Chapter 268 Wang Jian Vs Voidblade
Wang Jian unleashed his full power, channeling the pure Yang essence of his Solar Flames and tapping into the potent Yin attribute of his Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Bloodline. Employing the Shadowmeld technique, he cloaked himself within the shadows, ready to strike at Voidblade from concealed positions. .t
Initially, Wang Jian’s tactic caught Voidblade off guard, but the cunning opponent swiftly devised a countermeasure. With a swift motion of his Holy Sword, he bathed the entire Spatial Cube in a radiant light, dispelling Wang Jian’s Shadowmeld and exposing him.
Voidblade wasted no time and swiftly attacked, wielding his other Devil Sword to launch a barrage of slashes. Accompanied by the manipulation of Spatial Element, the slashes emerged from angles that seemingly left Wang Jian no room for evasion.
Undeterred, Wang Jian summoned the blazing power of the Solar Flames, enveloping his body in a fierce inferno. The sword slashes coming his way were instantly consumed by the searing flames, leaving no trace of their existence.
Voidblade wore a confident smirk as he observed Wang Jian’s defenses, “Impressive display, Wang Jian. You’ve proven your mettle even though I prepared for your abilities. But can you do more than defend yourself? How long can you keep this up?”
Wang Jian maintained a stoic silence, acknowledging the truth in Voidblade’s words. So far, he had been reacting, countering, and defending, but he knew he had to seize the initiative somehow.
With every attempt to approach Voidblade for an attack, Wang Jian felt as though his movements were anticipated. Voidblade’s perceptive eyes seemed to track him, making it challenging for Wang Jian to close in for a decisive strike.
And when Wang Jian launched frontal assaults, Voidblade’s swords demonstrated their mastery, effortlessly nullifying the power of Laws within the attacks.
As Wang Jian continued his relentless assault on Voidblade, he couldn’t help but notice that every time he employed his Spatial Movement technique, his opponent effortlessly anticipated his position. It became evident that Voidblade possessed a higher degree of Insights in Spatial Laws compared to his own.
Undeterred, Wang Jian kept up his attacks, all the while taunting Voidblade, “Knowing my abilities won’t guarantee your victory. There must be some gimmick with your system. I’ve set up traps all around you, ready to unleash a barrage of attacks. Miss even one, and you’ll be gravely injured.”
Voidblade surveyed his surroundings and, true to Wang Jian’s words, saw a dark string made of pure Yin Energy extending from Wang Jian’s hands. This ominous string connected to six different points surrounding Voidblade, each poised to unleash a powerful attack. One point held a blazing fireball of Solar Flames, another had multiple wind blades, the third held a mighty lightning bolt, the fourth summoned Earth Vines, the fifth brimmed with icy shards, and the sixth contained the lethal Moon Flash attack.
Without hesitation, Wang Jian yanked the dark string, setting all these attacks in motion, converging on Voidblade in a simultaneous assault. The Moon Flash and the Lightning Bolt attacks were particularly swift, harnessing contrasting Yin and Yang Elements to create a devastating combination.
Wang Jian had cunningly designed this array of attacks, aiming to ensure that even one strike on Voidblade would spell the end of the battle.
However, to his surprise, Voidblade wore a smile as he faced the oncoming storm. Raising both of his swords, he unleashed powerful beams that obliterated the incoming attacks with ease.
This was none other than the nullification beam!
With a grin, Voidblade quipped, “Did you think I couldn’t use this nullification technique from a distance? Well, you thought wrong.”
However, as he spoke, Voidblade’s eyes widened, and he swiftly moved back, narrowly evading Wang Jian’s lethal blow aimed at slicing off his head. Wang Jian had encased his hand with Solar Flames, transforming it into a blazing blade, attempting to catch Voidblade off guard.
“Damn! And I was just a second too late!” Wang Jian cursed his near miss.
Voidblade, now impressed by Wang Jian’s strategy, spoke with a hint of respect and awe, “I see. You discovered that I can’t utilize my Spatial Element while employing the nullification ability. So, you set up those attacks, hoping I would resort to the swords’ nullification, allowing you to employ your Spatial Movement technique for a sneak attack. Unfortunately for you, I sensed your disappearance and realized your intent. If I were even a second late, that would have been my end.”
With a serious expression, Voidblade continued, “You are truly a powerful warrior. It’s a pity that you are a completely depraved and wretched man who must be killed at all costs.”
Curious and serious, Wang Jian asked, “You seem to know a lot about me and my actions. I won’t deny your claims, but I wonder how you knew all of this?”
