The Lizakh warrior glared at Randidly several seconds as though suspicious he was mocking him But seeing RandidlyÆs straightforward look he seemed to be mollified Hmm I suppose youÆve probably never seen anything like it huh Well there should be no harm in showing you just a little You take a thin channel of the Grand PatternÆs force and split it in two Then you torque both streams in different directions
The shade struck A spiraling piercing attack shook the surrounding area and briefly knocked the mist backward For that reason alone Randidly could only raise his eyebrows in shock being able to briefly delay the suppressing mist was more than he could accomplish
His emerald eyes glittered as he replayed the attack and notice the ingenious way the Lizakh utilized force To be honest in terms of multiplying the power of a small amount of natural energy the Lizakh was quite a bit more proficient than Randidly He just couldnÆt host a walking natural disaster
Which was perhaps cheating
Can I see it again Randidly asked The way you utilize force is pretty impressive
Too quick to catch it Heh you are starting to see my charm Watch closely The Lizakh grinned Then he threw out several palm strikes in a row The mist almost hissed in distaste as it was forced backward The curling strikes smashed against the strange material of the stairs throwing off sparks without damaging it at all But the mist could only begrudgingly give up ground before the curling attacks
RandidlyÆs eyes glowed His hands twitched mimicking the movements of the Lizakh

After a few casual swings releasing brief flourishes of spinning wind RandidlyÆs eyes sharpened to something deadly His next palm strike incorporated a few lingering lines of natural energy into the attack unleashed a twisting drill of wind that show forward and smacked against the imperturbable stone of the staircase The heavy mists in the surrounding area stirred but were not forced backward
Congratulations Your Skill Tempest Drill has grown to Level 247

The Lizakh goggled You you really just copied my technique ahem since it has come to this let me offer you some advice There are several flaws in your execution
Randidly nodded without any pretense the LizakhÆs judgment was true Compared to the ability to condense elegant miniatures of the Grand Pattern that the Lizakh demonstrated Tempest Drill was relatively weak However what it lacked in pure power it more than compensated with speed of use and flexibility Because while the base ability wasnÆt anything particularly special if he forced the might of an entire storm through that strike
RandidlyÆs hands lashed outward tearing through the air Bit by bit more of the suffocating mist was pushed back
Congratulations Your Skill Tempest Drill has grown to Level 249

Besides Randidly mused to himself Because of how low Level this Skill is IÆll be able to grind quite a bit of PP off of it while we ascend In addition the current Rarity is only Ancient If I can gain a bit more insight into its usage I bet that can at least reach Mythic
Quite pleased with these developments Randidly ignored the disbelieving mutterings of the Lizakh shade and turned his attention to his Path screen He had once more shot up to almost 3400 PP during his time on the Path of Blood it was the fastest growth in terms of PP that Randidly had experienced for years Combined with the steady development of his new utilization of natural energy the Randidly who walked out of the mountain would be a much more dangerous version than had walked in
His fangs steadily sharpened under the pressure of the Grand Pattern
He even had earned two new Path options However RandidlyÆs expression became heavy when he saw the first one
Disciple DonÆt hold back The Lizakh shade shouted Perhaps my heroic figure inspired you to imitate me but this enemy cannot be beaten by typical means Trample him directly
Randidly ignored the shade He pivoted around and pounced forward again His hands twisted in midair gathering natural energy just through his movements That energy spiraled through his forearms and erupted from his palms The air whistled through his fingers
Congratulations Your Skill Tempest Drill has grown to Level 275
Congratulations Your Skill Philosophy within the Boundless Deluge has grown to Level 532
Again the shade shook his head clearly very aggrieved by the whole situation Its hands curled in a particular pattern coopting the force of the Tempest Drills and pushing them to the side RandidlyÆs eyes flashed the method this figure used was very similar to the way that had absorbed the wind blades in the lower Steps Albeit with much more finesse and using a smaller movement
Still Randidly had no intention of trying to resist that effect directly His smile inched outward revealing hungry teeth His arms twisted and strained to avoid the redirection but he didnÆt incorporate any of his insights of the Grand Pattern to counter the effect Without much suspense his palm strike hit a golden pillar again and dispersed
The muscles of RandidlyÆs core tightened as he rebounded and began to cut again at the shade with Tempest Drill More and more natural energy seethed around RandidlyÆs body as he began to build up momentum
Congratulations Your Skill Tempest Drill has grown to Level 276
Congratulations Your Skill Cutting Tide of Amenonuhoko has grown to Level 580
Congratulations Your Skill Tempest Drill has grown to Level 277
Fine fine The long haired shade muttered as he redirected RandidlyÆs attacks again Tire yourself out Torture me Haah why am I cursed like this Just let me sleep in peace
Randidly continued to strike His palms were pushed to the side but he shifted his weight more adeptly and transferred his power with even greater efficiency He felt the way the Grand Pattern moved through his body and sharpened that blade The air around him began to hum as the force he gathered grew so large that a portion of it twisted out around the golden pillar harmlessly churning the surroundings
Even if the attack didnÆt land that didnÆt mean it was meaningless That energy could then be pulled back through his body empowering his next strike even further Randidly didnÆt condense a storm but soon whirlwinds churned around his limbs
Congratulations Your Skill Tempest Drill has grown to Level 278
Congratulations Your Skill Tempest has grown to Level 301
You The long haired shade watched Randidly accelerate with bulging eyes
Chapter 1826
Whoossh
The Lizakh shade blinked several times as he watched the confrontation in front of him continue to develop He could not remember his name or family just that he studied the Grand Pattern and longed for nothing more than to climb to the summit However watching this black haired human utilize his strike to defeat the guardian of the ninth platform he felt the significance of the moment carved onto his soul
He could barely breathe he couldnÆt stop trembling And the fact that the human copied his strike
