Chen Tian’s nine-colored fist shot directly towards Xie Tianyi. Xie Tianyi also swung out his fists, and at the same time, the black dragon claws on them flickered with eerie black flames, their terrifying temperature permeating the surrounding air.
Chen Tian’s expression also turned solemn. Subsequently, the nine-colored scales on his body bloomed with dazzling light, and at the same time, azure flames appeared on his nine-colored dragon claws.
The two clashed once more. Chen Tian’s left fist aimed for Xie Tianyi’s neck. Simultaneously, his hands unclasped from fists, becoming like blades as they lunged towards Xie Tianyi. Xie Tianyi also swung his right arm, instantly deflecting Chen Tian’s hand blades. At the same time, Xie Tianyi raised his left leg and kicked directly at Chen Tian’s waist. Chen Tian slowly clenched his right hand and swung out, his fist colliding with the leg. Chen Tian’s body spun, and seeing this, Xie Tianyi brought his hands together, crossing them in front of him.
Chen Tian’s fists slowly hammered out, like falling meteorites. The nine-colored light was enveloped by azure flames. The Divine Fire Dragon Fist was unleashed. Both sides retreated. Chen Tian looked at Xie Tianyi before him. Their combat skills and awareness were almost on par.
Chen Tian wiped his mouth. Xie Tianyi’s figure flickered, and he instantly appeared behind Chen Tian. Simultaneously, he clutched the air with his left hand, and a black longsword slowly materialized.
Chen Tian’s senses issued a warning. His right hand spun behind him and clenched, and an azure Divine Fire Longsword instantly appeared behind his back. With a bang, an explosion sounded, and Chen Tian’s figure was sent flying back. Chen Tian then looked at Xie Tianyi behind him. Xie Tianyi, holding his sword with one hand, gazed at Chen Tian.
Chen Tian’s blue flame twin sabers appeared. The physical combat was over; now it was time for weapons.
At the same time, Chen Tian couldn’t help but marvel at the realism of the game "Chronicle of Time." A boss possessed the same combat capabilities and thought processes as a player. He couldn't gain the upper hand. In other games, the boss would have been dealt with long ago!
Chen Tian’s azure flame twin sabers materialized. The nine-colored dragon wings on his back slowly unfurled, instantly transforming into a nine-colored stream of light, charging towards Xie Tianyi. Seeing this, Xie Tianyi showed no reaction and simply watched Chen Tian rush towards him.
As Chen Tian arrived before Xie Tianyi, he unleashed his twin sabers. Countless azure saber lights flickered, their edges sharp. Xie Tianyi’s black longsword also moved. With a gentle swing, a terrifying black energy blade shot out, and the countless saber lights and edges instantly dissipated.
Chen Tian was stunned. Then, he seemed to recall something. His twin sabers once again shimmered with purple-ice crystals, the divine fire and divine ice combining to form the twin sabers. The blue-purple twin sabers looked as if they were made of amethyst, and within the amethyst, azure flames could be seen flowing and burning.
Chen Tian’s twin sabers lunged directly at Xie Tianyi. Seeing this, Xie Tianyi met him with his sword. Chen Tian’s twin sabers descended directly, and Xie Tianyi held his longsword horizontally in front, blocking the sabers. He then gently lifted his longsword. Chen Tian reacted, instantly retracting his sabers and crossing them in front. The longsword swept horizontally, striking Chen Tian’s twin sabers directly.
At the same time, Chen Tian retreated a few steps. Chen Tian looked at Xie Tianyi before him, various images flashing through his mind, and then he attacked.
The fearsome blue-purple twin sabers danced in Chen Tian’s hands, slashing and cutting, performing various movements. Instantly, terrifying saber energy and sword qi filled the entire space.
Seeing this, Xie Tianyi, who had been holding his sword with one hand, gripped the hilt with both hands and raised his black longsword. The black longsword emitted a faint glow. He then formed a thousand-handed Avalokitesvara gesture with his hands and opened them. Instantly, the black longsword transformed into countless swords, filling the space around Xie Tianyi. The black longswords spread from his head to his feet. Chen Tian’s twin sabers continued to move as if they would never stop. The saber energy filling the space began to converge.
Chen Tian’s face showed a hint of sweat. At the same time, Chen Tian gritted his teeth and persisted, "I must succeed this time!"
