Destiny Of Immortality

Chapter 8: The Unseen War



The battlefield was a blur of chaos. Rai warriors clashed with Bahun soldiers, the roar of battle and the clash of steel ringing in the air. But despite the madness surrounding him, Shree Yan's focus was locked on the towering figure in black armor—the one who had emerged as the true weapon of the Bahun sect. His presence was suffocating, and the power radiating from him threatened to break the balance of the battlefield.

The figure, cloaked in darkness, moved with terrifying precision. With each wave of his hand, the very air seemed to bend and twist. Rai soldiers faltered, their strength drained by the oppressive aura he exuded.

"He's manipulating the spiritual energy around him," Shree Yan murmured, eyes narrowing as he studied the enemy. "This is no ordinary warrior. This man is a Spirit Binder—a master of manipulating the very essence of life."

Diwahang, standing beside him, looked grim. "I knew the Bahun sect was dangerous, but this... this is beyond what we anticipated. We must take him down before he disrupts our entire army."

Shree Yan nodded. He could feel the growing weight of the situation. The Spirit Binder wasn't just a soldier; he was a force of nature, capable of controlling the battlefield with sheer will. The Rai family needed to find a way to neutralize him, or they would be doomed to lose the war before it even truly began.

"I'll engage him," Shree Yan said, his voice unwavering. "You focus on rallying the troops. We need to keep the Bahun soldiers distracted while I take down their weapon."

Diwahang's eyes widened. "Shree Yan, are you certain? He's—"

"I know," Shree Yan interrupted, his eyes glinting with determination. "But I'm not going to let this war be decided by one person. If I can cut off their power, their entire army will crumble."

With a nod of approval, Diwahang turned and issued commands to his generals. The Rai soldiers around them surged forward, pushing back against the Bahun forces. But Shree Yan's focus was solely on the Spirit Binder.

He moved quickly, his body blending into the shadows as he approached the enemy. The closer he got, the more he could feel the spiritual energy twisting in the air. It was like trying to move through thick mud, the weight of it almost unbearable. But he had faced worse.

Reaching the heart of the battlefield, Shree Yan saw the Spirit Binder standing alone, his eyes glowing with a strange, otherworldly light. The ground around him was cracked and distorted, as if the very fabric of reality was being torn apart.

"You think you can challenge me?" the Spirit Binder's voice rang out, booming and filled with a dark, reverberating power.

Shree Yan stepped forward, his gaze unwavering. "I'm not here to challenge you. I'm here to end this."

With that, Shree Yan summoned the full power of Gaia and Vesper. The earth beneath his feet cracked open, and the winds howled as he pushed his energy forward, releasing a torrent of Aether that collided with the Spirit Binder's barrier of spiritual energy.

The two forces clashed violently, the impact sending shockwaves through the battlefield. Rai and Bahun soldiers alike were knocked off their feet by the force of the collision, but Shree Yan and the Spirit Binder stood unyielding.

"You are strong," the Spirit Binder said, his voice tinged with amusement. "But your strength is no match for the power of the Spirit Realm."

Shree Yan's eyes flashed with understanding. The Spirit Binder was not just manipulating the physical world—he was tapping into a realm beyond, a space between life and death. No wonder his power was so overwhelming. But Shree Yan had been preparing for this. He had studied the flow of the Aether in ways that most could never understand.

Drawing on his mastery of both Gaia and Vesper, Shree Yan stretched out his hand, directing his will into the very fabric of the Spirit Realm. It was a dangerous move, but one he had no choice but to make. If he could disrupt the balance the Spirit Binder was controlling, he could break the enemy's hold on the battlefield.

The ground trembled beneath them, and the Spirit Binder's confident expression faltered for a brief moment as Shree Yan's energy began to interfere with his control. It wasn't enough to overpower him, but it was enough to create an opening.

"Now!" Shree Yan whispered to himself.

In that instant, Shree Yan channeled every ounce of his strength into a single, explosive attack. He thrust his hand forward, sending a surge of Aether that ripped through the Spirit Binder's barrier and struck him directly in the chest.

The Spirit Binder recoiled, staggering backward as his connection to the Spirit Realm faltered. The crackling energy around him flickered and dissipated, and the oppressive aura that had suffocated the battlefield began to wane.

"You fool," the Spirit Binder hissed, his voice low and filled with malice. "You think you can defeat me? I am the Warden of the Spirit Realm. I am beyond your reach."

Shree Yan's eyes burned with determination. "Not anymore."

With a final, devastating burst of power, Shree Yan unleashed a wave of energy that shattered the Spirit Binder's defenses completely. The dark figure screamed, his body collapsing in on itself as the very essence of his existence was torn apart by the overwhelming force of Gaia and Vesper.

The Aftermath

The battlefield fell silent as the Spirit Binder disintegrated into nothingness. The air grew lighter, the oppressive weight that had plagued the Rai army lifting. Bahun forces, caught off guard by the sudden loss of their strongest weapon, faltered.

Diwahang and his generals looked on from afar, their expressions a mix of disbelief and awe.

Shree Yan stood amidst the battlefield, his body humming with the residual energy of the battle. He had done it. The Spirit Binder was no more, and with his defeat, the Bahun forces lost their greatest advantage.

But as the dust began to settle, Shree Yan couldn't shake the feeling that this victory, though significant, was only the beginning. The war was far from over, and the Bahun sect had many more tricks up their sleeve.

"Shree Yan," Diwahang called out, rushing toward him. "You did it. You took down their strongest weapon."

Shree Yan nodded, but his gaze remained distant, his thoughts clouded. "This war is far from over. We've won this battle, but there will be more."

Diwahang placed a hand on his shoulder. "We'll face them together. With you by our side, the Rai family has nothing to fear."

Shree Yan looked at him, a small, confident smile crossing his face. "We'll see, Big Brother. We'll see."
