The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak
-
chapter-807
Souta was strong enough to contend with Draymond's [Element Drive]. Both of them fought at extreme speed and their energies were bursting in every direction causing destruction to the Mountain of Demise.
Although they were strong, the destroyed land of the mountain would quickly regenerate as if nothing happened. If the Mountain of Demise was so fragile that it couldn't even handle the battle between the Fourth-stage monster and Fourth Shackle expert then it wouldn't be able to contain a god.
Bang! Bang!
Souta spreads the blood thread trying to restrict Draymond's movement but Draymond was too strong. He nimbly avoided the threads and tore the threads that he didn't have a time to avoid.
Sometimes Souta would hide a [Shadow Ball] in a bundle of threads so that it wouldn't get destroyed by shockwaves. Using this, he would teleport everywhere and swiftly attack Draymond in his blind spot. There was a time when Draymond would predict his movement and catch him off guard. Luckily, Souta had super regeneration ability, or else he wouldn't last more than half an hour fighting a Four Shackles Realm expert.Souta compressed the sea of blood into several tiny drops of blood. Each drop contained a vast amount of his best feram and its density was too high.
The drop of blood was powerful. Draymond didn't even want to block it. He just ran around trying to dodge it while shooting energy beams at it. At the same time, he was also calculating Souta's threads, gravity powers, and energy beams. Fighting Souta was hard as he needed to think about every step that he needed to take.
"It's troublesome..."
Souta had various abilities that he needed to take note of. It was like Draymond was fighting several people at the same time. This fucking monster was too versatile and it was his first time experiencing this in a battle. If he wasn't careful he would get caught by Souta now.
Draymond flew in the air as he glanced at the droplets of blood that were chasing him. He was also confirming Souta's location from time to time. He didn't forget that Souta had that annoying teleportation ability.
Souta observed Draymond while controlling several abilities at the same time. He was controlling blood, gravity, and threads while the four spider limbs on his back were shooting [Bestrou].
The [Burning Ring Seal] and [Darkness Hourglass] were floating around him. The two dark-grade artifacts were giving off the power to hold down the powerful Draymond but it could only slow him down.'What are you planning to do? I think that you should end this as soon as possible. In a battle of endurance, you will only lose against him.' Saya said to him.
'I know but it's hard to find an opportunity to end this.' Souta replied to her.
'You can use your remaining equipment skill. With that, your strength will increase again.' Saya said.
'No,' Souta shook his head. He was already using [Possession], [Soul Blood Mode], and the other dark-grade artifacts.
He moved his eyes and thousands of blood threads spread out like a net. It rapidly turned into a ball, enclosing Draymond inside it. But... Draymond vanished without a trace.
The threads captured nothing.
'Careful, Souta!!' Saya's voice was full of concern.
Souta heightened his senses. Draymond just vanished in front of him. The ground started to shake and a hand emerged from the cracks.
Swoosh!
Souta wanted to jump but Draymond managed to wrap his fingers around Souta's feet. He pulled Souta and smashed him on the ground. He then pulled back his fist and threw another punch that contained a vast amount of energy.
[Flaming Northern Strike]!!
Souta crossed both of his arms and directly received the punch. His armor and bones cracked as the blood vessel in his arms exploded. The power behind Draymond's fist was overwhelming.
Ugh!
Souta couldn't directly block it. All of his tough defense broke instantly. Even the gravity field was shattered in just a second. It couldn't even repel the energy from Draymond.
He gritted his teeth and kneed Draymond's stomach. Then, he elbowed Draymond before he got a space to slash his sword.
Swoosh!
Draymond shifted his body to the side but it was too late. A huge cut appeared on his shoulder and his blood sprayed in every direction.
He felt something was wrong but he didn't back down. He stood on his ground and exchanged blows with Souta. In a direct confrontation, Souta was no match for him. He was stronger and faster. He was a better fighter.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Draymond continued to attack Souta with everything that he has got. Souta's armor and muscles were getting shredded apart. The only thing that made him keep up with Draymond was his regenerative ability.
Souta gritted his teeth and thrust the vajra sword. Draymond in exchange threw a devastating blow. Souta raised his other hand to block it.
Bang!
He managed to block it but at the cost of his left arm. His left arm was shredded into tiny pieces. The rings and bracelet on Souta's destroyed left hand flew around. At the same time, the vajra sword pierced through Draymond's shoulder.
"I got you..."
Souta forced a smile on his face.
Draymond widened his eyes. He wanted to step back but it was too late. The blood from Souta's destroyed left hand wrapped around his body. Also, he felt intense pressure coming from the blade that pierced his shoulder and he started hearing all sorts of things.
"Argh! What the hell is this?!"
Draymond gritted his teeth. He felt that something was invading his mind.
Souta loosened his grip on the sword and pressed his palm on Draymond's chest.
"Give me five seconds, Saya."
After saying those words, Souta closed his eyes. The [Yin-Yang Bracelet] started to emit a dark and white light. The energy started building up around it. It swirled strongly like a storm. Light and darkness twisted together, forming a huge pillar that shot toward the crimson net in the sky.
The next second, the twin spirit of light and darkness appeared beside him. The two spirits raised both of their palms and pressed them on Souta's back.
The building of energy was highly concentrated. Everyone within the area of the entire central region felt the intense fluctuations of energy.
It's frightening.
Millions of people that were fighting in the central region stopped for a moment. They looked up at the giant Mountain of Demise and saw a dark and light pillar as if it was supporting heaven and earth. The emperor and various leaders of different organizations that rallied to the central region saw the majestic pillar of two elemental energies.
No matter even if they were enemies or allies, they couldn't help but admire the dark and light pillar for a second. The pillar was in the middle of the redness around the mountain. It was too eye-catching and the energy it was giving off was as vast as an ocean.
Alexander, who was heading towards the mountain, narrowed his eyes and stared at the pillar of two elements.
"This... Souta's energy signature...?"
He muttered to himself. Alexander fought beside Souta in the Multiple Elements Realm so he was familiar with Souta's energy signature.
...
A creature stood at the top of a small hill. The unknown creature stared at the pillar of energy before a creepy smile appeared on its face.
"There's that guy. This is interesting."
The unknown creature said in a deep voice.
Behind it, there were hundreds of corpses scattered all over the area. Their bodies were ripped apart and their blood created a small pool of blood at the foot of the hill.
...
On the other side of the central region, a group of warriors was staring at the same scene. They were the warriors of Athen's Champion that were tasked to investigate the event here in the shadows.
A tall and beautiful woman with long red hair was standing in front of the group. She was the Grain Leader of the Sixth Grain War of the Third Set Pallas Division.
"We need to hurry up! Something is happening in Heaven's Sealing Mountain."
The woman said.
...
After a few seconds, Souta opened both of his eyes. His left eye was pure white and the other one was pitch black.
Draymond finally broke free as he pulled out the vajra sword from his shoulder. He threw it away and noticed the changes in Souta.
"This..."
His heart subconsciously skipped a beat. The instinct that he honed throughout the years was screaming at him. They were telling him to run as fast as he could.
Souta slowly opened his lips.
"[Grand Demolition Space]..."
He said in a soft and cold tone. The [Yin-Yang Bracelet] emitted a dim gray light and the dark and light pillar shrank into a tiny ball of energy in the blink of an eye. The twin spirits behind Souta also vanished.
One small magic circle appeared behind Souta. Then, a second magic circle appeared on top of it. A third and fourth emerged before a dazzling white light erupted.
"T-Tier 4... Spell..."
Draymond's face was filled with shock as the light and darkness swallowed his body.
Arghhh!!
