Chapter 654: War in Subterranean World: Second Level

"You've greatly underestimated us this time. The other top Grains didn't even come here and you think you can defeat us!"

Jayden said as he stood up from the rubble. He wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth with his hand. He suffered some injuries from receiving Banni's attack.

"They are busy... I'm sure you understand the state of the world."

Banni replied before fixing his posture and pointing his daggers at his opponent.

The Grains that Jayden was talking about were the other First Grains and Second Grains.

The Athen's Champion was divided into six Divisions and each Division was divided into ten Sets. Each Set was divided into three Grains; Grain War, Grain Wisdom, and Grain Virgin which symbolizes their holy G.o.ddess.

And each of the three Grains was divided into ten ranks. First to Tenth. At First being the strongest and Tenth being the weakest.

Banni was leader of the First Grain War so Jayden was talking about the First Grain Wisdom and First Grain Virgin.

The power of the absent two leaders was just slightly below him. The two contributed greatly in the fight against Red Matter a.s.sociation years ago.

"Then, you should say goodbye to this world!"

Jayden said as he thrust his rapier.

Boom!!

A loud sound exploded as a shockwave flew in Banni's direction.

"I have honed my skills in the past few years just to defeat you! I am stronger than before!"

Banni s.h.i.+fted his body to the side as he avoided the shockwave. Then, he charged forward as lightning and wind followed his tracks.

[Greater Skin Reinforce]!

[Wind's Agile]!

[Blade of Earth]!

[Steel Flesh]!

He activated several combat arts as he arrived in front of Jayden's eyes. These combat arts were trained to perfect mastery.

"Then, I'll fight you seriously!"

Jayden grinned as an enormous amount of mana exploded within his body. His overall stats had increased vastly.

Swoos.h.!.+

He moved his body to the side as lightning and winds crashed in his previous position.

[Element Drive: Wood Integration]!!

His energy level flared up as he dashed forward. His figure collided with Banni.

Boom!!

Banni was thrown away. His body penetrated several buildings before he stopped.

Ugh!!

He spat a mouthful of blood as he felt intense pain in his body. His opponent finally used the [Element Drive] and it overwhelmed him.

"T-The second level..."

Banni mumbled as he stood up with great effort.

What Jayden used wasn't an ordinary [Element Drive]. It was the second level called Integration.

If the first level was Force the second level was Integration. The Integration was achieved by forming an elemental seed in their mana pool. Not only it could boost their elemental affinity by a large margin, this could also bring them a huge boost in overall stats once activated.

Banni knew that Jayden was going to fight him with all of his power.

The power of Integration.

Jayden stabbed his rapier on the ground. A tremendous amount of energy spread out like a tsunami.

[Rising Nature]!

The ground shook heavily as thousands of woods sprung up from the ground. It covered everything within a twenty-kilometer radius.

Buildings or houses were destroyed as woods pierced them from the ground. The civilians that were hiding from the battle got swallowed by these things.

An entire forest had risen instantly. It covered half of the northern region.

The warriors that were fighting in this region had no choice but to stop fighting as they sensed a tremendous energy in the atmosphere. They could only retreat and watched the whole forest emerge from the ground.

"Grain Leader Banni!!"

The warriors were concerned but they couldn't do anything about it. The person that Banni was fighting was in a completely different league from them.

"Don't falter warriors! Grain Leader Banni will handle it! Focus on our enemy in front!"

One of the Grain Leaders of lower Grains shouted. The only thing they could do for now was to fight the enemies in front of them. Without defeating these people, they wouldn't be able to help the other warriors.

Banni moved his swiftly as he chopped down the woods that were coming at him.

'The effect of this spell isn't originally as strong as this one... But because of the second level of [Element Drive], its power had grown stronger.'

A low-rank tier 3 spell became a high-rank tier 3 spell. The effect of Integration was horrifying.

And this was just the second level. If a second level was already this strong, then what about the third level or the fourth level?

Banni took a deep breath. He circulated his mana inside his body and activated more of his combat arts.

