....
Meanwhile, as the women in Azmond's group were having fun talking to each other, a certain otherworldly handsome man with a white flowing robe on was staring at a massive monster tens of thousands of miles in the sky.
Both Azmond and Cockoff had already approached the line that separated the higher atmosphere from the Starry Expanse; however, one of them was too busy zipping around in seemingly arbitrary directions to notice how far they had gone up.
"..." Azmond looked at the light show occurring in the air around him as the entire world looked to light up with every movement that Cockoff made.
BZZTT! BZZTT! BZZTT!
He darted in every which direction, eventually coalescing with his previous path as he neared levels nearly 20 times the speed of light!
"Are you ready to bear witness to my irresistibly unequivocally unlimited power, human!?"
Cockoff's conceited voice reverberated through the skies as his face popped up a few times in between his blitzing sessions.
"..." Azmond saw his face appear for a second as he replied, "Sure."
He was becoming a little dizzy after watching Cockoff dance around him like a fly, but he had finally found a strong enough opponent that wasn't Clawdia, so he would take whatever clown show he was able to get.
"You don't take me seriously, Vermin. But I will show just how foolish you were for underestimating me!! Bare witness to my irresistibly unlimited absurdly-" He couldn't even finish his catchphrase as Azmond interrupted him, saying,.
"Shorten it to ten words or less!"
He was becoming exhausted with all the talking that this guy was doing! Couldn't he just get the attack over and done with!?
"..." Cockoff processed the human's voice for a second before his rage reached an all-time high as he roared, "Truly Courting Death!!!"
RUMBLE!
His aura blasted through the layer between the first layer of Asterion and the Starry Expanse, as Cockoff was tired of the vermin's sardonic tone!
Following such an eruption of energy, he condensed his black Qi into a colossal cannon that he stacked over the side of his shoulder and aimed it in the direction of Azmond.
"Let's see how you like this, you human scum!!"
Azmond looked up at the country-sized cannon before he said, "Finally something interesting!"
The power building up within that cannon was of at least the Absolute Peak of the Seventh Cataclysm Tribulation Transcendence Realm, and it was infinitely close to breaching into the Half-Step Mahayana Realm!
And it was through this fact that Azmond became a little excited to test out the new and improved skills that he had increased his proficiency in.
The space separating the first layer of Asterion and the Starry Expanse started to violently shake as cracks started to spread throughout the barrier that separated the two spaces!
He also took his chance to glance at the system interface of Cockoff as a bright light flashed.
BLING!
[Cockoff the Malnourished: Tier 1: Level 44]

"..."
Azmond looked over his system interface for a second before he turned his attention back toward the 'malnourished one' himself.
-
WHAZOOOM!
Lethal energies from the dark void beyond started to leak into the first layer of Asterion as the atmosphere immediately reached a level of frigidness that made it feel like the whole world was about to freeze over!
But the two who caused such a discrepancy in the layers between space's, stared at each other with primal gazes as they darted toward each other at levels over thirty times the speed of light.
They were putting everything they had into their attackseverything that their existence's could offer them!
The tension between the two of them seemed to be capable of slashing dimensions in half! And just as their blades were about to make contact, Azmond swiveled his body around Cockoff's greatsword.
It was a feat that was only made possible thanks to his far smaller, two hundred thousand-meter long body.
