Finally, under the constant urging of Ah Dai, it was the man in black who couldn’t bear it anymore. He slid forward suddenly, as if weightless, and charged toward Ah Dai. Ah Dai shouted loudly and swung a full-force Splitting Chop straight at him. The surrounding air seed to be sucked away by the sword, binding the man in black’s movents, forcing him to confront the attack head-on. Ah Dai felt that, compared to before, his Splitting Chop had inexplicably increased in power. In fact, after advancing to the fifth realm of the Liquid Life Essence, his powers had gradually strengthened, allowing his skills to improve unconsciously.
The man in black didn’t panic. The short blades in his hands flickered with a cold light. He slightly shifted his body, and both blades simultaneously struck the spine of the Tian Gang Sword. With two clinks, Ah Dai’s full-force strike was deflected aside, and two piercing streaks of True Qi climbed up the sword, aiming straight for Ah Dai’s sword-holding hands. Ah Dai now understood why Miao Fei’s Soft Sword had slipped from his hands earlier. He quickly forced the Liquid Life Essence in his body to his hands. Only through the constant rotation of the Essence could he barely neutralize those needle-like bursts of fighting spirit, but his hands had already grown sowhat numb.
Although the man in black successfully parried Ah Dai’s Heavy Sword, the sheer weight of the Tian Gang Sword combined with the trendous force generated by Ah Dai’s fighting spirit still forced him to step back. Without any hesitation, the man retreated and then advanced, his blades gleaming coldly as they slashed towards Ah Dai’s throat and chest, attacking like lightning.
At this critical mont of life and death, Ah Dai’s mind was extraordinarily clear. Barely shifting his body and channeling his power, he abruptly lifted the Tian Gang Sword, now stuck in the ground, to et the approaching short blades. The man in black snorted coldly and did not clash with Ah Dai directly anymore. With a flash, he vanished from in front of Ah Dai. Just as Ah Dai’s move was executed too late, a sudden sharp wind attacked him from behind. He had no ti to block and had to allow his body to fall forward. Just as his body was about to hit the ground, he struck the ground with his left palm and leveraged his body to fly forward, rolling to a distance of five ters before tumbling to the ground. Although he reacted very quickly, a searing pain still emanated from his back where the man in black’s short blades had left two long gashes. The sharp fighting spirit rampaged within him, causing Ah Dai’s body to convulse on the ground as he desperately used his fighting spirit to resist the invading True Qi.
Ah Dai had no ti to catch his breath; the sharp wind struck again. He knew that no matter what, he couldn’t dodge the opponent’s attacks anymore, and the shadow of death overwheld him. As the onlookers watched the man in black’s blades about to stab into Ah Dai’s back, they couldn’t help but cry out, but the man in black was too fast for anyone to intervene.
Suddenly, Ah Dai felt a warmth in his left hand, and a warm flow quickly spread throughout his body. Bolstered by this warm flow, his fighting spirit burst forth, swiftly expelling the sharp True Qi from his body. To the others, Ah Dai suddenly radiated a blinding white light. The man in black, who had intended to force Ah Dai into submission with his blades, hesitated as he saw this and imdiately slashed with his blades.
When the short blades made contact with the white light on Ah Dai’s body, it was as if they had struck leather. The light, tough and elastic, flared brightly, propelling the man in black backwards.
Ah Dai also suffered greatly. Although he did not understand where this warm flow had co from, the white light had blocked most of the attacks from the man in black. A sweetness surged in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Yan Shi and Yan Li rushed forward to help Ah Dai up. The man in black did not pursue them but stood quietly, breathing slightly.
Ah Dai leaned on his Tian Gang Sword to support his body and regulate the chaotic energy within, managing a weak smile. "Brothers, I’m alright."
Yan Shi sighed and said, "Forget it, brother. We did our best. The skills of these n in black are too formidable for us to handle."
The expression on Yan Li’s face was grim as he sighed, "Even if we all attacked together, it might not work. It seems there is always soone better. The Elf Clan is dood."
Ah Dai suddenly yelled, "No, we can’t let them take the Elves." He glared at the man in black and said, "I have not lost yet. Let’s continue, brothers, you go back."
Yan Shi and Yan Li, looking at Ah Dai’s resolute eyes, felt sowhat ashad and lowered their heads. They had already considered giving up just monts before. Yan Li suddenly raised his head and said, "Let’s fight with all we have. Together, we might still have a chance."
Ah Dai shook his head and said, "No, they are too many. Let’s continue the contest by the rules; I might not lose. Brother, you step back." After speaking, Ah Dai staggered toward the man in black.
The man in black watched Ah Dai coldly. When Ah Dai stopped three ters away from him, he forcefully planted the Tian Gang Sword into the ground. The man in black spoke coldly, "You are not my match. Send soone else."
Ah Dai shook his head and replied, "Maybe not." He reached for the Dragon’s Blood around his neck, clutched it in his palm, and whispered the spell Xuan Yue had taught him, "Great King of the Dragon Clan! Please lend your endless Divine Power to form an unbreakable shield and defend the honor of the dragons." Having said this, he then turned his back on the man in black and stretched out his hands towards Yan Shi and the others. A brilliant white light suddenly surged, and the man in black, baffled and amazed, stepped back several paces. He couldn’t understand why this young man possessed so many unusual attributes.
