Chapter 256 Fighting A God
"Don\'t worry, I\'ll ensure you\'re alive and healthy after this," Flinch said as he licked his lips.
"You can try..." Maximus also smiled.
Instead of nervousness, he was a little bit excited.
Although he estimated that his strength was comparable to an apex tier.
That was just a theory, after all.
He wanted to see if he could match an apex sovereign with just his strength.
Without saying anything, Flinch teleported behind him and slashed him with a dagger coated with the essence of law.
As Maximus\'s domain was already spread, he could feel every particle of reality happening before him.
However, before his thoughts, body, and spirit could move, time seemed to stop, and the daggers accelerated.
Thud!
Maximus was sent flying, crashing through the grass.
"Cough!"
"Cough!"
Maximus felt every part of his body hurt from the attack.
"Is this the essence of law?" Maximus thought.
Recalling the scene, it seemed that Flinch employed time law, speed law, slow law, and many others.
His mind just went blank until he was sent to the ground.
Fortunately, his defensive domain and special physique were open at any time.
Getting up, he looked warily at Flinch.
"Interesting that you can take my shot and survive unscathed," Flinch admired.
Initially, he thought the kid\'s tier 9 protection amulet would be activated.
Who knew that he took his attack with just his body?
Fortunately, he was safe and sound.
Otherwise, he would be punished if it was known that he killed such a talented seedling.
"It will not wo-" As Maximus was talking, Flinch had teleported behind Maximus again and repeated the same trick.
Unfortunately, with Maximus\'s god-level fighting consciousness, the same trick couldn\'t hit him twice.
As Flinch jeered at him, Maximus quickly mobilized his domain to perform a series of automated programmed tasks.
As Flinch slowed down Maximus\' time and accelerated his own, the opposite suddenly happened.
Maximus quickly accelerated, and he began to slow down.
Before Flinch could think of anything, he saw a fist coming into his face.
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
Like a rock hitting the lake, Flinch bounced a few times before stopping.
"I told you it would not work," Maximus muttered.
The same attack pattern, the same method.
Maximus quickly managed to set his domain, reversed the law of order, and hit Flinch in the face.
"Damn, what kind of evildoer are you?!" Flinch angrily muttered.
Although Maximus\'s punch did not damage him, he was still very embarrassed.
A junior manage to hit him in the face?
If the others knew this, they would laugh at him, the Thief Saint, to death.
"It\'s just that Senior is easy to read," Maximus said humbly.
"Then see if you can read this..."
Flinch teleported beside him again.
This time, his body split multiple times, surrounding Maximus from every angle.
Although Maximus was frozen in time, his domain quickly worked to control the essence of law coming into him.
"Hehe, do you think this will work the second time?" Flinch thought as he sneered.
This time, he reversed his operation, slowing down his time and hastening Maximus\'s time.
He had to be this troublesome because this kid is really evil.
His domain seems to be able to displace even the essence of law.
What\'s more heaven-defying is that he can\'t sense how it operates.
Just as the essence of law was about to hit Maximus and be reversed, a shock appeared on his face.
The law that was supposed to be reversed was absorbed by Maximus.
Now, looking at Maximus, who suddenly became faster.
It was too late for Flinch to do anything, and he was sent flying again.
Thud!
"How can the same thing work again?" Maximus asked with a smile.
He had already read through Flinch\'s thoughts.
Unless he could unleash a stronger attack, everything was useless.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk,"
"What an evil thing!"
"Goodbye!" Flinch didn\'t bother anymore and quickly teleported out.
He felt that he was being played by Maximus instead of him playing.
Such an evildoer; he didn\'t want to stay any longer.
Although he had more skill and power in his arsenal, he didn\'t dare to waste it on some brat.
Gathering the essence of law is time-consuming.
Like the particle of the essence of law that he spent on Maximus.
To gather that amount, he needed about 15 years of nonstop cultivation.
As for the power of law, that he could have all he wanted, it didn\'t work.
Maximus seemed to be isolated by some barrier, preventing any power of law from coming in.
"Sigh, I hope that kid wouldn\'t spread the news of my blunder..."
...
