Chapter 1021 The Accursed Sunstone Treant
-----
Ding!
[The resentful souls only desire retribution and death! They have used the Sunstone Tree as their vessel!]
[The [Accursed Sunstone Treant (Tier 8)] has emerged!]
[The Aura of the Accursed Sunstone Treant exudes a deadly flame!]
[Abyssal Soul Flames are beginning to spread rapidly, consuming all Mana and Energy!]
FLUOSH!
The moment the Treant emerged, it released a shockwave of black flames, which quickly set the entire cave ablaze.
"W-What is going on?!" Aquarina couldn't help but grow more surprised. "The Tree turned into a monster?!"
"I guess that's the case…" I said, barely trying to believe what I was seeing. "I didn't expect the tree itself to become the vessel for all the souls though…"
"You're really a handful! [Cursed Flame Absorption]!"
Ignatius roared furiously, stepping forwards as he began to absorb the Abyssal Soul Flames into his body, which made him feel slightly sick.
FLAAASH!
"RAAAAHHH!"
Ignatius and Curse clashed against the Treant while their fusion only had around less than a minute left. The flames they absorbed quickly turning into chains that wrapped around the Treant legs.
"GRAAARRR!"
The Treant grew furious, attacking the fusion of two spirits with its enormous claws, slowly covering them with large wounds.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
"Now, while Ignatius is distracting it!" I called Aquarina and Nephilim.
"Got it!" Aquarina quickly released her powers at full, her two Spirits fusing their powers into her body.
"Very well!" Nephilim nodded, her two spears growing even larger than before.
All three of us leaped towards the giant Treant, which was constantly struggling against Ignatius. Tier 8 Monsters were ferocious and incredibly strong and tough foes, so we couldn't hold back!
I activated the effects of all my equipment, including my Holy Light Spirit Tiara, my Dragon Scale Armor, and my two rings, swiftly boosting my Fire, Darkness, and Light Attribute Power the most, while further enhancing my draconic abilities.
"[Holy Dragon Spear Tail]!"
Using Scarlet and activating her Skills in combination with my Yggdragon Aura and Alice's Divine Aura, I attacked the Treant.
A barrage of powerful piercing strikes was unleashed, as I rapidly pierced through the giant creature's body, leaving behind several holes.
My attacks resembled the sharp spear-tipped tails of dragons, imbued with holy light.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"SHYAAAGH!"
The Treant gave out an agonizing scream, quickly glaring at me and gathering energy into its branches, firing several Abyssal Sunlight Beams my way.
"[Shadow Dagger Arts]: [Umbral Knives]!"
Aquarina transformed only her arms through her Abyssal Embodiment ability, combining them with her two daggers as she fused them with her powers, multiplying them into dozens of Umbral Knives.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The projectiles she conjured quickly intercepted the beams, blocking them and exploding on contact.
"You're getting better at controlling your powers!" I praised her.
"I'm still lacking, but yeah!" Aquarina smiled. "Now…! [Heavenly Ocean Ruler Arts]: [Abyssal Kraken's Tentacles]!"
She combined the power of her Abyssal Embodiment with her Heavenly Ocean Ruler Skill, unleashing a devastating manifestation of her combined magical powers.
Dozens of giant black tentacles surged, attacking the Treant, they attacked through the wounds I left behind, spreading more cracks across the beast.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
Crack, crack…! CRACK!
"SHAAARRRGGHH!"
With a furious scream composed of dozens of agonizing souls, the Treant attacked Ignatius, opening its massive jaws and releasing a huge beam of abyssal sunlight.
TRUUUMM…!!
"S-SHIT…!"
Ignatius and Curse did their best to absorb the entire beam, their body quickly growing into an enormous dragon made of black flames, but it was beginning to disintegrate due to the instability of the Abyssal Soul Flames.
"Ignatius!"
I panicked, but he simply smiled!
"Heh, take this, bastard!"
With laughter, the brave red dragon released all the power he absorbed at once, a massive beam of black flames engulfed the creature.
FLASH!
"GRYYEERRGHH…!"
The flames quickly pierced through its crystal body, generating more cracks, an explosion shook the entire cave, almost making the ceiling collapse over us.
BOOOM!
Smoke filled our surroundings, as I waved my hand and cleansed them, quickly realizing the Treant was still alive.
Ignatius and Curse infused in that moment, emerging back inside my Soul Scape.
"Phew… I'm exhausted."
"That was more intense than I imagined."
"You two are way too reckless!"
Alice started to reprimand them as Aquarina, Nephilim, and I faced the wounded creature.
"Well, they did a good job, but that thing's still kicking." Aquarina said, gripping her daggers tightly.
"It seems to be quite tough." I nodded. "However, Nephilim is here too!"
"[Star of Oblivion]! [Star of Pandemonium]!"
She quickly appeared above the Treant, who was still feeling slightly dizzy after that attack, her two spears absorbed her Divine and Demonic Powers.
"RAAAH!"
She descended with her angelic and her demonic wings, releasing two powerful attacks by launching both of her spears!
"GRUOOHH!"
The Treant, however, realized her attack, barely moving a few meters away for the spears to pierce its roots and the left side of its head.
CRASH! CRASH!
Crack, crack…! CRACK!
RUMBLE!
Almost a third of its body collapsed into pieces due to the intense explosion of holy light and demonic energy, but it survived nonetheless, quickly attacking Nephilim!
"RUOOOHHH!"
Dozens of claws reached her through the Treant's branches, throwing her away and making her hit the walls behind the creature.
BAAAMM!
"Ugh…!"
"Nephilim!" I cried, rushing towards the Treant with Aquarina. "You damn walking tree! Okay, sorry Lara, but I'm not going to have mercy anymore!"
"Well said! Screw this bastard!" Aquarina was just as pissed off, the two of us leaped into action.
"[Draconification]!"
We activated True Draconification almost at the same time, as we converged several of our abilities at once!
FLAAASH!
Aquarina combined her Spirits powers with her Draconification and her Abyssal Embodiment, turning her into an Abyssal Sea Half-Dragon, with black scales and purple hair, and crimson red eyes.
Meanwhile, I combined my Yggdragon Aura with Alice, Yggdra, and Naturia's powers into my Draconification, turning my eyes silver-colored, while my hair turned blonde, and I was covered on golden scales.
The two of us resembled two flashes of black and bright light, attacking the Treant with our weapons, explosions of darkness and light covering its body.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
