Two Great Masters! (2)

A grand battle between two mighty powers, careened through the void. With every blow exchanged between the two left scars, each matching the intensity of the battle. Later, the human army would inspect these scars, finding the point upon their convergence… Was gone, the nothingness of the void, had been deleted. The point of nothing in the void, was nothing… To some it didn't make sense, but those who knew, trembled at the simple thought of being anywhere nearby when the scars were made… A feeling that grew once they took full account of the battlefield's condition. 

Our fight continued, each of us causing heavy injury to each other, and the environment of the battlefield… It would never be the same again. 

"You Damn Brat! JUST DIE ALREADY!"

My response was a supercharged thundering whip of my tail. A twist of my body turned my wings into sharp blades, slicing through Ink's body. My sense of self was barely holding on. It was taking everything I had to gain control… This battle I was fighting, it was… Instinct… Pure Instinct. 

As our battle continued, the shockwaves of such power were more than enough to cause a whole host of havoc throughout the 3000 Worlds. However, the two who bore the brunt of this force, was none other than the Dragon Emperor and Phoenix Empress. Both were currently struggling to hold on. Even going as far as to siphon energy from the thundering gras I had accidentally created there several years ago. 

"Shit! What the hell is going on now?"

"I don't know, but whatever it is… I'm almost scared to ask."

"Oh my, the Dragon Emperor, scared?" 

"Oh shut up, you know good and well we can't hold on much longer-" 

Suddenly, Ink's real body appeared in front of the No-Return Pass. "Damn, more pests to deal with, Why I oughta-" A vicious swing of a hammer sent him hurtling far, far away from the pass. 

I roared, releasing an aura that only two, perhaps three, others had ever achieved. The results were clear, obvious and substantial. All Dragons and Phoenix, advanced an entire rank, that was just how potent my energy was… A small drain to help them out was so small to me, it didn't even classify as trivial. Another benefit was the eggs regardless of when they were laid, hatched. 

"My senses, I'm finally gaining some more control…Shit! He's back already." 

"BASTARD! THAT HURT!" … "You… Sorry sack of shit! I'm going to tear you asunder!"

I couldn't tell why I knew to do it, but I put up a barrier around the entire pass, and for good measure added one on the other passes. While we may be far away from the right now, such distances might as well be no distance at all to those at our level. 

Ink, realizing he was now at slight disadvantage, glanced at the gate. And… He was gone. 

"GET BACK HERE!" I roared with violent intensity, chasing after Ink, landing blow after blow. 

The leaders of the two clans landed on the ground breathing fast and heavy. They realized then, just how insanely powerful Ink was. But right after that they witnessed another, terribly impressive sight. 

"That… That was Yang Leiji, wasn't it?"

"Unless you know of another ridiculously powerful Phoenix that can send such a terrifying force flying like that."

"I don't… I guess that means the third generation had the right idea."

"I guess so… Say, do you feel like something is different with yourself?"

"Indeed, I do. I feel way younger, yet so much stronger. I honestly don't think I can properly put it into words."

"Agreed, this will take time to comprehend just what our new limits actually are now."

My battle with continued, this time as a chaotic battle through every single one of the Great Territories. Ink would try to ink everything up as he went. But, unfortunately for him, I wasn't your average open heaven realm. I was a Titled Great Emperor, and a hell of a mighty one at that. 

"IN MY NAME! TEMPORAL THUNDER DIVINE MONARCH, FLOOD THE WORLD WITH MY PROTECTION!" 

Instantly, from behind and in front of Ink, Lightning appeared, eating away at the ink force that he wasted. My lightning was powerful, but… 

Ink smirked. "There, that should bring us back down to a more comfortable position. Don't you think?" 

"Just you wait. I'm not done yet." 

This time, we fought, we fought with raw martial arts. An unfortunate outcome because I'm still incredibly limited by experience, as a result I must adapt as I fight. In other words, I'm like a novice in this fight, while he is a seasoned expert.

"Brother, did you feel that?" 

"I did… It seems he's done it."

"Maybe he's just started it? And he doesn't seem to have full control of it yet." 

"I wish we could help him. But we still have control issues ourselves." 

"Really? It feels like everything will be fine even if we just go out there and join him." 

"Know what..? You're right. Let's go?"

"Let's go." 

The twins left the place that was their home, for the first time since they could remember. They were ready for battle, they coiled around each other as they flew towards me, in a double helix formation. 

The battle between Ink and I, could be seen by all those who called the 3000 worlds home. A vision in the sky, a battle with intensity like none other. A clash of raw martial arts, powered up and enhanced with our respective powers. This battle continued… 

"Sister, did you feel that?"

"Brother, if you did, so did I."

"He's creating a whole new type of energy to combat him-" 

"A fierce thunder to destroy the inky swamp."

My brothers and sisters looked up, watching as I fought. They learned as they watched. However, they, like all others with the ancient divine spirits, had assumed the form of their bloodline. 

My wives, they were in seclusion, preparing themselves to be strong enough for my return. The only news they got was from the one maid they allowed into their chambers. They'd smirk and seductively lick their lips at the news. 

My mothers were now actively trying to comprehend what was happening as they held a great deal of worry for the son they saw fighting, fighting the enemy they themselves could do nothing to help with.
