Chapter 675: [Ares Vs Allen (3)]

The battle raged intensely.

The two parties exploded in power.

The two types of flames, one scorching hot, while the other was freezing cold, clashed against each other, creating sparks that seemed to break the air or even space itself!

As if playing tug o’ war, if one look closely, both of the flames seemed to be devouring the other.

“Then, let’s see who will devour first, EPIMETHEUSSSS!!!” Ares roared out in near utter anger and excitement as he stared widely.

The Infernal Flames on him suddenly soared and became more intense...

His power skyrocketed.

“Infernal Heeeeellll!!” The deep crimson-colored flames instantly became much more violent and quickly suppressed the Ice Phoenix Flames.

Being pushed back, Allen felt a rusty taste on his throat and his eyebrows knitted together. His body slid back a few meters before stopping. A clear pair of black scorched lines were left on the ground.

Allen gnashed his teeth in fury. Clenching his fists, his energy surge through him. Golden colored aura enveloped him as if he had become a certain fighting race, but his hair remained the same. Only his eyes gleamed radiantly. Two pairs of sharp fangs seemed to grow on his mouth, upper and lower, almost the size of a thumb. With a loud howl, the silhouette of an angel-winged Ice Queen appeared behind him. Its beautiful face distorted into a ferocious expression, her eyes full of murderous intention. Her arms opened wide as if trying to embrace Allen, standing in front of her.

And then, the power of the Ice Phoenix exploded along with a fierce bird’s cry.

“Cocytussss!!!”

Booom!!!

Like two huge waves violently colliding with each other, a sea of flames replaced all the air in the entire battlefield.

The air seemed to have been exhausted in an instant.

The entire area was instantly transformed into a world of flames.

Wooosh.

Allen's eye-catching Ice Phoenix Flames and the Infernal Flames of Ares collided against each other violently. They clashed and rammed against each other a few times, causing the entire world to tremble and shook a dozen times. The ground trembled as if in fear.

Only after a few minutes of competition did they gradually extinguish, revealing the two people within, both slightly disheveled.

In the battlefield where the flames had extinguished, Ares and Allen stood at the east and west side respectively, facing at each other.

Allen’s clothes were torn apart at various spots but he was smiling slightly, whereas Ares was almost the same, just that his mangled clothes were even more wrecked. The War God’s upper body was now laid bare, exposing his toned torso that shines in a red metallic luster. His skin seemed to be made up of red metallic steel, glossy and lustrous.

Not only were most of his clothes burnt, but even much of his hair had also been burnt. Although he did not seem to suffer any obvious burns, his face was as black as charcoal. His breathing is also slightly rapid.

Everyone held their breaths…

The violent clash of flames between the two had turned out to be a draw!

“Your flames, Ares…” Allen grinned tauntingly. “… is only so-so!”

This ridicule caused the face of Ares to distort.

He was unexpectedly unable to utter out even one phrase in retaliation.

Previously, he had shouted that Allen was yet to be qualified to stand against him. But in the blink of an eye, he had slapped himself on the face and it was just as Allen had mentioned… he slapped his own mouth himself. His arrogance backfired on him, turning into humiliation!

Even though Ares, the unreasonable Greek War God was about to explode with anger, instead of lashing, his face had instead revealed a cold smile, “Epimetheus, you really gave this god a pleasant surprise. This King admits that he has been looking down on you too much. But just now, that is probably your limit right?” he let out a savage laugh. “It’s such a pity that I have only used fifty percent of my strength just now!”

“… …”

“In front of this God, you are still just trash!” Ares howled, his imposing War God prestige had been ignited to its maximum within him. On his sword, Infernal Flames swayed vigorously before quickly growing more intense until the color of the crimson-black flames became similar to that of freshly dried blood.

“I said a while ago, less boasting Ares.” Allen scowled.

The Snow-white flames around him burned even stronger.

The area within ten meters away from him started to freeze solid and thick snow began falling from above him.

There are no snow clouds but the snow seemed to appear out of thin air and shower Allen.

“If you think that’s my limit, then think again…!”

Allen shouted in anger, his deafening voice resonated through the skies.

Chilly energy was unleashed from his body as his Frost Energy formed a whirlpool that seemed to possess the ability to devour all energy in the world. It circled around his body. His power exploded with a loud BAAAANG!!, causing him to look like a bright shining star that was dazzling to look at.

The once glorious temple of Athena seemed to have been cut into two parts, one part filled with sea of crimson flames while the other end part was full of blue frosty ice and snow-white flames dancing, slashing the sky into half with one side being the feisty fire hell and the other one was being snowy winter hell.

Those who were in them were either perspiring profusely or shivering from the cold.

The weirdest one was Phobos who was spectating the intense fight of the two Gods. He happened to be in the middle of the two. His body on the left was covered in frost, causing his face to be numbed from the cold while his body on the right was perspiring profusely, as perspiration showered down like waterfall causing him great agony.

“That’s good!! Epimetheus!! Entertain me more!!!”

Ares laughed like a madman.

The Crimson, like blood-made flames around Ares, burned intensely and the strong devil-like aura was accompanied by the cries of ghosts and warcries akin to that of a battlefield. It was as though there were countless souls being burnt at that moment.

