Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 848: Kali's Efforts Bearing Fruit!

Kali rushed forward and clashed with the two-meter-tall, bulky-looking tribulation soldier. Right before the clash, she called one of the nature spirits she had summoned and fused it with her sword as she traced a beautiful arc.

The nature spirit was used to activate [Nature Spirit Sword Strike], a powerful sword strike that consumed the spirit to create a massively powerful blow.

The collision of weapons created a large explosion, sending a powerful shockwave to the surrounding areas. Kali felt the weight of the Heavenly Tribulation Soldier's attack and took several steps back while her sword and arm trembled. 'Strong.'

Her lips curled into a confident smile. 'This one is strong but not impossible to beat,' she thought, her eyes never leaving her opponent.

So, while her army took care of the other three in a brutal melee that was decimating Kali's army numbers, she fought the fourth one.

The attacks flew one after another while Kali cleverly used her [Ironbark Slicer], [Spirit Severing Sword], and [Nature Spirit Sword Strike].

[Ironbark Slicer] was a heavy cut that focused on pure offensive power. It could slice through most defenses and create large wounds. Against the Heavenly Tribulation Soldier, which was much more solid than she expected, it worked wonders in creating weaknesses.ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels

These weaknesses were then exploited by her quick [Spirit Severing Sword]. The attack was meant to attack souls more than physical bodies. Yet, the Heavenly Lightning Solider had an energy that kept it together, acting like something like a soul.

It was a creature created by the heavens, so it was naturally much more complex than your average summon.

Therefore, the attack worked perfectly fine.

Finally, when she had the chance, [Nature Spirit Sword Strike] would be unleashed, dealing devastating damage.

Adding to all of the above the fact that she had several aura and enhancing skills that she could use on herself, the fight that started being somewhat even became one-sided once Kali was fully strengthened.

The three-tailed fox swung her sword one time after another, smashing the Heavenly Lightning Soldier backward. After a while of fighting back and forth, she managed to land a decisive blow that blasted it into pieces.

Right after that, she turned around and observed the battle situation. The three other Heavenly Lightning Soldiers had been highly weakened by her army at the cost of more than two-thirds of the creatures she had summoned.

Without a single moment of rest, Kali joined the fray, whittling them down with quick and decisive blows.

After dealing with them, Kali didn't even need to look around to know that she had to summon before the four above descended. So, she unleashed her skills and began another round of summoning.

Her life energy spread around and used the corpses of the plants, similarly opening the ground to grow more creatures.

However, she didn't manage to refill her entire army before the remaining four Heavenly Tribulation Soldiers swooped down. Kali realized that these were faster than the previous four, making her frown.

However, she quickly calmed down and controlled her one hundred dryads to face one of them while she ordered the ones summoned by her innate skills to fight another.

Then, she sent the rest of her army to fight the third one, and finally, she went forward and fought the fourth one by herself.

The attacks thrown everywhere were creating wide arrays of destruction. Of all four of them, the one fighting the common creatures was slaughtering them with relative ease.

The fast sword rumbled as it moved, summoning lightning arcs that destroyed the creatures between itself and Kali.

The 100 dryads were having trouble keeping theirs in check, but thanks to the passive skill Valeria used and adding Kali's auras, they could somewhat keep up.

Meanwhile, the powerful and varied creatures created by Kali's innate skills were doing relatively well. Although their roles were completely random, their individual strength was high enough that they could resist the onslaught created by the Heavenly Lightning Soldier.

Meanwhile, Kali was having more trouble with this last soldier, receiving injuries in their exchange.

Together with the remaining 21 creatures, Kali attacked and used them as bait. While she didn't really want to play such battles, she had no other choice at the moment.

20... 17... 13...

The number of creatures quickly decreased as the powerful Heavenly Lightning Soldier sliced through one after another. The flashing blade of the creature was dreadful as it passed several times close to Kali's neck, and others even managed to hit her on her chest, waist, and three tails, creating deep wounds.

With her body at its limits, Kali swung her sword as if it were made of a super dense material. Even moving the shoulder and arm to make the movement needed tremendous effort.

Using her remaining seven creatures, she launched them all at once at it, and then she threw herself a beat later.

The Heavenly Lightning Soldier, filled with cracks and looking exhausted from the faint lightning bursts, gathered energy and slashed at a ludicrous speed seven times, dividing every single creature into pieces.

Kali's face tightened as she saw an eighth swing coming her way, and she quickly changed her footwork, dodging sideways.

The lighting sword slashed down at the place where she stood, but Kali didn't look at it.

Her face warped with effort and pain, and she spun her body, gathering every single bit of energy inside of her toward her sword.

"AHHHH!"

With a loud scream, Kali released a massive sword strike that landed on the Heavenly Lightning Tribulation Soldier cleanly.

"DIE!"

BOOM!

The creature exploded into particles, and a torrent of winds surged from Kali's sword swing.

With her energy and stamina depleted, Kali's legs trembled as she almost lost balance. However, when she was about to fall, a profound surge of energy burst from her core.

The energy around her rushed toward her like a hurricane, creating a large torrent of Life, Nature, and Wood energies.

Kali's eyes opened wide as a surge of energy filled her dry insides and spread around her body.

A large part of that energy gathered in her chest, right below her heart, and created the [Epoch Core]. Then, even more energy rushed into her soul and entered her Beast Core, transforming it into a [Legendary Beast Core].

This process was gradual and didn't happen at once. Moreover, during this time when her Spiritual, Body, and Beast paths were breaking through, Kali felt a surge of bloodline power coming from deep within her marrow.

She controlled her energy with impressive mastery and filled her bones with it. Kali could see how her bones became blackish as they secreted impurities.

The medicinal effects of her pills activated here, and they covered her bones from the inside, aiding all the impurities to be cleansed from deep within and expelling them through her skin glands.

This gave her a somewhat unpleasant look, as black goo that had a really strong odor was slowly secreted from her body.

However, no one present cared and looked on with serious expression.

The process lasted for a week, and by the end of it, a gorgeous fourth tail had appeared by the side of the other three.
