In the sky, the Supreme Realm's attack immediately caused the night sky of Rushta to become unstable. The Lines of Law shattered and trembled, causing the magic particles floating in the air to boil. The leaves of the trees danced as if they were possessed. The flickering Lines of Law flashed in the air, and the mountains were immediately torn apart.
However, the battle in the forest did not end there. After Brendel sent Bradley flying with his sword, he did not even have the time to look at his teacher Mephistopheles's battle. Instead, he flashed to the top of the collapsed mountain.
In the meantime, several Flame Family Knights tried to cross the Lines of Flame to stop him, but Brando, who had activated the Crown of Thorns and the Berserk Talent, was already at his peak. As soon as he passed by, seven or eight shadows appeared in the sky with the Nine Luminaries Sword Art.
Before the Flame Family Knights could react, the Flaming Blade had already swept through with the violent power of space. The swords in their hands were forcibly removed in an instant. The suppressive power made it impossible for them to resist, and they could only watch as the shattered Holy Swords penetrated their bodies.
Brando withdrew the shadows he created, and countless dismembered bodies fell from the sky like raindrops, filling the sky with a rain of blood.
These people could not even stop him for half a second. Brando was very clear about his own situation. He was now at full strength, and could even be said to be in peak condition. He could even fight against an intermediate Limiteer.
However, this state could not last for long.
He only glanced at the collapsed mountain, then took a step back, raised his sword with both hands, moved his right hand back, and slashed down. Under the Flaming Blade, the layers of soil immediately collapsed, forming a bowl-shaped depression with a diameter of more than a hundred meters.
However, the moment the Power of Law hit the center, a black crack that was more than a thousand meters long silently appeared in the ground.
Brando knew that Bradley had been swept into the mountain by his sword, but he was not seriously injured. His opponent was a Limiteer, so how could he be injured so easily? Brando's plan was very simple. It could even be said that it was the same as Richard's.
It was to cut off one of Bradley's fingers before he could react and change the balance of power on the battlefield.
Thus, his first goal was to beat Bradley while he was down and kill him in one fell swoop while he was at a disadvantage. Although killing a Limiteer might sound a little inconceivable, this world was filled with all sorts of chances and coincidences. No one could guarantee that they would succeed.
What Brando wanted was this' what if '. If he succeeded, then the situation would be very different.
Of course, even if he failed, he wouldn't lose anything. That was why he was so determined.
Brando could not guarantee that his attack would have much effect. It was not as if he had never experienced a supreme realm battle — whether it was in this life or the last, but no one could say for sure how much of an impact a supreme realm attack could have on the Extreme Plains.
However, after recalling his past experience of fighting against a World Boss, Brando still cautiously estimated that this attack would at most injure the other party, but it was still a distance away from killing him.
However, he was not in a hurry. Instead, he calmly retreated — because he knew that the initiative was still in his hands.
It was at this moment that a golden-red flame burst out from the cracks of the stacked rocks. Brando raised his hand, and with a soft hum, the sword wind had already missed him and flew into the air.
The flame that scattered in the air brushed past his hair, burning off a few strands. Brando could not help but break out in a cold sweat. He immediately knew that he had made the right choice. If he had not retreated, then this sword would have beheaded him.
He looked up and saw that the flame that burst out from the ground was rapidly retreating to both sides, revealing a sharp sword that looked like a whirlwind behind it — and the Flame Swordmaster, Bradley, who was holding it.
The latter's condition was obviously not ideal. There was a bloody wound from his left shoulder to his right abdomen. Although it was not a penetrating wound, it did not look too easy.
Bradley's injuries were rather serious, which was within his expectations.
The attack just now was obviously a sword that Bradley hoped to turn the tables on, but he never dreamed that this young man would be so cautious.
