Chapter 223 - Duel in the Rift

Dominic's steps were steady, his eyes sharp, as if each step landed on air. Lasers and heat rays filled the sky, weaving into a chaotic blaze of light, accompanied by waves of high-temperature air, clearing an open space with almost every step.

Laser beams shot from his eyes, piercing steel and concrete, the roar echoing above the ruins. The surrounding buildings, machinery, and figures instantly turned to ash under this light. His steps did not stop, and an irresistible pressure seemed to fill the air, gradually approaching Apocalypse, who sat on his throne.

Apocalypse's eyes flickered slightly, an undisguised interest spreading across his face. He sat calmly, hands clasped, seemingly having seen through everything long ago.

The air around him twisted, energy fluctuations constantly swirling.

His voice was steady but carried an undeniable threat: "Dominic, it is indeed you. I can feel Lord Rama-Tut's aura has disappeared. Your ability seems stronger than I imagined."

Dominic looked up, staring coldly at Apocalypse, his face showing no emotion: "You do not respect your Lord. You have never truly served him. Your so-called submission was merely for your own power."

Apocalypse's face suddenly twisted, his eyes bursting with cold killing intent: "You are right. That guy, Rama-Tut, invaded my World and used his technology to lock away my power." He sneered, his voice low: "But the more he did, the more it angered me. Locked away my power? And what was the result? He couldn't stop me; he only made me more resilient. When my power combined with his technology, I realized it only made me stronger."

Apocalypse's body trembled slightly, the energy within him surging rapidly, and a strong electrical aura permeated the air. His hands moved swiftly, the surrounding space cracking open, revealing dazzling light. Various energy elements gathered around his body, like a God descending. Elements, power, attack, defense, various superpowers rapidly condensed, forming an invisible barrier. A smug smile appeared on Apocalypse's face: "Dominic, thank you for bringing me this power. Now, you have two paths to choose from. You can submit to me, become my right hand, and enjoy supreme glory; or—" He paused, his tone changing, the atmosphere suddenly becoming oppressive, "—you will die here."

Apocalypse's voice suddenly exploded, the surrounding energy surging out, and the entire room instantly became suffocatingly oppressive. Countless flames, lightning, frost, and even space itself, spread wantonly under his control. That unstoppable energy instantly pressed towards Dominic, the temperature in the air rising sharply.

Dominic didn't hesitate, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

He stood still, seemingly unaffected by the threat.

With a cold laugh: "Bring it on. I'm waiting for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Apocalypse struck fiercely, lightning tearing through the air, striking Dominic like a bolt. As his hands waved, the surrounding air instantly solidified, powerful currents flowed freely in the space, violent energy fluctuations tore the air, and with a destructive momentum, they crushed towards Dominic.

Dominic remained calm, a strong determination surging in his eyes. His body flickered, and he immediately disappeared from his spot, turning into a black lightning bolt. The lightning struck where no one was, and a huge crack was torn in space again, flames and currents intertwining into nothingness. Just as Apocalypse was stunned, Dominic's figure had already appeared behind him.

"Interesting move."

Dominic's voice carried a hint of provocation as he slammed his palm against Apocalypse's back. The strong energy fluctuations collided with Apocalypse's shield, erupting in a piercing roar, sparks flying.

Apocalypse instantly felt a huge force pressing down, his body trembled slightly, and the shield began to vibrate violently.

Apocalypse turned sharply, his face gloomy: "You truly impress me. But unfortunately—"

Before he finished speaking, he waved his hands, and the surrounding space suddenly twisted, energy surging like a flood, instantly dissolving Dominic's attack. Then, Apocalypse stomped his foot, the ground shaking violently, and his figure disappeared into the air again, turning into a blue light and shadow appearing to Dominic's left.

"The show has just begun," Apocalypse sneered, raising his right hand, and the surrounding elements began to gather frantically. Flames, lightning, frost, storms, various elements intertwined into a powerful attack, rushing towards Dominic.

Dominic stared coldly, his gaze as sharp as a blade. He attacked again without hesitation, his fists condensing powerful energy, slamming towards Apocalypse. Two terrifying forces collided in the air, the roar shaking the heavens and the earth, and the entire space trembled violently under this force.

"Is this your greatest power?" Dominic's voice was low, with a hint of disdain, "You've only learned how to control these elements, but true power has just begun."

Immediately, his eyes became sharp, the energy within him erupted rapidly, the surrounding space began to twist, and countless tiny cracks seemed to spread continuously in the air. Apocalypse's face suddenly changed color, as if he felt some impending devastating blow.

"I underestimated you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire space suddenly became unusually oppressive. Apocalypse's hands suddenly spread open, the surrounding air began to vibrate, strong winds whipped up, energy rolled like a tsunami, spreading in all directions. Black lightning intertwined into a net in the air, and a scorching red light emanated from Apocalypse's eyes, as if to burn everything to ash.

