The pillar rammed the hilt of its hammer into the ground and quickly scurried under it.
BOOOM!
The ball of misty lightning arrived and washed over the gigantic hammer, traveling into the ground. The remaining lightning continued like a stream of water, moving past the hammer and the pillar.
The Demon changed its tactics and launched another ball, but this time, it diagonally aimed towards the ground. The lightning would continue moving on the ground, avoiding the hammer.
In response, the pillar pushed the hammer over and crouched behind the massive hammerhead. The lightning washed over the hammer, missing the pillar behind it.
If the hammer were just made of Minor Metal, the pillar would still be hit by some stray lightning bolts, which would cause devastating injuries. However, the hammer was made of Gravity Metal, and its gravitational properties did wonders when it came to absorbing Minor Lightning.
If the Demon used Gravity Lightning, the pillar would be helpless. However, if the Demon could do that, it wouldn't be in a Law Well for Gravity Lightning to begin with.
Seeing how its offense had failed yet again, the Demon gathered its Energy and launched two balls at the same time, aimed in opposite directions. One would come from the left, while the other would come from the right.
CRKCRKCRK!
In response, the pillar's many legs shuffled on the ground, grabbing stones and earth before throwing them into the large maw below its base. In an instant, the pillar shot into the ground as the hammerhead blocked the entrance to its hole.
The lightning washed over the surface, eventually hitting the hammerhead. Of course, the lightning also moved through the ground itself. Some of these lightning bolts hit the pillar, but the ground and the gravitational properties of the hammer reduced their power so much that the pillar only lost 10% of its Biological Energy.
When the lightning vanished, the hammer was carried to the surface again, and the pillar assumed its old position.
The Demon launched a barrage of mixed attacks, but one way or another, the pillar managed to deal with them.
The Demon became desperate. Divine Beasts fled from battle extremely rarely. Yet, it was also running out of ideas. Nothing worked.
So, it decided to come closer, reducing the distance to 200 kilometers.
It continued launching its barrage of attacks, and this time, the pillar had obvious difficulties when it came to dealing with them. Its movements became more hasty and more chaotic.
Yet, the pillar was still regenerating more Biological Energy than it was using.
After more barrages, the Demon got even closer, reducing the distance to 150 kilometers. The pillar was ten kilometers long. As long as the Demon didn't enter that range, the pillar wouldn't be able to hit it.
The Demon continued attacking, but this time, the pillar directly burrowed into the ground. The area attacks were blocked by the hammer. However, the focused attacks created long tunnels of ash as they burrowed into the ground, moving past the hammerhead.
Underground, the pillar swung back and forth, using the hammer as a stable hold.
The focused attacks barely missed the pillar every time, while the area attacks only injured it slightly.
After some time, the Demon stopped attacking to survey the situation.
At that moment, the hammerhead wiggled back and forth a bit on the surface.
For some reason, the Demon felt this act to be insulting.
Realizing that it needed to get closer, the Demon flew-
BOOOOOM!
The hammer and the pillar suddenly shot out of the ground at impressive speeds. On the pillar's base, a violent flame propelled it forward like a missile.
The Demon hadn't expected such an attack, but it was still faster than the pillar. It angled its body and moved to the side.
At that moment, the pillar's flesh and blood vanished, replaced with Elemental Energies. Simultaneously, the pillar compressed like a spring, and the hammer angled to the side.
BANG!
The pillar uncoiled, releasing all of its accumulated power. In a violent reversal, the pillar suddenly shot downwards instead of upwards.
BOOOOOOOOM!
At the same time, an apocalyptic explosion of Elemental Energies occurred below the hammerhead. The physical power of the pillar and the explosion accelerated the hammer to incredible speeds.