The lightning and winds swirling around him grew fiercer as he stared at Jayden's lone figure.

"It's do or die! If I couldn't kill him, I will do my best to injure him so that the other warriors could kill this guy. Even if I die I will..."

Banni's eyes were filled with fighting spirit. He roared as he charged at Jayden with everything that he had got.

Swoos.h.!.+

"Come!! I am prepared!" Jayden said seriously as he pointed his rapier ahead.

Hundreds of woods moved and rushed ahead. It was an overwhelming sight as each one had a thickness of three to five meters.

[Swift Wind Slash]!!

[Lightning Demolition Strike]!!

The woods exploded as lightning and winds surged in every direction.

The violent energy coming from the impact spread out.

Banni emerged from the explosion as he jumped forward while pointing his daggers ahead.

"Jayden!!"

Two figures clashed in the mid-air. The air vibrated as both of their energies collided causing violent sparks in the atmosphere.

Boom!!

Both of their figures flew out like a cannonball and crashed on the ground.

Bang! Bang!

Ugh!

Banni stood up as he wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth. He grinned and said, "It's true that a higher level of [Elemen Drive] is strong but... If that's all you've got then you wouldn't be able to defeat me."

"True."

Jayden laughed lightly as he zoomed the distance between him and Banni.

"You're not the second strongest in the entire Third Set for nothing. I always admire your strength and I'm sure that it would be a great achievement to defeat you here."

He raised his rapier and swung it down.

[Nature Slash]!

"Haha! So that's how you saw me! In the battle of two warriors on the same level, experience always matters!"

Banni laughed as he avoided the attack and thrust his daggers forward.

Swoos.h.!.+

Jayden crouched down and he launched a kick on his opponent's knee. Banni raised his foot to block it but he saw Jayden stopped.

Then, a rapier flashed toward his face. He reacted quickly but it grazed his cheeks.

Blood spurted out from his wound and he tried to slash the figure in front of him.

Swoos.h.!.+

Jayden jumped away but he felt something wrong. He saw Banni with a huge grin on his face.

[Exploding Air Mine]!!

Behind him, a wind burst out throwing powerful energy. The eruption of the winds chopped hundreds of woods in the area.

"It's not enough!"

Banni gritted his teeth. His figure flashed and appeared in front of his opponent but Jayden already expected it.

A rapier pierced his right shoulder.

Ugh!!

The energy inside the rapier was fierce and it grew wilder causing Banni to groan in pain. It was grinding his flesh and it was very painful.

'I have to defeat this person!'

Banni threw the dagger in his left hand at his opponent.

Jayden simply tilted his head to avoid it. He pulled back his left arm and when he was about to deliver a blow, Banni opened his palm.

[Lightning Cry]!!

It was just a simple low-tier spell but it distracted Jayden. The spell exploded in front of him not because it was powerful.

Boom!!

The reason was that Banni overload the magic circle of the low-rank tier 1 spell with his energy causing it to explode. It couldn't handle the enormous amount of energy used to cast a high-tier spell.

So Jayden thought it was a high-tier spell when he sensed the amount of energy inside the magic circle.

"s.h.i.+t!!"

Jayden cursed as he waved his hand to blow the smoke away.

But then, he saw Banni staring at him ten meters away from his left side. The dagger in his right hand was s.h.i.+ning brightly.

[True Strike]!!

[Essence Boosting]!!

Banni used the equipment skill of his red grade dagger. The [True Strike] was a skill that could ignore the defense of his target while the [Essence Boosting] could boost his attack damage by 150% for one attack.

What makes it more powerful was that he loaded his attack with lightning and winds.

[True Lightning Wind Blast]!!

Banni slashed the dagger in his hand and a powerful wave of energy followed it.

"Arghh!!"

Jayden gritted his teeth as he raised his weapon in front of it.

[Nature's s.h.i.+eld]!

[Nine-layered Face Barrier]!

[Enhance Body Flesh]!

[True Damage Resistance]!

He used various defensive skills to block the incoming attack.

BOOM!!
