The upper echelons of the Seer Family weren't idiots, and there would definitely be people who could see where Karl's talent lay. Naturally, there was still a need to knock him down a peg or two. It was indeed a fact that people with such talent were easily wasted. However, Karl clearly wasn't such a person, as he was currently pursuing his own goals freely.
Bang bang bang bang bang …
Step after step, blade after blade, it felt as though the heavens were collapsing and the earth was rending apart. The Soul Power stacking of this blade technique exceeded 200 Grassos, and even Heroic Soul Stage soldiers would be chopped into pieces by it. Seemingly, the majority of the audience felt that this would be a one-sided fight, with Karl giving Karl some face. After all, the Mo Family had always been like this. However, from the looks of it, they were completely wrong. Even if it didn't affect the final outcome, Karl still wanted to show the dignity of the Seer Family!
However, people like Wang Zhong, Gui Hao, Vladimir, Carolyn and the rest did not have much of a reaction towards this. Indeed, this move had allowed Karl to be ranked as a top expert. However, the problem was that his opponent was Mo Wen. It was clearly impossible for him to use such a combat technique to chop down Mo Wen.
Indeed, Karl's attacks were berserk, to the point that the entire stage was about to collapse. Nevertheless, Mo Wen's defence was still as meticulous as ever. Karl's aura continued to rise, as his attacks were completely ineffective. Furthermore, there was a limit to this rise, as he was, after all, a Casted Soul Stage.
Karl clearly knew about this, causing the speed at which he turned around to clearly slow down, causing his blade to slow down slightly. However, in the next second, it had indeed chopped down like a bolt of lightning. This was a blade that had condensed the essence of his power!
Whoosh …
Instead of retreating, Mo Wen, who had been in a completely defensive state, advanced forward. His hands sliced forward, clasping Karl's blade between them before his strength reached its peak.
The 2 instantly entered into a hand-to-hand combat, as their Soul Power confronted each other. Mo Wen's point of entry was absolutely ingenious. Grabbing a blade with one's bare hands was a technique that could easily lead to one's death. With the might of Karl's Hundred Wave Slash, it was more than sufficient to chop his opponent into pieces. However, Mo Wen had already found the only opportunity, which was the instant he was ready to unleash his attack. Despite this, the accumulated power of the Hundred Wave Slash wasn't small, causing the Soul Power of both parties to instantly reach a deadlock.
Karl's long hair fluttered about, while Mo Wen's face remained calm. Humm ~ ~ ~
Soul Power exploded out, causing a shockwave to erupt out. Both sides rapidly pulled apart from each other, with Karl retreating a dozen metres back before turning around in an arc to stabilize himself. On the other hand, Mo Wen did a somersault and landed lightly on the ground.
After a brief moment of silence, earth-shattering cheers erupted from the entire stadium. All along, the Seer squadron had been on the verge of being crushed into smithereens. However, never in their wildest dreams did they expect for a Karl to appear, and be able to face off against the powerful Mo Wen. This duel was truly a head-on showdown, with both strength and techniques reaching the pinnacle. This was a duel between experts!
This duel had caused the other aristocratic families to reevaluate Seer. This fellow had hidden her strength too deeply. However, wanting to defeat Mo Wen with such conventional methods was basically a pipe dream!
Karl's fighting spirit was completely ignited when the two of them made eye contact for an instant.
If one were to say that he had stepped onto the stage for the sake of Seer's glory and responsibility, at this very moment, his fighting spirit had already been ignited by Mo Wen.
His fighting spirit continued to rise.
Boom!
A burst of flames ignited on Karl's body. The blazing red flames made him look like a man on fire.
"Is it an ability?"
"I was still under the impression that it would be some Spiritual Soul combat technique or Dimensional combat technique. If it's a fire attribute special ability, isn't that too ordinary?"
