Chapter 821 - Darlene's Battle

Since Darlene reached the Late-stage Preliminary Accession Transcendent, she had yet to test her strength in battle properly.

The army of Lesser Demons will do just fine as her practice targets.

'Very well. As you wish, young lady,' Tak-si agreed to her request.

Shortly after, Darlene dashed forward toward the Bone Sea and raised her feet slightly higher just as it was about to step into the Bone Sea without losing momentum.

In that instance, the space suddenly warped underneath her feet, forming a solid ball of compressed air before she stomped on it.

Boom…

The sphere of compressed air exploded with a rebound force against the weight of Darlene's step, immediately propelling her higher into the sky like a spring.

Spatial Step!

Boom… Boom… Boom…

With each Spatial Step successfully performed, she sprung forward with increasing momentum and alarmed the dark faes fleeing in her direction.

"Someone is rushing towards us!" a dark fae cried.

However, the dark faes' alerted states abruptly ended when Darlene simply shot past them from below, gliding over the sea surface.

Puchi!

Darlene stabbed her Tier-6 Poison Dagger into a Low-rank Lesser Demon's forehead before the Low-rank Lesser Demon could react.

She came flying in like a meteor, causing a big splash in the water as she leaped off the Low-rank Lesser Demon's head before performing another two Spatial Steps in the air.

Boom… Boom…

The balls of air exploded, shooting her over to her next target as her previous target resurfaced from the sea with its red-skinned body turning green from the spread of poison.

Puchi! Puchi!

Darlene ended the life of each demon with a single stab while darting around nimbly over the water surface.

"Kill her!" a Mid-rank Lesser Demon roared.

The demon army quickly abandoned their pursuit of the dark faes and focused their sole attention on Darlene.

However, Darlene's slippery maneuver made it difficult for the demons to catch her.

They tried to surround her and overwhelm her with numbers, but she simply spatial stepped away and attacked their weak spots in their army.

Just like that, she easily took down two dozen Lesser Demons in a short time.

But while it seemed like she was dominating the battlefield with her skillful use of Spatial Step, Darlene's frown deepened as the battle dragged on.

'My body can't keep up with my rapid movements! It's putting too much strain on my legs!' she concluded.

She quickly chose to retreat to shore.

Since she couldn't keep up with the strain of using Spatial Step, she had to change her battle tactics to ease the burden on her legs.

However, it wasn't just her legs; even her arms were feeling the strain of each stab.

If not for her Tier-6 Poison Dagger, her physical strength alone would not be enough to penetrate the demons' tough bodily defense.

'There's nothing wrong with my battle tactics; it's my body that failed to keep up with it,' she took note of her deficiency.

Since her body was lacking, she just had to train it.

After awakening her spatial ability, she could control her energy flow and stop her Void Soul from absorbing everything.

Body Cultivation, which had been impossible, is now possible for her.

"After her!"

The demons chased after Darlene as she fled back to shore with Spatial Steps, getting further and further away.

The demons' swimming speed could not compare to her air-leaping maneuvers.

Even so, breaking away from the demons' ranks made her an open target for the demons' projectile weapons.

"Shoot her down!" roared the Evil Eye Lesser Demon leading the army.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Dozens of demons immediately hurled their spears while several other demons fired arrows from their bows.

Darlene's expression changed due to the incoming danger before she quickly twisted her body around and made a downward slash with her dagger hand, followed by an upward slash.

Second-level Spatial Fracture, Dark Passage!

Shing!

Two wide spatial tears in the dimension opened before dozens of spears and arrows flew through one of them and exited out the other.

Puchi! Puchi! Puchi!

The second spatial tear had opened in the demons' flanks, allowing Darlene to return the demons' projectile attacks back at them!

"Our rear is under attack!" cried a Low-rank Lesser Demon in the rear.

"What!" the Evil Eye Lesser Demon quickly shot his gaze to their flanks before barking, "How can we be attacked from behind?!"

However, it only took a moment before the Evil Eye Lesser Demon fixed his gaze on the spatial tear in the sky.

"What kind of ability is this?!" it exclaimed with shock.

Nevertheless, Darlene didn't keep the Dark Passage open for long as her body moved too far from the initial spatial tear and broke her connection to it.

However, her attack didn't stop there.

She halted her retreat with another Spatial Step and launched herself higher into the air before letting herself free-fall back to the sea surface.

Second-level Spatial Fracture!

After dropping more than halfway, she sliced open a long vertical spatial tear that extended all the way into the water.

Splash!

Darlene's body splashed into the water, soaking her entire body, but not for long before she shot back out of the water with another Spatial Step in the water.

The compression and rapid release of water generated a similar propelling explosion.

At the same time, the big spatial tear she created immediately swallowed large volumes of seawater into its endless and unknown space, creating a vacuum that pulled the Lesser Demons in the water towards it.

"Noooo!"

The Lesser Demons at the front all cried in fear as they twisted their bodies around and fought the water current dragging them towards the big spatial tear

The dark space within the spatial tear filled them with dread; they had the feeling that entering the spatial tear was a one-way trip.

And they were absolutely right on that feeling!

After the spatial tear swallowed several dozen Lesser Demons and countless gallons of black seawater, it closed and sealed them inside forever.

The rest of the lucky demons witnessed such a scene and froze with horrified looks, too terrified to continue their pursuit.
