Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 2387: Clash Of Venerables II [23]

-----

BOOOMMM!!!

"..."

Héluna remained in silence, glaring at the body of Uroboros, half of it had been torn to shreds, and yet the thing was still alive.

It was honestly impressive how physically tough it was, no living being should have been able to survive that.

Except for very strong Venerables, such as Deus, or perhaps Drake, Héluna thought.

And yet, that wasn't the only interesting or fascinating thing about this monster...

She quickly found out that it was rapidly regenerating, in fact, at a very ridiculously fast rate.

New flesh, tentacles, and eyes popped out of its wounds in mere seconds.

"Its regeneration rate is impressive but even then... this thing shouldn't, in theory, be as strong as a Venerable, at most, it possess the durability of a God at Rank 10? However..."

There was another factor that made Uroboros "so tough", although it wasn't actually as tough as it seemed, the thing is, the power it possessed weakened all attacks.

"Instead of reinforcing its body durability, it weakens my attacks... how is this even possible?"

The worst part was that Héluna couldn't really quite calculate how much her powers were weakened because it was constantly varying.

"Do you have a name, alien?"

"My creator... named me Uroboros..."

"Why do you want my master to become your vessel?"

"He is the perfect vessel... I require his body... to become perfect."

"What will you do when you become perfect?"

"I will show everyone my perfection..."

"Hmph, what a shallow dream. I am afraid my master would not agree with that."

Oberon, however, had entered into a deep state of slumber, and had yet to wake up. The Elven Gods that came with Héluna were all inside of the formation, keeping the machinery and everything constantly working.

They were too busy and essential for Oberon's resurrection, and therefore Héluna told them she would protect them, and that they didn't need to fight anymore.

"I don't care... I don't care if he doesn't agree... I will make him agree... he will become... me... and I will become him... don't you understand? It would only... benefit him... he would become perfect. With me!"

Uroboros started crawling back to Héluna, as the Venerable glared at him with a disgusted face full of disdain.

"No, my great master is someone with a great dream, one we all share with him... he is already perfect, even before fusing with an abomination like you. I have to admit, your powers are impressive. But aside from being a sponge for damage, you cannot really harm me."

Héluna rose her hands, as two giant blades of moonlight manifested, swinging them at Uroboros as he charged at her with all his Psychic Power.

CLAASH! CLAASH! CLAASH! CLAASH!

Four powerful slashing attacks crashed into his Psychic Barrier, shattering it and sending him flying down, his tentacles were quickly sliced apart, and as the Venerable went to split him into two halves, Uroboros swiftly avoided, flying away from her and quickly beginning to conjure his strongest psychic attack.

"PERISH."

A gigantic black sphere of concentrated telekinetic energy warped space and manifested a black dot of void, breaking apart space and exploding in front of Héluna!

BOOOMMM!!!

The monster glanced through the smoke, seeing Héluna right there, standing on her ground, her Aura surging, although it looked slightly smaller... her body had taken no damage, but her Barriers had been weakened.

"That was an interesting attack."

Héluna quickly conjured dozens of rotating moons around Uroboros, which she unified into constellations and then a nebula of bright purple and pink clouds, the same technique as before.

But even stronger and faster, as she compressed and then collapsed Uroboros over and over again, battering his body with damage and explosions, tearing him to shreds.

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

"NGAAAAAARRRGGHH...!"

Uroboros let out an agonizing scream one last time, before his entire body disappeared amidst the explosions of moonlight, not even his damage negation could go as far as negating the tremendous power of a Venerable who had managed to refine ten ascendancy law rings such as Héluna, a powerhouse among powerhouses.

"Hmph! That was annoying at best..."

She cleansed her hands, glancing back at her master, any minute now, he would finally resurrect, emerging from that giant flask and stepping into this world. Using his powers, he will take her and everyone else back to Yggdrasil, where they would finally go down into the world's depths, and reach Yggdrasil's roots.

Meanwhile, amidst the rubble below her, a humanoid figure emerged, throwing away large pieces of burnt wood everywhere, gasping for air.

"Haaahh... Haaahh... Ugh... Chris? Lucia?! Someone's there?!"

It was Jake, the blonde young man looked around confused, with his bright red eyes scanning the burnt landscape in front of him, born from burnt wound and its own fossilized ashes due to all the explosions constantly burning what was already burned already.

His body was tattered on terrible wounds, and several pieces of bone had pierced his body, Uroboros had made sure he would die, and yet Jake survived, he was tougher than Uroboros imagined, taking out the bones piercing his body and slowly regenerating.

"Lucia! Chris!"

He called for them, walking around the rubble, his newly awakened Psychic Powers giving him small headaches as he felt the presences of his friends nearby.

They were thankfully alive, but their lifeforce seemed very small, they were dying.

"Shit, shit...! Where are you?! Guys?!"

Her an through the rubble, until he felt an awfully painful, piercing headache, glancing at his left, he ran into the pile of burnt wood, throwing it away by making his hands grow into giant bony claws, finding Chris gasping for air, coughing, most of his body was burnt red.

"Chris!"

"Uuhh... Ugh..."

"Fuck, shit! Ahhh! W-Where is it?! This!"

Jake quickly tapped a bracelet wrapped around his left arm, as he saw a little black portal open, this led to a small Inventory where he stored items.

This was a gift from Drake, an Inventory Bracelet he loaded with Elixirs, Potions, Food, and Water for them.

He took out the Elixirs he saw, opening them and pouring them over his body, Chris groaned in pain, they felt like acid in his burnt skin, steam coming out of his body as he was painfully regenerating.

"Aaaaahhh! Aaaaagh!"
