Chapter 582 - Heritage Armor (1/2)

“Your moves are useless!” White Cloth did not even so much as flinch as he witnessed Lin Jie’s magnificent Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes, one of the Nine Great Techniques. He straightened up in confidence as he collided head-on with the Broken Blade.

Lin Jie was surprised but kept his demeanor as Blood Vigor emitted continuously from Broken Blade. He would like to find out where this White Cloth got all his confidence from.

Clang—

Lin Jie felt a vibration through his wrist as Broken Blade slashed White Cloth’s satin apparel and an odd sensation spread from the web between the thumb and forefinger. This aggressive move seemed to penetrate cotton as its strength was being stripped away. Immediately after that, the spongy satin turned sturdy and made use of Anti-Slash to crush Broken Blade onto Lin Jie’s shoulder!

Boom! Bang! Boom!

Lin Jie’s three consecutive sword moves only caused him further pain and torture on his shoulders, but did not have any effect on White Cloth! This was the preemption of failure.

“I said, your moves are useless.” White Cloth remained cool and extremely relaxed, as though the current situation was no big deal. This was an effort to crush his opponent’s confidence, resulting in their surrender! He was well-versed with the art of battling. If his opponents desired to crush him, he would be at ease and dissipate all of their self-deemed strongest attacks.

However, Lin Jie paid no attention to him as he realized that the reason for that attack failure wasn’t due to White Cloth’s manipulation. Instead, it was because of the equipment he was covered in—it was capable of disassembling attacks and reflecting strength judgments, countering all the damage suffered.

Lin Jie’s eyebrows rose. “Could this be… No, it can’t!”

Condescendingly White Cloth laughed when he thought that Lin Jie’s muttering was signifying his loss in confidence. He wielded his green sword and shouted, “Baizhan Anti-Slash!”

Baizhan Anti-Slash was one of the Berserkers’ Nine Great Techniques! Corresponding to Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes, Baizhan Anti-Slash made use of consecutive blockings to ward off the opponent’s blows whilst conserving power for the final Anti-Slash move. This was the best method to curb consecutive strikes skills!

“Die!” Lin Jie’s eyes were crimson red as he whipped Broken Blade and unleashed all the Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes moves. He slashed ferociously onto White Cloth’s green sword. White Cloth made use of his mysterious equipment to dissipate every collision between the blade and his shoulders, lower abdomen, chest, and other body parts in an effort to accumulate the Anti-Slash power.

The sound of clanging metals filled the sky!

At the East Gate, the 3,000 Brotherhood members and Supreme Tribe members’ jaws dropped as they stared at the mid-air battle.

Lin Jie was ferocious as his Broken Blade’s attacking speed was on par with Bandits’, while emitting way stronger Blade Aura. Broken Blade was already thick and blunt, but it was sharp and acute when held by Lin Jie as it ripped apart the atmospheric layers.

His opponent maintained a calm composure as his green sword blocked down each attack. His left hand was kept behind his back all this while, as those giving a handicap to a child.

What scale was this battle on?

“Lone Wolf’s Blade Aura is amazing! It goes half circle after being whipped out. It’s such a wicked manipulation! It’s way cooler than those usual stiff auras.”

“The other guy isn’t too bad either. It was rumored that Lone Wolf’s Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes could instakill any creature. Previously, it even instakilled Baili Xuanyuan, who was at his peak. However, this man is blocking all the attacks without much effort.”

“These two crazy abnormalities!”

On the battlefield, both parties were indifferent and calm.

Anyone who showed a hint of fatigue or even a drop of sweat would have lost!

Clink— Clink— Clink— Clink—

Their weapons collided countless times within the short span of one minute. Lin Jie’s Blood Vigor grew stronger as time passed, and Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes’ strongest move was about to complete! White Cloth also emitted a huge green aura as his Baizhan Anti-Slash was ready to be unleashed. As Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes’ 99th attack was unleashed, the sword slashed onto the green sword and pierced into White Cloth’s chest.

“Hmph.” A smile crept up White Cloth’s mouth. “You have fallen into my trap! My Baizhan Anti-Slash has been absorbing your Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes’ strength, and it will be used against you. Your attacks have been futile against me, but I am capable of instakilling you! It’s over for you! Do you know why? Hahaha!”

“The Heritage Armor, right?” Lin Jie said indifferently.

White Cloth was stunned as the mockery and sniggers got stuck at his throat. After a long pause, he finally blurted out, “Guess you are sensible.” After speaking, he absorbed this wield’s strength again before excluding it onto Lin Jie’s shoulder!

That’s right. He was equipped with the Twelve Heritages’ Heritage Armor. Its edge over Broken Blade was that all its seals had been removed! One of the armor’s special effects was its ability to absorb physical attacks that landed on it and reflect Strength Judgment. When the judgment reached a certain value, it would generate Repel or even Flick.

Once Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes was interrupted, it would be useless!

“Die! Heritage Armor, reflect! Baizhan Anti-Slash!” White Cloth growled and released the strength judgment of 100 strikes towards Lin Jie! He unleashed Baizhan Anti-Slash at the same moment. As a skill that was on par with Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes—its explosive strength was comparable as well!

“Holy Light Winged Armor! Poseidon’s Scales!” Hideous-looking scales began sprouting from Lin Jie’s body as a pair of wings grew from his back.

White Cloth slashed towards Lin Jie vehemently! Black holes were ripped from the atmosphere, as though meteors had sliced open the deep beyond and shot towards Lin Jie!

“Don’t you think it’s too late to defend now?” White Cloth sneered.

Whoosh—

As the blade swooped down, Lin Jie was nowhere to be found.

“Sh*t!” White Cloth’s pupils constricted as Lin Jie shifted! How could a Warrior be capable of that? He swiped his green sword to the back as he went into a defensive stance. He accurately and expertly pinpointed Lin Jie’s location.

“Is it too late to defend now?” Lin Jie’s mocking voice sounded from the back as Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes’ magnificent Blade Aura slashed from top-down, almost slicing White Cloth in half! The Heritage Armor attempted to defend, but it was futile! This was because it was unable to activate its special effect.
