Chapter 736: Streak?
[Ding!]
The bell announced the start of the sixteenth round of battle. Aakesh grew serious right from the start since losing this battle would mean continuing the streak of failures.
His eyes turned cold. The Divine Ligator was also very angry after losing so many battles to Aakesh, so when its strength reached a satisfying level to challenge its opponent, it decided to fight with its all right from the start.
The sound of the bell hadn’t even subsided when sounds of metallic clashes rang in the battle arena.
Neither of them wanted to be the second to take the initiative, so both of them did it at once.
Aakesh’s sword gracefully clashed with the Ligator’s claw when suddenly another Ligator’s sharp claw came charging at him.
Aakesh did not react to it as if he didn’t care for it, but when the claw was about to touch Aakesh, his sword appeared right there to stop it.
Scenes like this continuously happened since the Divine Ligator had twelve claws while Aakesh only had one sword.
Time flew by, and a few minutes had passed in the blink of an eye.
The battle between Aakesh and the Ligator was still going on as none of the two was able to come to the top in the fight.
Aakesh had unlimited endurance, so he didn’t feel tired despite fighting such a high-intensity battle continuously for the last few minutes. The Divine Ligator wasn’t also tired since it had one of the best endurance in the Multiverse.
The battle continued creating destructions across the arena, while the injury on both Aakesh and his opponent grew with each passing moment.
Fortunately and unfortunately, the injuries weren’t something to care about for both the combatants, so they fought without caring for one.
Time doesn’t stop for anyone, and the same was the case for Aakesh and the Divine Ligator.
Around eighteen minutes had passed since the sixteenth round of battle between Aakesh and the Ligator began.
The Divine Ligator had lost seven of its foot, while a deep gash was there on its head. Similarly, Aakesh also had a deep injury, with a large cut on his waist. Blue blood continuously flowed from the injury since Aakesh wasn’t able to heal the damage due to the poisonous skill used by the Ligator while causing him the respective wound.
Aakesh had a cold expression, while the Divine Ligator had an angry face as they both stared at each other.
The next moment, as if they had communicated the step beforehand, Aakesh and the Ligator made their moves.
Aakesh straightened his sword and raised it in the air. The next moment, the light started receding around Aakesh, as darkness leaking from the sword overpowered the light.
In no time, a few hundred meters of the area around Aakesh turned into complete darkness, where it was impossible for anyone to use any of their senses.
The arena was currently spread across three hundred miles since the Ligator alone covered the area of one mile.
The next moment, darkness started receding back toward the sword. This time, it didn’t melt into the sword, but it started covering the sharp surface, making it even darker than the darkness itself.
“Crack!”freew ebnove l.com
“Crack!”
“Crack!”
The next moment, cracking sounds rang in the area as even the space couldn’t handle the aura currently leaking from the sword.
If anyone were to look at the sword, they would feel themselves standing in a pool of massacre while the slaughter’s creator coldly looked at them.
The light returned to where Aakesh stood, while the sword still raised in the air sent chills down the spine of Ligator, who had also prepared his ultimate move.
The move Aakesh was going to release was his mightiest in this training round, and he was going to use it for the first time today.
“Roar!”
Suddenly, a roar filled with anger and rage rang in the area as the Ligator made its move.
The Ligator, which was only around one mile, suddenly grew to ten miles, and at the same time, its injuries had also healed.
All six of the Ligator’s eyes turned cyan, and cyan blood started leaking from them. The blood, instead of falling to the ground, vaporized from the heat currently released by the Ligator.
The next moment, the Ligator made its move.
Its speed attained its zenith. While it still looked to be standing where it was, in reality, it had already reached Aakesh.
Even Aakesh failed to follow the Ligator’s movement. Aakesh knew he needed to fight using his senses.
The Ligator’s speed was quick, but unfortunately for it, it was no match for Aakesh’s attack speed.
Aakesh’s cold eyes maintained their coldness as he gracefully brought his sword down.
“RUMBLE!!!”
