out of his hands.
“W-What is that?” Three muttered in surprise.
Nux, however, did not give her much time to react and the Black Mist rushed toward her.
“Back Off! That’s dangerous!”
Two warned.
He didn’t know what that Mist was, however, he knew it was scary, his danger senses, that he has honed after being an assassin for so long, were tingling.
Of course, Three was also an Assassin like him, her danger senses told her that something was wrong as well, however, she still couldn’t react in time and some of the Black Mist grazed her pinky finger.
“Uggh!”
She groaned in pain, she then glanced at her finger and saw that it had turned grey. However, this was not the worse part, the worst part was that the grey part was growing at a pace visible to the eyes.
Three panicked, however, in the end, she was still an assassin, she quickly regained her senses and used her Mana to stop it from spreading.
The Mist, however, was scarier than she imagined, the Mana she was using to suppress the Mist was being devoured by it.
‘I need to push it out of my body, I can’t just stop it with my Mana alone!’
Three thought inwardly and then she used even more Mana to push the Mist out of her finger.
Her finger finally regained its colour, everything was fine now.
Everything, but Three.
She looked at Nux with a horrified look on her face.
“W-What the hell is that!?”
Nux’s smile grew.
“My new ability.”
Three’s eyes widened in surprise, however, before she could say anything, a large amount of Black Mist came out of Nux’s body.
“The spar isn’t over yet, you two.
Try not to be defeated by a Beginner Stage Cultivator.”
Nux muttered and Two’s lips twitched in frustration and annoyance.
However, Three didn’t have the same expression as him, Three knew, Three had dealt with that Mist, it was definitely lethal.
“Do not underestimate that Mist, once it touches your body, it will spread all over, also, don’t try to stop it with Mana, it has the property to Devour Mana as well, the best method is to use a little more Mana and push it out of your body.”
“No, that is not the best method.” Two shook his head with a smile on his face.
“Huh? What do you mean?”
Two’s smile widened and he continued,
“The best method is to avoid that annoying Mist and defeat the man who is controlling it.”
Then Two dashed towards Nux at a speed at which no Beginner Stage Cultivator would be able to react.
Even if Nux was not actually Beginner Stage Cultivator and could see his movement, with his cultivation restricted, there is no way his body would react, Two just needed to get close to him and place his dagger on his neck.
Nux, however, had different plans, the Mist around him moved and covered his entire body like a shield.
Then before Two could get close to him, Two tentacles formed with Devouring Mist moved and attacked him.
Two jumped back and dodged, however, before he could be happy, a third tentacle was launched towards him, he dodged that as well however, the fourth tentacle attacked him.
Two was forced to dodge and jump back, this only ended when Two was already very far from Nux and there was a considerable distance between the two of them.
“W-What the hell!? What’s the range of that annoying Mist!?” Two questioned in frustration.
“100 meters,” Nux answered with a smile on his face.
Two and Three’s eyes widened in surprise as they glanced at Nux, however, Nux wasn’t done yet.
“Not only that, but the best part is that I do not need Mana to control the Devouring Mist. So if you two are counting on the fact that I will eventually run out of Mana and won’t be able to control the Mist anymore, forget about it.”
Two and Three blinked as they glanced at each other.
A range of 100 meters and no Mana consumption.
Didn’t that mean that…
They were fucked?
“Two and Three, think of something as soon as you can, otherwise, you two will be making a new record today,
And that is to be defeated by a Beginner Stage Cultivator.”
