Speed Is King

Although the physical movement was simple, the energy movement was more complex than a nightmare, and more powerful than anything ever produced by a King in the history of the known universe.

As an Ancestral Grade item, it was imbued with a powerful skill which would grant the wearer access to the Spell Framework of an Emperor level skill. The energy powering that framework would be the wearer’s energy, of course, and thus the power that the skill could manifest would depend also on the wearer.

A King level warrior would be able to unleash one of the most powerful King level spells in existence, while an Emperor level warrior would merely unleash a slightly more powerful than usual Emperor level spell.

With Wu Kong’s Darklight Energy, he transformed the slightly stronger than usual Emperor level spell into a monstrosity that would strike fear even in Hegemons.

The silhouette of an utterly humongous Taoist Yin-Yang circle appeared behind Wu Kong and released a horrifying torrent of stinging energy that surged into Wu Kong’s body!

Within his body, the energy continued in its preset runic pathway and transformed into incomparably dense rods with white lightning arc-ing everywhere around it that gained unimaginable speeds.

Over a thousand rods exploded out of Wu Kong’s rod just as his thrust reached its maximum reach.

KA-BOOM!!!

The rods were accelerating at such a ridiculous rate with absolutely no speed limit whatsoever that they nearly reached the speed of light when they impacted their targets. (A/N: Reminder for all of our scientific readers – This is fiction lol)

All four Emperors were shredded into nothing more than memories.

Wu Kong’s attack truly defied the heavens and allowed a mere King level Beast Apostle to kill four Emperors in their powerful dark transformations!

Wu Kong’s remnant attack impacted a distant mountain and pulverized it completely.

BOOOM!

Elliot was very, very satisfied with the level of power which Wu Kong was showing.

However, before he could congratulate him for a job well done, he suddey sensed that there was still a faint trace of life near where the Emperors were standing.

Specifically, near where the Empress was.

Wu Kong had no need to be told about it. His Feral Judgement had given him powerful senses and he too had immediately caught that trace of life.

The Empress was strangely still alive. Barely, but definitely still alive.

However, the attack he had unleashed earlier was not without its toll. His body was completely devoid of energy, and he could barely keep himself on his feet, much less hunt down a hidden Empress.

He swayed slightly.

“He has overdrawn his energy.” Elliot realized.

Elliot blinked to Wu Kong and gently touched his powerful arm which was trembling violently.

He gave Wu Kong a beast restore potion to drink, and dismissed him so that he could recover.

“Well done. Your task is complete, I will take it from here on.” He told Wu Kong as he disappeared.

“All of you, make sure the other four Emperors don’t escape.” Elliot immediately ordered his beasts.

Immediately, Brock, Winter, Ellie, Rex, Aldera, Red and the Armored Kaijins sprang into action and shot towards the four Emperors who had turned extremely pale at the sight of Wu Kong’s incredible attack.

Sensing that their enemies had lost all of their will to fight and would very, very soon turn tail and run, Elliot’s beasts held nothing back and unleashed their full powers to take their enemies down at the fastest speed possible.

It was complete overkill.

Frosty’s Darklight enhancement had qualitatively changed her Frost Domain skill. From merely an aura that slowed her enemies down and reduced their attack speed, it had transformed into a freezing field that completely immobilized them.

The four Emperors had no answer to Frosty’s freezing field which was made completely unblockable by her out-of-this-universe Darklight Energy.

It turned out that Frosty was completely toying with her prey!

With all four Emperors immobilized, all of Elliot’s beasts’ ultimate attacks landed on them without issues.

Rom’s signature Fire Blast had turned a creepy half black and half white. Although it no longer looked anything like fire, the heat that it produced left no one doubting of its fiery properties. In fact, it was actually much, much too strong to be mere fire. It was like Rom had fired of a miniature star!

Winter’s ultimate attack was also so powerful that Brock finally (and very grudgingly) realized that she truly had the might and thus the right to say all those things she had said before. Compared to her, he truly was like a mere punching bag!

Winter’s ultimate attack turned her into an Ice Queen Wolf that was beyond deadly. The Emperor she attacked had instantly froze and then shattered into a billion ice dust!

Frosty even raised an draconic eyebrow at the sight of such a powerful ice attack.

A truly intriguing question was born at that moment. Whose ice attack was stronger? Frosty? Or Winter?

However, that question must remain unanswered for now.

The final Emperor was taken care of by Rex. She had burst into action the moment Elliot had said “All of you…” and was actually the first to reach the four immobilized Emperors. But because she was slightly weaker than Rom, Winter and Red, she was the last to complete her task.

Still, the Emperor that she had attacked was nothing more than a headless corpse by the time she was done.

And just like the three Emperors that fell to Wu Kong, the four Emperors were all shredded into memories.

7 Emperors dead, and 1 more probably half dead, crawling away in tears.

And one very, very, very, displeased bear.

“What? I got nothing! Again!” Ellie shouted crossly. “Look, gramps! They all killed the enemies before I could reach them! This is not fair! I need my share of enemies too, you know! As a tamed beast of the honorable Master Elliot, I have rights! I have rights! I demand that enemies be left for me to kill!”

Ellie shouted indignantly in the public mindspace, much to the amusement of all the other beasts.
