As soon as Kartikeya jumped forward he waved his spear and created energy ripples to avoid the energy waves that are coming from the smaller orb containing all of Sam's elemental energies. But when he was halfway through the stage, he felt a huge energy explosion and was thrown away.

In mid-air, he stabbed the spearhead straight into the floor and a burst of energy ripples negated the force that was pushing.

When he looked up he noticed that the explosion came from the small orb. It is now growing big, but as it grew the elemental energies are forcefully fusing together and it is causing the energy ripples.

Kartikeya looked at it with his eyes wide open. For the first time, he sensed some threat from Sam.

The threat is bigger than Sam's self-destruction. He has a feeling that is Sam really exploded all these energies together, there is a good chance he would be crippled for the remaining battle. But there is a small problem with this and Sam wouldn't be able to escape the explosion himself. Even his shield wouldn't be able to save him and it would be more like a suicidal attack.

That is why he was sure that Sam wouldn't explode it.

As Kartikeya tried to move forward, he couldn't help but shake his head. The resistance is too much. As he faced Sam's monstrosity of these attacks he more and more thought that he should just use his big attacks.

It would be futile wanting to hold back.

As he thought so, he finally got used to the resistance and was able to walk faster and moved towards Sam. But he is still playing the flute without bothering with anything and his health bars are depleting, but now there are only eighteen of them left.

He is expending a lot of energy.

But once again, there is a drastic drop of another health bar and along with it, the elemental energies that are concentrated in the orb all collided once again before an explosion occurred and the energies spread all over the stage.

Kartikeya didn't fly back this time as he was prepared.

He was shocked by the sight that was in front of him.

There are black clouds above and the floor has started heating up at a rapid pace and started melting, but there is a patch of darkness in the middle of the floor from which five Naga shadows came out.

After the shadows arrived, the patch disappeared and that part of the floor also started melting slowly. It didn't become liquid though, it just became soft.

Silver lightning crackled from the clouds and soon it started raining.

Kartikeya was lost in disbelief and awe for a second.

In front of him was a domain where the land is full of golden flames and clouds are raining and thundering at the same time.

He is surprised, but not because he has seen this for the first time. He has seen far too much and far too greater things in fact, but he was surprised because of Sam's seamless harmony in using all his elements.

As he was thinking, he observed the remaining details, the wind is guiding the raindrops and the tongues of flames from the ground.

When he breathed he could feel the air being heavy and all eight types of hydra poisons are in there making him feel some sort of itchy feeling in his internal organs. Now even the energy locks that are trying their best to stop the spread of the poison became useless.

He didn't waste a single second as he ran towards Sam and was about to stab the spear, the surroundings rippled with energy, but before he could finish the stabs. The five Naga shadows lunged at him.

He didn't want to stop and stab through the shadow, but as soon as he made the contact, the wind shrieked and the raindrops concentrated on him like crazy and the flames emerged from below his feet.

Silver lightning struck him from above and the raindrops are now like razor blades as they left small scars all over his body. And poison seeped into him.

His spear did destroy one shadow as soon he struck, but he was unable to make another move. The four shadows all bombarded him.

He felt frustrated and his hand started glowing along with the spear as he threw it towards Sam. But before it could reach half-way, surprisingly an ice wall fell from the clouds and slammed into the ground to stop the spear.

But the spear destroyed the wall and proceeded further. But didn't seem to mind as there is not a single frown on his face and just continued playing, but the tune changed and the wind howled faster.

The wind circled around the spear and the water drops turned into ice as they started spreading all over the spear making the energy ripples emitting from it reduce and the motion was slowed down. But all of the ice is being blasted off of it, but still, the ice didn't stop at all and slowed it down considerably.

But it still almost reached Sam, but before it could touch him, Sam's own shadow expanded and turned into a shape of the arm as he held the spear in place.

It didn't stop there, the ice disappeared and dark elemental energy flowed through the arm and enveloped the spear. It spun the spear and void style was activated.

Not just in the shadow arm, the whole domain's different elements had void style activated including the four shadows that are in combat with Kartikeya.

And all the elements struck him at the same time and the shadow arm threw the spear using the void style.

Kartikeya thought rapidly and grits his teeth in frustration. He closed his eyes and his whole body seemed to have changed as he glowed with energy. An energy armor manifested on him that has a stark resemblance to the armor Kumar's blood armor. An energy spear manifested in his hands and he stood tall as he swung his spear once.

