Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix

Rain reacted quickly. He used his hands to hit each one of the earth spears. Instead of piercing him, the spears turned into a cloud of fine, sparkling dust, like tiny shining particles, before disappearing. It was a bizarre moment, and everyone was left in shock.

No one could explain what had happened. It seemed like Rain had used magic, even though the barrier should have blocked all magic. This unexpected event left everyone puzzled and amazed since no one saw his arms moving at all…

The giant golem kept firing the earth spears at Rain, and they began to disintegrate as they approached him… while everyone was in shock as they saw Rain with his arms crossed, stopping the giant golem without moving a single muscle. The warriors of the raging phoenix had plenty of time to reach them.

After using Limit Breaker, the warriors charged and slammed their shields agaisnt the enemies and began to knock them down like bowling pins… it was the first time that they used the technique against enemies. Still, the feeling of power didn't take over their heads, and they just kept advancing slowly but steadily.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I trained them well, and I didn't even have to use evolution stones to make them this strong," Rain thought.

The Raging Phoenix had already passed the giant golem, and the creature couldn't turn around and face them while leaving Rain alone, so it decided to attack Rain in order to end their high morale… that was a smart move. Too bad that the magic people didn't think that the monster was too slow for that.

The creature approached and tried to stomp Rain. At the same time, an earth spike emerged from the ground to impale him. In the end, Rain blocked the attack coming from below with one of his shin guards while the massive leg of the monster was unable to approach him… it was like an invisible barrier was keeping the enemy at bay… at least that was what the enemies were seeing.

Rain was just punching the leg of the monster extremely fast at the right moment with enough force to stop it.

"... I guess I tried too hard to show off," Rain thought as he felt his right shoulder throbbing.

The technique that Rain was using was something that he came up with recently… he recalled it as Sonic Punch. It used Limit Breaker to its limits, but he only unleashed those in a single moment to attack as fast as possible… so ordinary people couldn't see him doing anything.

In any case, the time of waiting was over… Rain could tell that most of the inhabitants of that part of the city had left, so Rain didn't have to hold back anymore… Besides, he could see a group of people coming from the council hall, and it would be nice to greet them properly.

When the giant golem jumped and tried to stomp Rain with all of its weight… Rain clenched his teeth and then assumed his stance… after he moved his fist to the side, he immediately punched the giant beast with a powerful upper. The attack not only stopped the giant monster but it also pushed the creature upward for several seconds.

When the monster began to fall again, Rain was already in the air, and the fall only made the entire city tremble. In the next moment, Rain began to punch violently the face of the giant monster, and only a few hits had been enough to completely crack it.

Before Rain could fall, he launched a straight right in the middle of the face of the creature and made the head fly to the distance… in the next moment, it fell right in the middle where the council members were… some managed to avoid the attack, the slower ones were completely smashed to death.

…

When Rain landed, he saw the giant monster stopping moving for a second, but soon the beast tried to kick him. He quickly jumped to the side and avoided the hit, but the blast left a path of destruction in the direction of the attack… a good part of the staircase was destroyed thanks to it.

"This is a lot of power… I really can't let this thing attack my underlings," Rain thought.

In the next moment, the giant golem actually assumed a fighting stance similar to Rain, with its arms raised, ready to block or attack… which made him frown. The surprise didn't end there… in the next moment, the beast punched the air, and then a blast of wind was fired toward Rain.

Rain blocked the attack with his forearm guards, but he was still pushed away from several Meters… the ground around him was completely cracked. The monster was even stronger than the beast king, even though that attack didn't burn him or anything like that.

"... It is time to take things seriously…" Rain thought while seeing his skin bleeding in several parts. "I want to buy time for the others, but I can't let these assholes do what they want."

When the giant monster attacked again, Rain charged forward with all his might and then punched the right knee of the beast. The creature trembled since that was its pivot leg, and things didn't end there. Rain quickly appeared behind the monster and attacked the back of its right knee as well, making the beast lose its balance for a moment…

In the next moment, Rain jumped and then landed on the neck of the beast. When the giant golem recovered, it soon began to tremble again as Rain began to violently punch the same spot… even if it was an inorganic creature, the neck was still a spot that affected its whole body… and the impacts there made cracks appear around the whole body.
