Chapter 858 Beyond Redemption

Chapter 858 Beyond Redemption

Bavuma did not want to risk seeing what Max was truly capable of once he realised how abnormal he was.

Technically, a tier7 should never be able to threaten a peak tier8 warrior like himself who was able to kill a celestial, however, Bavuma did not want to risk it.

[ Gravity Suppression ]

[ Gravity Pull ]

[ Gravity Crush ]

Bavuma unleashed three gravity based attacks on Max, however, he simply used [ Void Neutralisation ] to counter all three.

Meanwhile, Drax who was completely outside Max's primal domain, was long preparing a worthy assault move as he prepared Angakok's ultimate attack, the [ Shaman God's Revenge ] to unleash upon Bavuma.

Unlike Max, Bavuma for some reason could not read Drax's mind.

Perhaps it was because he wasn't an actual sentient thinking being? Or perhaps it was because Drax's thinking core was actually inside Max's body and not inside the clone as Bavuma read nothing when he glanced at Drax.

This made fighting the old A.I. slightly trickier for Bavuma as after years of growing so reliant on using the mind reader in his fighting style, he struggled without it.

" I don't think he can read our thoughts, and I'm sure he can't read our internal discussions either.

If that's truly the case then I think we can trick him Max " Drax said in Max's mind as Max nodded in solidarity.

" NOW- " Drax gave the command, as Max used [ Space Bind ] to completely restrict Bavuma's movements.

At the same time, Drax unleashed the Shaman God's Revenge, aimed directly for Bavuma's head.

" Puny moves... " Bavuma commented as he easily broke free from Max's restraints and proceeded to block Drax's attack with nothing but his bare hands as if it were nothing.

Not only did he block the attack completely, but he also converted the energy of the attack into a ball of darkness which he then redirected towards Max.

[ Void Neutralisation ]

Max blocked the incoming ball of Darkness using Void Neutralisation with ease which made Bavuma click his tongue.

Although Void Neutralisation wasn't as flashy as his other moves, it was the ultimate defensive move and any experienced warrior could see it's worth.

To so effortlessly neutralise a sphere made of pure darkness, it's defensive nature was extremely strong and Bavuma had to acknowledge the functionality of Max's move-set.

" Nice tricks, but play time's over now " Bavuma said as he fully unleashed his peak tier8 aura against Max which pushed his soul vessel to go into overdrive as to not be suppressed within his own soul-space.

' I'll break this domain of his and then show him what true speed means ' Bavuma thought, as Max could see this block of text float over his head.

Raising both his arms, Bavuma mixed fire with water to create steam bullets and fired them rapidly towards Max.

[ Wind Wall ]

By creating a wind wall in his domain, Max effortlessly blocked the bullets, however, he underestimated the treachery of Bavuma.

' Now as he blocks the steam bullets, I shall overwhelm him with attacks of every single element ' Max read over Bavuma's head as the God Of Knowledge started an all-out brawl against Max.

The steam bullets were only a distraction as his real play was to unleash lots of attacks in fast succession, increasing the cost of operating the domain for Max, until he felt it was overwhelming.

[ Fire Storm ]

[ Earth Lance Barrage ]

[ Water Dance ]

[ Wind Hurricane ]

[ Gravity Crush ]

[ Spatial Distortion ]

[ Time acceleration ]

[ Darkness Bind ]

[ Void Nesting ]

[ Chaos Blast ]

From all 360°, Bavuma unleashed a barrage of tier6 attacks or stronger as if it were nothing, completely cornering Max as a cornered mouse.

If Max wanted to, he could counter all these attacks using his domain, however, the cost of such a large scale counter operation would leave a gaping hole in his divine essence reserves.

If he could do it once, Bavuma was determined to unleash this same barrage twice, then thrice and keep it going until Max ran out of divine essence, which was why Max needed a more creative solution to this problem.

Cancelling out the primal domain, Max activated [ Constant Regeneration ] as he extended his arms and let all the attacks hit himself at once.

If it were not enough, Max used [ Hydro Pulse ] and [ Inferno ] of his own volition as his goal was to create as large of an explosion as possible to distort Bavuma's vision for however long the resulting mist would afford him.

" Accepting your fate? How boring " Bavuma commented as he felt dissapointed in Max's choice to commit suicide, as he turned his attention to Drax who was lurking in the distance.

Playing his part perfectly, Drax lured Bavuma into a fight against him by activating [ Subconscious Offence ] which turned him into the best offensive fighter that a tier7 being could achieve.

If there was any lingering doubt that Bavuma might read Max's mind, it was gone now as with his attention fully focused on Drax, with the Haze of explosions around him, it was almost a guarantee that Max was going to have a moment's peace to think.

" Your fighting style is different from that of your real body. It's almost like you have a mind of your own.... I can't even read your thoughts, what exactly are you? " Bavuma questioned as he weaved and dodged through Drax's attacks while constantly pressuring him with an offensive of his own.

Drax had no intentions to reveal his identity to Bavuma yet, however, since Max needed some more time to gather his thoughts, Drax decided to humour Bavuma.

" I'm an A.I. created by a soul you betrayed and killed through deceit. My name is Drax and I was created by my Lord Agni with the sole purpose of killing you someday, " Drax said with hatred evident in his voice as Bavuma's pupils constricted after listening to his story.

Initially, Drax mistook it for shock, however, when Bavuma burst out laughing, Drax understood that the old god was beyond redemption. n-(0vELb1n
