In the blink of an eye, streaks of light appeared as Sian waved his arm across the air. The colossal golden lance carved through space and was heading lethally toward Severin. Golden runes appeared between Sian's eyebrows. These runes pulsed with the scriptures of philosophy, and the gold-affinity energy in the surroundings activated as they surged into the lance. The heptagold energy strengthened it with each further strike.
Not one to be outdone, Severin faced the onslaught head-on and clasped his hands to form a seal. He channeled his chaotic sword energy to power the Sky-Soil Heptagold Sword Energy and launch his attack. The energy was ethereal and swift, piercing through the dense beams produced by the lance. The beam was shattered, and spiritual light cascaded down.
The remaining heptagold sword energy continued to advance toward Sian. Reacting on instinct, he swung his golden lance to attempt a desperate block. His technique might be the ultimate trump card, but there was no stopping the Sky-Soil Heptagold Sword Energy that was imbued with Severin's chaotic swordwill. Even a newly broken-through paragon would have to exercise some measure of caution when facing such an attack.
Sian's end was all but certain if he did not utilize any defensive equipment against the attack.
"Take this!" Severin roared as he swung the Scarletsky Sword again. A torrent of divine light was unleashed, and the golden lance was parried away. Sian stumbled back in shock and tried to use his hands to block the attack. Blood was already flowing from his lips as his pupils constricted, and a chilling sense of impending death gripped him.
He stared at Severin with a sliver of lingering terror in his eyes. At that fleeting moment when his weapon was blasted away, the heptagold sword energy had come within millimeters of grazing his head. It was thanks to his quick reflexes that he was able to escape grave injury.
