Chapter 72: Ultimate Nine Paths II VS Dark God’s Main Body

Above the Fraternus Sea, Ian grasped the Dark God’s fist on his palm. They began to exchange blows, and their current force value were actually not that far apart.

At this time, the Dark God threw an upper cut at Ian’s chin, which caused Ian to stumble. The force of the punch, which was enough to obliterate a galaxy, just Ian took a step back, and he was dizzy.

Ian grinned and, with a crazed smile, he threw a left hook which the Dark God failed to block with his arms. The hook connected to the Dark God’s left cheek, which catapulted him hundreds of miles.

The Dark God conjured a crack in space, which sent his unstoppable body behind Ian. He raised his foot and attempted to kick Ian, but Ian managed to predict the opponent’s figure with the help of his Mind’s Eye and Tri-Vision. With a swift duck, Ian dodged the kick with ease.

“You’re physique is indeed extraordinary. Even with my enhanced divine ki in my Dark Form state, you still hold an advantage.”

The cheek of the Dark God had caved in with Ian’s attack. Even now, he felt the stinging pain.

“Less talk, more fight!” Ian’s figure left after-images as he punched the head of the Dark God, then followed another one in the chest, causing the Dark God to wail.

BANG! BANG!

Ian began to hurl punches one after another in combination. The continent began to tear away pieces to pieces by the residual energy and impacts of their attack. In fact, seven kingdoms had ceased to exist since they began to exchange blows.

ROAR!

The Dark God counter-attacked as he head-butted Ian to the chin. At this time, Ian utilized his kagune to form a spear. The blood red kagune quickly took form behind Ian and shot out at the Dark’ God’s figure with precision. Ian didn’t stop; he condensed his claws, and his eyes also released a golden glow.

The combination of spear-like kagune, laser eyes, and Ian’s claws tore the Dark Form apart.

“You fucking monkey!!! You’ll pay for this!!!”

With a hysterical roar, the God’s voice was filled with shame and humiliation.

The Dark God rushed at Ian again. His face was filled with anger. His body was glowing with black fire. The sky turned dark. Thunder rolled. The sea below was shaking as waves crashed in all directions.

Ian stood firm. His eyes still glowed. His claws were ready. As the Dark God flew at him, Ian took a deep breath and waited.

The Dark God threw a punch at Ian’s chest. Ian blocked it with his arm. The force pushed him back, but he did not fall. Ian then moved in and hit the Dark God in the stomach with his knee.

The Dark God gasped.

Ian followed with a hard punch to the face. The Dark God flew back again, spinning through the air like a rock thrown into the sky.

He landed hard on a mountain. The mountain broke in half. Rocks flew everywhere.

But he stood up.

“You think you can beat me?” the Dark God shouted.

“I don’t think,” Ian said. “I know.”

The two flew at each other again. Their fists met in the air. The sound was louder than thunder. The light from the hit lit up the clouds.

Again, they traded blows. Fists, kicks, claws. Each move made the ground below shake and crack. The sea boiled from the heat of their power. The sky split with each punch.

Ian hit the Dark God in the ribs. CRACK. A loud sound. The Dark God growled in pain. He tried to bite Ian, but Ian ducked and kicked him in the jaw.

Then, Ian jumped high and spun in the air. He came down with both fists on the Dark God’s back. The Dark God fell to the ground like a falling star.

BOOM.

A huge hole formed where he landed. Smoke and dust rose into the sky.

Ian looked down from above. “Had enough?” he asked.

The Dark God rose slowly. His body was shaking. His arms were cut. His black fire was fading.

“You… will not win…” the Dark God said, but his voice was weak.

Ian flew down fast and punched the Dark God in the face one more time. The ground cracked again.

“You lost,” Ian said. “Stay down.”

But the Dark God laughed, even while bleeding. “This… is not over.”

Suddenly, the clouds above began to spin. A dark light started to shine from the sky. The wind screamed. The sea lifted in tall waves. It felt like the world was ending.

Ian looked up. His face turned serious. “What are you doing now?”

“I called for help,” the Dark God said with a weak smile. “A power greater than mine… is coming.”

Ian stared at the sky. The dark light grew brighter. Something big was falling.

The sky broke open. A huge shape came down from the clouds. It was the true body of the Dark God… Bigger, stronger, and darker than before.

Ian stepped back. The power he felt now was different. It was heavier, colder, and full of death.

The Dark God’s smaller form looked up and smiled. “Now we are whole again.”

The two forms joined. A black light covered them. The air shook. The sea stopped moving for a second. Then, BOOM! The full form of the Dark God stood tall, twice the size from before, with fire in its eyes.

He moved fast. Before Ian could block, a strong hit landed on his face. Ian flew back, crashing through clouds and mountains.

The Dark God did not stop. He punched Ian again, sending him deep into the sea. Water exploded into the air. Ian tried to rise, but the Dark God was already above him. Another punch hit Ian’s back.

“You are strong,” the Dark God said, “but not enough now.”

Ian coughed. His body was shaking. His arms and legs felt heavy. But he looked up and smiled.

“Not yet,” Ian said. “I’m not done.”

The Dark God laughed. “What can you do now?”

Ian closed his eyes. A calm wind blew. Then, his body began to shine. The light grew brighter and brighter. The sea went silent. The clouds froze in place. The world itself held its breath.

Then… BOOM!

A light brighter than the sun lit up the world. Ian had changed. He had transformed into his Ultimate Nine Paths II.

His hair flowed like fire, as white as snow. His brow and his brow’s eyes shone like bright stars. His body glowed with a white aura. He stood tall and firm, calm and full of power.

The Dark God stopped smiling.

“Darn it! How many fucking transformations do you have!?”

Ian raised his hand. Power gathered in his fist. The world shook. The air cracked. Even time seemed to slow down.

Ian stepped forward. With one punch, he struck.

Ultimate Nine Paths Punch!

The hit did not just land; it ended everything. The power of the blow tore the sky apart. Half of the Curtained Imperium broke away like sand in the wind.

The Dark God’s full body took the punch head-on.

He did not scream.

He did not speak.

He did not move again.

His body, his voice, everything was gone.

No blood.

No cell.

No dust.

Not even an atom was left.

The wind stopped. The sea was still. The world was quiet.

Ian floated in the sky, eyes closed, chest rising and falling. “M*therfucker I won.”
