The Heavenly Martial Empress Returns Chapter 332: Fierce Clash!

-----

“Kalana, join your brother and attack that thing when we create an opening!” Mursha said.

“But Mom…!” Kalana didn’t like the idea; she wanted to fight by her mother’s side only. 

However, Mursha wasn’t going to let her do as she pleased, glaring at her with a serious expression in her eyes. 

“Kalana! You know this is the only way. Don’t be reckless, and don’t disobey your mother’s words!” Mursha roared, gripping her axe tightly. 

Crimson energy surged from her aura, making her entire body glow brightly. Her Bloodfang Runes activated at maximum power, the pelt and leather of her clothes merging with her body as red fur grew around her arms, legs, and neck. Her leather coat displayed the head of a ferocious wolf with glowing red eyes. 

“AWOOOOO!” 

The Bloodfang Wolf roared mightily within Mursha, its power having merged with her after it passed away completely. The powerful Spiritual Beast that had protected her tribe imbued her with immense strength. 

“UNGAAAAHH!” 

In response to the wolf’s howl, Fiery Hair let out a blazing roar. Her red hair turned completely into flames, and her already black skin darkened further, the color of cinders. Her white tattoos turned red and blazing, her eyes becoming flames themselves. 

Both women leaped forward, their enormous, muscular bodies granting them titanic strength against the monstrous Coldwind’s attacks.

Her frozen claws and azure tentacles rushed down. Tapping into her Alien God’s power, she froze her surroundings constantly while summoning powerful Ice Statues to fight for her. 

The children didn’t stay idle. While trying to control his newfound power, Rainbow Eyes rushed forward beside his mother, punching and kicking the Ice Statues. Each of his blows created shockwaves and explosions of silver, red, and black flames.

Kalana quickly joined her brother, ensuring he was safe. She wielded her special Axe, part of her emerging unique talent—the power to materialize powerful Divine Relics, Weapons, from her own Aura and solidify them into fully materialized items. 

“RAAARRR!” 

Rainbow Eyes let out a demonic roar, and Kalana grew worried. His attacks were becoming more potent and explosive, and she feared he might lose his mind if that power took over him. 

“Rainbow Eyes, why don’t you take a break?” 

She ran to his side, slashing and cleaving apart the Ice Golems with her Aura Axe and Aura Sword, both imbued with her powerful Venerable Aura. 

“What… what are you talking about?! I’m fine!” 

Rainbow Eyes tried to push his sister away as he kicked one of the approaching Ice Golems, only to be met by a giant mass of golems unifying into a massive frozen hand rushing down. 

“Brother! Be careful!” 

Kalana leaped into the skies, her body’s white tattoos glowing bright red, activating the power of the Bloodfang Tribe. These Runes boosted her strength and shaped her Aura into a ferocious red wolf. 

“{Bloodfang Aura Weapon Arts}: {Thousand Crimson Cuts}!” 

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! 

The giant frost hand rushed down but was quickly slashed apart, exploding into countless tiny pieces that fell from the sky like snow. 

BOOOM! 

“I did it! Brother, are you okay?” 

Kalana ran toward her brother with a cute smile, but Rainbow Eyes responded angrily, even furiously. His eyes glowed red, and the horn on his forehead had grown twice its size. 

“W-Why are you mad?” 

“That was my PREY!” 

“Calm down! It’s okay, we can hunt later. This isn’t the time to play games…” 

“Games?! This isn’t a game! Grrrr…! You make me so mad! Just don’t get in my way, will you?!” 

“Brother?!” 

The little half-orc was shocked to see her brother rush forward, leaving her behind after screaming at her like he had never done before.

Their relationship had always been great, but something had triggered the boy to act this way, and it even scared Kalana a little.

That power within him, whatever it was…

It was controlling his mind, dictating what he should or shouldn’t do! 

At the same time, Mursha and Fiery Hair clashed against the beast. The orc warrioress cut through the monster’s tentacles with her powerful axe, which had continuously evolved into a Living Weapon, while the cavewoman’s fists and Primal Power alone were more than enough to pulverize her opponent’s limbs. Each blow created ripples through space, shattering the creature’s ice and producing blazing explosions. 

“UUUGGHH! YOU’RE SO ANNOYING!” 

Coldwind grew frustrated as she continued conjuring powerful spells. Waves of frost covered her surroundings, and small stars of ice appeared, bombarding Fiery Hair and Mursha endlessly. 

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! 

Each of the sorceress’s spells had been amplified and made even stronger. Her Frozen Novas, in particular, were deadly—small ice bombs she conjured around her entire body. Whenever they stepped forward, like landmines, they exploded in quick succession. 

“Uuuggh!”

“Damn it!” 

Fiery Hair and Mursha groaned in pain. The constant explosions had caught them off-guard, destroying their current momentum and pushing them back in pain. The ice covering their bodies was burned away by their fiery auras, but there was so much ice coming from everywhere that it became completely overwhelming. 

“You’ll need more than just your little weapons or punches to actually hurt me, monkeys!” 

Coldwind laughed as her limbs and tentacles regenerated rapidly, her Divine Aura warping her surroundings and creating a pseudo-domain resembling a snowstorm. 

“I’LL BURY YOUR FROZEN CORPSES BENEATH MY SNOW!” 

A powerful snowstorm pushed both muscular warrioresses back, constantly forcing them to unleash more of their power to keep up, realizing that holding back was not a good idea. 

“Mursha, go all-out!” Fiery Hair roared. 

“Sure thing, there’s no point anymore!” Mursha said. 

The two warrioresses began powering up, their Auras erupting with immense, unseen strength. Coldwind’s azure eyes widened, realizing they weren’t even done yet…
