Chapter 1424: Real body
Contrastingly, the other half, forged from the machine god’s own corrupted essence, emitted an eerie darkness that seemed to devour the surrounding light. This malevolent energy writhed and coiled, emanating a palpable aura of discord and decay. Every sinew of this tainted force strained against the purity of the lunar energy, seeking dominance over the newly formed weapon.
As the two opposing energies clashed within the bow, a fierce struggle ensued, their conflicting essences intertwining in a chaotic dance of power. The celestial energy fought to cleanse and purify, while the corrupt energy sought to corrupt and consume. The resulting conflict created an unstable equilibrium, with the bow pulsating erratically as the opposing forces vied for control.
"This could be a problem..." Rain said.
Blocking the charged attack of a weapon of that size would be difficult, to say the least... at the same time. Dodging wasn’t really an option... if he were to dodge, the machine god could target his friends, or Earth for that matter. They were all positioned behind him, after all.
"What is wrong? Don’t you have anything smart to say?"
"I do have, but I need a better audience aside from you," Rain shrugged.
Things would have been easier if the enemy was actually holding the bow, but an arrow of light and darkness was formed and then nocked without the use of the enemy’s hands. The projectile was being charged with more energy, so time was running out.
"I suppose it can’t be helped..." Rain said and then raised the ominous sword.
The energy of the weapon began to vibrate, and then the machine god realized that he had to stop Rain. However, before that could happen, everything in the field of vision of the enemy suddenly disappeared and he had no idea what had happened. The machine god decided to attack since his arrow would hit something important to Rain, but soon he felt his body extremely sluggish... even his mind was having a hard time working properly... before long, the machine god felt his body being enveloped by something and his body began to freeze while being encased by a giant ice coffin.
