Chapter 262: Ice Styx Dragon vs Abyssfire Demon Phoenix
Inside the magmatic chamber filled with dark poisonous lava, the Ice Styx Dragon and the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix were fighting. The energy that transformed the lava did not stop working as the two fought and it was a matter of time before the magmatic chamber was filled with something completely different.
One of them released frost and toxic energy from its body while the other was wrapped in a black fire that evaporated everything around him.
The collisions between these two massive demonic figures released powerful shock waves full of black fire and toxic frost energy. A void formed around the Ice Styx Dragon and Abyssfire Demon Phoenix every time they clashed. In the next second, the dark lava that was pushed backward came back and submerged their bodies.
The Ice Styx Dragon was immune to the poisonous energy in the lava and it was also able to move through it without a problem. The Abyssfire Demon Phoenix, on the other hand, was forced to spend its energy to protect himself from the lava that had previously helped his recovery.
Despite fighting in a battlefield that weakened his power, the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix was stronger and faster than the Ice Styx Dragon.
“AWW!” The demon released a cry full of murdering desire as it flashed to the Ice Styx Dragon and ripped a piece of its back before releasing a blast of black fire.
After the Ice Styx Dragon endured that attack, the ice that formed its body was thin enough to allow the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix to see with his own eyes the body of the Neo-Demon.
Despite being a demon, the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix was not a slave to his chaotic evil impulses. His bloodline allowed him to possess an intelligence not inferior to a devil.
As the fight developed, he learned that attacking the head or another vital point of the Ice Styx Dragon would be useless since the creature was just a powerful construct. No matter how much damage he inflicted, it would only result in Sophia having to consume her energy to rebuild the creature.
The Abyssfire Demon Phoenix’s consciousness was strong enough to detect the Neo-Demon inside the creature, despite the isolating effect of the Styx water. This required putting pressure on his wounded consciousness and a lot of effort, so the demon was not willing to waste this chance.
The demon prepared to release a beam of fire energy from its beak when the wings of the Ice Styx Dragon shot more than half of the ice spears that formed them, in his direction.
The demon was forced to delay his attack to dodge those ice spears. Unfortunately for him, the Neo-Demon acted fast and made the Ice Styx Dragon twist, before moving her body to another part of the creature.
Not losing her momentum, Sophia manipulated the Ice Styx Dragon like it was a six hundred meter drill and attacked the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix with a potency capable of destroying mountains and leveling cities. The rotation drew the lava around the Ice Styx Dragon which increased the range of the attack.
The distance between the two was too short and the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix had just finished dodging those spears, so he knew he would not be able to evade the attack. Without wasting time, the demon folded his wings around his body and transformed himself into a tornado of black fire as he flashed to Sophia’s direction.
Both demonic entities took the form of natural disasters.
The moment the Ice Styx Dragon and the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix clashed, an explosion of ice and fire was generated that made the entire volcano tremble.
Both creatures were pushed backward and the injuries in them were deep.
The Abyssfire Demon Phoenix had a piece of his chest ripped and you could see on his eyes that he was enduring great pain. The damage to his body was small, but that attack had managed to reach the demon’s consciousness.
The condition of the Ice Styx Dragon was much worse than the one of the demon. Its head was nowhere to be seen as well as the upper side of the creature’s body. If it was a living being, then death would have been the only result of such severe damage.
But despite its power, it was just a construct made by Sophia’s energy. The ice turned back to a liquid state and in the next second, the Ice Styx Dragon was reformed. The size of the creature had decreased by one hundred and fifty meters but besides that, no other damage could be seen in it.
When the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix saw the state of the Ice Styx Dragon, wrath filled its eyes. The energy inside his body was ignited and he flashed to the Neo-Demon with an immense amount of black fire ready to be released from his beak.
The eyes of the Neo-Demon inside the Ice Styx Dragon were filled with killing intent but there was also a cunning light in them. She increased the amount of output of energy in her body despite the damage in her bloodline and commanded the creature to face the demon in front of it.
“ROOOAAARRR!” The Ice Styx Dragon roared as it swam through the poisonous lava. The energy that the Neo-Demon proportioned gathered in the maws of the creature.
When they were both less than five hundred meters away from each other, the attacks that they had been charging were released. From the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix’s beak, a pillar of black fire, hot enough to even burn lava, was shot while the Ice Styx Dragon generated a dragon breath that took the form of a cone of black frost.
Thunder and lightning were generated around the impact zone as the two extremely opposite powers clashed. One full of ice power along with toxic energy and another full of heat power along with destruction energy.
The black flames of the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix displayed their incredible power as they pushed back the dragon breath of the Ice Styx Dragon.
The eyes of the demon glowed as he pictured the body of the Ice Styx Dragon disintegrating under his flames. The Abyssfire Demon Phoenix slowly moved closer to his opponent, while he maintained his attack, pushing the head of the dragon back.
What he failed to notice was how the dragon’s tail did not move and the distance between the two decreased.
The demon’s eyes narrowed as he felt danger but it was too late.
The dragon tail that was full of spikes glowing with chaotic energy clashed on the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix’s back and it exploded releasing the power contained in nine Abyssal Blasts.
The Abyssfire Demon Phoenix released a cry of pain while the bones on his back cracked. The demon was thrown with such potency that he did not stop until he reached the deepest part of the magmatic chamber and clashed on the earth.
Sophia did not go after the injured demon, instead, she made the Ice Styx Dragon swim to the exit of the magmatic chamber. She even made the creature adopt its liquid state to increase its speed, despite the downgrade in its defenses.
In the place where the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix had landed, a terrifying black flame was formed and the eyes of the demon displayed an uncontrollable rage.
The truth was that the physical injuries he had received were unimportant and his bloodline was already mending them. The power in those Abyssal Blasts, however, generated great damage to his already wounded consciousness.
The pain the demon felt was so much that he did not care about trying to escape anymore. The only thing he wanted was to kill the woman, no matter the consequences. However, the moment the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix noticed how Sophia ran to the surface instead of taking advantage of his weakened state, confusion filled his mind.
After taking a moment to calm his rage, he used all the power of his consciousness to explore the surroundings and make sure this was not a ruse.
All of a sudden the eyes of the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix widened as he concentrated on the dark lava that filled the magmatic chamber. In the beginning, he just thought that the woman had transformed the lava into a poisonous substance that changed the battlefield to her favor, but now that the modification was completed, the demon realized what the lava had truly become.
Panic filled the Abyssfire Demon Phoenix’s eyes as he employed every ounce of energy he had to run to the surface.
His speed was impressive but while the dark lava hindered his movements, it was like water to a fish when it came to the Ice Styx Dragon. By the time the Abyssfire Phoenix had progressed half of the journey to the exit of the magmatic chamber, Sophia was already out.
The Ice Styx Dragon transformed into an ice cocoon that had hundreds of layers, with Sophia right in the center.
‘It would be better if I am completely out of the volcano, but that would give him enough time to escape the magmatic chamber. If this level of danger could make me hesitate, how could I be worthy of by his side?’ Determination filled Sophia’s eyes as she made a white pill drop from the cocoon into the dark lava.
A small shockwave can create a chain reaction inside a plastique explosive (C-4) that results in a detonation process with an explosive velocity dozens of times faster than the speed of sound.
The moment that the white pill touched the tons of dark lava, the same detonation process occurred. The entire magmatic chamber could be considered one giant plastique explosive.
