Chapter 584: Cleave
At Anthony’s words, the Vampire stared at him with nothing but burning hatred, but would he give in so easily? He tried to stand, but he realized his ankles weren’t responding. He didn’t know what had happened, but it didn’t matter anymore.
He simply floated, then shot into the sky as he vanished once more. Anthony’s ntal calculations had already predicted this exact mont just a second ago, yet Anthony didn’t react. He knew the Vampire wouldn’t surrender so easily after rely exchanging blows for a few short minutes.
Reality flipped under his perception as Authority of Severance activated. Threads blood into his vision, space unraveled. Anthony instantly severed the distance between them. But this ti, he didn’t appear before the Vampire. No, rather, the Vampire reappeared before Anthony, at the exact sa spot he had just fled from.
“As a Warlord, I’m sure you have enough brain cells to know that whatever you’re doing is futile, right?” Anthony asked with a faint smile as he stared at the Vampire.
But the Vampire rely smirked. His form bloated unnaturally, distorting as if becoming unstable. Then, without warning, his entire body detonated with apocalyptic force.
A wild shockwave erupted outward, stretching across hundreds of kiloters. Trees toppled, and the very earth shattered as massive ravines split open. A mushroom shaped storm stretched upward, towering over a hundred ters high, as if trying to touch the heavens themselves.
Earthquakes of seismic proportions rippled across the land. Dust storms surged forward as fus charred everything in their path, trees reduced to re splinters.
The dust began to settle a few minutes later, and from within the lingering haze, a boy with flowing white hair and serene blue eyes floated effortlessly, seemingly untouched by the destruction.
“So you chose suicide, huh?” Anthony murmured calmly.
“Too bad sneak attacks like that are useless against ,” Anthony intoned, a wry smile playing on his lips.
Simultaneously, he raised his hand and swiped across the empty space around him. In an instant, reality cracked, spiderweb-like fissures erupted through the air and shattered into countless glimring shards.
From within the newly exposed space, the Vampire shot out with a deep frown.
‘How did he find out?’ he thought, troubled.
When he had committed suicide earlier, it was nothing more than a ploy, a decoy to catch Anthony off guard. After self-destruction, he had resurrected himself then used an artifact to hide himself within a separate dinsion.
“I bet you’re wondering how I knew,” Anthony said as his eyes locked onto the floating Vampire.
“There’s simply no way you’d willingly kill yourself for sothing so trivial. Besides, Vampires are notorious for bringing themselves back to life through blood. Such tricks… they’re useless against ,” Anthony added, folding his arms behind his back.
As for the artifact’s effect, creating a hidden, separate space, it was rendered useless by Anthony’s Sense Do, which granted him layered awareness of everything around him, including fluctuations in dinsional space.
“Are you ready to end this charade?” Anthony asked, his voice calm and composed, his aura serene like the eye of a storm.
But deep within, he hoped the Vampire wouldn’t surrender. Where else would he find soone to test the limits of his newly broken boundaries?
Suddenly, across the Human Domain, panicked voices rang out in cries of terror as a series of explosions erupted outward with brutal force.
Anthony’s head turned slightly, his senses stretching forth, taking in the horror. Across the Human Domain, clones of the Vampire darted about, attacking innocents without pause or rcy.
Anthony’s expression didn’t change, his face remained a mask of neutrality. His eyes slowly returned to the Vampire who now floated above, wearing a victorious grin.
“I hope you love this gift,” the Vampire said. “I wonder… will you choose , or your fellow human rats?”
“It seems there’s no need to continue this ga,” Anthony murmured as his feet gently lifted from the ground, and he rose into the sky with tranquil grace.
The Vampire grinned wider. This was yet another ploy, an opening he had created to escape while Anthony would be forced to deal with his nurous clones.
“I’m sure you know the saying: ‘Under absolute power, all sches are useless,'” Anthony said as he finished rising.
In the past, Sense Do and Infinity had distance limits that depended on his mana rank. But now that he had broken through those constraints, such boundaries no longer held any aning. With his overwhelming mana reserves, Anthony could cloak the entirety of the Blue Planet in Sense Do and Infinity if he desired.
Mana had never been an issue for him.
In an instant, mana exploded outward in concentrated rings, before flooding the entirety of the Human Domain with roaring force.
The Human Domain spanned millions of kiloters. It was the largest Domain on the Blue Planet, as humans could reproduce freely without the bloodline shackles that burdened other races.
As Anthony’s mana surged outward in thunderous proportions, it drenched every inch of the Human Domain. Sense Do and Infinity blanketed all living beings within those millions of kiloters.
Anthony didn’t activate the pause function of Sense Do, no. He wanted everyone to witness what was about to happen.
Eyes across the Domain tore upward toward the heavens, seeking the source of this boundless mana. And there, they saw him.
A boy. A man. A god, white-haired and blue-eyed, floating above all.
Then ca a thunderous sound, the unmistakable ring of a katana being drawn from its scabbard. It echoed across the entire Human Domain, slamming into the ears of every being who could hear.
The light elent blossod across Anthony’s form, golden and brilliant, as his lips parted slightly.
[Endless Technique: Katana Series: Unending Cleave]
Then he surged forward, moving at a speed that transcended light itself. His katana slashed forward as he cleaved infinitely, across the entirety of the Human Domain. Every vampire clone he encountered was diced into ribbons before they could so much as blink.
Black and yellow lines intertwined, slashing through the air, filling every line of sight. Anthony moved faster than ever before, phantoms of himself painting the ground like streaks of divine retribution.
Every attack that was already in motion across the Human Domain was halted midair by Infinity. Every thought, every gesture, every intent the Vampire’s clones made was predicted and dismantled before it could materialize.
Anthony didn’t give them a chance.
He didn’t show rcy.
He didn’t hesitate.