An invisible fabric seemed to have rippled in the air as he spun the spear once around his body and energy ripples traveled far and wide as they destroyed everything surrounding him. But the range of the attack is not too large and kept on slashing with the spear and a large number of ripples started spreading and finally, he stabbed the spear in the air at the intersection of the ripples.

The ripples turned large and spread all over. The stage was destroyed and Sam's elemental domain disappeared. That included the attacks that came for him.

Sam couldn't keep up with his playing and he opened his eyes. He put away the flute as he turned his elemental fusion on and changed. He turned into a beam of golden light as he jumped upwards with all he got.

The light beam shot upwards and Sam escaped the range of the explosion. He took out the harbinger and deactivated his elemental fusion.

The effects of the explosion still reached him but no to a great extent but he still dodged them and balanced on the Harbinger before looking down again.

Kartikeya is still standing there on the stage and Sam slowly landed after the dust settled.

"You really are something else. You forced me to use this."

Kartikeya said with a wry smile as he deactivated the armor and the spear. He took out another spear and looked at Sam.

Kartikeya only has seven health bars left and Sam has twelves. This is the best chance Sam has if he really wants to defeat Kartikeya and he took out reaper and executioner. He has used too many staff moves in the chess game and Kartikeya is too familiar with them, he should try to change his style.

He activated the light element partial fusion and lunged at Kartikeya and the other party has done the same.

This time though, Sam is like a mindless fiend, he didn't care about getting injured. He left the spear stab through the part between his neck and shoulder and before the ripples could finish him off, forcefully pushed the spear out tearing his own flesh.

Kartikeya was bewildered for a second and Sam used this to jump into him and closed the distance by very much.

He stabbed reaper straight into his chest, but Kartikeya dodged and the stab turned into a slash that tore the flesh on his chest apart. Making him bleed.

Sam still took the closed distance to his advantage and used the Executioner sword as he held it in a backhanded way and stabbed it to the side.

Kartikeya once again dodged his vital parts, but the sword stabbed into the edge of his abdomen and Sam twisted the blade and dragged it to the side tearing a small part off of the body, but he didn't step back after finishing the attack.

In fact, he moved even closer as if he was trying to embrace Kartikeya.

At this distance, the executioner couldn't even be useful.

As he forcefully walked into him, Kartikeya tried his best to make some distance, but Sam is not giving him any chance and thus, he cannot use his spear.

In fact, in his distance, it is hard to even punch, they are almost hugging each other after all. Sam pushed Kartikeya back and they are nearing the edge of the stage.

Kartikeya was done with him and dropped the spear, he held Sam's left hand that was holding the executioner, and using he used his both hands to lock it and used as he tried to break the arm.

But he held the arm tightly in the lock without breaking it and the energy ripples started ravaging the arm and they are soon to spread to Sam's whole body.

But Sam didn't show a single trace of pain, even the sleeve of the feather coat was completely ravaged, and right before the ripples could reach the shoulder joint, Sam moved to the side with his arm still in place and used the reaper in his right hand to cut off his left hand.

Kartikeya was shocked for a brief second, at Sam's ruthlessness and he was hit with the backlash of the skill.

At least he wanted to gain better distance, but Sam still persisted.

He once again started pushing Kartikeya back.

Kartikeya was now standing on the edge of the stage in a weakened state and he clinched into Sam and started using energy ripples, but all of a sudden, Sam's right hand dropped the sword and claws appeared.

Energy waves appeared and he slammed his claw straight into Kartikeya's back and held him by the flesh as the void style exploded.

Kartikeya's flesh exploded, but Sam also took the brunt of the explosion as they were clinching.

But he didn't stop. He forcefully pulled Kartikeya by his flesh and kneed him in the abdomen at the same time and made him stumble backward.

Kartikeya lost his balance and was about to fall off the place. But he held Sam's arm and hung from there as his claw was still imbued in the flesh, he was confident that Sam could pull him.

But he saw Sam's smirk and felt something was wrong.

Sam's right arm exploded into meat paste all of a sudden and Kartikeya fell.

At this moment, Sam's health bar only as a minute spark of health left and he lost consciousness of losing a lot of blood. Before he could take a step back, he fell forward into the void following his opponent.
