Celestial Peak

Chapter 562: Devour

He could feel that the end was about to arrive, thus his erratic thoughts and anxiousness. It had only been a single day since he inherited the right to becoming the true All-Father, but Wang Ling was already feeling the weight.

And in the middle of sensing the deaths of the other Origin Race members, Wang Ling was attacked and reminded he wasn't invincible. He needed to grow stronger, but, he couldn't do that without fighting. Yet, none could not do that.

Wang Ling had been incapable of facing someone at his level. Bai Xue was too strong, and the others were too weak. He couldn't find anyone, so he was just trying to figure out a way to win without fighting head on.

His usual way of improving himself disappeared, until, the Ancestors he previously faced appeared. 

BAM!

The echo of two fist colliding spread across the Cosmos, their clash sent out wave after wave, rendering anyone incapable of approaching them. Time and time again, world crushing clashes continued to explode.

Wang Ling was the All-Father, his flesh was mixed with the God's Mark, his impregnable skin now filled with scratches. Blue blood flowed and then returned to his body.

He who gave birth to the elements allowed it to flow all across the vast expanse of reality now the tips of his hair were frozen stiff. 

He was no longer invincible, yet, Wang Ling smiled instead of worrying. The thrill only allowed his instincts to sharpen. He was forcing his growth to exceed what could be seen as possible.

"Hey." Lixus and called as he repositioned himself, "Bastard, I heard you are a God when it comes to the sword. Why aren't you using them?"

"Why, are you worried for me?" Wang Lking asked as he pulled his right arm back, tightly clenching it and then opening his left hand in front, "How thoughtful."

Lixus scoffed, "If I can kill you, and give your strength to the All-Mother, everything will end. I want to kill you, but, I do not plan on doing it when you are unarmed."

"Don't worry about me I inherited a body that's a prodigy in the ways of the fists." Smiling, Wang Ling's eyes squinted, "I need no sword to defeat you."

ROAR! Lixus disappeared, his roars echoed past the horizon and pounced at Wang Ling. His claws came from Wang Ling's neck.

BOOM!

Wang Ling's fist struck against Lixus for who knows how many times. His fist hurt so much, it throbbed he could barely concentrate. The ice was eating away at him. Despite his arrogance, Wang Ling never ever got the upper hand.

Lixus was only getting stronger, his fur becoming thicker, and his ice stronger. It was sharper now, his movements, and his counter attacks.

Wang Ling threw another valley of strikes. Wang Ling circulated his qi and let out seventy-three punches in a split second. All of which having different positions and timings. Of these, one lethal strike lies, hidden perfectly without. 

[There.] Wang Ling went in to strike Lixus' heart!

BOOM! 

The qi reverberated and shook, a powerful no punch connected and as Lixus was blow away tens steps away and he vomited blood, it was not he who suffered the most terrifying fate. Wang Ling's right hand now encased in ice.

It shattered into a million pieces, and Wang Ling stood there listless.

"Too obvious~" Lixus stated as he cleaned the blood from his mouth, "You are too weak after all"

Swoosh!

Lixus moved and stood in front of Wang Ling, his eyes now radiated derision and disgust, "You are too weak to deserve the title."

Lixus threw a volley of punches. Wang Ling raised his hands but to no avail. Lixus was getting stronger, by the passing second.

His fur becoming sharper and his snowflake sharper. The frost expanded quickly, and before long, the entirety of the Cosmic Road became frozen, and then the frost disappeared into a single location. On Lixus' palm it reappeared and unleashed upon Wang Ling in the form of a devastating white beam of frost.

Primal Frost: Show Devours World

"Damnit!" Wang Ling cursed underneath his breathe. He lifted his remaining arm and parted the beam of frost. Wang Ling was pushed back, but he managed to hang on, from above, however, there appeared a shadow.

"Here" Lixus kicked Wang Ling's head and sent him flying, from there, Wang Ling failed to recover himself and it was then that his problems began.

For unknown reasons, the more they fought the stronger Lixus becomes. His head, torso, neck, leg, nether regions, Wang Ling experienced pain he never felt in this life or even the former. Wang Ling was experiencing so much that he 

The burning sensation of Frost made him incapable of responding

Punch after punch, Wang Ling endured. He couldn't fight back. His memories began to cloud his better judgment was soon clouded.

With an axel kick, Wang Ling initiated another exchange. He circulated his qi and a storm roused with his every move. A tempestuous exchange, where Wang Ling didn't bother holding anything back.

His previous control when he first encountered Lixus was quickly slipping away. He attacked with a flurry of kicks, none of them landed and as he twisted his body, his right arm regrew with his robes and now, as it finished winding up, one could see a menacing black flame emerging from its grasp.

Lixus did not know what it was, but it the same scent as Hell itself. He scoffed, "Again, what you are doing is useless"

Wang Ling did not say anything other than proclaiming its name, "Fer"

From point blank range a Lion's head formed. In front of Lixus, it roared and began to form, coalescing into a concrete from. Wang Ling's expression no longer held anywhere near someone who only wanted to fight.

Somehow, though his calm remained, the only thing that was retained was his his intention of truly fight.

Without any sword, Wang Ling grabbed hold of destiny and bent it to his woll!

With a steely gaze, Wang Ling whispered, "Devour"
