This explosion born from a singularity ravaged the land like the arrival of doomsday, it was truly apocalyptic.
Whoosh!
The wind howled like a blaring car alarm. in the sky, the dark spatial storm assaulted everything around it. The white and black flames it carried also rained down upon the land in fiery brimstones and flaming meteors.
The trees that stood their ground for centuries got blown away like they just grew yesterday. Some were instantly reduced to nothing by the dichotomous flames. The most unfortunate trees were the ones that got uprooted and then incinerated in midair. It was like the trees never existed.
That's how frightening this power outburst was.
The mountain that had done no wrong got demolished, reduced to boulders that littered the ground. The land was dry and barren, all resemblance of moisture was gone from this area. For this area to make a recovery, it would probably be measured in centuries. Fortunately, this place was not the outside world and with time things will be back to normal as long as mana existed, dungeons work like that.
Back to the battlefield.
The flames raged around violently, it made one wonder if the flames were here to stay. Luckily, they didn't stay for long, the flames slowly died down in intensity.
A gap filled with eyes opened up as Alex examined the wreckage they wrought. He looked a bit pale and haggard. He had opened the portal in a hurry.
With a pale face, he looked at the raging storm of flames and broken space.
Even he had used a major portion of his energy reserve to use that white flame attack. The power was in-line with mana consumption.
He didn't let his guard down. That space-shattering anomaly fueled by his white flames and Angus's black flames wasn't an event he would like to be dragged into.
Regaining his breathing, he narrowed his eyes as he swept his gaze over the battlefield.
Where the latter was.
The spatial crack still permeated this area. However, the devastating powers that ravaged the land are still here.
With the hell on earth here, even a Saint would die in a second if they charged in.
Boom!
It sounded like something broke out from the ground. Alex's expression brightened.
A dark light rose and the surrounding sea of flames was blown away when a shockwave was emitted from the epicenter.
This outburst increased the cracks of space while blowing away the flames nearby.
The storm and weird flames of opposite polar temperatures threw the environment into disarray.
He stared at the event as sparks flew by. He ignored the sparks while keeping his eyes on that corner.
Mana surged and a figure shot out from within the fiery hell.
Angus suddenly surged out and looked tattered, his clothes were burnt to crisps, and he was also sooty all over with smoke coming off him. His skin was charred and his face is just as pale as Alex's face, no even paler.
Blood could be seen streaming down the side of his lips. His blood stained the shadow bone statue he used to cover him. The guy took the singularity's explosion head-on and survived.
Alex's eyes flashed with a cold glint and he disappeared through another gap.
When the gap opened again, it was behind Angus.
The bone statue immediately shot a dark laser at the gap as if he anticipated this sneak attack.
Alex pointed at the light and a gap in space opened up to stop the black laser.
It didn't take the black laser and flames to burn the gap to nothing.
With another finger point, a laser struck Angus who was protected by the frames of his bone statue.
Bam
The collision staggered Angus. He got pushed down onto the desolate land.
BOOOOM!
Angus spat out a fresh mouthful of blood. He held his pained chest as his mind went blank. Every movement sent waves of throbbing pain through his chest and back. It was exhausting and he felt sick, but there seemed to be nothing he could do about it. It was exhausting and the pain took its toll on him. Tired, but unable to sleep and unable to stop it. He tried as best he could to block out the pain, to find some form of meditative trance in order to cope with the agonizing sensations.
He took a deep breath and shifted his focus, determined to swallow the pain and keep going. On any other day, he probably would've gone to bed and rested to make sure he would heal well and fast, but not today. Today was a day of pushing the limits, the fight hadn't ended yet.
A portal opened up next to him.
"Doomsday!"
Angus's instincts took over and he conjured the giant shadow bone statue again, covering him in a dark shadowy set of bony frames.
Boom boom boom boom
Multiple black and white orbs struck the statue, but they didn't damage the owner within.
Alex wasn't fazed. He stretched out his palm as he appeared in front of the statue.
His cold grin entered Angus's shrunk pupils just as he placed his palm on the dark skeleton.
He used the dreaded technique, his eyes turned momentarily golden slit like that of a dragon.
"Nothingness!"
A weird power suffused the shadow statue, it came from Alex's hand after he talked in dragon language.
Clang
The statue got dematerialized as it lost color and power. The bones were cracking all over and then...
Crack
The whole thing shattered into myriad fragments.
Angus saw his trump card destroyed and his heart started racing. Trembling with survival instincts, he showed a desperate expression and he channeled what little mana he had left.
However, a sly figure appeared before him again.
Alex placed his hand upon Angus's robust shoulder and he mumbled something that froze Angus.
"It's over..."
An intense alarm rose within the mayor that complotted against Alex. Then, a familiar wave of energy struck him.
"Heaven and Earth Reversal! Absolute Nothingness!''
Alex declared the end of this fight, regardless of what Angus had to say.
Boooommm
The heaven tumbled down.
The earth gave way. The Judgment day had come.
BOOOOM
This attack was so large scale the sound and the effects could be heard and observed all the way from the base situated outside this Forest.
The patrols saw this and they all looked in that direction.
Soldiers who were sleeping got an abrupt awakening. They watched with stupefied looks at the scene in the distance. They were stunned, struck with disbelief, and awed.
What did they see?
They saw the sky shattering into a million pieces, it looked like the world was ending over there in the forest. The pieces of the sky rained down on the land, at least, the land that used to be there. Now, the ground was empty, there was a giant hole expanding profusely like a black hole that threatened to consume everything around it.
No, to them the world was ending.
They looked around and they saw familiar faces, they weren't dreaming. Mesmerized by this obscene display of power, they watched as the sky in the distance fell. Beneath them, the earth quivered. It wasn't just the sky, the earth was facing the day of reckoning too. That's no man's land there, neither sky nor earth for any creature to live in.
If this scene continued any longer, the base would be swept up in it.
The guard's camp nearby rallied as they started reporting to their superiors. Some cowardly soldiers already deserted the base. The base was in complete chaos.
The mayor's son's right-hand man Lukas yelled as he tried to maintain order. He's shaken to the core too, however, he needs to do his job by leading his men through this weird event.
Suppressing his fear, Lukas ordered his men.
"Gather here right now! Everyone is to standby for further orders!"
Order returned as the soldiers gathered on a vacant field nearby. They waited for their superiors' orders.
Lukas sighed in relief. He looked at the void in the sky as a cold drop of sweat rolled down the side of his head. His back is already wet with sweat. Chilled by this anomaly, he shivered as he thought about the implications.
Thousands of theories played out in his mind, he bitterly shook his head to get rid of the mental demons. After Alex and Incursio's arrival, his daily life got thrown into disorder. He couldn't control almost anything that happened in this base. This was the first time when he felt like his peak Saint realm power is woefully insufficient for the events that were thrown at him by his master.
Indeed, if he got involved in the fight between demigods, his peak Saint realm power wasn't anything to look at.
Balling his palms into fists, Lukas looked at the apocalypse event in the distance and he went for his master, hopefully, he would be there. Brycen may have the solution, unfortunately, the mayor's son was nowhere to be seen despite being there a few minutes ago.
''Shit!'' Lukas swore.
