Chapter 1988: Skylark Shreds The Void

Natalya watched Adlet Rayburn prepare his technique while she also prepared hers to counter him.

A large part of the area he was standing in became covered in a luminous silver light. It then condensed into an elongated yet curved stick that had a string attached to it at two ends.

Adlet Rayburn used the remaining luminous silver light to condense a half a meter long arrow.

"A bow and arrow?"

Natalya muttered before she felt a vague unease as she saw him nock the arrow in the bow, pulling the bowstring with it, causing space to tremble visibly.

"Skylark Shreds the Void!"

*Rrk!~*

Adlet Rayburn's staunch voice echoed as he let go of the bowstring when everyone could hear the sound of an arrow leaving the bow along with the wind shredding and space tearing.

Before the people could see what had happened, the silver arrow unceremoniously put a hole through Natalya's icy-blue lotus and shot past her, heading straight towards the barrier before it exploded.

*Boom!~*

Part of the barrier disappeared, replaced by a gaping spatial maw that tried to suck in its surroundings. Abruptly, the frames of the seatings had their own barriers activated, protecting the spectators.

"What great piercing power!"

The people couldn't help gasp in fright as they saw the icy-blue lotus explode right at the time the barrier exploded, almost sucking them in if it were not for the new barrier that suddenly activated to protect them.

Nonetheless, their thoughts about the arrow were similar to what Natalya thought as she dodged and fled.

And her instincts were spot on.Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

*Rrk!~*

Another luminous silver arrow shot towards her with tremendous speed. The silver arrow possessed a beautiful tail that was only visible to a few capable eyes, making them understand that it looked similar to the skylark's tail, adapting its laws. Most people couldn't even see how that arrow flew through the skies. They only got to see it when a part of the barrier was destroyed.

Still, the arrow tearing apart space could be clearly seen heading towards the Yin Lotus Fairy even if there was a delay in their senses! Could she dodge again without the support of her lotus?

However, what couldn't hit her wouldn't be able to damage her. Not only was she actively dodging but also not attacking him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the time to condense such a powerful arrow either. Therefore, she was not worried about being injured and practiced dodging those powerful and speedy arrows using this rare occasion.

If Adlet Rayburn learned of her thoughts, he might spurt a mouthful of blood from being treated as a practice. Since he didn't know of such thoughts and was just intent on hitting her at least once, he kept shooting his arrows made of Silver Radiant Skylark's Light.

However, no matter how he aimed, his arrows seemed to always miss.

Natalya made one full round around the battle stage, but the barrier had not healed yet as space was still stitching itself back.

Natalya glanced at the crowd. If she dodged again, the arrow would go straight to the spectators, hitting them into oblivion, or perhaps, the spatial crack might even twist it, causing it to curve and hit some other places. She then glanced at Adlet Rayburn, looking at him nock the arrow into his bow.

She suddenly stopped dodging and walked towards him in mid-air.

The air around her changed, becoming more icy and frigid. It was as though the space in the surrounding kilometers turned into a world of ice that even Adlet Rayburn felt a chill, pausing for a moment as he saw her actions.

"The lotus I summon is a very basic technique that can be used in numerous forms. The technique I'm going to show you is a true technique from the manual I practice."

*Rrk!~*

Adlet Rayburn strengthened his arrow even more as he heard her explain before he unleashed Skylark Shreds The Void.

Natalya took three steps forward and came to a stop. She raised a hand and abruptly pushed her hand towards the arrow.

"...!"

Many people who saw this scene became aghast, and even Davis felt his heart skip a beat.

*Bang!~*

Natalya forcefully received the arrow to her palm, but the strange thing was the arrow was stopped, trembling in front of her palm as it tried to pierce through a tiny field of yin energy that rapidly spun, lowering the speed and intensity of the Skylark Shreds the Void.

Even the luminous silver arrow's ability to tear the space was restricted in her hand!

'Why is it not exploding!? She contained the energy!?'

Adlet Rayburn became shocked to see before an epiphany hit him.

Her yin energy served to lessen the impact and also kept it from exploding, and just as he raised his hand to manually detonate his technique, Natalya clenched her palm into a fist, causing the silver arrow to crack. Its tail rapidly constricted as though it was going to collapse on itself.

The swirling yin field directly collapsed the silver arrow, causing it to shatter into silver ice shards.
