The man’s chest tightened. He barely managed to stabilise himself and stop himself from turning anymore rounds in the air. Wiping off the blood from his lips, he turned to face Shen Ying and said, “You really are quite capable.” He had been negligent. “But…” His face split into a grin once again. As long as she took action, she was bound to lose. Then, his body swayed and he disappeared into thin air.
A moment later.
A power that did not lose to Shen Ying’s charged at her. It brought with it a sense of destruction. The surroundings turned dark It was almost as if the chaos in the air sensed danger and knew to retreat. The man’s voice sounded all around her. “I’ll let you see what it means to be a true judge.”
The moment he finished speaking, the power engulfed Shen Ying and spun around her, closing in by the second. With each round, the power in Shen Ying’s body lessened by a fraction.
He was absorbing all her powers!
“Hahaha… Your powers are mine now! I’m the only judge here!” The man’s voice sounded increasingly arrogant. The invisible force tightened around her. There was not much power left in Shen Ying’s body. Even the light walls around them began to flicker. They looked like they were about to fall apart at any second. Once the power had finished sucking up all her powers, it headed straight for her.
Swoosh. It brushed past her face and left behind a wound. Fresh blood began to flow out of the cut on her cheek.
Shen Ying stared blankly at the man. She subconsciously touched the scar on her face, then looked at the strange red of her fingers. Her eyes narrowed. Her black pupils seemed to have been dyed by the blood on her face – there was a tinge of red in them.
The man’s attacks were getting increasingly vicious. Shen Ying felt the power around her intensify. She was wiped out of all her powers. She was like an empty oil lamp now. The final layer of defence around her body gave way and shattered to pieces. A crazy energy rushed toward her, threatening to kill her right there and then.
Suddenly, red light burst forth from her body. They resembled thousands of sharp blades, attacking the energy that the man had released against her. The light shone through the energy, looking almost like it was going to pierce through the entire Chaos Void.
“Ah…” The man screamed out in pain. All the energy that he had released began to stir, as if they had been attacked by something. “What is this?!” That’s impossible. He had already absorbed all of her powers. How could she still have powers? Even then, how could she be powerful enough to defeat someone like him – the essence of power!
Before he could figure it out, Shen Ying reached out and grabbed something from the top. There was nothing in her hands, but he felt like he was being restricted. Huge gusts of wind blew past his ear. The sky and earth began to spin. With a loud smash, he was thrown against the light wall.
“Ah!” The man shouted in pain once again. The power that he had released against Shen Ying seemed to be held back and torn apart by something. “This is impossible! How can you subdue me… Ah!”
Shen Ying grabbed the ball of gases and threw it around in all directions. There was a series of crashes. With each crash, the power that the man just absorbed reduced by a fraction. In just a minute, Shen Ying managed to empty out the man’s powers with pure brute force.
The man did not even have time to react. He only felt the power draining ot of his body. But this was what snapped him out of his daze and got him to start defending himself again. Suddenly, the ball of gases dissipated and retreated, forming a human figure once again. But he no longer looked as arrogant as he did before. Instead, he looked especially pitiful.
