Sword Among Us - Chapter 1217: Suppressing Him With Strength
Shick!
Tiger Soul sank deep into the sand and only had its hilt remain in the air. The hilt was less than two feet long, and it was shaped like a spine.
Happy held Heaven Crystal in his hands. The pure and powerful presence spread out endlessly to suppress the brutal presence from Tiger Soul.
"Heh…"
The alliance master stood in the distance calmly as he watched Happy and his sword suppress Tiger Soul. He immediately understood what was going on and laughed loudly.
"Young Swordsman Happy, could it be that you intend to suppress Tiger Soul while fighting against me?" The teasing and mocking tone in his voice was very obvious.
Right after he finished speaking, the alliance master's expression changed, and he took half a step forward abruptly.
Shick!
A milky-white finger-generated gust released a faint sound as it tore the alliance master's cloak to shreds.
The torn cloak landed on the sand like snow.
This scene landed in the alliance master's eyes, and his gaze instantly turned much graver.
"You have a pretty decent finger technique." The alliance master's tone and gaze changed.
The finger attack just now was much more amazing than before. It was so fast that he was only barely able to escape, and the price for it was his tattered cloak.
He missed. Happy lowered his left hand with a calm expression. His left hand hung naturally by his side, and he did not even look at the alliance master.
"Your body movements are pretty good, Alliance Master." The mocking tone in his voice was very obvious. He did not show the alliance master the slightest shred of respect.
The alliance master's gaze darkened. "You talk big!"
Even if the alliance master was magnanimous, he would still be unable to bear it when he was mocked repeatedly by a junior wanderer. He pushed his fingers together, and the metallic finger gloves let out a hideous and piercing screech.
When the piercing metallic screeches rose, the hostility between them grew unprecedentedly greater. Happy's gaze finally landed on the alliance master, and he said firmly, "We have never needed to waste so much our breath talking to each other!"
"Well said!"
Once the alliance master said these words, he vanished.
The sand rose, and an afterimage that swiftly vanished was left behind where the alliance master once stood.
Happy froze a little.
Clearly, the finger-generated gust just now had caused the alliance master to become wary. He did not intend to waste time and went straight to the point by seizing the initiative. Once a person in the dao of heaven became one with the world, he would forever have the absolute advantage in his hands.
But Happy did not intend to let himself become a sheep for slaughter.
He used a bit of strength under his feet.
Bang!
The ground trembled a little.
His hidden force instantly swept to a circular area that was dozens of feet wide.
He did not create a magnificent tornado and sandstorm this time.
Happy only used his hidden force to gently stir up a layer of sand.
An area worth dozens of feet was instantly covered by fine sand that looked like dust.
In the next moment, even the slightest movement was reflected in Happy's spirit sense.
'Found him!'
It might seem to have happened over a long period of time, but in truth, this happened in the blink of an eye.
Almost at the moment the dust filled space, Happy had already used his spirit sense to detect a figure that was swiftly moving toward Happy. He also managed to read the alliance master's movement trajectory.
Clang!
He swung his longsword diagonally.
A barely audible gasp was heard.
At the same time, a black, savage, and metallic claw stretched out from the air.
Crack!
The alliance master grabbed the fierce sword qi from Heaven Crystal, and he crushed it. The shattered sword qi scattered everywhere, allowing him to fully display the domineering presence of someone in the dao of heaven.
But the alliance master did not have an easy time either.
Right now, Happy's sword technique had already reached the tenth realm. His damage had already increased by leaps and bounds. The sword slash contained Heaven Crystal's sword will, and it could also break defenses. Even those in the dao of heaven could not completely dissolve the attack on the spot.
Bang!
Even though he managed to block the sword qi, the alliance master shuddered. At the same time he fell out of the air, he grunted, and he froze a little because of a powerful inertia. He staggered a few times on the sand before he stopped.
Both of them had just used one move.
One of them remained still beside Tiger Soul, and he appeared relaxed.
The other staggered a few steps back because of the shock.
The stronger could clearly be seen with just one glance.
As Happy saw the alliance master's gaze turn even more solemn and serious, Happy knew that he only had the advantage in the fight because of Heaven Crystal's defense breaking attribute in its sword will. The alliance master might be strong, but his weapon was weaker than Happy's, so that was why he was suppressed.
Once the alliance master placed his attention on Tiger Soul and forcefully snatched Tiger Soul from Happy, it would be difficult for Happy to tell whether he could suppress the alliance master.
Once he thought of this, Happy suddenly noticed that the alliance master's focus had moved from him to Tiger Soul, which was by his side.
Even though it only lasted for a brief moment, Happy was still able to notice this through keen observation. He frowned.
'Seriously, what I was afraid of just had to happen.'
Boom!
The alliance master attacked once more.
He grabbed the air with one hand.
The air swiftly became stagnant, as if an invisible hand suddenly extracted all the air in the area.
Happy immediately noticed that the sand floating in the air was pushed down by an invisible force. It fell to the ground.
Whoosh!
The alliance master disappeared from Happy's eyes once more.
Since he was too close, this time Happy did not have the time to use the same method to capture the alliance master's movement trajectory.
He frowned.
"ROAR!"
A violent qi flow gushed out of Happy's body abruptly. It was accompanied by an angry and supreme dragon's roar.
