Listen While Reading: Well Matched-----
Ultimus wasn’t fine right now; thanks to Belze’s curses and poison, he had been growing weaker over time, and even after he mao defeat her, the curses and poison inside of him tinued spreading the more he fought. The energy he maniputed only made these deadly powers spread.
There was no knowledge about such curses or poison before; this was because they were mixed with Murim’s Curse and Poison teiques, which worked much differently! They targeted a foe’s meridians, their internal flow of energy, their physiques, and even how their abilities worked.
Belze, who thought her curses were perfe their lethality and cruelty, suddenly came to the realization she had yet to even reach their truest power, and with Bing Xue’s scrolls teag her eiques, her powers increased to pletely new, ridiculous levels.
Although she ended up dying, her Demonic Soul and her Mask were already rec ihe book she was stored in within Bing Xue’s Demonic Library; her sciousness was still there. She smiled, giggling.
“Heheh~ I bet that bastard must be w why his curse and poison had not gone away after my death... Ki is sure an amazing energy, huh?” she thought. “Now the only thi is to sy him… That orc dy that master fancied a lot—I'll leave that task to her, I suppose. After all, she’s the one who wanted revehe most, right? Hmm, I wonder how she’ll repay Master once everything is done~? Seeing how the master has two wives, maybe a third wouldn’t be so bad- Wait, I be the fourth, I wonder?”
As the demon drowned in her own fantasies, the fight between Mursha and Ultimus began. Mursha immediately attacked him using her giant axe, unleashing a deadly cleave that pierced the skies and the ground, shaking the entire world.
SLAAASH!
“Dammit!”
Ultimus groaned, gritting his sharp teeth as he quickly tried to evade, only to be quickly caught by Mursha’s uedly led attacks as her cleaving blow tinued moving for several meters, hitting him with an almost area-of-effect attack!
“What?!
BOOOM!
This was, of course, pletely different from her previous attag patterns and teiques! Ultimus was utterly shocked. Mursha had never wielded the power of her abilities in such a way before, and it was all because of the new Developing Divinity that she took from Obsidian as her victory prize.
Through these Shadows, she was able to extend the range of her attacks and expand their areas of effect, greatly giving her an advantage no other warrior purely specializing in physical power held!
“What’s wrong, Ultimus? Has age finally gotten to you?!” Mursha roared. “After all these years… Just how long have you lived? You’re the same age as the Barbarian God, aren’t you?”
Mursha reached Ultimus, swinging her gigantic axe against him and unleashing a barrage of powerful cleaving blows. The eight-armed red iant swung his fists, g against her attacks aing the immense force using his sheer prowess and divine energies.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
“What… are you talking about?!” Ultimus muttered, as if pretending to not know.
“I know very well what you did! You’re the ohat created that God!” roared Mursha. “You and your damribe, the four-armed red orcs of the Voliorth, you sacrificed ten thousand of your people to give birth to the God of War and Bloodshed!”
“T-That’s…!” Ultimus screamed, incapable of believing that Mursha knew such a thing!
Memories fshed through his mind in that very moment—memories when he was nothing but a child, as he saw tless people have their hearts taken out of their chests, as he saw their souls mixing together in an unholy ritual where both sacrifices and dark magic mixed together.
“SHUT UP! YOU DON’T KNOW SUCH A THING! STOP PRETENDING!”
Ultimus grew furious aless! He believed he was the only o from his tribe at the moment, after over three hundred years sihe Barbarian God was born.
He swung his arms and suddenly amassed his divine powers i gigantic swords, which he used to attack Mursha eight times at the same time, with explosions of divinity and ki erupting as the two warriors fought. Mursha defended herself as she was slowly being pushed back.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
“How do I know that?! Well, my guardian told me!”
“Guardian?!”
Mursha jumped into the skies using wings made of shadows and desded rapidly, her axe glowing with bd red auras, bining together as the figure of a huge wolf emerged from within all her blood runes.
He wasn’t anymore with her, but his powers remained; what was left of his divine spiritual strength, he left it all on Mursha, further awakening her powers.
“Who else but the one you tried to kill so much? The one who you had to go as far as killing my entire family to sy?!”
“AWOOOOO!”
Her wolf-like aura howled as Ultimus eyes widened in utter disbelief! Even though the wolf was gone, his presence, powers, and aura remained.
“T-The Bloodfang Wolf! That dam! H-How?! I was sure he died with-”
CRAAASH!
Before he could say another word, Mursha rushed down, cleaving through his chest and rushing down her axe towards his stomach! Ultimus screamed in agony, incapable of believing she was able to pierce through his divine physique.
“UUGGH?! YOU BASTARD!”
With a furious and maddening scream, all eight of his swords rushed towards Mursha, unleashing a storm of sshing attacks and explosions of divine fmes and pushing the orc warrioress away.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
CLAAASH!
Mursha was covered in dozens of deadly slig wounds, yet she smiled, her runes growing strohe more damage she took and the more blood she lost.
To the Bloodfang Tribe, the more wouhey were, it didn’t mean that their lives were ing to an end.
It simply meant that their true power was finally ing out!
“The Bloodfang Wolf lives in every member of the Bloodfang Tribe!” Mursha roared, putting herself on almost all fours, resembling a feast as her aura shaped into fur-like leather clothes resembling the pelt of a wolf; even the ferocious head of a wolf covered her head. “You killed everyone, except me! He remained withihis eime, he had been watg over me! And I learhe truth i moments as he shared all his memories with me! What he saw—what your traitorous tribe did to this world! And how you sold yourselves to those bastards! The ohat taught you the ritual to create your ideal god!”
“The wolf was alive?!” muttered Ultimus. “And she knows way too much! How did he... that damn spirit! He was able to see all of that?! The in of our cult, the sacrifiy family to finally create our own god… I thought that truth was buried underground by now! I shouldn’t have let her live, I shouldn’t have been merciful with that damn child!”
