The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

The power behind the punch sent the Scarlet King flying away. Still, before the Deus Bahamut could chase after him, he rotated his body to get rid of the kinetic power and rose to the sky, his eyes never leaving Damasko.

Although his eyes did not leave the Deus Behemoth with blue scales, the Demonic Phantom's condition was clear in his mind. The avatar that was supposed to keep the man at bay for at least a few minutes was now entangled between giant branches bathed in a dark fog that emerged from the back of the woman.

Lamina felt the gaze of the Scarlet King on her but did not lose focus and kept using her giant branches to hold the avatar of darkness and blood in place. While the Demonic Phantom continuously shattered the branches, she did not lose focus and regenerated them over and over.

Of course, fixing the branches required energy, but the dark fog covering them not only improved the constrictive power of these but also allowed them to devour the target's energy.

'Her mastery over the Law of Darkness must have reached a very high level if she can perform that type of skill.'

The Scarlet King had to admit he underestimated the woman but didn't dwell on it too much. She and the Demonic Phantom neutralized each other, leaving Damasko and him to fight one-on-one. Find exclusive stories on My Virtual Library Empire

Although the Scarlet King had already killed a Bone Calamity Apotheosis Realm Master before and was now much more powerful, Sarun was severely injured during their clash, and he managed to take Atrox by surprise. If he grew overconfident against the Deus Behemoth, he might regret it.

Immediately, the Scaler King's Astral Wave burst with all its power, enhancing his body, while Essence Wave covered the weapon, flooding it with darkness and shadows.

Damasko's eyes widened as he saw the two types of energies emerging from the man in the red mask and came to the realization that this one was in control of an avatar of darkness and blood as well.

'A dual cultivator capable of Apotheosis battle power in both paths!?'

Damasko couldn't believe what he saw since the mere notion of someone performing dual cultivation was taboo, as it was considered a waste of potential and time. However, he shook his head, throwing away all unnecessary thoughts as he tightened his fists and made his Astral Wave burst with all its power, improving his might before flashing into the sky.

The Scarlet King's eyes glowed with red light as the thrill of battle made his heart beat with even more power, pushing the Asura Form's Third Gear to its peak before flashing down.

"¡BOOM!"

A powerful shock wave spread across the sky as the blade and fist clashed, but the collision did not send the Scarlet King flying away this time. Less than a fraction of a second after the crash, he twisted his weapon to the side, redirecting the power behind Damasko's fist away.

Damasko's eyes widened as he saw the man's mastery of martial arts. Before he could retract his arm or send a punch with the other, a kick landed on his jaw with so much potency it seemed to want to rip his head off.

The Scarlet King's kick had immense power but it felt like he was kicking a mountain. The strength of the Deus Behemoth's spine was so immense that it diminished the power of blows to the head and protected the brain from concussions, which was why Damasko was able to immediately respond with his own kick.

Since the Scarlet King's foot was still connected to Damasko's jaw, he could not dodge the kick that landed straight on his chest. He felt how small cracks formed in his ribs before being sent flying away.

'Dammit. That oceanic force and pressure are also in his kicks. Luckily, I pushed my Biometal Herculean Technique to the peak of the Third Level, or else it would have shattered my ribs.'

Even though the Fourth Level of the Biometal Herculean Technique was impossible to achieve as a Wave Champion, the Scarlet King was able to push the technique to the highest level of the Third Level. And now, he can unleash the true power of the skill by using his Astral Wave and Blood Energy.

Damasko saw how the Scarlet King was hurtling away without control, but he could not chase after the man. Although the kick to the jaw did not provoke a crippling concussion, it still incapacitated him for a moment. It took all his power to send that leg strike but pursuing was too much to ask from his body.@@novelbin@@

The Scarlet King and Damasko regained complete control over their bodies almost at the same time, and their eyes burst with killing intent as they flashed back into the fray, ready to use everything they had to kill the other.

"¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!"

Explosions flooded the sky as the Scarlet King's blade and Damasko's fists continued clashing over and over again.

At the beginning of the fight, the Deus Behemoth used those powerful attacks, but after seeing how easily his opponent could read his movements, he changed his fighting style, making it more fluid and faster.

The Scarlet King was still able to read the movements of Damasko, but the man was too fast and launched too many strikes at the same time for him to generate a proper counter. Engaging in a battle of strength would mean his loss, so he was trying to focus on skill.

However, not only was the Deus Behemoth's offensive powerful, but he could also use quick, fluid movements to create a mist-like effect, allowing him to dodge the blade and block Cain's vision.

Not even five minutes had passed since the Scarlet King began his direct fight with the Deus Behemoth, but he was already starting to accumulate injuries, and his energy pool began to slow down.

Of course, one had to consider that the Demonic Phantom was entangled with the Earth Tribulation Master, but the Scarlet King was sure that even if the creature were to help him, he would still be at a disadvantage.
