Transmigrated as a Ghost

Chapter 592 The Sword Savant’s Waning Patience

With the Doomsday Worm suddenly changing direction towards Loursend, this left the plan Marcus had come up with Gwyneira and Retharin completely useless.

They had been expecting the enormous monster to follow Marcus into the center of the town, where they had congregated every mana furnace in the place and some from the surrounding areas along with tens of thousands of magic cores.

This would allow them to cause a massive mana explosion that would catch the monster off guard by blowing off its head and allow them to launch a heavy assault while it was injured and distracted.

The plan was for Retharin and Asher to slice the thing up as fast as they could, while Gwyneira froze its pieces, and Marcus fling them away to slow down its regeneration.

Of course, they knew this plan would not be enough to kill the thing, but it at least should have bought them a few hours, and all they had to do was sacrifice River Landing.

Yet the stupid monster that had been making a beeline south following the strongest signal of life had suddenly turned towards Loursend.

None of them could fathom why it had suddenly done this as it had shown no interest in heading that way before.

Unfortunately, it was actually due to how thorough their evacuation efforts were that the Dread Burrower decided to change direction towards Loursend.

Now that so many people had been moved away from its path, the large city on the coast was its closest prime target..

Also, it did not help that to this thing was actually very attracted to the sent of spirits even though it could not actually catch them, and in Loursend Voda and the lingering presence in the church from the great spirit of water who had visited recently were quite alluring.

Seeing the stupid worm change directions, Marcus pulled out his sending stone and contacted Gwyneira.

“Things are not going as planned. It has abruptly changed direction and is heading for Loursend. I do not know why it decided to head that way, but we are going to be in big trouble. We only evacuated the villages in its path and absurd range, but there are a few settlements in between here and Loursend that have not all been cleared out. At this rate that thing is going to be in range of Trostenwald in a couple of hours.”

In response to his detailed report all Marcus received was groaning, before a huge blast of cold energy shot down from the sky and hit the Doomsday Worm.

Half of its huge body was quickly frozen and dropping down from the sky were both Retharin and Gwyneira.

The two them began crackling with power and both unleashed devastating attacks that caused huge blasts.

Then following behind them Asher descended out of the sky and he suddenly shot forward in a flash.

“Second Form, Light Speed Slash.”

In an instant he carved a deep cut through the center of the Dread Devourer and nearly cleaved it in half.

Seeing this Marcus realized that they were trying to move forward with the plan even though their trap had been ruined.

However, as they had feared the monster was not just going to sit back and take this, and deep inside its mouth began glowing as it prepared to fire off its beam.

Yet before it could do this Retharin began pulsing with electricity and wind which he formed into a massive sphere of energy in his two front limbs.

When all of his power had collected he launched this projectile into the open mouth of the Doomsday Worm and its entire body rippled and was blown apart as the lighting and wind exploded inside it.

But while they thought this would stop its devastating beam attack, all they did was make it redirect all of this energy.

Instead of firing one massive beam out of its mouth it sent it into a number of its tendrils, and they began firing off thousands of smaller beams all over the place.

Suddenly it looked like a bullet hell game as Retharin and Gwyneira began flying around rapidly to dodge these beams that threatened to pierce through them.

On the other hand, Asher was using his seventh form, warding flash to knock away the attacks being sent at him.

Eventually the Doomsday Worm stopped its rapid-fire attack once it had fully recovered itself.

Still its rapid blasting had not been fruitless as it had hit Gwyneira and Retharin a number of time and forced them to retreat for now with pretty bad injuries.

As for Asher he had used his amazing techniques to defend himself. but it had taken a good deal of his strength to do so.

And now that he was pretty much the only one here to fight on the front lines he began the sole target of the never-ending tendrils.

‘Fine let me see how you like this.’ Asher thought.

He was not used to battles like this and normally fought with his all. Now he had gotten sick and tired of waiting around and trying to enact some sneaky plan.

“Supreme Skill, Beyond the Horizon.”

Holding his sword above his head, Asher began releasing a pure white aura that climbed up his sword and shot far into the sky.

As he amassed all of his power and prepared to unleash his strongest attack, the Doomsday Worm continuously sent its tendrils after him.

Except they could not get any where close to him as the white aura surrounding him protected him, and any of the tendrils that came near were cut down before they could touch him.

Unable to reach its prey and beginning to get annoyed by the lack of food it had found since its awakening, the Dread Burrower began contracting its body and prepared to launch itself into the air right towards Asher.

BOOM!

Jumping off the ground and creating an earthquake in its wake, the giant worm shot upwards at a blinding speed towards the Sword Savant.

“Sixth Form, Heaven’s Rending.”

Bringing his sword down in a wide slash the Sword Savant sliced right through the Doomsday worm cleaving it in half.

However, his attack was not done yet, as he changed the grip on his sword and swung it back up, slicing through the worm again.

He unleashed a number of swift and precise strikes until he had sliced and diced the monster into dozens of pieces.

His attacks as his supreme skill’s name suggested had literally gone beyond the horizon, and he had left scares in the earth where his extended attacks had cut through.

Also, the clouds in the sky had been split by his upward slashes, and the sea of clouds had been blown away and the sun shone through.

Truly it had been an impressive attack of the highest degreed and had done the most significant damage to the unstoppable monster so far.

It quickly fell to the ground in multiple pieces and a flood of blood and bile spread out over the area.

Yet even after being cut into numerous parts and having its body scattered around, the Doomsday Worm was far from dead.

Its tendrils began shooting out of its numerous pieces and it quickly started pulling itself together.
