As the storm steps of Corey collided with the nine thousand sword-intent slashes similar to the previous time the nine thousand sword-intent slashes were being swept away by Coreyʼs storm steps but the Sword Spirit detonated the nine thousand sword-intent slashes as soon as all of them came in contact with the storm.

*Boom*

When the nine thousand sword intent slashes exploded the Strom paused for a second before it grew stronger and faster. Seeing this outcome, the Sword Spirit frowned, the Sword Spirit was expecting the explosion to put an end to Coreyʼs advance but it did not. Rather the storm seemed to have swallowed the explosion and grew stronger.

The Sword Spirit was in a bind as the storm grew closer to it. Unlike Corey, its power comes from the soul energy supplied by its master Joe, so it could not blatantly show its extreme skills like Corey and stuck to cost-saving but effective skills like the Death by thousand cuts. However, as the storm neared it, the sword spirit felt an abundant amount of soul energy pour into it, and heard the mental command of its master, ʼDonʼt worry about saving soul energy, take as much as you need and in return defeat that bitch no matter what. My life hangs on the result of this duel.ʼ

Receiving the command from its master, the Sword Spiritʼs eyes shone brilliantly as it began to borrow soul energy from him without holding and converting it into an A-rank sword intent, then it focused all of the sword intent at the edge of its dual words and launched an attack at the storm that was few meters away from it, ”Sword Cross, divide the world into four.”

Both the swords wielded by Sword Spirit simultaneously unleashed huge sword intent slashes in the form of a crimson crescent moon, one horizontally and the other vertically, forming a huge sword cross.

When the sword cross and the storm collided, it appeared as if everything in the warehouse had come to a sudden pause. This effect was due to the struggle between the sword cross and storm step trying to overpower each other. The sword cross was trying to cut through the suction force of the storm and cut it, two arts were displaying their extreme before the storm was cut into four pieces by the sword cross, while Corey was thrown back, crashing into the floor and tumbling for a while before reaching to sudden halt.

With unlimited soul energy at its disposal, the sword spirit showed off its true capabilities in the way of a sword. Even Laura, who was watching the duel with the crowd could not help but raise her eyebrow but she was not impressed because she performed a better sword cross at the quarter of the soul energy spent by the sword spirit.

Corey immediately got back on her feet and held her bleeding left shoulder. If not for her activating the rare-grade imperial blood demon body arts she too might have been cut into four parts by the Sword Spiritʼs sword cross just like the storm created by storm step.

Then switching her breathing technique to that of the rare-grade imperial blood demon body arts she immediately healed her left shoulder. Then she looked at the sword spirit having released that it was a lot stronger than she gave it credit for. Her Storm Step movement arts were considered unstoppable in the same realm however the Sword Spirit managed to stop it with two sword slashes. Only to hear Corey Park blame her, ʼTo think the unstoppable Storm Step was cut down by two sword strokes, you are a disgrace to my demonic movement and body arts.ʼ

ʼShut up,ʼ Corey yelled at Park for calling her a disgrace. She was already irritated, Corey was aware of the prowess of the Storm Step Movement arts from the memories of past reincarnation and blamed herself for not being able to display its true strength. She did not need Park to remind her of how much of a failure she was. Her hateful boss was one thing, but now this nameless jerk was also overpowering her Corey hated it.

As Corey was planning her next attack, she instinctively moved to the side dodging a concentrated beam of sword intent. Only to hear the Sword Spirit say, ”Kind warning, next time you get distracted I will aim for your heart.”

Sword-intent beam, the Sword Spirit concentrated a large amount of sword intent at the tip of its sword, when excited it launched itself in the direction the sword was pointed. A clever application of sword intent but it needs a lot of control, a normal card apprentice could not achieve this. Showing just how skillful the sword spirit was when it comes to the way of swords.

ʼCorey, forget what I said before, equip a set of gauntlets from my armory,ʼ Corey park said to Corey knowing that instead of firing the sword intent beam if the Sword spirit had used the tip of its dual swords to attack Corey at close combat then at Coreyʼs current level, the concentrated sword intent at the tip of the sword would pierce through Coreyʼs defense like a needle piercing a paper.

With Sage-level mastery in numerous body arts, Corey could take on the attacks of rare-grade weapons and skills head-on without much worry, so Corey Park planned to use this opportunity to help Corey train her body however she changed her mind seeing the Sword Spiritʼs flawless control over its sword intent. To the Sword Spirit, its sword intent was like a part of its body it could unleash the full potential of the A-rank sword intent with ease.

As the saying goes in the hands of a skillful assassin, even a blade of grass can become a weapon. Similarly in the skillful hands of the Sword Spirit A-rank sword intent was enough for it to display prowess beyond its realm. Making the sword intent of the sword spirit deadly.
