214 A Strange Thunderstorm (1/2)

The first attack of Ralen used the power of his fall to harm the bandit leader. Ralen knew very well that he was able to beat his opponent when both were at the same realm, but that time his opponent surpassed him by a realm, so he didn't dare to be negligent.

”Before, you might have had a chance to kill me, but now you can only wait to die smashed by my hammer!”

The enormous hammer was slow, but it possessed a huge strength. Initially, the bandit leader wanted to delight with the surrender or Ralen, but since that wasn't possible, he wanted to smash him to pieces.

Of course, Ralen wasn't a newbie in real battles as he had been defending the city from ignorant invaders for a lot of time, so he didn't clash his sword towards the hammer. Each weapon had its own strengths and trying to clash a sharp and quick weapon like a sword to a heavy and blunt weapon like that big hammer was something foolish.

While their battle started, Yale was high in the air with only a sea of clouds under his feet.

There was no way anyone managed to see Yale from the floor, but if someone had done it, that person would be frightened because countless thin ice swords surrounded Yale.

Those ice swords were moving without stop around Yale, and they all had a layer of thunder in them. That was a new skill Yale had thought after started flying; it was created to deal with, an enormous number of opponents, it was an anti-army type of skill.

There were a lot of skills of the anti-army type in the Magus Path, but no one used swords, those anti-army skills were all pure magic and required having higher ranks to be executed.

The ice swords covered by thunder were deadly, but their true fearsomeness was their number because blocking them all was impossible; Yale knew that any army composed like the ones attacking Sword City would suffer under that Skill.

The bad side for that skill was that it was extremely costly in Origin Points, he used a total of six thousand Origin Points before managing to finish creating it.

”An Origin Skill had been created. World's resonance will appear after the skill is fully launched.”

Yale had the feeling that he was creating another Origin Skill when he started, but he let his intuition act when creating the skill and it worked very well. In fact, since the skill was something related to swords, the Condensed Sword Essence had played a huge role in creating that Origin Skill.

”Thunder Ice Sword Rain: Shoots Ice Swords covered by thunder to all the opponents. Anti-army skill. The ice swords will follow the targets for a limited time; the time increases with better control of Spiritual Sense and Archery Mastery. Sword Mastery and Archery Mastery effects have double influence in the skill. Thunder/Water Element. Only usable by Origin Path practitioners. It requires 6000 Origin Points. As a skill created by the user, this Origin Skill is mastered. The level improvement of this skill will rely on the user's insights.”

If it weren't because of the Origin Qi, it would be impossible for Yale executing that type of skill because with just Spiritual Sense he could at most control five or six flying swords. Of course, just throwing them was easier, but those ice swords had a tracking function which increased a lot the difficulty of executing the skill.

However, the Origin Qi could be combined with Spiritual Sense to make the control smoother, although the cost of being able to control such a high quantity of swords for a while was extremely tiring.

Furthermore, Yale was using Bloodline Force with his three bloodlines to boost even more his Spiritual Sense; only with all those conditions, he was able to barely create the Thunder Ice Sword Rain.

While Yale was almost ready to execute his attack someone else was in the sky observing him, but Yale didn't notice about that presence.

”Another Origin Skill. Too reckless, without my protection you would have attracted more trouble.”

That was the Mysterious Expert who had helped Yale in the past, but Yale was still unsure about its existence and only had guessed a bit based on the words of Aiwai and Paku.

The battle between Ralen and the bandit leader was intense, and no one seemed to obtain the advantage, which angered the bandit leader who had been dreaming about easily trashing Ralen.

”You fools! Start attacking Sword City now! Let's turn it into a sea of blood!”

The bandit leader shouted using his Inner Qi, so his voice was heard in a few kilometers around.

The bandits roared after hearing those words, and they started attacking the gates. On the other hand, those in Sword City were scared, but they still believed that the Sword Mage would make another miracle.
