Chapter 167: Battling The Quasi Dragon II

Roar!

Bang!

Grey slammed into the wall of the tunnel after suffering from the impact of the quasi dragon’s attack.

‘d.a.m.n it! We need to leave this place soon.’ said Grey.

Because of the thin elemental essence in the area, Grey didn’t wish to stay here for too long. He could continue fighting for at least thirty minutes, but after that, his reserves would be used up. Creating an inscription was also going to be difficult, but since the earth essence here is still normal, then he would have to use only the earth element to attack.

‘How are we going to get past this thing?’ Void asked while using the darkness element to create what looked like a vine with spikes to stop the quasi dragon from attacking Grey once more.

After Grey used the earthen nail to pin the tail of the quasi dragon to the ground, the duo instantly attacked, trying to hurt it as much as they possibly could, but it was able to easily remove the nail, and also spat out flames to block the attack they sent its way.

Once it blocked their attacks, it began its a.s.sault once again, forcing the duo to gradually retreat into the tunnel.

Like Grey, Void noticed the thin amount of elemental essence in this place during the battle, so he knew they had to end the battle quickly. But the problem was, how? The quasi dragon was not only stronger than they were, it was also faster, had stronger defenses, and also a terrifying attack power.

‘I’ll have to use that soon.’ thought Grey.

He had already realized how dangerous their current situation was, even if they’ve managed to keep themselves alive, it wouldn’t be long before they used up the elemental essence they had inside them, once that happens, they would be sitting ducks for the quasi dragon.

Presently, given his current Plane, and the strength of his body, he could stay in the Fusion State for at most seven minutes, so he had to ensure that he would be able to defeat the quasi dragon within that time, or even at the very least, escape before the seven minutes time was up, or his skin would start cracking up from the excess energy.

Before long, the quasi dragon forced the duo back to the lab.

Grey wanted to create an opportunity to enter the Fusion State but the quasi dragon didn’t give him the chance.

Its tail caught him once again and threw him to the side.

Bam!

He crashed to the ground and the short blade fell. When he saw the blade, he recalled the energy he felt inside and quickly tried to pick it up so he would fight with it.

But the quasi dragon was faster than he was and used its tail to drag the blade closer to it.

‘Get the blade.’ Grey said.

Void sent out dark arrows while edging close to the quasi dragon.

Sensing Void’s attack, the quasi dragon retreated with the blade, dodging Void’s attack while attacking him in the process.

Void instantly retreated but was sent flying by the impact, cras.h.i.+ng into one of the platforms.

‘Void!’ Grey yelled when he was Void cras.h.i.+ng into the platform.

‘I’m fine.’ Void stood up and a.s.sured Grey.

‘Keep it busy.’ Grey nodded before adding.

It was time for him to use the Fusion State, he couldn’t wait any longer, so as to avoid any more unforeseen events.

This was the first time he was going to use the true fusion technique, the last time he used the Fusion State, he hadn’t formed his elemental beads. With his elemental beads now, he needed to stay undisturbed when fusing them. If the process was interrupted halfway, then if he’s lucky, his beads would be destroyed and he would fall back to the Arcane Plane, if he’s unlucky, he’ll blow up.

‘I’ll try.’ replied Void.

In the past over six minutes or so that they’ve been fighting against the quasi dragon, he had faced the quasi dragon alone for almost half of the time, so he was almost getting used to fighting it alone. His greatest advantage over the quasi dragon was not his darkness element, but his size. Unlike Grey, since the battle started, other than being forced back by the impact of its attacks when they collide, he had not been hit physically by the quasi dragon.

The quasi dragon instantly tried to go after Grey when it saw he was trying to leave the battle.

Swoos.h.!.+

Void sent out a claw made of the darkness element at it, forcing it to stop and block the attack. It couldn’t use any part of its body to block Void’s darkness element attacks and could only breathe out fire to stop the claw from reaching it.

Grey hid behind one of the platforms and sat in a crossed leg position fully focusing on his elemental beads.

The quasi dragon changed its attention to Void when it saw Grey hid behind the platform. Although it wanted to stop what he was doing, it felt Void was more of something threat since almost all of Void’s recent attacks could hurt it.

Roar!

Suddenly, what looked like wings slowly started coming out of the back of the quasi dragon.

‘Oh, s.h.i.+t!’ Void cursed on seeing this.

The wings on the back of the quasi dragon slowly revealed themselves, and to Void’s dismay, the bat-like wings slowly started moving.

Flap! Flap!

With the increased speed of flapping, the wind it caused almost threw Void off his feet.

‘s.h.i.+t!’ Void immediately attacked it before it could take flight.

They were in a three hundred meters wide, two hundred meters high lab, that was underground. If the quasi dragon were to start flying, then attacking it would be difficult for the duo, while it would get a better shot at them.

The quasi dragon spat out fire at Void who immediately escaped when he saw the fire coming out of its mouth.

The quasi dragon soon took flight.

_____

While Void was stopping the quasi dragon, Grey was currently focused on the task at hand.

‘Huuu’

After breathing out, he calmed his mind, removing all distracting thoughts, and focused fully on fusing the beads.

He sent his spiritual energy into his body and used it to move the elemental beads closer to each other, with the experience he had from elemental fusion, and also the first time he fused his chaotic essence, fusing the beads was easier.

After getting the beads closer, they slowly started naturally merging with each other. They didn’t face any problems with the merging process, and within forty-five seconds, they merged completely.

Now, Grey’s previous five elemental beads have turned into a single five-colored elemental bead. With five beads, it meant an increase of five stages.

Boom!

An energy wave spread out in all directions from Grey’s body, but with the quasi dragon flapping its wings, Void was unable to sense it.

Grey’s stage soon started climbing upwards, and in five seconds, he went from the Fourth stage of the Origin Plane to the Ninth stage of the Origin Plane.

Feeling the strength flowing through him, Grey stood up and looked above the platform.

‘What the h.e.l.l! Void! I thought you said it wasn’t a dragon!?’ He yelled at Void when he saw the sight of the quasi dragon taking to the air.

‘It isn’t.’ replied Void.

‘Then how do you explain the wings?’ Grey asked, not convinced by what Void said previously.

‘Although its evolution was a failure, it still had some traits of a dragon.’ explained Void.

Grey also took flight and shot straight at the quasi dragon who was mid-air, when he got close, he threw a blow to the body of the quasi dragon.

Bang!

After fusing his elemental beads, the strength of his physical body increased by two stages, although it wasn’t as powerful as his stage, once he fills his muscles with the elements, his physical strength increased by another stage.

The quasi dragon was pushed back by almost thirty meters by Grey’s punch and it roared in pain.

Now Grey was in the same stage as it was, but its defense was still better.

After gaining balance, it charged towards Grey, and swung its tail at him, trying to take him down.

Grey was able to easily dodge the attack and he created a huge two and a half meters hammer that he slammed into the jaws of the quasi dragon.

The quasi dragon fell from the air and crashed into the ground, as soon as it landed, then inscriptions sent out ten pillars that slammed into it, and he also threw three fusion orbs at it that exploded on contact.

Bang! Boom!

Void was stunned when he saw Grey battling the quasi dragon mid-air, and seeing that he was not only in the same stage as it, but he was overpowering it, he couldn’t help but feel excited.