Maximus, seeing Flinch get away, heaved a sigh of relief.
Although he is relaxed right now and seems to have everything under control.
In reality, his brain was working in overdrive.
He even used life points every millisecond to give him more time to think.
"An apex sovereign is really not easy," Maximus sighed.
Although he just used his power and didn\'t use any treasures to fight.
It proves that the horror of an apex sovereign is still something he needs to be in awe of.
His domain can\'t do anything to the essence of law at all.
They were like powerless twigs pushing a tree.
If it were not for his fast thinking and calculation, he couldn\'t even reflect it like he did earlier.
More importantly, Flinch only played with him and didn\'t dare to unleash a more powerful attack.
"It looks like I still have a lot to go..."
Looking around, he suddenly remembered that he needed to go to the Gold Hive Outpost.
"Damn, that thief didn\'t send me back!" he cursed.
Fortunately, he marked the coordinates of the Gold Hive Outpost before that thief manipulated the teleportation transmission.
Otherwise, he would need to return to Purgatory City and retake the teleportation array.
Mobilizing his teleportation and barrier-breaking domain and physique.
He was quickly teleported to the designated outpost.
...
Gold Hive Outpost:
"Huh~" Maximus exhaled the air as he looked around.
"Tsk, I wasted a few days\' worth of focalization mana," Maximus clicked his tongue in thought.
The focalization mana is the energy he gathered for the ticket to the Etherium realm.
To go through the harsh and thick abyss, he still needed some energy to pass through it.
Just when he was in thought, a man suddenly shouted at him.
"You there! Go quickly to the front wall to help!"
"Oh," Maximus nodded.
He nearly forgot he was here to be backup, not on vacation.
Looking at the abyss monster tide happening on the wall.
He quickly scanned for abyss monsters with abyss source inside of them to kill.
Although it\'s rarer than in Eternal Ruin Outpost, some abyss monsters still have abyss source with them.
...
Purgatory City, Divine God\'s Quarters:
While Maximus was helping the Gold Hive Outpost through the abyss tide.
In luxurious quarters filled with divine energy and luxury.
Flinch came back nonchalantly, pretending that nothing happened.
Coming to the quarter\'s deck, he saw two of his \'friends\' playing Etherium chess.
"Flinch, you are here," the God of Gamblers Betarus greeted.
"What happened to your face? Did you encounter something?" the God of Shadow Nyx noticed something odd and asked.
"Oh, I just found some treasure," Flinch reasoned.
"You still need to do better when you want to lie," Nyx pointed, urging Flinch to tell the truth.
"Sigh, I failed to steal from someone." Knowing that he is busted, Flinch confessed.
"Hahaha, whose great being is this that prevented you from stealing?" Betarus laughed and asked.
"Some evil kid!" Flinch said, gritting his teeth.
"What\'s the name of the kid? I\'d like to meet such an evildoer. I\'ll see if we can gamble with each other."
"Maximus Shadowcrest, tsk, what a hateful name,"
"Hahaha, I can\'t wait to meet such an interesting kid!" Betarus laughed happily.
"Maximus Shadowcrest?" Nyx paused for a moment and thought.
"Interesting, it seems that kid got my treasure!" Nyx thought with interest.
About a century ago, when he was treasure hunting in the cursed continent, in the sunburnt plateau.
He briefly felt the presence of a treasure.
Unfortunately, his subordinates failed to find the treasure.
Then, the Etherium Embassy began to interfere, which is why he retreated to the abyss realm to let the wind pass.
After investigating what happened that time, he noticed an individual who rose fiercely like a rocket.
From ascending to the throne, ruling an empire, and becoming a top student at the most prestigious institution.
All of it had the shadow of Maximus Shadowcrest.
Initially, he thought that all of it was a coincidence.
However, hearing Flinch failed to rob such a kid.
Nyx thought that there was definitely something weird with the kid.
Perhaps it\'s the treasure from the previous apex sovereign of the Nexus continent.
Perhaps it\'s a treasure naturally birthed from the former continent.
Anyway, Nyx\'s interest was aroused, and he couldn\'t help but pay more attention to such a kid.
