Chapter 1696 - Diasho Ken (3) (1/2)

Diasho Ken's features contorted in rage, but the energy he wasted clenching his fist made it feel as though the whole world was spinning around him. He was far too weak, if he really collapsed in this danger zone, even if he could normally ignore its so-called danger with impunity, he would still die a hundred times over.

Rationality told him that he needed to leave, but his pride and arrogance got the best of him. How could he simply turn and leave? Even though no one had recorded what happened, the whole world would know after today that he, Diasho Ken, had released his Sword God's Harmony and still lost!

Communicating with one's ancestors as a sprite in order to release their battle form was something every sprite was incredibly s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e to. There was no doubt that every sprite not just on the lower tier, but even the higher tiers, had felt it the moment Diasho Ken went all out. If he had to leave in shame now, he would be humiliated!

Captain Diasho roared into the skies, ignoring the ramifications, he unleashed his battle form once more. His body flickered into and out of existence, but he could feel his soul tearing apart with every step he took toward Dyon.

This wasn't a battle he could afford to lose! If he ever wanted to catch up to his brother, if he wanted to protect the prestige of the Heavenly Sword Guild, he had to win!

Dyon turned back to see what looked like a streaking sword approaching him with blinding speeds.

His eyes flashed with a murderous intent. I allowed you to live yet you haven't accepted my act of kindness and have instead decided to foolishly attack me?!

Dyon's body turned into a resplendent gem. The blood shimmered upon his flawless skin, dripping downward as though his body had become frictionless.

Diasho Ken's attack was rebuffed. His body flew backward, but he lifted himself up and charged once more.

He wasn't a fool, he realized that Dyon was capable of reflecting what amounted to at least 50% of the power of his strikes. Every time he attacked, he was inflicting more and more damage to himself. But, he had practically lost himself in battle. His d.e.s.i.r.e to win fueled his everything.

Dyon's arrogant gaze was like a looming guillotine, lifting high above his prideful heart and preparing to cleave down at any moment.

Dyon became akin to an impenetrable wall, his sword attacks become swifter and swifter. His energy seemed endless to the point where it caused despair in his opponent.

How could Diasho Ken know that Dyon's energy reserves were multiple times that a normal celestial of his realm? Even without the Energy Core to constantly supply his inner world with more power, saying that he had 5 times the qi of Diasho Ken was an understatement!

Captain Diasho tried to enter his selfless Magic Swordsman state, trying to reach that realm of perfection and beauty he had before. But, he found it absolutely impossible.

At that moment, something incomparably shocking was happening.
