Rick was dead
with a wave of hand, the monster had snapped ricks neck like a twig and then it spoke
Cassius stood, a calm expression on his face unbothered by the death of the man in front of him, he turned to face the monster who was staring at him and said, "why are you spying on me?"
An overwhelming ominous aura began to rise from the monster as its cultivation level began to surge rapidly rising from the peak of the third stage of the source rank all the way to the peak of the tenth stage of the source rank just one step from entering the arcane realm.
The monster cracked its knuckles a smile appearing on its face and with a single step, vanished.
Cassius watch the monster presence fade as it disappeared from his sight, but he still had a calm expression on his face battle ready and prepared for what was coming or so he thought.
A giant black colored fist struck through his defenses, hitting Cassius in the stomach, the blow was packed with so much power, explosive air shot from his back before Cassius flew tumbling and crashing through countless trees leaving destruction in his wake.
Drip
drip
the monster looked at his hand that was dripping blood and thought 'he really is a monster through and through' in that brief moment before the blow sent Cassius flying, Cassius had reacted and counter attacked using his knee to strike the wrist of the monster.
Cassius stood up, his face and arms bloodied by the open injuries on his body, with a smile on his face Cassius wiped blood from his eyes and then the open injuries slowly began to close, flesh began to knit itself together until there was no sign of injuries.
Cassius spat out the blood in his mouth before he spoke "I don't know what you are and I don't know if you can understand this, but I want you to know when I bring you down to the ground, my hand grabbing your heart as it beats in your chest that moment just before regret starts to set in,
that moment where you are looking to the stars for answer, know this you brought this on yourself when you decided to come for me"
{Primal titan transformation}
it was like the detonation of a powerful bomb as an overwhelming tyrannical aura began to emanate from Cassius sending everything in his path flying, the ground cracked beneath his feat as if it could no longer bear the weight of Cassius new form, every path of his body was filled with power his white hair grew and didn't stop until its length reached his waist.
Roar!!!
Power flowed through every part of Cassius body and with a loud roar the world knew it too. Everything grew quiet after that loud roar because they could feel it, something that could bring the world to a halt, that sent predators cowering like prey, they were in the presence of a Titan and the world bowed accordingly.
BANG!
Cassius stomped the ground kicking up dust and then he vanished, moving at a speed that his opponent couldn't react even as Cassius appeared right in front of the monster, hands outstretched he grabbed the monster by the face and slammed him headfirst into the ground.
As soon as the monster hit the ground Cassius assault didn't relent, he jumped on top of him and began to rain down blows upon blows to the extent that in a few seconds what began as a monster skull dent in the ground turned into a large crater.
'He is fast, in that instant I lost sight of him and the presence he is radiating why does it make me want to submit?' that was the thought on the monster's mind has Cassius rained down blows on him and then a wide grin formed on his face it 'it's not going to end that easy'
BOOM BOOM
suddenly the monster's aura began to increase, a grin on its face as its fighting spirit was at a high, it opened its large palms and grabbed Cassius powerful punches as soon as it collided with its hands.
And then it began to rise until it was towering above Cassius and then with a swift kick delivered to Cassius midsection that sent him Crashing through a large tree leaving a Cassius large hole in his wake.
Cassius skidded to a stop before rushing back at the monster aiming a punch straight at its face which it deflected with such accuracy and speed that before Cassius could react another punch was digging into his back slamming him into the ground once more.
The monster raised its hand and delivered another punch this time aiming for Cassius spine intending to incapacitate him permanently but with quick movement Cassius dodged out of the way causing the hand of the monster to slam into the ground.
BOOM
All it took was a second for it to remove its hands from the ground but that was a second too long as Cassius delivered a solid knee straight to its jaw and followed by a punch that ripped open a chunk of its face causing blood to spurt out of in large amount.
A wound like that would have put an ordinary warrior or monster out of commission but this was no ordinary monster the wound soon regenerated, and it was back on its feet charging towards Cassius
they collided
BOOM!!
BOOM!!
they exchanged blows with surprising speed destroying everything in their path, Cassius grabbed its head and delivered it straight to his rising knee and then bringing both hands together slammed it into its back sending it straight to the ground.
Cassius raised his legs intending to smash its skull when something wrapped around its waist with such force and then lifted him off the ground before slamming Cassius into the ground harder before he could even determine what had a hold of him, he was lifted off the ground and sent flying destroying another tree once again.
'A tail, that's cheating' Cassius thought in fury as he had just walked out of another tree, aloud Cassius said "it's time to end th-
Cassius never got to finish that sentence as he felt a chill on his spine, and he turned towards his opponent that's when he saw it lighting up the sky in a crimson color
the monster stood tall a crimson orb between its horns radiating an aura of pure destruction and a large amount of intense heat, then with an action that surprised Cassius it spoke {unleash}
it sent a pure beam of destruction that consumed everything in its path, and it was heading for Cassius
