~Bang-Bang_Bang~

The world was extremely bright as the sun shone above the Sky of Egul Continent. Currently, in the depths of the Dark Forest, there seemed to be two monsters fighting. The two fought untill the earth was cracked and the sun lost its splendor, crushing trees and shattering mountains.

At this moment, Shad's body was struck flying away by a punch into a huge pine tree that splintered into multiple pieces by the impact. His entire body was covered with blood from head to toes. However, his opponent was not any better as a huge gaping hole could be seen on his right leg and stomach.

Shad slowly got up from the ground and spat out a mouthful blood. His eyes became bright as he channeled the red lightning energy within his body which started to heal all of his internal injuries and his broken bones.

" Hahaha, My guess was right. So this is one of your special power, Purple lightning seed." Shouted Shad as he was laughing like a maniac. At this moment, he was truly happy despite looking so bloody.

A few weeks ago, when Shad had fused with the Eye of the Red Lightning Dragon Emperor and knew about its abilities and the other Lightning Dragons, Shad began to wonder about the special abilities of the purple Lightning seed within his infinite space.

He knew that the Purple Lightning seed was related to that mysterious man that had killed and refined all of the nine powerful lightning dragons into weapons.

Aside from the fact that it was able to refine all the energy he absorbed into lightning and was able to heal his injuries and strengthen his body, Shad didn't know much about it.

Nonetheless, despite knowing only these three things about the purple lightning seed, he was still satisfied and wanted to get the best out of each ability or strengthen them if possible.

One of the things he was most curious about was the healing and the strengthening abilities of the purple lightning seed. He wanted to find out at what extent would the purple lightning seed be able to heal and strengthen his body.

And today, he was able to test that theory while battling that huge Earth Destroying Battle Ape which gave him a huge surprise.

Compared to the humans, Shad preferred battling powerful magical beasts to test his theory or make his own experiment. Magical beasts relied on direct confrontation, as such, it was easier to activate the hidden potential or the abilities of the purple lightning seed within his infinite space in terms of both healing and strengthing his body at the same time.

While battling the giant Ape, he did not use any technique or magic spell, he was confronting him with the pure force of the collisions of his physical body or his physical strength. It was a battle to see who had the strongest body.

If it wasn't for that, he wouldn't have found out that not only the purple lightning seed could heal his injuries like it used to, but as his wounds heal, the regenerated tissues became tougher than before, generating new organs, and creating new functions within his body. It made his body tougher than ever, a body more finely tuned for physical combat.

It's like while he was engaging in a direct confrontation type of battle with the beast, his body continued transforming and became more powerful and tougher after recuperating from a heavy injury. The purple lightning seed was even able to connect some of his broken bones from his rib cage along with his muscles. However, the process was excruciating.

His self-recovery ability was exceedingly fast and as he frequently got injured while battling the giant Ape, it got faster.

Shad was ecstatic after witnessing that, he knew that as he gets stronger, his self-recovery ability would increase or get stronger as well. Maybe when he reaches a certain level, he could even cure broken limbs.

" That's not enough, come again." Shad crazily scream as he rushed like an angry wolf towards the giant Ape. Each of his steps crushed the earth, leaving a deep foot imprint behind.

To the Earth Destroying Battle Ape, Shad's attitude was provocative and he was challenging its honor. It was a giant magical beast that used its strong body and its unbreakable defense and tough skin to destroy its enemy.

With just one foot, he could destroy a small mountain and with his bare hands, he could uproot every single tree within the forest, yet this puny human dare to compete with him in physical strength.

Bang! bang! Bang!

The Giant Ape rushed to meet Shad as well. However, its speed was very slow and each footstep it made shook the ground. Walking toward Shad, it could still feel the pain inflicted by him in their previous exchanges.

Rawwrrr!

As the giant ape got very close to Shad, with another roar, it threw down a powerful punch that was descending like a hammer trying to nail Shad onto the ground or turned him into meat paste.

With his lightning speed, Shad quickly dodged the incoming punch by moving aside. Then jumped into the air as he put every ounce of his physical strength into his right hand as he threw a powerful punch at giant ape's head.

This time, the moment his fist made contact with the head of the battle ape. It was like a mountain ramming into another one. Blood sprayed everywhere as the giant ape was pushed back destroying several the nearby trees.

Awwrr! The Earth Destroying battle Ape let out a miserable cry that reverberated through the air before it rushed back towards Shad again.

The large battle Ape was not willing to lose to an ant, so it started to disregard its injuries as it concentrated more into the offense.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In short amount of time, the exchanged many blows. If the Lightning Corps and the four generals along with the girls were there to see this, their eyes would drop to the floor due to this spectacular sight. One man and one beast, fighting each other in the depths of the dark forest without break. Not using any magical spells or technique, only their body.

The low-level and mid-level magical beasts had long cleared out the area leaving the two monsters to clash against one another. Even the Lightning Corps and the others were long gone, giving them space to heartily fight against one another.

If any humans were to see how strong and powerful Shad's mortal body was, they would have quickly lost all colors. Even though he was only an early 6th class mage, his body toughness was equal to that of a 7th rank beast, not any beast but the Earth Destroying Battle Ape.

Bang!

The battle went on for about another hour before the body of the large ape slowly crashed to the ground, shaking twice before sending a ton of dust flying up into the air.

As for Shad, he was covered in blood. At this moment, his entire body was torn apart, but there was still a brilliant smile on his face. The purple lightning seed really was marvelous.

Even though Shad had many methods to kill the Earth Destroying Battle Ape, such as the lightning energy or some powerful magic spells, but that would take away the fun from the challenge. Only through life and death crisis would he be able to draw out the full potential and the hidden abilities of the purple lightning seed within his infinite space.
