Chapter 905: Inactive Second Elder (2/2)

Sam moved his left hand. The lightning shield expanded and it completely surrounded his whole body like a cage and blocked one attack after another.

Not a single attack went through and Sam went on another slashing. Even though all the physical pain he is enduring, Sam has one advantage, the shadow sword only needs one perfect slash to end a man and if he couldn't defend the strike, he wouldn't be able to defend against the corruption of the shadow energy.

While is Sam is killing them left and right, there is something else that is making him more concerned. It is the fact that the second elder is not exactly attacking him.

By now he killed around fifteen members of the remaining Astral Plane cultivators and he is pretty sure that he would be able to kill another ten or so without any resistance.

And he knew this because he is targeting all the Initial stage Initiation and the Middle stage Initiation stage cultivation.

Then he would have to fight a little more to kill the rest and he is sure that he would be able to kill the Second elder if he took some more power out of that sword.

If he could put it directly, the barbarians have no hope, but the second elder shouldn't be knowing that, so he shouldn't be standing there passively while Sam destroyed his forces. Something else is going on here and he has to know what it is.

So, he stopped his attacks on the small fries and moved to attack the Second elder directly.

He kicked the ground and got ready to stab his sword right in his eyes.

The second elder dodged to the side, but the thunder prison on Sam's hand suddenly extended and it acted like a metallic power hammer and hit him in the guts with a large amount of lightning energy.

The second elder flew across the air and when Sam was about to follow up the right-hand man of this second elder came and attacked him.

The thunder prison extended once again and acted like a pincer. Sam blocked the attack with his sword and used the lightning pincer to pin the guy to the ground before stabbing the sword into his neck, but he forcefully moved to the side and took the full brunt of the attack on the shoulder.

He is a peak stage Astral Plane Initiation cultivator and he is one of the five that could resist the corruption a bit.

But Sam didn't want to give him the chance to do that and was about to stab him once again, but the other parties are not exactly willing to give him that chance.

The remaining three out of the strongest five here came at Sam from three sides, so he has to let go of that guy and defend himself.

But he is still focused on going after the Second elder.

He didn't stop at all and only dealt with the remaining four when they got in the way. As for the rest of the candidates, they didn't try to interfere.

These five are the only ones who can even defend against the sword and they are happy to not get it in the middle and get slashed.

The second elder mostly focused on dodging and defending than attacking Sam while the remaining four focused so much on stopping him which only made them get the shocks by the lightning and stabs from the Shadow sword which is increasing the corruption slowly.

The second elder looked at Sam with a frustrated look as Sam just used the thunder prison like a pile bunker and slammed one of the four into the ground while continuously stabbing him in the chest.

One of the four finally died, but at the cost of exposing Sam's own body for the attacks of the rest of the three and he spat out some blood in pain.

After one of them dead, Sam used the thunder prison to take another recovery break.

After recovering, he went after the second elder once again and he is once again dodging while the remaining three tried to stop him.

The cycle repeated again and again and finally, Sam managed to slash him on the shoulder.

The second elder looked at him coldly and attacked back with his spear. Sam took the brunt of the attack and crashed to the ground, which he rebounded from with the help of thunder prison to bounce back.

He knew that something is wrong with the Second elder and he just confirmed this attack. The second elder is weak at the moment, it might be a result of something that happened to him, but he is not in his strongest state.

That is why he is not attacking Sam actively because he is afraid of Sam's attacks. But if that is the only case, there is always a surrender that would help him from saving the lives of his tribesmen. But he is completely ignoring their lives, no matter how many of them are dead.

This is all a bit fishy.
