The Rise Of Calamity

Chapter 197 - Battle Of Giants IV - Azure Flames

Looking back at the explosion as my bones healed and my organs repaired themselves, I watched as a large winged figure flew out of the explosion with a trail of smoke following it before it started to gradually fall. However, a few seconds before it, the figure flapped its wings with so much power and force that it caused the remaining trees in the area it was about to fall on to be uprooted and flung into the air.

I slowly got back on my feet and watched as several cracks began to glow a golden light across my body as if warning me that if I were to not use the mana inside me right now, I would explode.

*Sigh*

I looked at the sky with a slight sigh before I smiled

"Let me show you the power..." My voice swept the lands and was heard by everything in a 1km radius.

I slowly lifted my right foot above the ground before muttering

"The power of a divine being of my caliber"

My foot smashed back into the ground sending both shockwaves and cobweb-like cracks across the floor of what little remained of the forest.

As the cracks spread throughout the floors of the forest, the ground began to sway before swelling and moving outwards in waves. It was almost like the ground under me had just turned into a sea of mud that began to sway like the waves of the sea.

This phenomenon began to spread out from the area where my foot landed, almost reaching 200-meters before the spreading began to stop.

The mana that was coming in was simply not sufficient enough to keep the effect for more than 200-meters, however, this did not mean that the spreading had stopped, nor did it mean all my mana had been simply used up something so mediocre.

I watched as the dragon snorted at my stupid attempt before flying above the ground with eyes filled with disdain. Not only was earth one of its main elements, but it also had the genetics of a dragon. This meant that it would dominate when it came to suing the same element, therefore allowing it to conclude that it would easily be able to rip my control of the ground away from me without even breaking a sweat.

*Rumble*

A surge of mana began to form high in the sky as clouds began to clutter within the area, creating a dense black cloud that would create a thick shadow that covered the entire region. 

The next instant, however, rumbling began to come out of the clouds while small flashes of gold and silver shone from deep inside with enough power to vaporize in its path.

*RUMBLE* *BOOM*

A bolt of lightning flashed and hit one of the wings of the wyvern before it could even realize what had happened. However, due to it having an extremely high affinity with the earth element, the only damage that was caused was the minor scratches on the surface of its scales

Even though the wyvern was initially surprised, its surprise faded away and turned into a mockery as to how weak the attack was.

'Tsk, it truly is a peak diamond tier beast' I cursed inwardly.

Looking at its almost mocking eyes, I felt a surge of anger take over me for a second before a surge of pain overtook my senses and broke my expression.

The one second that I allowed the anger to overtake me came to the pain, causing the extremely pained expression to be shown to the wyvern who was stunned for a second. He was only stunned for a second thought because, in the next moment, a sky-shaking laugh came out of his throat.

"HAHAHAHA! You can't even fully absorb the inheritance and yet you are trying to fight me head on!? WHAT FOOLISHNESS! WHAT ABSOLUTE FOOLISHNESS. HAVE YOU BECOME STUPID FROM THE PAIN HAHAHAHAH!"

Simultaneously, cracks began to appear across my jade-like skin followed by another surge of pain.

'Fuck it... Lightning body, Aura of a thousand battles, Light body, Blue flames of a symphony; Dance of blue flames'

Surges of different colors began to shroud my body from head to toe before making my power explode alongside the power of my killing intent and uncontrolled battle aura.

The colors began to expand outwards in a vortex motion with the power of a tornado. 

The ground began to crumble under my feet while the flames around me turned whiter and whiter by the second.

*Woosh*

The sound of my body going through the air was the only thing that had warned the wyvern of my arrival, giving it enough time to flap its wings before appearing a few hundred meters away.

Simultaneously, the ground incaved and grumbled before being uprooted out of its place and thrown into the air as if the gust created from the flap was a cataclysmic event rather than just that, a gust of wind.

However, being as stubborn as I am, I did not allow the wyvern to run further, subsequently barraging it with rainfall of golden-silver lighting.

The golden-silver lighting could only stop it for a single second, however, that was all I needed from it, a single second where it would not be able to move forwards.

With a combination of flash steps and all the boosts that I had put onto my body, I flickered and disappeared before reappearing in front of the wyvern.

Coldness flashed in my eyes, both metaphorically and literally.

'Azure flames'

The fist was immediately covered with an azure-silver light before turning into a blur and appearing again in front of the wyverns chest. 

The wyvern was very quick on its feet, moving its wing in front of its chest allowing it to take the hit, yet that was one of the biggest mistakes it could have made.

Immediately, a layer of frost began to spread from the place my fist made contact before spreading along the wing, almost covering half of it with ice. At a slower pace, the same azure flame was spread from the point of contact with a much deadlier effect than a bit of ice on top of the wing.

It began to freeze everything, create more ice around it before starting to burn the wing of the dragon, digging deep into the wing and freezing a lot of the blood that circulated there.
