Chapter 990 The fifth run (1)  

( The celestial realm, The perfect warrior's peak )

" Oh my, back so soon are we?" The perfect warrior said as Rudra cracked his neck and began to lightly dance on his toes, just like he used to when he walked onto any battlefield in Omega while having sky high self confidence.

" Yes, thought I might finally end your career today" Rudra said as he brought out Excalibur and Grim Reaper and casually slashed it in the air, but it ended up creating a terrifying sword slash that could chop up entire moons if it were done in the controlled universe.

*Boom*

-1 HP

The perfect warrior stopped this moon splitting move with a single finger, however, to his absolute surprise, a damage notification popped up when he did as he lost a single point in HP.

It was for a split second, yet Rudra could not believe his eyes as the objective that he had worked so hard for was actually achieved so easily?

He had not even started the fight and yet he managed to land a damage hit on the perfect existence?

" Your sword intent…. It's sharper….. have you been spending time with that maniac?" The perfect warrior enquired, however, Rudra did not wish to fall for his tricks anymore.

The floodgates had been opened and he did not wish to spend a single more minute trying to have idle chatter with the perfect warrior as instead, he turned his entire attention to fighting and fearlessly approached the perfect warrior.

The glib smile on the face of the perfect warrior suddenly turned to deadly seriousness as he took a proper fighting stance for the first time ever.

Rudra was using [ Time Dilation ] and it's effects were enhanced using the power of the time seed, hence he was currently fighting at a speed which was greater than even that of the perfect warrior, which is why Rudra could clearly see every movement and every feint that his opponent threw.

*clang* action *clang*

*clang*

*clang*

The perfect warrior deflected Rudra's sword attacks with nothing but his bare arms, as it seemed like Rudra's sword intent although much stronger than before was not enough to cut through the perfect warrior's energy body.

[ First Step : The Double Sword Overhead Slash ]

Activating his sequence, Rudra started with the move, double sword overhead slash and at the same time as he activated this move, he use [ Divine Concealment ] to create an open box such that it fit the perfect Warriors' body perfectly and prevented him from moving even a little as he became defenseless against Rudra's attack.

*Crash*

The perfect warrior, caught in the divine concealment had to use the entire strength in his body to break the tier10 seal, however, to do so, he had to lose 0.08 seconds, a time period that was too critical to move into a proper position for a block as once, he broke the barrier, he was forced to block Rudra's incoming sword slash by taking its impact head on.

*BOOM*

The entire celestial peak rocked from the impact of Rudra's overhead strike as he really came down bearing his full strength having full intentions to split the perfect warrior up in half if his opponent made even the slightest mistake.

-620,000

The perfect warrior lost a little bit of HP as Rudra felt his swords managing to sink ever so slightly in his energy body, however, because of his insane inherent defense, a move that was sure to end the life of a normal monarch only managed to garner a pitiful -620,000 damage against the perfect warrior.

[ Second Step : The right arm thrust ]

Suddenly dissapearing from infront, Rudra appeared behind the perfect warrior and attempted a feint to plunge his sword into his opponents back, however, it was to no avail.

The perfect warrior twisted to avoid the attack and slammed his elbow towards Rudra's face trying to knock him out cold, however, to his absolute surprise when he finally touched Rudra's form it dispersed into dust as it turned out that it wasn't Rudra that appeared behind him in the first place. " Where?" The perfect warrior murmured as goosebumps arose all over his skin.

He had now lived for thousands of years as the gatekeeper of this universe and had fought countless opponents including Rudra himself four times, yet never did he feel this sort of a thrill and danger in battle from an opponent as he could not understand what changed in such a short time?

Illusions did not work on the perfect warrior, he was immune to them, which is why what Rudra did to fool him with a technique was next to impossible as the perfect warrior failed to understand how he did it.

Not only that, but his form had completely dissapeared and even with his Supreme detection skills, the perfect warrior could not locate his position.

What Rudra did was use the power of the seed of space and the seed of void to hide in a pocket that was impossible to detect.

It was all a part of his plan to catch his opponent off-guard as the second when he panicked and lost his guard would be the second when Rudra struck.

[ Serenity Veil ]

[ Buddha's Body ]

[ Enhanced Reflex ]

The perfect warrior activated three moves at once that aimed at maximising defense and reflex.

Since he could not detect Rudra, he decided to focus on defending himself against Rudra and activated three extremely menacing defense moves.

However, little did the perfect warrior know that this was the exact opening that Rudra was looking for as he suddenly appeared, bursting out from near his leg and tried to plunge his swords into the perfect warrior's belly.

" No-" The perfect warrior said as he managed to detect Rudra in time and tried to push down on him using the Buddha's Palm, yet somehow all his three moves that he activated a second ago came undone at the critical moment as with his defences stripped, he lay naked to Rudra's attack.

*Splat*

Rudra managed to plunge both his swords an inch deep into the perfect warriors belly, causing significant damage to his opponent.

-140,000,000

It was at this moment that the perfect warrior noticed that there was a time loop near his legs, a time loop that he failed to notice when he panicked and started to look for Rudra and a time loop that undid all his moves.

" Ohhh yeah, that felt good-" Rudra said as he stepped back and moved onto the next step.