The next moment, an explosion-like sound rang in the air as Aakesh and the Ligator’s ultimate skills clashed with each other. Even the space couldn’t handle the clash as its shards started raining down.
The space’s stability in the battle arena was equivalent to the round of battle, so the clash of these ultimate moves had already surpassed the limit.freew ebnov el
Since Aakesh was in close proximity when the explosion happened, he found himself getting knocked back with an unimaginable force.
He looked like a kite as he flung through the air while the sky was raining with space shards.
Time flew by.
A few seconds after the clash, the effects of the clash finally disappeared.
The system restored the space to its usual, while a pit presented itself in place of the arena.
Aakesh was currently floating at the edge of the arena, which was now a pit. He was in a life-threatening situation, with two-thirds of his body entirely gone.
His brain and heart were intact, so he was alive. If even one of the two had gotten hit, he would have died. It was only due to Aakesh’s efforts, as he was very close to dying when he had gotten impacted by the explosion.
The next moment, a blue light engulfed the pit, while a green light surrounded Aakesh.
The Ligator, who was at the end of the pit, finally died after struggling for the past few seconds and gave Aakesh his second sixteenth round win. At the same time, his streak of losing the sixteenth round also came to an end.
The green light surrounding Aakesh started healing him. All the poisonous effects which had earlier stopped Aakesh from healing seemed to be nothing in comparison to the green light as the injuries disappeared at an unimaginable speed.
In no time, Aakesh, the same as the start of the battle, appeared in a field of blue light.
As a result of winning this battle, Aakash ended his consecutive streak of winning the sixteenth round of the fight, but he wasn’t happy with the way the fighting had played out.
Aakesh survived by a nick only in the sixteenth round, so winning in the seventeenth round seemed almost impossible for the current him.
The result of the sixteenth round of battle had proceeded similarly to the way it had gone when Aakesh had used the sword a few months earlier. At that time also, Aakesh had survived with only a nick.
But Aakesh didn’t feel that he hadn’t grown in battle. If Aakesh were to compare today’s match with that day, he would rate today’s fight as ten and the previous sixteenth round as nine.
The difference between the previous opponent and the Divine Ligator was vast since the Ligators loved to battle. Due to their excessive interest in it, they were also usually far more capable than their counterparts at the same level.
The same wasn’t the case for Aakesh’s previous opponent. It was a race that descended from the third dimension and was strong in battle, but it wasn’t that much compared to the Divine Ligator.
The next moment, the familiar blue screen popped out in front of Aakesh, stopping him from comparing the two battles.
Aakesh taking a deep breath tapped on the blue screen.
The next moment, the blue light receded, disappearing entirely from the arena.
The arena for the seventeenth round of battle saw around a hundredfold growth, as its range increased from three hundred miles to fifty thousand miles.
“ROAR!”
Suddenly, a roar filled with majesty rang in the battle arena, taking away Aakesh’s concentration.
Aakesh turned around, and his opponent presented itself.
The Divine Ligator had grown in size, but it wasn’t as outrageous as a hundredfold. The earlier Ligator spanned over one mile, while the current Divine Ligator covered a range of around five miles.
The number of its claw-like feet saw an increase in this round, as they grew to eighteen from twelve, while the pair of eyes saw a reduction. The current Ligator only had a single pair of eyes.
It was an evolved form of the Divine Ligators when their bloodline evolved. Out of billions of LIgators, only one could evolve, so the evolved Ligator was also called Divine Royal Ligator.
[Ding!]
Soon, the bell rang and announced the start of the battle.
A few seconds later, Aakesh appeared in the selection area. The Divine Royal Ligator used its full power right from the start since it wanted to win as soon as possible.
The difference between the sixteenth and seventeenth rounds was vast. It wasn’t something that could be done with a few months of battles even for Aakesh, so the power gap between the duo was seen right from the start.
The Ligator made all the offensive moves, while Aakesh only defended himself from the attacks. The situation didn’t continue for long as the Ligator overpowered Aakesh and killed him.
