The Primal King slowly advanced on top of his titanic steed. His sharp eyes looked into the distahe “wounds” within spad time that he and his army had e from were three in total. Oo the north, ao the south, where he had e from, and the st ohe third "Wound,” was located to the east.
They were all very far away from one another, and two of them seemed to be growing smaller over time. The one where he had e from, however, was maintaining its size. Being a member of the Brute Tribe, he was rather smart; he quickly realized something.
The more the dinosaurs and cavemen that came from the Gates died, the smaller they became. Meaning that the existence of this portal that brought them to another world seemed depe on the very people and creatures it brought.
Killing enough would probably close them!
And he couldn’t let that happen.
“Ungah!”
With a roar, he anded a dozen cavemen that were behind him, his stro warriors, who were at least twice as rge as the other cavemen. They all jumped off the giant brachiosaurus, rushing towards battle.
At the same time, he looked at the distance, admiring the chimeric aberration ing from the portal to the north. He was using a very basic strategy, but ohat had worked tless times throughout his life.
He was going to do a pitack, overwhelming the city from the north and south. With his army of giant Scaled Lords, savage Cavemen, and the monstrous Chimeriosaur, he would crush everything and anything.
However, he couldn’t be pletely fident in his victory; after all, he had been seeing a strange pear and disappear all the time, helping all the little humans that died so easily against his men as.
He squinted his eyes, Primal Power surging through his body, his already enormous muscles beginning to grer and stronger, preparing for a csh against her.
Yet…
FLASH!
A bck spear suddenly rushed towards him from behind, and his senses heightehe Primal King quickly twisted his body, stepping backward and grabbing the spear before it could even hit him.
CLASH!
His eyes g a mass of darkness and red eyes. Holding the spear tightly and imbuing it with Mana, a sudden explosion happened before he could even dis who his foe was.
BOOOM!
“Hmph… Weak.”
However, the Primal King was unscathed; the explosion that could easily kill most S-Rank Monsters didn’t even leave a single scrat his body.
His sharp golden eyes looked upwards. A young man appeared amidst the cloud of darkness, one of his eyes shining with gray light, its iris resembling a clock.
“You took an attack imbued with Abyssal Energy head-on?” The young man wondered.
It was nobody else thah, the Regressor.
After having heard of a sudden invasion of New York, he rushed to help, finding the catastrophe that was happening right now.
He rushed across the myriad of giant dinosaurs, w what in the world was happening. Killing oer another, he reached who he imagined was the Boss.
The Primal King.
A mighty, muscur caveman stands above the rgest brachiosaurus.
“Pitiful… Tiny human.” The Primal King, despite being a Brute who mostly unicated with groans, spoke rather well. “Your tricks… Won’t work.”
“Where did you e from? What is happening right now?!” Seth muttered.
Within the memories of the future, Seth had never seen su oute happening at all! There was no suvasion from any cavemen before, nor were there giant, overpowered dinosaurs roaming New York’s outskirts.
“I shall quer this world... It will be mine!” Laughed the Primal King, kig the scales where he was standing and pushing the brachiosaurus into the floor.
With a single kick, the giant dinosaur had its neck dislocated, but the ruthless barbarian didn’t care, using his own steed as a ptform to fly into the skies with sheer physical prowess.
Seth’s Eye of Time activated, seeing fragments of the future.
His eyes widened.
The Primal King moved his fists at lightning speed; his entire body was hit a dozen times.
He exploded into pieces before he could do anything!
“Shit!”
Seeing the future within a split sed, Seth decided to evade, turning his body into Abyssal Shadows, a skill he had acquired from synthesizing the Dark Wyver, the Abyss Goblin’s Blood, and the Dark Spirit Stoogether into a Special Skill Book.
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
The Primal King ended up hitting the empty air as Seth disappeared into an explosion of bck smoke. However, his sharp senses activated once more, quickly kig the air and rushing down, his hands overflowing with the Golden Essence of Primal Power.
BAAAM!
Seth was uo predict this; his eyes worked on a cooldown of 3 seds, and his ethereal body was hit instantly, exploding into bck smoke. He felt his physical body being hurt, even within his seemingly invincible form!
“What…?! ARGH…!”
He quickly gathered back his shadows as he was forcefully turned bato his inal form, finding out several of his bones had broken.
However, how could that even be possible?!
“This transformation turns my body pletely ethereal! Unless he used powerful holy light magic, he shouldn’t have been able to hurt me at all!” He thought. “Was I wrong this eime?! Are there monsters out there capable of ign such things with just sheer physical prowess?!”
“UNGAH!”
The Primal King rushed towards Seth once more. His eye of time activated as he saw a glimpse of the future. The Primal King grabbed his head and easily tore it apart from his body, biting it afterward aing his brain like a savage ibal.
“Fuck!”
Seth roared furiously, his Spear overflowing with Abyssal Energies. As a dozen magic circles appeared around him, a bombardment of bzieors rushed down. The surrounding dinosaurs were immediately roasted and crushed alive, but the Primal King tahe meteors and puhem into pieces as he kept kig the air and reag closer to him!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
“What is this guy?!”
Seth had never fronted a being capable of overing everything with just strength. It felt surreal because his on sense dictated that everything was always tied to the System and Mana!
Yet the being in front of him had no such Mana!
“Petty tricks… reminds me of Children of Fire… pathetic people! HAHAHA!”
The King of Brutes swung his legs, which were already like lethal ons, and an immense shockwave was unleashed. His strength was so powerful that he broke the sound barrier and maniputed the surrounding winds, creating a slig bde that rushed towards him.
And this was no magic at all; this was merely a ridiculous dispy of overwhelming prowess.
