Chapter 876 Wind And Sky, The Battle Of Godly Powers Above The Waters Of The Tañon Strait

Day 240 - 11:08 AM - Mount Canlaon, Municipality of Codcod, Province of Negros Occidental

The sudden change in the situation caused some commotion in the audience.

It was not wrong to say that it was just a matter of time before Mark and his group were defeated.

Mei was being chased by an attack that she could barely outrun. Amihan and Chimetrice were swallowed by the same attack. And Mark was barely capable of moving after swallowing the crystal.

The only thing that kept them from dying was Sinogo's arrogance, watching his opponents as they struggled for their lives.

But all of a sudden, all of Mark's group were safe. They were injured and tired but out of the predicament nonetheless.

And it was all due to the small [Sylph]. A creature that was supposed to be barely able to do anything against someone with a God's power.

With two Godly auras contending, the pressure on the battlefield increased. One would think it doubled, but it was more than that. If a regular person, even most magical creatures, stepped into the battlefield at this moment, they would immediately freeze out of instinctual fear.

Chimetrice aside, it was fortunate that Mark and Mei were unique individuals. If not, they would be severely affected just by staying on the battlefield.

Everyone was surprised to see this sudden change in the situation. Those watching all saw Mark do something and would not be surprised if the change was caused by him.

But no.

The change was caused by the most unexpected individual.

Even Mark was strictly paying attention to Amihan. He was also surprised. He never noticed a single clue that Amihan concealed such power. Since he had [Miasma], he became more sensitive to magical energy and did not see anything strange on Amihan.

And back in the base, Annica, who could see energies within an individual, never mentioned anything strange about Amihan.

In fact, Amihan was initially the weakest [Sylph] that Mark had met and seen. But now, she was clearly the strongest among them.

Of course, Amihan shared the name of the Tagalog Goddess of the Wind. But having such a name was never a recognizable clue as parents tend to give popular or powerful names to their children, hoping to share the fates and future of those individuals.

Not to mention... Mark did not know whether the Godly aura Amihan was releasing came from that very same Goddess or someone else.

On the other hand, Chimetrice stared at Amihan. The ant, smaller than the others, was the one to retaliate now. He felt her exuding a powerful aura but did not know that it was a Godly aura similar to his. And, compared to Mark, he did not feel afraid. Instead, he felt more and more excited.

In Sinogo's mind... If he devoured this winged ant, he would become far stronger. He could not wait...

BAM!

Sinogo caused a sonic boom behind him as he flew down towards Amihan.

But then...

SHWOOOOM!!!

Sinogo froze a second in the sky before his body was violently flung to the ground. At the same time, dust and wind exploded as the force that pushed Sinogo to the ground crashed with him.

Everyone was shocked, while some cheered.

Not everyone saw or realized what happened, but the [Sylphs] and those familiar with magical energy felt a strong magical wind push Sinogo down from the sky.

Sinogo crashed to the ground in an unsightly manner. The impact would have been more than enough to turn people into meat paste. But, of course, not Sinogo.

While the violent wind continued to try and pin Sinogo to the ground, Sinogo slowly rose from his fall. He was clearly confused and agitated by what happened, but that was all. His body did not have a single injury, although he was kind of struggling to stand up once more.

And then...

SHWOOOOOM!!!

The wind blew stronger.

Everyone watched as, in a straight line, several kilometers behind Sinogo, everything was being stripped off the ground.

Large trees flew to the sky while the grass and other plants were ripped off the ground without resistance. Even rocks were not exempted as they were flung off the ground they rest on.

It was as if a giant hair trimmer passed through Earth's surface and instantly trimmed its hair up to the scalp, leaving a bald line of skin.

However, the only one to be able to endure the violent blow was the one attacked by it, Sinogo.

Sinogo planted his feet on the ground while enduring the strong winds. He was uninjured, and the aura enveloping his body blocked the winds from directly hitting him. But, it did not mean that the force created by the wind would vanish.

If one was to block an attack with a shield, the attack might not directly hit the person's body. However, he could still be blown together with the shield he held.

Sinogo was pinned down and was unable to move. The strong wind he was facing was not as sharp as his tornadoes but blew far stronger. His current state could be compared to a person standing in the middle of a flooded river and trying to go against its flow.

At this time, Amihan turned to Mark and Mei. With Sinogo pinned down, they could have a short conversation.

"Master, Mistress. I'm going. Leave him to me for now," Amihan said before turning to Chimetrice. "Thank you for protecting me earlier."

Chimetrice shook his head, indicating that it was no problem, while Mark asked Amihan.

"Can you defeat him?"

The question made Amihan show a bitter smile.

"I don't really know. That's why Master... Hurry up and help, okay?"

That lack of confidence, Amihan surely was still Amihan.

"Hah..." Mark sighed. "I'll do my best. Be careful, okay?"

"Be careful."

Mei wished the same.

p "Yeah!"

Amihan smiled as she turned around to face Sinogo.

Sinogo was already in the process of breaking Amihan's attack that pinned him there. In another second or two, it would be his turn once more.

But Amihan would not let that.

A sudden gust of wind blew from all directions and converged towards Sinogo. Amihan then made motions with her arms as if gathering something into her hands. Her movements caused the wind to blow stronger towards Sinogo.

