On the other hand,
Ray guided the bloodline energy through his core as this time, not only was the process easier due to the bloodline pathways that had formed after evolution but he didn't feel any pain as well. Whereas previously, he would always feel a certain amount of pain when guiding the bloodline energy through his body.
"Thump!! Thump!! Thump!!" his mana core thumped as the bloodline energy filled it to the brim. As it did, the mana core pumped the bloodline energy to every single cell of Ray's body as the bloodline transformation started.
"Arghhhhhhh!!!"
As the transformation started, Ray's pupils dilated as his body stiffened. Then, looking at the sky; he screamed at the top of his lungs as he felt the unimaginable pain course through his body. The pain was so intense that all of his previous transformations failed to hold a candle against this.
Slowly, scales spread through his body while his hair took a purplish grey color. His eyes bled as they morphed into slits while two wings tore out of his back.
This time, the wings were different from before as they weren't membranous but feathery while an orange fire with a purplish tinge burned in them.
Other than that, his bones cracked as his body grew in height while his muscles squirmed as they stiffened and hardened as if made of steel. His eyes which were now slits, had a greyish-purple fire burning within them while strange runes appeared all over his skin.
With the energy released by his body producing small void stones that revolved around him, the transformation continued as greyish armor appeared on his body. The breastplate had the figure of a clock inscribed upon it while a lot of the parts were missing from the armor.
As the transformation finished, Ray stood tall, his body now covered in shimmering purple scales. He flexed his wings, testing their strength, and felt the power coursing through his veins.
With him having unlocked more power than before, Ray was sure that he could tackle the person in front of him and hold him back for the time being.
Flapping his wings, Ray turned to the sky and flew in the air as he looked at the burly man from above.
"Sirius, let's start," He called out and controlled the Void Stones revolving around his body and made them form a large whip.
Then, imbuing a bit of his mana into the whip, the whip burned a yellowish-purple fire as he swung the whip in the air.
"Hmmm… Perfect," feeling the whip integrate well with his style, Ray smiled in satisfaction and started his onslaught.
It was the same for Sirius as he, along with his shadow wolves attacked the burly-looking man in front of him. With that, the burly man was left to defend against attacks not only from the ground but from the air as well.
On the other hand,
The rest of the team also battled their opponents as they faced four hooded figures who had superior physical strength but no magical powers to speak of.
"These people are called body cultivators. Although they don't have any magic, their physical strength is enough to crush any one of us to a pulp. Therefore be careful and attack from a distance," Emma lead the team as she spoke.
"Into formation," Elina shouted as she called everyone to get into formation.
The others nodded as they covered each other and got into formation. With Tim acting as the tank, Elina and Kid were the frontline assault while Aliya was the healer, and Emma, Aella, and Noah took care of other things.
Emma used her aura to guide the team through enemy movements and point out any incoming attacks while Aella used her bow and long-ranged attacks to not only disturb the flow of enemy attacks but also cause as much damage as she could.
As for Noah, he was the wild card as not only did he cast small-scaled formations but also used his Spirit Needles to cast Spirit attacks to trick the enemies and play with their minds.
"Tim, can you take on two of them at once? I will attack alongside Kid and try to curse them," Elina said as she glanced at kid and signaled him to start attacking.
Tim merely nodded as he put his shield in front of him and used his system to transform into a gleaming silver giant as he bolted forward and rammed into the two opponents in the middle.
With the element of surprise in their hands, Elina used her mind to cast various curses and inscribed them upon the ice shards produced by Kid.
Nodding to Kid, she signaled him to attack. Kid understood what she meant and hurled the ice shards at the two who were still in shock at the sudden attack by Tim.
On the other hand, the other two invaders understood the matter and moved. They raised their weapons and went on to attack Tim.
Tim noticed their movements but given his limited agility, he could only block one of them. Hence, trusting his teammates; he turned to the person on his right and punched him right in the face.
As for the invader on his left, he swing his weapon at Tim's back. Just as the weapon was about to penetrate Tim's back,
"Swooooshh" An arrow pierced through the air and hit the weapon. Deflecting the attack, the person lost his momentum and tripped.
Given the chance, Tim turned around as he stomped his foot, and kicked the other person.
"Everyone, all-out attack!!" Seeing the chance to attack, Emma shouted at the top of her lungs as the whole team moved and attacked the invaders.
While this happened, Noah used the Spirit Needles and cast the,
[Minor Defense Formation]
With the formation temporarily increasing their defense, the team attacked with even more gusto as the fear of getting injured lessened.
As for the two cursed by Elina, they were still in a confused state as Elina had cursed them with a distortion curse their whole consciousness was distorted for the time being.
Due to this, the two of them were temporarily out of battle. This gave the whole team a chance to concentrate on the two that were left.
Aliya took out the large hammer from her spatial storage and imbued a bit of her mana into it. As she did, spike popped out of the hammer as Aliya unleashed her crazy side and started hitting the invader with all of her strength.
Seeing this, Noah used his Spirit Energy to cast a strengthening formation upon Aliya as her physical traits were enhanced temporarily. Though, it caused her stamina to be depleted easily; she didn't care as all she wanted was to hammer the enemies down to oblivion.
