Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer Chapter 288: Philip's Battle

Six days after Philip entered the volcano.

On the third day, he has changed his training method, right now he was completely submerged inside the lava and is performing the yoga poses which are used for body cultivation. But he is not solely concentrated on the body, he is going for the elemental fusion.

Three days earlier, he has a very peculiar idea. All this while, he has been treating himself as a Dual elemental Warrior-Mage. But what if he treated his metal and fire element as a single ent.i.ty. What if he stopped looking at it as two different ent.i.ties co-existing together?

But he cannot find a proper way to visualize it and then came this idea. He had a conversation with Sam on the last day on the island about elemental fusion and Sam said that the body cultivation along with the elemental energy could help.

Thus, he wanted to absorb the energy from the Magma which has both fire and metal inside. And to his surprised, his not so common idea actually succeeded and he could feel his body conditions changing a bit.

For starters, his skin was hardened quite well and when he tried to use elemental fusion., he could feel more at ease. And the percentage of fusion definitely improved, albeit very minutely.

So, for the past three days, he was working on improving his elemental fusion.

But on the sixth day, he was suddenly jolted awake, because he felt that the magma around him becoming more turbulent, the calmness and stillness were nowhere to be seen. It is a complete mess, which made Philip frustrated. He came out to see what is happening only to see a person is standing on the edge of the mouth of the volcano.

He is looking at Philip who came just popped his head out of the magma pool. Even before, Philip could ask what that guy's problem is, he was greeted with a series of wind blades one after another hitting him and his vicinity.

Philip became furious. He is barely staying safe in a lava pool with the help of the spiritual energy s.h.i.+eld he created if, by any chance the attack disrupted the spiritual energy, he would have died.

Even though he could resist lava for a few minutes and make his way out, he highly doubted that the uninvited guest would let him do that.

Philip, immediately jumped out of the pool, without a second thought. He landed on the small platform at the edge of the pool and looked at the person coldly.

He is in a disadvantageous position now. He cannot deal with this person directly from the bottom and he has to climb up as fast as he can.

Philip immediately sprung into action. He leaped towards the wall of the volcano and started climbing up as fast as he can. His senses are completely on high alert as he sensed any incoming attacks.

And soon, many wind blades started coming towards and every time an attack came, he thrust against the wall and jumped to the opposite side.

But, after three times, the move was cracked. When he leaped to the opposite side, he was attacked again and this time, the wind blade brushed past his cheek leaving a scar on his face. He was quite gloomy and looked at the opponent while cursing inside.

'I have to ask Sam to make one of those floating boards for me.' He swore in his heart that he should definitely pester that guy until he made one. As for, how he would make it feasible for his elements to be useful, that guy can decide himself.

Philip's started becoming metallic. This is the basic technique of every metal elemental user. They can solidify their skin in such a way that they can increase their defense a bit.

Philip continuously ignored the attacks he didn't care anymore. He could take these few hits. The face of the opponent changed, He wanted to take down Philip with the help of the environment. He can save a lot of effort, but Philip didn't allow that.

But he didn't dare to use very large movements. This is the mouth of an active volcano, if he made huge turmoil in the wind and created tornados, then he would change from hunter to a being a prey.

He started concentrating wind blades at the tip of each finger as Philip climbed at maximum speed.

When Philip is just four feet away from the top, the opponent waved his hands, ten wind blades crisscrossed each other as they formed a net and shot towards Philip. The more distance they traveled the gaps between the net widened and covered a large area.

The intensity of the attack is also quite strong. Even if Philip can escape at a little, the surrounding rock could break without giving any place to move as for jumping to the opposite side, it is almost impossible.

But Philip seemed unbothered because he covered himself with spiritual energy and jumped diagonally upwards on the opposite side. He twisted his body in extremely weird angles in the air as he pa.s.sed through the gap of the wind blade net and landed on the top.

It would be more appropriate to call it a crash, rather than landing, He slowly stood and looked at the opponent.

"Now, we can have a proper chat, don't you think so?" Philip said with a cold smile and extended his hand and sent an extremely intense fireball at the opponent.

