Philip jumped out of the metal walls before he was crushed.
But when he was in the air, he was hit with that invisible energy once again. He spat out some blood before he crashed to the ground.
Brother Black walked to Philip casually and said.
“I thought you were something since you are so close Sam, but it seems like you are just so-so. Where did you get the confidence that you can take me on? Even in my exhausted state, you are no match for me.
Do you really think that the differences in the cultivation levels are just for show?”
Philip didn’t reply and slowly stood up. Brother Black extended his hand and tried to crush him to the ground, but as if he had expected this already, Philip moved to the side.
*BAM*
The hit landed squarely on the ground, leaving a perfect circular impression on the soil.
Philip closed his eyes and took deep breaths.
Brother Black frowned and looked at him. He was confused as to how Philip dodged it.
He made a move once again, but Philip was not hit. He dodged this attack and even shot a fireball at him.
“It can’t be. How is that even possible for a person with lower cultivation?”
He muttered to himself in disbelief.
Brother Black is very confident about his own abilities because unless someone is of a higher level than his own in terms of cultivation, it’s not possible for them to ‘see’ his attacks. Even the spiritual senses are useless in a situation like this.
They cannot catch the energy coming from him with their senses.
Even for people who are at the same cultivation level as him, it is a big problem. But for Philip who has a lower level of cultivation than him to do this, he was shocked, to say the least, and even the word shocked is an understatement.
As he was lost in the daze for a moment, Philip lunged forward with flames shooting all around his body as he closed the gap between them.
The metal fist covered in flames landed right on the chin of the young master.
Brother Black came back to his senses with the hit, but before he could fight back, Philip caught his hand and started landing hits on the ribs from the side.
The sharp metal protrusions and spikes that came from his fist. They landed straight on the ribs and liver as Philip constantly punched him. His hits are rapid. He hit him until even his own hand started hurting at the shoulder because of the constant movement.
All of this happened in an instant.
Brother Black pulled himself together and pushed Philp away. But that exact moment, Philip grabbed a hold of his hand, and the gloves he was wearing started glowing.
Brother Black felt a large suction force around him and in an instant, both of them disappeared.
Meanwhile.
On Watt’s side.
He is fighting against Brother Silver.
By the time Philip already disappeared with the young master, Watt is still on his hoverboard as he threw over a hundred cards and all of them are being manipulated by the wind.
Brother Silver is trying his best to defend them.
The individual attacks of the card are not really that powerful for him, but every card that Watt released at the moment is a trap card and they can be activated any time Watt desired.
And as soon as Watt managed to land one hit, it is leading to a chain reaction as one card after another followed.
The young master wasn’t able to block the attacks until a good amount of them landed on him. Even if the damage is minute, it is accumulating very well.
Brother Silver looked at Watt and said.
“You bastards really are persistent and annoying. I didn’t want to use this since I am low on energy, but you asked for it.”
All of sudden, spiritual energy gathered under his feet as he jumped into the air like he was shot from a rocket.
He whistled through the wind and reached Watt in an instant, catching him a bit off guard.
But even if Watt wasn’t ready, his hoverboard was. The hoverboard moved on its own and dodged the young master’s attack.
Watt heaved a sigh of relief, but that only lasted for a moment. The young master didn’t land on the ground after the jump.
Instead, he kicked the air and with a large explosive sound, he changed his direction towards Watt.
This time Watt prepared himself and cards flew out towards the young master.
The young master punched forward creating a wave of energy that blocked the cards in their tracks. The impact didn’t stop there and reached Watt. This time even the board wasn’t quick enough.
Watt took the impact straight to his body but used the hoverboard to reduce the impact as he moved along with it.
But that was not enough, the young master constantly kicked the air as he moved around punching Watt from different sides.
After he noticed that the Silver wind is keeping Watt stable no matter how much he tried, he attacked the board directly while feigning an attack on Watt.
Watt finally fell off the board. Silver wind zoomed through the wind as it tried to catch Watt, but the young master was faster than him.
He held Watt by the throat as he increased his speed to crash to the ground.
But right when they were about to crash, both of them disappeared from the spot.
At the same time on Jack’s end.
Jack is standing there while tightly holding his sword.
He is injured all over. Brother Gold ran straight towards him. A layer of energy was consolidated around him as he hit Jack directly.
Jack wanted to defend himself with his sword, but the sword slipped as soon as it met the energy layer.
He gritted his teeth and tried to calm down as much as he can.
“I must say, you are really skilled. But you are just way too weaker than me. I really wish we could have fought on equal terms in a proper fight.”
Jack just stood there adamantly as he calmed himself down. His breathing slowly relaxed and his aura started changing. Slowly the spiritual energy around him turned sharper and even his breath sounded like the keening of the sword.
“Is it a new trick?”
Brother Gold said under his breath. He frowned and contemplated. Because even his energy is on the low side. He can’t play around much longer. The only reason he played around until now is to see if Sam will come out if he tortured his friend.
But it doesn’t seem like it’s gonna happen any time soon.
So, he decided to finish it off and return to the main mansion to recover.
He once again dashed towards Jack and he didn’t even bother to be wary of the sword strike. Jack still had his eyes closed as he swung his sword at the young master.
He swung it early and didn’t bother to make physical contact.
The sword ray was shot out and it smoothly went through the young master as well. This shocked him. He didn’t expect the sword ray to go past the barrier, to begin with, but for it to go past him as well, was shocking.
The even more shocking thing is that he couldn’t feel any physical injury. Nothing on him was cut.
That feeling only lasted for a couple of minutes though, because he felt like something was cut, but not physically, rather in his soul.
“AARRGHHHH….”
He groaned in pain as he stopped in his tracks. He could feel the sharp pain in his soul and in his mind as if some of his nerves are being forcefully torn apart.
Jack opened his eyes and took advantage of this situation by swinging the sword at the young master’s throat.
The sword obviously didn’t meet the throat, the young master forced himself to stand up and block the sword attack.
He couldn’t get back to his sense completely and was unable to defend himself. The slash landed squarely on the chest.
The young master felt humiliated. A person who is weaker than him by so much was able to leave such a slash on his body. He never felt more humiliated than this and he is sure for some reason that it won’t get any worse than this.
He lunged forward all of a sudden, completely ignoring Jack’s sword which lodged itself slightly into his flesh.
He held Jack by his throat and looked at him coldly.
As if he is expecting this, Jack just smirked before both of them disappeared.
Jack and the young master appeared in a dark space. Brother gold looked into the infinite void around them and felt extremely tense.
“Where the fuck am I? How am I here?”
He yelled out loud just to attract everyone that might be nearby.
