I alone am the Honoured One!

Rhudamanth looked down at the battlefield. "Seems like it will take a while... before we can bargain."

With a thoughtful face, he glanced at Zaerina "Now that I remember it, there is that Husband of the cursed princess... whom Zhou Shan requested us to kill."

"Find him and kill him."

Zaerina nodded her head "Yes, Your Highness."

...

The battlefield trembled beneath the weight of the two Paragons.

Ji Shuang’s gaze narrowed as lightning crackled at her fingertips, the air itself bending under her aura.

With a single step of the Infernal Paragon, the entire battlefield fractured, magma spewing from beneath its feet as it raised one of its massive claws.

The air superheated instantly, and then—

BOOM!

The claw slammed down, and a devastating shockwave blasted outward as molten rock exploded across the landscape.

But the strike never connected.

CRACK!

A massive stone fist collided against the claw, stopping its descent.

One of the Ancestor Guardians had intercepted the attack, its colossal frame locking against the Infernal’s sheer weight.

Sparks flew and cracks spiderwebbed across the Guardian’s arm, but it held firm... matching the Paragon’s force blow for blow.

WHOOSH!

Before Ji Shuang could move, the Eternal made its move as light condensed into a massive sphere above its head, and suddenly, countless celestial chains erupted from the sky.

ZHHHRRRKKK!

The chains shot downward, aiming to bind Ji Shuang in place.

But she was faster.

BOOM!

A burst of purple lightning exploded from her body, disintegrating the first wave of chains before they could wrap around her.

But the Paragon raised its four arms, and the spheres orbiting its body rotated violently, summoning more chains...this time, each imbued with crushing spatial force.

Ji Shuang’s gaze flickered. ’If I get caught in that, it will take too much effort to break free.’

Instead of dodging, she charged forward.

THOOM!

With a single burst of power, she launched herself into the sky, heading directly for the Eternal’s chest.

The Paragon reacted instantly.

BOOM!

One of its massive fists swung downward, aiming to crush her mid-flight.

Ji Shuang’s body flickered... vanishing in a bolt of purple lightning.

ZZZAK!

She reappeared above the Paragon’s shoulder as raw energy coiled around her fist.

BOOM!!!

Her punch connected, and the Paragon’s entire left shoulder caved inward, chunks of its armor exploding outward in all directions.

The force of her strike rippled across the battlefield, sending shockwaves that flattened the terrain below.

But the Eternal did not fall.

BOOM!

As it countered with an uppercut, Ji Shuang’s eyes sharpened.

Instead of dodging, she met the attack head-on.

CRACK!

Her own fist clashed against the Paragon’s punch, and the sheer force of their collision created a rupture in space as a massive distortion consumed the very light around them.

The sky itself cracked, and in the next instant—

BOOM!!!!

The shockwave detonated outward, obliterating everything within miles.

Meanwhile—

The Infernal roared in fury, molten rivers spewing from its wounds, and the Ancestor Guardians pressed their assault.

One of them, wielding an ancient greatsword... swung with all its might.

SPLURCH!

The blade carved through the Infernal’s molten hide, causing lava to spill like blood from the wound.

The Paragon reeled back, its flaming core flickering violently, but it would not fall so easily.

With a guttural roar, it slammed its molten fists together, creating an eruption.

But the Ancestors were undeterred.

The largest Guardian stepped forward, raising its massive shield.

Runes ignited along its surface, and when the flames met its defense-

BOOM!

The shield held firm, parting the flames as if cutting through an ocean of fire.

One of the smaller Ancestor Guardians, wielding a war hammer, launched itself forward as the ground quaked beneath its weight.

With a single leap, it reached the Infernal’s chest.

And then—

BOOOOOM!!!

The hammer connected, and the Paragon’s body cracked violently, releasing a shockwave of magma.

The Infernal Paragon staggered from the war hammer’s impact as molten blood splattering across the battlefield like liquid fire.

Its obsidian flesh cracked, glowing fissures spreading like veins.

"GRUURGHHH!" With a guttural roar, it stomped the ground, and in an instant, a massive surge of volcanic energy burst outward.

The earth cracked open beneath the Guardians, geysers of flame and molten rock shooting into the sky, attempting to engulf them in a tidal wave of destruction.

The hammer-wielding Guardian, still airborne from its previous strike, twisted mid-air and raised its weapon once more.

It brought the hammer down with another devastating arc, aiming directly for the Infernal’s core.

But this time, the Paragon was ready.

With inhuman speed, it raised both of its colossal hands and caught the hammer just before it struck.

The force of the impact sent shockwaves through its arms, but it held firm, magma oozing from the cracks in its skin. @@novelbin@@

Its glowing eyes narrowed as its grip tightened.

Then, with a sudden burst of power, it twisted its massive arms and ripped the war hammer from the Guardian’s grasp.

The ancient warrior was thrown back, skidding across the battlefield as arcs of molten energy surged around the Paragon’s fingers.

"ROAAAR!!" Then, with an earth-shattering roar, it hurled the stolen hammer with the force of a meteor.

The hammer crashed into the battlefield like a falling star, sending debris flying in every direction.

Meanwhile, Ji Shuang continued her assault against the Eternal Paragon, weaving between its blows with lightning speed.

The celestial chains kept manifesting, shooting toward her with terrifying precision.

But she was relentless. With every burst of movement, she shattered the chains before they could restrain her.

As she moved, her fingertips crackled, arcs of violet lightning wrapping around her arms.

Purple lightning condensed around her and she sent an elbow cut at its chest.

Her blow landed against the Paragon’s armored chest, causing its golden plating to dent and warp

But the Eternal did not falter. Instead, it raised one of its four arms and suddenly clapped its hands together.

A deafening shockwave erupted from the impact, blasting Ji Shuang backward mid-air. Find your next read at NovelBin.Côm

The very fabric of space seemed to ripple around them as the force sent her tumbling across the battlefield.

But she did not crash.

Twisting in mid-air, she spun like a thunderbolt and reoriented herself, landing gracefully atop a floating fragment of a shattered building.

Her gaze narrowed. This Eternal was powerful. But she was stronger.

The clouds above churned, darkening with raw, unbridled energy.

Lightning crackled violently across the skies, illuminating the battlefield in chaotic flashes.

Then, as the Eternal Paragon prepared another attack, she clenched her fists and pulled—and the sky itself responded.

BOOOOOOOM!

A gargantuan bolt of purple lightning descended from the skies, striking the Eternal with such force that the ground beneath it collapsed.

The air burned as a violet storm engulfed the battlefield, the shockwave obliterating everything in its path.

The Eternal reeled back, its armor sizzling and cracked from the impact as its entire frame trembled under the sheer power of Ji Shuang’s wrath.

But it did not fall.

Its eyes burned with resolve as the damaged spheres around its shoulders rotated once more.

Then, with a flick of its fingers, it tore a rift in space.
