Corrupt Creations

Chapter 316 - Full Power

Velgor swiftly merged with the shadows, turning into a cluster of darkness that moved around the surface of the ground. It was his best chance to reach Seth's position and deal a finishing blow now.

Seth came to a stop a few hundred meters from the initial point that he was, but before he could recompose himself, black shadows surged upward, bringing with it a figure totally enveloped in darkness. It stood right in front of him, ready to strike at any given second.

Velgor looked at Seth's face, eccentric that he would be killing him in the next blow and without further ado, he thrust his new arm composed of dark matter forward, aiming to pierce the enemy in the same spot he had before.

But just as his hand was about to touch Seth, he felt a hand holding his new arm and thoroughly stopping it.

Thud!

The Demon Emperor instantly got surprised, he never thought Seth would be able to stop an attack from his new and powerful arm. But suddenly, his eyebrows furrowed.

Velgor felt the same feeling from before, like he was being held in place by a whole mountain and not a hand, but this is something that shouldn't be happening now. Actually, in his conception, it couldn't be happening, absolutely not.

"Impossible!" He tried to pull his new arm away, but it didn't move.

Truthfully saying, with Velgor's new strength, Seth wouldn't be able to stop him at all, even if he was in his top condition. But right at that moment, Seth was drawing support of a special power, much like what Velgor was doing. But his support came from the Crimson Light.

Crimson lines abruptly formed on Seth's skin and even his eyes were getting that unholy reddish color on them. Seth had just allowed the Crimson Light energy to flow inside of his veins and from that point onwards, he was another man. Even his bearing had gotten more tyrannical.

"Ahaha!!! Good! You hadn't disappointed me as the Demon Emperor. Now, it's when the real battle begins!"

Just as he said that, his greatsword materialized in front of him. It was an item connected to his internal dimension and when he allowed the Corruption to flow inside his veins, he felt the connection he had with it. Seth held the hilt of that weapon with a single hand and with his sheer physical prowess, he swinged it up.

There was a very sinister smile on his lips, as if it was time to go on a hunt.

When Velgor saw that vermillion blade coming his way, he tried to get away as fast as he could, but Seth held his arm in place, not allowing him to leave. Velgor even felt that there was a tyrannical energy suppressing his abilities, making it impossible that his body could change to shadows. However, he knew that if he were to be directly struck by that attack, he would certainly die. There was something on that blade that awakened a primal fear inside of him.

Without thinking twice, Velgor detached his new formed arm from his body and jumped backwards, escaping from being directly hit by that strike. But even so, a storm produced by the mere movement stimulation of that weapon, caught him off guard. That powerful storm caused many of his internal organs to shift positions and he immediately spat a mouthful of dark blood.

At least he had escaped death, but he had to pay the price of an arm for that; once again.

"Argh!" Velgor felt pain and hatred at the same time. As his figure distanced himself from Seth, he seemed alarmed and afraid as well. When his eyes looked towards his "disciple's" direction, he felt a very oppressive aura coming from him, followed by a crimson light that was circling around his body.

Velgor immediately recognized that strength, since he had used it many times together with one of his subordinates, Barghest. It was the Crimson Agent!

They had used it to test many things out, in an attempt to one day be able to control that overbearing energy. However, at that moment, the one who had control over it was Seth.

"AHHHH!!! Why are you able to use that power?! That power should have been mine! All you have should have been mine!!! You do not deserve it... Nothing! You deserve nothing you have!" Suddenly, after witnessing Seth's abilities, Velgor freaked out. His calm demeanor fell to the ground as he hysterically screamed.

At that moment, when he witnessed Seth had everything he wanted to have, his demeanor finally fell apart.

Seth grabbed on the hilt of his greatsword with both his hands and his essence of corruption connected perfectly his body to the weapon, creating a menacing power that thoroughly pressured Velgor. Even though he was being enhanced by the source blood of the Shadow Demon, Seth's aura was able to easily suppress his darkness.

"You're wrong. The one who do not deserve anything, is you! That's why I will destroy your essence and everything that you are, finally freeing the world from your presence."

"You!!! I'll fucking kill you!" Velgor suddenly ascended to the skies, channeling all his Mana into his next attack. Huge clouds, charged with dark elemental energy took over the entire place, easily surpassing a fifty thousand meters area.

His Mana Sovereign middle-stage Realm cultivation base was thoroughly channeled in that technique, getting ready to create one of the deadliest abilities ever seen in this plane. Velgor had dumped all the Mana he still had in that ability, disregarding anything else.

Seth had the opportunity to attack at that moment, but he decided to wait. With his tyrant-like disposition brought by the usage of the Crimson Light, what he wanted now, was to completely crush Velgor's abilities and step right on top of his ego.

The Demon Emperor extended his single arm upwards and the dark clouds suddenly lowered themselves to his level, almost touching the ground. Those fifty thousand meters area instantly entered in the night time.

Velgor's Mana thoroughly connected to those dark elemental clouds, while he stared downwards at Seth with hatred. When he opened his mouth, those clouds started to be stimulated, bring forth a deadly aura, infused with gloominess and destruction.

"Chaos Formation!"

BOOM!

As if there was a demon waiting for the right time to finally act, those huge dark clouds opened themselves up, revealing hundreds of thousands of dark limbs, that resemble arms of demonic beings. Each one of those arms were very thick, full of spiky protrusions and thoroughly constituted out of Velgor's darkness. Each one of them carried the source power of a Shadow Demon, trying to rip Seth and every single living creature in that huge area to shreds.

The energy fluctuations released by that technique, created a chaotic environment and even before one of those hands touched the ground, things were already suffering a massive destruction from dark elemental shockwaves.

That entire fifty-kilometer area, entered in a state of a chaotic destruction, killing every single animal and practitioner unlucky enough to get caught inside.

Unfortunately, there were some curious cultivators that had braved themselves to explore the valley, trying to understand what was actually happening there. Most of them were part of exploration groups sent by the villages that were affected by Seth and Velgor's battle.

Velgor's ability had covered an area so insanely big, that those unlucky fellows were caught unprepared and by surprise. Against a Mana Sovereign middle-stage Realm cultivator's ability, none of them had any chance of survival.

As darkness was swallowing everything, the only spot it wasn't able to affect, was right where Seth was standing. His crimson aura seemed to be immovable and impenetrable. However, as he looked up and saw those hundreds of thousands of demonic hands coming his way, it was inevitable that he would feel some pressure.

But just like Velgor, Seth had yet to demonstrate his strongest skills and it was the perfect time for that.

His Essence of Corruption swiftly started to spread to the whole floor, generating millions of thin crimson filaments of corruption, that traveled really quick through the ground.

Wherever those crimson filaments traveled through, they easily corrupted the dark elemental energy around them, infusing corruption even inside that chaotic environment. However, the corruption went even beyond that. The dark elemental energy that was being affected, was quickly being assimilated to the corruption, increasing its power.

When those demonic hands were close to reaching the ground, Seth intensified the corruption he was releasing and screamed the name of his technique.

"Doomsday!"

Suddenly, the crimson filaments infecting the darkness, used all the power contained inside that mixture to create a massive explosion that shook the whole valley.

BOOOOOOOM!!!

Darkness and Corruption filled the entire sky, clashing against those hundreds of thousands of demonic hands and creating the strongest shockwave seen in the history of the continent of Alteria.
