356 Alex Vs Charya II (1/2)

”Start!”

Alex and Charya instantly appeared in the middle of the area as their swords clashed with each other. Alex then thrust his spear against her, while Charya immediately activated her lightning element.

Charya immediately disappeared again from his sight. Alex did not panic as he could see her movement with his Spirit Eyes.

”Thunderous Claw!”

Her hand was covered with purple lightning. Alex only swung his sword to block her hand.

”Immovable Step!”

He tried to use all of his strength in this swing and pushed Charya's back.

Even Charya got surprised by this sudden strength, ”So, this is what you meant earlier. This is around 14 dragon strength. Strong, but with this power alone, you won't be able to defeat an elder like this.”

Alex frowned when he heard that. It seemed the effect of his Immovable Step only limited to 5 dragon strength.

Alex immediately took out twenty swords from his space ring. All of his swords immediately flew toward Charya.

However, it seemed Charya had been waiting for this. She saw these swords and grinned. She suddenly used her lightning to the maximum.

”This is a good technique indeed. But there is one flaw for this technique. Even though your Sword Domain is higher than me, the sword has no weight!” Charya said after she knocked Alex's sword away.

”!!!” Alex frowned when he saw Charya blow one of his swords away. When Alex tried to regain control of his sword, the sword was already out of range.

He used a sword that came from Zwaka's place, not his system. If he used the sword from the system, he could store back the sword and take it out again. But, if he used that technique, she might know Alex's had a space element.

Although Alex was sure that she knew he had a fire element, it was only a normal Fire Element since Alex was an Alchemist. However, his Space Element was different. All people who had seen his Space Element had died.

”Sword Rite.” Charya raised her sword before she disappeared once again. Charya only wanted to confirm that Alex's swords had that kind of flaw. After she confirmed it, she immediately knocked all of them away.

Alex tried to control his sword, but Charya had knocked all of them down. He did not continue to summon another sword since the result would be the same.

It was as Charya said. Even though he had covered his Sword with his Sharp Intent, the sword had no weight on it. After all, Alex controlled it with his Spiritual Energy.

It might be effective for an opponent that did not have that much strength like when the people he fought in the Inner Disciple Tournament. But for Martial Lords, this technique did not have that much effect.

He did not notice this since all his opponents never got the chance to best this technique… No, the people who died or defeated by this technique were Martial Grandmasters. Even in the war, he did not use it to fight the crown prince.

He thought he would not be able to use it any longer.

Charya then started attacking her with her Sword Rite. Alex had experienced this technique once, but as expected, each blow was heavy. Back then, she limited herself to 5-Star Martial Master, so Alex could barely keep up with her.

But Alex also had powered up. He continued to use his Immovable Step to counter her power. It was a kind of strength versus strength.

Alex was using his Silver Sovereign to counter her Sword Rite. Not only could the complex movement from Silver Sovereign could counter Charya's unpredictable movement, but he could also destroy any lightning that came to his way with the power from Silver Sovereign.

”Omnislash!” Alex then tried the normal way. In fact, this Martial Art was the base of that flying swords thing. Unlike the previous Martial Art, he could use Omnislash without any limit. After all, he could just summon another Sword if Charya managed to destroy his Omnislash.

Well, he just took the concept of the system's inventory optimization.

The swords were barraging Charya. Although Charya used her lightning as well as her sword to fend them off, it was a bit hard since Alex immediately summoned a new sword as soon as Charya destroyed a sword.

Charya got a bit annoyed with this situation. She shifted her sword a little bit before her sword projected a giant blade.

Alex recognized this Martial Art. It was Charya's Sun Beam. Although he did not use this Sword Art that much, he knew the power contained in this Sword Art was intense.

Charya was going to use this giant blade to destroy all of his Omnislash to gain some advantage. Alex would not let her do so. He also raised his sword. The same giant blade also projected from his sword as Alex swung his sword down.

His target was not Charya. Instead, he was targeting Charya's giant blade.

”Sun Beam!”

However, when their swords almost clashed, Charya smirked. ”Got you!”

Her giant sword suddenly disappeared, leaving Alex's giant sword clashing with air.

”!!!” Alex frowned as he realized he had been baited by Charya.

”Seven Stars Cut!” She was baiting him with Sun Beam. She knew Alex would try to stop her sword. If Alex decided to attack her when she used Sun Beam, she would dodge it first before destroying Alex's Omnislash.

However, Alex chose to attack her Sword, especially with the same technique. She only needed to undo it before destroying Alex's Omnislash with her Seven Stars Cut.

Charya used six layers Seven Stars Cut, and it seemed, she was only one step away from using the Seven Stars Cut to the fullest. As soon as she destroyed Alex's Omnislash, she immediately disappeared.
