Chapter 1308 Law of Absolute Sword
"Khhwaakkk!!" Nux's real body coughed out blood as he fell to his knees.
"Nux!" Both Amaya and Riona widened their eyes in disbelief. They didn't even know he was standing behind them. The rest of his wives seemed worried as well.
Nux, on the other hand, couldn't believe what just happened. He...
He was just standing here...
How could he get hurt when it was his Clone that got cut?
Thinking about it, Nux suddenly recalled what Faelara once told him...
He glanced at Astaria, who had already moved towards his other clones, wanting to use the opportunity to gain a definite upper hand in the battle.
The Clones, which also had a part of Zenith Flow, reacted on their own. The Clone Astaria had attacked turned into white mist. In the Vampire Mist form, the body took no physical damage, so it was the perfect way to defend against sword attacks. However,
*Slash*
"Khhwaakkk!!" Astaria slashed away the white mist. As her sword passed through the Mist, Nux coughed out blood again, and the Clone disappeared.
Seeing his blood on the ground, Nux felt his body trembling. With all the training he went through, the pain he was currently feeling didn't affect him. It was the shock of being hurt when he wasn't even fighting directly that made him react this way.
He slowly stood up and glanced at the battlefield once again.
Despite the location of his real body being revealed to all, Astaria decided to completely ignore it and went for the weak clones. The higher the number of Clones she cut, the weaker the real Nux would be.
Her sword shined with a strange light as she rushed towards Nux's clones. Nux then ordered one of his clones to rush towards the woman in its Intangible Shadow Form.
"Lady Vyriana, Lady Aeliana, it would be great if the two of you could explain what is going on. How is Nux getting hurt when he isn't even the one fighting her?" Suddenly, Amaya, who had appeared behind the two, questioned with a frown on her face. She didn't like how Nux got hurt and was continuing to get hurt while trying to test the lengths of Astaria's new powers.
"What Law did Astaria form?" Amaya asked directly.
Vyriana glanced at the woman in front of her for a moment, deciding if she should answer the question or not, but suddenly,
"It is the Law of the Absolute Sword," Aeliana answered.
Vyriana glanced at her friend, but Aeliana continued her explanation.
"The Laws of Absolutes stand as some of the most formidable principles one can comprehend, transcending the boundaries of resistance or obstruction by any other laws unless those laws too bear the mark of the Absolute. Astaria, with her Law, has the power to imbue every sword she wields with a Power of the Absolute. A blade that transcends limits and can sever anything that stands before it. Picture a sword that cuts through not just flesh and bone but through the very fabric of reality itself. Whether it is a Spell or a Skill. Tangible or Intangible. Reality or an Illusion, Astaria's sword is capable of cutting through it all. At a higher level, her Sword can even cut emotions.
When Nux forms his Clone, since the Clones ultimately inherit his strength, there is an invisible, imperceptible, and insubstantial connection between him and his clones. For others, this was inconsequential, however, Astaria, with her sword, could cut that connection between him and his clones, hurting him in the process."
"A Sword that can cut through... anything...?" Amaya was shocked. She was having a hard time believing that something like this existed.
"H-How is one supposed to defeat that?" She questioned with a stutter.
"If Astaria could cut through anything, doesn't that make her the strongest in the world?" Hearing her question, Aeliana just chuckled.
"There are many things in this world that you still haven't seen, girl. That girl may be strong, but there are countless beings in the universe who are far stronger. Her Sword may be Absolute, but that doesn't mean it is unstoppable. Even Vyriana here could stop her sword with just her finger."
"That is because her Law is still too weak. She hasn't even formed her Law of Self yet. Once she does, she will be even stronger than her current self," Vyriana defended her disciple.
Amaya, however, didn't care about things like that. She only had one question in her mind,
"Does this mean that Astaria is currently stronger than Nux? Are you saying that Nux is going to lose against an opponent who is not a Divine Stage Cultivator?"
