Chapter 582: A New Weapon(1)

Aakesh turned to his left, dropped the bow, and picked up a new weapon.

Aakesh then turned to his right, selected a suitable environment for his training, and pressed the switch.

The next moment, the space cracked open in the form of a portal, and not long after, it sucked Aakesh inside.

The next moment, Aakesh appeared in a new area.

The area in which Aakesh appeared wasn't endless like his previous environments.

Aakesh appeared on a circular stage spanning over sixty meters. The ground wasn't concrete but made of mud which was slightly wet. Taking even a step forward without slipping down on the surface would be a challenge.

Aakesh looked at the weapon he had in his right hand.

It was a mace.

A mace was a weapon with a spherical head mounted on a shaft, and the head spiked on the top of the head.

The mace in Aakesh's hands was also the same. The spherical head had rings made up on it, with small to large from top to middle, and then large to small, from the mid-section to the bottom. The shaft and the head were golden in color, with only the tip being different. The spike was black with countless red needles adorning it.

The shaft and head were made of wood, while the spike was a metal.

Aakesh put the mace down with the spike touching the ground while Aakesh held the handle not to let it fall. The mace came from Aakesh's waist to the surface, showing its large size. The shaft was as thick as Aakesh's arms, while the head would put Aakesh's thighs to shame. The needle on the spike was sharp enough to pierce the mightiest of the items.

The mace weighed enough to sink the entire Anga continent down, but here despite the ground being wet mud, the mace had no effect on the surface.

Unlike other weapons where Aakesh didn't need to feel the weight as they were lighter than a leaf in Aakesh's hands due to their effects, the mace had no such ability. If Aakesh wanted to use it, he would need to utilize it by keeping the weight in mind.

The mace was a close-range weapon and was for physically strong people. Since Aakesh had already developed his physique to the limit, Aakesh felt nothing from the weight of the mace. This situation would continue until the battle didn't begin.

Since Aakesh was using the mace in training, despite having a physique more than enough to hold the mace, in the battle, Aakesh would feel the mace weight. It would be equal to half the amount of weight Aakesh could pick up at his peak strength.

Only a second had passed after Aakesh's appearance when the ground below Aakesh's feet started shaking.

Aakesh stood stable as this intensity wasn't strong enough even to budge the tip of his finger, let alone his body.

A few meters away from Aakesh, suddenly the wet mud from the ground started rising higher and higher.

On the stage, only the length and width were limited, but the altitude wasn't. In no time, the height of the mud reached almost a hundred meters, and it still continued.

Only after reaching an altitude of more than five hundred meters did the rising of the mud finally came to stop.

Aakesh's face suddenly turned cold as he picked the mace up and pointed it toward the height. The weight of the mace suddenly appeared, but Aakesh stood stable as his veins almost started showing up.

"ROAR!"

The next moment, a roar filled with a wave of unbridled anger rang in the area since Aakesh pointing out the mace toward it was a humiliating insult to whoever was behind the mud peak.

Aakesh didn't care as he forced some strength into his legs and took a jump.

In no time, Aakesh appeared right in front of the tip of the mud and smashed the mace to it.

"BOOM!"

The next moment, an explosion-like sound rang in the area. Aakesh's smash bore no fruit as the scene stayed the same as it was a moment earlier.

Aakesh wanted to take another hit, but suddenly the gravity on the ground grew as it pulled Aakesh down.

"Crash!"

The next moment, Aakesh crashed to the ground with a large sound.

The stage spanning over thirty meters was a stage for Aakesh to train his mace where not only the surface but the environment was also against him.

"ROAR!"

The next moment, a roar louder and angrier than before rang in the area as suddenly the mud descended on Aakesh at an incredible speed.

Aakesh put some strength into his legs again as he jumped straight from that spot with the spike facing the mud descending toward him.

"BOOM!"

"CRASH!"

The next moment, the explosion-like sound rang again, and soon, a crashing sound devoured the explosion.

"CRASH!!!"

The crashing sound hadn't even subsided when suddenly a sound loud enough to shake several Universes at once rang in the area as the mud descended on Aakesh.

Aakesh face turned cold as the impact was stronger than anticipated. The entire might of the clash was forced to hit a single point, and it was him.

Aakesh didn't let the descending mud crush him into a pulp as suddenly the spike of his mace started shining in white.

"BOOM!"

"BOOM!"

"BOOM!"

The next moment, a continuous explosion rang in the area as the mud flew all around the stage. The needles flew all around Aakesh, and whenever they clashed with the impact, it resulted in a loud explosion, throwing the mud as if it was nothing but only a paper.

Aakesh had an expressionless face as the creature hidden behind the mud finally presented itself.

It was a creature made up of mud, with arms and thighs so bulkier that even the combined thighs of Aakesh would look like a stick in comparison to the arm.

The creature had the same height as Aakesh, but it covered a larger area than Aakesh on the ground. It also had a mace on its hands, made entirely of the mud.

"ROAR!!!"

The creature roared in anger as it had to appear in front of Aakesh. Nothing could be more humiliating for it to fail to kill Aakesh despite having the support of the mud.
