Chapter 1685 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
âGo to hell!â
Nestorâs arrogance ignited fury in Dustinâs eyes, his blood boiling. In response, Dustin threw caution to the wind, using a forbidden technique.
Explosions echoed as bloody holes erupted across Dustinâs body instantly, drenching him in his blood.
The secret Rhys technique enhanced a personâs strength but came with severe consequences, especially when used under physical exhaustion.
It would worsen a personâs condition, and a slight miscalculation could lead to self-destruction. It was clear that Dustin was going all out.
âHave you lost your mind? Do you want to drag us both into the abyss of death? âNestor, who had been arrogant just moments ago, now looked scared.
The secret Rhys technique was a desperate last move, sacrificing themselves to defeat an enemy. It was a risky move that only someone really determined to die would try.
Nestor now regretted getting on Dustinâs nerves earlier. If he had delayed a bit longer, Dustin would have worn himself out to the point of demise.
âIf Iâm going down, youâre coming with me!â Dustin grinned menacingly. His eyes were now a deep shade of red. Terrifying energy surged from every part of his body.
The Celestial Blade in Dustinâs hand began to vibrate wildly. Waves of ferocious sword energy relentlessly pounded against Nestorâs protective golden bell shield.
The force grew stronger, and the onslaught became more intense. Cracks started to appear on the seemingly indestructible shield under the relentless assault of the Celestial Blade.
âWhat?â Seeing that, Nestor panicked. He urgently infused his entire body with spiritual energy, attempting to reinforce the golden bell shield.
He knew that if he couldnât endure Dustinâs final attack, he might end up seriously hurt or worse. On the flip side, if he held his ground, Dustin would be done for.
Nestor attempted to fortify the shield. But the cracks kept spreading, refusing to mend. In just moments, the once- solid shield resembled a web of fine fractures.
âAh!â He let out a frustrated roar. Veins popped on his face, and his limbs shook uncontrollably.
âQuick, help him!â Sensing the urgency of the situation, Anders, who was watching from a distance, immediately called for help from nearby warriors.
âLetâs see whoâs brave enough to make a move!â Abigail stood in their way and raised a vial of poison in the air. She warned, âStep forward, and Iâll turn you into a bloody mess!â
Her threat made everyone think twice, freezing them in their tracks. The fear of Abigailâs poison kept them from doing anything rash.
âDie!â Dustin roared.
With a powerful shove forward, a loud explosion followed. Nestorâs golden bell shield finally broke, and he was sent flying.
Dustinâs Celestial Blade went straight for Nestorâs chest. But instead of the expected fatal blow, it felt like hitting steel.
The blade couldnât pierce him, but the powerful energy still sent Nestor flying, crashing into the rocks. He coughed up blood, looking beaten and pale.