BAAAM!
“Uagh!”
Seth was uo evade; his Abyssal Shadow Transformation was on cooldowook the hit head-on; his armor was broken instantly; his chest was sliced; and blood spttered everywhere.
“Pathetic little rat.”
The Primal King appeared behind him, his fist rushing down towards Seth's head.
“Ah?!”
Seth widened his eyes, suddenly feeling fear.
He, the Regressor, was afraid!
A single punch blew him away; his entire body fell from several hundreds of meters in the sky down into the forests below, leaving a huge crater behind.
BAAAM!
“Graargh…!”
Seth vomited blood; he felt his innards twist and turn; most of his bones broke; his legs were twisted; and his arms were torn down.
“F-Fuck…!”
He bit something he had attached to his teeth, a white pill, swallowing it.
FLASH!
His entire body was quickly restored within seds, and not only that.
Ding!
[You have ed the [White Fme Phoenix Pill (SSS Rank)], and all your wounds have been instantly healed!]
[All your Stats have increased based on the amount of damage your body has taken x100 for the 5 Minutes.]
The White Fme Phoenix Pill is synthesized by bining twenty different types of lesser phoenix bird magic cores, blood, and souls.
It took him so long to make it, and he had prepared it only for his very st resource, but right now, he couldn’t spare resources.
“UNGAAAH!”
The Primal King rushed down after notig he was still alive, his foot about to crush Seth to death. The young man turned into Abyssal Shadows, evading a powerful attack, before appearing behind the Primal King, his spear fring with phantasmal fmes and abyssal fmes.
“RAAAH!”
With a furious roar, Seth unleashed a barrage of attacks. The Primal King attempted to intercept them, but Seth surpassed his rea speed, and above all, the strikes began to hurt!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
“UGH?!”
The Primal King opened his eyes wide as he felt pain, feeling wounds behind his bad blood slowly dripping. He was utterly shocked. It has been over a hundred years sihe st time he ever felt pain. Since he reached the pinnacle of his world, he has never been challenged!
Yet now…
He smiled!
“Hahahaha! GOOD!”
He intercepted Seth’s attacks, his fists fring with his Primal Power, resembling golden fmes. Fists against spear attacks and magic spells. stant explosions of darkness and golden aura erupted with each blow, and the ndscape around the two began to quickly ge shape.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The Primal King only ughed and smiled as his arms were covered with wounds. Seth was much worse. Despite the immense boost of power, his muscles were already slowly being torn apart. To intercept and bloe of the Primal King’s blows was to feel his muscles being torer another!
“Fuck! What with this motherfucker?!”
Seth was growing desperate and furious, quickly kig the Primal King’s chest and throwing him away a few dozeers before jumping into the skies himself and taking out arump card.
A Regressor must have as many trump cards as possible!
“Fuck this! {Sacrificial Ritual}!”
He took out of his Iory a white jewel, shining with Divinity. An item he acquired by digging into the ruins where Bing Xue had killed a giant Angelic Spirit, and then harnessing all the leftover ambient divinity into this crystal.
It took him a lot of effort and resources as he required many specific gadgets, but this divinity crystal was something that he could use as yet arump card, but only when sacrificed with his Skill: [Sacrificial Ritual].
A Skill that could seal and overpower a foe the higher the quality of the thing you sacrificed was!
Ah sacrifiothing else but a divinity crystal.
“As strong as you are, you ’t be strohan a God.”
Seth smiled as the Primal King rushed towards him, but the ritual had already started.
FLASH!
“GUH?!”
The Primal King saw himself surrounded by white s, ing around his entire body and pushing him bato the ground. The divinity crystal disappeared as the Primal Ki his strength being slowly sapped away.
“GRAAAH!”
[You have sacrificed the [Divinity Crystal (SSS Rank)] using the [Sacrificial Ritual (S): Lv10] Skill!]
[Your target has been affected by the highest-level divine rank, {s of Divine Sealing}!]
[Your target’s stats have decreased drastically!]
[Your target is paralyzed!]
[Duration: 10 Minutes.]
“Game over, motherfucker.”
Seth smiled triumphantly, rushing down towards the Primal King, aiming his spear towards his head. The Primal Ki r like a beast, his entire body swelling up more and more, steam ing out of his sweaty muscles as he began to overexert his physical limitations.
CLASH!
But Seth’s spear hit his head as an explosion of abyssal fmes engulfed the barbaric caveman.
“It should be done by now... I better get enough EXP for this- Huh?”
Seth suddenly felt his spear stu something.
The smoke dissipated, revealing something terrifying.
The Primal King caught his spear’s bde with his owh and began to gnaw at it, slowly shattering it.
Crack, crack…
CRASH!
“What…?!”
Seth saw the future, a fist pierg his chest.
He quickly jumped back as he heard the s breaking down.
He turned into shadows.
Or, well, he tried.
“UNGAAH!”
The Primal King’s entire body had bee pletely red, his eyes glowing gold.
Within a split sed, he caught up to Seth, and before he could even turn into shadows, his fist reached his head.
CRASH!
Ah’s entire skull exploded into pieces.
His headless, lifeless body dropped to the floor.
With little time to prepare, the Regressor was uo overe this challenge.
And failed.
“Worthy human, f me... to push my limits.” The Primal King smiled as he grabbed a piece of Seth's brain and was about to take a bite.
Before a fsh of golden light covered his face.
“Guh…?!”
And both of his hands were sliced off.
“I’ve seen enough.”
The Primal King looked into the skies.
A beautiful woman, made of pure light, appeared.
“The Primal King, was it? You’re dying now.”
“RAAAH!”
