945 Hulak and the shadow
Meanwhile-- Northern Edge Mountain
"By the order of the Supreme Lord, by the order of His Majesty Pythor... Die!"
"Hahaha, that's refreshing, I want to see how I will die!!" Hulak laughed out loud, then rushed forward, raising his fist, wanting to blow that dreamer's head off in one blow before rushing into the Second Heaven's Chosen Library where the body of Marshal Celipus lay.
But...
*Rumble* *Rumble*
At this moment, the black box exploded and a gray smoke came out of it. That smoke expanded and took the form of a huge faceless human, only two ruby-red eyes were visible under that empty hood.
*Ba-dum*
"...!!!" Hulak's heart pounded loudly and then stopped for a moment, he himself froze in the spot and slowly looked up, for the first time in his life, Ancestor Hulak felt scared.
*Rumble* Rumble*
The clouds in the sky disappeared, and its blue color changed to a dark red, the ground of the northern region began to shake and the waterfalls stopped, birds fell from the air and the fish swimming near the surface flipped over on their backs as they died instantly... It seemed as if a World Cataclysm had befallen the entire planet!
That shadow didn't waste much time, it moved one hand and pointed toward Hulak, and a gray beam shot out toward him.
"You... you don't scare me! Nothing alive can stand in my way for I, Hulak, am invincible!!" To encourage himself, Hulak shouted loudly and activated his Blue Flame Shield to its maximum power, and gathered his strength in his fist like he had never gathered it before, then punched forward, "KAAAA!!!"
The punch was devastating, even Hulak himself didn't know he could unleash this kind of power when cornered... Nihari's weak space cracked and twisted, and the remaining air in the atmosphere exploded with a tremendous cry that made the ears of the Great Serpent Emperors bleed, just the compressed air released from the punch was enough to wipe out a small city!
But... *WHOOOOO*
The gray beam split open the air of Hulak's punch like nothing and quickly reached his fist, *Hshhh*
"AAHHHHH!!!!" Hulak screamed as he saw his fist vanish before his eyes, then his wrist, elbow, and upper arm disappeared at an incredible speed until the beam devoured his entire arm from under the armor!
Crixus The Great releasing all his charge of flame did nothing but slow down the progress of the grey energy, and the moment it stopped it started accelerating again, "AAHHHH!!!!"
The skin, flesh and bone on Hulak's chest began to fade away, revealing his lungs and heart from under the armor.
"RROOAAAARR!!!" The great Crixus looked up at the sky and roared, not knowing what to do, all that remained was to stay by his partner's side in his final moments.
During his screams and when Hulak saw death waiting, he remembered one last thing, "Niri! I know you're the one who destroyed that shadow, I know you see me! Niri help me!!"
"Sorry~ I have the authority to intervene in the event that a force beyond the scope of a martial emperor appears and destroys it, but I can't repair the damage that was already done by that force, and you're not the only one who was harmed by that violent intervention today, there were two other attacks at the same time, the damage over there is much more terrifying."
"I'll use... all of my refinement percentage!! Niri, he-- help me! HELP ME!! H.. i... l.. p..." For the first time in his life, Hulak was unable to speak properly, his right lung had completely disappeared and the gray energy had reached his heart and neck.
"So we can talk!" A burst of laughter sounded in Hulak's head, and then a cloud formed directly above his body and began to rain down on him with bright green drops of pure clarity, in the blink of an eye the remaining gray energy vanished.
The sight of the small cloud raining was breathtaking, anyone who saw those beautiful drops falling would keep that scene in their minds forever.
Hulak was wide-eyed and looked up directly at the cloud, but it appeared and disappeared without him showing any reaction.
His eyes were open... but lifeless.
"...." Crixus The Great looked at his partner with sorrow, the planet's spirit stopped his torment, but it was too late, his heart had suffered great damage from the gray energy.
Crixus raised his head and opened his great wings to the fullest, blue flames began to gather in his throat, his last mission as his partner and friend would be to burn his body properly so that none of his enemies would tamper with it.
*Ba-dum*