Brando looked at the sword in Bradley's hand, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
He was no stranger to the sword formed by the wind. It was an Elemental Sword. Almost all Elemental Swords were Imaginary Swords. Apart from adding a certain amount of elemental damage, they were not sharp, but they had a special characteristic:
That was, they could not be broken.
As an Extreme Swordmaster, Brando was not surprised that Bradley had a backup top-notch weapon. In fact, experts of his level, including himself, would usually prepare several swords. For example, he had Frost Chant Cinna, Francis' Grip, and the newly acquired Duel as backup weapons.
However, Bradley actually chose to use an Elemental Sword. It could only be said that he was frightened by the sharpness of Oderfeiss.
But this was not wise.
Brando rejoiced in his heart. When Bradley met him with his sword again, he simply chose to meet it head-on, as if he was trading his life for Bradley's.
Bradley was shocked. His first thought was that there was a trick. Some swordsmen had an extremely valiant fighting style. They often chose to trade injury for injury to force their opponents to be restrained.
But this tactic was almost useless against someone above the Supreme Realm. How could an old Sword Saint with nearly half a century of combat experience be affected by such a small trick?
But when his sword continued to move forward, he found that what happened next was somewhat beyond his imagination.
Before the sword in his hand touched Brando's body, it seemed to have hit an invisible barrier. This barrier did not have any resistance, and it was not like any kind of defensive spell he knew.
But what he saw was that the Wind Sword in his hand actually dissipated when it passed through this barrier.
After being stunned for nearly half a second, Bradley finally understood what he had encountered.
Willpower Barrier —
At that moment, he almost wanted to curse because the main damage of the Elemental Sword was magic damage. But magic damage was almost useless against Brando's monster-like willpower.
But how could Bradley think that a human would have such an amazing willpower barrier?
For a moment, he almost thought that the Brando in front of him was not a descendant of Darius, or that the Earth Sword Saint himself was a dragon or something else. But in short, it was impossible for him to be an Iron Person.
But no matter what he thought, he could only watch helplessly as his opponent's sword pierced his chest. It was supposed to be the left side of his chest, where his heart was, but at the last moment, he managed to avoid hitting his vitals.
Bradley immediately let out a blood-curdling scream. He stretched out his hand and pushed the sword away with all his might. The shattered sword was pulled out of his chest, bringing with it a large amount of dazzling blood and rising steam.
He pressed on the wound with one hand and desperately retreated. Because the sword almost tore a third of his lung, he almost immediately coughed, and the fragments of his organs spewed out along with the blood foam.
But Brando did not seize this opportunity to pursue.
This was because he had also suffered heavy injuries.
After all, Bradley's sword still caused him damage. He glanced at the data panel, and he had lost more than a quarter of his life. This was the result after more than 90% of the damage was offset.
The gap between the supreme realm and the peak of the law was indeed like a chasm.
He coughed softly, looked up, and saw that one of the Empire's Twin Paragons, Willek, had finally rushed over.
There was no chance.
Brando felt that it was a pity. The opportunity to kill an Empire's supreme realm was right in front of him, and he was almost successful. But as he understood, this world was always full of opportunities and coincidences.
Almost, it was almost. There was nothing to regret.
Willek happened to witness the scene of Brando seriously injuring Bradley in mid-air, and he could not help but feel a sense of disbelief. Although Bradley was only considered a second-rate supreme realm in the Empire, he was still a supreme realm.
And yet, the number three figure of the Holy Cathedral of Fire had been defeated by a young man in his early twenties.
He was well aware that his own level was probably lower than Bradley's, so for a moment, his heart was filled with a strong sense of vigilance, afraid that he would accidentally lose his reputation in a fight with a junior.
In fact, he might even end up dead.
Therefore, he originally had the opportunity to kill Brando at the first moment, but he still cautiously attacked from afar, intending to test the waters first.
The sword flashed, and a flash of light arrived first. At this moment, Brando was rather helpless, and he could only give up on pursuing and block with his sword.