"Kill!"
Xie Tianyi saw Chen Tian’s expression and felt the surrounding energy fluctuations. He instantly attacked, slowly waving his hands. Countless black longswords shot out, raining down upon Chen Tian like an arrow storm.
Chen Tian, however, continued to swing his twin sabers. Chen Tian’s expression turned grim, and he clenched his twin sabers tightly, bringing them together in front of him. The countless saber lights converged. In Chen Tian’s hands, the twin sabers seemed to fuse with his arms. The immense blue-purple saber light moved with Chen Tian’s arm movements.
Chen Tian gently drew his arms, and with a swift swing, a blue-purple saber light shot out. Terrifying power erupted, extreme speed exploded, and the entire void instantly collapsed, shattering continuously.
The surrounding space became even more ethereal, turning into a void. There was no matter or energy.
Not even space existed. Chen Tian’s blue-purple saber light shot towards the countless black longswords. However, no matter how numerous the black longswords were, they were no match for the blue-purple saber light. Seeing this, Xie Tianyi brought two fingers together and then drew a straight line. Countless black longswords converged to form a giant sword. The sky-shattering giant sword charged towards Chen Tian’s blue-purple saber light.
The blue-purple saber light, dazzling and brilliant, intensely hot and cold, with sharp edges, was capable of cleaving through everything.
The black giant sword, extremely eerie and illusory, its energy scattered, was both real and unreal.
Skill: Thousand Flames Kill Cold Shadow!
Skill: Sword of Annihilation!
The clash of their ultimate weapon skills. They collided instantly. The black longsword showed signs of breaking but ultimately did not shatter. In the end, their moves resulted in a mutual destruction.
Chen Tian’s blue-purple twin sabers reappeared in his hands. Xie Tianyi looked at Chen Tian and nodded, saying, "You are worthy of pride to have forced me to use my true weapon!"
With a swish, a real black longsword appeared in Xie Tianyi’s hand. The sword was eight chi long, its blade black, and the entire sword resembled a cross. The hilt had black spheres inserted into grooves on both ends. A black sphere was embedded at the end of the hilt. Black patterns resembling swirling waves tightly clasped the hilt.
As the weapon appeared, Xie Tianyi’s aura surged, and his attributes increased by a thousand points. Chen Tian’s expression turned solemn. He activated his Divine Eyes, and the weapon’s information appeared in his mind.
Chen Tian then relaxed his grip. The blue-purple twin sabers dissipated, and a pair of golden twin sabers appeared in Chen Tian’s hands.
These were weapons transformed by the Polymorph Orb. Chen Tian could use them under any class or race, as they were his exclusive weapons. The characteristics of his opponent’s weapon compelled Chen Tian to use the Polymorph Orb.
Chen Tian and Xie Tianyi’s eyes met. Then, they clashed. Chen Tian’s beautiful twin sabers glided. Xie Tianyi swung his longsword, the tip and tail alternating. Chen Tian’s twin saber attacks were all blocked.
A clanging sound echoed as they continuously exchanged blows. Xie Tianyi’s Evil God Sword broke through a gap in Chen Tian’s twin saber defense from a tricky angle and lunged directly at Chen Tian’s waist.
Chen Tian shifted his body backward, missing by a mere centimeter. Chen Tian easily dodged. Skill: Extreme Dodge.
Chen Tian’s twin sabers then began to swing, attacking Xie Tianyi from both sides. Seeing this, Xie Tianyi alternated his Evil God Sword with both hands. Black shadows emanated from the Evil God Sword. Instantly, Chen Tian felt his strength significantly weakened.
Chen Tian looked at Xie Tianyi calmly. The previous effect was the ability of the Evil God Sword, which could reduce the opponent’s strength by thirty percent and suppress them. It was quite eerie, and its effect on energy bodies doubled.
This was why Chen Tian had chosen the Polymorph Orb twin sabers. While golden-quality weapons were not as potent as elemental weapons, they at least wouldn't be subjected to greater suppression and reduction.
A thirty percent reduction, doubled, became a sixty percent effect. Chen Tian was suddenly missing half his strength. However, using the twin sabers, his strength was only reduced by thirty percent, which was manageable. He had the skills "Evolving Physique Reinforcement" and "Growing Stronger with Each Battle" to directly offset this effect.