"You should be glad I treat your challenge with respect." Before he finished speaking, a tearing shriek suddenly erupted in the air—Apocalypse's power suddenly condensed into a huge energy fluctuation, rushing towards Dominic with countless currents, beams, and flames.

A cold smile flashed in Dominic's eyes. He quickly lowered his head, crossed his hands, and rapidly constructed a transparent energy shield, instantly protecting himself from the energy storm surging from all directions. The Impact of currents and flames surged like a tide towards the shield, emitting an earth-shattering roar upon violent collision, shaking the air itself.

"You think this can stop me?" Apocalypse's voice held a hint of mockery. He waved his hands, and a violent storm tore the air. Immediately after, countless energy beams, like lasers, penetrated everything, aiming directly at Dominic's chest.

"Too slow," Dominic sneered. He suddenly leaped up, his body shooting towards one side like a cannonball. Almost simultaneously, a precise laser beam erupted from his eyes, cutting through the energy beams in the air and heading straight for Apocalypse's face.

Apocalypse moved slightly, his body instantly becoming ethereal. His figure twisted rapidly in the air, and a flash of light accompanied by an explosive sonic boom dispersed the laser beam. Apocalypse instantly appeared behind Dominic, his energy sword flashing with deadly cold light, slashing towards Dominic's neck.

"Trying to kill me?" Dominic turned, intense coldness erupting in his eyes. His hands instantly grabbed the energy sword Apocalypse swung, and with a powerful twist, the energy sword instantly shattered into powder, turning into nothingness. At the same time, his right leg kicked straight towards Apocalypse's chest like a sharp blade, carrying an overwhelming gale.

A hint of surprise flashed in Apocalypse's eyes, but he didn't panic. His body flickered, and he actually disappeared into thin air, rapidly shifting to another location, avoiding the heavy kick.

"You are indeed not simple," Apocalypse said calmly. The surrounding air suddenly twisted, and he clapped his hands. A strong energy fluctuation spread out, instantly forming a huge storm, sweeping everything around him and blasting towards Dominic.

"This attack is useless against me." Dominic's eyes flashed with cold light. He quickly pressed his hands to the ground, and energy fluctuations instantly surged from his palms, turning into a huge energy shield that forcefully blocked Apocalypse's violent onslaught. The energy shield glowed with dazzling light, and each contact seemed to tear the entire space apart.

Apocalypse's gaze became even colder. He suddenly raised his hand, and a huge pillar of fire descended from the sky. Flames soared, heat waves rushed towards him, burning everything with their scorching aura, and the air instantly became thick. Dominic was affected by the violent flames, his figure flickering, almost swallowed by the scorching airflow.

"I thought you'd be stronger," Apocalypse sneered, a cold light flashing in his eyes. He continued to wave the energy in his hands, and fierce flames swept towards Dominic's body like a giant dragon.

However, a look of determination flashed in Dominic's eyes. He raised his hand to meet the flames, and a strong energy fluctuation instantly erupted. His body emitted a dazzling light, and a metallic light shield formed, forcefully blocking Apocalypse's attack. The metal shield and flames collided violently, an earth-shattering roar erupting in the air, sparks flying, and the shockwave tearing the surrounding space apart.

"Enough!" Dominic roared. He leaped violently, pushing off with his legs, shooting straight towards Apocalypse like an arrow from a bowstring. Apocalypse quickly spread his wings, and with a thunderous sound, suddenly swooped down, his body turning into a black lightning bolt, colliding head-on with Dominic.

The two instantly intertwined in an astonishing explosion, sparks and currents weaving in the air, energy surging, the air itself seeming to tremble. Dominic did not flinch, the energy fluctuations in his hands becoming even more intense, quickly dissolving Apocalypse's offensive. Every punch carried the power to shake the heavens and the earth, every move was full of explosiveness.

"With just you, you want to defeat me?" Dominic said coldly, his voice filled with an undeniable pressure. He pushed violently, and Apocalypse's figure was instantly knocked away, the entire space trembling almost to the point of collapse, dust flying, and energy explosions echoing one after another.

Apocalypse was repelled, his eyes flashing with anger, but he didn't counterattack immediately. Instead, he took a deep breath, seemingly adjusting his state. His aura gradually calmed down, and a cold smile curled on Apocalypse's lips: "Good, you are indeed not simple. Did you really think you could defeat me so easily?"

"You are not worthy," Dominic stared at him, his eyes revealing firm determination and cold killing intent.

The battle was still not over. Every collision between the two sides was like an earthquake. It was impossible to predict who would win this fierce battle.
