601: Prime Battle 2
As Alec swung his weapon, the blade burst into flames, with red and black flames swirling around the Changdao in a mesmerizing dance before completely engulfing the sword in a stunning dual blaze of black and red.
Meanwhile, Yama propelled himself off the ground, and with each rotation he conjured a whirl of mana around him.
But it was evident that the concentration of mana was strongest at his Naginata blade, which glowed with a radiant bluish light.
This luminous display showcased the immense concentration of raw mana energy infused within his weapon.
With a resounding bang, the two mages clashed their weapons once again, resulting in a shockwave that reverberated throughout the battle ring for an enduring two seconds.
Before the immense force of the impact compelled both Alec and Yama to recoil, as they swiftly retreated to different edges of the battleground.
While Yama executed an acrobatic summersault in mid-air, defying gravity to regain his balance, Alec, on the other hand, summoned long earth hands from beneath the ground, forcefully dragging himself back to the ground.
Frustration brewed within Yama as he marvelled at Alec’s seemingly limitless mana reserves.
He couldn’t fathom how Alec managed to keep up without displaying a hint of fatigue after fighting three mages simultaneously before him, he just felt something must be amiss.
‘ I can’t settle for another endurance match, I must bring this fight to a swift conclusion,’ Yama thought, determination blazing in his eyes.
In a split second, these thoughts raced through his mind, propelling him to dash forward again with unwavering determination.
Simultaneously, Alec surged towards Yama with incredible speed as they clashed in a flurry of movements all across the battle ring.
The audience stood in awe, jaws agape, witnessing the extraordinary collision of the intertwined black and red flames against Yama’s bluish light.
The rapid speed at which both mages maneuvered around the battle ring turned their figures into blurs of vibrant colours, observable even to lower-ranked mages.
Over time, a consensus formed among the onlookers that the bluish hue represented Yama, while the blend of red and black symbolized Alec.
And with each clash, a small spark ignited where their weapons intersected, adding an extra touch of intensity to the spectacle unfolding before their eyes.
On a few occasions, the crowd were able to witness as Alec and Yama’s weapons clashed against each other, and not just the colours,
Bang!
There was a resounding sound reverberated in the air as Alec’s command caused earth spikes to thrust from the ground, aimed at poking Yama but he was quick to retreat backwards.
However, Yama was not one to remain on the defensive.
Without hesitation, he gracefully swung his Naginata, then swiftly stored it behind his back.
And with a quick cast, he conjured a bow forged from mana, deftly drawing an arrow along its string.
A mana arrow materialized at the perfect moment, released towards Alec despite Yama still being on the evasive maneuver to dodge the protruding earth spikes.
The crowd watched with bated breath, anticipating the outcome as the arrow emitted a sleek sound while hurtling toward Alec.
Its astonishing speed rendered it nearly impossible for most people to keep track of.
In a surprising display of agility, Alec slightly tilted his neck, swiftly catching the arrow with his left hand just before it could hit him.
Preparing to retaliate, a plan to send the arrow flying back formed in Alec’s mind.
However, he had overlooked a crucial detail—the “arrow” was not a conventional projectile.
It was just a manifestation of Yama’s precise mana control, and he paid for this negligence
As Yama seized the opportunity, commanding,
“Explode!”
With a flick of his hand, Yama triggered the detonation of the mana arrow that Alec had caught.
The resulting explosion propelled Alec into the air, causing him to soar momentarily before gravity took hold.
As Alec, had utilized his control over gravity, swiftly descended back to the ground, landing with the same speed and force with which he had been airborne.
[> Mid Tier Skill – Fatal punches <]
Still recovering from the concussive blast of the arrow’s explosion, Alec was taken aback to find that Yama had invaded close meter to him using his heightened perception.
Yama had effectively breached his defensible zone, which Alec was keeping passively monitoring with his mental ability.
Alec attempted to put up a defence at the strike aimed at him, but Yama’s skill was too quick. freёnovelkiss.com
As a flurry of punches rained down on Alec’s chest and stomach, leaving him unable to defend against the onslaught.
As Yama finished the punch combo, he concluded with a powerful slap of his left palm against Alec’s chest, sending him flying through the air properly this time.
Alec’s body skidded along the ground, evoking a chorus of “Ohhh ho hou!” from the audience watching the intense match.
Alec raised his head to gaze at Yama more closely and noticed that Yama was shirtless now shirtless.
The upper defensive layer of his academy uniform had been discarded, revealing his bare chest.
But both of Yama’s hands were covered in a transparent golden energy, similar to mana, but also giving out another feeling.
However, this energy extended beyond covering only his hands, as it also enveloped his chest and gave him the appearance of a mage wearing a transparent armour and gauntlets.
[> Ki Transformation <]
Yama exclaimed the words, as a rhythmic beating sound emanated from his chest.
Slowly, Alec and the spectators watched in astonishment as the same transparent golden energy that covered Yama chest in an armour appeared and coated his entire body.
And it resembled a radiant, transparent golden flame, leaving even the experts in the VIP section taken aback.
As Yama’s hair began to flutter in the air, its tips transforming into a golden hue.
“Come on, boy, round two has just begun!
Let me show you the power of a Ki master,” Yama declared, shifting his legs and gesturing for Alec to come at him with two fingers before assuming a stance.
“Hmm, I see,” Alec responded.
“What do you see?” Yama countered.
“I have heard of Ki control, but I know for a fact that only martial path mages who have reached the high rank can effortlessly convert their mana into Ki without limitations,” Alec explained.
“The fact that you are resorting to this for a more explosive power is evident, you’re desperate, realizing that you can’t take me on under normal circumstances, nonetheless, I’ll accompany you,” Alec retorted, ready to face the intensified challenge Yama presented.
[> Red Salamander <]
Alec Gordons called upon the spirit equipment set that had faithfully followed him since his first blood moon war.
Although he hadn’t used it for some time, having outgrown its power, he now sought every advantage he could muster.
As he called on the spirit set, the tattooed markings of the spirit-armoured set, which had previously hidden beneath his flesh, reappeared, adorning his body before piece by piece of
The armour materialized, encasing Alec in its protective embrace, including the Gauntlet,
With a firm grip on the Bloody Changdao, Alec called upon his Blood Killing Intent, as he tilted his head back and his eyes tightly shut as he attempted to control his inner bloodlust.
“He looks just like Rae!” murmured the grand elder of the Blaze Clan, observing Alec’s hair transform into a pure shade of red, with the tips remaining black or brown.
The moment Alec summoned his Blood Killing Intent, the Changdao left his hands and began to levitate in the air, as everyone was now staring at the crimson hue of his hair.
At the sight of him now, thoughts of the Blaze Clan were inevitable, as only members of the clan possessed spiky blood-red hair.
However, those who knew Rae couldn’t help but feel as though they were witnessing a younger version of him.
Cause with Alec’s hair now mirroring that of a true Blaze Clansman, the striking resemblance between father and son could not be ignored.
