Hero of Darkness

Chapter 1009 The Final Technique

Chapter 1009  The Final Technique

After the conclusion of his previous Apostle of War mode, future Kahn decided that it was time to use the final technique taught by his master, Romulus.

This was a technique created by his mentor, the Apostle of Slaughter, and was common in both timelines.

In this timeline, Kahn learned a lot of overpowered techniques created specifically for him given his powers, skills, and bloodlines.

First was Harnessing which allowed him to compress and condense World Energy while constantly fluctuating it on the atomic level, similar to the Fission reaction used in a nuclear bomb.

That raised the output of his summoned weapons, attack skills, and magic spells by 7 to 8 times.

Second was Conceptualization which allowed him to turn a lightning weapon attack or spell to any attack of a different element best suited to counter an enemy attack in a mere moment along with changing the form of weapon and spell at the same time without suffering any form of backlash.

The third being Embodiment which allowed Kahn to use his different bloodlines and turn into a massive 1-kilometer-tall being with the best passive abilities of his 5 powerful bloodlines such as the Apostle of War mode.

Unlike the Asura Mode or Shura Mode, future Kahn did not even need the assistance of System to create that form.

The Fourth was called the World of Gluttony. By using it, Kahn merged plenty of his overpowered skills and even Space Law skills to create a literal black hole that could not only engulf everything in the world, but also suck away World Energy from Saints like a vicarious beast with unfathomable hunger.

And finally, it was time for the 5th and final one…

Now, Future Kahn's gaze turned to the Dragon hovering around him.

"It's time to fight together again, old friend." he spoke in a resolute tone and nodded with a sense of understanding.

The massive dragon nodded as well and before the eyes of the Hero of Time…

RAWR!!

The massive dragon opened his maw and swallowed the future Kahn completely, eating him alive.

Swoosh!

Things didn't stop here as the dragon leaking cosmic aether soon shot itself towards the Black Sun.

Anakin was left gobsmacked as he saw the dragon being swallowed and disappearing inside the Black Sun skill Kahn created. [That thing can kill even a hero. And he's entering that block hole?] he asked himself, completely bewildered.

Shrink!

Shrink!

But soon, the black sun started shrinking and all the world energy in it started coalescing into a small sphere.

Squirm!

Squirm!

Finally, all the Darkness, and the World Energy gathered inside the Black Sun was merged with the blue Cosmic Aether leaking from the Dragon's body.

BOOM!!

A massive black and blue pillar of darkness and cosmic aether exploded and an overwhelming presence appeared out of it.

"This is the 5th technique… The Personification." spoke the newly emerged being in a deep rustic voice that sounded anything but human.

A head with multiple horns and a draconic face, a 10-meter tall ripped and muscular as well as scaly body with pitch black darkness and blue cosmic aether running across its veins appeared.

"This is… My Dragonoid Form." declared this new entity.

----------------

The silence ensued in the surroundings but things didn't end as the 30-kilometer radius battlefield filled with millions of timelines started shaking.

Soon, a blinding light appeared and a massive 100-meter-tall bursting flame made of 6 different colors, giving off an otherworldly aura appeared in the sky.

Future Kahn had summoned… Amaterasu.

"Gideon, did you forget about the Divine Keys, you idiot?

In case you forgot… I killed the Hero of Fire and gained his divine weapon too." declared this Dragonoid Kahn in a deep and domineering tone.

"And unlike what you know, the divine weapons can acknowledge another hero as their master." he iterated.

Flutter! Soon, the blue cosmic aether from Dragonoid Kahn's body arose and flew towards the flame as mixed his cosmic aether with Amaterasu.

BOOM!

Now, the entire Amaterasu turned into a dark blue fire that gave off the aura of both its destructive as well as chaotic nature and space law.

Shoot!

Crumble!

Kahn started attacking with multiple laserbeams and pulverized multiple streams of timelines that couldn't be touched before.

"How is that possible? Even in the past, you were not able to destroy them but only deactivate them for a short time." spoke Anakin, completely gobsmacked.

"Because I have a divine weapon with one of the most destructive powers among all the other divine weapons and now I mixed with cosmic aether, an essence only available from the Linchpins of Multiverse." revealed Kahn in a majestic voice.

"What?!

Did you go to the Empire of Space already?" asked the Hero of Time in a befuddled voice.

"Nope. I explored some more within a tool I already had." replied Kahn coldly.

Kahn did not tell him about the existence of the Tablet of Arcana or the Chamber of Exaltation.

This was something he hadn't told the Hero of Time even in the original timeline.

Anakin knew about his connection to Rathnaar and the Peak Saint's core from the past timeline.

The main reason he had found out about it was because of his own divine weapon, Finality of Time.

Because in one of the streams of timeline, he saw Kahn never running out of world energy and after looking into the matter, he found a scenario where the connection was revealed.