The strength of the flame’s aura was enough to move the strongest Gods in the Celestial Realm…

“This is this King’s true strength.” Ares bathed in the flames, his hair flying and his face pitch-black due to the flame. He looked as though he was an evil god of devils that had walked out from the depths of hell. He looked at the flame in his hands, felt his aura, and had a satisfied expression.

At this instant, he felt that he could now easily control everything… even the fate of the fearless hero before him who had challenged his authority.

“Let this God see how long you can still struggle in the face of my full strength, Epimetheus. A War God can never be defeated… you should have known that long ago!! We, spells, VICTORY!!”

“Hmph! Pathetic pride, Olympian!!” Allen growled in anger and a pair of huge, thick, curved, ribbed demon horns appeared on his head. An obsidian colored angelic feathery wings spread out from behind him, both covered by obsidian colored feathers.

With a gush of wind, this beautiful pair of wings that seemed to be work of a grandmaster artist, pointed to the sky haughtily, as if showing its might to all creatures that he was the overlord.

An electric current flowed through Allen’s body with a sizzling sound.

His ten fingernails became sharper and pointier, emerging into powerful beast-like claws that could tear everything in pieces. The black steel shackles made clinking sounds as they swayed in the air, making a musical rhythm.

His crimson eyes gleamed brightly like two scorching suns—electric light shot out from his eyes and up into the sky, like a sharp sword that could tear down the skies… It looked really impressive!

“There’s nothing absolute in the world, Olympian!!” Allen sneered.

“Let me show you, a War God can fall…!!!”

“DIEEE EPIMETHEUS!!!”

The Greek War God; Ares roared like thunder.

His voice was like the war cry of a thousand cavalry.

“In your dreams!” Allen did not back off but rather, he went forward.

The speed of the Greek War God; Ares had achieved the maximum that seemed to surpass the speed of sound, appeared before Allen. He then unleashed his power and waved an impactful punch onto Allen’s chest. The air around his fist seemed to have been broken like glassworks. Though, at the same time, he was being hit with Allen’s punch that came flying almost simultaneously.

Allen's lips curled into a devil-like smile.

BOOOOOM!!!!

The face of the Greek War God contorted into an ugly expression the moment he felt the impact of Allen’s punch. He suddenly felt a torturing pain that could tear his body apart.

He realized that his hand that could cleave metals and crushed rocks couldn’t tear through Allen’s skin. On the opposite, Allen’s punches could penetrate through his [Invincible Body] that protected his body.

How? How is this possible?

How is his power suddenly increased…?!

To the shock of the people who were watching the intense battle, and under the eye goggling gaze of Phobos and Deimos, Allen clenched hard on the War God's fists as he raised the Greek War God’s body into the air, thrusting Ares, onto the ground of the volcanic region.

The entire palace temple shook!

It all happened so fast!

The shockwave from the thrust caused the buildings and boulders around the temple to collapse as if swept by a hurricane. Other than Phobos and Deimos, all things flew more than ten meters away from the shock. Those lighter ones crashed more than a hundred meters away. Even a large hole was torn open on the walls of the temple, revealing the outside.

But this should have been unbreakable...!

This was how powerful a single strike of Allen was!

Why?

How did Allen’s power suddenly increase by a huge margin?!

Allen did not even bother explaining why. His power system is not only depending on one type. Within his body, three types of energy; God Energy, Pure Xiantian Qi, and Chakra—all elementals turned into one type of energy the moment Allen exploded all his power. They melded together into one single energy, almost similar to that of [Origin], the primordial energy of the entire universe and Realms—known as the Breathe of the World!

The power that came from it is among the greatest explosive energy a High God can use.

Even among High Gods, barely a small amount can access and control the power of [Origin].

At this very moment, Allen’s physical body, senses, and attribute skyrocketed as if being fueled by high-grade oil. Eight Paths within his body also circulated into countless cycles with a rapid speed, reinforcing and repairing the damage on his muscles and nerves caused by this sudden influx of destructive energy.

However, only God knows, despite having a serene look on his face; Allen was actually feeling pain all over his body.

This type of pain, even the person with the highest tolerance for pain would surely cry. It’s as if almost all nerves on his body was torn apart, and then forcefully fixed. The pain was a hundred times than usual. If not for the [Undying King], that had shut off all his pain receivers, he would have kneeled down in agony and screamed.

This was the consequence of using and controlling energy almost identical to the [Origin], showing that his physical body is yet to be enough to contain the destructive power of the [Origin]!

This kind of pain...?

It was not something a person, no matter who they are, can endure!

However, Allen had been enduring the pain without batting an eyelid. Although, it's also mainly because of the [Undying King]'s merit, still the cry of his soul, is enough for him to shake in despair. Still, he gritted his teeth and take it like a man!

If not for his miraculous [Flawless Restoration] as well as the [Void Spider Buddha] Cultivation manual that enables him to access eight energy paths within his body, to continuously provide necessary magic power for the [Flawless restoration] ability to work endlessly, he would have been wailing in pain just about now.

With his [Void Spider Buddha] Cultivation Technique, Allen was able to obtain eight plug-ins that continuously absorbing and purifying the energy of Heaven and Earth for him, to nourish his body as well as replenishing his magical power that was lost.

Thus, it is noteworthy to say that, with the help of his cultivation technique, and his current cultivation level, in terms of both quantity and quality energy, Allen far surpassed those with the same level as him. Even Ares on that matters…!

With this power, Allen’s own power increase drastically; even Ares was shocked by the extent.
