(Bing Xue's POV)
I was left slightly speechless after seeing what Peperina could achieve by combining her innate abilities with the training she had undergone so far. I would have happily assisted her before, but she had explicitly asked me to let her do this on her own. However, once she was finally over, I immediately jumped to heal her.
Infernos was surprisingly powerful; despite not having a single speck of knowledge about cultivation or body strengthening, he had managed to create a powerful Aura technique using his Mana alone, alongside the Lesser Divine Essence within his Blessing, as an Avatar of the Barbarian God.
It made him formidable, even more so when taking into consideration his high Level, yet Peperina managed to almost be at the same level as him before triggering her unique ability. Mostly thanks to my intensive training and the cultivation she underwent, which boosted her innate bloodline abilities and further awakened their power.
"Enough playing around, woman."
"Hm?"
Oh, right, I was fighting Cultists, and then someone appeared. A tall orc blocked my path, a hybrid between red and green orcs, whose skin was dark brown instead, with a few tattoo-like patches of green and red color resembling flames.
He was over three meters tall, exuding an enormous quantity of Divinity from the Barbarian God, another Avatar, and a strong one at that, probably stronger than Infernos, without a doubt.
A fitting challenger for someone like me!
"As one of the strongest Avatars of our God, I will not let you sully his battlefield anymore with your filthy righteousness!" he roared. "As my name, Onyx the Butcherer, shall be honored on this battlefield as I behead you, fiend!"
FLUOSH!
He quickly summoned two enormous swords, wielding them as he imbued them with green- and crimson-colored energies, resembling blazing flames of pure Mana and Divinity mixed together.
"Hah? Good, I wanted to try out this new energy's power anyway."
I smiled. The more Souls the Demons I summoned ate, the stronger they grew, and the more Primordial Demonic Heaven Essence I gained. This strange new energy tied to the Dimensional Library Skill was unique in its composition.
"You dare look down on me in such a way when you're merely a human?!"
The furious Onyx rushed towards me, leaping forward as his blazing Aura erupted from his legs, and his two giant swords swung down the moment he appeared above me.
SLAAASH! SLAAASH!
Two gigantic, cutting waves of green and crimson flames rushed down towards my body, and as I had no necessity to unsheathe any blade anymore, I swung my bare hand, combining it with the new essence together.
"Did you know that where there is Light, there will always be Darkness?"
FLUOSH!
My light suddenly transformed, becoming complete darkness, absorbing the Primordial Demonic Heaven Essence, and gaining red and purple colors.
"{Primordial Heaven Soul Blade: Cursed Demon Wolf's Fangs}"
I swung my hand as the Soul Blade Aura transformed, becoming a ferocious wolf that opened its jaws, clashing against the orc's swords and shattering his Aura instantly.
CRAAASH!
"What…?!"
He gasped in disbelief as the intensity of my attack hit his body. An explosion of darkness engulfed him completely, his entire body rolling over the grass, cursed flames of black and purple covering his wounds.
"Hahhh… Hahhh… W-What was that?!" He muttered in disbelief. "A wolf…! You summoned a wolf?!"
"Would a wolf ever leave such a scar on your chest?" I walked slowly towards him. "It was just a small bite; don't tell me you can't handle that."
"Aahh! A slash wound?!" Onyx noticed the huge wound on his chest; it was horizontal and clean. A slash, without a doubt.
"{Soul Blade}…" I said it with a smile. "Have you ever tried to wield your own hands as a sword, young man?"
"My hands?! What bullshit is that?!" Onyx muttered. "Such a thing... That's just impossible!"
"With that mentality, of course, it's impossible," I sighed. "Now come, let's make this not so boring. Fight me and die with honor!"
My two hands materialized swords out of my aura, overflowing with darkness and cursed demonic power. The orc quickly stood back up again, his blazing swords growing larger and his entire body covered in armor of green and crimson fire.
"I'll show you, filthy human! YOU are the one that shall DIE here!"
FLASH!
Within a single second, he appeared in front of me, moving at an incredible speed despite his large build! Impressive; he most likely had mastered some movement-related techniques beyond just mere System Skills.
"You're very fast; well done!"
Our swords clashed, sparks of black and green lightning and flames erupting with each impact; the ground below shattered and the skies above rumbled.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
He's definitely not as strong as the Primal King, but he does have enough power to be comparable to mighty cavemen, perhaps almost the same as Fiery Hair.
That, coupled with swordsmanship techniques that are similar to Caesar, is someone who could challenge him for his throne.
Despite all of that, he's a lunatic—someone who worships a barbaric god.
And as I promised to those children, I will show no mercy.
"{Rampaging Emerald Flame Storm}!"
With a ferocious roar, his attacks became rapid, generating a constant swirl of green flames around him that quickly manifested a storm, engulfing the two of us.
FLUOSH!
The storm constantly attempted to devour my body, trying to burn me and consume my flesh at a rapid speed. Yet it failed to do any damage whatsoever. Nonetheless, it was quite a mighty ability.
"{Emerald Flare Meteor Rain}!!!"
With a roar, and as his eyes turned deep green, he swung his two blades consecutively, dozens of times over. Each time, the storm around us manifested gigantic meteors made of crystalized green flames, reaching me and exploding.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Hahaha! Nobody can survive my ultimate technique! I have felled even mighty Players from upper floors with it!" laughed Onyx. "I remain undefeated!"
He swung his arms and raised them into the sky as the storm continued unleashing its flames and wrath against my body.
"A peculiar, if not rather colorful, ability…"
"Huh?!"
