So, depending on the "Breakthrough" and mastery-level swordsmanship, Rein barely managed to cope with the overwhelming offensive of the flesh roots.
However, Rein soon realized that his current level of swordsmanship still wasn't strong enough, unable to purely rely on swordsmanship to block many of the root attacks, forcing him to dodge at high speed!
This led to a very critical problem!
That is, Rein's current physical strength was being consud extrely fast!
Based on the current rate of exhaustion, Rein estimated that he could only maintain the "Breakthrough" state for about a minute, and even with those three remaining attribute points, it would be like a drop in the bucket, not lasting very long.
After a mont's thought, Rein quickly made a decision!
He imdiately added a Skill Point to the Giant Bear Sword Technique, and the panel showed Giant Bear Sword Technique lv6 (345/3000) → Giant Bear Sword Technique lv7 (345/5000).
In an instant, fragnted training segnts of the Giant Bear Sword Technique began to pour into Rein's mind and synchronously implanted into his muscle mory.
To Rein, it felt as though he had undergone years of arduous practice with the Giant Bear Sword Technique!
At this point, Rein gained a deeper understanding of the Giant Bear Sword Technique; although it was still at the mastery level, it had significantly improved.
At that mont, a majestic eagle flew over the ruined temple.
Its sharp eyes first showed a human-like surprise at the temple below; the next mont, it seed to hear the fierce fighting sounds and energy fluctuations coming from within the temple.
With a dive, it arrived at the top of the temple, quietly peering inside through the crevices of the collapsed structure.
The eagle that arrived was naturally the black-haired Elf.
Soon, with her Dark Vision talent, she was able to make out the battle situation inside the hall.
"Indeed... it's a Flesh Tree Spirit, those corrupted ones from the Mother Tree Cult have resurfaced, haven't they?"
If Rein were beside her, he would definitely be able to discern from the black-haired Elf's unfriendly tone that she had no fondness for the Mother Tree Cult.
"Eh? Where are the people from the church?"
"There was definitely a strong divine power fluctuation just now, which seems to be the aura of the gods of Monsoon and Ocean."
After a thorough search with her keen eagle eyes, the black-haired Elf finally spotted Rudolph and the others in a dim corner of the hall.
"Oh, they seem to be injured?"
"I thought I was going to enjoy a good show..."
The black-haired Elf seed hesitant about whether to join the battle.

It was not for any other reason but because she had no fondness for the people of the church either.
The various churches of mankind all considered her Druids to be heretics, so they did their utmost to avoid appearing before church personnel.
"Forget it, when this young Knight can no longer hold on, I'll help them out." After weighing the options with a frown, the black-haired Elf murmured.
-----------------
At this mont.
Inside the dim temple hall, Rein, who had improved his swordsmanship, wielded the Giant Bear Sword Technique with each move incredibly swift and fluid, creating the impression of watching a waltz of strength and beauty at quadruple speed!
Thanks to the "Exorcise" special effect of the Glimring Greatsword, as well as the increase in sword speed following the "Breakthrough," the Glimring Greatsword in Rein's hands now resembled a laser greatsword!
Thus, a radiant orb of light made up of high-speed dancing blades dashed left and right, speeding up and slowing down, and wherever it passed, the various sized flesh roots were severed and fell.
Even after being chopped off, these wildly flailing roots didn't lose their vitality imdiately; they continued to twist and bend, both in the air and on the ground.
Occasionally, the Flesh Tree Spirit would command a huge root the diater of a washbasin to strike at Rein, and at that mont, the white glowing blade orb would imdiately dodge.
After the upgrade to lv7, Rein's Giant Bear Sword Technique allowed him to endure much longer than the minute he was originally capable of, extending to at least two minutes, or even longer.
This scene left Rudolph, Lagaray, and the remaining Temple Knight dumbstruck!
Although they had witnessed Rein's fight against the Evil Spirit Knight and knew that Rein was highly skilled with both hamr and sword, they hadn't expected him to be this powerful!
It was as if he were fighting the Flesh Tree Spirit alone!
A single man turning the tide!
A single man reversing the situation!
However, Rudolph's brows soon furrowed.
"This way... it won't work.... Because before the multitude of roots from the Flesh Tree Spirit can be cut down, Rein's physical strength will likely be exhausted first!"
"Right, he's now initiated the Breakthrough but hesitates to use his Transcendent abilities, probably because he's worried about draining his strength too soon and falling out of the Breakthrough state."
"And once his speed slows down, Rein is done for. Human bodies can't withstand attacks from such massive roots!" The equally injured Temple Knight beside him also saw the issue, looking even more troubled.
In the eyes of both Rudolph and the Temple Knight, the situation Rein faced was almost a dead end.
Because even if Rein possessed great strength, at most, he could maintain the "Breakthrough" for about two minutes.
But what about after two minutes?
What to do then?
Defeat was the only outco waiting for him!
"Magini, perhaps... it's ti to use that move!" With a grave expression, Rudolph said to the severely wounded Temple Knight Magini beside him.
