Chapter 1138 Done Toying With You
The sound of bones cracking erupted suddenly all over Skylar’s body as he glared at Jared’s back.
Jared spun around and found Skylar’s body on the ground like a grotesque heap of mud. An instant later, his body reconstructed on its own accord and stood upright again.
Once back on his feet, the bruises disappeared from Skylar’s face.
A dark light erupted from Skylar’s body as if he was shining from within.
“I will have you dead!” Skylar roared as a drop of blood, dark as ink, shot out between his brow.
He caught and manipulated it with his hands. The drop of ink-like blood suddenly began to burn with astonishing flammability.
Skylar’s body, meanwhile, was grilling in the blaze.
Every inch of his skin began to wither and turn into the color of black ink. Under the brilliance of the flame, his dark skin emitted a strange light.
The embers died, revealing the sheen of refined metal all over Skylar’s body while a terrifying cold rose from within him.
Jared smirked at the sight of the blackened Skylar. “That’s not what I meant by well-done. I never knew what a terrible cook your father taught you to be.”
Skylar was infuriated by Jared’s words. “I will tear your tongue out!” he raged, his eyes wide and unblinking.
Skylar dashed toward Jared and threw a ferocious punch.
Jared, on the other hand, rose to meet the challenge. His body disappeared in a flash of gold light before layers of scales began attaching themselves to his skin.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The two combatants launched assaults on each other with the most primal display of their strength.
Every strike sounded like metal clanging against one another.
Sparks flew in all directions as thunder crashed continuously.
Two shadow clones, of black and gold each, intertwined in the air. The terrifying martial energy spread in all directions.
No single structure in the estate was left intact except for Pentacarna Tower, which remained upright.
Boom!
Skylar and Jared each threw out a punch at the same time. Skylar’s fist landed ferociously on Jared’s chest like a cannon blast. The massive force of the terrifying gust of martial energy exploding upon impact caused Jared’s body to shake.
At the same time, Jared’s fist also landed on Skylar’s body which caused Skylar to stumble several paces backward with a similar explosive noise.
It appeared that Skylar was still inferior to Jared despite the extent of the former’s skill in magecraft.
Skylar roared with murderous intent.
An instant later, his body turned into a stream of flowing light before dashing at Jared with a bang that shattered the stratosphere.
“This is a good training opportunity.”
Jared narrowed his eyes as he, too, dashed forward.
Cultivation can increase power, but only constant battles will improve martial techniques and strength control.
Jared’s battle with Skylar gained him a deeper understanding.
Boom!
The noise of near-constant collisions between the two of them was deafening.
Jared channeled Sacred Light Fist and brought a barrage of golden fists down upon Skylar.
At the same time, Skylar unleashed a flurry of strikes that hammered down upon Jared.
The two of them went back and forth. It was, by that point, a duel between pure strength and physical endurance.
Boom!
The combatants leaped apart. Each was panting slightly for breath.
The battle incurred a massive expenditure of energy. Jared had managed to hold on thus far by relying on the spiritual energy in his elixir field and the Power of Dragons. Skylar, on the other hand, persisted with the use of magecraft.
“Is this all you got?”
Jared glared at Skylar with a scowl. “If it is, then I’m done toying with you.”
Skylar froze, an ugly expression contorting his features.
Despite constantly doing his best, Jared had managed to match it with the greatest of ease.
“Stop pretending this isn’t making you sweat. I know you’ve reached your limit as well. Next, I will show you the true extent of my power!”
As Skylar spoke, blinding black light exploded from him before it slowly broke free of his body and restored his skin to its normal color.
