Chapter 551: 548: Laka's first battle.

Iem Turo then turned around and made his way out of the arena. As he walked, he looked at his fist, which had struck Horune's Greatsword. There, he could see a small cut that was healing at a fast pace due to his Spiritual Energy. It was only a tiny cut, something that couldn't bother a cultivator or demon beast at all. However, Iem was anything but happy with that outcome.

'Just what is this Purple Flame Weapon? I heard about its power that surpasses weapons at the same level, but I never cared about it. However, it did pass through my crystallization. Just what was that Purple Flame? I need to research it after the Havenly Competition is over. Also...'

Iem looked at the Greatsword that fell far in the distance. The edge had bent back in the place he hit it, but the weapon was still pretty much good enough for use.

'What a though weapon. I attacked it with the intention of breaking it in half, but all I did was damage the edge a little. Is it also an effect of the Purple Flame?'

Iem then shook his head and left. 

Right after, Horune's protector appeared by his side. Almost all the Heavenly Competition participants have Peak Divinity Realm protectors who came with them. That being said, Horune was also the same. His protector could tell that Horune hasn't died yet. He used his powerful Spiritual Energy to seal Horune's injury and drove the foreign energy out of his body. After that, he put a healing pill inside Horune's mouth.

Horune's condition began to improve. Seeing that, his protector sighed in relief. Even if they don't get a Dalin Universe slot, they definitely don't want to lose their Heavenly Divine Soul Owner if possible. He enveloped Horune's with his Spiritual Energy and quickly left. There were still other fights to come after this one.

Outside the arena, Krune was really shocked that someone could take one of his Purple Flame Weapons with his body alone. He was also curious as to what was that change in Iem's fists. He had never seen anything like that before.

"The Heavenly Race. To think that Iem was part of the Heavenly Race."

Krune turned to the other participant on his side and couldn't help but ask.

"The Heavenly Race? Does it have something to do with the Heavenly Divine Soul and Core?"

The guy looked at Krune, noticing that it was the wisp who had shared food with him before, he decided to answer the question.

"You aren't entirely wrong to think that way. The Heavenly Race is a race loved by the Heavens, or that is what others say. They boast strong Souls, Cultivations, and Bodies. Their cultivation speed and talents are almost unparalleled. Even if someone is as good as them in one of those three fields, they would not be with all three like the Heavenly people."

"It really makes one think about the Heavenly Core, which is part of the Heavens itself. However, their race doesn't have it easy either. Their birth rate is extremely low. Divine Beasts have a hard time reproducing, but they are still far above the Heavenly Race's birth rate. Because of that, their numbers are low, and you will rarely ever see a Heavenly Divine Race member. I would be impressed if the entire Dalin Universe had more than a few tens of thousands of them. They have also gone extinct in many Universes already; that's how rare they are."

Krune then asked.

"Is that thing that happened to his fist related to the Heavenly Race?"

The guy nodded.

"The Heavenly Race's Crystallisation Ability. I don't know much about it either. But from what I read in the records of my clan, it is not like his body really transformed. Instead, the very laws that form their bodies can be changed in a very unique way. No one other than the Heavenly Race can do that. Don't ask me how it works, though. I only know that they become almost indestructible at their cultivation realm with that. The guys in the first group are quite unlucky. No one there will be able to take Iem down."

Krune nodded before thanking the guy.

'A tough opponent. Fortunately, I only need one of the Dalin Universes' five slots. If it's not necessary, I will simply avoid my battle against him.'

The battles in the first group continued. The fabric of space kept breaking apart as explosions and earthquakes happened in the arena. Sure enough, this wasn't a kind of competition that you could allow to happen in the middle of a city. 

In the second group, Tarande won his battle as the majority expected. In the third group, Waka Ulin also passed easily through his opponent. The same happened for Tiango, the Burning Heaven Snake in the fourth group.

As the battles continued, one thing became clear for everyone. Even between the Peak Divine Path Realm Heavenly Divine Soul Owners, there were those who are much stronger than others. Krune's purple flame weapons also made a big difference in the battles. So far, Krune had seen seven participants used one of his creations. Three of them were even the seeded participants of their own group.