The sword collided with the Holy Sword Oderfeiss in his hand and was immediately deflected to one side, sweeping towards the forest on the side. It was as if an invisible razor had sliced through a patch of ancient trees, causing the forest near the Colddew Manor to immediately become bare.
Brando, who had noticed this scene, could not help but secretly curse in his heart. He was afraid that after this battle, this famous place of the Empire would really become a worthless wilderness. He heard that the owner of this place seemed to be the royal family. He did not know if Her Majesty the Queen would be heartbroken after losing so many people.
After blocking the sword, he actually felt a faint numbness in his arm. He could not help but immediately become vigilant, knowing that this was a sign that his Crown of Thorns was about to lose its effectiveness.
"I can't drag this on any longer."
Brando thought to himself. His gaze swept across the sky, taking in the battle in the air.
At this moment, Mephisto and Royer were long gone, and the battle between Richard, Saipan, and Valla could be said to be earth-shattering. Saipan had already reflected the land of floating stones in mid-air, which was a scene in the Elemental Plane of Earth. In this domain, most of his defensive spells were greatly strengthened, but even so, he could only barely block Valla's attack.
Before Valla became a Holy Sepulchre, he majored in the Nord Holy Words, which was an extremely ancient holy spell. It was said that it was related to an ancient clan called Raizer. This clan did not have a fixed residence on the continent, and traveled as their religion. Their power also came from the myths and legends of many worlds.
And to make the legends manifest in the material world —
This was the ultimate meaning of this holy spell.
Valla raised his hand and summoned two Trumpeter Angels. These were the envoys of the gods in the myths of the heavens, possessing strength close to the lower level of the Elemental Truth. Valla, with the strength of the peak of the Elemental Truth, summoned creatures of the lower level of the Elemental Truth, and it seemed to be effortless.
The Nord Holy Words were so unreasonable.
He also held a golden sword in his hand. How terrifying this sword was. Valla held the sword in his hand, and every time he stabbed, there would be a ray of light. As long as these rays of light shone on Saipan's defensive spells, no matter whether the spells were of the seventh circle, eighth circle, or ninth circle, they would immediately vanish.
Brando even saw Saipan's' Absolute Barrier 'spell, which was actually pierced through by the other party's sword. And it should be known that this was the top spell of the eleventh circle of Law Magic, which could be said to be the highest level of magic that mortals could master in the mortal world.
Therefore, he immediately understood the identity of the sword.
It was also one of the most legendary holy swords, Light of Contempt, the top artifact forged by the light of the Golden People, Martha. It was said that it once killed the Butcher of Truth, Koujire, and was later lost in the Battle of Ebabel. Some people said that it broke in that battle, then turned into starlight and disappeared from the world.
This sword had a characteristic, and that was to break all spells. In other words, it was said that there was a line of description in the attributes of this sword. It was only four words, but it was enough to explain everything.
But because it had existed in legends, Valla could use the Nord Holy Words of Vision and Faith to manifest it from the long river of fate.
Although the power was not as good as the original, it was enough to defeat Saipan.
Even Saipan the Tower Rebel had no way to break through Valla's defense circle, let alone Richard the Imperial Gate. Although the Flame Family Knight Regiment Commander was known as the strongest defense of the Empire, it was only defense.
In fact, he had been roaring in mid-air for a long time, but he couldn't do anything to Valla.
Valla was fighting against two enemies, but he still had the upper hand in the battle. If he didn't know that the Nord Holy Words had a weakness of consuming too much energy, Brando would almost think that this Great Sage was invincible.
But in any case, Valla was an existence that had one foot in the Sage Realm. Legend had it that after the War of the Holy Saints, because the Sea of Magic was isolated from the world by the Dark Dragon, there had been no one who surpassed the Supreme Realm among the mortals for more than a thousand years.
In other words, Valla represented the peak of the mortal world at this moment.
