Chapter 764: Burning Sky Slash (1/2)

For a moment, both of them only looked at the other in shock and respect. Both of them couldn't believe that the other one knew so many Laws.

Yet, the most shocked person was Stella's brother. 'He's able to keep up with sis!' he thought with shock. 'Sis has already used so many Laws, but he manages to counter them every time. This guy is a freak!'

'This is definitely not normal! I need to be ready for any surprise. Sorry, sis, but even if you hate me, I won't let you die!'

CRK!

Stella's brother silently broke an emblem in his Spirit Space.

None of the two had noticed this action as they fully concentrated on their opponent.

'Do I need to use my Weapon Laws?' Stella asked herself. 'He counters every kind of conventional attack. I believed that I would be able to win without using my Weapon Laws, but he is able to resist all attacks. I can't attack his Spirit, and I'm sure that he keeps some secret weapon hidden away. He knows that he will lose in a direct confrontation, which means that he is probably planning to take me out in a single strike.'

'If I'm not careful, I will die before I can even unleash my full power,' she thought with a sigh. 'To hell with self-respect. I'd rather be careful than endanger my life because of my own pride.'

BRRRRR!

Stella's saber started to burn intensely with the inferno element. She couldn't risk dying to some sort of surprise attack.

Gravis gritted his teeth. 'I wanted to kill her with two Lightning Crescents at our next clash, but she has already unleashed her Weapon Laws. This fight will become ugly now.'

”You are truly powerful, Gravis,” Stella said. ”I'll give you one more chance. I'm willing to stop the fight since I don't want such a talented youngster like you to die.”

”Youngster?” Gravis asked with a sneer. ”I'm already 4,000 years old. I'm not a youngster.”

”Yes, you are,” Stella said.

Gravis was a bit surprised since everyone he had met before had told him that he was far too old for a Minor Circulation Immortal.

”Do you think 4,000 years is anything in the vast world? In this area, maybe, but outside of this area, the Cultivators are not as impatient as the ones here. I'm already 95,000 years old and already went through my first tribulation. In comparison to me, you are only a child.”

'95,000 years!?' Gravis thought in shock. 'No wonder she knows so many Laws. However, why is she here then? Her second tribulation is coming soon, but she doesn't appear worried at all. The second tribulation should pit her against an opponent two levels above her. Does that mean that she can jump two levels?'

'I've seen her power, and she can definitely jump one level, but two levels? I'm not sure if she can manage that unless…'

'She hasn't shown her entire strength yet,' Gravis thought.

SHING! SHING! SHING!

Stella slashed into the air several times, leaving behind streaks of fire that stayed in the air. ”Let's see if you can resist the Seething Inferno Sect's main technique!”

”This is called the Burning Sky Slash,” she said. ”Show me that you are even more powerful! I hope you haven't already shown everything you have!”

A complex pattern of fire streaks appeared in the sky as Gravis simply watched.

'This technique is powerful,' he thought. 'Even while creating the technique, I can't get close to her. I feel like she can weave and manipulate this technique however she wants. If I attack now, she can unleash this attack from close range, incinerating me in an instant.'

'Interesting. So, there is a way to create and use a technique with a long wind-up that stops the enemy from interrupting you. Weapon Cultivation sure is different.'

'However, I can also feel that it's difficult to control that technique. If she tries to move closer, the technique will break apart. This means that she has to stay in this spot. This gives me some time to evade.'

”Don't die!” Stella shouted as she released one last slash.

BRRRRRRR!

The pattern of fire lines shot at Gravis.

CRACK!

Space around Gravis cracked, making it impossible for him to teleport.

The fire lines shot at Gravis with incredible speed.

BANG!

Gravis exploded to the left with his Lightning Acceleration.

SSSSHHH!
