"..." Aurus was at a loss for words after seeing the upgraded form of what was possibly his hardest hitting skill up to date. Trying to comprehend what just happened, Aurus looked at the center of the hall as dust gradually materialized in the center of the hall before heading towards Aurus' way to be absorbed.
Ding!
'Wave 6 has been cleared.'
'Experience +320'
'2 Genesis Points have been obtained.'
Not minding the notification screen that popped up in front of his field of vision, Aurus tried to remember what happened once the final form was shot out.
He remembered that he shot it out like normal, just like any other Spirit Spear. At the next instant though, the Spirit Spear froze in place, as if it was stuck in time.
And then not long after that, all of the enemies instantly disappeared without a trace as they froze in place as well.
No matter how many times Aurus tried to understand how the upgraded final form worms, he couldn't get how the Spirit Spear that was stuck in place, was able to kill all of the enemies with one hit.
In the end, Aurus let out a sigh and said to himself, "You know what? Why should I bother with this? I'm going to evolve this skill sooner or later anyway." After saying that, the disembodied voice resounded throughout the hall, notifying Aurus of the next wave.
"The seventh wave is starting. Please proceed with caution."
"Eh?" Aurus couldn't help but notice the disembodied voice say another sentence after announcing the next wave. Seeing that the disembodied voice had the heart to warn him of the dangers of the next wave, Aurus didn't hesitate to use [High Spirit Channeling].
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Transforming the other specialized Animas he had that recovered SP into a specialized Anima that recovered SP, Aurus' SP bar that was completely drained of its content thanks to him using the Acceptance form, was gradually being filled at a fast rate as the next wave of enemies materialized.
Whoosh!
In an instant, 64 enemies appeared in the center of the green jade hall, forming a circle of branches that was around five meters in radius. On the edge of this circle were the first type of clones that Aurus encountered. In the inner portion of this circle, the stronger clones that Aurus didn't think were really strong were seen. As for the center though...
In the midst of him recovering his SP, he couldn't help but notice the branch in the center that looked like him but had an aura that felt like it was stronger than him.
Ding!
'[High Spirit Channeling] has leveled up.'
'[High Spirit Channeling] has reached the MAX level.'
'[High Spirit Channeling] has met the necessary requirements and is ready to evolve.'
While staring at the new branch, this notification screen popped up in front of his field of vision, prompting him to ignore the notification screen and move it away and then identify the new branch as he deactivated the [High Spirit Channeling] skill.
Ding!

"..." Aurus was dumbfounded for a bit as he changed half of his specialized Animas to recover SP. He blinked a few times as he couldn't believe what he was seeing. After seeing that this branch was already doing something similar to what Aurus by igniting a silver flame around its body, it seemed that Aurus wasn't hallucinating at all.
"Well shit," Aurus couldn't help but say as he looked at the huge amount of branches he had to currently face. While thinking of his next move, the branches moved first, shooting out 56 walnuts and 7 tridents, totaling to a number of 63 shots that Aurus would have to dodge if he did not want to get injured.
"[Spirit Wind Bolt]!" Without hesitation, Aurus shot out an energy bolt that pierced through 24 walnuts and denied them of their access to colliding with his body. As for the 39 remaining shots, Aurus transformed a floating Anima into a Spirit Spear and used [Spirit Spear: Bargaining] to destroy the shots before it could even get to him.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
With all of the shots destroyed, Aurus was now going to retaliate with his own skill...only to be blocked by the strongest branch out of all the clones he had face.
Whoosh!
The strong branch was basically an upgrade of Aurus, while also being a downgrade on some. Its movement speed was higher than Aurus' movement speed, including its Spell Core, but for the others, it was weaker than Aurus' skills.
Nonetheless, the attack that the really strong clone shot out was a Spirit Wind Bolt that travelled at a high speed.
Looking at the energy bolt that was heading towards his way, Aurus did not hesitate to use his [Gale Hover] spell and dodge the bolt as he headed towards the center of the clone circle.
Whoosh!
Since the 10 minute cooldown was already gone earlier, with him facing against an enemy that was now somewhat hard to face against, Aurus did not hesitate to use his spell.
As for [Tempest Burst] though...
"Only when I meet an enemy that deserves it do I use it," Aurus muttered to himself as he was now floating above the clones, conjuring an extremely clean magic circle within his Spell Core as he infused more and more SP into it, bringing an aura of intense destruction out and about.
Whoosh! Swoosh!
The sound of a windstorm could be heard through the green jade hall as Aurus aimed the magic spell he was conjuring towards the really strong clone. Not long after, he shot the spell as he said...
"[Spirit Wind Burst]."
Whoosh!
As if the detonation of a bomb occurred within the green jade hall, the spell that was composed of multiple sharp wind energy particles collided with all of the clones' bodies and shredded it to pieces, including the body of the really strong clone as the attack power of the magic spell was incredibly high.
________
[Spirit Wind Burst]
A spell that exerts a higher attack power than [Spirit Wind Ball], it is an attack that damage enemies within a certain radius through the help of overly charged wind energy particles.
SP Cost: 50 SP
________
This spell was the spell he acquired after maxing out the Low Spirit Spell Core skill. Not disappointing his expectations, it did what it had to do, which was kill all of his enemies.
Not long after the death of the 64 clones, the dust that was transformed from the clones' bodies rushed towards Aurus' body, which was absorbed by him as a notification screen appeared in front of his field of vision.
Ding!
'Wave 7 has been cleared.'
'Experience +640'
'3 Genesis Points have been acquired.'
At this moment, Aurus' eyes sparkled after seeing how much Genesis Points he obtained this round.
"Hahaha! My hypothesis was correct! The more types of enemies I fight, the more Genesis Points I obtain!"
Feeling satisfied with his hypothesis being correct, he looked at his status screen and noticed how much unused experience points he had after clearing the seventh wave.
"With this, I might be able to breeze through levels when I evolve to S-grade," Aurus said to himself as the circle of clones materialized below his body as he was floating.
Concurrently, while the materialisation was happening, the disembodied voice started to talk.
"The eighth wave is starting. Please proceed with caution."
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
128 clones. This was the number of clones Aurus had to fight during this wave. Two of which were the really strong clones Aurus fought against last wave.
While looking at the 128 clones under him, Aurus couldn't help but ponder about his next strategy. He could use the forms of the Spirit Spear consecutively, but it would take him a while to truly deal some damage to the clones.
He could also use Spirit magic spells, but two of the three offensive spells were on cooldown, with only one offensive spell being able to casted while the other two were support type magic.
As for the clones, they did not hesitate to shoot their walnuts and tridents towards Aurus' way as 126 shots came to hit Aurus' body.
"You know what?" Since he was going to face 126 shots at once, Aurus made up his mind and casted the only offensive spell he could cast.
"[Spirit Wind Ball]!"
Whoosh!
Bang!
Since he was cornered on all sides by these shots, he used the momentum of the [Spirit Wind Ball] to carve a path out of the bombardment as he hovered with a fast speed to get out of harm's way.
"I knew I should've headed towards the edges of the hall." After experiencing a situation where he was cornered by shots from all sides, Aurus did not want that to happen again as he headed towards an edge of the green jade hall, dodging all of the shots that came after him.
As for the two really strong clones, they were currently sacrificing SP in exchange for power as a silver flame covered their bodies. Looking at this, Aurus transformed one of his floating Animas into a Spirit Spear as he smiled inwardly.
"Let's start the combo all over again."
"[Spirit Spear: Denial]!"
