Heaven, Earth, Me-Chapter 894: Near peak-level battle.
Chapter 894: Near peak-level battle.
Yasenia activated all her auras at once, and the space around her faintly trembled under her strength. Then, while Fu Lang Zu charged at her again after their clash, Yasenia focused on him and activated [Nascent Cosmos Art].
This Body Cultivation Path skill was a set of movements that completed a martial art.
Fu Lang Zu's fist flew straight at her, air exploding and space quaking at his pace. If Yasenia had received this attack before her breakthrough, she would have ended up either heavily injured or dead.
Yet, as the attack approached, the dragoness moved her sword in a horizontal motion and managed to hit it perfectly so that it would deviate and miss her.
CLANG!
A metallic sound was heard when [Draconic Heart] and Fu Lang Zu's skin met, and then Yasenia's hair was blown back by the wind pressure generated by his punch.
For an instant, the dragoness's clear and bright golden-colored slit eyes met with Fu Lang Zu's dark and muddy golden-colored eyes.
Two gazes that could appear similar were now incomparable.
One pair of eyes looked like they could pierce through all lies and light the path forward.
The other pair of eyes looked like they could swallow someone into a well of despair with just a look.
Both of them took a step back, creating distance, and clashed again.
BOOM!
The dragoness was naturally overpowered. Her enemy was someone with peak-level Epoch Core strength.
However, even as Fu Lang Zu pushed Yasenia back with each claw strike, the dragoness kept a steady balance and avoided being overwhelmed by the barrage of powerful strikes.
It wasn't long before they shot outside of the hall while exchanging blows.
As they moved, though, the rest of the people followed their trails.
In the sky, their figures looked like two light beams twisting and clashing, parting the clouds as they battled around.
Yasenia's sword glowed with several lights, and she released a barrage of [Sunrise], [Sunset], and [Crescent Moon] attacks.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Fu Lang Zu's reflexes were extremely sharp and well-developed, making it easy to block the barrage of powerful attacks. novelbuddy.cσ๓
Feeling the strength behind each sword strike, the people around were stunned.
Everybody knew that Yasenia broke through not long ago. However, from a simple look, they realized that her strength was in the high-level Epoch Core realm. How far in? Not many could tell as this was the absolute peak of the continent.
Only by experiencing a level could one properly estimate at which point one person's strength was at that level. Of course, this didn't take away people's ability to make wild guesses.
'His strength is ridiculous.'
BANG!
The strength of Fu Lang Zu's claw slammed onto her sword like a meteor, sending her flying backward. 'Forget about mountain destroying strength. His punches can probably flatten a mountain range. They feel like meteors each time they impact me.'
Fu Lang Zu's body suddenly disappeared and reappeared behind Yasenia. The dragoness's face changed as she couldn't properly react. So, in an attempt to minimize the impact, her tail moved with a flash of light and clashed with his attack.
BOOM!
The dragoness's body shook as the powerful strike landed on her, transforming her into a shooting star that smashed into a mountain several kilometers in the distance.
Everyone looked over with surprised expressions while the people allied with Fu Lang Zu cheered. Even when Fu Lang Zu was strange, they all shared a common hatred toward Yasenia, created by clear propaganda and other ways of spreading ideals.
They wanted to cheer, yet the entire mountain exploded again, leaving people curious for a second until the shockwave created by Yasenia's dragon roar reached.
ROAR!
The dust was blown apart, revealing a mostly uninjured Yasenia with her body creating a spiral pillar of blue light.
[Celestial Dragon Body] enveloped her entire being, making her already horrifying aura even more terrible.
After breaking through, all her Celestial skills had done a qualitative leap. Thanks to the dragoness's increasingly high understanding of Celestial Energy and her better control over the Celestial Energy Star, all her Celestial skills were not only much more manageable to use, but they also didn't completely saturate her body.
So, after [Celestial Dragon Body] enveloped her being, the dragoness's aura made another explosive blast that sunk the crater she was in.
"[Celestial Dragon Body] and [Celestial Assimilation]. Let's see how strong you are, Fu Lang Zu."
The dragoness lifted her right leg and then stomped down without holding back a single bit.
BOOM!
The instant her foot impacted the ground, it was as if a giant press had fallen from the sky, sinking the floor below Yasenia for several meters.
With such impulse and using her charge and movement skills, the dragoness's body transformed into a ray of light as she crossed a distance of several kilometers in less than a second.
Carrying a momentum that made space tremble, Yasenia swung her sword while using [Empyrean Sun Collapse].
A golden Sun manifested above the earth as the temperature several kilometers around Yasenia increased to horrifying levels.
Fu Lang Zu's muddy eyes only reflected light as the enormous Sun fell on him with land-deforming strength.
White light inundated everything, and an explosion deafened everything and devoured the surroundings.
This time, Fu Lang Zu's body shot across the sky and impacting into a mountain several kilometers away.
With [Celestial Assimilation] active, Yasenia didn't need to wait between skill activations at all, so the moment her attack landed, [Pegasus Gallop] activated, accelerating her from motionless to her maximum speed in an instant.
This created another Stella that followed Fu Lang Zu's path closely.
Using her spiritual sense to see through the dust explosion, Yasenia accurately descended from the sky as silver radiance illuminated her body. "[Draconic Midnight: Falling Sky]."
