Chapter 1016: Fighting a Legend (I) Chapter 1016: Fighting a Legend (I) “BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!” The power that the bastard sword managed to unleash once its weight was no longer suppressed was beyond shocking.
The impact zone beca an epicenter of absolute devastation, blasting everything within a several-mile radius into nothingness.
Trees were uprooted, boulders shattered into dust, and the earth trembled as a shockwave radiated outward. The destruction extended until it consud an entire mountain, causing it to collapse in on itself with a thunderous roar.
The sheer force generated a windstorm that swept across the whole mountain range, creating a howling vortex of debris and chaos.
Cain’s eyes widened in surprise, awe, and thrill.
He watched in stunned silence as the dust and debris settled, revealing a landscape that the sword’s might had utterly transford.
Yet, the next second, a pained expression crossed his face.
The backlash from unleashing such trendous power was imdiate and brutal.
The muscles in his arms felt as if they had been torn apart; the bones reverberated with deep, bone-aching pain, and the tendons strained due to the intense pressure.
It was as if a thousand hamrs had struck his arms simultaneously.
Despite letting Sky Breaker fall on its own, Cain still needed to maintain control over it, and the recoil was rciless.
His arms quivered from the strain, the veins bulging, and the skin flushed red with the effort of containing the sword’s imnse power.
The recoil from the blast had nearly dislocated his shoulders, and he felt sharp, stabbing pains shooting through his joints.
“The damage is not too severe,” Cain muttered through gritted teeth, trying to assess his condition.
“But I will be able to perform fewer than ten strikes if I cannot handle the recoil.” A aningful expression appeared on Cain’s face as he calculated things, and the next second, his eyes glowed as he activated Steel Body.
Imdiately, he felt his endurance, strength, and even stamina enhanced, and the energy consud was so little he could keep it active all the ti without a problem.
Cain had read the moirs of the Sky Master from whom he took this ability and knew the Steel Body worked even better for him than for the man, most likely due to his higher Level and Spirit Force.
“Haha, Innate Abilities are limited and obtained by luck.
However, as they are born as part of your soul, they can display much greater power as you grow stronger, and the energy consumption is negligible, to say the least.” The uniqueness of the Crimson World once again marveled Cain, and the universal power that reigned over this realm was truly amazing.
A solemn expression appeared on Cain’s face as he took a deep breath, using Weight Manipulation to reduce the weight of the bastard sword again.
He calmly waved it, and as it reached its zenith and began its descending arc, he once more deactivated the Innate Ability, allowing Sky Breaker to express its full might.
“BOOOOOO”BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!” A new massive explosion occurred, shaking the entire mountain range.
Cain observed the widespread destruction with a broad smile that spread across his face.
Though his arms were still a little sore, there was no real damage.
Steel Body allowed his body to endure the recoil of handling such a heavy weapon’s fall.
With his confidence bolstered, Cain continued his training.
He launched himself into the air, rising above the treetops and rocky peaks.
Aerial combat posed a unique challenge, requiring him to master the timing and precision of his strikes without the stable ground beneath him.
Controlling the fall of Sky Breaker was particularly difficult; once it regained its full weight, the weapon threatened to drag him down from the sky.
Cain gripped Sky Breaker tightly and began to maneuver in mid-air.
He executed a series of complex aerial spins and flips, building montum.
At the peak of his ascent, Cain raised the bastard sword high above his head.
As he swung it down with all his might, he deactivated Weight Manipulation just as the blade began its downward arc.
“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!” The massive gale that erged from the blade was cataclysmic.
A shockwave erupted from the point of contact, sending tremors through the air and generating powerful gales in all directions.
The sheer force of the attack cleaved through the landscape below, leaving a deep, gaping chasm in its wake.
Trees were reduced to splinters, and boulders were pulverized into dust.
The air cannons created by the swing could easily obliterate anyone beneath Level 18 in their path.
Cain felt the familiar strain in his arms as the recoil surged through his body, but Steel Body mitigated the damage, allowing him to maintain control.
As soon as the attack was over, he reactivated Weight Manipulation, instantly reducing the weight of Sky Breaker and preventing it from dragging him earthward.
He hovered in the air, breathing heavily, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction.
The training session continued, with each strike being more precise and powerful than the last.
Cain’s mastery over Sky Breaker improved as he adapted to the demands of aerial combat.
Massive gales of air flashed in all directions every ti he swung the sword, creating devastating air cannons.
He maintained Eye of Gluttony activated during the training, constantly consuming the energy around him to replenish his reserves and enhance his endurance.
Cain trained relentlessly for five hours, pushing his limits until his body was exhausted and drenched in sweat.
Finally, he descended back to the surface of the mountain range, the bastard sword by his side.
Once on the ground, he released Sky Breaker, allowing it to bury itself into the earth.
Cain then adopted a ditative position, focusing on regulating his breath and restoring his energy.
“Ahhh,” Cain sighed as he understood a little more of his new strength.
“The destructive power I can release now rivals what I could achieve in the final stages of the Apotheosis Realm, but my physical might and endurance are still lacking.
I guess it makes sense-my real body had the Primordial Inheritance, so its stamina is completely different from that of a normal human body.”
