"Welcome Challenger."
"You may call me the Silver Rider."
Tang Wulin narrowed his eyes as he kept up his guard against the Silver Rider in front of him. He only knew a few things about the Silver Rider from the spectral demon and how it was one of the hardest to fiends to beat on this level.
So most demons who venture into the dungeon tend to avoid it at all cost or retreat when they discover his room.
The Silver Rider is one of the fiends on floor one of the dungeon of Mahal that guards one of the hell gates. The Silver Rider specializes in wielding his bow to strikes his enemy from an extensive range and using the elements as support.
From what he heard, the Silver Ride was master of archery, to the point where he could easily snipe at someone from one kilometer away. As for the elements, they were electricity and surprisingly light.
Seeing the Silver Rider in front of him, he couldn't help but think this being was at least at the level of a Spirit Emperor.
The Silver Ride tilted his head as he stared at the challenger before him. Just from the aura and the spirit energy around Tang Wulin, the rider could tell this person in front of him was strong.
'Not only that but he isn't being pressured or ruthlessly suppress by the dark aura of my Astra.' Thought the Silver Rider in interest.
No words were uttered as the Silver Rider instantly latched an arrow in one of his bowstrings and let it go. The arrow itself was a silvery arrow with a skull on the tip with the tip itself being dyed with blue flames.
The fire arrow ripped through the air and rocket towards Tang Wulin who looked as if he wouldn't be able to react in time.
'Show me your strength.' Thought the Silver Rider.
With unbelievable fast reflexes, Tang Wulin thrust out his fist to meet the blazing arrow. The Silver Rider eyes widen a bit as he watched the air around Tang Wulin fist twisting and trembling uncontrollably. Then with a thunderous boom, the fist met with the flaming arrow.
BANG!
Yet instead of Tang Wulin fist blowing apart the arrow, it was the arrow itself that blew up as Tang Wulin felt his fist make contact. His eyes were widening as the arrow expanded into raging flames and engulfed him.

'Finally, it stopped shaking and rumbling.' Thought Xie Xie as he was walking through the hallway while holding on to the walls.
The room where he was doing a trial with the other demons began shaking as if an earthquake was going off.
At first, he thought it was only just the room with the sea of raging fire he was in before. But even after he became one of the last five participants and left the room, the shaking didn't stop.
He wouldn't mind so much, except that the shaking almost caused him to die from the excessive vibration messing up his wall running. Although he was able to save himself with his clone, it would be an embarrassment if he was to die that way.
The uncontrollable shaking did cause most of the demons to fall who he didn't kill in the room, causing the door to open up and allowing them to leave. He was lucky he didn't meet any more groups of demons as he made his way through the hall.
'Then again, I would be surprised if any of them could try and hunt someone when it was that shaking.' thought Xie Xie.
'But, Wulin would most likely be able to fight through this.' Thought Xie Xie as he recalled his heaven-defying captain. He couldn't help but wonder if Wulin was also having trouble with these vibrations and if he was getting irritated like him.
As Xie Xie was walking, he came upon a door similar to the one at the entrance but the door was silver.
'Oh! I guess I found the Fiend.'

'What a terrifying instinct and reflexes, that man has.' Thought the Silver Rider in shock.
The arrow he shot was something that could outpace even lightning and was hard to track. Yet not only was the man able to track the arrow but he was able to react to the arrow with his fist. But that wasn't even the end as he saw what happened as he made contact with the arrow.
'To think he would step back.' Thought the Silver Rider.
While it would be almost impossible to see the moment when Tang Wulun step back as he did it at the very last second. The Silver Rider with his exceptional perception and acute senses was able to watch Tang Wulin move back in slow motion as the arrow was exploding outward.
'I'm sure he must have been damaged at least.'
The Silver Rider scarcely doubted Tang Wulin would be able to escape all of the damage even if he steps back. As the dust began to clear, the Silver Rider was able to see Tang Wulin but he was unharmed.
'Interesting.' Thought the Silver Rider with his interest peeking even more.
Without any more words, the Silver Rider placed another arrow onto his bow but before he could launch the arrow, Tang Wulin reacted. Tang Wulin stamped down on the ground causing the ground to create spider webs and for the room to start shaking.
'Calamity Tyrant Dragon Shocks The World.'
Sixteen demonic dragons burst forth around the area of Tang Wulin and the Silver Rider. All of the fierce dragons sped off toward the Silver Rider who merely jumps back and let loose one of his arrow on one of the dragon heads.
As the arrow made contact with the dragon head, an explosion rang out but the dragon head still kept on going although it was fainter than before. The Silver Rider latched on sixteen arrows onto his bow and added on the power of lightning around them.
After he fired off the arrows, he summons the power of lighting and dispatches it behind the sixteen arrows. As the arrow made contact, it caused the dragon heads aura to dim and when they clash with the lightning it was destroyed.