More literal than ever, the sky transformed into a beautiful night filled with stars that soon after manifesting fell as if the strings had been detached and sped down, quicker than even Yasenia herself and catching up to her.
Instead of falling stars, they looked like white beams because of their speed.
Then, the World shook as Midnight impacted.
BOOOOOOM!!!!
The cheering people from Fu Lang Zu's camp were pale-faced, looking at the terrifying dragoness summon one Celestial Body after another to rain pure and unadulterated destruction on Fu Lang Zu.
The girls, looking from a distance, gazed upon the dragoness's fully unleashed strength for the first time with wide-opened mouths.
Andrea muttered. "What in Heaven's name is that destructive power? She has become a literal natural disaster in the shape of a dragon woman."
Tatyana blinked. "Well, I must admit, even I underestimated her. Oh, look, [Empyrean Galaxy Domain]."
Evelyn's mouth twitched. "No need to say look. I think it is harder to miss it than looking at it."
The entire sky, several tens of kilometers across, completely changed, revealing a titanic Sun, Moon, and Galaxy of stars.
Kali blinked and asked. "Where are they, even? I can feel the landquakes, but I can't spot them."
Cecile uttered one word while pointing at a place. "Underground."
BOOM!
The earth surged upward together with an explosion, and from it, Yasenia and Fu Lang Zu appeared, exchanging blows constantly and shifting through the sky while creating massive shockwaves.
Angel looked at the terrifying ongoing combat and gazed at Tatyana. "Um. Mommy Tatyana, are you sure you can intervene if it gets dangerous?"
Tatyana blinked twice and opened her mouth, only to close it again. She scratched her cheek and commented. "To be fair… Perhaps? Strength-wise, Fu Lang Zu is clearly superior; however, Yasenia is showing much more resilience than I thought. So, a one-shot, one-kill happening is extremely difficult, which will give me enough time to intervene."
Evelyn asked. "Resilience?"
Tatyana pointed at them. "Look, Little Treasure made a mistake. She will receive a counterattack from Fu Lang Zu soon unless he is retarded."
As Tatyana predicted, Fu Lang Zu managed to release a combination of strikes, finally blasting both the tail and sword away and leaving a clear opening. Yasenia's face continued cold and calculating as she saw Fu Lang Zu's claw approaching her stomach while enveloped in a disgustingly thick Heart Demon aura.
The strength behind the attack was enough to see faint black cracks in space, showing how terrifying it truly was.
'[Full Moon] won't make it in time since it surges out from my sword. I guess I will need to use the new skill I unlocked from the Body Path Cultivation Manual when entering the fifth realm.'
Her voice, imposing as the will of the universe, echoed around in a melodic yet overbearing tone. "[Celestial Cosmos Nebula]."
In an instant, several stars orbiting around her exploded, creating a colorful and mesmerizing gas around her entire body.
As if it were alive, when Fu Lang Zu's claw approached, the gas coiled around the attack and then solidified.
BOOM!
The impact, as heavy as a meteor, forcefully made Yasenia spit saliva and widen her eyes as her body curved. The horrifying strength behind the strike forced her body to shoot down like a meteor, cratering again into the ground.
Fu Lang Zu stopped in the air, looking like a mindless beast with a tilting head toward the crater. He, or whatever was controlling his thoughts, was quite sure that this attack would be powerful enough to incapacitate Yasenia.
So, instead of rushing down, he began charging one of the few long-distance attacks he knew. "[Steel Wolf Poryection]."
A voice that mixed his own charming and smooth voice with one that was similar to someone scratching a board with their nails echoed.
Above him, the image of a wolf that could swallow mountains with one bite manifested, his black fur and golden eyes looking down on the world with arrogance and majesty.
Then, this wolf began descending, ready to devour the place Yasenia landed as its howled spread for hundreds of kilometers.
HOWL!
However, to Fu Lang Zu's surprise, another powerful source of energy appeared below him.
"[Celestial Dragon Breath]!"
WHOOOM!
A beam of pure energy pierced the dust cloud, lighting the darkened surroundings with its empyrean light.
BOOM!
The sky was illuminated as both attacks clashed into an annihilating detonation, a roaring sound reverberating across the world.
Yasenia floated from the dust cloud after the explosion subsided, her mouth dripping with blood and her dress having been torn apart on her stomach area, revealing mangled flesh that had been ripped apart.
On the wound, the nasty remains of the Heart Demon's aura remained, trying to penetrate deep into Yasenia. However, the dragoness snorted once, releasing her soul's aura, and like a wave of purifying light, everything that had been touched by the Heart Demons in the surroundings evaporated. "These weak Heart Demons can do nothing to me. Don't bother."
Fu Lang Zu tilted his head, not understanding why the creature he thought would be half-dead was standing with just a flesh wound.
The dragoness sighed, looking at her hand. "Well, I admit it. I am still not strong enough to fight peak-level Epoch Cores. Without the use of the Celestial defensive skill, I would probably have been defeated. Even if I force myself, the injuries I created in your body are quite… laughable."
The dragoness chuckled. "Well, I am done testing my strength. Slaughter everyone. Today, the Fu clan disappears from the map."
Behind Yasenia, the auras of everyone who came with her burst at once, making the world tremble under their unfathomable might.
