Feint green wind flows around the two as Shedoden stares at Riegs his expression calm and calculating
"Alright then come at me"
Riegs chuckles scornfully
"Very well"
Riegs steps forward as the ground shatters under his foot he luanches towards Shedoden with tremendous speed
Closing the distance he swings a right hook as Shedoden calmly steps back before using his hands to redirect Riegs fist
Shedoden exerts force clutching Riegs arm before spinning him around twice as he sends him into air preparing to smash him into the ground
Reigs smiles as he chuckles lightly
Reigs moves his body backwards kicking Shedoden in the gut when a tremendous force followed launching Shedoden far back
Shedoden flips backwards then plants his feet on the ground sliding for a while as he stopped
Riegs voice rung in his ears
"Huh quite smart redirecting my attacks then using the momentum of my own attacks to harm me"
Reigs scoffs
"Heh let's see how that works out for you"
Reigs charges
Balling his fist he swings it towards Shedoden side steps to the left when his eyes dialted
'A feint?'
Riegs swings his other fist as a massive is unleashed
Shedoden readied his fist the swung it towards Reigs attacks
His fist clashes with the force as Shockwaves destroyed everything around them
Shards of reality littered the surroundings as energy from the eighth layer
Shedoden looks around when his eyes widened
"Hold on with the scale of battle and how you've fought so far you don't seem to be a person of restraint"
Riegs smiles eerily
"Huh so you actually figured out why im considered a Shadow general"
Shedodens brows furrow
"Your job as Shadow Commander isn't simply to command from the Shadow but your a fail safe for the digital empire"
"You use all the accumulated damage you receive to unleash a powerful attack but you and everyone in battle are aware that if you use an attack strong enough"
"You can reset the battlefield returning the battle 30 minutes prior to the reason for the reset"
Shedoden glares at Riegs
"Thats how the Digital Empire wins there battles"
Riegs burst out laughing
"You figured that much out just from my fighting style truly fitting of Spirit King across all nine Spirit realms"
Reigs expression become cold as he says seriously
"So what the hell is knowing what im doing going to help you or even stop me"
Shedoden smiles darkly his eyes glowing as dark blue hue
"Guess your just going to have to find out won't you Riegs"
Shedoden closes his eyes
"Guess there's no use in saving this for later"
Suddenly blue and orange seeped out from Shedodens body as he opens his eyes its revealed his irises were now a firery orange on the right while a calm firery blue on the left
Riegs scoffs
"Really tier 1 Spirit flames and basic flames what's that going to do"
Riegs balls his fist
'To be fair his the Spirit King so I can't underestimate him'
He thought
Reigs and Shedoden charges towards each other clashing fist as the exchanged fist Shedoden kept evading and attacking while Riegs didn't block at all focusing entirely on attacking
Reigs unleashed a powerful uppercut that Shedoden narrowly evades when Reigs twirled before delivering a back spin kick
Shedoden raises his arms to block when a second force hit hit men launching him far back as his feet slide across the ground
The force from Reigs attack had caused a massive hole into the fifth layer
Reigs puts down his foot before scoffing filled with contempt
"Holding back your punches to reduce the impacts that my attacks have in reality"
"Quite self sacrificing i must say"
Shedoden snorts coldly
"What would you know"
Riegs smirks
"Hey have you ever considered I'd just use all my accumulated damage to just wipe out Axior"
Shedoden shakes his head
"I have no need to worry about that as we both know you seek to conquer Axior for yourselves"
"Another point being your authority doesn't have that capability mainly because you can't keep the damage you stored for long or else it'd kill slowly"
"How i know is simple every three minutes you unleash a powerful attack now that could be either habit or taht you can't store damage for long before it begins hurting you"
Shedoden shrugs
"But thats just my guess"
Reigs stares silent his eyes narrowing as he groans
Shedoden balls his fist raising them
"Now let's continue"
Shedoden dashes closing the distance delivering a kick to the side of Reigs knee
Unaffected Riegs releases an onslaught of devastating powerful and fast punches
Shedodens eyes widen as he counters with his own onslaught of punches
For while the sounds of fists clashing and reality cracking could only be heard when Reigs stepped back
He grits his teeth then delivers a powerful punch
Shedoden raises both his arms blocking the attack as Shockwaves scatter the broken debrie Shedoden is sent flying back when Reigs expression changes slightly to confusion
Shedoden stops his body from moving any further back as he chuckles
"Confused right"
"Hehe Reigs there was good reason why I could defeat that 1000 god level army"
Shedoden smiles
"I also discovered something while fighting you"
"You have an immortal damage absorbtion body"
Reigs groans
"Tell how did you figure it out?"
"Simple really based on the current warship state if I take what you said at face value im sure that astral damage was inflicted on two one if the generals by now amd yet there were zero essence spikes within your"
Shedoden points at his head
"Another thing you couldn't have seamlessly controlled that input damage instantly with how fixated your battle intent amd killing intent were on me"
Reigs chuckles
"Seems you have me figured out but explain to me one thing then honorable fighter"
Reigs eyes glow a grey hue
"Why are you stalling each time we clash you begin to breakdown my abilities purposely as if you were waiting for something"
Shedoden stays silent
"I've done my research on all you Calamity generals and your not the type to talk this much so tell why are you stalling?"
Shedoden stayed silent as he glances at a system panel

"Alright Reigs im taking you on seriously now"
Reigs smirks
"Thats what you were doing heh Alright"
Reigs balls his fist
"LETS SEE WHAT YOU GOT"
