Re:Immortal - Chapter 109

An entirely glowing figure stepped out of the rift, it was impossible to make out any particular features besides the fact that It looked vaguely humanoid.

As soon as the stranger stepped out of the space crack, an intense pressure, unlike any Omis, had ever felt before suddenly descended upon him. The two energies inside his body suddenly began to clash against one another causing his left eye to constantly glow a blood-red color.

It seemed that whatever that figure was, the primordial energy inside of him did not like it at all, it seemed to roar in defiance as if it had met its natural enemy.

The divine energy on the other hand was the opposite. Coming to face with the mysterious glowing figure, Omis could feel his Divine energy being drawn into him as if it had met a distant relative, it did not seem to have any intention to be used against the figure no matter how hard Omis willed it.

“My dear, I can’t seem to be able to control my Qi.” Nervously said, Dina sweat dripping down her forehead.

Turning his head towards Lu Lu, Omis was surprised to see that she had a confused expression on her face and seemed completely unaffected by the figure.

‘Does it only affect ‘Originals’?’ His mind spun quickly at the strangeness of the situation.

The figure did not make any move yet, as it simply stood there in the air, seemingly observing them giving Omis a bad feeling.

He slowly retreated before grabbing both a stunned Dina and Lu Lu and dashing away towards the distance. The glowing figure remained rooted in its place as it continued to stare in the direction where Omis and his group ran away as if it was puzzled.

Not long after, the figure raised its hand and made a slashing motion in the air. The Qi in all surroundings seemed to heed its call as a massive ray of golden light materialized momentarily illuminating the entire underworld as it rushed towards Omis.

“Fuck, so the bastard made his move.” Growled Omis as he turned to glance at the massive ray of golden light rushing towards them, there was no way to avoid that, especially when both Lu Lu and Dina were with him.

Gritting his teeth, Omis came to an abrupt halt as he called out to his companions.

“Summon your shields, treasures, whatever it is that you have to protect yourself!” He ordered before turning to face the attack.

Unhesitatingly, Dina pulled out her giant furnace that expanded to turn even bigger to protect both her and Lu Lu before surrounding both of them with another layer of protection using her Qi.

Lu Lu’s face was full of anxiety as she stared at her Master who stood facing the attack all alone with his back facing her before she brought out a long flag that quickly grew to cover Dina’s furnace, adding another layer of protection before using her Qi to protect herself.

Omis on the other hand struggled to keep his primordial energy at bay as he faced the colossus beam attack.

Willing every ounce of his strength to his hand, Omis guided all of the primordial energy he could muster from his core to launch one attack backed with the full power from both of his bodies.

An attack he never tried before, yet had no chance but to take this gamble, his white hair fluttered in the air as he let out a roar full of resentment, primordial energy seemed to crack out of his body causing black and red flashes of lightning to appear.

His divine energy on the other hand seemed to hesitate before being forced to obey as it joined with the attack. Coating his fist with both types of energies, Omis could feel both of them clashing against one another once more yet he forcefully guided that conflict against the incoming attack.

With a common enemy, the two different energies lashed out as Omis threw one punch to face the attack. From one side was a completely golden world, from the other was one full of black and red lightning.

As the two forces collided, time and space seemed to turn silent for a second before a giant black hole materialized in the middle where the two forces clashed.

The surrounding area swiftly became engulfed in the aftermath causing the once desolated land to turn even more ruined as the realm threatened to collapse.

As the two clashed, Omis’s right arm unable to withstand the strain of both energies, plus the added impact was completely pulverized as he was sent flying.

The golden beam attack was also successfully repealed. Not lingering to look at his handiwork, Omis used the force of the clash to retreat even further as he arrived next to the girls.

Since he was the one to take on most of the attack, Lu Lu and Dina were easily able to repel the aftermath of the clash.

Seeing Omis’s ragged figure gets thrown back, Lu Lu’s heart threatened to leave her body as she rushed forward to help him.

“Master, your arm!” She called out anxiously as she stared at Omis’s now empty right shoulder.

He forced a smile, before replying.

“It’ll grow back, no worries.” He said, the wound already mending itself as his arm quickly began to regrow at a visible rate.

“Mister Omis, what was that thing?” nervously asked the little alchemist.

Shaking his head, Omis replied.

“I don’t know, but we shouldn’t stay here,” he said as he turned to point at the middle of the now ruined battlefield with his head.

The dark hole that materialized itself because of their clash was slowly devouring its surroundings, yet Omis could already feel the golden figure strange Qi forcefully holding it down.

Gulping down, Dina gave a grave nod before the trio once again turned into three beams of light that rushed into the distance, trying to make as much distance between them and the mysterious stranger as possible.

“Lu Lu, your Qi flow was unaffected by that ‘thing’?” Asked Omis.

“Hmm? No, master. I could just feel its aura weighing down on me, but my Qi flow was okay.” She replied.

“What about you Dina?” He turned to look at the little alchemist who solemnly nodded before replying.

“It was hard to control my Qi, it felt as if it did not want to listen to me.” She said, a shudder running down her body.

Hearing that, Omis’s suspicion was confirmed, the glowing figure was able to affect ‘Originals’ but not NPC’s.

‘Just what the fuck is going on?!’ He could feel his headache growing as the group desperately ran away.
