Chapter 212: Ch 212: Domineering Rein
Rein activated his Furnace body with all his might when he was sure that the demons had shown all their cards. Immediately got a huge boost in power and the tides of the battle changed. The other human true gods were still in quite some trouble and the sect master of Divine Scale Pavillion was still injured but Rein started to push the demons back.
That in turn made other demons to focus on him which lessened the pressure on the other true gods.
This turn of events made Alcusus mad. The sudden boost in Rein's strength was completely out of his expectations. He was sure about dominating Rein in battle even if he could not do that very quickly. But now it was him who was actually getting dominated. This made Alcusus' mind go blank for a moment.
But then he continued attacking Rein with more ferocity. Even the other demons started to ignore the other human true gods and ganged up on Rein. Their main target was Rein so killing him was the top priority. Even if the other true gods took this chance to run away, the demons would not mind that.
So with all the demons joining force and using various types of mystical abilities on Rein, pressure started to mount on him. It would not be a big of a deal if he could use his Rain Gain skill but for the current Rein, it was not a possibility.
The other true gods immediately tried to run away when the pressure on them lessened a little bit. Only the sect master of the Divine Scale Pavillion tried to assist Rein but Rein stopped him and asked him to go back. Rein was moved that even in a situation like this the sect master was willing to help him out and he was planning to repay the sect master of this.
Very soon, all the human true gods except for Rein were able to successfully escape from the spatial rift. The demons did try to stop them but their efforts were half hearted so it did not succeed. The true god from the royal family did get badly injured but that was all. He was at least still able to keep his life.
...
After all the distractions present in the spatial rift left, all the demons were able to completely focus on Rein. Many weaker demons also started to provoke Rein with words and attacked him from all sides to distract him.
But after a few hours or so, the demons noticed an absurd fact. Even after fighting for a few hours straight, instead of getting weaker, Rein was getting stronger with time. It was not like his power, cultivation or stats were growing but his fighting style and weapon handling skills were getting more refined. This was something that no demons could believe.
They did not want to believe the fact that something like this was even possible.
One had to remember the fact that even in his world, Rein was a genius when it came to learning. He had managed to reach insane heights in terms of power in just a few years. But in this world, his journey so far had been smooth sailing and this genius talent of getting stronger through battles of his did not get the chance to shine.
But now when the situation got dangerous for him, this innate talent of his came into full bloom.
In the last few hours, Rein had managed to completely read the fighting styles, skills and habits of all the demon gods. This process would have taken a lot less time if he was using his eye of Truth but as the current Rein did not have access to that broken skill of his, he needed to work a bit harder to analyse everything.
After coming to this world, there was only one thing that Rein was unsatisfied about. And that was the fact that his fighting skills did not get a chance to grow as he did not have a powerful enough opponent. But now he had no more things to regret after coming to this world as finally his fighting skills started to improve when he fell into a tough situation.
As the battle continued like this, the demons started to feel a foreboding feeling. After an hour one of the demon gods got very badly injured by Rein. This made the tide of battle to again turn in Rein's favour. Then after about seven hours all the demon gods except for Alcusus and two more were either dead or badly injured.
The demons did not want to believe this but their ambush and perfect planning had failed. It did not matter what they did not, they would not be able to kill Rein. Actually in the current situation if Rein tried to run away, none of the demons would be able to stop him. But seeing that Rein did not run away, his intentions were clear for the demons.
This made them even more angry. Some of the demons had tried to self-destruct but were not successful. Rein had used some kind of mystical ability that prevented them from self destructing. Now all the demons were at their wits end.
They had thought that by bringing Rein here in the spatial rift, they were bringing a lamb to the slaughter house but now it looked like that they actually invited a tiger in their home.
This was not something that Alcusus and all the other demons were happy about. They needed to do something fast or they would all be killed by Rein. Having no other choice, Alcusus made a dangerous decision. He had the ability to control certain parts and aspects of the spatial rift but he was unable to make drastic changes.
But if Alcusus went all out and risked the damage to his control device, then it was possible for him to slightly direct the spatial rift itself to attack Rein.
This spatial rift was actually like a mini world. It was something like a seed which could give birth to a new world if it was able to develop for a long long time. So getting targeted and attacked by it was equivalent to getting attacked by a whole world and that was definitely a very dangerous thing.
No matter how many true gods banded together, they would never be able to contend with a whole world with their own strengths.
The main problem with this plan was the fact that it was all theoretical. Alcusus had never tried to do something like this so he was not sure if his plan would succeed or not. If it failed then that would be the end for the whole demon race. So with this heavy responsibility on his shoulder, Alcusus took out a mystical device that looked like a key and activated it.
Now what was going to happen next ?
