Chapter 2332: The Power of the Ancient One
"ARRGGHHH!"
An infernal scream echoed from within the golden clasp as Paramount began to force it apart. Veins of molten red light spread across the four-armed Neo-Angel’s stone body, his muscles swelling as he pushed back against the crushing pressure.
A flicker of surprise crossed the Demon King’s eyes as he witnessed the strength of the four-armed Neo-Angel.
"Not bad," the Demon King said calmly. "Your power and talent are extraordinary. Sadly, you are not on my side."
With those words, he opened his palm and shifted his arms into a strange posture, one that evoked the symbol of infinity itself. In the next instant, an ocean of golden palms descended from the sky, slamming into Paramount’s body with merciless force. Each strike carried divine authority, driving the Neo-Angel downward, crashing him into the ground and continuing to press him deeper and deeper into the earth.
The land groaned under the pressure, cracking apart as the assault intensified. And it was not long before the sound of broken bones began to appear.
"Neo-Angel Draconic Breath!"
Just as the fate of the four-armed Neo-Angel seemed sealed, a thunderous roar echoed from the distance. Zylax opened his massive jaws, the glowing veins along his spine blazing as condensed lightning gathered within his throat. In a blinding flash, a torrent of compressed draconic lightning erupted forth, a beam so dense it seemed capable of piercing a star.
The Demon King’s eyes sharpened instantly as he was forced to redirect his energy.
The barrage crushing Paramount ceased, and golden hands rapidly manifested around the Demon King, forming a protective cocoon. The draconic breath slammed into it, forcing the cocoon backward through the air before finally blasting it into the distance.
For a moment, the golden cocoon endured.
Then it unraveled.
