Chapter 1499 1339: Sword Clash 2 and Alex's Sword Art-Special form
Alex's expression remained unchanged as the tall, burly man clasped his sword and strode toward him. However, he was eager to give it a shot, he could this experience to gauge his sword's skill.
'What a strange young man.'
Adan gazed with glints of interest. He had never expected to meet such an amusing young man by the border glacial land. However, he was equally dubious about Alex as he was with any other enemies. Judging from the sword aura that he emanated, his swordsmanship must have entered an extraordinary realm. But, strangely, his imposing manner was rather weak. Of course, it was rare for him to have such an extent of aura for his age, but Adan felt that something was amiss.
'This young man is interesting, powerful, and smart.'
He met many outstanding youths but none came closer to this young man, he was truly different. If Alex wasn't a member of the Renner Kingdom, Adan would even recruit him into his army to become his subordinate.
But…
Adan shifted his gaze to the burned corpses by Alex's feet and let out a subtle sigh.
The black-haired young man had killed Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament soldiers. No matter what reason he had, Adan couldn't watch with folded arms. Even though the investigations team was indeed reckless, such matters could only be discussed behind closed doors and they couldn't show weaknesses to outsiders. The honor of the Kingsley's Kingdom mustn't be insulted, questioned, or defiled.
Even though the truth was otherwise.
Adan displayed a bitter smile and pointed his sword at Alex.
'Here he comes!'
Adan's aura coalesced into an invisible pressure that engulfed Alex entirely. Alex knew that this was only the prelude. He laid his pitch-black sword horizontally.
The sky gradually darkened and an unpleasant smell exuded in the air. Faint lightning radiance flashed and flowed into the air like ripples in a transparent stream. Adan slowly lifted his sword. The sword's blade edge flowed in a blue radiance.
Although his movements weren't quick, his every action brought along a string of afterimages, as though the entire world had slowed down in this instant.
Then, a bright radiance flashed.
At the same time, the sword radiance on Alex's blade erupted. He darted forward with his sword in a dazzling radiance while Adan slashed his sword downward. Then, an incredible scene happened. The air exploded in roaring thunder and lightning bolts as though Adan's sword had attracted them. In the blink of an eye, Alex was struck by the bolts of lightning. A glaring white radiance erupted and forced everyone to turn away.
It was due to this that they didn't witness the smear of darkness in the spotlessly white scene.
Shing!
The pitch-black sword slashed through the air in an engulfing air stream. Alex's expression didn't change at all. The bolts of lightning struck toward him, but they weren't able to move an inch closer because of an invisible barrier surrounding his body.
"Oh?"
A curious glint flashed in Adan's eyes, but he returned to usual shortly after. Every powerful beings more or less had some magical equipment on them. Therefore, he didn't find it strange that Alex managed to resist his lightning bolts. He rotated his wrist and struck forward with his sword.
Adan darted forward with his sword at the speed of light.
However, Alex wasn't any slower. He let out a snort and swung his sword forward to resist Adan's attack. The swords collided and a deep, ear-deafening sound of friction rang in their ears. The lightning bolts in Adan's sword erupted and Alex swiftly retreated in two steps.
He lost in this clash but Alex was not surprised, he had expected this outcome as they were clashing relying on their swordsmanship, he felt short in this area but he wanted to learn from this fight which was why he grinned, successfully provoking Adan.
Adan brandished his sword.
The two swords collided and struck out dazzling sparks.
Adan gazed at the silver-haired young man who was still looking as calm as ever. Even though Alex was in a disadvantageous situation and basically couldn't win, Adan sensed that his imposing aura hadn't weakened at all. On the contrary, Alex's sword aura became stronger as though something was breaking out of its shell.
Adan retaliated, but Alex once again slipped away like a slippery fish. As Adan had decided to give chase, he suddenly felt a sense of dizziness, which forced him to come to a halt. He sulked slightly and clearly detected the slight, constant loss of his energy!
'How is this possible? What exactly happened?'
Adan was sure that the changes to his body must be related to the young man. He had intended to hold back his strength and capture the young man back to the Kinsley's Kingdom. But now, it seemed that the young man was much harder to defeat than he had expected. Besides, the young man also had some ridiculous moves that he had never seen before.
'I can't drag this on any longer!'
Adan raised his sword high and the dark clouds directly above him whirled into layers of circles and spun at flying speed. A flickering radiance occasionally flashed within them and suddenly, the loud roaring thunder numbed their ears.
No one had imagined this scene. The endless lightning strikes from the dense, dark clouds shrouded everyone within like a heavy downpour. At the same time, three distinctive halos emerged and expanded in all directions wildly!
Alex smiled. He knew clearly what Adan was up to. This was a technique that belonged to the Peak Demigod and a supreme proof of their strength—' Mystic Realm'. A unique domain created by the powerful being of this realm, where he became the God of this world.
Alex passed his sword swiftly to his left hand and resisted another lightning bolt that struck at him.
At this moment, the halo that was expanding alongside the roaring thunder and lightning bolts had arrived before Alex.
Everyone thought it was the end, but Alex's sword covered in silverish light was raised.
''Alex's Sword Art- Special form: Severance!"
Shinng!
Under everyone's astonished eyes, Alex cut the not-so-almighty domain into two.
Absolute Silence. They were all shocked, Adan's current expression was a sight to behold, his mouth was wide open, so wide you could shove an egg into it. If it was in a normal situation he would care for his appearance, keeping his dignity.
But now, Adan couldn't care less as his mind was filled with unprecedented shock. He never thought that this young man could break through his Mystic Realm!
'I succeeded.'
Alex revealed a glint of satisfaction as he gazed at Adan's expression. He knew why Adan was surprised, of course. He used him as a test after all.
