Chapter 1360 Hidden Plot [3]
Damien hadn't had a chance to test his power in the Heavenly World yet, so he was definitely excited for this fight.
He did beat up a bunch of young geniuses, but that wasn't much of a test for him. It was more to see what the standard for geniuses was in the region.
He couldn't use the majority of his power in public yet, so he had been eagerly awaiting a moment like this.
And now that it had come, why would he hold back?
He slammed his foot into the ground with such force that the sand below was directly melted into particles of glass. He shot forward with the same intensity, approaching the chimera before it could even try to take the first move.
The chimera was massive. Its head was the size of a two-story building by itself, and the size of the rest of its body could be imagined. Damien arrived under its chin in an instant and punched upward with extreme force, lacing the Law of Destruction into his mana as he did so.
BOOM!
Its head was snapped back with such force that the rest of its body toppled over. It used its wings to regain its balance, but Damien was already gone, high above its head with his hands together.
BOOOOOOOM!
A beam of reddish-black energy struck down like a pillar from heaven and burned into the chimera's back, slamming it into the ground.
It opened its mouth to roar in pain, and its scorpion tail whipped through the air to force Damien away, but its attacks were futile.
After all, no matter how restricted he was, Damien was still a spatial practitioner.
How could the speed of a blind tail match his?
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Damien teleported all around the chimera and barraged it with beams of destruction. Once its skin was torn, he pushed in and dug his mana into the wounds, using his laws to make sure they'd never heal.
He tried to use Destruction exclusively. It was both because of the decision he made in the previous days, and because he wanted to train this affinity that he was naturally born with.
As for why Damien chose Destruction out of all his laws?
It was because Destruction was rare, but not absolutely unique.
But...
Why did it have to be like this?
Why did it have to run into another monster out of nowhere?!
It tried to attack.
It used the height of its physical capabilities, the power granted to it by the combination of traits that created it. It used its laws, a twisted version of Fire Laws that was specifically designed for chimeras.
No matter how weak it seemed now, it couldn't be underestimated. It was a powerful Demigod that could cause mayhem if it was let out of the Vanishing Dunes.
It was a shame that it found itself facing an even greater monster.
That monster didn't give it a chance to shine at all. That monster made it look like some weak cannon fodder that had no business being an altar guardian.
Because that monster was enjoying himself greatly.
Damien explored every bit of Destruction Law he could in this battle.
He transformed it into thousands of different forms, caused physical and ethereal damage, attacked the mind, twisted the environment, and even affected the high heavens to cause phenomena that he then controlled to attack.
The chimera was definitely unresigned to dying like this, but at the same time, it didn't think it would ever find a better way to die.
The swirling colors, the twisted laws, the fractured environment...
When put together in the eyes of a beast that had never left its territory, it created a beautiful picture of chaos unlike anything the world had ever produced.
The chimera fought to its last breath. It accepted that it couldn't win, but it still wanted to fight.
To prove that its attempts to become strong weren't in vain.
And as Damien entertained the beast and allowed it to relish in its last moments, their battle came to an end.
He stood on its head with a pitch-black sword of energy stabbed directly through its eyes. The beast was already dead, and only he remained.
"Haha..." he laughed quietly, clenching his fist and unsummoning the sword.
"Good battle."The link to the origin of this information rests in n0v3lb!n★