This was also one of the reasons why Anakin brought an Ancient Rank artifact called Warhorn of Confinement that severed this connection between him and Rathnaar to kill Kahn in this timeline.

Had not it been for the future Kahn returning as well, he would have succeeded just by activating his divine weapon and Domain of Chronokinesis which messed with people's perception of time.

But for some reason, the future Kahn had no sense of danger even now despite not having the means to counter it since those countermeasures hadn't happened yet.

Bang!

Anakin did not get enough time to digest this predicament as Dragonoid Kahn attacked the streams of timeline with his bare fists covered in the cosmic aether.

Boom!

Shatter!

Along with Amaterasu who kept attacking the streams of timelines before Anakin turned them into reality, the Draganoid Kahn was like a ferocious beast with overwhelming power who was relentless in his pursuit to kill the Hero of Time.

Punch!

BOOM!!

Anakin's figure shot forth like a bullet and landed in a small peak, destroying it instantly.

And as the dust settled from this encounter, a massive 5-kilometer radius crater was formed.

This was a battle of Saints with godly bodies. Just a normal punch was enough to decimate a mountain because of their use of world energy.

Right then, another voice echoed in Kahn's mind.

[Haha ha! It's been ages since I faced and fought the Finality of Time. Although you're not the one I made the contract with, I have to thank you for the satisfaction.] spoke an archaic voice in Kahn's mind.

[No need to thank me over such a minor thing, Amaterasu.

I should at least give you a show for acknowledging me as your master in this timeline.

Besides, your fire is better even than the Dragonfire and Hellfire to merge my cosmic aether with.

They would have merely affected the streams but with your divine fire and my dimensional law, I can burn the timeline itself.] replied Kahn to the Divine Weapon, Amaterasu.

"Hey Gideon, this is getting boring. I know your Soul Essence is running out and your world energy is at least half than before.

So I will stop holding back and end things quickly." said future Kahn and smirked.

His dragon face with sharp fangs and his burning blue eyes gave him a sinister look.

Woosh!

Woosh!

He started attacking the Hero of Time. Soon, he started killing Anakin with mere punches and kicks.

Once, he ripped out his heart and his head together. But Anakin reverted to his original form in a microsecond.

Each time, Kahn was killing the Hero of Time differently.

Previously, when the current Kahn fought the Hero of Fire with Death Absolution skills, it took him a couple of hours, and had to come up with different strategies to take him down each time.

But the future Kahn was accomplishing exactly the same feat but so frequently and quickly that it only had been a minute but he already killed the Hero of Time over 13 times.

"Tch! This fucker just can't die as long as his divine weapon and domain is active.

I'll just have to beat him senseless and kill him until he loses his world energy completely and most of his soul essence until he can't carry on." he said and kept attacking in a frenzy.

What carried on was something both the future Kahn and the current Kahn were experts on. And that was…

Torturing their enemies to death.

----------------

An hour passed and Kahn had killed the Hero of Time more than 246 times.

Each time, Anakin went through a horrifying and excruciatingly painful death.

Because he was using both the divine weapon and domain, he could not cast too many spells and countermeasures that would save him.

Plus, the Dragonoid Kahn was already as strong as a Beginner 7th-stage saint just like when he used the Embodiment Technique while fighting the other saints from the Hero's Party.

No matter what defense he used, Kahn simply punched and kicked his way out of it.

And now, Amaterasu had also destroyed up to 98% of the timelines before they became reality.

As for the remaining 2%... it looked like they were left untouched for a reason.

"Arghhhh! You bastard! I'll fucking kill you!" spoke Anakin.

Bang!

Kahn just punched a hole through Anakin's torso and only his shoulders and head remained. The rest of the body was incinerated in mere moments since the fire made of cosmic aether was also the Dragonfire.

"You talkin mad shit for someone who I killed more than 200 times." spoke Kahn with a disgusted look.

Shatter!

Amaterasu finally finished the job and only 4 streams of timeline remained.

"That's it, you bastard! Your time is over!" spoke Anakin after reverting his physical state to perfect when he was untouched.

"Now, I will make them into reality!" he exclaimed with a sinister smile.

However… instead of feeling worried, future Kahn only responded with a smirk.

"Good. I would like nothing more.

But at least look at them first." he suggested.

"Did you really think I couldn't destroy them in time? No, I spared those out of pity and gave you an option." declared Kahn in an overbearing tone.

Anakin pulled all 4 streams of timelines closer to him and saw what was happening in them.

Shudder!

His body shivered in terror as he saw the result.

Because in each one of them, the Dragonoid Kahn had killed the Hero of Time in the most gruesome and humiliating way possible.

"Now tell me, O' mighty Hero of Time…" spoke the Draganoid Kahn in a domineering voice…

"Which timeline do you want to become reality?"
