{Spiritual Fusion}!
A ueique that Urbosa ae had just discovered as they cultivated both Mana, Ki, and Spiritual Energy together.
Usually, every beast-kin would develop their own Spiritual Magic, it was often the simplest elemental spirit magic, but there were rare cases where talented people could create tracts with spirits or evee spirits themselves, such as Hekita.
However, although Urbosa ae showed the most basic ability to just gain magical power and strength through spiritual energy, as they tinued cultivating and improving themselves, eventually...
Something was born.
Within their Elemental Spiritual Core, a new power blossomed as they reached Rank 5. Each Rank of Cultivation granted a special ability to the wielder, which could also ma into even more different powers based on their initial talents.
And the talents of Spiritual Energy and Mana were often never variables inally, surprising Bing Xue each time the cultivation of her disciples resulted much differently than it should.
Whewins reached Rank 3, they fed Spiritual Beast Physiques of tremendous power, enhang their spiritual powers and even granting them something called Spirit Bodies, a sed body made of spirit that, when merged with their inal body, could double their stats or make them go even higher.
At Rank 4, they reached the Martial Soul Realm, awakening a Martial Soul. Their soul ged, being incredibly powerful and attaining the power to ma outside of their body. With this, they were able to enpass themselves in their elements, which their Martial Soul had absorbed, being Elemental Spiritual Martial Soul.
And ohey reached Rank 5, the highest Rank anybody taught by Bing Xue had reached, they attaihe Martial Aura Realm, the power to bihe Martial Soul with their Physique, geing a mighty Aura that enpass the body and bee solid.
And through the natural ability of their Aura, further merged and upgraded with their Spiritual Powers, a new Ability maed within their growing Elemental Core.
And that was {Spiritual Fusion}!
The ability to biheir Souls and Physiques maed in their ability to biheir Spiritual Powers, which, because they were already ected to their bodies and souls, practically helped the twins bee a siity, adding each other’s powers into a single being and fusing all their skills and teiques as well.
Although a temporary form, its preseself was already frightening!
RUMBLE!
The skies above rumbled as heaven ah trembled and shook. Leos' eyes widened as he noticed his sword was stopped from reag the twins by their bare hands!
CLASH!
“What?!”
As his mighty sword was blocked by her bare hands, the figure of the entity that was born from the fusion of Urbosa ae emerged, and the smoke dissipated, revealing a tall wolf woman whose fur had bee pletely silver, with bck patches across her shoulders, legs, and arms.
She was over five meters tall, with a mighty, muscur frame and a feminiy akin to that of a beast goddess. With fe arms covered with glistening silver fur and sharp, bck cws, her long tail waved by the wind produced by her body, long and fluffy, ending on a bck-colored tip.
The armor the twins were wearing didn’t disappear, fusing together as they merged, as Bing Xue had modified their ons to possess Spiritual Power as well, fusing together ohey used Spiritual Fusion.
A golden armor covered several parts of their body, resembling giant dragon scales emanating thunder and winds, and even their spears fused into a single, enormous spear with a sharp bde at ead.
“How did you…?!” Leos muttered, feeling the intense presence of Divine Power within them.
Yes, Divine Power!
Although it was quite faint, because the twins had reached Rank 5, and were only one Rank from reag Rank 6, the Realm of Immortals, their power was now evolving.
A spark of immortality surged from within their very being, bined as one, with spiritual and elemental energies further mixing up with Ki and Mana.
Now, they were quite even.
“Do you think you have the time to talk?”
The giant wolf goddess spoke with a furious tone of voice, her voice the bination of both Urbosa ae’s voices together. As she stopped Leos’ sword, her hand tightened, and then her sharp cws shattered the on instantly.
Crack, crack…!
CRASH!
“Huh?!”
As the sword was reduced to mere fragments in front of the prideful warrior, he quickly and desperately summoned a hundred swords of spiritual light, mixing them with the divine power of his armor, formerly a sword, and the divine blessing of the barbarian god given to him.
“Don’t you dare mock me! {Holy Spiritual Bde Rain}!”
The wolf goddess gnced as hundreds of swords reached her; the four eyes she possessed, two gold and two emerald, seemed to emanate a different aura altogether.
She wasn’t the same as before.
“Mog you? I am doing no such thing.”
With a mere thought, her Aura surged, a mighty shockwave simir to an {Immortal I} surged from her body, and thunder and winds bined into a powerful storm, destroying the projectiles ing towards her.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As they exploded in midair without ever reag her, the fusion reached Leos, her four eyes shining with divine spiritual energy.
“Leos, former King of the Beast Tribes... Your time is due! You will now pay for your sins!”
As she reached him, Leos desperately unleashed his powerful Aura, resembling a group of dozens of r golden lions, attag the fusion with cws, fangs, and beams of spiritual light.
“SHUT UP!”
With a mighty roar, the former king of the beast tribes cshed against Merkite and Urbosa, now fused as a siity. Her cws, legs, and spear pierced through his maed aura with ease, tearing apart and beheading the lions, and then reag his side once more, moving at lightning speed as her body suddenly became pure thunder and wind.
“For all of those that have died... For all the is that have been ensved and killed because of your betrayal, because of your selfishness!”
“SILENCE!”
Leos twisted his body barely in time, intercepting an ining barrage of blows with his steel cws, only to realize the twins bined spear easily pierced through them, leaving tless holes across his body.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
“Ugh?!”
His hands were torn apart, and so were his arms, destroyed as explosions of thunder and winds engulfed most of his body. Then the spear reached his throat, about to finish him off.
“NOOO!”
With a furious aly roar, he opened his jaws, biting the spear as thunder and winds stantly ravaged his face, only for his sword’s melted form to tinue repg more and more of his body.
