Chapter 2426 Breakthrough Peak Grandmaster
BANNNG BANNNG BANNNG
In the first second, only a hundred-some spears have clashed against my s.h.i.+elds, but in the second second, nearly a thousand spears have clashed against my s.h.i.+elds.
They possess twice the momentum of the first hundred spears.
It only took a second to clash against the tiny sphere of my s.h.i.+elds that I had intentionally kept small so fewer attacks would clash against me.
With so many spears clas.h.i.+ng, a huge torrent of frost energy begins to come inside me. It is all thanks to the amazing runes I have that I bear to take such a huge amount of energy; if it had been anyone else in my place, they would have exploded a second ago.
I have designed my s.h.i.+elds to use the maximum of this ability, but unfortunately, despite such amazing, they could let me harness the maximum potential of my runes, and the culprit of that is my body.
It can not handle the amount of energy that my runes could consume at their highest, and due to that, even I don't know the true limit of my runes, but from what I have observed since their creation; they could absorb energy that even ten of me wouldn't able to bear.
I tried to find a way to solve this problem, but it was not easy, considering all the answers lead to my veins, and tampering with the veins is one of the biggest taboos there is for a pract.i.tioner; the slightest mistake and one would turn a cripple.
Though, the elemental veins of Camphor had given me some hope. Still, it is only hope, and it might not be able to produce any result, considering the thing I will be dealing with are my own veins.

Five seconds pa.s.sed, and more than half of the spears had clashed against my s.h.i.+eld, bringing so much energy that it began getting close to my limit. The power had truly surprised me, as I had not throught it was this strong.
Still, it had lost the chance; it might have been able to do something if it had attacked me with its full power without holding back and had not wasted any time talking.
Buzz!
Now, it is too late; the strengthening energy has finally been released from my core, and now, it is being released in every part of my body and soul.
I could feel the thickest strengthening energy I had ever felt; it is thick as honey and has countless crystals. They are everywhere in this thick, strengthening energy; some of them look big as a rice grain, and whenever they merge inside me, I would my strength increases by a leap.
There are very few strengthening crystals of this size in the strengthening energy; if I had gotten a hundred of them and nothing else, I would still have gotten the power to kill this Frost Lizardman.
I will get those strengthening crystals; I will just have to make do with the current strengthening energy. I am sure the moment I kill this Frost Lizardman, I will get many more strengthening crystals of that size.

As the strengthening energy began to merge into me, the pressure on me started to lesson at a visible speed. By the time only a thousand spears had remained, the pressure had been halved by the 70%, and it was still reducing at incredible speed.

The last thousand spears clashed against my s.h.i.+elds, leaving only icy dust behind; like all the thousands of spears before them, they were not able to break my s.h.i.+elds apart.
"Like I said, Hrata; just so-so!" I taunted directly; there was no need to keep my attacks veiled anymore.
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" It shouted as my taunt affected it to the deepest level. Our intelligence had said this b.a.s.t.a.r.d is very prideful, and its earlier behavior is proof of that. The taunts on it got much better results than I would have gotten from the other Grimm Monster.
"Flood of Frost!"
It shouted as a powerful icy aura shot out of its body that it had formed a small icy domain around it. It seemed like my words stunned it more than I had expected; the small icy domain had appeared due to its loosening control over its power.
Still, it looked amazing in it.
Like a champion of G.o.d standing in a world of snow with a phantom of its G.o.d behind it, if I had the talent to paint, I would have definitely painted this scene, but alas, I do not, thus having to settle for taking the photo sneakily.
The attack materialized just as it said its name and it is might; a gigantic flood of frosty sharp icy appeared below it before it came at me.
The flood was a little slower than the spears but not much as it took barely a second to arrive next to my small sphere of s.h.i.+elds and before enveloping it.
BANNNG
A Loud bang rang out as the frost flood clashed into my s.h.i.+elds before enveloping them.
The clash was so powerful that it had shaken me on my spot, and after that came the huge amount of energy from my s.h.i.+elds.
Even with continuous strengthening of strengthening energy, I am feeling suffocated; if I did not have the boosts from strengthening energy, this attack would have had came very close to destroying my s.h.i.+elds.
CLANNNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG
The huge sharp icy crystals crashed against my s.h.i.+elds, trying to tear them apart each second, but they were not able to get even a single scratch on it.
A few seconds pa.s.sed, and the attack of flood began to wane while my s.h.i.+elds continued to get stronger and stronger by the time the sign of frost vanished; I had also digested all the strengthening energy and reached the peak of Grandmaster cla.s.s.
"Hrata, you have disappointed me; I thought you would at least be able to make some cracks on my s.h.i.+elds, but it seemed like I have hoped too much from you," I said with a disappointed sigh and waved my hand, which instantly made the s.h.i.+elds disappeared.
Now that I have reached the peak of Grandmaster cla.s.s, it is time I finish it off and get that juicy bloodline of it.
