两男一女的双龙挺进

BANG! Hendrix\'s bulging fist slammed into the wall of the pit, sending a wave of tremors through the structure. The spider cracks expanded more in all directions, and the debris began to fall off, causing mini splashes as they entered the water.

\'I only have 60 second. If not, I\'ll be extremely weakened,\' Hendrix thought with a pale expression on his face as he glanced at the towering pit walls that were now collapsing.

Just then, a huge chunk of rock that seemed to have been cut off from the pit wall plunged down. Hendrix swiftly turned around, causing a mini shockwave beneath the water as he bolted out of the way.

BOOOM!

A wave of water surged up as soon as the large rock made impact with the pit water. The wave rose above the relatively deep crater, causing a series of gasps in the arena.

Because the tournament organizers hadn\'t considered that a massive pit such as this would appear, there were no recording crystals installed in the pit; hence, the audience wasn\'t able to see anything. All they saw was the colossal water rising up and falling back.

The mere sight of the monstrous water made the hearts of the audience beat wildly, especially for the Cromwells. Before the fight had started, they\'d witnessed Hendrix\'s monstrous power, and they couldn\'t imagine just what was happening inside the crater.

BOOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOOOM!

Following the first giant chunk of rock, a cascade of rocks came crashing down as though they were an avalanche. Massive rocks tumbled from the pit walls with thunderous splashes.

Hendrix was caught in the crossfire. While he was maneuvering through the waters, he spotted Nox, who was effortlessly climbing the jagged pit walls. He used the uneven walls to propel himself from one ledge to another, moving with an agility that seemed impossible given the chaotic surroundings.

Hendrix clenched his teeth as his face darkened more and more. Time was ticking by, and Nox was getting away. He was running out of stamina and strength; he needed to finish this fight as fast as he could.

At that moment, Hendrix shot out of the pit and bolted skyward like a supersonic rocket.

BOOOM!

\'T-this skill really enhances all his physical attributes,\' Nox thought as he strained the muscles in his legs and jumped out of the pit, landing just outside. He glanced up just in time to see Hendrix flipping his body mid-air and shooting down like a meteor.

The air around him rippled as Hendrix descended; the heavy gust of wind caused the air to whip against his face. There was a snarl beneath his mask, and his eyes were bloodshot. There were barely 20 seconds left before the overload frenzy came to an end.

\'Faster! I need to be faster!\' Hendrix roared, his fists clenched tightly, veins bulging as he focused all his remaining strength into his descent. The speed at which he plunged also picked up pace; it was as if he was channeling every ounce of his anger into that free fall. The air howled around him, tearing at his skin and making his bloodshot eyes water, but Hendrix didn\'t flinch.

\'I greatly underestimated him. I can\'t believe I\'m struggling against him with all the assistance.\' As he drew closer to the group, about the height of a two- to three-story building, his eyes burned with determination. The only thought echoing in his mind was...

\'I need to be faster!\'

As he saw the falling meteor, Nox, his hair whipping against his face under the stormy sky, remained unmoving from where he was and stared at Hendrix with a fearlessly expression on his face, something that greatly confused everyone. Because of the weight of the situation, they failed to notice the gleaming dagger at the side of Nox\'s arm.

\'Rufus said I just need one powerful attack, right?\' Nox distributed his weight evenly on all sides, his silver light flashing across his eyes as the familiar screen describing the weapon in his grasp materialized:

Item: Oblivion Edge (Legendary Tier)

Description: [A wickedly curved dagger with a dark, reflective blade. It was forged by Rufus Bamboozus as a way to repay his kindness to the Versal of the pantheon of mythical beasts. Forged inside the eternal blue lotus flame, its hilt is adorned with intricate runes, pulsating with ominous energy. The Oblivion Edge inflicts the Eclipse Binding curse, requiring 200 MP to activate, which places the target in a time loop, causing wounds to reopen repeatedly, draining vitality and HP with each cycle. It enhances the wielder\'s agility, allowing for swift strikes in battle, and increases overall damage dealt with each successful hit. 60% chance of critical hit.]

There were eight tiers of magical items: Basic, Intermediate, King, Emperor, Legendary, Ascended, Demi-God, and Sovereign.

Legendary... legendary was just three steps away from being a Sovereign tier. Nox had been so excited when he first read the description of the dagger back in the pantheon of beasts, yet even now he couldn\'t help but display a smile on his face as he saw the description again.

This attack was the reason he had been saving all his mana points! Nox felt a rush of adrenaline coursing through his veins as Hendrix drew closer mid-air.

With Hendrix in free fall, even the crowds outside the mysterious realm held their breaths and watched with wide eyes filled with anticipation.

Nox\'s grip tightened on the hilt of the Oblivion Edge, the dagger\'s aura glowing in response. With a deep breath, Nox channeled his mana into the dagger. A wave of pulsing purple glow transmitted from his veins, lighting up the weapon in his grasp as he activated the latent power of the dagger.

"This... this is the moment of truth."
