Chapter 324 - Winner Of The Battle

More men started to fall from the poison. The strange poison that was harnessed from the poison fruit and hidden around the lands before them was somehow more potent. Never before has Heralcus seen such a poison master create a concoction that could affect an entire army like this.

There was no time to hesitate. Heralcus shouted in great rage and ordered everyone to attack. The burned poison fruit would soon even affect Captains, making the slow and could even slightly affect the Champions.

"Siege cultivators! Shoot your strongest attack into the inside of the cave! Everyone charge exactly right after!" Heralcus ordered.

Massive Force and Magic attacks were harnessed by the Siege cultivators who were using strange devices, and it shot out towards the entrance of the cave.

But as it shot inside, no explosions were heard.

A few seconds later, the attacks they sent in were suddenly traveling back to them!

"Neteri!" Heralcus ordered.

Neteri called out the soul army, which was now within her, and a massive arm appeared and blocked the attacks.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"What was that? They sent the attack back!"

"It was that dragon of theirs. I saw its mouth open within the darkness." Heralcus answered.

"We must attack now!" Several massive skeletons appeared near Heralcus. Each of them had the powers equal to a Commander!

"Attack now!" Heralcus ordered, and they all charged into the cave.

Neteri did the same as the soul of her army infused in her to make herself stronger. The massive soul shrunk and compressed itself to go back to her original size. But the power of her punch would reach the levels of a Cardinal.

Shellcross released his own massive Force energy, and his form grew larger, turning over five meters tall. The power of the Okto-Khefali mixed with his Force energy and increased the defensive abilities of his wall that would make it equal to the Cardinals.

Qara transformed to her dragon form. It was only slightly larger than her human form, and the appearance of her head looked closer to the Okto-Khefali.

Darako turned into a massive dark being, and the entire area around them turned darker as creeping darkness shot towards the cave.

Everyone charged forward as the desperate situation dictated the need to do so.

Heralcus was at the forefront, and a small head of the Okto-Khefali appeared on top of him. The ice mixed in with the creeping darkness, and it shot through the land.

Various explosions erupted at the front as the darkness and ice attacked the energy conversions circles planted in numerous places within the tunnel. Even the ceiling of the cave had energy formation circles.

At that point, the entire Temple could finally be seen. It had walls that were fortified, and a strange light barrier covered it. Several three-meter golems full of light energy were standing and began to point their arms as it shot out several white beams.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The attacks were blocked as Shellcross deployed his flaming Force wall.

"Archers!" Martha shouted.

And the archers around the Temple shot their Force and Magic enforced arrows even though they were quite a distance away.

The arrows flew, and a massive energy conversion circle appeared on the skies above as the arrows were loosed.

The arrows passed through the circle, and suddenly we were all full of water elements!

"Eredus!" Heralcus sensed it. The Water Core from the head of the Okto-Khefali was being used as a source to create the energy.

The water arrows flew and began to explode around the Force Wall that Shellcross set up. The archers didn't stop, and more and more were being released.

"Entropy Cannon!" Kyros ordered.

Mardock, the Entropy Golem, took the stage once more. Several energy formation circles were around him.

"I've been outclassed and have become useless and need to grow stronger. But at last, in this fight, I can be of help!" Mardock raised his hands as the energy of True Enropy gathered around him.

BLAST!

A beam of Entropy shot out towards the Fire Wall.

BOOM!

"Those brats!" Shellcross raged as he could feel the power of his shield weaken.

"Hold your wall, Shellcross!" Heralcus ordered. He didn't dare tell his other commanders to defend as they were expecting heavier bombardments.

Heralcus knew that there would be the Temple's [Holy Beam] and the meteor attack, and he planned each of the other Commanders to take on those attacks. This was their plan.

The creeping darkness and ice that spread on the floor crashed on the Holy Barrier of the Temple.

"Prepare the [Meteor Doom]!" Kyros ordered.

The Wings of the Nephilim assumed a formation around the Temple, and a massive energy formation circle formed once more.

Mechiel stood at the top of the wall and closed her eyes.

Several powerful elements appeared and gathered around her. The mages and all who could cast magic added their contribution.

"Impossible! That's the Celestial Code! They are using it to create Astra's Code!" Neteri was shocked as she saw how two codes were working together.

Deep inside the core of the Temple, apart from Calaminus's Time Core, the Earth Core and the Water Core from the Okto-Khefali were there. Again, the power of water was used, and this time, the Earth's power was being harnessed.

The star energy formed, and the Earth energy was added to increase the density of the attacks. The power of this attack was even a little stronger and more refined compared to the ones that Eredus faced. The Enlightenment Chamber had increased the understanding of everyone who entered and was able to gain understanding and

"Darako! Qara! Block that attack! Neteri! Concentrate your power, and let us launch an all-out attack to destroy that [Holy Barrier]! If we weaken it, then the Nephilim can't attack the [Holy Beam]!"

"Yes, Lord Cardinal!" The Commanders nodded.

All the Champions joined forces and divided themselves according to their plans. Each Champion was supporting a Commander, adding and harmonizing their Force or Magic to increase the power of each Commanders.

The massive Elemental Wheel finally condensed, and several chunks of rocks began to float above the Temple.

"Fire! [Meteor Doom]!" Demerus shouted, and everyone shouted the Word of Power and launched the meteors.

Qara and Darako charged forward, moved beyond the Fire Wall of Shellcross, and used their powers.

Wind and Dark elements created a path that threw the incoming meteors off course. Since the attacks were more condensed, Heralcus schemed to redirect it instead of blocking it.

With the wind and dark energy creating a current that led all the way to the exit of the tunnel, the two then created a massive wind and dark dome that protected everyone.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The meteors didn't make direct contact with the dome but veered off and struck sides ceiling, and some even flew further out to the exit.

The dust hadn't yet settled when Neteri and Heralcus charged out, and both were using tremendous soul power.

"Die!" Heralcus and Neteri both flew and prepared their attack on the Holy Barrier.

"Abandon the walls!" Mezal ordered as his horrified expression was shown.

Every quickly jumped off the wall as the power of Ice and Entropy approached.

Decay and Preservation. These two could not have worked with each other. But with the power of Destiny, they were granted various powers that allowed the two contrasting powers to merge into one.

BOOM!

A massive explosion occurred and created a massive eradicating power that created frost that turned to ashes.

The Holy Barrier was no more, and the massive walls that stood in front of the Temple were nowhere to be seen. Various massive stones and rocks that looked like the ruins of the Temple itself remained. It was frozen and slowly disintegrated and broke as the powerful ice reached the core. A massive crater with the ground itself cracking and breaking from the powerful ice was seen with Heralcus and Neteri standing in the middle. And the ice began to affect the entire underground region causing the mountain above to collapse.

"Nephilim! I am the winner of this battle!" Heralcus shouted in triumph.