Chen Tian continued to swing, and Xie Tianyi continued to defend. Xie Tianyi stared intently at Chen Tian, then a cold glint appeared in his eyes.
The Evil God Sword moved instantly. Before Chen Tian’s twin sabers could fall, they were blocked. Xie Tianyi then attacked.
Chen Tian showed a surprised expression. His attack patterns had been seen through. His opponent was no longer afraid of his attacks.
Chen Tian watched the attacking Evil God Sword and calmly brought his twin sabers up to protect himself, his arms moving back and forth.
This time, it was Chen Tian’s turn to defend. Xie Tianyi’s attacking longsword transformed into countless sword shadows, shooting out. Chen Tian released his twin sabers, and they appeared beside him. Simultaneously, a blue half-shield and a purple-ice half-shield appeared on either side.
Skill: Twin Saber Guardian!
Skill: Ice and Fire Guardian!
With these two guardian skills activated, the countless sword shadows striking the shield’s light barrier had no effect.
Images flashed through Chen Tian’s mind. Then, his eyes emitted a gray-white light, and the twin sabers returned to his hands.
Simultaneously, he swung his twin sabers. The main body of the Evil God Sword was found and its movement was blocked by Chen Tian’s twin sabers.
The countless sword shadows dissipated. Xie Tianyi looked at Chen Tian with astonishment. Chen Tian’s lips curved slightly as he said, "You think only you can see through attack patterns? Sorry, I can too!"
Then, both of them retreated explosively, withdrawing their weapons. There was no need for them now; their weapon attack patterns had been seen through.
Every player and NPC had their own combat patterns. Once seen through, it was the most taboo thing in battle and could lead to fatal danger.
You might ask why they didn’t change their attack patterns. In a word, one’s own is the most effective. Once accustomed to one’s attack patterns, it was very difficult to change them. Forcing a change was fatal because it wasn’t yours and the fatal flaws were too obvious.
This was why they both put away their weapons. Since their weapon attack patterns had been seen through, they would compete in other ways. After all, their awareness and operational experience were about equal.
"Clap clap!" Xie Tianyi calmly clapped his hands, then nodded, "Not bad. As expected of the fated one, to be able to fight to this extent. However, this is merely a clone of mine. If my main body were here, I would personally eliminate you!"
"Do you think your main body could kill me? Ridiculous! Let’s settle this with our skills!"
Chen Tian said arrogantly, then giant blue fireballs slowly appeared in his hands. The Divine Fire Fireball was thrown out. Since their weapon attack patterns had been seen through, they would switch to elemental attacks.
As a dragon and also of elven descent, Chen Tian did not believe his elemental attacks would be seen through.
The giant, scorching, and chilling azure fireballs shot towards Xie Tianyi. Xie Tianyi calmly extended his hands. Terrifying black flame energy burned, and his claws were instantly enveloped in black flames.
He then flicked his wrist, and a giant claw formed of black flames shot out, colliding with the blue fireball, as if to grasp it.
An explosion sounded. Chen Tian and Xie Tianyi’s eyes met. On one side of Xie Tianyi and Chen Tian, blue flames and black flames enveloped the sky. Chen Tian pointed a finger, and countless blue firelights transformed into fire thorns, rushing towards Xie Tianyi.
Xie Tianyi’s eyes narrowed, and countless black fireballs shot out. Their attacks were like the volleys of gunfire on a battlefield.
The collision of fireballs and fire thorns made one think this was a cosmic battlefield, a battle in the sky.
The fire thorns were like lasers, and the fireballs were like energy spheres. They continuously collided.
As the residual shockwaves of the explosion dissipated, Chen Tian and Xie Tianyi were in a stalemate. Seeing this, Xie Tianyi brought his hands together, and terrifying black flames carrying the power of annihilation formed a shadowy silhouette of a black ancient dragon behind him.
Chen Tian was not to be outdone. Azure flames appeared behind him, transforming into a giant phoenix. The black ancient dragon and the azure phoenix instantly charged at each other.
With Chen Tian’s elemental mastery reaching the King rank, he could already transform into any creature.
It was worth noting that Chen Tian's elemental mastery was now at the King rank, a mastery that only King-level bosses possessed.
