Chapter 1988 Fighting An Endless Swarm Of Insectoid Spirit Beasts!

-----

The Insectoid Spirit Beasts were the exact same ones that had invaded the Realm of Genesis before, which Truhan and Celica's armies had fended off before being swallowed by the Spiritual Plane's dimensional hole.

Their appearances varied widely, there were heavy armored ones as tall as thirty meters, resembling giant scarabs or horned beetles, there were tall and skinny ones with sharp scythes, resembling mantises, there were smaller, fast ones with sharp proboscis, resembling mosquitoes, and there were small ones specialized on biting and stinging, resembling wasps.

Their colors varied a lot, each of their sections were usually of several colors, indicating that these bugs had more elemental affinities than normal Spiritian people. And indeed, it was because they were not naturally born in this world, but chimeric creatures born from one of the Spirit Generals serving the Ruler of this Plane.

They varied from Rank 5 to Rank 8, which was already quite a lot. To put into comparison with Genesis or the vast of the Universe's Power Levels, Rank 1 Spirit Beasts were as strong as Low-Ranking Great Gods. Then from Rank 2 to 4 they were as strong as Mid Rank Great Gods, Rank 5 to 6 are as strong as High Rank Great Gods, Rank 7 as strong as Pseudo Supreme Gods, and lastly, Rank 8 ended at Low-Rank Supreme Gods.

The reason why this world was so dangerous to mere mortals was because even the "mortals" of the Spiritual Plane were as strong as Low Rank Great Gods, the reason why Amethyst and his village had survived in such a dangerous, monster-filled world was because they were already strong enough to at least run away safely from them if they coordinated their strength, alongside being able to hunt the weaker beasts just fine.

Of course, Amethyst and the others had a secret, the [Spirit Heart] that allowed the Spiritians to cultivate Spiritual Energy and ascend it into a Divine State, granting them even stronger abilities, some which were surprisingly overpowered as well, such as Obsidian's Sealing Chains, or Azurite's amazing powers!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Skadi flew across the skies, ferociously swinging her gigantic Frost Spear at her enemies, and piercing dozens of Insectoid Spirit Beasts at once.

CRAAAASSSH!

With a single, direct strike, a huge piercing shockwave of Divine and Magical Energy erupted from her attack, hundreds of Insectoid Spirit Beasts were shredded into pieces.

The powers that Azurite granted her were incredible, as long as she channeled her powers, she could grow as strong as a Supreme Goddess, a wall she was never able to completely cross before.

"I won't let you defile my home anymore! You damned monsters!"

Skadi was furious, channeling her own Divinity primarily, and only using Azurite's boost as her last resort, as she pointed her huge blue hands at a swarm of a hundred mosquito-like insect spirit beasts, a huge magic circle materialized in a single second.

"[Divine Eternal Winter Magic]: [Frost Dragon Breath]!"

FLAAASH!

Ice and winds materialized in front of her, shaping and crystalizing into the gigantic head of a Frost Dragon, opening its huge jaws and letting out a gigantic blast of Frost Energy, resembling a blue-colored beam… The damage was incredible!

BOOOOOOMMMM!!!

Not only were they instantly frozen solid, but their bodies immediately gained countless cracks and crumbled into pieces, killing over a hundred of them on the spot!

Skadi did not finish there, however, as she noticed another two swarms coming closer, both working in tandem as some of the stronger scarab-type insectoid spirit beasts put themselves on the front.

Meanwhile, the weaker magician-type lean insectoid spirit beasts gathered their spirit energy and fired all sorts of elemental attacks. Fire Meteors, Cutting Winds, Shadow Bullets, Icicle Spears, and even Beams of Blinding Light!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

They attempted to overwhelm Skadi with sheer numbers, and it seemed to be working on their primitive minds, only for a bit though.

"Too weak. You've decided to fight the Queen of your enemies and you expect her to go down easily? Bear in mind I have not stepped into battle only because I've been protecting my home!" Skadi roared, suddenly materializing a second spear. "Because I'm not weak!"

She swung both of her spears, launching them at the two swarms at once! The huge scarab-type insectoid spirit beasts immediately responded by covering their bodies on magical armor and attempting to block the attacks.

However…

CRAAAAAASSSSH!!! CRAAAAAASSSSH!!!

The spears easily pierced through their almighty defenses with utmost ease, shattering their magical barriers and hard armor, and impaling them by almost a hundred per spear! The smaller magician-type insectoid spirit beasts were shredded into pieces by the shockwave of the impact alone!

"Hmph."

Skadi's Spears instantly went back to her hands, as more and more swarms kept approaching, coming from the shattered barrier, who had a gigantic hole that was not repairing itself any longer.

She glanced into the distance with her powerful Titaness Eyes, realizing the neighboring Floating Spirit Island's barrier was distorted, generating some sort of portal where the insects came from.

"That must be a Swarm Portal conjured by Hedlehash!" Azurite's voice echoed within Skadi as both were fused as one.

"Who?" Skadi asked.

"She's the Sorceress of Parasitic Spirit, an evil and wicked woman that serves my sister loyally. She was the one that betrayed the rest of us siblings, putting us into this situation where we've been hiding and looking for help to deal with them before things only become worse…" Azurite sighed. "She's very strong! But her powers mostly deal with summoning beasts, or… mutating them into even stronger creatures."

"Huh, so that type of strong." Skadi sighed. "This is not going to be easy, if she keeps those coming endlessly, there'll be no chance for us to retaliate!"

Skadi kept slaying insectoid beasts as they flew towards her, constantly flying majestically across the skies, blizzards, icicle spear rains, and powerful piercing blows slaying hundreds of insects at once.

Yet more and more kept coming, endlessly…

"Her magic is certainly incredible, but she shouldn't have endless energy either! Eventually, she'll get tired. We have to endure!" Azurite said. "I might be wounded, but I am still a Supreme Spirit, I'll give you more of my strength, Skadi!"

"Azurite…!"

FLAAAASH!
