The Primordial Tamer



The Fire Lions and Fire Wolves charged toward Atlas, their flaming claws and fangs gleaming in the light. The disciples watched with smug satisfaction. They were sure that they had the upper hand in the battle and that Orion would soon be defeated.

But as the beasts drew closer, Orion remained calm and composed. He stood his ground and assessed the situation, studying the movements of the approaching creatures with a steady gaze.

Suddenly, Orion's expression shifted, and he called out a command to his own beast. "Atlas, Crystal Spike," he said, his voice unwavering.

As Orion gave the command to Atlas, the Crystal Rhinoceros sprang into action. With a deafening roar, it reared up on its hind legs, its massive body glowing with a pulsating light. The disciples' beasts faltered in their attack, surprised by the sudden shift in momentum.

Then, the ground beneath Atlas erupted in a burst of crystal shards, and a spike of pure crystal shot up toward the sky. The spike was sharp and glinting in the firelight, and it towered above the clearing, dwarfing even the largest of the beasts.

The disciples watched in awe as the crystal spike erupted from the ground, its sharp edges glinting in the firelight. They had never seen anything like it before and were momentarily stunned.

However, as they snapped out of their daze, they quickly realized the danger that they were in. They remembered the devastating impact of the crystal spikes from earlier and knew that they had to avoid them at all costs.

The disciples quickly began shouting to each other, their voices filled with urgency. "All, avoid those spikes!" one yelled, while another cautioned, "Stay alert and keep moving!"

Their beasts, too, responded to the warning, their instincts kicking in as they darted away from the area where the crystal spike had emerged. The Fire Lions and Fire Wolves scrambled to avoid the deadly spikes, their movements agile and swift. They knew that one wrong move could mean the end of their lives.

Despite the chaos and confusion, Orion remained focused on the battle, watching closely as the disciples and their beasts evaded the crystal spikes. He knew that his victory depended on his ability to stay calm and outsmart his opponents.

As the last of the crystal spikes dissipated into the air, Orion seized the opportunity to strike. "Atlas, Crystal Charge!" he commanded, and the massive Crystal Rhinoceros charged forward with incredible force.

The disciples scrambled to evade the charging beast, their beasts leaping to the side as the Crystal Rhinoceros barreled through their ranks. Some managed to dodge out of the way, but others weren't so lucky.

The impact of the crystal charge sent several of the disciples and their beasts flying through the air, their bodies slamming into trees and rocks with bone-jarring force.

The remaining disciples and their beasts regrouped, their faces set in grim determination. They knew that they were up against a formidable opponent, but they refused to back down.

Suddenly, one of the disciples shouted out the command, "Fire Lions, Inferno Roar!" The Fire Lions responded immediately, releasing a deafening roar that reverberated through the clearing.

The shockwaves generated by the sound shook the ground and sent loose debris flying in all directions. Despite the intensity of the attack, Orion remained resolute, standing his ground and holding his own.

His face was calm and composed as he withstood the full force of the Inferno Roar. The disciples couldn't believe their eyes as they watched him emerge from the attack unscathed.

One of them couldn't help but express their disbelief, blurting out, "Impossible! How can you withstand it?" The rest of the disciples and their beasts regrouped, their faces set in grim determination. 

Orion couldn't help but laugh when one of the disciples asked him how he could withstand the Inferno Roar. He was surprised that they were unaware of his background. "Don't you know that I am from the Celestial Harmony Sect?" he asked with a smile. "In our sect, we not only train our minds and spirits but also our bodies to become stronger."

The disciples looked at each other in shock, realizing that they had underestimated their opponent. The Celestial Harmony Sect was known throughout the land for their rigorous training and the incredible strength of their disciples.

If Orion was a member of that sect, it explained how he was able to withstand the Inferno Roar with such ease. But they weren't ready to give up yet.

They had come too far to be defeated now. "We don't care where you're from," one of the disciples declared, his voice full of determination. "We will still defeat you and your beast!"

Orion just smiled, knowing that the disciples' determination was admirable. He also knew that they had no idea what they were up against. His training in the Celestial Harmony Sect had prepared him for battles like this. 

Orion then turned to Atlas, his Crystal Rhinoceros. "Finish this! Crystal Burst!" he ordered with confidence.

Without hesitation, Atlas began to charge up his energy, a bright and intense light emitting from his body as he gathered the crystal energy within him. The disciples were taken aback by the sheer power that was being accumulated in front of them.

As the energy reached its peak, Atlas let out a deafening roar and released a massive burst of crystal energy from his body. The energy shot out in all directions, shattering anything in its path and sending the disciples and their beasts flying backward.

The force of the Crystal Burst was so powerful that it created a large crater in the ground, and the surrounding trees were obliterated. The disciples lay on the ground, dazed and unable to move.

Orion approached them calmly, surveying the damage he had inflicted. He was relieved that the battle was over, but he also felt a tinge of sadness. He had hoped that the disciples would have put up more of a fight, but he understood that they were no match for him and Atlas.

As Orion looked around the battlefield, he noticed something strange. The disciples that he had defeated were nowhere to be seen. It was as if they had vanished into thin air. Perplexed, he scanned the area for any signs of their presence, but there was nothing.

He looked around, bewildered, wondering where they had disappeared to. Then he noticed that the amulet around their necks had shattered, and the pieces were scattered on the ground.

Realization dawned on him. The amulet was a gateway back to the outer world, and it seemed that it had broken upon impact from the Crystal Burst. The disciples were sent back, defeated and unable to continue their mission.
