Chapter 331: The World of Water and Fire, Ancient Beasts, and True Forms of Domains (II)
Though composed of water, these spinning pillars emitted a sharp aura, rushing toward the Thunder Beast and the Silver Dragon at incredible speed.
Roar! Roar!
The Silver Dragon roared, its mouth opening wide, and a beam of white icy breath shot through the air, striking one of the pillars with a boom.
Crack! Crack!
Under the dragon’s icy breath, the surface of the water pillar continuously froze and exploded, scattering countless ice shards, but the pillar still moved closer.
The seawater was endless; unless the Silver Dragon could instantly freeze and completely shatter the pillars, they would continue to churn for as long as they were maintained by the Tiger Serpent’s power.
Whoosh!
The Silver Dragon spread its wings and weaved through the pillars. This time, its breath fell below them, and a thick layer of ice several dozen meters thick appeared on the sea's surface, freezing large swathes of water.
As the water source below froze, the pillars chasing the Silver Dragon collapsed one by one, turning into countless water droplets that pounded onto the ice’s surface.
While the Silver Dragon froze the ocean, the Thunder Beast also faced more than a dozen incoming water pillars. Its mouth opened wide, and the fins on its back began to glow one by one.
This time, the Thunderbolt didn’t form a ring, but fused with the Golden Flames and green Toxin. An ominous aura began to spread.
Long-range attacks, I can do that too.
The Tiger Serpent could sense the destructive aura emanating from the Thunder Beast’s mouth. It showed a look of surprise and instinctively tried to dodge. However...
Boom!
The water behind it exploded as the retracted Flame and Frost domains expanded again, clashing fiercely with the blue domain.
Simultaneously, nine ferocious dragon heads roared, as the three heads with black horns tore through the blue domain and bit down on the Tiger Serpent’s tail, back, and hind legs.
With the Tiger Serpent’s focus on the Thunder Beast, the sudden ambush had caught it off guard. Particularly shocking was that those three heads were able to pierce through its innate Heavy Water Domain.
Roar!
Furious and startled, the Tiger Serpent turned its head, black-and-blue power shimmering on its massive right claw. It smashed through the heavy water, distorting space, and landed heavily on one of the black dragon heads.
Boom!
Under the level 9 colossal beast’s strike, the head exploded. Apart from the two heads still biting the Tiger Serpent, the other six howled in agony.
At that same moment, a gold-and-blue beam roared out from the Thunder Beast’s mouth, exuding a world-destroying aura.
The ever-expanding breath pierced through the water pillars, which collapsed under the scorching destructive force, turning into countless droplets of seawater. In just a split second, the now several-meters-thick beam struck the blue domain.
Boom!
The energy impact created blue shockwaves, and engulfed the Tiger Serpent in the explosion as it let out a ferocious roar that echoed through the micro-world.
Boom!
Under the destructive breath, a Tiger Serpent made of blue energy continued to expand. In the blink of an eye, the construct grew hundreds of meters wide and over a hundred meters at the shoulder. The invisible explosive force directly sent the nine-headed serpent flying.
Inside the nearly tangible blue Tiger Serpent, large patches of scales on its main body were shattered, and there was a ferocious and cruel look in its eyes.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The colossal Tiger Serpent, now hundreds of meters long, charged at the Thunder Beast, braving the Thunder Fiery breath. Waves of energy explosions surrounded it, making its charge appear incredibly domineering.
At that moment, the Thunder Beast slightly tilted its head. Instantly, the gold-blue beam of destruction shot toward a distant reef.
Boom!
The hundred-meter-wide reef, rising dozens of meters above the water, exploded under the golden flame breath, as molten lava sprayed in all directions. Seeing this, the fire in the Thunder Beast's mouth extinguished, and it coldly eyed the approaching colossal blue beast.
It was clear now that it wasn't the power of its three-ability-fused breath that was ineffective; rather, the blue "true form" had absolute defense against energy attacks.
You want to challenge me in close combat?
Roar!
With a ferocious roar, the flames and lightning on the Thunder Beast's body retracted. Its sinister body was covered by a layer of black power, with dark red light swirling on its surface.
The top-level Defense and top-level Strength, fully unleashed, caused waves of power that distorted the surrounding space and blurred its form.
Boom!
The fifty-meter-tall sinister beast collided with the colossal blue Tiger Serpent. The destructive impact shook the entire island and generated a hurricane-force wind, stripping away a layer of the ground and sweeping across a kilometer.
