But it didn't hurt Ignis.
These fragments fluttered and drifted in the air.
Ignis's left eye, however, shone with a dazzling red light.
Within that red light, was an extremely manic aura.
A behemoth, three meters tall, appeared out of thin air.
Rock Beast!
This was the effect of the Rock Beast Technique.
Under Ignis's control, the Rock Beast opened its mouth wide.
A terrifying suction force was generated from the Rock Beast's mouth.
Those fragments immediately converged towards it.
In the blink of an eye, these fragments transformed into a long sword.
The whole body was crimson red, and a layer of blood flowed on the surface.
It looked like a burning lava.
Gripping the hilt of the sword, Ignis aimed at Code.
This was an extremely ancient combat form.
The Rock Beast's attack range was very wide.
But because its defense and attack weren't very good, and its basic attributes were biased towards melee combat, Ignis generally used it to assist his close combat.
But now, Code was a Kage-level ninja, and he didn't know what abilities he had mastered, so he could only use the Rock Beast Technique.
"Roar!"
The Rock Beast roared, and pounced towards Code.
The rock blade slashed down.
A look of ferocious appeared on Code's face, and he threw a punch.
On the surface of the fist, there was a layer of armor similar to rock.
"Bang!"
The rock blade and rock fist collided.
A circle of ripples spread out, the ground cracked inch by inch, and smoke and dust filled the air.
When the smoke disappeared, Code had already appeared hundreds of meters away.
He had retreated at least dozens of steps.
And the place where he was originally standing, had an extra deep pit.
"Hmm?"
Ignis was slightly surprised, although his Rock Beast Technique was only at the fifth stage, its power should be good.
Code actually withstood it?
How much power amplification did he have?
"Come again! Bastard!"
Code cursed angrily, and formed hand seals with both hands.
His body suddenly bounced up, charging towards the Rock Beast.
His two hands were covered with fine scales.
The Rock Beast's attack, actually couldn't cause too much damage!
With a thought, Ignis, the Rock Beast charged out again, towards Code, who was charging over.
One person and one beast fought again.
Ignis's Rock Beast was still at a disadvantage, and couldn't even do anything to Code.
But Code also had no way to achieve victory.
This situation made him feel a little tricky.
It was as if he clearly occupied an absolute advantage, but he just couldn't do anything to the other party.
This feeling, was really terrible.
"Never mind!"
Code gritted his teeth, formed hand seals with both hands, and shouted, "Earth Style: Earth Core Destruction!"
"Crack crack"
A series of crisp sounds came.
The entire valley began to tremble violently, and pieces of broken large rocks flew out from within the mountain wall.
Crashing towards Ignis.
Earth Style: Earth Core Destruction was a forbidden technique unique to Iwagakure, specifically targeting enemies.
Unfortunately, it was simply not enough in front of the Rock Beast Technique.
One boulder after another was easily torn apart by the Rock Beast, and finally collapsed completely.
"This..."
Code widened his eyes, unable to believe this fact.
Ignis, however, didn't give up the intention to attack.
The Rock Beast continued to charge towards Code, its tail sweeping out.
The sound of boulders shattering rang out again.
Code hurriedly shifted to the side, barely dodging this attack, but also paid some price, several wounds appeared on his chest, seeping a lot of blood.
"No, I must get rid of this thing first, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
Code thought to himself.
He had confirmed that the ninjutsu in this world, were somewhat different from the ninjutsu he had seen before.
However, he didn't panic, but instead fell into some kind of excited state.
Forming hand seals with both hands.
"Rock Binding!"
Along with Code's incantation, the earth trembled again.
Vines made of earth elements drilled out one after another, binding the Rock Beast's body.
"Roar!"
The Rock Beast roared angrily, breaking free from the restraints, and continued to pounce on Code.
"Hmph."
Code snorted coldly, and formed hand seals again, "Earth Style: Rock Spear!"
The rock and soil around his body suddenly exploded, and thick rock thorns emerged one after another.
Attacking the Rock Beast wildly like a rain of pear blossom.
Even if the Rock Beast's defense was beyond imagination, it couldn't withstand such a dense attack.
Various wounds began to appear on its body.
"Hahaha!"
Code smiled: "I'll see how long you can last, Rock Shield!"
A rock shield with a radius of dozens of meters, covering the Rock Beast's body, appeared.
Code's body leaped up and landed on the rock shield.
The rock shield suddenly rose to a position level with the Rock Beast, trapping the Rock Beast within it.
The Rock Beast attacked desperately, trying to break free from the restraints, but it couldn't do it for a while.
This made Code even more excited, manipulating the rock shield to launch attacks, each attack was a fatal attack.
Finally, in a painful wail, the Rock Beast was smashed to pieces in place.
Code stood on the rock shield, looking down at the boulders and soil below, his eyes fierce, as if he wanted to devour the enemy in front of him.
But, the next moment, his pupils suddenly contracted.
Because, those boulders and soil, suddenly squirm, quickly piled up, and finally formed the appearance of a human figure.
It was the Rock Beast that he had just killed!
Only, this time, the Rock Beast was no longer a simple Rock Beast Technique.
On the human form piled up with rock and soil, a set of rock armor appeared.
A full-body covering armor, looking quite domineering.
This scene made Code a little stunned.
Not only because this guy had actually resurrected, but more importantly, the other party had actually perfectly performed the Earth Style that he had just learned not long ago!
Could it be that the other party had already comprehended the essence of Earth Style?
