Chapter 278 - Breaking My Limits
-----
Due to ending weakened, the pair quickly retreated into ethereal forms and saved themselves inside of Gustav\'s soul, leaving the rest to him and Xijun, and well, the three powerful beasts at the side of Gustav, Cuco, Arachne, and Wisp!
A kilometer away from where their fight was going on, another massacre was happening as the Sect Master, now completely taken over by the Dimensional Ruler of the Abyssal Dimension was being overwhelmed by a rain of Holy and Demonic Spirits that were constantly exploding and bombarding him!
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"Nnnngghh…! I-I can barely advance…!" muttered the entity, the endless charge that Gustav was unleashing over the entity was relentless! It was as if he had endless energy!
And well, thanks to the Mana Factory inside his Divine Realm, such a thing was possible. He had been accumulating insane quantities of magical items and materials for all this time and piling them up to use them in such a moment.
Millions of items and materials were now being consumed into their most ethereal form inside this factory, thrown into the primordial blue furnace which consumed everything and turned it back to their most primordial form… Mana!
Like this, aside from his completely insane regeneration speed, Gustav was pushing through by consuming materials and had even planned to consume gold, hero feathers, and hero fragments if necessary, or even Orbs! He wasn\'t going to let this monster get away, and he was going to fend it off at all costs!
Xijun, after being helped out by Vudia, flew back to Gustav after she saw that Vudia\'s power and Ervas strength were enough to eliminate the Elder, and was as of now, shaping and learning new powers as she used the techniques, she learned in the Ocean Sect!
After simply acquiring these techniques, Xijun had felt like her powers were evolving constantly. This wasn\'t an exaggeration! It felt as if by acquiring these techniques, Xijun had unlocked three whole Skill Trees, and she was now steamrolling through all the learnable Skills through her sheer talent and amazing amount of Mana.
Water Breathing Technique suddenly evolved as Xijun\'s breath turned even calmer than before, yet raging and overwhelmingly domineering, her entire body suddenly exuded a gigantic aura as her metabolism was suddenly skyrocketed!
"Water God\'s Breathing Art…"
FLAAAAASSSSHHH!!!
Gustav\'s eyes opened wide as he saw Xijun suddenly learn a new Art through using that little technique as the starting point! He had already see her do it before using the Fisherman\'s Harpoon, but this was still surprising.
And then, she continued to develop the Ocean Turtle Shell Technique, which helped the user generate shells of an ocean turtle around their body to defend.
However, she evolved such technique countless times into arriving into its peak…!
FLASH!
A sudden azure armor grew around all of her small body, covering every inch and only leaving her face uncovered, her long silvery-white hair waved by the powerful oceanic winds that her entire aura produced!
"Ocean\'s God Divine Armor!"
Gustav looked at Xijun\'s amazing armor with shock, the armor alone was exuding a gigantic amount of power, she had now powered up!
He smiled at her as he looked back at their adversary, the monstrous entity from the Abyssal Dimension was relentless, he had already begun to unleash massive shockwaves of abyssal darkness everywhere, trying to take down Gustav\'s spirits before they could explode and failing miserably until its one hundredth attempt!
FLAAAAAAASSSSH!
The massive shockwave of darkness finally intercepted the thousands of spirits as they exploded in midair, without being able to reach it anymore!
The monstrous entity felt joyous as it unleashed an explosion of darkness from its foot, flying towards Gustav at a ridiculous speed, resembling a line of black color that reached him in less than a second!
But Gustav was going to let him get away with it?
His entire body was already overflowing with not just a few dozen, but thousands of summoned spirits stacking up countless effects and ridiculous amounts of stats!
While his allies had a smaller limit to this, Gustav had evolved his Summoning powers to such ridiculous extents that he could even allow himself to powerup in such ways!
The countless of spirits resonated inside of his body, as there were a few other thousand more inside of his very spear, which had shapeshifted and turned into an even more majestic weapon due to that!
CLAAAAASSSSSSHHH!
The black weapons made by the entity of darkness clashed against Gustav\'s enormous and glorious golden and black spear, shocking the entity!
"Y-You…! What kind of power?!" it asked in shock, he felt fear!
Yes, a Dimensional Ruler felt feat over a being countless times weaker than him!
Why?
Well, because he was defying logic itself, and his power… somehow, was beginning to compare to him?
However, the entity was only panicking, it was rather obvious that against a Dimensional Ruler not at full strength, as it was only manifesting over an unsuitable vessel, that Gustav would hold a greater advantage!
And he made it clear with a prideful aura around his body, a roaring golden dragon made of rainbow flames suddenly emerged out of his chest, roaring loudly, it was his Beast Spirit!
"GROOOOOARRRR!!!"
"Ungh?! A Beast Spirit from that one dimension?!"
The entity was left surprised as he saw a power that shouldn\'t even belong to this dimension coming out of Gustav\'s chest!
"I will show you the difference between you and I…" said Gustav, his stare suddenly turned utterly diabolic as it felt like he had become the abyss that shouldn\'t be stared for too long!
The powers that he had been given by the Great One Above all Creation were not to scoff at! At this point, Gustav was developing his powers to the level that he had reached a turning point!
The two clashed against one another in a constant exchange of blows, the dark weapons of the dark entity were powerful and left large wound over Gustav, sometimes even leaving enormous holes over his armor and body, but they quickly regenerated back unnaturally! He was not a human anymore!
"By summoning back my own flesh lost with my wounds, I can regenerate endlessly… And by summoning back the energy I lost with his blows, I can regain lost energy…"
A sudden realization came into Gustav\'s mind!
