There's no way a Rank 8 Peak Stage would had died so easily. But what I did should had been enough to make her scram away. However, she was insistent and stubborn as hell. The damned Leviathan quickly remerged from the ocean. Her entire frozen body was unfrozen in an instant…
But how?
Easy, she can boil water inside of her body, this means her body temperature can reach incredibly high grades at her own desire. She simply boiled her internal body and unfroze herself completely. A trick only a few could ever pull.
Nonetheless, it wasn't without getting weakened. Her Health had dropped significantly, and she was now below 70% of her Health. Still pretty high, but if I keep pushing, I think I can handle a being of a Stage above me.
"GROOOARRR!"
CLAAASH!
She quickly aimed to bite my head. However, I moved swiftly, raising my legs and kicking her chin, throwing her into the skies.
BAAAM!
She suddenly flew into the skies, surpassing the clouds as Skadi and Uller emerged around her, attacking her with slashing and piercing blows constantly, piercing through her skin and her scales at the same time as I reached her in an instant, she reacted in surprise, as my fists suddenly gathered countless quantities of ores I conjured using Earth Dragon's Affinity for Earth and then began punching her with my Orichalcum Claws.
"Divine Draconic Arts: [Orichalcum Claws]!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Of course, I had yet to even go serious. Draconic Arts were extremely advanced physical and magical techniques created by dragons and for dragons. It utilized divine power and their Draconic Auras. The stronger the Auras were, the stronger the Draconic Arts were.
In mere seconds, the Leviathan's entire body gained countless slashing wounds as parts of her flesh and scales were tore apart. However, her relentlessness was admirable. She quickly used her water manipulation to manipulate her own blood and then made it into spiraling spears that pierced through my chest.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
"You're not bad!" I laughed, quickly punching her entire body once more, and then…!
"Divine Draconic Arts: Orichalcum Scales!"
FLASH!
My entire body was reinforced and became harder than Orichalcum, as I used it to rush down into the Leviathan and roll as if I were an armadillo, crushing her down.
CRAAAASSSSHHHH!!!
"SHAAAAA!"
The Leviathan roared in agony as her own blood suddenly turned into some strange net, wrapping around my body, and then, the damn snake swung me down and evaded the hit!
BAAAAAMMMM…!
TRUUUM!
The ice landscape I had just created suddenly shattered into pieces, as she threw me down into the open sea. I quickly found myself within her territory. But perhaps fighting her here might show her that I am stronger than she thinks.
"GROOOARRRR!"
Her roar was heard underwater, as I saw her wounds slowly beginning to heal in the water. Indeed, she had the [Ocean Healing] Ability, which allowed her to heal wounds incredibly quickly as long as she's in the sea! I have to drag her down if I don't want her to heal back to everything once more!
TRUUUUMM…!
Suddenly, the sea waved around, hundreds of currents reached my entire body, like vicious snakes made of water, they quickly started to crush my entire body. My bones shattered, my muscles were torn apart, my scales broke, my skin began to be peeled off.
"NNNGGGHHH…! Y-YOOUUU!"
"SHAAAAH!"
The Leviathan roared furiously, as she opened her jaws and directed them towards my face. She really wants to bite my face off doesn't she?!
I can't really die here anyways, that's not how I go.
I have to use more and higher leveled Spells…
From what I have learned from the Primordial Ice Grimoire from the Goddess Skadi, I have to use this knowledge as much as I can!
I'll use the strongest spell I've got, fuck it!
"Divine Primordial Ice Magic: [Space Freeze, Total Vacuum]…!"
TRUUUUMMM….!
Suddenly, the Leviathan stopped her charge, as I felt all my Mana and Divine Power being drained each passing second. The entire surroundings within my body suddenly became… completely frozen. This was the forbidden magic Skadi could use, Space Freeze and Total Vacuum.
Together, it is possible to freeze space itself for a few seconds!
However, it is extremely risky as it puts a heavy burden into my entire body, a normal ice god would be utterly torn to shreds after conjuring it, but because of my Immortal Body Unique Skill, I can withstand the pressure and the enormous backlash and free myself!
I quickly flew outside of the sea, as I saw the space within one kilometer around my body being completely frozen, as if everything had stopped. Isn't this more like time freeze than space freeze? Well, whatever.
FLAAASH!
Space was quickly unfrozen as I freed everyone from this restrain. Leviathan ended biting nothing as she saw me disappear. I could had attacked her back then, but I would had wasted time I would had rather used escaping her water prison.
"GROOOARRR!"
Leviathan roared back at me furiously, as she swam upwards and then jumped off the sea, opening her jaws and then gathering divine power in her jaws, opening them, and unleashing a deadly breath attack, impacting me.
"Soul Forging Arts: [Divine Soul Shell]!"
I combined the power of my Orichalcum scales with Divine Soul Shell, enhancing my defenses and tanking her powerful breath attack, at the same time as I modified the scales of my arms and grew them into enormous natural shields, using them to charge straight at her while Uller and Skadi began piercing and slashing her body.
CLASH! SLASH! BAAAM!
She roared angrily at them, using her enormous body to slam at them and throw them away. Divine weapons of their strength were still not completely capable of killing someone so strong as her, I suppose. But I can!
"Divine Shield Arts: [Aegis Parry]!"
CRAAAASH!
I parried her body slam as I threw her into the skies once more. She reacted by firing scale projectiles like before, but I intercepted them with wind and ice magic, the old classic.
"Divine Wind And Ice Magic: [Winter's Judgement]!"
