A low explosion sound sounded as one of Kayden’s beams completely swallowed the other beam. It felt like one snake swallowing another, and he didn’t even have to sweat for it to happen. It was ridiculously easy.
**Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!* *
Four lightning strikes fell in sequence, with only a few seconds apart. Kayden again swallowed them with his attacks easily, without any difficulty. He didn’t even need to use mana conversion.
In less than a minute, he crushed five lightning bolts like they were nothing. The environment around him was completely normal, not even a single inch suffered any damage. The strength of the lightning was immense and could make space tremble slightly, but as Kayden destroyed any force that came at him instantly, the lightning was not able to propagate its damage. But at that moment, things started to get serious.
Kayden has set up his domain and all its barriers. He had accumulated great defensive spells over the years, from attrition spells to mana nullification spells. Most were ineffective alone and would not be able to hold off a single attack from the fifth kingdom in equal forces. But this was where the ideal situation was: Kayden was able to pile them by the dozens into his domain.
** BOOOOM!* *
The sixth ray fell with ridiculous force. The space shook a little around Kayden, but nothing major. Since he was just a six-ray mage trying to advance to the sixth realm, the challenge wasn’t that heavy. Kayden launched a lightning attack of the same intensity. Since he wasn’t giving his all in this attack, the lightning from the heavens was only slightly delayed. The attack hit his domain and a fight began to overtake him.
The expanded mana reduced the strength of the lightning by a few times. All spells in Kayden’s domain were made solely of divine mana. Kayden couldn’t pull divine mana at any time for this; the solution he found was to walk with divine mana compacted around him.
This practically made it a sign of giant divine mana in other people’s spiritual sense, but it didn’t matter much either. He just needed a simple spell so he could mask it. The wear bubbles were constantly rotating in Kayden’s domain, making his defense even more robust. The sixth beam opened its way, destroying everything with ridiculous force, but it was unable to reach even 100 meters from Kayden.
The girls were looking at Kayden the same way they looked at a monster in sheep’s clothing. The sixth ray was very difficult for them, but Kayden didn’t even lift a finger from his hand.
The seventh ray was preparing to come. The clouds parted, revealing the same landscape as when Kayden first got seven rays. It was an insanely heavy environment on the conscience of everyone who saw it.
Kayden was given a few minutes to recover. He quickly remade all of his defensive spells that had been destroyed in the meantime. Mana was abundant because of the challenge, and the opening of the clouds caused something to change in the environment.
The amount of divine mana increased by dozens of times. The heavens were constantly releasing a frightening amount of divine mana. Kayden laughed when he saw this happening.
"Come to me." With his orders, the environment was almost empty of mana. Practically everything was around Kayden. This was not an amount of mana that a fifth-realm mage should be able to handle.
For about 10 meters around Kayden, the divine mana became liquid because of its density. It was a completely frightening sight to see a fifth-realm wizard manipulating. A circle was made with all this divine mana.
The circle was perfectly symmetrical and golden. Not even a hint of divine mana came out of the circle, but its aura was frightening. The seventh ray fell against Kayden at the same time he cast his spell.
The clash between the two attacks shattered all the surrounding space. Several cracks appeared, and a black void behind these cracks seemed to hide an entire world within its curves. The strange man from the cracks was unable to begin entering the world, as the remnants of the clash of the two lightning bolts were pushing everything aside. In the skies, an intense battle between two electric dragons was unfolding.
It was obvious to Kayden that he was going to lose, but not without taking away most of the strength of the seventh ray. It took about a minute for his attack to be completely consumed and the attack continued to descend towards him.
** BOOOM!* *
The beam hit several protective barriers and Kayden’s expanded mana. The attack destroyed several things as if they were just butter, but there was always one more behind, and they were always fulfilling their objective of wearing down the lightning. Kayden saw it approaching him a few meters per second. Before long, he was less than a meter away from Kayden. The boy didn’t even blink as he stood there waiting; his confidence was absolute.
The lightning stopped at the tip of his clothes and didn’t even cause a small shock. It was destroyed without any major difficulty for Kayden. This was completely impressive considering he was facing a seventh lightning bolt.
The heavens poured a ridiculous amount of mana onto Kayden. It was obvious from his smile that he was ready to face the next bolt of lightning. Divine mana began to flood the entire environment, and Kayden rebuilt his defenses. This time, he had a good amount of rest, although he didn’t know exactly how much. He took advantage of every second to fortify his domains. At this moment, the heavens began to thunder with loud sounds.
Something scary was coming toward Kayden. He just watched as a sort of man-made of golden lightning appeared floating in the skies and stared at him. The figure raised its hand, and a golden beam appeared above it.
"Your existence is no longer necessary," said the figure. All two thousand kilometers of Kayden’s spiritual sense flickered for a millisecond and then dissolved into pure mana. It was an immense and frightening amount. Julian and the three girls stared at Kayden without knowing how to react. Shock? It was too light to describe the situation. Surprise? It was much more than that. In the end, only two emotions could be attributed to the situation:
Fear.
Admiration.
The man came at Kayden at high speed. His control was absurdly bizarre. Not even a small bit of mana escaped its clutches. Kayden’s surroundings turned slightly blue because of the amount of mana. He began to prepare one of the strongest attacks of his existence with all this normal and divine mana. It wasn’t like the tournament where he got everything in divine mana, but it would still be terrifyingly strong.

The circle was a mixture of blue and intense gold, the two colors rotating incessantly. The pressure from the circle caused the space to tremble slightly. This spell carried an insanely heavy and deadly aura. The figure made of lightning raised its hand, and the lightning above it trembled slightly. The movement of his arm descending seemed to have taken an eternity in everyone’s eyes, but it was almost instantaneous.
**Crash! Crash! Crash!* *
The sound of space breaking as if it were made of glass was frightening. Fortunately, the heavens held back any beings from the rifts and their mana. Kayden launched his attack as well, and once again...
**Crash! Crash!* *
