The daggers' speed increased fivefold, nearing hypersonic speeds, and it amplified even more once Horteus enhanced the Life Wave with his Ego Wave.
A cultivator at the Second Realm of the Ego Eternal Path of Power could improve their Astral or Essence Wave with their Ego Wave. Typically, Essence Cultivators control the Life Wave to enhance their spells, while Astral Cultivators infuse their Ego Wave into their Astral Wave, pushing their bodily enhancements to the next level.
Cain normally didn't use either of those skills since he preferred to use his Ego Wave as fuel for the skills of his Alter-Ego. After all, Radiance of Life and Radiance of Strength offered a much more effective boost in battle power but consumed a tremendous amount of energy.
However, seeing those daggers, Cain immediately envisioned a new battle style. His mind was potent enough to split into several trains of thought, and if he employed those daggers, his abilities and range would significantly enhance.
"I call them Blood Nails. Not only can they achieve extreme speed, but they can also reach an enhanced vibrational frequency. While their cutting power isn't as high as Slaughter, they are still mighty."
Cain nodded in agreement with Horteus' words, sensing the power and efficiency of such weapons.
After Horteus finished the demonstration, the Grandmaster sent both Slaughter and the Blood Nails to Cain, who used his Ego Wave to engrave them before they merged into his heart.
Afterward, Cain returned the starry gem to Horteus, which he had used to cultivate for the past two months since he could now train using the Sonic Blade Fusion Technique once again.
"I am very thankful for your exceptional work. I will ensure I use the weapons proficiently."
Cain stood up and performed a slight bow as he uttered those words. He was ecstatic with his new weapon, confident he could deploy even greater battle power henceforth. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire
"It is a fine weapon. I was glad to work on it. If you ever want assistance again, I'm here to help."
Usually, these creatures slumbered deeply. Yet, when aroused, they unleashed widespread destruction, possessing a power that could raze small cities within moments. Naturally, they stayed in the forest's heart, avoiding human settlements to evade the wrath of cultivators, which would spell their doom.
"ROOOOOAAARRR!"
Along with that roar, the Living Volcano's body ignited, setting its surroundings ablaze. One of its stony legs lunged at a diminutive being in the sky. Despite its mammoth size, the King Beast moved with overwhelming speed.
Cain stood firm against the Living Volcano, confidence shining in his eyes. The thought of facing a Late Wave Champion Beast alone would have been inconceivable when he first arrived in Eden, but now he was unfazed, even as a colossal rock leg hurtled toward him.
Slaughter vibrated as Cain struck with all his might. In the next instant, a blast of lightning and flames erupted, setting ablaze everything within a radius of several thousand meters.
Cain's strength and vitality were exceptional for a Wave Champion, further enhanced by the Radiance of Life and Radiance of Strength, which increased both by a factor of four! Yet, the momentum and weight behind the Living Volcano's leg were comparable to a small nuclear weapon, leading to a stalemate in their clash.
"¡BOOM!"
The impact sent Cain flying hundreds of meters, leaving a metallic taste in his mouth. However, he couldn't afford to dwell on it as the Late King Beast was unscathed by the blast due to its massive frame and lunged toward him again.
Cain's eyes widened at the sight of another rock leg hurtling at him at hypersonic speed with the weight of several hundred tons. Despite being taken aback by the King Beast's might, he was undaunted. His body was more than powerful enough to withstand the strike.
"BOOOOOM!"
Another explosion reverberated across the Cicada Forest, accompanied by the sound of metal clashing against rock.
Cain's body could endure the strike, but that didn't mean he would simply accept it when he had the means to counter it. That was precisely what the Blood Nails were for.@@@@
