Chapter 533 Arad Vs Shi: Ever Evolving Beast
Arad stood there, staring at Shi with a passive face. "Let's try this," He waved his hand, and her shoulder got blasted.
[HP: 1100/1100]=>[HP: 923/1100]
He smiled, "So it works,"
Instead of using the void to create magic and hit Shi, Arad opted to use the void to compress the air and fire it at her.
Those attacks have no mana in them since they are just compressed air, the same as lifting a stone and throwing it with magic.
Shi stared at her bleeding shoulder, confused at how did it happen. Her arm was there, and now it wasn't. The bones of her shoulder were showing up as she bled.
CLACK!
[HP: 923/1100]=>[HP: 1100/1100]
BAM! She lunged forward, grabbing Arad by the face and diving with him underground, trying to grind him on the stones.
[HP:912/975]=>[HP:875/975]=>[HP:842/975]=>[HP:803/975]
Arad smiled. ZON! He teleported to the surface, looking forward, "So you're coming at me?"
SWOSH! Shi emerged from the ground, swinging her claw at him.
Arad lunged back, and her fist shattered the ground, sending a blast of dust and stones.
SPLAT! SPLAT! As if swinging, she chased Arad with her front claws swinging at him left and right.
Arad opened his mouth, and a blast of the void rushed out of his jaws.
In the blink of an eye, Shi dodged and swung both of her claws down at him, smacking him deep into the ground.
[HP:803/975]=>[HP:701/975]
She dived after Arad without wasting a moment, intending to finish him off.
The ground around them dried up, compressing to the ground.
Arad giggled, extending his claws forward. BOM! The forest exploded with a geyser of water, sending Shi into the sky with a gaping hole in her chest.
[HP: 1100/1100]=>[HP: 512/1100]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Water hates to be compressed. How did it feel? Worse than air, I assume." Arad swam up the geyser he made, finally taking flight after Shi.
The barbarian watched in horror as the sky turned red, raining tainted water and blood.
"Monsters!" A barbarian gasped.
"Arad can unleash that much power?" Nina stared at the girls.
"Don't look at us. He never goes all out when around us. Even with you, I bet he never seriously tried to harm you." Aella said with a proud face for some reason.
[HP: 512/1100]=>[HP: 1100/1100]
Shi glared at Arad the moment she got healed. A deep growl escaped her throat.
Arad gasped as he looked at her skin. Something was off about it. Her bloodied scales glow with a faint light. But he didn't have time to worry about her.
Extending his claws forward, he unleashed several blasts at her.
BA-BA-BAM!
[HP: 1080/1100]=>[HP: 1070/1100]=>[HP: 1065/1100]
"No damage?" Arad gasped. Those blasts blew her shoulder before, but now they did almost nothing.
[HP: 1065/1100]=>[HP: 1100/1100]
She immediately healed, and her skin turned into a metallic hue. Her weight increased, and she fell straight down at Arad, smacking him on the ground.
[HP:701/975]=>[HP:320/975]
ZON! Arad teleported away with a grin, "I see! I can see it now," He laughed.
[BP: 227.3L]=>[BP: 161.8L]
[HP:320/975]=>[HP:975/975]
Arad fully healed, extending his hands forward, "Your soul!"
Water got sucked from the ground with Arad's void, compressing into tens of bullets before firing at Shi.
[HP: 1100/1100]=>[HP: 365/1100] Her body got ripped apart, riddled with holes like a honeycomb. But...
[HP: 365/1100]=>[HP: 1100/1100] She instantly healed like it was nothing, and even more, her scales gleamed with the same faint light. CRACK! Her body suddenly became larger, twice as much as Arad's draconic form.
[HP: 1100/1100]=>[HP: 1100/2200]=>[HP: 2200/2200]
"She's still evolving," Zephyr said, "With each passing moment, she gets closer to the tarrasque's true power."
They stared at the massive Shi. Her skin had turned brown, and spikes emerged from her turtle-like back. Her two front arms have grown larger and muscular, and the two large muscular arms she fused into them. Her tail became far longer than her body, extending for over six hundred meters, and swung left and right.
"She's like a frog's tadpole," Eris gasped.
"Earlier, she was but a fetus. That's why she bled everywhere. Now, she's out of the egg," Zephyr growled, "Soon, she would grow into the real thing,"
Arad flew away from her while facing her, extending his claws forward. "Once more!"
The water bullets rushed at her, but they simply bounced off her carapace. Those are already useless.

She insteadly healed the thin body hair she lost, [HP: 2195/2200]=>[HP: 2200/2200]
ZON! Arad teleported to the tip of her tail, grabbing it and running around her in circles. His hands burned as her blood tried to kill him, but he didn't give it care and only focused on making this long thing as compact as possible.
[HP:962/975]=>[HP:942/975]=>[HP:913/975]
ROAR! Shi roared as the bones in her tail shattered as Arad tied her with it.
[HP: 2120/2200]=>[HP: 2040/2200]=>[HP: 1960/2200]
Arad let go of her tail as she started to heal and smiled.
[HP: 1960/2200]=>[HP: 2200/2200]
Using his void, he vibrated the particles in the air at an extreme speed, heating the air to an unimaginable degree and bursting the whole place ablaze.
ROAR! Shi roared as she got burned, but her skin still reflected the flames that contained Arad's void.
[HP: 2200/2200]=>[HP: 1680/2200]
"It doesn't matter if you reflect it. Burning you wasn't my goal," Arad giggled, forcing all the void to halt immediately.
Heat is the kinetic energy of particles, so by stopping them completely. The whole forest froze in a flash.
CRACK! Shi's body twisted as puked, her skin falling apart and her bones cracking.
[HP: 1680/2200]=>[HP: 263/2200]

[Time Slow: 90%]
[HP: 263/2200]=>[HP: 483/2200]
Arad didn't know Shi's stats or her healing rate. But, there is one thing that he noticed. Her healing isn't instant. But it happens in one second. Using his magic should give him time to attack again before she fully heals.
He flew at her as fast as he could in the slowed time.
[HP: 483/2200]=>[HP: 703/2200]
CLING! He swung his weapon at her, and both her nipples burst into blood, digging two massive holes in her chest.
[HP: 703/2200]=>[HP: 0/2200]
As Arad flew behind with a wide smile, carrying the exploding nipple knife in his hands, he looked back. "No nipples for you,"
As he said those words, he gasped. His instincts told him, it wasn't over.
[HP: 0/2200]=[HP: 220/2200]
A tarrasque is immune to death. You can't simply kill it and be done.
Arad's time spell ended, and Shi regenerated in the blink of an eye.
[HP: 220/2200]=>[HP: 2200/2200]
CRACK! Her body expanded once again as she evolved, tripling her size as if she breathed.
[HP: 2200/2200]=>[HP: 6600/6600]
She rapidly turned, swinging her claw at Arad.
ZON! He teleported into the sky above her, shifting back into his humanoid form with a grin on his face.
^I see. You take damage and evolve to resist it giving yourself immunity to all elements, magic, and physical attacks. You also boast immunity to death and even a full health regeneration within less than one second.^ He giggled, lifting his hands.
^I'm not risking any hit from you since I know your raw stats should be far higher than mine now and may be even comparable to Nina's.^
Arad burst out laughing as Shi jumped into the air after him, extending her claw to catch him.
"I love the strong ones. I would have dragged you to my lair if you had a bit more sense in you." His eyes glared down at her, "But, you die here,"