Yet as the Silver Rider was about to land, his body instantly turn ghost-like and disappeared. Just as the area he was merely in, exploded with purple-blue energy.
The Silver Rider place sixteen arrows on his bow and started to search for Tang Wulin. But that wasn't hard as the sound of a sonic boom went off and even more, visible cracks appeared in the room.
'Calamity Tyrant Dragon Soars.'
The Silver Rider watched as a beam of purple-gold was heading towards him. As the Silver Rider narrows his eyes, he was able to see what exactly it was. It was Tang Wulin rushing towards him with an aura of an extremely thin and transparent layer of golden scales with a wisp of purple energy.
Yet that didn't deter him as he homed in on him and fired off his arrows that were coated with lightning. The arrow turns into a streak of blue with fire and lightning interweaving between each other as they sped towards Tang Wulin.
Yet Tang Wulin didn't stop as his body rammed straight into the arrows and their collision causing an explosion that reverberated through the room. The Silver Rider latched on another set of arrows and released them as Tang Wulin burst through the cloud of smokes.
As the arrows were getting close to Tang Wulin who appeared unharmed. He waited until the last seconds before flipping over the arrows and then dashing straight to the Silver Rider. Even as the arrows behind him twist and turn around to chase after him.
The Silver Ride narrowed his eyes as a blue light began shining and causing Tang Wulin to flinch but he nevertheless kept on moving. A hint surprise was shone inside the socket of the Silver Rider but he still dashes backward while latching on one arrow on his bow.
Tang Wulin narrowed his eyes at this action but still charged forward. Then his eyes slight widen at the staggering amount of energy that the arrow was absorbing as the Silver Rider aimed it towards him.
A blue light appeared on the tip of the arrow. As the Silver Rider was pulling back, space began trembling around it and then he let go. It was only through Tang Wulin Asura Bloodline and his godly physiques from the Golden Dragon King that allowed him to react.
Tang Wulin was able to thrust out his hand to clash with the arrow that was able to pierce through space to strike him. The air began trembling as two unstoppable forces met each other and the force behind each of them caused the room to tremble.
Yet Tang Wulin began to grin as he felt his blood began to boil and pushes out his fist further causing the arrow to break apart. But he was still push back by the shockwave that was generating from him overcoming the arrow.
The Silver Ride furrow his brows but nonetheless latched another set of arrows his bow. But then his figure began to dissipate and disappear as numerous chains burst from the ground. Subsequently, they all chased after him as the reappeared a few meters away.
A huge burst of lightning erupted from around the Silver Rider as he fired off his arrows towards the chain. Then he tilted his head as a fist came smashing through and then instantly a set of arrows were placed on his bows again.
Next, he evades the kick towards his face by jumping and leaning back. He subsequently fired off the arrows even with the perilous position he was in. An explosion ran out and the Silver Rider disappeared as a fist thrust out and blew away the dust.
The Silver Rider latched another arrow but instead of shooting it towards Tang Wulin, they shot straight above both of them. Tang Wulin glances at the sky to see a swirl of murky clouds forming above with lighting rumbling through it.
The dark cloud was surrounding them in all directions and countless streaks of lightning hacked down towards Tang Wulin, producing an absolutely terrifying scene.
Tang Wulin stared up at the countless streaks of lightning coming towards and then thrust out his thin golden scaled fist towards them with all of his might. As his fist made contact with the streaks of lightning, his fist smashed through all of them and blew away the thunder clouds.
This caused an ear-splitting and deafening sound to reverberate through the room, while some of the electricity coiled around his arms. Then he thrust out his hand to meet the incoming arrows that were fired by the Silver Rider.
Then a streak of golden charge towards the Silver Rider who fired off his arrows and lightning attack towards Tang Wulin. All of the arrows were directed at Tang Wulin blindspot and the before the lightning reached Tang Wulin, it flashes out bright.
Then the arrow curved and head towards the area where the gold thin spectral scale was the faintest. Then above Tang Wulin, a fierce thunderstorm was forming and countless amount of terrifying lightning hack down toward Tang Wulin.
But then a demonic dragon roared out.
The flames in the Silver Rider eyes flickered as it experienced a tyrannical amount of pressure and suppression that almost caused him to kneel. He was able to see a golden dragon roaring out in the place of Tang Wulin but it wasn't alone.
A silhouette appeared next to the golden dragon. It had a desolate appearance with purple tribal marking that appeared all around its body and four horns on its head.
Then the being slightly uncloses its eyes causing an enormous amount of pressure to be released that completely and utterly annihilated all of the attacks coming towards it.
The overwhelming pressure was neither divine nor dominating. It felt like absolute destruction and ruin incarnated that he felt could destroy all of heaven and earth. The walls on the room were shattering and fissures were appearing through the ground.
Then it was gone as if it wasn't even there in the first place. The Silver Rider shifted its gaze to Tang Wulin who was staring at him stoically. Yet his hands that were on his bow were trembling and the flames in eyes socket were flickering as his soul was still trembling.
