Chapter 178: Fight for advancing (1)
Due to the Inazuma being unable to control its darkness powers, the aura it was constantly exuding was a dead giveaway of its presence. All he had to was sit down and wait once he arrived.
"You are half right. At first, I was planning on punishing whoever did this, but when I found out it was an angel I changed my plans." The panther had a grin on its face as it continued walking towards Zirrack.
"So you planning on killing so that you can advance?" The Inazuma\'s silence was taken as a yes. "I see…" Zirrack stood up and finally turned to the king-tier beast.
"That makes it 2 of us..." Zirrack said with a crazier smile that made the panther slightly shiver.
The amount of bloodlust it felt from the human was far greater than anything it had seen before, but this was far from being enough to scare him.
Seeing the human being engulfed in darkish-purple flames, arcs of black lightning began appearing all over its body.
It was its own version of lightning reinforcement which was more than a thousand times better than that of Blake.
Not wasting a second, the Inazuma dashed towards Zirrack at a terrifying speed while aiming to decapitate him in one swipe with its ultra-sharp claws.
Crimson barrier!
A thick rock dome engulfed in crimson flames erupted from below, causing the Inazuma who had appeared behind Zirrack to stop in its tracks.
Immediately he sensed the Inazuma within range, Zirrack made the barrier explode sending pieces of rocks that turned to blazing spikes mid-flight.
With its terrifying speed, the Inazuma was able to dodge most of it while shooting down many with lightning.
It ended up being hit by a few, but it ignored the pain and dashed towards Zirrack who was now open.
HISS!
Instantly, the Inazuma appeared beside Zirrack but before it could lay its paw on him, a solid wave of crimson flames erupted from his body sending it falling.
"We can\'t do this all day. Show me your true strength." Zirrack said in a bored tone as he watched the Inazuma get back on its feet.
"I see what you are doing with the flames. I must say it\'s quite smart of you." The Inazuma referred to the small patches of crimson flames still burning on its hide.
Zirrack had darkish purple flames due to his immense bloodlust, but the one he had been using throughout the fight were crimson flames.
The darkish-purple flames were known as hell flames. Unlike soul flames that attacked only one\'s soul, hell flames attacked both causing any sustained injury to be unhealable without special.
The down part of hell flames was that, it wasn\'t as potent as soul flames when it came to attacking the soul neither could it spread like it.
As for the crimson flames, they were ordinary flames with life essence. The addition of life essence made the flames difficult to put out.
After years of fighting beats way faster than him, Zirrack had come up with a way to counter them.
Since he could hardly get his hands on them he had to make sure every attack left a continuous pain that would gradually weaken the fighting capabilities of the enemy.
"Since you are banking on a battle of attrition, I will have to end this quickly." Knowing the plans of its opponent, the Inazuma knew it was time to stop testing the human\'s strength.
Both its eyes and the stripes on its body began glowing as the lightning arcs all over its body were growing length and getting wilder.
On activating its king-tier powers, nature began reacting to it. The air around the Inazuma began ionizing causing lightning arcs to form, the sky had gone dark and the sound of thunder echoed all over the area.
"That\'s more like it!" Zirrack\'s grin returned to his face as the flames on him increased to almost twice the size and in place of his iris and eyebrows were now raging flames.
It was the rage mode!
Zirrack wasn\'t done yet, 2 darkish purple gauntlets with red stripes converging from the base to the knuckles appeared on his arms and so did an armor of similar design appeared on his body.
This was the set of infernal glory.
"Arghh!" In an enraged tone, Zirrack charged at the Inazuma who was stunned for a moment by his stupidity.
Nothing its guard down, the lightning arcs around it began violently crackling as series of lightning bolts strong enough to kill a demigod were continuously fired.
Seeing this, chunks of rock reinforced with solid crimson fire formed a shield in front as he ran forward.
BOOM! BOOM!
The moment he got into range, he made the rock shield explode in order to land another hit, but the lightning devil was more than ready.
Using lightning to take down a lot of spikes and little side steps to dodge the rest, but that was when Zirrack appeared behind it.
"Gotcha!"
The Inazuma tried moving out of the way but emerald crystals were holding it in place and the more force it applied the bigger the crystal grew.
BOOM!
Zirrack\'s gauntlet engulfed in crimson flames slammed into the Inazuma causing the ground beneath them to shatter forming a little crater.
"Arggh!"
Zirrack raised his fist to land another blow, but that was when 3 lightning bolts struck from above.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The area became deathly silent, but a pounding sound continued.
"You are mad!" The Inazuma muffled with fear in its eyes as fists upon fist came crashing on it.
It had summoned the lightning bolt in other to have Zirrack retreat, but he hadn\'t expected he would sacrifice himself just to get more hits on him.
Enough!
The Inazuma roared as it generated a sphere of electricity that sent Zirrack flying.
