Chapter 1726 Sudden Confrontation! Against Pandemonium!
-----
I was barely able to follow his movements.
Without a doubt, Pandemonium was able to seamlessly manipulate s.p.a.ce and move through it with ease.
His presence, and his demonic aura, hit me like a truck when he appeared in front of me.
TRUUUM!
It felt like it was trying to suppress my body and make me kneel, it was such a tremendous pressure that at any moment, I would get crushed, splattered into the ground like a bug.
No…
Not anymore.
I am not as weak as before!
"Are you sure you want to settle things now?"
"Hah?! You dare talk back; you s.h.i.t?!"
With a furious, thug-like response that only a teenager delinquent would give to someone talking back to them, he furiously swung his fist towards me.
A fist capable of splitting a whole continent, his entire aura erupted, engulfing me as I found myself within a domain of infernal flames and countless demonic spirits roaring ferociously.
Everything came together in a display of tremendous, overwhelming power that could only be held by someone capable of destroying an entire world.
His fist suddenly became gigantic, in fact, his entire size augmented, and I became as little as an ant.
I felt my entire body freeze as I saw his fist rushing down.
"n.o.body that enters my Domain survives, fool," he said. "I"ll kill you now and be done with this!"
Pandemonium"s domain and his fist.
Capable of killing anything that he ever trapped inside?
Even the Primordial G.o.ds…
…
No, he"s not as strong as before either!
What he could do before… It"s not the same as what he can do now.
"And you think I"ll die so easily, Pandemonium?!"
With a ferocious roar, I stepped forward, my Venerable"s Enlightened Senses activated, as my surroundings transformed.
A bright silver and azure light surged from my entire body, the Laws of the World of Yggdrasil entering my body and empowering me.
This is the power of a Venerable!
Don"t look down on me anymore, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d.
I transformed into my Venerable Dragon Form, matching his t.i.tanic, aberrant demonic form composed of infernal flames and millions of demonic spirits.
And our fists met one another, generating a gigantic explosion, our Domains clashed, making s.p.a.ce itself tremble and distort, shattering like gla.s.s.
BOOOMMM!!!
"Nnnggh?!" Pandemonium"s demonic form groaned, showing his countless sharp teeth, he resembled a painting of ancient Oni, something you would only see in old j.a.panese paintings. "You…! That power…! H-How?!"
"I told you that you shouldn"t be looking down on me anymore, you delinquent b.a.s.t.a.r.d," I said, imbuing more and more power into my fist. "I have come this far… I won"t let you ruin everything I"ve built until now, PANDEMONIUM!"
With a furious roar, I opened my jaws, unleashing a devastating breath attack, he gasped, his chest transforming into the head of a red dragon and unleashing a breath attack as well.
BOOOM!
Two pa.s.sive beams clashed against one another, generating a huge explosion so strong it almost shattered our clashing domains again.
We were both pushed away a few kilometers, but that didn"t last too long, he quickly reached me from behind, moving through s.p.a.ce as seamlessly as before.
"You"re nothing!"
He grew eight gigantic, muscular, blazing arms, unleashing a barrage of fists that could destroy an entire continent if he wished so.
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM"
"UGH?! AAGGH!"
I felt immense pain across my entire body, my scales were destroyed, and my flesh was torn apart, countless holes spreading across my body, as my blood splattered everywhere.
"Hahahah! You"re too weak still, Drake! TOO WEAK!"
"You think so…?"
As half my face was splattered into pieces, a second later, my entire body was back together.
"Eh?!"
He couldn"t help but gasp in disbelief, my regeneration was no longer "procedural" where you would see it working as limbs and everything regrow from the cells.
It was near instant.
"Did you say something?! I couldn"t hear you well!"
I rushed forward, my draconic claws overflowing with the power of my Ascendancy Law, as I conjured my abilities, golden and black armor covering my body.
"{Divinity Core Ability}: {Holy Abyssal Dungeon Armor}!"
"An armor?! As if that would ever protect you!"
With a furious roar, Pandemonium conjured six blazing swords out of his domain"s infernal flames and demonic spirits, swinging them against me.
"I"ll cut you down to pieces!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
His attacks were tremendously strong, as a storm of slashing attacks imbued with infernal blazing flames, which could split the heavens apart, befell upon me.
Yet…
CLANK!
"What?!"
His eyes widened as he saw my armor taking no damage, and blocking all his swords, which only bounced off as they hit me.
Just as I thought.
I smiled, I allowed myself to be the c.o.c.ky one for once.
"Look how the tables have turned, motherf.u.c.ker."
"That armor, what is it made of- GUH?!"
CRAAASH!
I didn"t waste time, punching his hideous face with my fists covered on my armor, forming a ma.s.sive gauntlet. Half his face was destroyed instantly as he fell into the ground with a huge explosion of light and darkness coming from my armor.
BOOOM!
"I"ll take you down now!"
I rushed towards him, about to conjure my abilities.
However.
FLASH!
He appeared above me, suddenly, and completely regenerated too.
"DIE!"
All his blades came down at once, alongside spears, axes, and hammers this time. He now had over twenty arms, all of them attacking me at once.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
CLAAANK!
However, no damage whatsoever.
This is my opportunity; I have to somehow deal permanent damage on him while he"s still trying to figure out how to harm my armor.
This is my chance!
"GLUTTONY!"
With a furious draconic roar, I summoned the power of Gluttony, combining it with my armor, as countless golden and black colored metallic jaws surged from my entire body, rushing towards Pandemonium.
"Hah! As if I would let you do that!"
He teleported away before the jaws could reach him, and then a gigantic spear made of flames rushed towards me, hitting my back.
CRAAASH!
CLANK!
No damage either!
He still has not figured it out.
"COME HERE!"
I rushed once more towards him, this time using my powers to also manipulate s.p.a.ce.
I had yet to even try doing this properly but…
Screw it!