Voidblade responded casually, “My system provided me with all the reasons why you should be slaughtered! You have committed heinous acts, raping over a dozen women, engaging in adultery with the mothers of your women, and manipulating many women into hating their loved ones who possessed noble hearts. You are a vile vermin who deserves to suffer greatly for your crimes!”
As Wang Jian listened to Voidblade’s explanation, his curiosity was piqued. He hadn’t imagined that his adversary’s system could provide such comprehensive information. His own system lacked that level of detail.
Voidblade continued, “My system revealed that you possess a wicked system that rewards you for committing evil deeds, which would ultimately lead to the destruction of this realm. On the other hand, my system is designed to provide me with complete information about my targets and equip me with abilities or artifacts to take them down. These twin swords are also bestowed by my system. But here’s the interesting part: originally, I received only a single sword.”
Wang Jian’s eyes widened in astonishment as he absorbed this revelation. Without warning, Voidblade’s Twin Holy and Devil Swords began to merge, emitting radiant white and black lights, respectively.
The fusion of the two swords was a sight to behold. The combined power of Holy and Devil attributes seemed to create an otherworldly energy that enveloped Voidblade, enhancing his already formidable prowess.
Wang Jian couldn’t contain his curiosity and blurted out, “What kind of power is that?”
Voidblade’s smirk widened, “The power of duality!”
As the energy from the Yin-Yang Sword surrounded Wang Jian, he felt an overwhelming suppression that seemed to freeze him in place.
Voidblade continued, “Using the fused version of this sword takes a toll on me, so I prefer not to start with it. But you, Wang Jian, have proven to be a worthy adversary. I can sense that I would be severely injured or even meet my end if I continue this fight without unleashing the full power of this blade.”
With his own version of Spatial Movement, Voidblade effortlessly teleported behind Wang Jian, launching a perfect ambush attack.
Wang Jian responded swiftly, summoning Solar Flames around his body to defend against the assault.
However, the suppression of elements from the Yin-Yang Sword forced him to dodge with all his might, narrowly avoiding a fatal strike.
Still, the sword grazed his back, cutting through bones and causing excruciating pain.
The sensation of powerlessness spread through his body as he lost connection to the laws of elements around him.
Yet, amidst the pain and vulnerability, Wang Jian recognized a glimmer of opportunity—he could still harness his pure qi.
Dispelling his demonic form, Wang Jian’s hair returned to silver, and his eyes reverted to blue.
He had understood the extreme danger posed by Voidblade’s fused sword to his demonic attributes. It could both suppress and nullify his demonic essence, making it four times as deadly.
Thus, Wang Jian made the tough decision to confront the suppression by returning to his normal form.
In this state, his physical attributes, such as strength, agility, and dexterity, were significantly weakened, but he saw it as a necessary sacrifice to evade the deadly effects of the Yin-Yang Sword.
Unfortunately, Voidblade showed no signs of relenting. He continued to unleash a relentless flurry of attacks at Wang Jian.
With no other choice, Wang Jian relied on his Spiritual Sensitivity to barely evade the onslaught of slashes coming from the Yin-Yang Sword. His body sustained countless injuries, blood flowing from the numerous cuts inflicted upon him.
As Wang Jian continued to improve his dodging skills, Voidblade decided to up the ante. He combined his spatial abilities, swiftly moving around and launching multiple beams at Wang Jian from different angles, intending to erase him completely.
However, Wang Jian responded quickly, using his pure qi to create a protective barrier around his body, deflecting the incoming beams.
Through enduring the relentless onslaught and utilizing his Spiritual Sensitivity, Wang Jian began to grasp an important insight about the fused Yin-Yang Sword. He recognized the three types of attacks his opponent could wield with this formidable weapon.
The first type was the Yin attack, the second the Yang attack, and the most troublesome of all was the nullification type.
This deadly ability seemed to sever the connection between the laws and the qi, rendering them powerless.
While the first two attacks posed manageable threats that Wang Jian could counter with the appropriate elements, the nullification attack was a dire challenge.
Yet, enduring the relentless blows had unveiled a weakness in this technique.
Wang Jian realized that the only way to deflect the nullification ability was by using pure qi.
Although he couldn’t entirely neutralize it, he could redirect its power away from himself.
By carefully controlling his qi, he managed to make contact with the qi infused in the nullification ability, skillfully redirecting it, and preserving his life.
Unfortunately for Wang Jian that by the time he had prepared his countermeasure, his body was on the verge of breaking down.
Voidblade stared at Wang Jian and let out a relieved sigh, ‘This is finally over.’
However, Voidblade failed to see a faint smirk on Wang Jian’s face as he saw the incoming strike.
