Chapter 745 Breaking The Body and Mind
Chapter 745 Breaking The Body and Mind
Raze’s darkness had been condensed down, exploding in an area and then pushing it down further to a single spot. Right now, the power of the Dark magic would be purely tearing apart Murkel.
Unlike the tornado of Dark magic from before, this was pure Dark magic, which basis for working was destruction. This was one of the strongest spells Raze knew, the Negative Dark Bomb. The attack acted twice in the expansion and then the condensing form.
However, at the back of his mind, as he saw this, Raze was worried about one thing. He continued to condense down the attack, and finally, he was no longer able to handle the pressure.
His shaking hands expanded out, and so did the Dark energy, breaking into the air and dispersing into a large number of particles.
‘I’ve used up a lot of mana again,’ Raze said to himself, slightly looking at the ground, his vision starting to blur. Using the Cursed Qi pills in a row was already having an effect on him, and it felt worse than the last time he had used it.
His body wasn’t building up a resistance to it; it was the opposite. Each time he forced himself to use these Qi pills, the after effects were getting worse.
‘It reminds me of one of the textbooks I read about Dark magic; you can never get away from a curse.’
The ultimate downside of creating items with Dark magic. Raze still had mana left; he still had time left, but would it be enough?
As his vision started to come back, and he looked ahead, he could see something standing in front of him—a red figure with large beast-like eyes as big as fists.
Out of its back were several red crystals spiraling out like that of a hedgehog. This continued on the back of his arms and the back of his legs, as well as showing slightly on other parts of his body.
This was Murkel, but not the Murkel that the others knew. It was a different kind of Murkel; it looked more like a monster than a man, apart from the fact that it stood there on two legs.
“You ripped off this human flesh of mine to reveal what was underneath,” Murkel said, his voice deeper than before, with an odd echo. It sounded as if two people were talking at the same time but with a slight delay.
In one of Murkel’s hands, there was a portal of his Dark Qi. It looked like a miniature black hole that was continuously swirling around, and it got smaller and smaller until Murkel had crushed it in his hand.
“Your powers are extremely powerful, strong enough to even destroy my red crystals. This is a first since I faced them back then,” Murkel said. “I should apologize; this is not the same as the powers Bofan used. I can see this is your own power.”
“Your powers are extremely powerful, strong enough to even destroy my red crystals. This is a first since I faced them back then,” Murkel said. “I should apologize; this is not the same as the powers Bofan used. I can see this is your own power.”
“Unfortunately for you, my power is still able to draw yours away, and from the looks of things, you’re on your last legs.”
Murkel had used and condensed his Dark Qi. In doing that, he had drawn most of the Dark magic to one point, to the Dark Qi that was swirling in his hand. While this was happening, Murkel was constantly reinforcing his hand with his red crystallization.
At worst, Murkel believed he would lose a hand, but what felt like a final attack from Raze, he would survive and become the victor. Besides, if he lost a hand, he could always have it return.
“What is that?” Dame asked from the stand. “His skin, it’s red; it looks like a beast but in the shape of a body.”
“You should know that as a hybrid, your body has different states of transformations that it can achieve. You can just use a small transformation or allow your whole body to change.”
“The latter usually being more powerful, but in turn, you give up far more control,” Amir explained, looking at Mantis as a prime example.
At the Bonum Society, they would learn to control and work together with the inner beast inside them. The final result was consolidating into one; there were no longer two minds but having one mind as superior over the other.
When Amir looked at Murkel, he had no idea who had won out. Was the beast’s mind mainly in control, changing Murkel’s view completely, or was it the other way around? So much time had passed.
Seeing the new state of Murkel, Raze lifted his hands up, then stomped the floor, shifting forward, and threw out two Dark Pulses. They went out fast and powerful, infused with his Qi.
Murkel, at this point, just stood there and allowed the attacks to hit him. As the Dark Pulse landed on his skin, the magic hit his body and dispersed into nothing but energy particles.
It only slightly jolted Murkel’s new body.
“This is something that the others didn’t quite see,” Murkel claimed. “You see, back then it was just the Hybrid that was fighting. It wasn’t me as I am now,” Murkel said, lifting his hand.
“This body has the strength of the Hybrid but can reinforce itself with Qi, giving my body a more solid foundation, allowing my strikes to be far stronger, and allowing me to use the properties of the Dark Qi.” Murkel lifted up his foot and stomped it on the ground.
The entire area beneath his foot cracked, and the large cracks continued forward, reaching the very edge of the arena and where Raze was standing as well. The whole arena was shaking, and the others had to brace themselves not to fall over.
“That’s… so much power,” Rayna said. “Is… Raze going to be okay?”
It was then that Raze realized, as his vision was starting to blur again, that the Cursed pill’s energy was starting to fade. He looked up at the face of his sister Safa in particular.
“No… don’t do it!” she screamed as if she could read his mind.
Forming in Raze’s hand was another Dark Qi pill.
“At this rate, I have no choice. I just have to keep taking these things until I get rid of you. Heck, if I have to take these things for the rest of my life until I get rid of you and the Grand Magus, then so be it.”
“Because if I don’t take you down here, then I’m dead anyway,” Raze said as he took a third cursed Qi pill all on the same day.