"What can that bit of fire do? It's not even at the level of a direct attack, right? Is it useful against Mo Wen? Or is it a supplementary ability, such as increasing the speed of fire? "
Clearly, in this era where Dimensional combat techniques and Spiritual Soul combat techniques were rampant, everyone was slightly superstitious about it. However, the rest of the audience remained silent. In fact, Wang Zhong's strength did not lie in his Dimensional combat techniques or Spiritual Soul combat techniques, but in his realm and usage. There were no invincible moves. Naturally, his fire attribute special ability was indeed a little too ordinary. Although it appeared to give him an advantage on the surface, Karl was in the offensive position, and in reality, it was negated. If his attacks were ineffective, he would not be able to block Mo Wen's counterattacks.
Low voices of discussion rang out in the arena. However, before everyone could finish their words, another wave of power had already surged out from Karl's body.
Wind!
"A 2nd special ability! He's actually a dual special ability! "
A wave of commotion instantly rang out across the arena. Dual special abilities were extremely rare. This wasn't just an issue of the difficulty of awakening one's special ability. At the beginning stages of the Casted Soul Stage, dual special abilities were a form of interference if not used properly, causing one to be unable to specialise in them. Truthfully speaking, Oli and the others who were relatively strong in this CHF had a single special ability. Their strength lay in their divinized special abilities, which allowed them to unleash their greatest combat prowess to the fullest.
Don't bite off more than you can chew!
Support?
Wind supporting fire?
Laura was extremely serious as she observed Karl's actions. This was slightly similar to her own situation. She possessed a wind attribute special ability, but her Soul Bear had given her a fire attribute special ability. If she possessed a fire attribute special ability, she would be able to obtain a divinized fire attribute special ability. Clearly, Laura was extremely disappointed with this situation. Wind supporting fire could increase the might of flames. However … her opponent was Mo Wen!
What was neutral?
Power was the key factor. The Mo Family would always be able to produce such super experts, which would allow them to stabilise their position. Even the tyrannical Hundred Wave Blade was unable to do anything to Mo Wen. How could a monster like him be changed by a simple fusion of special abilities?
This was also the opinion of everyone present.
However, a smile appeared on Karl's face as he pointed his long blade towards the sky. The instant the 2 special abilities appeared, they fused together without any obstructions. The wind swept up the fire, while the fire brought along the wind. The wind and fire fused together, wrapping around Karl, causing intense crackling sounds to ring out. At this moment, all of the fire attribute special ability users in the arena could already feel that something was amiss.
Sharmie clutched her chest in shock, while Papada and the rest from the Blazing Angel Squadron were also dumbfounded. Could it be?
That's impossible! The most talented fire attribute special ability users in the younger generation of the Federation were Sharmie and Papada. Fire attribute special abilities were the most ordinary, yet the most powerful. That's because amongst all special abilities, only fire was limitless in strength. Furthermore, it could continue to evolve. In the history of legends, the most powerful people were all fire attribute special ability users, and were able to destroy the heavens and earth.
The most difficult aspect of this was that fire attribute special ability users needed to possess the ability to evolve. The 2nd rank of the fire attribute special ability was the deep blue flames.
The originally red flames had unexpectedly turned into a transparent blue colour after fusing together. This blue colour was so alluring that the fame of the special ability users started to shrink. However, everyone was staring at the floating blue colour, as though it was incompatible with this world!
Blue flames!
Even the commoners, as long as they had the slightest bit of knowledge about special abilities, they would be able to tell what this blue flame represented.
2nd rank fire attribute special ability – Blue Flames!
There were some experts that were unable to raise their flames to this rank even after reaching the Heavenly Soul Stage!
It had already been over 50 years since a blue flame appeared in the Casted Soul Stage of the Federation. Oh my god!
Karl Seer!
The tyrannical might of Karl's 2nd rank blue flames was definitely 10 times more terrifying than Mario's hellish flames. The power of an advanced rank was completely different from the traditional scale. It could be said that those in the Casted Soul Stage who did not possess sufficient fire resistance would be injured upon contact, and death upon contact.
