Chapter 279 - Valiant! Powerful!Terrifying!
Chapter 279 - Valiant! Powerful!Terrifying!
A stupendous sight was playing itself out in the First Realm of Hell as an immensely large golden sword pierced through the skies and struck the cornered body of the Infernal Aberration once more.
BOOM!
World shaking rumblings ensued as yet another grave injury was dealt to the Aberration, its mind registering waves of pain as it looked at the beings surrounding it in immense fury.
Even more attacks rained down from the bodies of the Void Rank Leaders from various powers that were currently serving as incarnations of a Celestial, injuring its body even more as the will of the Infernal began wavering.
It felt such a large amount of pain that even its strong body could no longer continue to withstand it, and its thoughts unwillingly went to a phase of planning it did not want to carry out yet as its eyes were still lingering on the body of the brilliantly glowing being with white wings.
It breathed calmly as something clicked inside its body, essence being moved to the correct places as like a door being unlocked by a key, its realm went above the Void Rank so that it could escape from this hellish situation through ascending to the Second Realm of Hell!
"What!"
"Stop it!"
Vigorous words were heard from the surrounding as they felt the changes and tried to move rapidly, not wanting to let this Infernal Aberration slip out of their fingers like this. They were dismayed as none of their attacks would be fast enough to disrupt the essence of a being that was making a breakthrough.
This breakthrough would be finished in less than a millisecond, and the moment it did this Infernal would begin the process of ascension and escape from its certain guaranteed death!
Even Athena looked forth in anger as her wings and essence vibrated rapidly, but even she knew she wouldn’t be fast enough to land an attack that would disrupt a breakthrough of a being such as this.
It was at this moment though, with everyone feeling cheated as the Infernal Aberration was right about to slip from their grasp, a multicolored aurora of light that was even faster than the speed of light pierced the chest of the Infernal and directly disrupted the path of essence that was needed for its breakthrough!
[Sever.]
A barely inaudible whisper just happened to reach the ears of those listening really closely at this moment.
...!
Immense shock and pain entered the mind of the Infernal as it felt the energies of its body suddenly run amok as they exploded in disorder, its eyes, along with the eyes of Athena and all the Void Rank beings in the surroundings turning towards the direction where the multicolored aurora of light came from.
Many wore shocked expressions, with a particular Elder Spacewarp wearing an ecstatic expression as a wild laughter erupted from him.
"Haha! Genius! Genius! You were no wastrel at all!"
The powerful beings quickly processed their shock as they moved to take this opportunity to land attacks on the Infernal that was about to escape but failed, its breakthrough stopped midway as one of the very few things that could stop a being’s breakthrough to the next rank actually struck it!
To bring to a stop someone’s breakthrough, they either had to be hit with an extremely powerful attack that took their attention and disrupted the order of the breakthrough, or the even rare case where the energies of the one performing the breakthrough were brought to a complete disorder through the use of a special attack.
The reason for their shock was that this exact special attack had been the one that brought the essence of the Infernal into disorder, and because they knew the identity of that multicolored aurora of light that pierced through the skies faster than the speed of light to land on the body of the Infernal.
It was power that stemmed from an extremely elusive element that very few would have the genius or capability of tapping into, the extremely mysterious element of Aether!
Ranked among the highest sources of energies in the Universe, attacks created from this element were extremely fast and deadly, most of them exceeding the speed of light. Another factor that made the Aether element so deadly was the fact that it brought with it destructive energies that would immediately cause a disorder of essence dwelling within the bodies of its targets.
In the most opportune time, the attack exceeding the speed of light had erupted from a disciple that was closely watching the battle from the sidelines- it was none other than Crixus!
This was the reason for the shocked looks from the Void Rank beings all around, even the jaw of the Vampyre Prince dropping to the ground as they looked towards Noah as if looking at some sort of incredible genius.
But this was the only way that beings who were able to tap into the power of Aether were known as- monstrous geniuses with such amazing comprehension that would only allow them to grow into powerful figures in the future.
This was why Elder Spacewarp had been ecstatic while he landed even more attacks on the disordered Infernal. It was because his sect now had a monstrous genius that was rarely found across the Prime Worlds!
The body of ’Crixus’ looked dilapidated of energy as he seemed to be breathing heavily, indicating that the single second where he released that aurora of multicolored Aether had taken all of his mana.
The brilliantly glowing Athena had her eyes shine with a mysterious light as she looked at the struggling infernal still hanging on while deadly attacks rained down from all around. She wanted to finally put a stop to it before it regained order of its essence and tried breaking through again. The Infernal Aberration was heavily injured enough that her last attack would be able to completely seal its fate and end this whole ordeal.
"Scatter."
She sent a command to the surrounding Void Rank beings as instantly, the fiery red skies of the First Realm of Hell gained a brilliantly glowing golden hue.
The Leader and Elders of powerful organizations quickly pulled back from the vicinity of the Infernal as they felt a tremendous amount of power coagulating in the area!
[Judgement]
OONG
A simple word escaped Athena’s armored lips as the golden hue that had spread all around quickly materialized into the sharpest rods of spears. A deadly gleam escaped her eyes as she waved her hand down, the numerous spears circling the Infernal raining down and piercing it from every single possible direction.
THUCK! THUCK! THUCK!....
Numerous horrendous sounds continued to resound in the region as for the next few seconds, countless spears skewered the body of the Infernal Aberration until one could not even distinguish one of its body parts from another.
Multiple spears pierced it thoroughly as it was nailed to the ground, with the scene clearing to show a mass of flesh still clinging to life, but this life would soon be wiped away as Athena clenched her fist tightly, causing the numerous spears piercing the body of the Infernal Aberration to shine dangerously as the attack that came from a simple skill called [Judgment] was fully carried out.
BOOM!
A field of golden energies ruptured out with the struggling mass of flesh of the Infernal at the center, blinding people’s eyes as they spread out their senses to see a scene of shattered void that was rapidly reforming.
The Infernal Aberration that had power exceeding the Void Realm, a being that held the qualifications to possibly become a future Infernal Lord, had faced his death in the hands of multiple Void Realm beings, as well as the timely help of a Saint Realm disciple that made the last attacks possible. But, even more of the attention was taken in by the most brilliant fighter in the battle today, the powerful Athena!
The eyes of many of the Void Realm beings turned towards the War Princes as gulps could be heard from a few of them, this witness of powerful attacks shaking them to their core. First was a disciple from the Profound Astral Sect showing his genius as he stopped the escape of the Infernal, then it was this Athena that continued to shock all of them with her immensely powerful attacks that they did not want to be at the ends of. A few words erupted in their minds as they looked at the region where the attack had landed, a region of space itself had shattered and was only now reforming.
Valiant!
Powerful!
Terrifying!
Those were the only words to describe what they were seeing, but their attention was quickly pulled away by a raucous Elder Spacewarp who went towards Crixus with a wide smile on his face.
"Boy, you should have exposed your genius sooner. You’re going to make your father the biggest braggart once he learns of you comprehending the element of Aether."
The face of Crixus looked tired and proud as he looked at the Elder of his sect with a weakened smile, the eyes of Athena and the remaining beings all turning to look at him as well.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
