Author's note : Sorry I didn't post the last few days, my pc broke so I had to borrow one from a friend. There will be another chapter in two hours, more or less. Enjoy.
*****
Katrina wanted to chase after Arthur but the timely intervention of Midolf and Radolf rendered her unable to focus on them and ignore the main opponent for a bit.
Actually, the Matriarch thought that Arthur was planning to search for Lucy and save her first before dealing with the clan but that couldn't be more wrong. He knew that Lucy was safe and he has no doubts that he'll save her, what's more urgent is the White Specter Clan, which needs to be obliterated.
For that reason, he bypassed all the enemies, including Katrina, and dived underground, heading directly toward the residential area of the clan. He was planning to destroy this place and cause it to crumble with the use of Atomic Bombs created by his Lost Magic and the assistance of the Quad-Spirit.
There is a strong protective formation laid around the clan, protecting from all sides like a dome but penetrating through it or breaking it isn't a difficult feat for Arthur, who possessed ancient formation masters who were well-versed in this kind of field.
Furthermore, he has the Demonic Lightning, a special power that has a high chance of shattering arrays, formations, and illusions. Were he still in possession of the eye, it would've been much easier to breakthrough.
A large shark made of spiky blackened bone drilled through the soft ground until it was met with a semi-transparent white wall. The frontal tip of the bone shark started crackling with black lightning and after a few seconds, a thick thunderbolt was unleashed, violently hitting the transparent wall.
Unfortunately, it did no damage and didn't even crack the barrier, nevertheless, Arthur didn't give up and started banging the sharp tip of his body onto the barrier while wielding the black lightning and continuously striking the formation.
He could feel violent tremors occurring every now and then, probably due to the destructive fight between the two mythical beings and Katrina, who was still locking her sense on Arthur.
One minute later, Arthur managed to successfully create a hole into the semi-transparent wall. He immediately left his current body and started drawing strange rune then pushed them into the hole, stopping its rapid contraction.

Slowly but surely, the runes started expanding the hole which quickly became big enough to pass through. Without hesitation, Arthur entered it and retrieved the large-sized Atomic Bombs he previously prepared.
"You know what to do."-Arthur
"Yes, Master, I'm on it."
The Quad-spirit left his consciousness and began its preparation. The Atomic Bombs maybe be feared and destructive on Earth, however, their damage is minimal in a high-realm such as the Divine Planet. Nonetheless, that doesn't mean they're completely useless.
They don't rely on any kind of energy so they cannot be negated by traditional means, plus, the quad-spirit will make sure the whole area will fall into a bottomless abyss.
Even if Arthur's army were to lose, at least he would have demolished this place and got rid of their precious home. Very soon, using the ARK's calculative abilities, he started planting the atomic bombs in strategic locations while the quad-spirit flew straight at the largest Pagoda and started acting.
*****
Above the crazily fighting specters and undead, Katrina was pissed as she was relentlessly attacked by Radolf and Midolf, who didn't let her breathe for even a second. What made things worse were the Divine Beasts, which, despite their weak attacks, are still dangerous if one were to ignore their perfect coordination.
A thick fog made of blood covered the skies and blocked Katrina's view, Radolf's black flames spread across all direction, surrounding the Matriarch.
Midolf was the aggressive type, choosing to go all-out to trap Katrina and buy some time for Arthur, who should be done really soon.
"Stop it, while I'm still asking nicely."
Katrina floated at the center of this dense fog and spoke with a cold voice while glaring at the double-headed lizard, which was silently looking back at her while opening both of its mouths.
"Thy actions contradict thy words, mortal."
Radolf seemed unfazed by the thick killing intent revolving around the white specter, who frowned upon hearing his words.
"Yeah bitch! You can't do shit to us!"-Midolf
What the roc said was actually true, unless she gets rid of them both simultaneously, she'll never defeat them no matter how strong she is. Being a create born from Life Energy, Midolf's recovery ability is unmatched, better even than a Phoenix. As for Radolf, he can control Death, so if they join hands, they can support themselves and recover from any wounds in a matter of seconds.

The illusory tail behind Katrina and the phantom shadow above her head became more realistic, causing her aura to drastically increase. For the first time since this war started, Katrina was about to get serious.
Her eyes became white and an ear-deafening screech reverberated across the whole battlefield, causing all the other specter to follow her actions. Her scream was akin to a banshee's, powerful and soul-shaking. Much of the blood-red fog was dispersed for a second before it started clustering around the Matriarch again.
All the other disciples and elders who heard her scream transformed too, unleashing a continuous streak of screeches. Though they were doing fine despite their lower number, the white specter still lost a considerable amount of soldiers, however, when they awakened, their strength was boosted and caused them to slowly start pushing the incoming undead. They started obliterating the skeletons left and right so Aborak had to change tactic, choosing to deploy the special blood skeletons that were physically enhanced by none other than Radolf.
These skeletons were quietly sitting in the back and awaiting for their turn, so, when Aborak's cane hit the ground and signaled them, they unsheathed their weapons and charged at the enemies. All the other undead opened a path for this battalion of strange-looking skeletons.
There were around 2.8 million blood skeletons and they were all clad in a blood-red heavy armor and wielded large black shields and long lances. Moreover, some of these skeletons were riding special sturdy steeds that spat Radolf eternal black flames though only in small quantities.
******
Around the center of the undead army, the fishmen were still struggling against the elemental zombies, which were endlessly striking the enemy, not leaving them a second to take a breather or counter-attack.
Aborak marvelously controlled these zombies and made great use of them, managing to kill one of the four fishmen. In addition to the humongous flaming zombie which sprung from the ground, two more equally threatening zombies made their appearance. One was covered in sticky mud and the other was wearing a golden armor. The three zombies bombarded the fishmen and used all kinds of abilities while the flying exploding zombies were still falling from above.
As long as the zombies successfully get rid of all the fishmen, they would have finished their job so Aborak didn't hold back and went all out.
Meanwhile, the fight between the Four Divine Beasts and the elders grew fiercer and bloodier. In fact, at some point, there was an explosion which alerted everyone, including Arthur and Katrina.
It was followed by a blinding light that momentarily halted all the fights and scared the white specters. Upon a closer look, a miniature red sun appeared in the sky but it only lasted for a second before it exploded into a sea of flames which engulfed two elders, turning them into ash in a matter of seconds.
One additional elder was hit by this attack but managed to successfully escape death and just when he was about to breath a sigh of relief, a large flying bird covered in flames descended on him and used its sharp claws to slash at him.
Fortunately, the head of elders, who was an old man called Talos, intervened just in time and clashed with the bird. The old man wielded a lengthy jet black spear which was swept at the assailant's claws, breaking half of them and pushing the Divine Beast away.
A white shadow appear next to the bird and opened its mouth, spitting acid on Talos, who used the white specter flames to push the incoming liquid then he made use of spear techniques to slash the empty air before him, strangely causing a large bloody hole to appear on the White Tiger, which madly roared and vanished from its spot, choosing to retreat.
Before Talos could give chase, an irresistible gravitational force causing his body to become unstable and plummet a few meters toward the ground then he suddenly found himself in an empty icy field. Obviously, Talos knew he was trapped inside a very realistic illusion so he tightly grasped his spear and stabbed the frozen ground, causing black threads to come out of the spear's tip and slowly shatter this false reality.
