Chapter 1058: Enraging
Originally, Lin Rui had no intention of using the information Jerry had found. After all, in Lin Rui’s view, regardless of what Kaecilius had experienced in the past, his current situation was caused by his own actions and had little to do with others.
If there was any connection, it was the direct influence of Dormammu. Kaecilius himself deviating from his original intentions was the most direct reason for his transformation, and no one else could be blamed.
After hearing Lin Rui’s words, Kaecilius’s originally cold gaze suddenly became fierce, and a hint of an almost crazy expression quickly emerged from within his eyes. It seemed that Lin Rui’s mention of the event that happened twelve years ago struck a chord within Kaecilius.
Whoosh!
A powerful aura surged from Kaecilius’s body as he stared intensely at Lin Rui.
“How did you know?! Ancient One would never tell you!” Kaecilius fiercely demanded as he pointed his translucent long blade forward.
“It’s true that the Ancient One and the sorcerers couldn’t have told me, but I still found out. As a Sorcerer, you should know that your actions at that time were wrong. Although I understand your feelings as a father, you cannot expect others to bend the rules and distort reality. And since then, you have changed, resorting to any means for power and ultimately falling into the darkness of Dormammu. So, everything that happened is of your own making!” Lin Rui’s tone became even more confrontational as he disregarded Kaecilius’s gradually grotesque face.
Since he couldn’t defeat him, Lin Rui wanted to delay as much time as possible. The Sanctum was under attack, but it wouldn’t be breached anytime soon. Lin Rui believed that the sorcerers guarding the Sanctum, including Wong, had already sought reinforcements. As long as he could buy more time, Kaecilius would surely fail in his current endeavor.
At this moment, Lin Rui used the information he had obtained about Kaecilius to provoke him. And indeed, these revelations struck a nerve in Kaecilius.
After all, the accidental death of his daughter over a decade ago had inflicted a tremendous blow on him. When the Ancient One refused to use forbidden magic to revive his daughter, Kaecilius descended into darkness.
Swish!
In the instant Lin Rui finished speaking these words, Kaecilius, with his eyes now red, lunged towards him. Clearly, under Lin Rui’s relentless pressure, Kaecilius was on the verge of losing his sanity.
“Are you afraid?!!” Lin Rui exclaimed without reserve, seeing that Kaecilius had abandoned using magic and opted for close combat.
Whoosh!
Following suit, Lin Rui tightly grasped the Beheading Spirit Sword and charged at Kaecilius.
Clang!~
The next moment, Lin Rui’s Beheading Spirit Sword collided with Kaecilius’s translucent long blade. With a momentary respite, Lin Rui had already recovered somewhat. As a result, he wasn’t directly sent flying this time but stood face-to-face with Kaecilius in a standoff.
Crackle, crackle, crackle~
Lin Rui blocked Kaecilius’s translucent long blade with his own sword, and they faced each other at close range.
At this moment, both Lin Rui and Kaecilius could see the hidden eyes under each other’s hoods. Lin Rui remained calm, while Kaecilius seethed with anger and madness.
“What rules? How much have we sorcerers sacrificed to protect the Earth? Why can’t we receive more in return? I just wanted to save my daughter! Is that wrong?!” Kaecilius lowly questioned, staring fixedly at the remarkably young man in front of him.
Whoosh!
As he questioned Kaecilius, a nearly transparent long blade quietly appeared in his left hand. It swiftly stabbed toward Lin Rui’s waist, while Lin Rui only had his Beheading Spirit Sword.
Bang!
Just as Kaecilius’s left blade was about to strike Lin Rui’s abdomen, Lin Rui’s left hand appeared right there. And at that moment, Lin Rui’s previously empty left hand inexplicably held a long sword that closely resembled the Beheading Spirit Sword. It was this sword that blocked Kaecilius’s attack.
“Hmph! I was already prepared for you!” Lin Rui shouted, having successfully blocked Kaecilius’s surprise attack.
Pū!
Seemingly surprised that Lin Rui could react so quickly and conjure a sword out of thin air, Kaecilius was momentarily stunned. And in that moment of hesitation, Lin Rui swiftly lifted his foot and kicked him in the chest. Kaecilius, who took Lin Rui’s kick, stumbled back a few steps in a somewhat disheveled manner, while Lin Rui relentlessly pursued.
Since Kaecilius had been provoked and had resorted to close combat against him, Lin Rui wouldn’t miss such an opportunity. After all, Lin Rui’s body had undergone numerous enhancements, and his reaction speed and agility were significant advantages. In close combat, Lin Rui believed he wouldn’t be weaker than Kaecilius.
After all, even for battle sorcerers, they needed to unleash their full power through magic. And now, Lin Rui had to rely on his fast-paced strikes to prevent the opponent from having time to cast spells.
Swish, swish, swish!
Lin Rui charged forward and unleashed several consecutive sword strikes against Kaecilius. Although Lin Rui hadn’t practiced dual-wielding before, the power he displayed at this moment was by no means weak.
Caught off guard by Lin Rui’s formidable melee skills, Kaecilius momentarily found himself in a state of confusion. However, he was still a formidable opponent, and he managed to block Lin Rui’s attacks with his dual blades.
“Hmph! If you want to break the rules, you could have chosen a different path. But instead, you chose to fall into darkness. And after falling into darkness, did you save your daughter?!” Lin Rui taunted, launching rapid attacks against Kaecilius while verbally striking him as well.
“Ah! You will die here!!” Upon hearing Lin Rui’s words, Kaecilius was completely enraged and let out a furious roar.
Boom!
Just as Lin Rui took advantage of Kaecilius’s furious roar and lunged forward to strike him in the chest, a surge of darkness, completely out of sync with this world, burst forth from Kaecilius’s body.
The Beheading Spirit Sword, slashing toward Kaecilius’s chest, was blocked by this surge of darkness. Lin Rui then felt an extremely uncomfortable sense of oppression emanating from the Beheading Spirit Sword.
Crackle, crackle, crackle!
Just as Lin Rui quickly reacted, preparing to retract the Beheading Spirit Sword, the sound of the sword breaking came from the tip of the blade!
Bang!
Subsequently, Lin Rui was forcefully propelled backward by a power that appeared out of thin air.
