Chapter 218: Ch 218: Attack (2)
Even though that period of time was very short, for a Rein boosted by rain gain, that much time was enough to end a battle or two. So Rein was still satisfied with the outcome.
Rein only had a total of 11 of these modified rain stones with him so needed to be careful about their use but still it was not a big deal.
As Rein was thinking about all these while feeling relaxed, the spatial rift started to attack him again. It did not target any of his lovers and only came for him. Rein was able to even feel a slight hostility from the will of the spatial rift.
Rein was actually relieved that the spatial rift was not targeting his lovers. They had become quite powerful after reaching the true god realm but still they were not strong enough to keep up with the spatial rift. So Rein was happy that it was targeting only him.
Another thing that surprised Rein was the fact that he felt hostility from the will of the spatial rift. The last time when he was attacked, the will of the spatial rift was much more neutral. It was ferociously attacking him with the intention of killing him but still there were no hostile feelings behind that. It was like a machine trying to eliminate its target.
But now Rein felt that the will of the universe genuinely hated him. At first Rein had thought that the will of this place was still immature and was incapable of emotions but it looked like he was wrong. He was also able to guess the reason why this will hated him so much. It definitely did not like how Rein had broken the spatial barrier when running away from here the last time.
The spatial rift attacked rein the same way. Creating deadly fissures and compressing the space around him. But this time these attacks were not new or unpredictable for Rein so he was able to deal with them very calmly and with much more ease than before.
While Rein was busy fending off the attacks from the spatial rift, his lovers were busy killing as many demons as they could. As none of the demons present in this area were demon gods, they were not able to provide any resistance to the ladies and were killed left and right.
When more than 80 percent of the people living in this area had died, finally two demon gods appeared and attacked the ladies in rage. They were extremely angry after losing many demons in such a short amount of time and they wanted to teach these ladies a lesson.
After just a dozen of exchanges, it was the two demon gods who were pushed back. They had not expected this outcome at all and were extremely surprised.
Even though the number of humans was more than the number of demons, it was higher only by 1. Not only that but according to the common sense, a demon god was supposed to be way stronger than a human true god. Normally three human true gods could barely manage to hold their own against a demon god.
So the way these three ladies were not only able to perfectly defend against them and was able to even overpower them. That made all those demon gods to become dumbstruck for a moment.
Other than Rein, there was no other human cultivator who had ever managed to overpowered a demon god. The demons had always thought that Rein was an abnormal case, so they were still sure of their superiority. But now their hopes and pride were shaken once again when three unknown ladies appeared before them who also had powers on the similar level as them.
The reason for that was actually very clear. It was not like Mei, Suzu and Lan were more talented than the people who had managed to become true gods in the past or Rein fed them something insane. The reason was simple. Demon gods were also not supposed to be this strong but all the current demon gods were because it was the world who was responsible for their powers.
These demon Gods had gained the blessing of the world to become this powerful.
The blessing of the made it so that anyone without the blessing would become weaker when fighting against them. But the debuff was useful to others who also had the blessing of the world. And now all the ladies had managed to gain that blessing so they were not restricted by the that debuff. That was the reason why they were able to match the demon gods in strength.
But still, as none of the ladies were overwhelmingly stronger than the demon gods, they were not able to gain the victory immediately. The demon gods were even getting confident that they might even be able to defeat the ladies after a long and hard battle. But as the battle progressed that did not happen.
Slowly but surely the ladies actually started to take a lead in the fight. The reason for that was not because Rein\'s lovers were fighting extremely well but because of luck. There were many times when their enemy demon god failed to initiate a move or lost his balance for stupid reasons.
These little problems happening constantly with the demon gods allowed the ladies to gain an advantage in the fight.
While fighting those ladies and the demon gods were going further and further in the rift and the area of destruction was spreading more and more. No one had any idea how this battle was going to end.
...
While on the other side, Rein had managed to find a way to stop the spatial rift from attacking him. There were several known points that were responsible for detecting the target for attacking. They were like the eyes of the spatial rift. If Rein could disable those eyes, he would be able to stop the spatial rift from attacking him in certain areas. So currently he was doing just that.
...
As for Lu Shi\'s team, they had perfectly taken their position and had gotten the news about the current situation from Rein. So after learning that Rein was partially able to use the rain stones, they were even more relaxed. Now they just needed to attack at the perfect moment.
So everyone was getting ready for the final fight.
