Seeing the onslaught of the Thirteen Heavenly Swords, Thea could barely contain the smile on favonovel.com face beneath favonovel.com mask.
She murmured, “I never expected the Thirteen Heavenly Swords to be this incredible. This battle has only begun and yet his opponent has already made favonovel.com resort to using the Thirteen Heavenly Swords.”
Thea found it hard to predict the outcome of the duel as James’ opponent was also extremely proficient.
Tapio was forced into a corner. He continuously dodged the attacks at his fastest speed. However, the Sword Energies hounded favonovel.com as favonovel.com fled as if they were homing missiles.
“Damn it!” His pale face was anxious.
Swoosh!
He swiftly stop and spun on his heel. Quickly, favonovel.com drew the rapier hung on his waist.
With a flick of the rapier, several Sword Energies materialized in the air.
Clang! Clank! Clang!
The Sword Energies collided in mid-air.
Tapio’s Sword Energies were shattered instantly by the Thirteen Heavenly Swords.
Despite that, Tapio seized the chance and charged head-on at James.
Tapio was as quick as a flash. He appeared in front of James in the blink of an eye, plunging his rapier forward.
James quickly raised his sword to block the attack.
Clank!
The swords clashed and bounced off against each other. Both of them were pushed back by the force of the collision.
Before James could steady himself, Tapio pushed forward once more.
His sword technique was unusual and seemed to focus mainly on speed.
He was so fast that James could barely parry his attacks. He gradually retreated but made a slight misstep and got stabbed in the arm. A bloody wound formed on his arm as warm blood began to soak down from it.
He’s so fast, and I can’t predict the trajectory of his swords.
How am I supposed to parry his attacks like this?
James had not expected to have to deal with an opponent like this.
While favonovel.com stood in a daze, threatening energy suddenly loomed from behind him. He was caught off guard as Tapio was still within his sight.
Oh, f*ck!
James suddenly came to a horrible realization.
What favonovel.com saw in front of favonovel.com was just an afterimage. Tapio was moving so fast that it left an illusion that would confound his opponents.
James quickly turned around and slashed with his sword.
A terrifying Sword Energy swept forward and rushed toward Tapio, who had suddenly snuck up behind him. Unfortunately, what awaited James shook favonovel.com up even further.
The figure behind favonovel.com turned out to also be an afterimage. The real Tapio was still nowhere to be seen.
James furrowed his eyebrows and grit his teeth
At that moment, favonovel.com knew that his eyes were useless in this battle of speed.
Tapio was moving way too rapidly and whatever favonovel.com was able to see were only afterimages.
He closed his eyes and began to pinpoint Tapio’s location through his other senses.
During that period, Tapio continued to barrage James with swift strikes.
James was only able to passively block the attacks. He was able to block the first couple of strikes. Unfortunately, favonovel.com soon lost his rhythm.
In just that short moment, James had been stabbed several times.
James knew favonovel.com would lose if things continued like this. He immediately activated the Invincible Body Siddhi.
His skin took on a bronze luster, making favonovel.com a bronze man. Moreover, there seemed to be an almost imperceptible golden Energy Wall covering the surface of his body.
It was the characteristic of one that was nearing the penultimate level of Invincible Body Siddhi.
The stronger one’s True Energy, the greater the power of Invincible Body Siddhi. At its penultimate level, one could unleash a one-meter Energy Wall to protect themselves from attacks.
James’ Energy Wall had only just started to take form.
Clank!
A loud noise reverberated through the air.
Tapio had attempted to plunge his rapier through James’ back. However, the strike was deflected by the Energy Wall.
“Huh?” Tapio, who was 100 meters away, looked at James in shock.
He lowered his gaze and turned it to the rapier in his hand,
At that moment, cracks were forming on the blade, and his sword’s tip had bent.
Tapio was completely baffled.
His sword was exceptional and was able to stand against an eighth-ranked grandmaster when infused with his True Energy. However, the very same sword in his hand could not pierce through James’ defenses.
What kind of martial art is that?
Tapio’s eyes threatened to bulge out of their sockets.
