"WHAT DID I DO TO YOU?!!!!"
This voice shook the entire island, and Ace was astounded because the power behind that voice wasn't any lower than the Predator Coffin Fish.
Furthermore, the heavenly punishment clouds seemed to become enraged when they couldn't eliminate this hindrance.
"Rumble!"
A powerful thunderclap rang, and thereafter, a thick pillar of tri-color thunder bolted down right where the source of this voice was!
"Leave me alone!" The threatening voice rang again, and this time, a dark golden pillar of light suddenly shot out in the counter to the lighting pillar.
"Boom!" What happened made even Ace gobsmacked because that dark golden light pillar directly smashed into the heavenly thunder pillar, and instead of shattering, both powers seemed to be equal!
Ace had never seen another going against the heavenly thunder head-on, much less stopping it like this.
'Just who is hiding here?' Ace wondered as he finally activated the live fate map.
Before, he didn't bother to waste his Qi since he thought everything would turn to ashes, but now, he had to see just what kind of entity was hiding here. Ace instantly spotted a black fate point, but it wasn't just black. A ring of glittering silver was also shimmering around it.
At this moment, Ace's attention was again drawn by the sound of something shattering, and he saw it was the dark golden light pillar that was finally shattered by the tri-color thunder, and the thunder then landed on its target!
"What kind of power is this…ahhhhhh!" The startling words were followed by blood-curdling screams.
Just when Ace thought this guy was done for, another thunderbolt, even thicker than the previous one, bolted down.
"Ahhh, wrenched bastard! You win, I give up!"
Surprisingly, the person was still alive, and seeing another thunder pillar on its way, it seemed to have decided to flee.
Under Ace's curios eyes, a dark golden flash suddenly appeared, and then the next moment, it vanished without a trace.
'Boom…' The thunder pillar finally landed.
However, Ace frowned in disbelief, 'Was that a gate I just saw?' Ace was bewildered because, in that flash, he saw a dark golden gate, and now, looking at the fate map, the fate point was completely gone.
'He escaped?' Ace was completely uncertain, but he had this feeling that the person was able to escape and probably because of that gate, 'Not only going against the heavenly thunder but even enduring it and then escaping just in the nick of time? And what was he so desperately guarding and unwilling to give up?'
Ace was extremely curious now and wanted to head to that place to see if there was something on that island that could draw such a terrifying existence.
However, he didn't have the time because after that person was killed or fled, the heavenly punishment seemed to be finally focusing on its real target.
Ace's expression became solemn, and he decided to investigate after dealing with the heavenly punishment. Furthermore, he could feel his sword cores trembling in excitement.
"Alright, bring it on!" Ace's expression went cold as he looked up and was ready for the thunder strike.
But contrary to his expectation and unlike the previous heavenly punishments, the tri-color thunder gathers in the center of the vortex eye but does not descend. Instead, a giant head with three thunder horns started to creep out!
'It came right off the bat?!' Ace didn't have to guess what it was as he was very familiar with it and would never forget his previous encounter.
It was the Heaven's Terminate Manifestation!
The only difference was it was entirely made with tri-color thundered and far bigger than the previous one. Furthermore, it didn't have four arms but only two hands, which were shaped like sword blades.
Its aura was far more terrifying than the thunder pillar he had just seen, and without even wasting a moment, it directly bolted into Ace's direction!
'What a cruel heaven!' Ace smiled bitterly, and he guessed from now on, he wouldn't be just fighting mere thunderbolts but Heaven's Terminate Manifestations!
Since it was just start, it meant there should be more, so he had to be careful.
Nonetheless, he was ready for anything this time around, and dark martial Qi gushed out from his person, and a dark, ethereal image suddenly overlapped with Ace. He appeared to be a demon from hell, no longer human.
It was the result of secret martial skill, the Dark Soul and Body Union, and his power increased by ten times!
However, it was far from enough, as he even summoned the Devil Horn Dark Owl Wings.
Thereafter, a hundred black swords with dark lighting started to manifest from his Qi, and those swords were giving the aura of despair. Ace could only use his despair-lighting sword intent in this state for some reason, as he still wasn't able to figure out how he could mix two element intents into one sword.
Nonetheless, it was still sufficient as long as he could take down that incoming Heaven's Terminate Manifestation!
Right now, he was in his strongest state, and he was saving it for this exact moment. He no longer underestimates his eternal enemy.
"Eternal Thief's Sword System, Sword Rain of Despair Lighting!" His voice has completely changed as it overlapped without another eerie voice.
'Swish…' The black swords instantly flashed toward the Heaven's Terminate Manifestation, leaving behind dark streaks.
The Heaven's Terminate Manifestation charged without changing its course and slashed its two sword arms on the incoming black blades.
Ace's lips curled up as he controlled those hundred swords with his mind and focused ten sword blades on Heaven's Terminate Manifestation's arms while the reaming was going towards every other part of its thunder body.
The Heaven's Terminate Manifestation was a giant target, and it could only block a few sword blades. But Ace's sword intent was in the intermediate realm, which can't be deflected without using equally strong force.
The moment they clashed, metallic sounds rang in the vicinity as those ten sword blades were completely fine. At the same time, they keep the Heaven's Terminate Manifestation's arms occupied while the other sword blades cut its thunder body!
Despite that, the black sword blades were only slightly dissipated, and Ace controlled them with his mind and unleashed a torrent of slashes all over Heaven's Terminate Manifestation's body.
He grinds it until it turns into a small thunder fragment, and then he does something even crazier: he directly charges into those thunder fragments by flapping his dark wings!
