Divine Path System

The sky above Pluto continued to twist and crack as the land under it split, wind under it swirled into terrifying tornadoes and the water bodies caused floods.

And the ash'¦

Blue Flash could see the ash rising into the air by the tornadoes from time to time.

That was the ash of the billion humans. Killed and burned.

At the thought of their pain and suffering, her heart sank and her killing intent exploded.

With bloodshot eyes, she glared at Dorak. And with a snap, the space around him exploded into pieces.

Boom!

The fragmented space twisted and in the next moment, Dorak's figure appeared above Blue Flash.

He covered himself with space power, forming a space armor, and punched down at her.

Whoosh!

The air split like it was cleaved by an ax and the sheer force caused fierce winds that toppled the nearby mountains.

Blue Flash didn't have the time for teleportation and met the punch with a counter-punch.

Kacha!

Boom!

The sounds of space cracking reverberated across Pluto and the next moment, a terrifying shockwave erupted at the point where their fists met.

Air was squeezed out, space was broken and a vacuum was formed.

The ground also had a huge crater as dust rose into the air, clearly because someone crashed in at a high speed.

The dust quickly rose to hundreds of meters and covered everything in sight.

Shaau!

A small, but powerful fist tore through the veil of dust and punched at Dorak.

Boom!

Dorak returned the punch and smiled at Blue Flash.

Boom!

Blue Flash staggered back in mid-air, before stabilizing herself.

Her left hand was swollen and her face was pale as blood dripped from the corner of her lips.

In the last exchange, she was the clear loser.

It was as it should be. After all, compared to him, a mid-level 9, she was a whole sub-level lower.

"Do you think I can't see what you're planning down?" Dorak suddenly said, intending to pause the conflict.

Boom!

The explosion of space was his answer.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The space around him constantly twisted and exploded under Blue Flash's expert manipulation.

Dorak cursed under his breath and resumed fighting.

His original plan was to keep her talking and secretly use his space power to kill Dreamer in the core facility.

But Blue Flash was aware of his true intentions. So, she continued the barrage of attacks, denying him any breathing space.

While he had an upper hand in their exchanges, he wasn't strong enough to kill her. If she really fought to survive, he'd need at least an hour to kill her.

And while he knew Dreamer infiltrated their core facility, facing against Blue Flash, he couldn't distract himself in the middle of a fight. If he tried, he'd be dead.

So, all he could do was fight.

"Fuck you! My men are there already. Dreamer will die!" Dorak growled as he countered Blue Flash's attacks.

Blue Flash's eyes flashed with worry, but she continued her relentless and almost reckless attacks.

Kaaa! Kacha!

With each attack, her injuries were mounting. Blood was drenching more and more of her clothes.

Her movements were also slightly, but surely slowing down.

If she really fought like this, she'd die in a few minutes.

'Dreamer'¦' Blue Flash muttered inside her mind and saw the floating ashes.

*** *** ***

The core facility was now in chaos as green and red blood formed puddles on the ground floor.

"Haa~ Haa~" Varian panted heavily as hundreds of overwhelming lightning bolts shot at him.

Zaap!

Zaap!

Using his body powers, Varian moved with inhumane flexibility and avoided the attacks.

At the same time, the space around an abyssal cracked and exploded.

Boom!

The abyssal quickly shielded himself with lightning armor, but it was too late as the space explosion devoured a good chunk of the abyssal's chest's flesh.

"Akkk!"

The abyssal clutched at his near-empty upper body and desperately grabbed for a healing potion.

"Not on my watch," Varian growled.

As the abyssal was still at a considerable distance, Varian condensed a lightning bolt and was about to shoot him down.

But right then, the other abyssals attacked him.

Varian started dodging their attacks while he shot a lightning arrow at the injured abyssal.

Boom!

The abyssal's head blew up like a watermelon bursting.

At the same time, Varian failed to dodge a lightning arrow. In the final moment, he raised his arms to shield himself.

Kacha!

Varian's arm bones were broken and the sheer amount of force sent him flying.

Bang!

He crashed against the wall and slowly slid down, coughing out blood. "Cough. Cough. Cough."

Looking at the twenty-nine abyssals'¦no, thirty including the latest one that just joined, Varian's heart sunk.

