Chapter 928 Aion Vs Lith (II)



"Heaven's Rain!"

Those words echoed across the arena as hundreds of spears made of ice flashed at superluminal speed toward Aion. 

None of the ice spears moved in a straight pattern, and many hid in the shadow of the others, making them virtually invisible. And that was not all since they unleashed a frozen domain that fell from the sky and sealed space-time. 

Aion stared at the rain of ice spears coming at him, and the calm smile on his face did not change as he adopted a martial stance. It was the same one he used when facing Zaphirox, which caused great confusion for the people seeing him. 

Such a random martial stance would typically not work in a battle of this level, with life forms moving their bodies according to the power of the laws. The fact that Aion made it work against Zaphirox was shocking, but it could not possibly help him face a rain of hundreds of ice spears falling from the sky.

Finally, the first ice spear reached the young man, and under the shocked sight of everybody in the coliseum, Aion touched the projectile with the tip of his finger before redirecting and sending it flying away.

"BOOOM!"

The ice spear clashed in a distant part of the arena, freezing everything in a ten thousand-meter radius. It was clear that its power was more than enough to damage a Low World's foundation severely.

A sense of absolute shock appeared in the heart of the people seeing Aion, and it only grew as the young man went on and deflected the more than one thousand ice spears that simultaneously fell from the sky at superluminal speed.

"¡BOOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!"

Each of those spears generated a blast of ice that soon covered the ground in the entire arena. Still, despite all their power, Heaven's Rain did nothing to harm Aion.

Noah was watching the battle, and his Samsara Eye worked at full power as he attempted to see the key behind Aion's strength, but no matter how hard he pushed it, he only saw the young man touching the spear and sending it away.

The other geniuses were also doing their best to figure out Aion's abilities, but none obtained a better answer than Noah.

If the geniuses watching the battle felt frustrated, one could only imagine how Lith was feeling right now. Heaven's Rain was one of her most powerful attacks, yet Aion treated it like nothing.

A silver flame appeared in Lith's eyes as her willpower helped her focus her emotions. She understood that if she were to lose herself to rage and frustration, her fate would be the same as Zaphirox's.

The young Fallen took a deep breath as she clasped her hands, making the ice that covered the ground tremble.

Thousands of ice chains with spiked ends emerged from the frozen floor and flashed toward Aion. They were fast and could blend with the ground, reappearing in any part of the arena instantly, but Aion did not have a problem dodging them.

Lith split her mind into two trains of thought, one in command of the chains, while the other constantly generated ice spears that fell from the sky toward Aion.

Even dodging those thousand chains, Aion had no problem redirecting the ice spears.

Noah, Beelzebub, Sirik, Athea, and all the other geniuses could not help but clench their fists as they saw how Aion moved across the arena. A single wrong step would trap him in a sea of ice chains and spears, but it was clearer by the second that there was no way the young man would lose the fight due to a mistake.

Every time an ice spear exploded, it increased the power of the frozen energy in the ground, generating more chains. Yet, despite the chain covering the entire arena, they could not touch Aion.

Lith's expression grew maniacal as she kept sending her attacks, draining more and more energy. Her face was pale, and it seemed her emotions got the best of her.

However, just as the ice chains had practically overwhelmed the arena, Lith's expression changed to pure serenity as she clasped her hands.

"Ice Hell!"

Lith's voice echoed across the coliseum as her ice chains stopped moving before transforming into giant walls extending to the sky, leaving Aion in the center.

Aion was surrounded by the giant ice walls, leaving a space with a radius less than ten meters wide for him to move. The only way to escape would be to either break them or rise to the sky and fly over.

The ice walls seemed incredibly resilient, and flying to the sky would leave him open to attack from above and beneath. 

Lith did not plan to test Aion's ingenuity. The instant she trapped the young man, she raised her arms, channeled the cold energy spread across the arena, and used what little she had left inside her body to prepare her final attack.

The image of a majestic dragon with dozens of Fallen wings and a large horn made of blue plasma appeared above Lith's head. 

"Fallen Zero Dragon: Spear of Ultimate Stillness!"

The mighty dragon flashed forward, fitting perfectly in the four-by-four space left by the ice walls that contained Aion.

When Noah and the other geniuses saw that, they could not help but stare at the young Fallen with respect and admiration. She made it seem like she had lost control, only to set a trap for Aion. 

Even if Aion were to divert the spell, he would not be able to escape the explosion. There was no way to avoid Lith's final attack!

Aion looked at the mighty dragon coming at him, and a solemn expression appeared on his face for the first time in the entire fight. 

The change in the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage gave Lith hope, but all that faded the next second.

Under the amazed and thunderstruck sight of everybody in the entire Daybreak Universe, Aion touched the dragon's horn with his index and middle finger, making it vanish!
