*Bzzzz!*

Lightning spread around Red's body once again, turning golden at the tip of his horn. Right after, his lightning wings increased in size even more. Rean and Roan were ready to counterattack, expecting Red to charge at them. However...

​​

'Golden Ray!'

*Kabrum!*

A ranged lightning attack came out of Red's horn, aiming directly at Roan. Red knew that Roan was the most dangerous of the twins, so he aimed at him first, trying to take him by surprise. After all, this was the first time he used this attack. The reason was simple, it was powerful and fast but used a lot of Spiritual Energy.

Well, we're talking about Roan here, though. In his mind, everything was always possible in battle, even if it had never happened before. His body acted almost instinctively as he dodged the ray of golden lightning...or so he tried.

*Pkkkhht!*

"Shit!" Roan did react in time. That's true. However, Red's Golden Ray was way too fast! It far surpassed something a Stage Six Demon Beast could unleash. Because of that, he was still hit by the attack, leaving a gruesome hole on his body.

This was the first time Red saw his attack cause some damage. Well, it had caused damage before, but he didn't know because of Death World. He thought this was the first successful one. Nevertheless, Red had a very dark expression. 'How did he react to it so quickly? If he had been just a split-second late, he would have lost his head already. Since when were Nascent Soul Realm cultivators this good?' Of course, Red only thought about that for a moment before he charged at Roan. He had to use that chance to eliminate him.

However, it was at this moment that a ball of white light appeared right in front of him.

'Life Style, Flash!'

Immediately, the ball exploded, radiating an extremely intense and bright light. Now that Rean was in the Nascent Soul Realm, the brightness of Flash was several times higher as well.

*Arrgh!*

Red couldn't help but close his eyes for a moment, afraid of going blind because of it. At the same time, he changed directions and charged out. After all, he would be an idiot to not expect a retaliation there.

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

Sure enough, he was right. Except for Roan himself, five shadows appeared around Red's position, attacking him from all sides. One Rean and four clones!

'Death Style, Fifth Form, Mirage Assault!'

*Kabrum!*

*Swish, swish, swish, swish...*

Sadly, they only hit thin air. In the end, Red was just too fast...or so it should have been. Once Red appeared again, there were several slashing marks left in his body. "Where the hell did those guys come from?"

Rean pointed his sword at Red with a smile, saying, "You talking about our copies? They're basically the same as us, just a little weaker. I didn't expect you to be able to flee that easily, though. Only a few shallow cuts were left behind. Man, that's some real speed right there."

The real Roan then reappeared once more close to Rean. "What bullshit attack was that? Any idiot would have guessed that I'm your target. That Golden Ray of yours was really surprising, but your follow-up was so stupid that I'm feeling like throwing up already," Roan said that as the injury on his body closed up.

Red was shocked by that scene. He had to admit that his attack was predictable. However, he truly thought he was fast enough to make up for it. Of course, what really shocked him wasn't the fact that they prepared a trap for him but Roan's injuries instead. "This...how can your injury heal this fast?" By the time Red finished saying those words, Roan's severe injury was already gone.

'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery!'

Rean smiled once again, saying, "This is just a little trick that Light Element Affinity users can use." Following that, Rean pointed at the Spiritual Energy Field's core as he continued, "By the way, is it okay for you to be talking this much? The core will be fixed very soon. Of course, I would love to keep talking if you don't mind."

Red gritted his teeth as his golden lightning soon appeared once more. Soon after, the golden lightning at the tip of his horn separated from him, creating two spheres of golden lightning on Red's sides. Eventually, they transformed into two copies of Red, just that they were made of Lightning. "Do you think you're the only ones who can play with copies?"

Roan narrowed his eyes before telling Rean, 'You and I will hold off Red's real body. Let's use two copies for each of his clones.'

Rean nodded with a serious expression as he saw Red charging at them once again. Sure enough, all three Reds came together. Roan's clones used his skills, while Rean's ones used his.

'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'

'Life Fire, White Stellar Explosion!'

Of course, Red also used his own.

'Golden Streak!'

Rean and Roan joined hands once again, using their Black and White Stars to meet attack against attack. They aimed at the tip of Red's horn, where the golden lightning was concentrated. As for trying to dodge, they gave up on that idea since Red was still much faster than them. Without Death World, Roan's Shadow Air wasn't as efficient.

"Together!"

*Boom!*

Red and the twins' attacks soon collided with each other as an explosion of Spiritual Energy came out of their meeting point. The shockwave forced both sides back as a result. However, while Red seemed to be fine, the twins vomited a bit of blood. 'This golden lightning is too strong!'

'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery!'

Once again, Red saw the twins' injuries closing up extremely fast. "Don't think I'll stay here just watching!" He knew that he had to overwhelm the twins, or this would never end.

'Golden Streak! Golden Ray! Drohare Roar! Chain Golden Lightning!'

Red attacked nonstop while his clones kept Rean and Roan's clones occupied. Just like that, the injuries on the twins' bodies began to accumulate as Rean's Instant Recovery couldn't keep up. The situation was far from good...for both sides! Red was quickly running out of energy as well. In the end, using golden lightning and his copies just consumed way too much Spiritual Energy!
