Number One Dungeon Supplier

Kraft's mind went into hyperspeed for a moment, forcing itself to look into the System's logs without checking the Pandamonium App and noted that Jin was indeed still alive and there was no death for this particular round at all.

The old fox himself would be lying if he did not say that he panicked a little especially all the devastation that he did to crush Jin with all his might.

"Grow!" Jin shouted and his sword was like the ice pillar previously, sprouting miniature metallic branches and spreading out to Kraft at multiple spots immediately. The Astral Panda Cultivator wanted to expand its Maqi to aim for all the major chi points so that the Fox would be unable to continue producing such a high volume of chi.

But even if Jin was unable to pierce and choke the major acupoints, his sword was still enchanted by Derek's magic and it was able to inflict an abnormal bleeding status that the Old Fox should not be able to clear with the usual cleansing chi methods.

On the other hand, Kraft still had no idea how Jin survived but the process ultimately did not matter since he only cared for the end result. Thus, he decided to bring his Graveyard Combo to the third stage.

"Fox Graveyard Domain: The Land of the Scars"

As soon as he did that, the concrete ground suddenly sullen and cracked, pieces of tombstones emerged from the abyss and were raised into existence with the might of Kraft. This was not his final stage of his combo but it was deadly enough to send a mid-high range cultivator to and back from hell. The tombstones were eerily poignant and yet they did not seem to be a decoration prop for this particular stage of Kraft's Graveyard Combo.

Kraft exclaimed as he held on to Jin's Bam and his sword started to vibrate as if it was scared of Kraft. The Astral Cultivator somehow could feel the sword's fear and instead turned Bam into a knuckle to avoid Kraft from messing it up but that was enough for the Fox to swing its elbow backwards, hitting Jin at his mastoid and causing him to be slammed back once more.

Furthermore, Kraft was no longer playing nice. He knew that the System could possibly interfere once again in this particular situation and so it was time to suit the flow of the battle to the Original Bellator's way. A graveyard tombstone shaped in an obelisk suddenly emerged from the wall in the direction of Jin's knockback, with the intention of piercing Jin into the tip of the tombstone.

And to ensure that the Panda had no other tricks at hand, Kraft fired Just Business several times. Furthermore, it was an upgraded shot technique which would automatically explode twice with delay upon impact to ensure that the enemy was dead. In addition, each time he fired the beam of energy towards Jin, the black chi aura that surrounded the battlefield would absorb the shot and teleport it right beside the Panda Cultivator, causing a direct hit on him.

There was no other way to block the attacks than to eat it upfront and to top it off, the sheer pressure from the piercing rendered Jin helpless. If that was the end, Jin could have regenerated with his vampire bones and legendary inscription within him regardless of the pain he was suffering but Kraft believed he knew all the powers up the Panda had and decided not to let chance play its part in this battle.

Additional Graveyard tombstones appeared and each of them had inscriptions on them. From simple curses to extreme death magic, the inscriptions lit up as they were activated by Kraft's chi powers. (Or rather the fox silhouettes which he summoned and commanded possessed those tombstones, to activate them.)

At that point, whatever magic that one would have experienced from a simple fire ball to an abyssal meteor, all of those inscriptions were on Kraft's Graveyard and the Old Fox activated every one of them, turn by turn, making sure that Jin was killed thoroughly. As if Kraft was killing a vampire with infinite regeneration, the old Fox did not allow any delay in the attacks and they impacted continuously, aiming from the top of his body to the bottom. The Obelisk also sucked the Maqi out of Jin to make sure that there was no way he could retaliate.

He did not care whether he was being cut into pieces, lost a pinky and left a toenail. Kraft made sure that he was destroyed to the end of times and asserted his dominance that he was the Original Bellator, one that should not be trifled with.

But even with all these forms of magic attacks, Kraft was unable to stop the bleeding done by Jin and despite the terrific powers of the Graveyard, there was no magic that could assist in his healing. He did think of putting a healing inscription or two in his third stage of the graveyard combo but he felt that it defeated the purpose of his Graveyard theme.

So, he shrugged the thought and waited for his magic to wither every visible component of Jin off from this dungeon instance until he felt the unspeakable once more whispering to him again.

"Are you sure that you are killing me right?"

This time the sword was not in his stomach but a slit through his neck with the help of his sword Boo. After which, Jin did the very same trick with Bam.

"Grow."

The sword once more sprouted metallic branches in a chaotic manner, piercing the Old Fox's wounds once again. However if one were as observant as a few of the foxes, they saw that the metallic branches were not attacking randomly but instead at the very same spots which Bam had wounded before.

Boo too had the enchantment from Derek's magic and the wounds festered even more which caused Kraft to finally succumb to his injuries. It seemed there was no way his standard chi healing methods were working and thus he decided to reabsorb the Graveyard technique to make sure he had enough chi in him to expel Half Ghoul's Lord bleeding effect.

"There can be no way, a bleeding effect can be that potent! How did you even appear right here? I am still killing you as we speak!" Kraft coughed out even more blood as he panted heavily trying to see where that Jin had appeared from. "No. No! I will not lose to some cultivator just like this!" Kraft thought to himself as he held onto No Mercy and inserted whatever chi he could gather to make a final area blast.

With this attack, No Mercy would trace for any chi different from Kraft's and attack instinctively with the scythe flying head on, piercing the origins of those chi signature. This was the only thing the Old Fox could think of in order to find the missing link. But as the chi area blast subsided, his scythe did not move an inch and Kraft fell to the ground panting, bleeding to his untimely death.

In the meantime, the foxes in the spectator area were dumbfounded that Kraft, the self proclaimed high and almighty cultivator could lose… Making the score from the duel an inconclusive draw.
