Chapter 991 The fifth run (2)
This was the first time in the history of the universe that the perfect warrior was hit by an opponent and that opponent was not using the power of the karmic essence to face him.
The perfect warrior had taken much worse hits in sparring, however, all of them were always powered by karmic essence and were a suicidal move that his opponent's could not control.
What Rudra achieved today and how he fought was something that the perfect warrior had not yet witnessed and it amused him greatly to face such an opponent.
[ Constant Regeneration ]
He activated constant regeneration and instantly regained all the HP that he had lost in the fight so far, which was already not much to begin with.
[ Third Step : Shadow Float ]
Once Rudra completed his second step, he moved onto the third step not minding the fact that his opponent was rapidly healing from all the damage that he had dished out.
The third step was called ' Shadow Float ' and it was a method where Rudra pushed the abilities of the Chaos, Void, Time and Space seed to the utmost limit.
Using the power of the seed of chaos, Rudra altered reality such that the solid and flat surface that they were walking on so far, turned into a liquid jelly that rippled and bounced everytime Rudra took a step upon it.
The very ground seemed to dance alongside Rudra, as the perfect warrior was forced to abandon the surface and float right above it to not get caught by its movement that would compromise his battle stance.
However, it was not just the ground that Rudra was manipulating as using the power of the void seed and the space seed, he was also creating multiple projections of himself appearing all around the perfect warrior and all at once as he created the ultimate version of the [ Dimensional Walk ] called the [ Shadow Dance ]
Inspired by Max's move, the Shadow Dance was the pinnacle of dimensional teleportation, as with a clock cycle of 0.000001 seconds, Rudra managed to change 10 portals at once giving the illusion that he was everywhere at once, dancing on a jelly like battlefield all around the perfect warrior.
With every second that passed, he came closer and closer to attacking the perfect warrior, who stood still and observant as little by little he came so close to his opponent that he started to jab his sword towards his enemy and it missed the perfect warrior's body by only a centimetre because Rudra was only slightly too far.
In the next iteration, he would finally have his opponent by the neck as if the perfect warrior did not defend he was going to be impaled by a hundred thrusts at once, as at that moment, the perfect warrior could play the only card that Rudra wanted him to play as he used an AOE move that covered all directions.
[ Hypernova ]
With the perfect warrior at the centre, energy blasted outwards from his body as if he was a dying blackhole and created a hypernova.
The attack covered all possible directions and was a complete 3D attack, however, while it was the perfect move to counter the situation that the perfect warrior was in, it was also the one move that Rudra was compelling him to perform as the second he activated Hypernova, Rudra revealed his real motivation.
[ Sword Saint Special Move : Full counter ]
Bringing out the peak of dual swordsmanship, Rudra used this chance to use a full scale energy counter as keeping up with the 360° shadow dance, he used his swordsmanship to send back every packet of energy the hypernova had radiated outwards with thrice the intensity and redirect it towards the perfect warrior at a point blank range!
*BADABOOOM*
The resulting explosion from this process was so strong that not only the third dimension, but reality itself collapsed as the entire celestial realm began to shudder from this battle.
-1,200,000,000
Rudra somehow lost close to 98% of his HP in the explosion as his estimation that he would not be affected by the attack in the fourth dimension proved to be wrong, however, while he took damage, the perfect warrior also took some serious hit as he lost a whopping 300,000,000 points in HP as well.
' Hahaha, I lost four times as much as him even though it was a shockwave that blasted me aside and he took the brunt of the attack.
His defence is out of this world, absolutely insane' Rudra thought as he struggled back to his feet and activated the power of the life seed to help him heal from the immediate injuries.
The perfect warrior, whose HP bar seemed to have fallen by 10% also regained his HP at an alarming rate as his constant regeneration was still active.
Eventually, ten whole seconds later, the perfect warrior was fully healed whereas Rudra was only back to 30% HP as Rudra decided to fold the battle here as his objective had already been achieved.
The fourth move of the perfect sequence was the trap and the fifth was the killer, however, since it could only ever be used once, Rudra decided to save it for later and call this fight a day.
With a HUGE smile on his face, Rudra activated the karmic essence and made a beeline for the exit, as there was nothing that the perfect warrior could do to stop him.
Naturally, using karmic essence meant that Rudra died from the backlash, however, it was an acceptable trade rather than losing a seed.
Today, he had finally understood the method to defeat the perfect warrior and he could now proudly contact Max and guide him as necessary to prepare himself for the grand battle before ascending to the celestial realm.
