Absolute Soul

Absolute Soul
61. Physical Strength vs Green Fire III


The appearance of the Jade Empress Robe caused a commotion within the arena. Because since the match against Carlos, Cecil has never deployed this one technique until now.


"Jade Empress Robe," murmured Cecil could feel the warm flame dress enveloping him.


The changes to Cecil managed to make Heru become more alert than before. Although still a Blazer candidate, Heru could feel the pressure of soul energy produced by Cecil was not kidding for someone who would be a first-class Blazer.


Not only the pressure of his soul energy that could not be underestimated, the compatibility of Cecil and Heru's abilities was arguably very bad. Wh why? This was due to the pure power against fire, in this sense alone it could be seen how disadvantageous Heru was.


If fighting ordinary fire users alone might Heru still be able to excel far, but the fire of the Jade Phoenix? One of those rare Soul Arc that might amount to nothing more than the fingers of both hands that had troublesome healing abilities? That's gonna be hard.


It is true that Heru can use Air Smash which is able to dispel fire, but the technique also does not mean that it has no consequences.


Besides Heru's physical condition is not the same as Haikal who has been destroyed and forged repeatedly in the process of inhuman physical training, the consumption of soul energy to exert Water Smash is not small.


Again Heru's condition was not the same as Haikal so it was difficult for him to deploy Air Smash repeatedly as Haikal did.


"Difficult is by no means impossible," Heru's inner self did not intend to lose intentionally or give up, he exerted all his remaining soul energy to strengthen the body as well as sharpen his own concentration.


As Heru focused his attention on concentration, Cecil swung one of his hands forward and created a roll of green fire waves crashing at Heru at high speed.


Heru who was still tense was suddenly startled by Cecil's surprise attack so without a second thought he jumped up to avoid the green fire waves, unfortunately Heru's movement had been anticipated by Cecil.


Deftly Cecil instantly created dozens of long green flame needles that immediately shot towards Heru quickly. It again made Heru stunned when he realized Cecil's second attack.


Heru clenched one of his hands for a moment while clucking in admiration looking at Cecil, "He anticipated my steps meticulously and immediately launched a counterattack," heru muttered inwardly before swinging his arms against dozens of fire needles utilizing the air pressure in a single swing, "Amazing."


"Not finished!" Cecil exclaimed loudly and put his palms together in front of his chest and then launched the next attack in the form of dozens of green fire spears that he formed just below Heru using the waves of fire waves that he mustered previously, "Garden of Jade Flame!"


While in the air Heru could not change the direction of the fall freely, this was then utilized by Cecil who was being benefited by the attack of his vast area.


"Smart move!"


"With this Heru cannot escape!"


Most of the audience praised Cecil's smart move, but most of them forgot that the Salvia Group was the number one group in surpassing their expectations, even Heru was not left behind.


Heru smiled slightly in response to the move taken by Cecil, "You've already exerted a lot of soul energy for this attack, but I'm sorry I have to avoid it!"


Heru gathered a large amount of soul energy and concentrated all of it on his soles, then stomping and releasing everything in one footing kicked the air which resulted in an action that no one could have guessed.


The entire audience was wide-eyed by Heru's senseless action just now. Not only did it reject gravity, but it also shot towards another direction after it looked like it was kicking something in the air?


If it is a Wizard-type Blazer then it is understandable, but a Warrior-type Blazer? Blazers who fight using their own bodies?


"What just now...." Veindal in his room stood up when he saw the secret behind Heru's movement that was considered impossible. His smile expanded so wide that it looked creepy.


Cecil got up from his sleeping position after being hit by a crushing kick from Heru while grimacing and confused, "What just now?"


"Shoulder? Ah, I call it Air Stomp—although I imitate it from Haikal anyway," replied Heru casually not feeling guilty after putting a kick on the body of a girl.


Air Stomp can be said to be Air Smash, it's just that Air Stomp uses the foot and serves as a temporary air foothold that can change the position and direction of its users.


Different from Air Smash which focuses on attacking, Air Stomp is intended for air movement which is usually impossible to do using physical strength alone.


The consequences of this technique are also equivalent or even more than Air Smash because it uses more soul energy and is forced to support weight on a non-solid surface.


Cecil could second-guess the secret behind the air movement that Heru did a moment ago, but he did not believe Heru was capable of such a thing with just physical strength alone.


"Wherever it is, it will not close the fact that I am on the verge of defeat." Cecil felt the stomach hit by Heru's kick had been better, then created tens to hundreds of small green fireballs once again around him, "Jade Fireball – Barrage!"


Without wasting much time, Cecil immediately aimed dozens of small fireballs at Heru who currently seemed to be in pain for some reason. Of course this opportunity will not be wasted by Cecil.


Heru who was grimacing in pain was slightly surprised to see tens to hundreds of green fireballs the size of a tennis ball coming at him quickly. He wanted to take a step back to dodge but his feet did not hear the commands from his brain.


"Damn it, this must be the effect of the Air Stomp," Inner Heru felt an excruciating pain on the side of his foot that he used to stand on the air before, the Air Stomp.


Heru's weight is normal among male Wulodhasia, but with his body condition now, using Air Stomp will only hinder rather than help him because of these side effects.


His body was not as strong as Haikal who had been doing inhumane exercises routinely for the past two months so the Air Stomp effect could not be suppressed as far as Haikal could.


In the last moments before the dozens of green fireballs stayed a few more snags about his body, Heru got a crazy idea.


"It's a crazy idea with a bad bet, but it's worth it!" Heru exclaimed inwardly strengthening his intention, then smashed the arena floor with all his might to shatter and raised the pieces of the floor.


When dozens of green fireballs touched the pieces of floor that were struck by Heru, they all exploded in chains.
