Chapter 128 - Differences In Strength (1/2)

After the energy swords have been formed, Austin slashes forward as the thousand swords that have formed in the air began to fall down on the grand elder who has a happy smile on his face as he begins to move in the air while destroying the energy swords one at a time meanwhile Jason has ready move from the area since he doesn't want to be caught in the clash as he waited patiently for the grand elder to leave an opening. After destroying about two-fifty energy swords, the grand elder retreated back to the ground where he let out a deep breath before pushing his palm forward while yelling and an invisible force went after the remaining energy swords.

”Now is my chance” said Jason with a smile on his face since the grand elder will have to maintain that stance if he wants the attack he is using to get rid of the energy swords.

Unfortunately for Jason, the grand elder was only faking it as the moment that Jason appeared behind him ready to punch him but before Jason could even move his fist forward, he felt a hot strike on his cheek as he was sent back.

”That old man is beginning to really annoy me” said Jason with grit teeth as he placed his hand on his cheek.

”Give it up kid, there is no way you will be able to beat the grand elder even if there were three of you facing off against him” advises the bracelet.

”Is he really that strong” asked Jason.

”Yes, I can even tell that he is holding back on his attack” replied the bracelet.

”Since he is holding back on his attack, I don't see a reason why I should do the same” commented Jason as he swings the halberd before dashing at the grand elder.

After hitting Jason back, the grand elder quickly gets rid of the energy swords without getting hit. Taking a step forward towards Austin who seems to be having a hard time breathing.

”I see you were able to comprehend the thousand swords cry to a level where you can make them look almost real” said the grand elder with a smile on his face.

”I am still far from doing the real thing” replied Austin with a disappointing look on his face.

”Oh do you mean this” said the grand elder as he waved his hand and the next thing they saw were thousands of swords hanging in the sky.

Jason who was going after the grand elder a moment ago, couldn't help but stop in his tracks and look at the swords with a terrifying look on his face.

”Do you think you will be able to survive against something like that” asked the bracelet.

”This attack is on another level compared to what Austin used to do, so how do you expect me to survive against it when I can barely fend off Austin's attack” replied Jason.

”Then now you understand what I mean when I say if there were to be three of you fighting, the results will still be the same” said the bracelet.

”He is really an old monster” said Jason with a bitter smile.

”Just be glad that he is not your enemy” replied the bracelet.

Seeing that both Jason and Austin were close, the grand elder let out a chuckle as he said.

”When you can manipulate your energy into making something like this, then you will be able to do this”. The grand elder made some hand movement and the swords split into two with one half facing Austin while the other half facing Jason.

”Only when you can finally complete the final stage of the technique will you be able to do something like this. Now let's end this sparring session with this attack” said the grand elder with a smile on his face before swinging his hand down as the swords begin to fall on both Jason and Austin.

”You have already proven to us that you are stronger and better so what is the need for you to attack us with something like this” complains Jason as he begins to push his energy to the limit as the lightning boot becomes brighter before he begins to run forward kicking one sword to another at an incredible speed.

”Haha, I did it for fun boy now let's see you dance” replied the grand elder with a laugh as he watched how they were going to counter the attack...

Seeing the swords coming at him, Austin let out a roar as he also summoned thousands of swords that look more inferior to the one that is coming at him. After the swords have materialized, he sends them out as they crash into the swords before fading away, and the more they crash into the swords, the more the swords lose their color.

After the whole energy swords has completely crashed into the swords, Austin discovered that it was not still enough for him to get rid of the swords and he has to send more at it until he completely destroys them but that came with a price which is him being drained completely of spiritual energy.

”Hmm, seems like he can only use the attack four times at most. Now let's see how that naughty kid is going to get rid of them” mutter the grand elder as he shifts his attention to Jason who was still going around destroying the swords and at the same time dodging the ones that are coming from behind.