Ripples appeared in the space of a circular area that was dozens of feet wide due to the roar.
The ruthless sound wave forced the alliance master out of his state of being One with the World.
He froze for a moment. Before he could react, Happy used the momentum to swing his sword at the alliance master.
The alliance master was once again forced into a passive situation. The sword qi descended on him.
His armor, which was a demon vessel, was broken. The alliance master was in danger. If this attack landed on him, even if he had his body fortification protect him, he would be wounded badly, because Heaven Crystal's sword will could break defenses.
In a very strange manner, the sword qi just charged past the alliance master.
At the moment the sword qi was about to cut his body, the alliance master disappeared completely from Happy's spirit sense like a puff of smoke.
It was the Supreme Technique of the World's Union with the World.
Even though Happy quickly understood what happened, at the moment the sword qi charged past the alliance master, he could not help but be stunned, and his movements paused for a moment.
Whoosh!
The alliance master appeared once more.
He did not stop moving. He swung his arm, and a mighty power swept up the sand that rushed swiftly at Happy.
They were both really close to each other, and they could not avoid each other.
Happy had already used his moves so many times that the alliance master was already used to seeing it, but he could not change it for the time being.
To protect Tiger Soul, he could not use Dragon Swings Its Tail either.
This might seem to have occured over a long period of time, but it actually happened in the blink of an eye.
He gritted his teeth, and his white robes fluttered slightly. A hidden force traveled violently into the sand from Happy's feet.
Boom!
Wild Fights in All Directions.
The alliance master was rather unfortunate.
He activated his trump card and avoided the attack Happy used to try and cut his body. He also tried to grab Tiger Soul and Happy. While his timing was impeccable, he froze a little because of the ruthless energy that appeared in the air.
The mighty elite who stood at the top of the others in the dao of heaven felt a pressure against his chest, and his true qi spilled out. He staggered and fell out of space.
But he managed to slam his palm into Happy.
Thud! Thud!
The alliance master retreated a few steps.
Even though this hidden force was not strong, the effects were very clear.
Happy had activated his true origin aura in time and withstood the alliance master's attack. He took a step back as well and landed next to Tiger Soul.
On the surface, the alliance master was at a disadvantage because of the steps he took, but Happy knew that he did not use the full strength in Wild Fights in All Directions because of all anxious he had been just now. he only used the tremor effect in the technique to dissolve the danger, and the alliance master was not hurt.
However, while the alliance master noticed that the attack did not cause any substantial damage to him, he had his chance of activating his trump card easily dissolved by Happy, and his expression was naturally not pleasant.
He had to retreat twice in front of a junior who had a low qi realm. This caused the alliance master to feel incredibly embarrassed, and he felt as if he was humiliated.
This time, Happy did not let the alliance master to continue controlling the rhythm and take the initiative.
"Die!"
He withstood the alliance master's attack, but Happy did not retreat. Instead, he moved forward by tapping against the ground and charging forward swiftly to chase after the alliance master, who had just landed on the ground.
Whoosh!
Full Winds in Long Skies!
He delivered his attack, and a profound, black gash appeared in the area Heaven Crystal cut through.
The alliance master's expression changed drastically at the moment Happy attacked with his sword.
He was someone in the dao of heaven, and he was among the best among all those in the dao of heaven. He had a clear understanding toward the power of the world, and he could adjust his surroundings according to the situation to strengthen his body.
It was precisely because of his understanding to the power of the world that he had an even greater fear toward the power of the world.
Happy's attack had torn through space. A ruthless suction force rose from the direction where the sword qi swept through, and a destructive presence forced him to come to a decision—he had to use his trump card again.
Whoosh!
He vanished from the air once more.
The longsword cut through.
The alliance master staggered out of space even faster this time. His gaze was no longer as fierce as before, and his steps were feeble. His chest also started heaving. It was clear that using his trump card twice in a row to avoid Happy's attack was quite the burden on him. He could not recover within a short period of time.
"What a pity…"
Even though Happy had long since known that it would be impossible for him to kill the alliance master so easily, when he saw how the man managed to avoid his fatal strike once more, he still could not help but sigh. He found it really regretful.
However, the alliance master's nightmare was not over just yet.
Once Happy delivered another sword slash, Happy had already appeared in front of the alliance master at lightning speed.
Whoosh…
As he faced the alliance master's angry and shocked gaze, he positioned his left hand in the shape of a claw and reached out swiftly.
Slap!
The alliance master had used his trump card twice. and it was difficult for him to recover his strength in an instant. He could only watch as Happy used Dragon Capture and grabbed his arm. A wave of energy surged out of his Dantian region and smacked Happy's arm away.
A system notification arrived.
"Ding!
"The disparity in strength is too great. You failed in using Dragon Capture."
Happy had also expected this to happen.
There was a difference of two qi realms between them. It was impossible for him to be able to capture the alliance master.
But he still managed to make him freeze for a moment.
Having his opponent freeze for a moment was already enough for Happy to determine whether he would live or die. The alliance master was no exception to this.
Thud!
The sword flashed. The alliance master was unable to dodge this time. A deep and long gash was left behind on his chest, and his body was thrown backwards…
However, right when he was thrown away, Happy followed him closely like a shadow. A dark shadow of a snake descended from the sky.
Dragon Coil!
