Chapter 934 Pheonix Vs Dragon
These colossal figures represented the embodiment of the Fire and Ice elements, their presence commanding awe and fear.
The isolated battlefield, encompassing the entire 5-kilometer radius, became a stage for this epic clash of elemental forces. The ground trembled beneath the weight of their immense forms, cracks forming in the earth as they took their first steps.
The Fire elemental Pheonix blazed with fiery brilliance, its colossal form wreathed in roaring flames that licked at the air. Its very presence exuded an overwhelming heat that caused the surrounding landscape to smolder and char.
Opposite it, the Ice elemental Dragon stood, emanating an aura of bone-chilling cold from his wings. Frost and ice encased its massive figure, glistening in the ambient light. As it moved, the ground beneath its feet froze, leaving a trail of icy destruction in its wake.
As the two titanic beings locked eyes, a palpable tension filled the air. It was a battle of opposing elements, a clash of raw power that threatened to reshape the very fabric of the battlefield.
The sky darkened with swirling clouds, as if reflecting the elemental turmoil about to unfold.
With each step the Dragon took, the ground quaked and trembled, sending shockwaves through the battlefield.
"Hey hey! You're a descendant of Roc who looks like a peacock.
Why is your transformed form a Pheonix?" he asked nonchalantly.
"Are you having an identity crisis? Stick with your character's background setting, will you?" spoke Atreus in an admonishing tone.
"You bastard, you're a Fenrirborne. Why is your transformation a Dragon?" asked Speki.
And with a kind and friendly smile, Kahn casually replied…
"Because 'Fuck You!', that's why!"
Shoot!
Like a cannonball, the Ice Dragon shot forth towards the Phoenix, assisted by massive Ice pillars that launched themselves like spears at the enemy.
SHRILL!
The piercing sound, like a high-pitched crescendo, filled the air as Speaki unleashed a devastating attack akin to a firey laserbeam, harnessing the full force of his abilities.
ROAR!!
In response, the Ice Dragon let out a mighty roar, a primal and thunderous sound that reverberated with power and dominance. The roar carried an undertone of challenge and defiance, a declaration of his unwavering resolve to confront and overcome his opponent.
Instead of dodging this superbeam attack by the Pheonix, the Dragon charged in front of it, facing the full brunt of it head-on.
BOOM!!
The clash of Fire and Ice reverberated through the air, a symphony of elemental fury that resonated with a power beyond mortal comprehension.
The clash between Atreus and Speki reverberated through the pocket dimension, its impact shaking the very fabric of their surroundings. The air crackled with energy as their powers collided, creating a symphony of shrill and roaring sounds that echoed through the sky.
The clash between these two formidable beings intensified as their powers clashed, their immense strength and determination on full display.
The sky became a battleground of explosions and shockwaves, the shrill and the roar intertwining in a symphony of raw power.
Everyone just became a spectator in this dazzling battle of two ginormous creatures as Red and Blue lights flashed and blinded their sights.
----------------
As the battle raged on, the sudden transformation of Atreus into an Ice elemental dragon left those present in a state of bewilderment. The origins of this newfound form remained a mystery to the onlookers, but there was no time for questions or speculation amidst the chaotic clash.
Little did they know that the answer to Atreus' transformation lay in the 5 Combat Techniques taught to him by Romulus.
Among these techniques, the first two were known as Harnessing and Conceptualization.
The journey to master these 2 techniques had been arduous and fraught with challenges.
Atreus had faced countless trials and experienced death itself more than 20,000 times in his pursuit of mastery. Through sheer determination and unwavering commitment, he had persevered, unlocking the true potential of Harnessing and Conceptualization.
Initially, it was believed that these techniques were limited to the manipulation and enhancement of weapons.
However, Atreus had discovered that they resonated far beyond the realm of weaponry because one day, they found an unusual effect.
Driven by curiosity and a desire to understand the weaknesses of his enemies, Kahn sought knowledge from Vildred, the Sage of Preservation, on the weaknesses of the Summoner class.
In his pursuit of understanding, Kahn attempted to summon elemental creatures but found himself unsuccessful.
However, under the guidance of the Lightning Dragon Emperor, he discovered a new path.
With the accumulated world energy enveloping him, Kahn sought to encase himself within its embrace, aiming to take on the form of a dragon.
To his surprise, the dormant Draconian bloodline within Kahn's body responded on its own, resonating with his transformation attempt.
At that moment, a revelation unfolded before him - he possessed the ability to temporarily transform into an elemental dragon, choosing the very element he desired to embody.
The transformation, however, came with limitations. As the Draconian bloodline within Kahn's body was incomplete, he could only sustain his dragon form for a mere 10 minutes.
In addition to his ability to transform into an Ice elemental dragon, Kahn now possessed the capacity to assume the forms of other powerful beings, including a Basilisk, a Fenrir, and a Primordial Titan.
Each transformation allowed him to harness the unique strengths and abilities associated with these extraordinary creatures while choosing the element at his own will such as becoming a Darkness Dragon or even an Ice Fenrir.
However, during this particular encounter, Kahn chose to manifest his Ice elemental dragon form. This decision was rooted in practicality and strategic thinking, as it aligned with his Ice elemental Brawler class and complimented his renowned attack, the Azure Dragon Fist.
By assuming the form of an Ice elemental dragon, he could wield his signature techniques seamlessly, while drawing upon the power and attributes of his chosen element.
Opting for the Ice elemental dragon form also had an additional benefit - it allowed Kahn to maintain a level of familiarity and reduce suspicion.
Unlike his Fenrir bloodline, which he had not publicly showcased during the Tribal Tourney, his reputation as an Ice elemental Brawler who could use Azure Dragon Fist skill was already established.
Thus, transforming into an Ice elemental dragon would appear less out of place or raise unnecessary questions about his abilities.
Kahn's strategic approach demonstrated his keen understanding of the importance of perception and how his choices would influence others' perceptions of him.
By aligning his transformations with his established skills and reputation, he maintained a sense of consistency and minimized potential scrutiny.
As Kahn embraced his Ice elemental dragon form, the culmination of his Ice elemental Brawler class and his inherent Draconian bloodline merged, enhancing his combat prowess and amplifying his icy attacks.
So in simple words, Kahn was at the level of a beginner 6th-stage saint instead of a 5th-stage saint unlike everyone thought.
And thus, the difference in strength and skills between him and Speki was already akin to a child and a grown-up.
As for what kind of punishment would Kahn give this new colleague of his…
No one was prepared for it.
