Chapter 1102: Soul Severing Fist

The Soul Severing Fist Demon, Baalgua-this was a name that struck fear into the hearts of those who heard it in the Seven Realms. Wherever that man went, disaster soon followed and only a trail of destruction was left in his wake.

There was once a disciple from a well-known sect that insulted the Soul Severing Fist Demon without knowing his identity. As a result, that disciple along with his entire sect was erased from the Seven Realms without a trace.

More terrifying, the bodies of the disciple and his fellow sect members were all found in a horrifying state that looked as if they had fought an actual demonic being. The most tragic part was that there were no traces of their souls. This meant that they could never enter the reincarnation cycle and would be doomed to roam the world in between the living and the dead for all eternity.

Naturally, the cause of this was the Soul Severing Fist Demon, Baalgua. His fist techniques were otherworldly. At its peak, it was said to be able to separate a person's body from their soul with a single strike.

The Endless Chained Strikes was one of the first techniques of the Soul Severing Fist. Its purpose was to get the opponent to lower their guard due to its weak initial attack power as well as to disrupt the opponent's meridians secretly. By the time one realized what was going on, it was too late and their defenses would be completely broken through. Furthermore, the true attack power behind the Endless Chained Strikes would start to show in full force.

Just as Peaceful Chaos braced himself for Izroth's following strike, something unexpected happened. Instead of pressing on with his barrage of attacks, Izroth retreated back a couple of meters.

"What is he up to?" Peaceful Chaos muttered to himself with a frown.

The damage from Izroth's attacks was becoming increasingly difficult for him to keep up with; therefore, Peaceful Chaos was calmly waiting for a window of opportunity to launch his counterattack. He did not know why Izroth halted his attacks; however, he was not someone who would let go of an advantage presented to him.

Woosh!

Out of nowhere, Peaceful Chaos found himself shot forward toward Izroth's direction.

"An ambush...?! No, a skill?!" Peaceful Chaos thought to himself as he temporarily lost control of his body.

However, after barely managing to turn his head to catch a glimpse at what was behind him, Peaceful Chaos noticed that there was no one there.

"Just now, I'm certain something hit me in my back..!" Peaceful Chaos scowled inwardly.

Peaceful Chaos had been launched forward as though he had been abruptly fired from a slingshot.

As he approached Izroth's position and attempted to regain control of himself, Izroth slightly stretched his arm outward with his hand in a fist. At the same time, a swirling vortex of wind gathered in front of his fist and seemed to be ever so slightly influencing the direction that Peaceful Chaos was headed.

Then, right as Peaceful Chaos was about to crash into Izroth uncontrollably, Izroth shifted his stance and twisted his body as his fist shot straight with ruthless precision.

BANG!

Izroth's fist slammed into Peaceful Chaos' torso. Or, to be more precise, it was as if Peaceful Chaos was pulled into the exact position to be struck by his fist with minimal effort and maximum result.

Peaceful Chaos eyes widened as the he felt the wind knocked out of him. After being struck by Izroth's fist, he was able to gain back control of his body. But, that moment was short-lived as he was sent flying back several meters as his body crashed into the ground.

[System Alert: Congratulations, you have created a new skill. Please name the skill.

'Oh? I was worried that the system would not acknowledge it because of the method I used. But, to think I succeeded on the first try.'

Peaceful Chaos was not ambushed from behind as he initially suspected. Nor was it a random bug that caused him to lose control of his own body momentarily. Rather, it was all due to Izroth's use of the Law of Wind.

While the Law of Wind from the Vessel of Laws ability attached to his Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence was only an imitation of the real thing and had a limit to its usage at its current strength, Izroth made up for its shortcomings with precise control.

Izroth focused the Law of Wind to a single point at Peaceful Chaos' back, causing him to be caught off guard and be swept forward. After that, he carefully and continuously adjusted the Law of Wind surrounding Peaceful Chaos to stiffen his body, essentially locking it in place. As for the swirling vortex in front of his fist, Izroth used it as a means to aid in altering Peaceful Chaos' "flight" path so that he would perfectly align with the strike from his fist.

All this was done in less than a single breath and so seamlessly that one would find it difficult to believe it was not the work of a skill.

[System Alert: Generating skill... Complete![]

'It's only one of the second techniques of the Soul Severing Fist, but it's already reached this rank?'

Skill Name: Cosmic Seizing Vortex

Skill Creator: Izroth

Skill Level: 1/4

Skill Rank: S

Energy Cost: 60

Active: The user pulls a target within 3 meters toward their fist. The target pulled in by this skill is unable to act for the duration of the pull. Upon making contact with the user's fist, the target receives 300% of the user's attack as physical damage and is «> for 4 seconds.

Description: A skill created by Izroth that draws in an opponent and creates an opportunity to change the flow of a fight.

Cooldown: 7 seconds

Cosmic Seizing Vortex-it was a technique that allowed one to draw an opponent into their strike. In this case, while its damage was somewhat lacking for an S-ranked skill, Izroth knew that its true worth was in its crowd control and low cooldown time. For a brief moment, the opponent would be left virtually defenseless and unable to react. More so, there was no forewarning to prepare for it. It was skills like this that could create windows of opportunity in a battle that were among the deadliest when it came to PVP.

Meanwhile, Peaceful Chaos struggled to his feet as the world around him spun, making it challenging for him to maintain his balance as he staggered about for a few seconds.

"What a complete and utter mess." Peaceful Chaos muttered to himself with a dreary

expression.

What was supposed to be an easy chance to regain the face of his Blue Oasis and find some benefits along the way had transformed into something beyond his expectations.

Peaceful Chaos released a heavy sigh as he stood up straight with his gaze locked onto Izroth in the near distance. He was wondering why Izroth kept disengaging from his assaults after having him on the ropes; however, it suddenly donned on him. This whole time, Izroth was not taking their fight seriously.

From the moment he offered that bet to duel with Izroth, Peaceful Chaos realized that nothing had ever been in his control.

"In the end, everything must have gone exactly as you predicted, huh?" Peaceful Chaos muttered to himself as he looked down at the ground.

His gaze then lifted once more as a certain sharp was contained within it. "You were probably looking down on me and Blue Oasis this entire time..!" Peaceful Chaos grit his teeth angrily as a small flashing light pulsed from the palm of his hand. Right after the flashing light vanished, an object appeared in Peaceful Chaos' palm.

The object was a half-white and half-black flat circular disc perfectly fit into Peaceful Chaos' palm. There were ancient magic engravings of unknown origins that shown with a light

golden hue.

'Hm?'

Izroth carefully examined the item in Peaceful Chaos' palm.

"You bastard! Let's see how much longer you can look down on me!" Peaceful Chaos roared as

an intense light and power erupted from the item in his hand.

The next moment, Izroth felt a strange power flood into his body. At the same time, when he

tried to move his hand, the action was so incredibly slow that even someone at level one would be several times faster!

"Let's see what you do without that speed of yours!" Peaceful Chaos stated with a grin. [Battle Alert: Player Izroth has been affected by the magic item !