And at the end, Amihan made a throwing motion with her arms, as if throwing something heavy towards the east.

Everyone watching was surprised. Sinogo had already broken through the attack pinning him and was ready to charge. But he suddenly lost his footing, and Sinogo was flung up to the sky towards the east.

Sinogo spun uncontrollably as his body lost control in the air.

Amihan then gave one last glance at her companions before her whole body glowed, and she chased after Sinogo.

It was clear to everyone what just had happened. Amihan brought the battle above the Tañon Strait between the island provinces of Negros and Cebu. It was the very same waters that sealed Sinogo for generations.

And now, the next round of this battle would happen above these cursed waters.

Here, there would be less destruction that would ensue during the battle. There would be fewer unintended deaths, and the two could fight freely.

In the sky above the Tañon Strait, Sinogo controlled the wind around him and stabilized his body.

But Sinogo did not have time to rest. He turned back only to see the golden light charging in his direction.

Of course, that light was no other than Amihan. Well, she was not charging at Sinogo. She was actually gathering as much around her as she flew.

Sinogo waved his hand and flapped his gigantic wings. He gathered his own wind, making several spirals, and shot it at Amihan. This scene looked ominous as the spirals actually sucked in clouds as they formed.

On the other hand, Amihan suddenly stopped with her hands pushing forward.

WHOOM! WHOOM!

The deafening sound of air exploding could be heard for miles away.

In an instant, the spirals Sinogo created dispersed after crashing into what seemed to be a giant invisible wall. Furthermore, the wall went straight toward Sinogo.

Sinogo flapped his wings and used his speed to avoid the incoming attack. This was the first time Sinogo had to avoid something ever since he reached his current form.

Amihan's attack that did not hit anything flew straight to the sky, tearing the clouds before dispersing into the atmosphere.

Unfortunately, Amihan's speed was still below Sinogo's. When her attack vanished, Sinogo already appeared beside her to catch her.

But Amihan did not feel afraid. The gigantic hand that could crush him effortlessly did not faze her now, enabling her to react to Sinogo's speed and attack.

BOOM!

Amihan caused the wind around her to explode, and it actually pushed Sinogo's hand away. It even left a slight tear on the aura enveloping Sinogo's hand.

But Amihan did not end there. With Sinogo's hand pushed away, his body was defenseless.

Amihan punched the air, and a large clump of air formed and solidified before hitting Sinogo's stomach like a cannonball.

"GAHAK!"

Sinogo let out an unsightly sound as his body was, once again, flung up to the sky.

The giant stabilized himself, holding unto his aching stomach. He was actually damaged by his prey's attack.

It was unbelievable for Sinogo.

And Sinogo was enraged.

Sinogo began releasing a powerful aura to his surroundings. The sky darkened once again as if a violent storm was brewing. Lightning flashed, and thunder roared. The wind then blew stronger and stronger, and the waters below surged.

The giant waved his hand. Several branches of lightning fell from the sky towards Amihan.

Air would not be able to block light and electricity. It might be able to scatter the two, but definitely not in this case where the lightning was caused by a powerful being.

However...

Amihan flew towards the water below. While her speed was not as fast as Sinogo's, it was still impressive. She was using wind to push her body while removing air resistance in front of her. She really was flying fast and reached near the water before the lightning could reach her.

It seemed unbelievable that Amihan could outrun the lightning, but she just did.

And upon reaching a certain distance from the water, Amihan waved her hands up as she continued flying away.

It was when several pillars of spiraling waters rose from the water and blocked the strikes of lightning.

Amihan just created twisters above the surface of the water, which caused it to suck water in. The twisters turned into water spouts, turning into good conductors of electricity and diverted the attacks from Amihan.

Pure water might not conduct water, but the strait's water was never pure in the first place.

With Sinogo's attack failing to reach Amihan, it was now her turn to attack.

Waving her hands like a dance, the water spouts she created to block the previous attack converged into one. It became a gigantic waterspout that was even bigger than the tornado that trapped her and Chimetrice before.

Amihan caused it to spin faster and faster, causing everything near the coast could already feel the force within the waterspout.

The water in the strait also began to spin as it followed the force of the waterspout. It was such a horrendous sight, and the one behind it was just a small [Sylph].

But when everyone thought that it was already done, Amihan clenched her fists.

The temperature inside the water spout decreased drastically. The water began forming into needles and blades of ice, spinning violently inside the spiraling wind. It felt like anything that entered that waterspout, no, the icy tornado, would become shredded to pieces.

And then, the terrifying weather phenomenon that Amihan created started moving towards Sinogo.

Of course, Sinogo was not stupid to just let himself get hit. He planned to avoid it. After all, his speed was incomparable to a measly spinning wind.

Or that was what Sinogo thought.

When Sinogo was about to flap his wings to fly away, Amihan turned her back on Sinogo and punched the air behind her.

BAM!

"URK!"

Sinogo felt the very same sensation when Amihan's attack hit his stomach. This time, it was on his back. His wings instantly felt numb from pain.

And worst of all, Sinogo was flung straight towards the icy tornado coming his way, unable to fly away.

In an instant, Sinogo was swallowed by it.