The opponent sneered and easily dodged but there is not much distance on the mouth of the volcano. They only have a ring of rock with a thickness of two feet. Fall on either side is not a great experience.

Philip also made his move. The other party is clearly a Wind Mage, so he would try to keep a distance between them so that he can have an advantage.

But the battleground now is disadvantageous for both of them at least Philip can still take it if he fell into the lava, but the opponent cannot even do that.

Philip started throwing fireball one after another

But the man used the wind elemental energy and blocked every attack.

Soon, the man was annoyed, he is a Grand realm cultivator and Philip is attacking very frequently and repeatedly with the same moves, so he sneered and said.

"You should have wasted enough spiritual energy, I just need you alive, so it is about time I end this fight."

With those words, He breathed in a lot and his lungs expanded to an unnaturally large size like balloons, it is as if he doesn't even have any rib cage at all.

And a large wind cannon was shot at Philip who is on the exactly opposite side of the volcano mouth.

He smiled at the person and prepared himself for the attack, if it hit him, he would crash down the mountain into the woods and he would be barely alive and that is if he is lucky enough.

His feet shone with red hot light and the metallic extension appeared on the bottom of the feet and drilled themselves into the rocks below.

After that, he extended both his hands and placed them right before his chest with his palms wide open. The metallic hands morphed into a thin large bowl-like structure. The ends of the bowls are emitting flames.

As soon as the wind hit the bowl, the rocks under Philip's feet cracked due to the impact, and the wind which hit the bowl diverged and turned back towards the opponent, at this moment, the flames are intensified, and with the help of the wind current, the flames enveloped the opponent completely.

He wasn't able to take the impact and fell off the mountain. Philip didn't rest and leaped to the opposite side. He wasn't surprised to see the person balancing himself with the wind, but he could stop moving down the mountain.

Philip jumped down and as his feet hit, they morphed into smooth flat surfaces as he slid down the mountain.

Unlike the opponent, who is having a hard time controlling it, he is actually a bit more relaxed and confident. He skated down and due to that, he caught up with his opponent who was completely stunned.

Before he knew it, Philip raised his fist which was covered with metal and then heated as several spikes protruded from the surface of the fist. He punched the man squarely in the chest puncturing his lungs.

The opponent who just barely balanced himself lost it again and crashed into the rocky protrusion breaking it squarely before cras.h.i.+ng down.

Philip slid down slowly and the person was barely able to move.

As he walked towards him, he noticed that he has some kind of token in his hands which he was about to crush, Philip morphed his leg again and with a kick, the arm was cut apart completely.

He squatted down and said with a smile. "Why the hurry, my friend, we just met and you are already trying to leave? Come on. now let us start with your introduction."

The other party didn't talk at all. Philip took the spatial ring and forcefully opened it. He took out a token and smiled.

"Well, the Lightning Spear Sect. When did you guys become so bold? You can't even conquer your islands fully and you already trying to spread your hands towards thunder G.o.d temple's territory?"

The opponent was horrified at Philip's words.

"So, what is your goal? Don't tell me, you are here to kill me?" His words were completely laced with killing intent.

The opponent became desperate and shook his head in denial and opened his mouth.

"We have orders to take you hostage. I don't have any intention of killing you."

"Oh? Hostage? Don't tell me you wanted to threaten Sam?" Philip looked at him as if he was an idiot.

The other party stayed silent but the answer is obvious.

"You guys are pretty dumb aren't you? That jerk goes crazy whenever someone threatens him, do you know he became a mad man and slaughtered more than three hundred members when someone tried to kidnap his teammates and the worst part is he doesn't even have a proper friends.h.i.+p with the person who is under threat.

You should do your homework better. I bet your higher-ups didn't even think twice before giving you the mission when they saw he is a Great realm cultivator. Can't your chicken brains even think why he has his own city? Stupid."

The opponent became horrified as he heard the words and didn't know how to react. But he felt that everything Philip said is correct. They didn't think much when Sam is their opponent and they only targeted his friends due to the presence of Vulture.

"Well, it is too late to realize it now. Better luck next life." With those words, he stood up, and before the other party could plead for mercy, he kicked again and the head was severed from his body.