In an instant, the supporters of the Seer Family surged into a frenzy. That's right, as long as they could get rid of Mo Wen, and win another duel, Karl would be able to take on all 5 of them by himself in the group battle phase!
This power was invincible! It was Transcendent!
Mo Wen remained as calm as a mountain as he faced off against Karl. However, the screams and screams coming from the audience had already exploded out.
Just like Spiritual Soul and Dimensional combat techniques, Karl's 2nd rank flames were not something that a Casted Soul Stage should be able to control. One couldn't just look at a single thing. The stronger and more destructive a move was, the greater the need for a stronger vessel to support it. One could just imagine exactly how tyrannical Karl's body was, being able to control the blue flames!
As the blue flames revolved around his body, the aura radiating from Karl was already completely different from before.
With the long blade in his hand, despite being still, the blade intent and blade intent that were already overbearing to the extreme had unexpectedly advanced by leaps and bounds under the coordination of the blue flames. Its sharpness was astonishing, causing people to feel as though he was about to condense a blade that could split the heavens and earth apart, and cleave apart the primal chaos!
Mo Wen had also sensed this, and had finally taken the initiative to respond. Although he had only tilted his body slightly, in the eyes of the experts who had been observing the fight, this was basically the most objective portrayal of the blade intent Karl had unleashed.
What else could cause the number 1 expert of the CHF, Mo Wen, to act so cautiously?
The blade belonged to the overlord!
The tip of the broken blade had only made a slight upward motion, yet the aura in the entire stadium had already started to surge, appearing as though this blade had affected the entire world!
A faint smile flashed across Karl's face.
"Wind and Fire Reincarnation 18 Chops!"
BANG!
The tip of the blade flicked out, sending shockwaves sweeping out! The blue flames appeared to have attached themselves to the broken blade, before growing into a long blade glint!
A blue blade aura swept out in a ferocious manner, appearing as though it was breaking through the waves!
Dodge? Dodge? Dodge?
With the support of the 2nd rank flames, coupled with the tyrannical aura of his blade, Karl had already taken control of the entire stadium, with Mo Wen being completely unable to dodge!
At this moment, Karl's expression was still as unrestrained as ever, as his long blade instantly chopped down towards Mo Wen.
Seer War Blade — World Reincarnation 18 Chops!
BANG!
The tip of the blade flicked out, sending shockwaves sweeping out. The blue flames appeared to have attached themselves to the broken blade, before growing into a long blade glint!
A bluish blade aura surged violently towards Mo Wen, as though it was breaking through the waves!
Such a blade intent had swept out across the entire stadium, with Karl being utterly unable to evade it. Karl, who had unleashed his 2nd rank flames, had already completely suppressed him in terms of aura. This was a complete suppression in terms of realm!
Like a mountain, Mo Wen made a circle with his palms, causing a faintly discernible white glow to sparkle on his arms, appearing to draw a bright white circular aura in the air. At this moment, the only thing he could do was defend. However, was he able to defend?
The wide blue blade glint violently chopped down on the bright white aura.
BANG!
A massive bang rang out, as the bright white aura seemed to swell up. It was extremely flexible and resilient, causing it to sink into the ground. Nevertheless, it was unexpectedly able to maintain the aura without shattering!
The blue blade glint and the Soul Power formed by the aura rubbed against each other, causing sizzling sounds to ring out. After a momentary stalemate, Mo Wen pulled his palms back, before hurriedly retreating.
Borrowing the momentum of his retreat, he managed to dissipate the power of the blade glint. At the same time, he pulled the sunken aura back to its original shape, causing the massive rebounding force to push Karl's blade to the left.