“I won’t die! I AM THE KING OF THE BEASTS!!!”
His armor erupted with all his power at once, geing a giant shockwave of light that lightly pushed Urbosa ae’s fusion a few meters, the twins notig the former king’s body having mutated even more, eveerior of his mouth and his flesh merging with the liquid gold of the sword.
“Grahhh… GRAAAARRRGH!”
He had gone mad with power; the divi spirit powers imbued into the sword, now turned into armor, were going pletely crazy. Perhaps the st beastly instincts left behind by the divi spirit they used to make this sword were n to take him over as a vessel of destru and vengeance.
Now resembling a giaalliade of bd gold metal, Leos rushed towards the twins, shattering the ground around him and making the skies rumble. The twins intercepted his powerful bite attacks with explosions of thunder and winds as they jured giant swords of their bined elements.
“This is what happens because you’ve used the body parts of a divi spirit to make a on!” they roared in unison. “You’ve transgressed reatest traditions and desecrated the very beings that once protected us, SINFUL BEAST!”
With their power unified as oheir spear grew several times rger, spinning around and pierg through Leos' body dozens of times, leaving holes that were being rapidly regeed over and ain. Leos attacked back with tless cws and beams of light. The two divis cshed above the skies, stantly shaking them, and explosions of elements covered the heavens.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
“GRAAARRRGGH!”
The relentless lion reached the fused twins, grabbing them with its giant cws and trying to devour their faces off with their massive, metallic jaws. Within its crimsohe two noticed tears ing out. Not from Leos, but from the Divi Spirit that had been turned into a monstrosity.
“Nnnggh…! Five me!”
While gritting their teeth, their giant and muscur arms lifted, their hands reag the massive metallic head and then twisting it with tremendous, thunderous force, tearing off Leos head off and then blowing it up with thunder and winds!
BOOOM!
For a moment, the body stopped moving and fell from the skies, showing the wounded, headless neck of Leos bleeding out over the grassnds.
“Hahh… Hahh… we did it?” they wondered. “This… Ah!”
RUMBLE!
However, in that very moment, a shockwave of spiritual and soul energies surged from the corpse. Their eyes wideo see Leos’ presence appear again, fusing with the armor once more.
His very soul, inated with the barbarian god’s blessing, did not want to leave its body yet!
“No… No… NOOO! I WON’T LOSE…! I AM… THE KING… OF BEASTS!!!”
The bd gold metal enpassing his corpse started to twist and shapeshift stantly, revealing hundreds of lion-like heads aly tentacles and cws stantly surging from its metallid flesh fusion.
“GRUOOOHHHH!”
With a monstrous and almost eldritch scream of both agony and wrath, the lio king’s soul started to shake the etlefield, his frowing rger and rger and rger, its tentacles pierg the bodies of partits, draining them of their blood and souls.
“I WILL FEAST ON ALL OF YOU, VERMINS!”
As they saw this immense destru, the twins decided to end it ond for all.
“What a monster! Just how far is he willing to go to not accept his punishment for his sins?!” they sighed. “Let’s end this!”
FLUOSH!
Their Divine Spiritual Power surged from their body, fusing with their spear and then their body, gathering a giant storm of thunder and winds, f a massive entity.
Everyone could see it above the skies. Bing Xue smiled as she g the se, feeling proud of what her beloved girls had achieved.
“I khey could do it.”
RUMBLE!
“ROOOAAARR!”
A gigantic wolf emerged, made pletely out of divine spiritual elemental energies of thunder and winds, at over fifty meters of height. It desded towards Leos' enormous, aberrant fleshy aallic body, opening their jaws and engulfing him in a destru explosion.
BOOOMMM!!!
The explosion was caused merely by their bodies colliding with one ahe fusion quickly opeheir massive wolf jaws, biting and tearing through Leos apart as their powerful spiritual elements burned and turned him into ashes.
“Gryyyaaaeeggghh!”
The scream of agony from Leos echoed as his entire body was being devoured and torn apart, over and over and ain!
“N-No…! STOP…! STOOOP!”
“ENOUGH! Accept your death!”
With a mighty howl, the twins suddenly grew two more wolf-like heads from their transformed fused body, tearing through Leos and everoying his very soul, c it with tless bites.
Crack, crack…!
“I AM…! THE KING OF…!”
CRACK!
“THE KING OF BEASTS…!”
Crack, crack…!
“STOP…!”
CRACK!
“STOOOP!”
CRASH!
“THIS ’T BE HAPPENING TO MEEEE!”
Struggling until the very st sed, Leos gave his st scream as his soul and body shattered into pieces, o recover ever again.
BOOOM!
An explosion of accumuted divine spiritual energy erupted from his body, engulfing the two twins as their fusion quickly deactivated, their bodies falling over the grassnds, covered by powerful divine essehat was slowly absorbed by their bodies.
“Well done.” Bing Xue appeared by their side, not as a doppelganger but as the real deal, waving her hand and healing them. “Very well done, my love.”
As she helped them recover and regain their sciousness, Bing Xue suddenly noticed something behind her.
A huge lump of bd gold metal is still groaning, along with the mixed, tiny soul fragments of the Divi Spirit.
“Gryeeggh…! Guuugghh…”
“How relentless you are, so you’ve survived…”
For a moment, she sidered vaporizing it and ending its suffering. Yet she could still notice, within its red eyes, the io live.
Leos was no lohere anymore, but only the agonizing victim of the schemes of the barbarian god.
As a merciful and righteous Venerable, Bing Xue took pity on it.
She extended her hand as the metallic, slime-like creature slowly walked towards her hand and then was teleported inside her Inner Realm.
