Che!
Amber slashed her sword forward, unleashing a blood red sword image far stronger than she had unleashed before. Those nearby felt their instincts flare as they gazed at the art, almost unable to do so. Its sharpness and speed were beyond compare, and it was obvious that the attack contained many profound and powerful Dao's within.
Miko's calm gaze stared at the oncoming sword art, as if it didn't concern him.
"The Dao of Speed and Sharpness huh?" Miko mused as he casually slashed his pearly white sword forward.
Che!
A brilliant, almost blindingly white sword image slashed out towards Amber's attack, its profoundness no less than hers. It was as if a sword god had unleashed the attack himself; an attack that was able to cleave through anything.
The two attacks collided in mid air, and both attacks severed right through the other as both attacks were instantly neutralized. Amber's gaze narrowed as she saw her attack perfectly countered..
Miko flashed to the side once more, appearing in another location filled with both ally and enemy youths. Many of the enemy youths were instantly overwhelmed by his soul domain and came to a complete halt, at which point their opponents used the opening to land the finishing blow.
Some were able to resist its power, but their movements became sluggish as they fought back against the overwhelming soul domain. Their sluggish movements were all the help the Honorable Alliance youths needed, as many used the opportunity to land finishing blows as well.
In less than a few minutes, over thirty enemy youths were slain, a number that was beyond shocking. Given that they only numbered around two hundred at the moment, a large portion of their fighting force had been eliminated. If this were to go on, the battle would no doubt be lost.
With their opponents dead, the Honorable Alliance youths were free to help their allies elsewhere, further turning the tides of battle. The battle had been hopeless at first, but for the first time, the Honorable Alliance was seeing victory on the horizon. Their fighting spirits were ignited even further as they pressed forward with everything, hoping to end the battle once and for all.
"Stop running away you fucking brat!" Amber cursed, displaying a rare outburst of rage. She was almost always in control of every situation she was in, but now was different. Miko dashed throughout the battlefield while focusing on defense, clearly displaying his goals. He wanted to stall against Amber as long as possible while helping out the others, eventually finishing the war almost all by himself.
Amber's grit her teeth so hard that they nearly shattered while she stared at Miko with hate filled eyes.
"You're going to pay for what's to come," Amber cursed him angrily, "after I kill you, I'll absorb every last drop of your blood!"
Miko stared back with his calm and indifferent expression as he watched Amber turn her sword around. Her sword plunged forward into her chest, shocking everyone on the battlefield. Amber grimaced in pain as her sword pierced directly through her chest, while a small stream of blood dribbled down the corner of her mouth.
With the sword firmly in her chest, Amber made a hand seal before the hilt of the sword, while her essence Qi flared with an overwhelmingly profound aura.
"Descent of the Goddess of Slaughter!" Amber said through gritted teeth, although there was clearly a tinge of reverence in her voice.
The world seemed to go silent for the briefest moments as a figure began to materialize behind Amber, greedily absorbing Amber's Qi, as well as the blood that began to flow from her chest wound. The figure continued to solidify as it absorbed both, while those on the battlefield couldn't help but hold their breaths. It was as if a god had truly descended on the battlefield, one that filled their minds with images of blood and slaughter.
The figure was quite large, at over thirty yards tall, and hovered in the sky behind Amber. It had blood red hair, while its face was blurry, as if no one here was worthy of seeing it. The figure held a blood red sword in her hand, almost identical to the one Amber held in hers.
Everyone could tell that the figure was not something real, and was instead an avatar made of Qi and blood, but it felt real to most seeing it.
Boom!
Amber's aura exploded out once more as the figure finally seemed to become complete, and her bloodstained teeth turned from a pained grit to a maddened smile as she stared at Miko below her.
"Die, you fucking brat!" she cursed as she slashed her sword down at him, while the figure behind her matched her movements perfectly.
Che!
The world seemed to tremble for the briefest moments as the avatar behind Amber unleashed a sword art from their sword. The sword art was another blood red sword image thirty yards long, but it appeared so real as to fool the eyes of most nearby.
An overwhelmingly profound aura of Speed, Sharpness, and something else radiated from the sword image as it slashed down at Miko with lethal intent.
Miko breathed in lightly as he gazed at the sword image above him, while his own pearly white sword steadied by his side. He breathed out lightly shortly after, while his sword casually slashed upwards towards the blood red sword image approaching.
""Sword Sovereign Severs The Heavens: Form Two!" Miko said calmly, while his face paled slightly.
Che!
An incredibly thin and almost unnoticeable beam of sword Qi slashed out from his sword towards the attack above. It was far smaller and thinner than the overwhelmingly powerful blood red battle art above, and seemed as though it would be swallowed up by the attack without question.
Che!
The two attacks collided with frightening speed, and everyone nearby held their breath as they braced for an incredibly powerful explosion of battle arts. However, that explosion did not happen, and instead the youths watched with stunned expressions as Amber's blood red sword was cleaved directly in half, losing a great deal of its power as the two halves of the real looking blood red sword slammed down on Miko below.
However, with its power somehow reduced, as if Miko's sword art had severed the Dao of the attack itself, the sword art fell on Miko's location with much less power.
Boom!
The attack exploded outwards, bathing Miko in blood red Qi while destroying the land nearby. The youths nearby braced themselves as they felt themselves nearly overwhelmed by the explosion, and also overwhelmed with shock. The battle art had been reduced in power greatly, and yet it was still so powerful. If they had been struck by the reduced power attack they would have still died, let alone the original full powered attack.
The explosive battle art faded away, revealing a fractured land and a massive crater at the center. Within the crater stood Miko, whose robes were slightly damaged, and some small wounds were visible on his cheeks and arms, but other than that appeared completely unharmed. His cold gaze stared back at Amber above, who looked on with stunned disbelief.
"Impossible!"
