Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 264: Alucard's Essence



The tunnel suddenly lit up with green energy as many life forces moved toward Thalia.

A red energy started condensing at the tip of her finger. It was very small, like a pebble, but MingYue could feel the concentrated energy in it.

It wasn't blood. It was like pure destruction that would annihilate everything in its way.

Thalia's eyes glinted with a crimson glare.

Swish!

The energy shot out like a ray of laser, reaching the barrier in no time.

She focused it all on one point to ensure it was enough to pierce a hole in the barrier.

Cracks started appearing, and both of them quickly moved to enter.

Meanwhile, back to Alex, the situation had completely changed. Just as he expected, the other Vesa were playing possum, trying to bait him into lowering his guard.

Alex didn't know the reason for Vesa's other actions, but he didn't want to find out.

Seeing this tactic fail, the other Vesa, with annoyance, started showing his real strength. His speed rose to a whole new level as he started spamming runes like crazy.

As Alex did his best to dodge, his leg got trapped by a sudden crack that appeared on the ground.

Many stone pillars started rising upward, turning into chains to capture Alex. They moved at a speed that Alex couldn't dodge.

But Alex still didn't let them capture him. He went to the extreme to avoid this.

He cut off his own arms and limbs, then regenerated them at a fast rate as he kept moving a few steps ahead, focusing on ensuring his torso wouldn't be bound.

This was one of the times when he was reminded of how he couldn't use his ability to its maximum potential.

He knew how fast the chains moved, what angle they came from, where they would reach, and how they would turn, but his mind couldn't calculate all this fast enough for his body to react in the right way.

The best he could do was focus on specific targets.

His clothes were torn and stained with red blood. One of his hands was still regenerating while both his legs were gone.

"You are all talk and no bite, huh? Can't even catch half a man," Alex said in a teasing tone, trying to bait him.

The other Vesa looked at him with annoyance. As he started restraining his attack, he was worried. If he pushed Alex too much, the Vesa inside him would react.

The other Vesa's goal was to consume Alex's Vesa first, but it never came out at all. Even though Alex and MingYue's Vesa had more essence, he still felt stronger as he had some power of gluttony.

This allowed him to start eating away at the progenitor essence in his hand. Even though the process was hard and slow, it succeeded in allowing him to create this strong body.

As he thought about the best method to capture Alex, Alex also didn't give up. He was trying to locate where Alucard's essence was.

He was sure it wasn't in the other Vesa's body; otherwise, when he stabbed through his eyes, he should have felt the trace.

Even though this Vesa seemed to come out from the goblet similar to the one that MingYue had told him about before, he still believed the essence existed elsewhere, and this Vesa was just doing that for show.

His eyes darted around the empty space that stretched to infinity, 'This is an illusion for sure, which means it's somewhere in the outskirts area, but which direction should I go?'

As he thought about this, the space started to shake, and a crack appeared in the sky, making the other Vesa turn his gaze upward with annoyance.

Alex, meanwhile, didn't look up. He could feel MingYue's presence the moment the crack appeared. He used this moment to search for something unusual.

As the illusion faltered, Alex realized there were many black rocks scattered around the area. These rocks looked normal at first, but now some of them started showing distortions, briefly revealing some rune engravings.

Without hesitation, using his newly regenerated legs, Alex stepped on the ground, utilizing his secret move, moving like a blink to one of the rocks.

The other Vesa realized this, his face turning ugly, but before he could intervene, Thalia kicked him right in the face, launching him into the air.

'Alex, are you alright?' MingYue asked.

'I am fine; thankfully, we have abundant life force here in the atmosphere; otherwise, I would probably already have run out with how many times I've regenerated,' he replied.

Alex then told MingYue to go after some of the stones scattered in the area. He told her his suspicion that it was Alucard's essence.

Thalia, meanwhile, didn't give the other Vesa any break. Blood seeped out, covering her whole body, it than become solid turning her into a Valkyrie warrior.

Two vampire wings appeared, and her crimson armor gleamed menacingly. A huge blood lance then appeared in her hand. With a swift motion, she threw it toward the other Vesa.

SWISH! BOOM!

It reached the speed of sound, instantly appearing inches away from the other Vesa.

"GROOOAR!" An otherworldly roar came out from his mouth as the purple pattern on his head started glowing.

He decided to focus all his attention on the fight now, as Thalia was not someone he could underestimate.

That is why he always tried hard to lure Thalia to consume Alucard's essence. This way, he could try taking over her form inside.

Two demonic horns appeared on his forehead, and his wings flapped as he dodged the attack.

But like a homing missile, the lance curved back at the other Vesa.

Thalia raised her finger, and ten more blood lances appeared in the air.

Swoosh! SWOOSH! Swosh!

BOOM!

She bombarded the other Vesa nonstop. Dust and debris exploded upward, blocking the view with dust.

But this was not a problem for anyone on the battlefield.
