Chapter 1698  Fight Against The Void Cult (3)

"We will make a path for Caeso!" The one-eyed mutant raised his voice and their Void Energy went wild. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Despite their mutations, they still could use similar skills like Bloodline Transformation. All of them transformed, including Caeso. The eight mutants burst out with stronger energy and pushed back the encirclement.

Caeso used a skill that was similar to Tang Shaoyang's Blink. His figure disappeared, but not unnoticed by Tang Shaoyang.

Caeso did not attack him, so else his Absolute Sense would notify him. It could only be activated when he was in danger. However, thanks to Divine Sight, he could see where he went.

He saw a few seconds to the future and saw a portal gate formed twenty meters from where they battled. The eight mutants were pushing the spirits further from the portal gate.

Then he saw Caeso in his Divine Sight, appearing in front of the portal. The mutant gave a last glance to his brothers before entering the portal.

Tang Shaoyang wasted no time. He only had a few seconds, before he disappeared into the shadows.

Caeso managed to shake off the spirits and appeared in the same exact location where Tang Shaoyang saw him. A ten-meter portal formed in front of him. He was just a step away from it to leave this world. However, he glanced at his brothers for the last time, and then he raised his right foot to enter the portal.

A half step away from the portal, Caeso sensed a danger. It told him that if he made a full step to the portal, he might be dead. That was an instinct he had ever since he succeeded in assimilating with the void's parts. He leaped three steps backward, and someone struck him from below.

He saw an azure-colored sword pierced upward, and the man he hated the most appeared in front of him. If he made a full step there, the sword would cut him from below, slicing him into two.

Caeso thought of killing Tang Shaoyang at this chance. Killing the summoner would get rid of all the spirits, and he did not have to lose his brothers. It was a split-second thought, but he abandoned the thoughts. He stepped forward, walking through the space, passing through Tang Shaoyang.

He entered the portal gate, at least he thought so until he saw his surroundings. It was still the same, the area near the village where they set up the portal gate.

Caeso was shocked, thinking there was an error in the portal. He turned around and found out that the portal was no longer there. Someone broke the portal, and there was no need to think who was the culprit. The Spirit Contractor broke the portal gate, but how?

The portal gate they had was not a device, it was a technique from people who mastered The Void Elemental Power. A natural power to the void creature. The portal gate they set up only could be broken by someone with Void Elemental Power. That meant the Spirit Contractor mastered The Void Elemental Power.

Caeso chuckled, "I thought of killing you instead of running away, but you destroyed the portal gate. I am grateful to you for doing that, so that means I can die together with my brothers, or I will save them all by killing YOU!"

While they were not under The System's control anymore, these people still had the player's features like an inventory. Caeso took out four swords from his inventory and rushed toward Tang Shaoyang.

With his three-meter hand, he was like using a spear instead of a sword. He swung the sword from the four-meter distance, forcing Tang Shaoyang to defend without a chance to counter.

Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!

In a matter of a second, Tang Shaoyang parried and blocked Caseo's swords several times with his Azure Dragon Blade. Not only was Caeso's hand longer, but he had four of them. The mutant had a full advantage against Tang Shaoyang despite his bloodline transformation. At least, that was the case on the surface.

Their swords sparked each time the swords clashed. This was the first time Tang Shaoyang fought a mutant, so he was unsure how they were compared to a God Rank. He chose to go on defense, not because he could not launch an attack but because he wanted to test the mutant out.

Their swords blurred, while Caeso's swords were fast, but Tang Shaoyang's was quicker. One sword blocked and parried four swords.

Caeso used his weird movement technique where he walked through the space for a change of position. However, Tang Shaoyang would be able to counter that with his Divine Sight and Absolute Sense.

The one who was frustrated with the stalemate was Caeso. He heard a lot about Spirit Contractor from his brothers. They were known for their spirit summoning which was annoying. They would hide behind their spirits and barrage them with long-range spells.

That was the common way of how a Spirit Contractor fights. But he realized the one in front of him was different than what his brothers told him. This one was proficient in swordplay, and in fact, this man was better at sword than him.

Caeso realized why his instinct told him to escape instead of killing this man earlier. This might be the reason why. His four swords suddenly wrapped in dark violet energy. As he swung the swords, his four swords tore through the space.

Half of his sword entered the open space and came for Tang Shaoyang's back and neck. He expected to catch Tang Shaoyang off guard, but once more, it failed. Four dark-red blades formed around his enemy and blocked his swords. It was as if Tang Shaoyang could read every movement.

Caeso could not believe that his enemy could read his movements. He kept using the same technique where his sword tore apart the space and appeared in an unexpected spot to hit Tang Shaoyang. However, each of his swords was blocked by the dark-red blade and the azure-colored sword.

Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow as the fight continued. He had not taken any initiative to attack Caeso until he found something about this mutant. The mutant never used a skill. A transformation was considered a skill, and a movement that walked through the space might be considered a skill. However, it could be achieved by mastering a technique. He realized all this mutant did was a technique, not a skill.

While the mutant still had inventory, activating bloodline transformation. However, that might be just instinct or a technique. They could no longer use a skill just like he and the other players. For mutants who had lost the favor of the System, they could not use the skills anymore.
