Ace was completely horrified and alarm seeing just how powerful that first thunderbolt was. It even killed that monster like an ant. And by the looks of it, the next condensing thunderbolt appears even more powerful than the last one.
'If I knew this was about to happen I would've made so kind of preparation or find so treasures that can block thunder. Well even if I know the treasure that can block heavenly punishnt are not easy to find.' Ace thought bitterly.
Ace quickly calms himself because now is not the ti to fret over his past mistakes. He has to sohow succeed in this deathly trial.
The inky clouds were even more lit in the center than last ti and it was ready to destroy Ace with every ounce of its might.
Ace quickly shouts in his mind, "System give
five... NO! Ten basic healing pills and Ten basic Qi recovering pills now!"
=======
"[Basic Healing Pill: 25 TP for each pill]
{10 Pills = 250}
[Basic Heavenly Qi Pill: 10 TP for each pill]
{10 Pills = 100}
[{Total: 350 TP}]
[Host has a sufficient amount of TP.]
[The purchase has been successful!]
[The pills are delivered into host thief's space.]"
[Thief Points (TP): 595]
======
Ace didn't think that he would be using these pills in this kind of situation.
He clearly knew that system pills were not ordinary at all, even these basic pills are more precious than any pill in high-level lands.1
However, Ace can only use these system's pills, ordinary pills can only give him EXP or SP they have no other effect on him.
More importantly, except for 'Heaven Stealer Pill' other pills didn't have any limit on their quantity. So, he didn't buy them in bulk as he did with the weapons.
Besides, 'Heaven Stealer Pills' were expensive. Ace thinks he didn't need them for the mont so he was saving them for the perfect ti because of their limitation.
That's why for the first ti he bought these basic pills because he knows without them he would be dead without any doubt.
With a thought, two green pills appeared in his hand from the thief's space.
One has golden circles it was the healing pill and the other have black circles on it this is the Heavenly Qi Pill. They were mysteriously glowing and a light mist was oozing from them. This glow ans golden grade alchemy pill and mist only appeared on quasi-first grade pill!
Only the alchemist who was about to break into the first-grade alchemist rank can create these kinds of pills.
Ace didn't have ti to admire these priceless pills and he throws them in his mouth but he didn't swallow them. It was for the exact mont when he would be in grave danger then he would consu them, and he hopes they could help him in this situation.
After doing this he looked above and the thunder was going strike any mont.
Ace still didn't feel assure so he took out all the weapons in his thief's space. They were not any used to him and he was thinking about disposing of them after he reached higher level lands.
However now, they can be his at shield. They can't block the attack fully but at least they can weaker it to so extent, right?
Ace knows he has no ti to waste and quickly pours HD-Qi into his dual swords. A huge amount of Qi darts out from those two black blades.
That huge amount of Qi begun to turn into a huge crude cauldron shape as it devours those thousands of qi weapons. After that qi cauldron was filled with weapons, it starts to hover above Ace's head. It was like a multilayer shield, that was made of swords, spears, halberds, war hamrs, shields, sabers...
Ace finds this thod to manifest his Qi in his year of training. Since he can't manifest his qi out his body at this mont, Ace found he can do it with his first-grade weapon.
Ace can easily create shapes with Qi and control them with his mind with this thod. However, since he was not in the foundation building realm this was quite taxing on his body and mind.
"crrrrcrrrrrccccccc!"
A thundering boom rang and a thick white thunderbolt blast down straight at Ace like an arrow.
Ace has just created his 'shield' when the thunderbolt falls. He saw this bolt was wider than the last one and apparently more powerful as well.
He holds his sword hilts firmly and channels all qi into his swords.
"Booooommmm!"
The thunderbolt landed straight on the 'shield' but like paper that 'shield' turn into ashes. They were probably more than a thousand 2-star and hundreds of 3-start weapons in that cauldron and even so 4-star weapons.
Ace has put all his 'weaponry wealth' into this 'shield' and it was turned into ashes like it was nothing.
Ace's heart would definitely bleed if he was not occupying right at this mont.
Since the 'shield' was broken or turn into ashes the white despair thunder's next target was obviously Ace.
'chechhhhhhee'
This ti, however, his dual swords clashed with the thunderbolt but after so ti Ace simply can't take a huge pressure and destructive forces of the white despair thunder.
The thunderbolt manages to break his last defense and landed in his chest.
It starts to wreak havoc in Ace's body. Ace felt like he was in the pits of hell right at this mont. His whole body and organs were burning inside out and all he could feel was piercing pain and despair, nothing else.
'This is the end I guess!' This was the thought in his heart before he finally gave up.
At this mont when Ace lost all hope to live, the dark void that was stopped devouring the heavenly Qi because of the heavenly punishnt awakens and begun to operate again and this ti its target of devouring was white despair thunder!
Ace felt the ghastly pain began to lessen bit by bit and he regain his senses.
But his condition was not so good. He quickly takes out two more pills from his thief's space and swallows them. The last two pills were used and without them and dark void he would be dead by now.
After regaining his senses Ace saw his body was charred all over, and he could even sll his own flesh roasting. He was unable to shake that bolt in the slightest. He had been essentially powerless.
This made him feel completely dispirited. In front of that thunderbolt, he felt that he was completely insignificant.
Ace didn't settle on it for too long because he could feel that dark void has again stopped. After all, it seems the whit despair thunder was finished. But he still didn't get any HD-Qi. If not for the Heavenly Qi Pill he would be run out of Qi long ago.
"Just why is it not working like normal? And that elental orb was also being absorbed in it even now. Just what the hell is the system doing?!!!" Ace swore weakly.
He was feeling extrely frustrated right now nothing seems to work the proper way. But the news that the dark void can devour that lightning was very good for him. However, the pain was not sothing that he can handle for long.
Just he was in mulling over his grave situation, the heaven seems to sense that the previous bolt was not enough to take this ant down and it didn't give any chance to Ace for recuperating.
With a thunderous roar, two white thunderbolts descend this ti.
Ace wanted to curse heaven for being this ruthless to send two bolts this ti. But he didn't have ti because the bolts were already reaching him.
This ti Ace didn't do anything and the thunderbolt descends on him.
'Boooommm'
Ace felt even worse than before however he grinds his teeth and endure.
This ti, however, he felt the feeling of despair was even stronger than before. It was like this strange 'will' wanted him to lose his own will to fight and surrender himself to heaven.
It wanted him to rest for eternity and pay the price for opposing heaven with his soul being shattered and his existence been erased forever.
Ace finally understands just what true despair is but he didn't give in he keeps himself rembered that his life was bond with Eva's and he still needs to find his little sister. After that, he still didn't solve the mystery of his parents so he remains strong in the face of despair and that strange 'will'.
It was as if his determination has fueled the dark void, it starts devouring the thunderbolt even faster.
Ace finally felt the pain lessen and he quickly throws two more pills in his mouth. These pills were truly marvelous the healing pill was healing his internal and external wounds by the heavenly thunderbolt and the qi pill was providing him with a large amount of heavenly qi.
"Hahaha! You can do nothing to
now I will endure to the last mont but I will never surrender to you! Not even in my grave!" Ace roared while laughing as he looked at the inky clouds fiercely.
He was angry right now because he was pushed around all day, first by that monster and now by heaven as well.
How could he not curse at this mont? If not for his dark void he would be dead after receiving the first strike.
It was as if heaven has heard him and it was infuriated by his disrespectful words and the inky clouds began to gather a huge amount of lightning.
"Crap!
and my big mouth!" Ace wanted to cry right now.
