Chapter 138 Red & White Tornado
The off-white qi surged out of his body as he dashed towards Salom. At that time, some figures appeared in his mind, he laughed bitterly and mumbled. "Heh, Lucky Bastards."
Those figures were John Stark, Farrie Holaleth, Leomond Tigerian and Akkar Boldheart. These figures chose the side of Ezra in the Spirity Bailiwick.
All of a sudden, in Salom's mind, Ezra's image grew from a thorny pebble to a majestic mountain.
He unleashed his scarlet qi and bolted out to meet the incoming attacker.
From one side, Zulfi Dimitry held the Paladin's Pledge and marched like a shining knight, his off-white qi made him look like a hero under the light of the full moon.
To his opposite, wielder of Soul Slicing Sword, Salom Uqually darted towards his opponent like a bloodthirsty warrior. The scarlet qi gave him an image of a bloodied killer carrying the flames of a burning sun.
Both powerful geniuses who could be friends but turned into enemies finally reached the centre of the ring.
~CLLLAAAAAANNNNNG~
A loud metallic sound resounded, and the berserk qi of both fluttered and produced a tornado. A giant tornado of scarlet-red and off-white qi grew wider and wider.
A myriad of sword-clashing noises could be heard from within. In the Fair Sword of Humanity, John Stark couldn't help and look at the side of the 5th ring with a side-eye. After all, he was a sword fanatic, his love and thirst for swords far exceeded that of the two swordsmen who were battling.
Inside the tornado of red and white qi, two figures continuously launched attack after attack, up until now none of the battles looked as extreme as the one happening on the 5th ring.
Carlo Aur easily killed Baron and Theor was able to overpower Emily after spending some effort.
John Stark's opponent was on a defensive battle, his main focus was to keep John at bay till he exhaust his spiritual energy.
Farrie and Reema's 4th ring was covered in mist, the acidic mana of Blue Haired upper realm invader and nature-attributed mana of Elfpatria's Enchanter produced extreme mist inside the ring after the exchange of spells. No one knew what was happening inside.
Shifa and Ixtal had huge and powerful blows in command to land at each other but none of the duo unleashed their full strength.
<Inside The Tornado>
Zulfi's sword was merged with an off-white coloured hue and Salom's sword engulfed itself in scarlet flames like qi.
~CLLAAANG - CLAANNG~
Each strike emitted a spectacular effect, Zulfi moved like a noble swordsman, and every move he made was calculated and precise.
Salom seemed more like an instinctual fighter who took each step by his instincts.
The genius of the Uqually clan made a full swing at Zulfi's left, packed with powerful qi. Zulfi blocked the attack, his whitish qi fought back the scarlet flames.
The martial master of Bloodfang slid his right foot, gave some space to his arm joints and with a well-calculated way swung the sword in crescent.
The blow of Salom was carried from the left of Zulfi to his right and struck the air, he successfully parried the attack of Salom.
The balanced went off and Salom found himself in trouble, seeing the only chance, the same type of attack was attempted by Zulfi.
With a huge swing at Salom's open left side, it was impossible for current Salom to block the attack with his sword. Just when the sword was about to reach, he let go of Soul Slicing Sword and tilted towards his right side. He made a round flip and dodged the sword by hair's breadth.
"Haha, very impressive." Uttered Salom as he extended his sword, the Soul Slicing Sword came back to his hand.
Zulfi replied with a smile."You almost got me, that strike had a lot of power, parrying it was the only option I had."
"Let's not waste each other's time." Said Salom as he jumped backwards.
"Come, Suroilimua!" Just when Salom murmured it, a giant figure came out from his body.
~BUUURRRRRRR~
Flames fluttered madly, it was a strange thing, The martial spirit of Salom didn't have a body, it was just an embodiment of scarlet flames.
6 orbs appeared and rotated behind the back of Salom Uqually.
"Let's attack, one simple strike. With no skill and no dodges or parries, let's hit each other with a single and final bout. The one whose sword shatters first dies." Said Salom as he smirked, but this time, his smirk wasn't evil.
The smile on Zulfi's face vanished, and he closed his eyes. "Come out, Marshal Knight."
~VOOOOOOOMMM~
A human frame appeared, its entire body was covered in beautiful and well-designed armour. The helmet was unique and made in a way that not even the eyes of that martial spirit could be seen.
The blinding light that the martial spirit of Zulfi emitted was beyond any definition, it felt as if this martial spirit belonged to an ancient era and its strength has decayed by hundred folds.
For those who were witnessing from outside, the storm was expanding more and more, it already covered the 300 radius meter.
Both swordsmen moved, fast as lightning.
~BHOKAAAAANG~
A strange and destructive sound of clash echoed Paladin's Pledge vs Soul Slicing Sword, two special tier swords against each other.
Both wielders poured every bit of strength and qi into the bout, the tornado was enlarging at an alarming rate.
Now, the blood-lusting pair of two women in the 4th Ring looked at the strange and powerful tornado.
Ezra Zephyr, John Stark, Karl and every other were forced to look at the abnormal changes in the 5th ring.
400, 550, 720, 1000. The tornado reached a 1-kilometre radius.
~BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM~
A humongous explosion and the tornado dispersed within the blink of an eye.
A man in off-white armour stood at the centre, in front of him was a half-broken sword and a torso less body.
*haahh hahh hoohhh* that man panted like a horse who had run for a whole day in a burning desert.
He sheathed his sword and turned his head towards the 8th ring where Ezrs Zephyr was located.
~THIINNG - THING - TING~
The other half of the Soul Slicing Sword fell from the sky, just when the sound of the fallen sword ended.
~BAANNNG~
The torso of Salom Uqually fell on the ground as well. Zulfi's eyes widened when he saw the face of the man he killed, the genius of the Uqually clan had a satisfied smile on his face.
