Chapter 1014: My Lord, I Went Too Far (1/2)
”Guah!” Krune groaned as he slammed onto the training room's walls, blanking out for a moment. In the place he stood before, a layer of ice formed, acting as a wall. The scene had happened so fast that he was hit before his ice shield could form.
Dreams of the Heart—Ocean Turbulence!
Krune fused all five crimson rings into his healing effect before infusing them into his Frozen Blood. As the blood pumped through his body, he fused Neon Radiance into it, emitting them while fusing Moving Ripple atop everything, controlling the Frozen Blood from not spilling beyond the boundaries of his body.
Through that, they were only transmitting the healing effect in the form of a cold wave through his body, quickly regenerating his damaged parts, especially his face that had caved in enough to shatter his eyeballs.
Through his Sonic Radar, he barely managed to grasp a figure's movements, covering himself with ice to create a thick sheet. At the very moment a fist landed on him, he manipulated the ice with Moving Ripple, absorbing as much of the impact force as possible using Moving Ripple, causing the thick sheet of ice to break.
In the meantime, Krune using Moving Ripple on the layer of ice he made on the floor, barely evading when a sonic boom flashed at the tips of the Red Demon's fists, sending him flying. Krune crashed into the floor, hurriedly using the chance to spread ice all over the floor.
He intended to layer the floor with ice so that he could move faster. With his Moving Ripple, he was able to move at least thrice as fast as if he was on land. However, the moment his ice began to spread on the floor, Hazak punched the air in a flurry of blasts.
The sonic booms it created shattered all the ice into a great number of fragments. Plus, the friction it generated caused the volatile substances in the air to catch fire, turning the training room into a sea of fire.
Krune condensed a sword of ice, slashing it into Hazak when it appeared before him. Sadly, his ice sword shattered from the impact, barely nicking a surface wound on the Red Demon. In turn, a punch landed on his stomach, sending him reeling backward.
Krune slammed into the wall with enough force that blood splattered from him in all directions. Fortunately, he still managed to retain consciousness, thanks to his Ocean Turbulence working hard on healing him.
Hazak then flashed before Krune, intending to send in the finishing blow when an air needle slammed into the side of his shoulder, sending him crashing into the floor. The attack came from diagonally upwards, slowly moving forward as the angle changed upon his crash, soon pinning him vertically.
The air needle was tremendously strong, powerful to the extent that Hazak's muscles were drilled into, his tendons, ligaments, and nerves even getting shredded into pieces. The air in the room turned thin as everything was sucked into the massive Cloud Whale that had manifested.
