Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

Zaphirox was about to tackle Aion with his immense body when he saw this one vanish. There was a shock in the Eldar's eyes as he could not believe the opponent had just evaporated, but it was nothing compared to what he felt next.

Everybody in the arena saw how Aion jumped in the exact moment to avoid Zaphirox's dive, only to land in the head of this one the next second!

Silence reigned as people could not believe what they were seeing. Zaphirox marched forward after missing his target, not realizing that Aion was on top of his head.

Of course, the Eldar did not take long to perceive Aion's presence, and he reacted as well as one could expect.

"You bastard!"

Zaphirox roared in rage as he rose to the sky while twisting his body, sending Aion flying away.

Aion's calm smile did not vanish as he moved through the air and saw the giant Eldar returning, full of rage. Just as Zaphirox was about to clash with him, he moved his body to the left, narrowly dodging the charge.

Zaphirox charged against Aion again and again, carrying a massive momentum and gravitational force that manifested as gigantic black waves. Still, the young Neo-Demon just kept moving in the air, dodging all the attacks without any spell or mobilizing his energy.

Noah, Beelzebub, Sirik, Athea, and all the others that passed to the next round could not hide their surprise and awe as they saw the person they had never paid attention to before practically toying with Zaphirox, one of the strongest geniuses.

They used all types of skills, but none of the geniuses could see the technique that Aion was using to dodge all those strikes. It seemed like he was simply moving along the wind, nothing more.

Zaphirox's rage finally peaked as he rose into the sky, making his energy explode to the point that even his bloodline began to burn, exponentially enhancing his strength and bloodline powers.

Dark gravitational shock waves emerged from every corner of Zaphirox as his body began to compress, adopting a three-meter-tall humanoid form.

"¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!"

Zaphirox's body now unleashed a physical power many times greater than before. Those with high enough cultivation could see that he did not simply morph his flesh and blood but condensed it to a cellular level.

That giant winged serpentine body was now just three meters tall, and the amount of energy in each cell was outrageous.

"Remaining in this state puts immense pressure on my life and soul force. I intended to use it as a trump card in the finals, but you really pissed me off!"

Zaphirox's voice made it seem that the sky would split apart. He said nothing more before flashing toward Aion again, this time at a much faster speed and unleashing a gravitational force that sealed space-time.

Athea and Sirik, the duo known to have the stronger bodies of the thirty-three geniuses, were surprised to see the might of Zaphirox's body. Even they would have trouble facing the Eldar in melee combat now.

Aion could feel Zaphirox's strength, and the punch coming to his face could easily level a Middle World. The seal on space-time made it impossible to do any sort of teleportation, and the air itself felt like mercury.

Despite all that, just as Zaphirox's fist was about to land on Aion's face, this one simply moved to the right and easily dodged it.

"¡BOOM!"

A blast of kinetic energy emerged from Zaphirox's punch, hitting the air beside Aion. The power in the Eldar's fist was immense, but he couldn't care less about it since the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage once again dodged his attack without showing any effort.

"AHHH!"

Zaphirox's roared as his eyes went red with rage, and he kept punching forward like a maniacal beast. His attacks were immensely powerful and carried great gravitational forces, but none could touch Aion.

No matter the speed or strength of Zaphirox's attacks, Aion always managed to dodge every single one of them at the last moment.

All the geniuses looking at the fight clenched their fists, and none of them dared to mock Zaphirox for his rage since they were sure they would all feel the same. Even now, they could not figure out the key behind Aion's skills, and none of them thought they could touch this one using melee attacks.

It was not only the geniuses but even Rank 9 life forms looking at the battle could not help but frown as they failed to understand how Aion was doing it. The simplest answer would be that his reflexes and speed were that impressive, but none of them could believe that someone with a Human Lineage could reach that level of physical might.

A Rank 7 life form using skills that even Rank 9 could not fully decipher was amazing, but it happened before in the Prima Universe, with those like the Samsara Thearch and the King in Yellow doing it multiple times.

"¡ENOUGH!"

Zaphirox's roared with absolute rage as he jumped back, putting himself exactly fifty meters away from Aion. The anger burning in his heart was so great that it surpassed the ability of his willpower to keep his emotions in check.

The Eldar's bloodline force exploded in the form of a red pillar that reached the sky as he adopted a battle stance and began to gather every ounce of power into his right fist.

Aion's smile vanished as he saw the behavior of Zaphirox, and he softly shook his head but did not move, nor did he interrupt this one's charge.

After pouring all of his energy and power into his right fist, Zaphirox did not say a word before flashing forward with so much power that he broke the space in front of him and moved so fast that it seemed faster than time!

Zaphirox showed a fierce smile as he threw that punch that had all his power.

"CRACK!"

The sound of bones shattering echoed across the arena, marking the end of the last fight.