Despite being larger, the blue beast took a step back, unable to match the unstoppable strength of the Thunder Beast. This infuriated the Tiger Serpent.
Boom!
A massive claw shattered the Thunder Beast’s afterimage, hitting the ground and causing the land within hundreds of meters to collapse and explode.
The Thunder Beast, having dodged the Tiger Serpent's claw, instantly appeared at its side. A claw imbued with the power of a golden sun struck its abdomen.
Boom!
With power a hundred times stronger and the energy of the highly compressed Golden Flames, half of the blue Tiger Serpent's body collapsed and exploded. The domineering force caused the Tiger Serpent to roar in shock and fury.
Boom!
A tail over two hundred meters long pierced through the air and appeared behind the Thunder Beast, hitting it with enough of an impact to send it flying over a kilometer.
Boom!
A hundred-meter-high hillside collapsed, and countless rocks exploded.
In that same instant, the blue Tiger Serpent squirmed as the shattered side of its body instantly regenerated, though its internal aura seemed somewhat weakened.
The collapsed hillside in the distance exploded, followed by the enraged roar of the blue Tiger Serpent. The colossal blue beast was again shattered by the Thunder Beast as it suddenly appeared again.
As the two titanic colossal beasts clashed at close quarters, waves of destructive shockwaves continuously erupted, causing the ground to collapse and hillsides to crumble wherever they passed.
Despite their massive sizes, both beasts moved at unbelievable speeds, with claws swiping, tails sweeping, and roars creating sonic booms.
The Thunder Beast, in particular, seemed to move almost instantaneously with each explosive burst, capable of performing consecutive rapid movements. This incredible combat prowess even suppressed the blue Tiger Serpent, despite it being ten times larger.
While the two colossal beasts fiercely fought, the Silver Dragon finished freezing the surrounding seawater. It floated weakly in the air, its wings slightly drooping as it heavily panted. Freezing such a large area of the sea to limit the Tiger Serpent's water control had been quite taxing for it.
Crack! Boom!
The several-meter-thick ice shattered, revealing the eight remaining heads of the Nine-headed Serpent. Watching the distant chaotic battle, it growled lowly. Roar! Roar! Roar! Ao Ba is so strong.
Roar! Indeed, very strong. The Silver Dragon's eyes showed a complex expression as it watched the battle. When it first encountered the Thunder Beast, their fight had ended in a draw, with neither side gaining the upper hand.
Within just a month or two, however, this creature had grown to the point where it could directly suppress a level 9 colossal beast, its overwhelming power clashing head-on with the true form of the domain without faltering.
As a descendant of mythical colossal beasts, the Silver Dragon had seen such abilities before.
Integrating all of a colossal beast’s abilities into its domain would create a true form, wielding pure, world-destroying power with every move. As long as the beast had bloodline power remaining, this domain's true form wouldn’t perish, making it a particularly troublesome ability.
With this in mind, the Silver Dragon growled. Roar! Ghidorah, we must help Batian to restrict that guy. If we can restrain it for just an instant, without giving it time to recover, Batian's explosive power will be enough to kill it.
Roar! Roar! Roar! No, problem, how, cooperate?
Roar! Wait for the right moment, then unleash your breath attack with all your might to assist me in sealing it.
Roar! Roar! Roar! No, problem.
Roar!
With a high-pitched roar, the Silver Dragon spread its wings wide. Instantly, the ice-covered sea around it began to tremble violently.
Simultaneously, brilliant light shone from its white horns, condensing a massive dragon phantom behind it. This towering figure, as large as a mountain, exuded a holy and noble aura, standing like a deity among the heavens and earth.
Crack, crack!
As the mighty phantom appeared, countless ice shards materialized in the air around the silver colossal dragon, instantly transforming a three-hundred-meter radius into a frozen world.
Between its wings, countless pure white ice shards circled, forming tiny spatial rifts that emanated a destructive aura. The Silver Dragon had used this incredibly powerful move once before in its battle with the Thunder Beast.
At the same time, the Nine-headed Serpent nearby gathered immense energy, with six of its heads opening their jaws to emit waves of fire, ice, and gravity.
The powerful auras from these two forces caught the attention of the distant Tiger Serpent, still locked in fierce combat. However, being suppressed by the Thunder Beast, it couldn't interrupt them and could only let out enraged roars, preparing to evade at any moment.
Though breath attacks and other ranged assaults were incredibly powerful, as long as the distance was sufficient, dodging them was quite simple—at least for the Tiger Serpent.