As long as the Silver Person and the Gold Person didn't show their strength, then there was probably no one in this world who could beat him.
Of course, after the arrival of the Demonic Wave, this situation might be broken in a very short time.
But Valla could only be said to have a slight advantage. It was basically wishful thinking to talk about winning. After all, his opponents were the two poles of the Empire. It was impossible for Saipan and Richard not to know the weakness of the Nord Holy Words.
So the current situation was no longer suitable for a protracted battle.
Brando immediately made a decision in his heart, and it was at this time that Willek's sword was already in front of him. He raised his sword and blocked the long sword that was slashing at him. The broken Holy Sword Oderfeiss in his hand shook slightly, and at the same time, his HP dropped by a line.
This phenomenon immediately rang the alarm bell for him. It meant that the Crown of Thorns had disappeared, and his defense was close to zero.
He had to break through.
"The Shire." While blocking Willek's attack, he contacted the others through telepathy.
At this time, The Shire, Mephistopheles, and Andrique were not idle. In fact, they had been surrounded by the Flame Family Knight for a long time.
While receiving Brando's order, The Shire forced several Flame Family Knights to retreat with a force field wave, and used the Law of Stop to freeze the two weakest among them. Because of the heavy losses before, the Flame Family Knight was a little too cautious at the moment. When The Shire suddenly attacked, their first choice was not to attack, but to retreat to protect their companions who were frozen by the spell.
This gave The Shire a chance to breathe.
"What is it, Sir Lord?" He asked while panting.
"Don't continue to fight, come closer to me."
"Are we going to execute the next part of the plan, Sir Lord?"
"Almost."
At this moment, Brando once again forced Willek's sword back. The swords in Oderfeiss's and Willek's hands clashed in mid-air, and dazzling sparks splashed out. The sword in Willek's hand was not ordinary. It was the 'Prisoner's Song'. Brando knew that it was a famous ancient weapon.
The characteristics of this weapon were its sharpness and indestructibility, so it just happened to restrain Oderfeiss's incomparably high attack.
With this exchange of swords, Brando felt a burst of weakness, and Willek obviously noticed it, but he could not confirm whether it was a trick or not.
However, this probing attack was only temporary.
After forcing Willek to retreat, Brando immediately took the opportunity to put on the Double Ringed Snake's Pupil. These two fantasy rings were his spoils of war in the Deadly Frost Forest. Because it required magic power to be at the pinnacle of the law to wear it, he had been keeping them dusty until today.
And this set of rings had a very special set attribute, which was to increase the bloodline and perception attributes by 100 points. Bloodline was still okay, but perception was extremely difficult to increase in the game. When this attribute was increased to more than 100 points, the perception would become extraordinary, and they would obtain magic vision and other characteristics.
As soon as he put on the rings, he immediately felt the whole world change.
Willek's body emitted circles of translucent ripples, and in mid-air, where Saipan and Valla were fighting, ripples that were hundreds of meters long swept across the sky.
He knew that these were actually magic ripples. He raised his head and saw the space enchantment that Royer had set up before floating in the sky.
'Clang —'
The Flaming Blade and the Prisoner's Song collided once again. This time, Brando took seven steps back, and the Crown of Thorns finally lost its effect. It was as if he was in a weak state after going berserk, and he began to fall into a difficult situation.
At this moment, Willek finally discovered the abnormality in Brando's body.
"It's the Crown of Thorns!"
At this time, Bradley suddenly shouted. As a high-ranking member of the Holy Cathedral of Fire, he certainly knew these inherited skills of the Templar Knight. What's more, he had seen the scene of Brando and the Flame Knight fight before, so he already knew that Brando was a Templar Knight.
"I see —"
Willek's eyes flashed with a deep light.
He knew that his opportunity had come.
And Brando also seized his own opportunity when Willek was distracted.
"The Shire, dispel the spell in that direction in the sky!"
He immediately yelled at his Mage Servant.