Everyone from the Stuart and Gui Family stared with their eyes wide open. This was the Mo Family's profound technique, Circular Force! It was one of the top-notch profound techniques of the Mo Family. During the round-of-16, Wang Zhong had also used a similar technique. Circular was a type of understanding that not only did the Mo Family possess, but the various other great aristocratic families also had their own unique understanding of it. This was a profound technique that combined offence and defence, and pursued perfection. Not only could it be used in the Casted Soul Stage, it could also be used all the way up to the Heavenly Soul Stage.
Naturally, the display of this technique would be completely different for different stages. When Wang Zhong had used it previously, it had already attracted the attention of various people. However, due to the fact that it was of a very high level, only Gui Hao and the other two were able to pay attention to it. Nevertheless, they did not delve too deeply into it, as such top-notch profound techniques appeared to be easy in appearance, yet were difficult in spirit. Simply speaking, it was about borrowing force to counter force, or the comprehension of the spiral force. However, there was still a huge gap between them and the profound mysteries. Without a doubt, Mo Wen had definitely used Circular Force. If not, there was no way he would be able to receive such an attack head-on.
Beside him, Gui Xinying's eyes were also sparkling with deep interest. Although she might not have as many messy thoughts as her brother, having grown up in the Gui Family's environment, she was born with a high level of ambition and vision. Within the entire CHF, people that could enter Gui Xinying's eyes not only needed to possess extraordinary strength, they also needed to possess extraordinary charisma. Other than that unfathomable and limitless All Mouthy King, there was only Mo Wen who was able to attract her interest.
Karl's blade instantly deviated, though his aura did not diminish. Everyone knew how powerful Mo Wen's Circular Force was. Could he finish him off with a single slash? Never in his wildest dreams did he think of such a possibility.
Back when he had comprehended the Heaven Earth Wind Fire 18 Successive Slashes, he had harbored an aura of wanting to cleave everything in its path. This was also the direction of his blade techniques.
Blue flames danced within Karl's eyes. Admittedly, the wind attribute of his special ability was the main method to raise the rank of his blue flames. However, the Heaven Earth Wind Fire 18 Successive Slashes required the accumulation of power from the successive slashes, which was the greatest secret to raising this blade technique!
If you want to use softness to overcome hardness, and use 4 ounces to overcome a thousand catties, then I'll use 10,000 catties, 100,000 catties!
I'll crush you to death!
Kill!
Karl's entire body had already entered a state of frenzy, his expression appearing as though he had gone berserk. If he didn't go berserk, he wouldn't become a Buddha!
The deviated blade slash was skillfully redirected, before turning around and chopping down once again.
2nd slash!
"ROAR!"
Regardless of aura, power, or the purity of the blue flames, all of them started to increase at a visible rate. In an instant, the frightening successive slashes were unleashed with lightning speed!
This was closely followed by the 3rd slash, 4th slash, 5th slash!
The overbearing blade aura radiated across the stage, while the blue flames swept across the stage!
Mo Wen's aura and strength continued to rise.
The level of one's combat strength wasn't limited to the strongest level one could reach during normal training. In actual combat, one would be affected by the environment, threats, mental state and various other factors. Normally, one would be able to reach around 20% of one's combat strength under normal circumstances. Some of the more emotional and talented experts would even be able to reach around 50%.
Karl and Mo Wen might have already displayed 100% of their strength. However, this was clearly not the limit of their strength. Nevertheless, it was clear that the speed of Karl's blade aura was much, much higher than Mo Wen's!
… 9th slash, 10th slash …
The continuous increase in the blade aura caused the Circular Force's defence to become more and more strenuous. At this moment, it was already extremely hard for him to divert Karl's blade aura, and could only passively endure it.
Despite barely managing to defend his final line of defence, Mo Wen's originally spotless clothes had been ripped apart by the searing blue flames and blade Qi, causing them to burn to an incomparably tattered state. What's more frightening was that the speed at which he was retreating was increasing, to the point where he was about to reach the edge of the stage. Was this still Mo Wen?
