Chapter 2795 Composed Parity
The onlooking spectators simply watched the battle with stunned expression as Rui continued pressuring the Sage psychologically earning violent backlashes from him. And yet, not a single time could he get even a single attack on Rui despite pouring all his speed and power into his attacks.
The onlooking Sages understood that this wasn't due to his own shortcomings.
The fact that his swings were able to generate such a cleanly sharp shockwave that didn't simply dissipate was proof that he had achieved truly impressive mastery. Such a feat would have been impossible if the blade was even a nano-degree off angle with the trajectory of the swing.
His swordsmanship was refined.
And yet—
WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!
Rui weaved through blade swings with a buttery smoothness as he continued pressuring Sage Sekiei and draining his stamina.
Sage Himari and the Terrampager were most moved by this display of composed finesse.
Their battles with him had ended up being more flashy as Rui had pulled off crazy, risky stunts to even achieve parity. He had needed to pull off dangerous stunts because he simply had no chance of even maintaining the battle without them. This time, however, was different.
He didn't try any flashy stunts in a desperate bid to maintain the battle.
No, he managed to tussle with a Martial Sage even without relying on such things.
"...He's grown stronger," a faint whisper escaped Sage Himari. "Strong enough to fight us without gimmicks and stunts."
This realization struck the Sages heavily, leaving them stunned and speechless.
It was shocking enough that the Dawnbringer had grown strong enough to fight a Martial Sage. It was even more shocking to learn that he could now do so without any risks and dangers, or at least no more than one would expect in an intense battle.
The Blood of Solaris.
The Scriptures of Terra.
The blood evolution treatment.
These had comprehensively elevated him to a far greater echelon of combat power, and it was blatantly visible as they witnessed him battle Sage Sekiei.
The battle was mesmerizingly fascinating.
Despite the fact that Sage Sekiei was an order of magnitude faster than Rui, he still somehow smoothly evaded the man like the very world ordained that he shalt not be struck.
It was a negative feedback loop that ultimately favored Rui. Of course, he was still nowhere near actually bringing down the Sage in terms of damage inflicted, but it allowed him to get closer and closer.
With each passing moment, the amount of pain and suffering that Sage Sekiei sustained only grew larger and larger as his anger reached maddening levels.
And then he snapped.
"Blade of Heaven: Heavenly Bond of Karma."
Rui's eyes widened with shock as a profoundly perilous surge of danger sent chills down his spine as he instinctively leaped away.
But alas, he could not avoid what was to come.
In just a matter of nanoseconds, the entirety of heaven shifted as molecules aligned themselves with his blade, forming a myriad of channels of force that connected with all other things on the entirety of the battlefield.
His blade grew connected with all of heaven while all of heaven grew connected with everything else, forming an unbreakable bond between his blade and all things in the world around him. "Blade of Heaven..." A chilling whisper escaped him. "Omni-Heaven Rend."
An attack that struck everything everywhere.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!!!!!
The world shook as Sage Sekiei swung his sword with tremendous power, rending all of heaven and earth along with Rui.
RUMBLE!!!!!
Gaia mourned as the Martial Sage ruthlessly scarred her body
The world shook for another minute before settling down.
As the dust settled, the outcome became clear.
His body was checkered with wounds, cuts, and bruises.
He has cracked a few bones and partially torn a muscle.
He had even sustained an internal injury.
He immediately deactivated the partial Godspeed, replacing it with a partial Weaving Blood that rushed to heal his body at a very rapid rate. Weaving Blood was a technique that had benefited from the most upgrades in the past two years, with the Blood of Solaris and blood evolution treatment greatly enhancing its limits and regeneration speed.
And yet, it was not fast enough.
For the second Rend had already arrived.