However, to his surprise, I moved past his meteors. Each time his meteors were to hit me, they were sliced apart without me even moving my hand or swinging a sword at all.
"{Soul Blade: Sword Physique}"
My enlightenment over the blade has given me yet another new ability. To imbue my whole body with the sharpness of Soul Blade, making it so… Anything that hit me was sliced apart before it could damage me at all.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
The meteors exploded into pieces, shattering apart into tiny green jewels I found quite pretty, so I saved some to examine later.
"I-Impossible…! Unscathed?! U-Utterly unscathed?!"
"Let me show you what a true technique looks like. You want to see a storm?"
I spread my arms, my Aura fluctuating as my hands turned into blades, slicing space itself and distorting it. Within a mere split second, the orc was engulfed in a gigantic spiraling storm of black flames, demonic curses, and darkness.
FLUOOOSH!
"UAAGH?! W-WHAT…?!"
"{Soul Blade: Black Heaven's Storm}"
While confused and desperate to learn what was happening, I attacked, rushing towards him. He barely noticed my presence approaching, reinforcing his body with as much power as he could.
"{Body Reinforcement: Diamond Physique}!"
FLASH!
Suddenly, his body was covered with green and red diamonds, harder than any other substance on Earth. He became utterly invincible.
"Come at me! You won't be able to damage me in this state- Ahh?!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
A storm of slashing blows reached his body; the Black Heaven Storm merged with my hands, and each swing of my hands cut through his body as if it were a warm knife through butter.
"N-No…!"
As he saw his body being dismembered, he gritted his teeth as his Aura surged, resembling a giant hand made of green and red flames, perhaps his last resort.
Interesting. Is this Aura Manifestation?
BAAAMMM!!!
The impact hit me directly, with enough force to push me back into the skies. The explosion of flames engulfed my body, and I felt the heat quite well now.
"Hahhh… Hahahah…! T-This is…?! I've achieved something new!"
Onyx glanced at his own Aura, as it suddenly manifested more and more arms, his laughter reverberating across the skies.
He's learning, huh? Becoming stronger over time in his most desperate moments.
"I have to thank you for that!" He continued laughing. "{Aura Demon}!"
RUMBLE!
His Aura erupted as a giant demon-like titan surged from it. Six massive arms rushed down, hitting me constantly with enough force to destroy whole mountains.
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
"Hahaha…! HAHAHAHAH! Even without arms, I can still fight! I am invincible among heaven and earth!" he laughed. "I will take over the cult and become the true leader! Not even Infernos will be able to stop me now-"
RUMBLE!
Before he could continue his delusional speech, the entire sky turned black, as did all his surroundings.
"W-What…?! What happened?!"
He was engulfed within a world of endless night and darkness, where demonic creatures started being birthed endlessly, mixed with the shadows and the curses.
"I have to thank you too," I smiled, surging from within the Domain of Darkness as an enormous Demoness made of shadows and cursed powers. "Your techniques have given me a good idea as well."
{Primordial Black Heaven Domain}: {Cursed Demon Queen's Shadow Realm}!
My appearance changed, and all my powers of light were shifted upside down, turning into evil and dark powers. The powers that the Library granted me continued to evolve my abilities beyond my original scope.
"SHUT UP!!!"
With a furious and frustrated roar, Onyx's Aura Manifestation attacked me; not only six but then eight, ten, fifteen, and twenty arms rushed towards me.
Yet the darkness surrounding him responded faster than he thought. {Soul Blade} manifested within it, forming hundreds of giant shadow blades.
"{Soul Blade}: {Soul-Feasting Shadow Swords}"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
"Ugh…?!"
Onyx gritted his teeth, as he vomited blood.
BOOOM!
His Aura Manifestation exploded and dissipated as countless blades sliced it apart into countless pieces.
And then further damaged his body, leaving him falling into crystalline, diamond pieces.
"This was an entertaining warmup, if anything," I said with a smile. "Goodbye."
"A-Ahhh…!"
Without saying a single word, Onyx started screaming in utter horror as I summoned my physical sword and let it absorb my powers.
It became a titanic, demonic, cursed blade.
I guess this is overkill, huh?
But after seeing within his memories all the villages he had raided, the women he had raped, and the children he had killed.
What was there to hesitate about?
"Die like the filthy insect you are."
"HYEEEEEHH!"
With a scream befitting of an insect, my blade sliced through his entire diamond body, countless cracks spread through it and then made him explode apart, his very soul exploding and causing his body to be destroyed even faster.
BOOOMMM!!!
The Domain didn't disappear but was absorbed by my sword. As I slowly floated back into the grasslands below, the cultists that watched everything were caught off guard as the demons stabbed them in the back and beheaded them.
"A wonderful display of utter malice, my master!" Belze was watching me with fascination. "I have never seen such a tyrannical power before! You are truly a Demon!"
"Hah, I will gladly use these powers, but a Demon? Hardly," I smiled, making the gigantic demonic sword rest on my shoulder. "I'm a human, actually~ Collect those diamond fragments for me; they're quite precious materials!"
"Yes ma'am!"
The Demons quickly started gathering everything as I directed my eyes towards another battle, one involving my two beloved mates, Urbosa and Merkite, against Leos, the traitorous king of beasts, who, according to them, betrayed the beast tribes after he joined the barbarian god cult seeking even more power and authority over the world.
"Things are only getting more interesting, don't you think?"
I looked into the skies; the clouds slowly began rumbling harder, with red lightning coming from them.
There was someone seriously annoyed with what was happening.
"You just lost two Avatars already; you're pretty pathetic for a god."
RUMBLE!
