The energy in Noah's spear was deadly as it corrupted all it touched, but its raw power was weak as almost all the energy of the Neo-Demon was in the Dark Moon World.

Aion, on the other hand, concentrated the full power of the Flow around his body, allowing his physical might to vastly surpass that of his opponent. And the mantle of golden light protected him from the corrosive energy that flooded the air.

Aion managed to send Noah flying away with a palm strike right into the chest, but before he could rise higher into the sky, he had to take care of the hands rising from the blood ocean and the spears descending from the heavens. 

His connection with The Flow allowed him to perceive the movements of the spears and bloody hands, but they were so many and coming from multiple directions, making dodging them impossible.

As for diverting them or using Redirection, that would only make things worse since Aion was sure Noah would transform them into white flames if he did that.

There was no other way, so he took a deep breath and used his hands to grasp the endless spider web that covered the universe and beyond before tightening his grip around it and making it rotate alongside his body. 

That defensive skill required a lot of energy and put tremendous pressure on Aion's body and soul, so he did not like using it unless it was absolutely necessary.

A revolving sphere of golden light formed around Aion, and just like the last time, it was able to shatter everything that came in contact with it, blocking all the attacks. 

Those spears and bloody hands were immensely powerful, but the absolute defense of Aion was something that required more than simple brute force to break, as it was formed by twisting The Flow.

That was why Aion was so shocked to see a small spear bathed in dark and white flames penetrate into the revolving spear.

The same dark and white flames that covered the weapon overflowed through Noah's body, hiding his movements from the all-encompassing perception of The Flow. 

Since The Flow could not see his attack when these were in a state of change, he would cover the inside of his body with that. That generated severe internal wounds but was worth it in Noah's mind, as it allowed him to take Aion by surprise.

Aion could see the power of the Daybreak Force inside the spear, acting and dissolving simultaneously, allowing a chaotic state that overcame its absolute defense.

The spear aimed at the center of his neck, but Aion was able to push it to the side, making it pierce his chest.

Noah knew it would have been too lucky for him to end the fight with that attack, but that was not his goal. He knew that The Flow would heal any physical wound on Aion, so he intended to seal the movements of this one so the bloody hands could do their work.

New hands emerged from the ocean of blood. They flashed toward Aion, intending to bring him into the siphon where he would be crushed to an atomic level, a level of destruction too great even for the regeneration powers of The Flow.

Noah was ready to use all his power to stop Aion from taking the spear out, but to his shock, the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage did not move back.

Aion grabbed the spear with his right hand, pushing it deeper and bringing along Noah before sending a punch with the left.

Noah's eyes widened as he felt that blow shatter all the bones on his face before sending him flying away, forcing him to let go of his spear.

And, as if that was not enough, Aion took the spear out of his chest and shot it toward his enemy. 

Noah had not yet regained control of his body when his own spear pierced into his chest and sent him crashing into the blood ocean.

Aion knew that attack would only give him a few seconds, so he did not lose time and flashed into the sky at full speed toward the Moon of Darkness that covered the firmament.

That was the core of the Dark Moon World, and if he shattered it, not only would he free himself of the nightmarish dimension, but also, the backlash would severely harm Noah's soul.

The dimension began to tremble as if it felt the danger in which it found itself. The number of pentagrams in the sky grew exponentially, and they no longer limited themselves to spears as nightmarish monsters emerged.

Aion had not a single wound on his body, but the truth was he was already near his limit. His energy and soul force were dangerously low, and he needed to end this fast, or else he would lose purely due to exhaustion.

The Neo-Demon closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them, a sense of absolute harmony emerged from his Primordial Essence. 

The people in the coliseum saw with awe and admiration how Aion rose into the sky, using the spears as platforms to propel his body forward and breaking apart all the nightmarish monsters that would appear on his path.

It was like a scene of a legendary saga of a hero shattering the darkness into his path as he rose into the sky!

Aion could not help but smile as he got closer and closer to the Moon of Darkness, as he felt a sense of thrill that he thought would not happen again.

The pressure and excitement of the battle made Aion's domain over The Flow improve by the second as pieces of his soul kept awakening, bringing forth experiences and dormant power. The golden light covering his figure grew stronger, and wings emerged on his back, making him resemble a divine warrior.

Nothing the Dark Moon World sent could stop Aion, and this one finally reached the highest sky. He clasped his hands and opened them the next second, revealing a lotus flower with thirty-three petals.

If someone were to focus on each of those petals, they would understand that they embody the fundamental connections that exist across the multiverse.

Like an eclipse was the embodiment of Daybreak Force, that lotus flower was the essence of Aion's path in The Flow. Only eight petals were lit up, but that was enough power to shatter the Moon of Darkness.

Aion sent the lotus into the Moon of Darkness, and everybody saw how that tiny flower began to crack open the mighty evil heavenly body.

Just as the lotus flower was about to break the core of the Dark Moon World, Noah rose from the ocean of blood. Silver flames practically overflowed the eyes of the young Neo-Demon as he raised his right palm before clenching it. 

Aion's eyes widened as he saw the Moon of Darkness about to self-destruct. 

Noah knew he could not stop the lotus flower, so he chose to make the Moon of Darkness explode on his own, making Aion pay a dire price.

"CRACK!"

The Moon of Darkness split apart, and total silence reigned momentarily before the entire battlefield exploded!

"BOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM!"

Dark flames covered every corner of the battlefield as the Dark Moon World exploded.

People in the coliseum and those watching on the virtual screens across the Daybreak Universe held their breath as they focused on Venganza.

The one that the Revenge Thearch brought out of the explosion first would be the loser, but to their surprise, this one did not act even as the flames were vanishing.

Just as they were wondering what was happening, the sound of fists clashing emerged from the arena.

Noah and Aion were in the center of the arena, punching each other. There was no more energy left in them, and they could not use Daybreak Force or The Flow for the time being due to the destruction of the moon and lotus, so they could only rely on their bodies.

There was not much strength behind their fist since both were beyond exhausted, and the only thing pushing them forward was their will to win.

No one made a sound, and total silence reigned in the coliseum as the people watching the fight felt pure admiration in their hearts for the two warriors pushing themselves beyond their limits.

Noah's eyes grew sharp, and a decisive light appeared in them as he pushed his body forward and connected an uppercut on Aion, making the brain of this one tremble.

That was Noah's chance, and using his last bit of strength, he sent a left punch that would grant him victory.

Aion's eyes had lost focus, and he could not respond to that attack, but then he heard two tiny voices.

"¡Dad!"

"Father!"

Due to the silence in the coliseum, the voices of Aion's children were able to reach the arena.

Aion's head moved to the right at the last second, dodging Noah's fist.

Noah could not believe that Aion could regain consciousness in a moment like that.

"Sorry, brat, but I can not lose in front of my kids."

That was the last thing Noah heard before Aion's counter pushed him into the ground and knocked him out.

"Aion of the Human Lineage is the winner!"
