Chapter 1188: Destruction

Right after Rubia said those words, the Palm God appeared right behind the Demon God. He grabbed all the crystals from her body and threw them as far as possible while leaving a hundred arms protecting her body.

He didn't end there. With the Demon God's condition, even the Palm God could quickly finish him off.

The Palm God channeled all the power that the Holy God left behind and slapped the Demon God from behind like a mosquito.

"Hand of Virtue."

The Palm God let out a sigh of relief when he managed to pull this off because he never expected what the Holy God said was the truth. He quickly put a pill on her mouth to recover from her injury before making sure the Demon God died.

Still, the Demon God died without even being able to react or say something. It was a sad death. Considering he was in the death door, his death might be normal, albeit the Palm God really didn't have any excitement when killing another God King.

He simply said, "It seems the old man was right. You were prepared to die this whole time."

"..." Rubia narrowed her eyes and used the little strength she recovered due to the pill and looked at the Palm God with a pale face. She stuttered, "Why... are... you... here?"

"Saving your ass, old hag." The Palm God shrugged. "The old man found your face as someone who was ready to die, so he thought you would pull something like this."

"I was winning... But my power was not enough..." Rubia shook her head in regret. She didn't have a powerful finishing move that could destroy the Demon God's whole body other than the crystals and that last attack. She had created one set of crystals before going to the battle that could blow both of them up together in the worst-case scenario.

And the second set of crystals could only be used once because she didn't have enough power to create another one, forcing her to use that one last attack with all her might since it was her best chance.

She sighed and said, "I'll stop."

The Palm God looked at her for a few seconds before carrying her to the old man. They were too weak to join the war and one Rank 2 God would probably be enough to kill them in the current situation, so he planned to stop for a while to guard them.

With more than half of the enemies dead, only four enemies remained. They were the Blood God, Vampire Goddess and Evil God.

This time, it was a battle between the God of Destruction and the only remaining female God King on the opposite side, the Vampire Goddess.

Raiju seemed to have something new to his power. Even the Vampire Goddess could feel it. When he flew toward their new battlefield, everything Raiju passed, such as asteroids, cracked and almost shattered.

Raiju looked at this blonde-haired vampire girl. Her long hair was tied into twin tails and her eyes were dark red. She wore a one-piece dress with a black and dark red pattern.

"Let me test you first." The Vampire Goddess smirked and summoned ten bats, launching them toward Raiju.

It was a simple test to see his reaction speed and action.

Seeing this kind of movement, Raiju surprisingly destroyed all the bats even though they wouldn't touch him.

"..." Even the Vampire Goddess was quite shocked and smiled, knowing that Raiju would destroy everything she threw at him.

Hence, she began formulating a certain plan in her mind and raised her hands. She summoned more and more bats as if she planned to do something.

Raiju narrowed his eyes and released the power of destruction.

Suddenly, near one hundred bats lined up in front of him, staring at him for a few seconds before opening their mouth. A dark red light appeared in each of their mouths before they shot a kind of beam toward him.

"!!!" Raiju hurriedly punched forward while releasing the Power of Destruction to the air. When it clashed with the beams, the beams decayed in an instant before the bats disappeared due to the lack of energy as well as being influenced by the Power of Destruction.

But the Vampire Goddess didn't stop here. She raised both hands and waved them to the sides while spinning her body as if she was dancing.

It was then Raiju realized many things were moving at once.

He turned around and found thirty asteroids of various sizes flew straight at him. If he were to take another look from a different perspective, he would find many bats pushing the asteroids from behind.

"Now lock up!" The Vampire Goddess smirked and snapped her finger.

Bam.

Bam.

Bam.

Raiju was locked up by the asteroids without a way out. Even if he made a new one, the Vampire Goddess would launch another attack.

However, Raiju had his own pride and plan. Instead of rationally coming up with a way, he used his Power of Destruction to shatter all the rocks nearby, including the bats behind them.

After that, he flew straight toward the Vampire Goddess with a fist covered with a silverish black colored aura.

"So, you want to try it out." She smirked and raised her hands, summoning more bats. The bats then spread around before a dark red string attached to it, forming a net.

"Blood Net."

This was the technique she used to block Alex's attack. Although it failed, the net itself carried another energy that should be able to deal with the God of Destruction.

Even Raiju was aware of this energy. Sadly for the Vampire Goddess, Raiju simply struck the Blood Net like a fool.

"Fist of Destruction!"

"You seriously try attacking my net? That blood is extraordinary." The Vampire Goddess shook her head in disappointment.

Raiju felt his skin was burned despite being covered with his Power of Destruction. The Blood Net turned out to remove his skin and tried to suck his blood. Not only did it strengthen the Blood Net, but the God of Destruction would also get weaker as time went on.

