Between the naked pair, Seth was silent while Minuha went chuckling, and then without letting out a hint, a dark pool rapidly spread from her feet, quickly making its way to Seth, and as it got closer, a black human mouth rose out of it and charged towards Seth.
Unlike the last time where this maw moved to swallow Seth, this time it kept its huge teeth shut and smashed into Seth, and then just like with the huge black sword, there was a loud thud, and then the black mouth exploded into dark pieces that lingered.
Other than the longer time it took the dark mouth to explode after the collision, everything had been the same as with the huge black sword, both attacks falling apart on collision.
With a relaxed expression, Seth began moving forwards, walking into the mass of dark pieces floating around and refusing to fade away.
In no time, Seth was through the debris, a calm look on his face when he arrived at the other side and saw no one, Minuha having once again bolted away.
Devoid of worry, Seth looked into the distance, shaking his head at the woman's ploy.
Immediately after her own exchange, Minuha had not just simply run off, she had first distanced herself from Seth, and then this time knowing that Seth was not someone she could outrun, she had split herself into more than a dozen shadows and then had each of them run off in multiple directions.
This was one of the outcomes of a battle between Seth and Minuha where he not to neutralize her natural ability to transform into a shadow.
In this situation, catching all of Minuha's shadows was an impossibility for him, yet it carried a heavy risk or more like a penalty in this station.
With this tact, if any of Minuha's shadows were captured it meant that when the woman reassembled her body, she would never be able to become an immortal rank cultivator, and with Seth being her enemy, this fate was all but assured.
Though this penalty was heavy, it beat being killed, so Seth couldn't call it a dumb idea.
Having figured out Minuha's ploy, Seth should have shot off and begun hunting down her fleeing shadows, but he did none of that, instead falling back on his ass, and resting on a back throne that appeared behind him.
"These levels of law are something else", Seth thought resting his back and closing his eyes, not needing his eyes to see as his soulsense told him all that was happening, and that was enough for him to operate.
Minutes went by, slowly coming to an hour, and then out of nowhere, a black pool appeared a few steps from Seth's throne, Minuha popping put and looking at Seth wroth a tight expression.
"What will it take for you not to kill me?" Minuha asked, defeat clearly in her tone
Standing there and watching Seth sit like a king she felt he rightfully was, Minuha felt wronged, but could do nothing. She wanted to firm up her mind and refuse defeat, but remembering what she had been through and learned in the last minutes destroyed her efforts and only made her shoulders sag.
…..Minutes ago with Minuha...….
Though she didn't have a lot of faith, Minuha had gone on to taunt and goad Seth about his ways of fighting her, and then to her surprise, her plan worked.
Seth let down on the darkness suppression he had been inflicting on the surroundings, a suppression which saw her unable to transform as she wished, and with this opportunity, Minuha readied another escape plan.
Immediately after the black maw charged at Seth, Minuha turned and fled, first keeping herself together so as to make maximum distance from Seth and his range of influence, and then without missing a beat, her body turned black and dissolved into dark pol which quickly separated into several other polls that moved away.
Though she felt fear of the risks of her actions Minuha wanted to survive so kept firm and charged ahead.
Her form split into many parts, Minuha's several shadows zoomed across the ground and then behind each of them, a huge black mouth suddenly rose from the ground and pursued.
While all the other shadows had a single maw pursuing after them, there was one who had two maws after it, this being a message from Seth that he knew where her core self was.
Minuha was shocked after making this understanding, but before she could think about it, one of the maws swallowed her.
Just like she had done with Seth when she began displaying the powers of mentalism, one second the maw was behind her, and then the next it was swallowing her, but in the end that didn't bother her after all she knew the truth of the mentalism level.
"My thoughts on my element manifest in reality" This was what Minuha had told Seth about mentalism, but now that Seth had also somehow shockingly ascended to the Immortal level, the secret was out of the bag and the truth of the abilities of the second level of mentalism were now out.
Minuha's words hadn't been a complete lie as truly her thought came into reality but rather than manifest which was a strong word the best and apt word would have been appear.
With mentalism, one could bring their understanding of their element into reality, manipulating it as they wished, but the problem was that this manifested thought would be a reality for only them.
Like how Seth had tried slashing Minuha but had cut nothing in the end, that was because that was how Minuha saw herself, and as demonstrated earlier by both Seth and Minuha, though they could conjure several types of attacks, these attacks could exert only a tiny bit of influence in the real world as they would easily crumble when faced with more than they can handle.
This was why Minuha had only to stuck to playing around with Seth but never attacking him when they last battled
With mentalism, Minuha was near unkillable as she could always imagine herself as a shadow and waddled through Seth's attacks.
Now as the maw closed in on her, she showed no fear, her shadowy form effortlessly smashing apart and charging forth, well that was until a giant black wall suddenly rose from the ground, surrounding Minuha and all her shadows in one giant circular fence.
