Chapter 1982 Walking Into The Middle Of A Spirit Dao Vortex
-----
FLUOOOOOSH!
The moment they pierced through the thick layer of white clouds, the entire group was greeted by a huge blizzard! Icy winds constantly coming from a faraway Island, covering the entire cloud with snow.
To make things worse, the cloud layer was filled with lightning constantly buzzing and zapping through, the lightning strikes immediately targeting Truhan and his gigantic body.
"Lightning was to be expected I guess, but what with the blizzard?!" Celica quickly transformed into her giantess form, helping Truhan tank the lightning strikes.
"Look, over there!" Meiji's eyes opened wide, as everyone saw an incredible naturel phenomena that happened in the Spiritual Plane.
It was a swirling tornado made out of ethereal, spiritual energies and the essence of the Dao of Spirits! It was the Spirit Dao Vortex that Amethyst had told them about.
The vortex spread through most of the cloud layer, and it seemed to be sucking the entire layer into its spiraling body, constantly sending out elemental explosions and rainbow-colored lightning that dealt quite a bit of damage.
"A Spirit Dao Vortex?!" Palami cried.
"So is that thing that brought us here to begin with?!" Raito wondered. "Wait, can't we use it to go back to Genesis?"
"No, it is too dangerous! It cannot bring us back; it simply sucks stuff from whatever place." Asure said, stopping Raito from doing something dumb.
FLUOOOOSH!
The Spirit Dao Vortex, however, was also absorbing and sending back an enormous Divine Aura of Frost coming past the Cloud Layer everyone was desperately trying to cross.
"Although it's cold as heck, we have to follow the blizzard's path, before we get swallowed by the Vortex!" Kizuato said.
"Alright, don't you dare move from my hands!" Truhan said, wrapping his friends with a materialization of his Divinity, and holding Celica's hand as the two titans used their enormous weight and strength to push themselves away from the Vortex's gigantic force.
TRUUUUUMMM…!
However, as if the Vortex was alive, it suddenly started glowing with bright, rainbow light, its spiraling force growing larger and larger!
"It's getting even stronger?! What the hell's going on?!" Goruden panicked.
"Urgh, the lightning's already a big issue and I'm doing my best to send it away!" Raito was using his Lightning Divinity to reflect the lightning coming to them.
"Look, there's something over there…" Jinsoku muttered. "Amidst the lightnings, look at those silhouettes!"
Within the chaos of the vortex and the skies twisting, as everyone was covered on snow, rain, and lightning, they saw an incredible, awe-inspiring sight!
"GRUOOOOHHHH…"
A gigantic Spirit Beast resembling a massive, titanic whale was floating in front of the Spirit Dao Vortex, so huge that it could easily fit the whole realm of Genesis inside of its mouth!
"W-What is that thing?!" Meiji cried in horror.
"A-A Spirit Beast?! So huge though?! It's larger than most Realms!" Celica panicked.
However, it wasn't attacking them, but gently feeding on the Vortex's energy, slowly, as if it was drinking from its essence to feed its enormous body.
Perhaps because it was feeding off the Vortex, the spiraling tornado of energy was being distorted, and its intensity was increasing, although it might die off soon as the whale feed more on it.
Everyone felt surprised, thinking that even such things could be used as food for greater beings… When they thought they had seen almost everything, the universe once more shakes their very perception of reality.
"C-Calm down, I think it's harmless, it is not even looking at us." Said Palami. "Just keep moving! Don't worry about it!"
"It's just feeding…" Meiji sighed. "Wow, and I thought we've seen all the fantastical things, yet there was such a huge beast out there…"
The crystalline, rainbow-colored Spirit Beast Whale did not even notice them. But there were other spectators that did, huge shark-shaped Spirit Beast started swimming closer to them, their red eyes noticing their presences.
"Yeah, that one is sure harmless, but what about those guys getting closer?!" Goruden pointed at the distance.
"Sharks?! They're Spirit Beast Sharks! And they're not small at all…" Kizuato muttered.
Soon enough, as they were flying across the Cloud Layer right in the middle of being sucked by a Spirit Dao Vortex, everyone noticed the beasts approaching. As large as thirty meters each, a dozen of them appeared around the two titans.
They quickly opened their sharp jaws, their bodies erupting with spiritual energy as they launched themselves like torpedoes towards them, attempting to take a few bites off their flesh!
"You damn piranhas!" Roared Truhan, his body overflowing with flames as he kicked three Sharks strongly, their bodies quickly shattering into pieces!
CRAAAAASSSH!
"You're a bit too small to try taking a bite off us." Celica smiled, swinging her free arm as she crushed one of the shark's heads, and then another, and a third!
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
The rest of the Spirit Beast Sharks didn't falter though, quickly continuing to fly towards them, attracted by their large quantity of spiritual and divine energies.
Celica and Truhan alone would be usually enough to deal with them, but because they were trying to run away from the Vortex, flying in the cloud layer, and resisting the blizzard, it was a bit harder…
So everyone else decided to fight, even if their bodies were stuck with Truhan's hand, they loaded their strongest techniques!
"Take this! [Golden Divine Spear's Thousand Trusts]!"
"And this! [Blazing Lightning Dragon Blade]!"
"RAAAAH! [Heaven Piercing Stone Axe]!"
"You're not messing around with us! [Abyssal Shadow Blade Rain]!"
Goruden, Kizuato, Yukan, and Jinsoku imbued their Divine Weapons with their energies, unleashing a barrage of powerful attacks!
Goruden's unleashed a thousand trusts with his Golden Spear at the same time, Kizuato a single slash with his swords that unleashed a dragon made of fire and lightning, Yukan a deadly swing of his giant two axes, piercing the heavens, and lastly, Jinsoku a rain of thousands of knives made out of his own Shadow Divinity.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRAAASH!
The bombardment of powerful techniques overwhelmed the sharks, pushing most of them away, just in time for the titans to reach through the other end of the dangerous Cloud Layer!
FLAAASH!
And what greeted their sight was… a battle amidst the skies!