If people watched this fight, they would think Raiju would back down and choose another option. But it just meant they didn't know Raiju enough.

Raiju was a man that thought he could destroy everything. If the net really couldn't be destroyed, he simply needed to destroy the one who cast it.

He took one more step forward and pushed all the bats and the Blood Net with him as he made his way toward the Vampire Goddess.

"What?!" The Vampire Goddess dropped her jaw, never expecting the God of Destruction would push it toward her.

Unfortunately, the thought was too ridiculous to be believed and Raiju had arrived right in front of her, considering the net wasn't that far from her. He continued his punch and struck the Vampire Goddess's face. "If it's not good, then I will just smash the one who summons it!"

"Ha!"

Raiju blew her away with that powerful fist.

The Vampire Goddess managed to stop before she hit anything, but her face was disfigured by that one attack as she complained, "Oi, have you never heard not to hit a woman's face?"

"I've... Countless time." Raiju answered calmly.

"Then you—"

Before he finished, Raiju stopped her by shouting, "But who cares? Do you think I will care about something that insignificant? If you think I will stop because you're a woman, then you're wrong. I will destroy everything even if my opponent is a he, a she, or it! Whether you're living beings or weapons, I will destroy everything. My fist knows no gender."

The Vampire Goddess released her killing intent as her face slowly restored to its prime. She then raised her hand and snapped her fingers. "Since you want it that way, I will give it to you."

"Blood Control. Spikes."

Raiju widened his eyes as sharp pain entered his brain. He raised his right hand that was used to hit the Blood Net, finding many huge spikes that came out of nowhere.

"That net..." Raiju gritted his teeth and used his Power of Destruction to destroy the residual energy from the Blood Net to prevent the power circulated inside his body through blood.

"Hoh! A clever guy despite being known as a muscle brain." The Vampire Goddess smirked and summoned more bats. "Then, I will play along with you a bit more."

"Fine by me." Raiju snorted and charged at her.

Because of Raiju's new power, the Vampire Goddess kept sending bats to him in all different formations to test his ability. Meanwhile, Raiju also charged at her without considering his injury carefully. As long as he didn't get spiked on his body, he should be fine.

After five minutes, the Vampire Goddess felt there was a need to weaken Raiju first before killing him. She summoned a hundred bats and spread them around her body. She then released her Blood Power and let the Bats carry it toward Raiju.

The Blood Power then spread around like a mist before the bats also released the same blood to permeate the entire battlefield. She stayed inside the Blood Mist while leisurely saying, "Hahaha, what can you do now, God of Destruction?

"This is my Blood Mist. The moment you enter this place, you will feel like your blood will drain up. This is a special mist that can extract your energy. If it were another person, they would have waited for me since the battle would be decided by the strongest person among the two sides.

"In other words, if you wait here, we will win the moment my lord kills your Spirit God. At the same time, you can't afford to leave this battlefield because you know I might hinder the Spirit God on the battlefield since unlike you, I am not afraid of dying so my lord can win.

"I can hide inside this place to keep you in this place. Most people will probably wait for me here, but I'm sure you don't like it, right?" The Vampire Goddess smirked, revealing her sharp canine. She completely read the God of Destruction.

With his character, he obviously didn't want to let it end like this, but charging ahead was not a good idea. He thought for a moment and took a deep breath, wondering what he needed to do.

Unfortunately, the Vampire Goddess didn't give him time to think.

"Bats Formation." The Vampire Goddess summoned thousands of bats like how Anna usually summoned her butterfly.

Even Raiju was impressed by the sheer number and looked left and right, finding a way to kill them all. Unfortunately for him, there was no other way to destroy them other than eradicating the bats one by one.

"Hmm..." Raiju narrowed his eyes and contemplated for a moment.

Not wanting to give him time to get the solution, the Vampire Goddess waved her hand, ordering all the bats to march forward. As long as a few of them lived and managed to bite him, she would gain so much advantage.

"Come, God of Destruction." The Vampire Goddess made an excited smile.

Raiju took one step back to gain enough distance but was misunderstood by the Goddess. Him retreating was a sign of showing his weakness from him, so she raised her hand, telling all the bats to charge at him. "Go!"

The Bats surrounded him and began to swarm him until he couldn't be seen anymore, trying to suck his blood. However, grey-colored energy suddenly leaked from the bat formations before all the bats vanished into trace as if they just decayed, reduced to the very atom.

"What?!" The Vampire Goddess gasped and looked at Raiju. There was a trace of fear and uncertainty in her eyes, feeling something even more dangerous emanating from him.

That energy was also the one killing all the bats. That was why she knew something had changed.

Coming out of the bats formation, the God of Destruction fixed his hair and clicked his tongue. There was silence throughout the entire battlefield. He released all of his power and glared at the Vampire Goddess, saying with a cold tone. "Destruction Embodiment."
