āLong?!ā Domon called after seeing his attacker.
āPlease stay back, Master Domon. I donāt want to hurt your old bones,ā Long said. His words were polite, but his tone was very condescending.
āYou, insolent punk! Iām going to teach you some manners!ā Freddie yelled as he lunged. His fingers whipped forward using praying mantis style.
āWait! Donāt underestimate him!ā Domon called.
Freddie had heard about Long, but he had never fought him before. He didnāt believe this youngster was as troublesome as everyone said. Without access to skills, veteran martial artists like them should be able to teach these game-freak youngsters a thing or two.
Long also came forward. He moved his arms in a circular motion. A long eastern dragon materialized following his arm movement. The dragon swept forward with a force that shoved Freddieās two arms aside. Longās palm then pushed forward, landing squarely on Freddieās chest.
*PANG!*
Freddie was sent flying back as if cannonball. He crashed into his guildmates and toppled over.
āYou have improved again,ā Domon praised. At the same time, His glaiveās blade was as if multiplying into several blades that came slashing from various confusing angles. It was his Soul Pursuit Hurricane which had been modified to increase its lethality.
Despite Longās patronizing attitude, he didnāt look down on Domonās attack. He moved back as his two arms, strengthened by the iron hand technique, blocked Domonās glaives.
Not all the blades from Domonās Soul Pursuit Hurricane were real. Some were mere illusions. This in turn increased the difficulty for Long to block. He couldnāt differentiate between the real and fake. All the blades had Domonās mana signature. When he blocked the fake one, he lost momentum because he expected a resistant force but there was none. This opened him up and Domonās real blade managed to stab into his side.
However, the blade was stopped by an invisible wall one inch before Longās body.
āIron shirt,ā Domon muttered. He released one hand from his glaive. That free hand formed into a palm and struck the bladeless end of the glaive. The drive provided additional energy for the glaive to thrust forward, piercing Longās defensive mana.
But the brief pause provided by the Iron Shirt gave Long enough time to respond. His body swiveled and dodged the glaiveās thrust.
Following that swivel, Longās leg whipped toward Domonās head. Domon put one arm beside his head just as Longās feet arrived. Domon managed to block the lightning-fast kick, but Long had the strength of two classes. The impact sent Domon reeling back.
In a fraction of a second after Longās kick hit Domonās arm, his other leg whipped in the opposite direction. This second kick collided with Leavemealoneās fist. The impact sent the two tumbling back.
After Long separated Leavemealone from the others, Leavemealone was beset by many opponents. Even though he underwent a similar situation as Red Death, he fared better. This was because of several factors.
I think you should take a look at
Leavemealoneās equipment was slightly better. He wore two legendary armor. His unique-grade weapon was also better than a normal unique weapon because his was a growth weapon like Jackās. Moreover, the Battle Monk class was more equipped to fight multiple opponents compared to Assassin which was mostly a hit-and-run class. Last but not least, his martial arts expertise was better.
The multiple opponents who ganged up on him were now down on the floor. More were advancing but the break allowed him to come to Domonās aid.
Long wasnāt an opponent who left his back vulnerable, though. He sensed Leavemealoneās attack and responded appropriately.
āYou modified Twin Dragon Strikes into kicks. Impressive,ā Domon commented on Longās kicks just now. He positioned himself opposite Leavemealone so the two of them could pin Long in the middle.
āI would love to play with you two but I have a task to complete,ā Long uttered.
The muscles on his body bulged unnaturally. It was his Muscle Tendon Transformation. He then punched in Leavemealoneās direction. Nine miniature suns appeared and revolved around his arm as he punched forward.
Despite the fierceness of Longās Nine Yang Scorching Fist, Leavemealone didnāt back away. His two fingers stabbed forward as cold energy gathered at the tip of those fingers. This cold energy then expanded and rotated rapidly.
Longās back was exposed to Domon as he punched toward Leavemealone. Domon wasnāt someone who enjoyed hitting his opponentās back, but this was a battle. He couldnāt let his principle risk his discipleās safety. He stabbed using One Word Thrust.
His thrust was again stopped by Longās Iron Shirt. The Iron Shirt this time was even more solid because of the enhanced power from the Muscle Tendon Transformation, but Domon was prepared. He again used one palm and smashed the bladeless end of his glaive. This time, his palm smashed using the martial art Penetrating Wave Palm, his martial art that could bypass defense.
The penetrative energy from his palm was transferred to the other end of the glaive. The glaiveās blade vibrated as the penetrative energy passed through it. The energy made contact with Longās Iron Shirt. Like a piece of hot iron, the glaive pierced through, stabbing Long on his back.
The stab hit Longās vital part, but Long didnāt seem to care. His fist that carried the nine suns continued onward. These nine suns collided with the giant black drill from Nine Yin Abyssal Finger. The hot and cold energies were pressed against one another. The pressure was too high. The two energies reached a critical mass and exploded.
The other players who saw the explosion were startled. Nobody had been able to use any game skill or tool. What could have caused that massive explosion?šµššš®š„šš®xt.š¬ššŖ
Leavemealone and Long were thrown away by the explosion. Due to the force, Long was thrown back into Domonās glaive. The stab went in deeper and he suffered additional damage.
As for Leavemealone, he was thrown into the enemyās midst.
In the exchange just now, even though the Nine Yang Exploding Fist and Nine Yin Abyssal Finger were considered the same level of martial arts, the power of their wielders was not. Longās two classesā stats were higher than Leavemealoneās even with the boost from the Runestone of Combat. Therefore, Leavemealone was thrown further. Leavemealone also felt his head spinning from the impact.
When he landed, he couldnāt immediately react. Being in the enemyās midst with that condition was fatal. The enemies didnāt waste any time. They used their number and pressed against Leavemealoneās body while one of them used a runic rope to bind him.