The ground floor literally oozed out of lightning mana'”the wind flashed sparks from time to time as the ground shone with golden lights.

The fight was intense, but at this rate, it'd go on forever.

Varian needed to do it quickly or many things could go wrong.

Bali might be seriously injured or even die'”then even if a single level 9 returned, he'd be fucked up.

Enigma could die'”leaving behind his personal responsibilities for her death, it'd mean level 8s would return. He'd be fucked up.

Blue Flash could be killed. And even if Dorak was heavily injured at the end, as a level 9, he could snap his fingers and kill Varian.

"Fuck! Fuck!" Varian cursed as he rolled to the side, dodging another barrage of lightning attacks.

Whips, thorns, swords, daggers'¦everything that could be thrown was thrown.

And more followed.

Varian saw the glowing red orbs and gritted his teeth.

"If this goes on, we'll all die."

Steeling his heart, Varian threw the ghostship ring and yelled. "Boo, stop the alpha orbs here and also the alpha orbs of these abyssals."

"Masteeeeer!" Boo's shocked scream resounded in his mind, but Varian's focus was on dodging the attacks.

The ghost ship ring flew out of the hole in the entrance and quickly enlarged to its original size and vanished.

"DO IT!"

Following his yell, Varian felt a strange wave wash over the room.

The red light from the alpha orbs started to dim.  The abyssals continued fighting.

Their alpha orbs stopped working. That meant what they were witnessing wouldn't be recorded.

The abyssals didn't know. So, they weren't scared.

On the contrary, their current mood was full of excitement.

"Dreamer, eh?" An abyssal said as he conjured up small lightning orbs and shot them at Varian.

The rest also followed.

Zaaap!

Varian sidestepped and communicated with Boo telepathically. 'Is it done?'

'Just a moment, master'¦.there are a few signals from abyssals Boo needs to block.' Boo said in an urgent voice.

'Hurry up.' Varian instructed as he rolled down and dodged a lightning spear.

Boom!

Seeing Dreamer's passive and increasingly weak response, the abyssal continued.  "When we were first sent here to fight you, I was scared. What level would you be? Turns out, you were just a level 6! Hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

The abyssals started laughing in contempt and ridicule but didn't stop attacking.

Thankfully, the ground floor was a large hall spanning several miles and Varian could dodge, despite being hit by a few attacks now and then.

So, he didn't fall for their provocations.

As he kept dodging, he waited for Boo's confirmation.

In those few seconds, he got two injuries on his chest and one on his back.

'Master, everything in the building is now blocked!'

Boom!

Varian dodged another attack and glanced at the abyssals. His lips curled up into a terrifying smile.

"Laughing? Why are you laughi'”?"

Xoak, The talkative abyssal stopped abruptly as his body started shaking.

The abyssals that were about to attack Varian froze abruptly and turned to Xoak.

Under their horrified gaze, Xoak's eyes turned white and a clicking sound reverberated across the hall.

"Whaaa'¦?" The abyssals' lightning sense showed them exactly where that sound came from.

Thud.

From the neck of the now collapsed Xoak's body.

His neck was snapped.

But'¦how?

"Hahahaha!" A burst of laughter that seemed so evil that even abyssals' archenemies'”Zions would run filled the room.

The abyssals turned their gaze back to Varian.

Due to what just happened, they didn't immediately attack him. Rather, they wanted to find out how he killed Xoak.  The mysteriousness of Dreamer evoked fear deep in their hearts.

So, they used their lightning senses on him to search for any clue.

Varian, on the other hand, opened a potion and downed it as if the abyssals didn't exist. His body still had a couple of injuries from the fight, big and small.

Even the potion would take time to heal them.

So, the abyssals didn't understand why he did that.

But the next second, their faces paled at the impossible sight.

Varian's body turned into branches and he exuded a huge vitality'¦he exuded prana.

After a few seconds, he turned back to normal.

The small injuries were gone and the big injuries were now controlled.

"H-How?" An abyssal asked with deep fear.

Dreamer already showed the powers of Body, Space, and Lightning.

So, how'¦..how was it possible for him to be a Morpher?

"You really want to know?" Varian's voice was filled with coldness as his lips curled up.

The abyssals nodded and in turn, Varian snapped his fingers.

Six distinct auras exploded from him.

It was time to test his full strength.
