"That's the first limit." Erick said, looking at Astral, whose body seed to be releasing an intense aura all around the grey lands.
As he said those words, the second limit was also broken at that mont, and an even more intense energy was released from Astra's body.
"His aura is increasing with every limit." Orion said, watching the whole spectacle.
Erick nodded and said, "The third limit is where things start to get serious for him. His body is only capable of holding the first two limits barely so the last three take a huge toll on his whole body."
Orion nodded and watched Astral and his clone.
At this mont, Astral was in so much pain that even screaming beca difficult for him. Breaking the third limit was extrely hard for him, as his body could only handle the first two limits. Achieving the third limit was like entering an entirely new realm of strength.
But he gritted his teeth and held on.
A mont later, a bang sounded, and he broke the third limit.
Just as he did, everyone felt pressure upon them, unlike anything they had faced before. It was as though sothing very powerful, beyond their comprehension, had entered their world. It was a very surreal feeling that ca with the overwhelming pressure.
Sensing the overwhelming aura Astral was releasing and the strength of his current form, Grey Orion smiled. "You really are the strongest genius of the Magus Kingdom. All those geniuses aren't even fit to carry your shoes."
Astral looked at Grey Orion and responded with so difficulty. "I can go beyond this."
"You can?" Grey Orion seed surprised but then his expression turned into one of excitent. "Then do it. Let witness your full strength."
Astral nodded and closed his eyes as he prepared to break his fourth limit. Now that he had broken through the third limit, it wasn't difficult for him to break through the fourth and fifth limits.
It was like the third limit was so kind of barrier, a warning, so might argue, where going beyond that limit was entering the uncharted territory of strength or it was simply a warning that breaking the third limit was his body's limit.
Therefore, the last two limits of his body could be easily broken, like the first two. It was just that his body wouldn't be able to handle that level of power.
"What is his talent?" Orion asked as he sensed the strength of the current Astral.
"It's called the God of War body." Erick said, his eyes fully focused on Astral.
"God of War?" Orion muttered to himself and wondered if Astral was sohow related to this god of war. He didn't know if God of War existed or not but since God of Immortality existed, he thought perhaps there should definitely be a God of War too. After all, God of War was also a nad god, just like God of Slaughter and God of Immortality.
As Orion was thinking all of this, he saw Astral break through his fourth limit.
Bang!—
At that mont, Astral's form began to change. His body beca sowhat bulky and tall, while his hair beca so long that it cascaded down to his back.
Almost instantly, wind began to rage all around him, and trees began to sway once again in the forest.
"Once again!" He suddenly yelled and with a bang, a pressure so intense was released that it caused almost every individual below gold rank to have a hard ti breathing. Even so weak gold-ranking experts couldn't withstand this pressure and had their bodies slamd to the ground.
Astral stood in the air, his form glowing with a dark red glow instead of the usual dark orange.
"The fifth limit is broken." Erick exclaid in shock. Although he knew about Astral's five-limit ability, he hadn't ever seen him break through his limits. So, he was also quite shocked when he finally witnessed this with his own eyes.
"This much strength!" Orion was also quite shocked. He didn't want to accept it but he felt the current Astral could defeat him easily, even if he were to use every curse he had in his arsenal. He could only hold on to his own against him if he were to use three or more curses in the Curse Transformation mode.
"Fascinating! This is what true strength should be." Grey Orion exclaid. His face appeared excited, borderline crazy.
"Now co." He beckoned Astral with his hand.
Astral vanished from his position, appeared in front of Grey Orion and thrust his spear at him.
Grey Orion smiled as his hands materialised a lightning sword, and he swung it down to et the incoming spear.
BOOM!—
The intense collision between them shook the entire grey land. So trees in the forests were uprooted and blown away while a sand storm started to manifest in the desert.
But this was just their initial clash.
They soon separated and once again clashed and yet another shockwave radiated from their collision.
It was a clash of pure strength between them, each unleashing their full power without restraint.
A mont later, the people on the ground couldn't see them at all and could only hear the booming sound that ca each ti they clashed.
So gold-ranking experts could only discern a red and grey light clashing in the sky from ti to ti as the roar of thunder continued to sound.
"Too strong! Both of them are too strong!" Erick exclaid, his eyes wide with disbelief as he watched their battle unfold. He could barely follow their movents, but from what he could see, they were on another level from the rest of the people here.
Orion didn't say anything or react to their battle in any way, and he watched the battle in silence. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Orion, are you this strong?" At that mont, Elyn ca in and asked Orion the sa question Erick had asked earlier.
Orion shook his head. "No."
"Then, why is your clone so strong? Also, why is there a clone of you in the first place?" Elyn further asked.
Orion turned to look at her with irritation. "I don't know, okay? I've been thinking the sa thing the whole ti. Why is there a clone of here? Why is it so much stronger than ? But I don't have any answers to these questions." His voice conveyed frustration and confusion, his brows furrowing deeply as he tried to make sense of the inexplicable situation before him.
"I am just as clueless as you guys are." He sighed in the end and looked at both Erick and Elyn.
He asked them, "I suppose this form of Astral won't last long before he runs out of fuel, right?"
"We don't know. The rumour doesn't ntion how long this form lasts. It only says his body collapses after he stops using the five limits ability," Erick said, shaking his head.
"I know a few secrets. If I'm not mistaken, the maximum ti with all five limits active is about 10 minutes," Elyn said.
"10 minutes?" Orion frowned. "That ans we have around 7-8 more minutes before he cos after us."
All three of them had their faces turned dark at the mont. They had very limited ti at their disposal, and the enemy they were facing seed to be sothing beyond them.
"Damn it." Erick frustratingly smashed a tree beside him.
On the other hand, Orion closed his eyes, deep in thought.
Only Elyn looked at the battle and then, as if she thought of sothing, she turned to Orion.
She asked, "Do you know what your weakness is? Perhaps the clone shares the sa weakness as you, and we could use that to our advantage."