FLASH!
Mursha reached Ultimus, her giant axe moving down towards him. His wounds had yet tee, and no potions worked on the horrendous wound she left over his entire chest.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Three cleaving blows reached him; Ultimus evaded the first one, but the other two quickly found him even when he ran away from her range. Mursha’s shadows merged with her attacks, as two cleaving blows sshed across his back.
SLAAASH! SLAAASH!
“Aaaggh!”
Two of his eight arms were sliced apart, rolling over the floor and leaving behind a rge quantity of blood. The Mursha in disbelief; his magid powers were tinuously growing weaker, while Mursha seemed to have endless energy!
“While Bing Xue is killing your damn god, I’ll make sure to behead you food, you bastard! e here!” Mursha roared.
“STOP THIS!”
Ultimus screamed, quickly standing up and swinging his bdes, unleashing several powerful teiques. Mursha greeted them with her own, cleaving and sshing her way through endless explosions of divinity.
“Dammit!”
The red orc screamed, gathering divine magic power into his hands and then using his own blood as a on, creating several explosive blood spears and firing them at Mursha.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Mursha used her pelt-like aura armor to protect herself, but that still took her a couple of seds, which Ultimus took to reach her all the way from behind, his swords sshing across her back.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
“Ugh!”
His attacks were strong, but far from being pletely lethal. The thing is, Mursha noticed his swrinding against her right arm! He aimed to slice her dexterous arm so she wouldn’t be able to easily wield her on, signifitly weakening her in the process.
“I’ll take this arm with me, you damn bitch! I should have killed you back then, when you were weak and pathetic! I should have raped you and cut you down into pieces! YOU FILTHY ANIMAL!”
“The only filthy animal is YOU!”
Mursha’s arm muscles tightened, suddenly ing around the bdes, trying to cut through her bone, and with a shockwave of mana, primal power, ki, and spirit energy, shattering all the bdes.
“HAAAH!”
Crack, crack…!
CRAAASH!
“What?!”
Ultimus eyes widened, incapable of believing how powerful Mursha had bee! And this teique was all thanks to Primal Power, a special energy capable of strengthening the physical body to pletely superhuman levels. Muscles, bones, skin, flesh, and everythied to the physical body could be turned incredibly powerful and strengthened, and also maniputed in many incredible ways, such as using her muscles aloo shatter the bdes trying to slice through them!
“Fuck off from my sight, you bastard!”
Mursha kicked Ultimus in the fad pushed him away with tremendous force, breaking most of his teeth aroying his lower jaw in the process, while one of his eyes popped and his nose broke.
BAAAM!
“Aarrgh!”
Ultimus fell like a bzieor into the ground, shattering the floor beh him and creating a crater in the process. His body was wounded beyond belief, and above all else, he suddenly realized he had lost yet another pair of arms!
“W-When…?!”
Suddenly, he noticed that, as Mursha walked towards him, there were two arms made of shadows and her own blood aura grabbing two arms, which they had just torn apart from him.
“Missing these?”
Mursha threw his sliced arms back at him before her giant axe sliced them apart into tless small fleshy pieces.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
“Aaaahhhh…! Y-You’re such a monster! YOU BEAST!”
Ultimus was pletely shocked, incapable of believing the savagery of Mursha’s acts, despite being the cult leader of a cult that worshiped a god of bloodshed, war, and barbarism.
“This is just like the pot calling out the kettle…” ughed Mursha. “I am the monster born from all the people you’ve hurt and all the is you’ve killed. I’ve already learned my true purpose. I am here to finally end it all, to avehe fallen, and to destroy your pathetic cult! And I will NOT stop until I see your head rolling on the ground, ULTIMUS!”
Mursha didn’t stop, rushing towards him as her entire Aura erupted, resembling dozens of giant wolves and their sharp jaws, reag Ultimus and attag him.
The now four-armed red orc quickly stood up, divine power fring through his entire body as he used everything he had, even to the extent of ing his own lifespan tain some of his strength, and then cshed against Mursha again.
“RAAAHHHH!!!”
With four more arms made of pure divine power and his entire body covered in divine runes, while a divine halo emerged above his head, Ultimus unleashed all of his divine god powers at once.
Reag Mursha, all of his bzing fists hit her directly, at a speed Mursha could barely dis! Before she k, her entire body had received dozens of blows, leaving behind ugly, burned scars.
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
“Ungh?!” Mursha groaned in pain. “He moved so fast! So he still had some more power hidden as a trump card, this bastard!”
eling her energies and bining them together, Mursha quickly spun in midair at the same time as Ultimus tinued hitting her, her axe helping her block the blows while unleashing a storm of blood aura and shadows.
“{Divine Bloodfang Axe Arts}: {Blood Shadow Storm}!”
FLUOOOSH!
“Agh…! Dammit!” Ultimus screamed, caught iorm of attacks. “How is this possible?! My blows should have easily left holes through her, but she’s… so damn tough!”
As Ultimus and Mursha tiheir relentless, blood-pumping battle, the skies darkened, as the frustrated screams of many gods sin by Bing Xue reverberated. And then, of the Barbaria God himself, a gigantic cataclysm suddenly hit the entire world of Elios.
“IF I HAVE TO DESTROY THE ENTIRE WORLD, I WILL! AS LONG AS I KILL YOUUUUU!”
Ultimus smiled with fasation as he saw the entire world of Elios beginning to break apart, giant voloes drowning the once beautiful grassnds with magma, and a monstrous and aberra surged from the ever-growing body of his god.
“Haha… HAHAHA! He’s doing it! My god shall create a utopia of bloodshed and war!”
“What?!”
