Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

But the elven duo were already injured with the backlash from exerting their barrier formation to fight Korin and receiving more burnt off the Korin\'s counter.

Both of them shot into the ground, their consciousness rattled.

The only one floating in the sky was the red-haired man, his eyes were strained, but his injuries had mostly recovered. However, he didn\'t have much Aethir force and Soul energy. The only way to live was to escape successfully.

But…the red-haired warrior knew that he was denied of that possibility.

Korin\'s arm blurred his spear shooting at the red-haired man.

The red-haired warrior roared, his aura bursting as he used his domain to burst out, projecting out marble structure in a fiery realm with streams of various flames with different red and orange hues.

The spear was destroyed by a stream of flames instantly while divine flame wingless dragons with long whiskers manifested, their mouth opening and their bodies lighting up in patterns as they attacked Korin.

Korin also activated his domain, but the moment he activated it, Korin covered the red-haired warrior\'s domain and burst into a black night before a giant skull-shaped deathly crimson-colored moon hung in the sky.

\'If you stay here longer after killing me, you will not live!\' the red-haired man roared with bloodshot eyes. \'My companions will be here soon!\'

Korin\'s eyes flashed as a meters giant skull manifested and started eating away the dragons.

The red-haired warrior didn\'t relent, but as soon as he used a skill, Korin would counter it and destroy it.

Alas, he could only last up to four attacks and he exhausted them within four seconds.

But Korin was unscathed and finally waved his hand, conjuring a shadow scythe that beheaded the red-haired warrior, who was statistically stronger than Korin! Experience new tales on empire

Korin also knew that, but even then he had the confidence to kill this red-haired man alone.

"You damn Elite…when will I reach that state?" the red-haired man\'s lips mumbled while his head rolled away, his eyes looking at Korin\'s figure that was leaving.

\'So he heed the warning?\' he bitterly thought as his consciousness started waning. \'Well, at least the elves and Biji are safe.\'

In his last moment before his consciousness was retrieved from death and transported back to his Master\'s mansion, the only thing in his eyes was the sheen at the depth of Korin\'s eyes.

That mysterious sheen indicated a certain state of Aethir\'s power.

It was a requirement if one wanted to ascend to the Reverend order and a godly power when an Empyrean-order learned it.

But this state was the biggest hurdle of Reverend-order, so Empyrean-order powerhouses always cross this at last and breakthrough.

The state he displayed was so rare in this playground that only 0.1% of Empyrean-order people participating in this War of Thrones could do that.

The Mind Zone.

Upon achieving Mind Zone, one\'s entire battle style would be boosted because, in it, one could create new skills instantaneously.

Since the power of skill could vary drastically based on Aethir\'s attributes and Soul Vice, it didn\'t matter if someone had a higher realm of Elemental prowess.

And when everyone didn\'t have much difference in the realm of their powers, the design and effects of skill with Aethir\'s attribute and Soul Vice, both of which could bring exotic and creative reality-bending effects to their skills were the main focus.

The clashing of skill would only favor the skill that brought an advantage against the other skill.

Korin executed his skills faster, and always countered them and defended perfectly, solely because of Mind Zone.

The Zone where one could spend only half a second to create a skill from scratch. A single flash of the skill\'s visualization that one\'s mind would calculate, construct, and create—That flash would be printed in the Mind Zone, an instant skill creation according to the situation.

This was the peak of combat where Elemental Magic powers were their pieces, Aethir\'s attributes were the ever-changing clothes designed according to Concepts and potential that could turn those pieces into anything, and Soul Vices that gave traits to those decorated pieces to favor their situation or counter unfavorable situations.

[You have gained 400 Glory Points. You are currently ranked 4th on the Glory Leaderboard.]

[You have gained access to Glory Shop.]

"Worthless," Korin muttered after opening the Glory Shop and continued his way back to the Throne Hall.

\'I\'ll need over a thousand Glory Points if I want to buy something useful.\'

He took out his badge and looked at the message sent by Nira.

Afterward, when he was fifty kilometers away from the Throne Hall, he used a skill that allowed him to display the Throne Hall and the area around it while he sat upon a tree\'s branch on a mountain in the mountain range sticking to the Throne Hall.

While thinking about the next steps, Korin started recovering his spent Aethir force and Soul energy while a deep breath of the atmosphere filled up his Prana pool to full.

After seven minutes, Korin was about to fully recover when he sensed something and his eyes shot open before they narrowed.

Korin could see a man with long wild white hair standing on a golden-white cloud from his shadow eyes planted around Throne Hall and the area where others had completed the challenges.

\'Heavenly Nimbus Shen? Why is a Patron realm member looking around in that area?\' Korin frowned as he recognized the golden-white lightning cloud.

The area where Ragna stopped was the same place where Rin used her Heavenly Nimbus Shen!

\'This can be troublesome depending on his Boon,\' Korin\'s eyes flashed. \'Heavenly Nibus Shen will make him annoying, but I can handle that…as long as he hasn\'t unlocked Mind Zone.\'

Korin started contemplating, but then suddenly saw the man streaking away like a lightning bolt and vanishing.

"Well, I should look around a few thousand kilometers of this area," Ragna muttered as he left, but not before solidly noting down this area.

Korin also decided to leave in another direction to explore and find phenomena like events, challenges, anomalies, and trials.

Meanwhile, Erix and the group in the Trial of Moonhunt Serenade had reached halfway to completing it.