"Tenth Group, Kizan Universe, Laka."

"Tenth Group, Zantar Universe, Gunile Yukan."

Laka was finally going up to the stage for the first time. He didn't even bother to use his Human Form anymore and leaped on it in his Dragon and Phoenix form. As mentioned before, Laka was born from a Dragon and Phoenix. Still, his bloodline is not fused, so he can't be considered a Dracophoenix.

Gunile Yukan is a cultivator who focuses on Space laws. Before becoming a Heavenly Divine Soul Owner, his was first a Space Heavenly Fragment one. Almost all his Space Laws reached culmination, and he was one step away from doing it with the last one, Connection. After that, he would only need to merge them together into the Major Law of Space.

Laka, as a Dragon and Phoenix, obviously had his main focus on Fire Laws. Other than that, he was very good at Wind as well. All his Fire Laws already reached culmination and were just waiting for him to merge them into the Major Law of Fire. The Wind laws were a little behind, but they were mostly there to support his Fire Ones.

Laka has no need to make blue flames, as Krune does. That's because he is a Fire-Type Divine Beast, or even a two fire-related Divine Beasts in one if you prefer. His innate Dragon and Phoenix Fire are already powerful enough as they are. With his Fire Laws to complement them, they were best used without alterations.

"Begin!"

Laka's Dragon Wings burnt with fierce fire as he pounced at Gunile. Simultaneously, everyone could see that his flames and even his entire body were covered in a faint Purple Hue color.

"Dragon Dive!"

Supported by the Wind Element, Laka was anything but slow. However, his opponent was still a Havenly Divine Soul owner who focused on Space Laws.

"Space Contortion!"

The Space around Gunile bent, which allowed him to cross several kilometers in a single step.

BOOM!

Laka smashed the place Gunile was a second ago. A mix of Dragon and Phoenix Fire exploded outwards, scourging the whole arena as the space shattered. The common Spatial Storms behind the broken space soon spread everywhere. That was also why no one dared to teleport since they might be caught by one of those.

Still, Gunile's Space bending ability was almost as good as a teleport. It was evident that his Contraction and Expansion Sub-Laws reached the highest level. Gunile was a long-ranged fighter, just like Krune, so he definitely wouldn't get close to Laka either. 

Gunile didn't stop there, though.

"Lightning Warp!"

Gunile's second-best Laws and Elemental control were lightning-related. Not only he reached a high degree of proficiency, but he was also even able to fuse Space and Lightning attacks together.

Powerful Arcs of Lightning entered the shattered space around him, disappearing inside. Just as Laka was about to pursue him once more, those Lightning Attacks came out from thin air as if they teleported there. 

Laka narrowed his eyes and began to spin his body.

"Fire Tornado!"

The bolts of Lightning that Laka wouldn't be able to dodge hit the fire tornado, quickly scattering everywhere. Gunile couldn't help but be impressed with that. He didn't go all out just now, but his attacks were definitely strong enough to at least cause some injury. However, Laka scattered them all as if they were nothing.

It didn't stop there as the Fire Tornado came Directly at him.

Gunile wasn't afraid, though. He once more used his Space Contortion skill, quickly traveling several kilometers in a blink of an eye. once more

'So what if you can resist my attack? If you can't get close to me, all is meaningless.'

The first attacks were just probation since neither side had released their Domains yet. However, Laka is not known for being patient, so he didn't hold back anymore.

"I'm the flames, and the flames are me. The World of Fire Domain!"

Laka's Domain spread out, making the temperature in the arena soar! Everyone was taken aback by Laka's Domain since it was the first time in the competition he used it. Even in the Mirror World, he refrained from using it since his copies would probably do the same. His World of Fire Domain was simply enormous. However, such a thing would usually backlash at the user. With his Domain's power so scattered, it wouldn't affect his opponent that much.

Gunile snorted and released his Domain as well.

"Space Order Domain!"
