Chapter 689 Satan V Regus
[ BLACK APOSTLE ]
The move that Satan had chosen as his ultimate attack was a dual nature move containing both darkness and void element components.
The second he triggered it, a beam of darkness enveloped his entire body and seemed to shoot towards the sky, breaking past the physical boundaries set for the dimensional battlefield and creating a dimensional rift.
For a full 100 kilometres radius, all mortal troops felt a crippling pressure befall them, as they all crumbled to their knees while the weaker tier 1-3 troops even passed out in a blink of an eye. ｂｅ𝚍𝚗ｏｖｅ𝚕．𝚗𝚎𝚝
Even tier 6 god’s felt the pressure of the move and felt a slight difficulty in breathing as they stopped their fighting and turned their heads to see what was the source of their discomfort.
In the near vicinity of the whole battlefield where Satan and Regus were fighting, only Rhea and the highest level of dragon’s were the one who continued to fight as if they did not care, while the battle amongst millions of ground troops was halted.
All eyes were unilaterally trained on the horn-headed sovereign and the attack he was about to unleash.
Shockingly, after the pillar of darkness extended to its peak radius, Satan began quickly compressing it into a small ball.
If Max was here to witness this move he would have undoubtedly been dumbfounded, as he first hand understood the difficulty behind compression type moves.
Yet, Satan was not performing fire compression of an inferno spell with the help of a divine Astra, but rather compressing a darkness + void type spell that extended for kilometres!
The entire battlefield watched with bated breaths as Satan’s muscles began bulging to their extreme point.
Nerves began exploding out of his skin and his face looked so strained that it seemed like he would pass away any second.
Yet despite the difficulty, Satan managed to compress the pillar of darkness to a ball the size of a big boulder before pushing it towards Regus with great velocity.
As soon as the move began moving towards Regus, it changed its form from a ball to a winged angel riding a horse and holding a lance, as that figure lowered it’s lance and pointed it towards Regus before dashing towards the vampire monarch.
Regus only had a couple of seconds to unleash his move at this point, because if he took any longer to counter, he would be hit by Satan’s move and that would be the end for Regus no matter how strong his armour or vitality was.
But it was precisely at this moment that Regus’s eyes began to shine with conviction as he let out a breath of steamy air and mouthed the words-
[ Ixtal’s Supremacy ]
Slashing his sword which was glowing and vibrating uncontrollably, Regus opened a dimensional portal in the space between himself and Satan’s incoming move.
Just like Satan’s attack, Regus’s move too fractured the very fabric of space-time and opened a 100 metres tall dimensional rift, from which blasted out a beam of pure cosmic energy that contained the power of chaos.
Ixtal’s Supremacy was Regus’s special move and it worked similar to Rudra’s elite blast in principle for the fact that it borrowed power from outer space and channelled it to create a powerful blast, however, Regus’s attack was much more powerful as instead of channelling mana, it channelled pure chaos energy, the kind that could destroy realms and distort the laws governing the universe.
The second his beam of energy met against Satan’s black apostle, a massive explosion rattled the entire dimensional battlefield, completely obliterating the terrain surrounding the two monarchs and creating a literal hole in the ground below as the attack carved the dimensional battlefield apart creating a 2 km radius hole.
*KABOOOOM*
The shockwave that resulted from the attack knocked god level dragon’s out of the sky and even Rhea and the other tier8 dragons were forced to halt their intense battle for a few moments as they stabilised their flight against the powerful shock-waves that threatened to sweep them away.
Tier4 and 5 troops began to pass-out under the pressure, their bodies tumbling on the ground and being blown away as if they weighed as much as grains of sand, as everything in the near vicinity was completely cleared out.
The laws of the universe began to fluctuate as countless spacial rifts, gravity wells and time loops began popping up in the area surrounding the clash.
Monarchs all across the Dimensional Battlefield, irrespective of how far away felt the residual energy of the attack and felt their hearts flutter as they turned their heads in the direction of the clash.
As if the first wave was not violent enough, the explosions continued to periodically happen as extremely powerful shock-waves continued to ripple out at 10 second intervals.
If one wanted to understand just how powerful the shockwave resulting from this clash was, they only needed to look at the before and after of the Dimensional Battlefield map to understand it’s effects.
A gaping hole was created in its crater, and in an area which was supposed to be a desert with tall sand dunes and kilometres of barren black sand, there was not a single grain of sand visible in sight as it was all blown away, stripped till the base rock below which was solid granite.
Yet while the mortal troops unconscious like flies and the gods were forced to grit their teeth and endure as they awaited the final result of the clash, there was one old man who stood unfazed a few kilometres off the site of explosion with his arms crossed and his eyes focused.
Not a bead of sweat dripped off his forehead to show that he was under any sort of duress, nor was his face contorted to show that he was in discomfort.
He stood stoic and expressionless as he absorbed the principal’s behind the attacks unleashed by both monarchs, trying to figure if he could make them his own.
