CLAAASH!

A giant spear made of spiraling divine spiritual water pierced Yin Shang's heart. All of those attempts at slowing him down were just for the attack to hit him directly in the chest! Where his core was.

"W-Wha…?!"

BOOOMMM!!!

The spear quickly exploded, engulfing him on an all-purifying azure light. His entire body started to burn like never before. His screams of agony echoing across the entire dungeon.

"Gryyyaaagghh! W-What the- UGH…?!"

He directed his gaze towards the skies above him. I had opened the Shadow Realm for the trio of the day to finally come deliver this Murim bastard his just deserts.

Little Celes was floating in midair, his Divine Spiritual Aura overflowing from his body, allowing him to easily fly, while Eustace was merged into his aura, protecting him like a mighty knight, with sword and shield.

And his mother was right by his side, her wind magic encompassing them into a vortex-like barrier for further protection. Celes and his mom had truly grown stronger in this week we've spent here.

"YOU!"

Yin Shang roared like a beast, swiftly trying to catch them with his giant axe, only to be stopped as I teleported in front of him, the spear in my hands separated into the two original weapons, as I parried his blows.

CLAAASH!

"Get off my way! I have to kill them! I have to eat that child's soul! If I do… I could become stronger, I could truly-"

"You sure love to say out loud what you will do and what you want to do, huh? Do the Murim people do not know to shut the fuck up sometimes?"

I kicked his chin and closed his mouth abruptly, which almost broke his jaws. Not like it did matter though, they were made of a fleshy miasmic slime already, so he didn't even had bones.

"It's because of you savages that I lose my temper! RAAAAH!!"

Using his gigantic black axe, Yin Shang unleashed a barrage of powerful strikes. I bombarded him with my Abyssal Netherworld's Stars to cover the areas around him. While I used my multiple arms, the chains made of curses and shadows, and my two weapons to block as many blows as possible.

But even then, his attacks were so intense and capable of breaking through magic constructions that it made most of my attacks become much weaker. My stars were only doing little damage as he was so agile he easily cut them down before they could impact him directly.

And all of that in just a few seconds!

"[Azure Dragon Swordsmanship]: [Tempestuous Waves]!"

A series of sword slashes descended upon the cultivator from behind, coming from Eustace. His attacks were constant and precise, like deadly waves of divine blue light, yet they were all water concentrated to the level it could cut through almost anything.

SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH!

"EUSTACEEEE!"

The Dark Pest released a wave of darkness from his body, quickly overtaking the endless waves of azure water wrapped around his body and destroying them.

"You'll be the first one I cut to pieces! You resilient little cockroach!"

He leaped into midair, his axe rushing down into the ghost, only for the knight to smile, his azure eyes glowing brightly. Nia appeared right behind him, conjuring all her magic at once, a giant vortex of winds was unleashed, so strong it forced the demonic Yin Shang to evade, but he didn't manage due to his enormous body, having both of his arms sliced.

"[Divine Wind Blade]!"

SLAAASH!

"W-What?!"

The cultivator's crimson eyes were filled with disbelief as he lost both of his arms in that mere second. Nia from all people was the one he wasn't even paying attention to, he was only seeing her as… nothing at all, in fact he never even recognized her existence.

However, it was all just for this moment, she unleashed all her powers and cut down his arms. His weapon fell from his hands, he desperately tried to regrow new arms as his weapon started hovering towards him.

"Mine!"

I grabbed the axe forcefully, as I felt its powerful aura and soul resisting against my grasp, but I quickly suppressed it with the power of the Undead Queen, and then stored the axe inside my inventory, trapping it in that pocket dimension.

FLASH!

"My weapon! Give it back, you thief!"

With a furious and shocked roar, Yin Shang transformed again, resembling a giant multi-headed snake, a hydra, opening its jaws and attacking me with both bites and beams of abyssal darkness. I was the only one here that could take the hits properly, so I grit my teeth and let the bastard attack me as much as he wanted, distracting him from what was coming.

"Eustace!" Celes called. "I'm ready now…!"

"Alright, Celes! I'm trusting on you!" Eustace swiftly left his form after unleashing a last technique, summoning a dozen sea snakes that wrapped around Yin Shang, further distracting him.

His entire body turned into a mass of azure light, fusing with Celes weapon, the spear I had made, which I shaped into a staff for him. The staff quickly became completely blue, and then changed shape automatically as the boy imbued his powers into it… shaping it into a gigantic azure sword, overflowing with power! In fact, wasn't it too big for him to wield?!

FLUOSH!

"What are you planning?!" Yin Shang quickly ignored me, rushing towards Celes. "A giant sword?! You can't even wield that, you stupid child! I'll take that away from you!"

The monstrous hydra extended his giant necks, trying to catch Celes. Nia swiftly summoned more cutting wind blades, defending her son, but she only managed to behead three heads before four more reached them.

I teleported through shadows, protecting all of them as his countless jaws gnawed through my armor, breaking it apart and then biting and eating chunks of my soul.

"Do you like the flavor of my soul, bastard? [Undead Detonation]!"

"Again?!

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

The three snake-like heads that took pieces of my soul detonated into phantasmal flames, only for Yin Shang to quickly transform again, now resembling a giant Shen Long, a Chinese dragon!

"RAAAAHHH!!!"

Black lightning surged from his giant jaws, as he unleashed a mighty thunderstorm against us!

CRAAASH!
