Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Soul Manifestation…

This is a skill that only those Soul-Forged Items can create. Furthermore, even if only Soul-Forged Items are capable of doing this, it doesn\'t mean that all of them were able to get this ability! It will only appear to those at the peak of Soul-Forged items!

\'I wonder how Magnus would fight this…\' Vincent mused as he saw the familiar ghost-like figure of his grandfather…

This is the same ethereal being that fought against the Xonid creature or whatever alien-like being it was that came out of the Sleeping Chamber.

The audience who had seen this ghostly figure were obviously shocked.

"W-what\'s that?! Is it similar to the Mythical Beast\'s Projection? But I can\'t feel that suppressive beastly aura though…"

"It can\'t be—Is that a Soul Manifestation?!"

"What? That skill is true? I thought it was only some legend."

"Tsk… It\'s real… You just won\'t get a chance to see them often…"

"That\'s true… At least I saw them now unlike those two on the stage. They probably won\'t see it ever."

"What? They\'re blind! Do you expect them to see it? They can feel it nonetheless…"

"But… Does it mean that Vincent hadn\'t shown his real strength when he fought against Elena and Alexander?"

The crowd couldn\'t help but be amazed at the sight of this unusual weapon skill. They could not feel any form of Mana Fluctuations coming from it but it was brimming with energy.

They weren\'t sure whether this was Aura or Soul Energy itself.

Nevertheless, this energy is abundant almost filling the whole arena!

Some others also noticed that Vincent\'s staff started having some visible cracks as they realized that the Soul Manifestation is actually causing a huge burden on the Soul-Forged Weapon.

Magnus didn\'t stand idly after realizing that Vincent just used a powerful technique…

Just like what Vincent guessed, Magnus already realized that he possesses a Mana Art that is capable of extracting his target\'s mana after fulfilling some conditions. This is an ability that he couldn\'t ignore.

After all, his defenses rely mostly on his mana. He doesn\'t have a good physique or even Legendary Rank Items that could protect his body.

What he could only use was his stable mana and complicated Mana Arts.

"Let\'s see who\'s stronger then…" He said filled with excitement. Although Magnus can\'t see Vincent, he can tell his location as he activated his Formation Art.

The white gloves that he has suddenly glowed red. A powerful burst of mana was coming from it and everyone felt threatened by the sight of it. It was as if Magnus was about to attack everyone instead of just Vincent!

Whom~

Before Raizen\'s ghostly figure reach Magnus, the dust that Magnus secretly scattered activated!

The atmosphere on the stage suddenly seems dark.

This is the Formation Art that Magnus created meant to stop Vincent from using his touchless Mana Drain… The surrounding mana became very firm and difficult to control. In short, using any type of Mana Arts became incredibly difficult to do so!

The ghostly figure of Raizen did not stop! It is not made of mana after all. A ghostly staff appeared in Raizen\'s hand as it was slammed at Magnus\' spot!

Boom!

Magnus met the strike head-on!

"Oh? You stopped it?" Vincent was surprised to see how the attack was easily blocked by Magnus\' hand.

"I stopped the Mythical Beast\'s Projection with this hand. Do you think this mere human projection can injure me?"

Magnus replied arrogantly. No wonder he didn\'t mind the appearance of the Soul Manifestation!

The crowd couldn\'t help but feel amazed as they looked at Magnus\' right hand\'s glove.

The left hand was used to activate the Formation Art while this right hand was used to defend himself.

If these gloves weren\'t Legendary Items, they must be at the peak of Pseudo-Legendary!

Vincent didn\'t reply as the image of his Grandfather has not disappeared yet. As long as he has Pseudo-Celestial Energy that he could use to supply the projection, it could continue attacking!

"Let\'s see how long your defenses would last then…" Vincent said with a smile.

The Formation Art that made the surrounding mana firm doesn\'t just affect him. It also affected Magnus! In short, Vincent actually feels like Magnus had disabled himself more than he disabled him!

He only knows a few Tier 1 Mana Arts while Magnus is relying on his Fusion Arts and other complicated techniques.

Well, Magnus doesn\'t seem to be aware of his incapacity to create Elemental Mana Art so it was understandable.

With that in mind, Vincent felt more confident defeating Magnus since he will only rely on his Magic Tools. In terms of Magic Tools, Vincent knows that he should have betters weapons than him!

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The soul projection continued attacking as Magnus continued defending himself. He was very careful while doing this as it seems that only his gloves were capable of stopping the soul projection\'s attacks.

A strike to the head was blocked by his palm and another strike to his waist was simply swatted away by his hands.

This shows how tough those white gloves are! He doesn\'t even seem like a blind person at this rate.

"Hmph! I thought this soul projection would be stronger… I guess I expected too much." Magnus said as if he was dismayed by the Soul Manifestation. Anyway, he isn\'t just going to defend himself, as he decided to counterattack…

The mask he was wearing suddenly emitted a blue light as Raizen\'s ghostly figure slowed down on his attacks…

Magnus wanted to destroy the Soul Manifestation with another move but something unexpected happened, the ghostly figure scattered into many parts before reforming behind him!

This time, it was no longer holding any weapon and struck his body with his palm!

Magnus raised his hand as well to meet the soul projection\'s palm strike!

He was confident that he would not be injured at all but to his surprise, as soon as their attacks met, his flesh and bones felt a strong vibration disrupting his internal organs!

It was completely different from what he had expected as he almost canceled the Formation Art that he activated.

He tried to stabilize himself but Vincent did not allow that! He finally made his move as he charged in Magnus\' direction!

Magnus noticed this but he didn\'t panic.

"Good! Let me show the real strength of my Formation Art…"
