Renji wanted to adapt more to the fiery dragon wings on his back, but the filthy crawling creature, Bal's incarnation, didn't give him that chance.
The creature roared and charged toward Renji, its gigantic body causing the ground to tremble with each thud. Everything in its path was rcilessly crushed, raising clouds of dust and debris.
The ancient Wolf Clan's subordinates, who had initially tried to assist their High Priest, now scattered in terror upon seeing him transford into a monstrous Miasma entity.
"Ashen."
"Ashen. Ashennnnnnnnnnnnnn."
The roars of the huge crawling creature, now a re carrier of black mire, might be unintelligible to others, but Renji clearly understood. The monster was calling his na.
Even though its rationality had been devoured by Tainted Miasma, it was still acting on Bal's last obsession, or perhaps instinct – it was "rushing" toward Renji.
In the creature's vision, as the young man got closer and closer, it eagerly swung its several-ter-long arms. Its hands, composed entirely of filthy black mire, stirred up a great wave of wind as they reached for Renji.
Renji looked on calmly, the massive shadow of the crawling creature's hand looming over him. After taking a deep breath, the flas on the Crimson Lotus wings on his back suddenly brightened. With just a light flap of the wings, he left behind only a fiery afterimage. When the crawling creature's hand ca swooping down, all that was left was a swirl of hot air.
As for Renji himself, he was already hovering high in the sky, looking down. His dragon wings fully extended, painting the sky behind him a deep red.
Bal: *Roar!*
Failing to grasp Renji, the crawling creature was clearly not content. Its roars and howls, fueled by jealousy, ca from the sight of Renji's wings. Although it had lost its human form, the creature still conveyed feelings of envy.
He despised those Crimson Lotus wings on Renji's back.
he envied and loathed the wings that could rge with Renji
he wanted to drag Renji down from the sky! he wanted to tear apart those dragon wings – 'he' should be the one to rge with his master!!
After his furious roar, the black mire on the surface of the giant crawling creature began to wriggle intensely. Soon, one after another, new hands sprouted from its back, all targeting Renji in the sky and shooting towards him at great speed, like a dark net.
Despite the crawling creature's complete deformation, Renji didn't retreat. High above, he flapped the Crimson Lotus wings more vigorously, creating gusts of wind that rapidly shifted his position in the air. He beca a series of elusive afterimages, nimbly dodging the black mire hands that lunged at him from all directions.
Unfortunately, perhaps because he was not yet fully accustod to his new form, or perhaps due to the decreasing distance and increasing number of hands, Renji's space to dodge was constantly squeezed. Eventually, he was caught by one of the creature's hands.
Seeing it had "captured" Renji, the crawling creature let out an excited and exuberant roar, rapidly covering him with all of its remaining hands, as if to ensure he was trapped and couldn't escape.
However.
"Ahhhhhhhh"
A pained wail suddenly ca from the creature's body, as a dazzling red light burst from the bottom layer of the piled hands.
The crimson light cut through the layers of black mire hands. Under its glow, all the hands quickly caught fire, and the intense flas swiftly reduced these hands to ashes. Within the innermost layer, Renji erged unscathed, shielded by his wings folded protectively around him.
The Wings of Crimson Lotus granted Renji unparalleled speed, and with a terrifying wingspan of nearly ten ters, they could envelop him entirely when folded inward, forming a fiery barrier.
And if he were to suddenly unfold and flap these closed wings,
*Buzz!*
The wings would stir up a fierce wind, with fire covering them, instantly forming scorching wind blades that struck the crawling creature's arms. The black mire hands, composed of silt and filth, were sliced and severed like tofu under the force of the wind.
However, the formidable aspect of this black mire was its ability to continue wriggling even after being severed from the crawling creature's body, falling to the ground and then transforming into smaller mire monsters. They attacked Renji in a way reminiscent of an army springing from scattered beans.
But unfortunately, no matter how nurous these smaller mire monsters were, they were futile against absolute power.
Renji estimated the distance between himself and the crawling creature.
'This should be enough'
'It's ti to end this'
After murmuring to himself, Renji didn't even glance at the mire dark hands swarming from all directions to surround him. Instead, he took a half step back and assud a sprinting posture. The next mont, the Wings of Crimson Lotus on his back blazed brightly, with flas reaching their zenith.
The high-frequency trembling of his wings pushed Renji's speed to the limit. He transford into a teor of fire shooting into the sky. Wherever the teor passed, under the shadow of his wings, all mire monsters on the ground below spontaneously combusted, turning to ashes in the flas. His ultimate target was the heart of the giant crawling creature, where Bal originally was.
The crawling creature tried to stop him, extending countless fingers in an attempt to intercept the approaching teor, but it was all in vain. The teor pierced straight through the heart of the crawling creature, and Renji's wings, like a sharp blade, cleaved the giant body of the creature in half.
After landing back on the ground and stabilizing himself, Renji now held a person in his hand, Bal, whom he had pulled out from the inside of the crawling creature.
The giant crawling creature, having lost Bal as its core vessel, could no longer sustain itself. Its massive body, several tens of ters tall, quickly collapsed into black mist, evaporating rapidly until it completely dissipated.
