Chapter 45: Gut feeling


    Once hended with his back to the ground. He kicked his leg around which caused him to spin on his back, then he rolled over to his head into a headstand and pushed up with his hand to stand back on his feet.


    The instant hended, he shouted


    Great swordsman deadly sh!


    He swung his hand at the Ironblood founder in a shing pattern.


    Two long and wide beams of energy shot out of his hands at the Ironblood founder. These beams gave the feeling they could cut through six-inch thick steel.


    At the same moment Jake sent out his attack, the man he duelled with sent out his attack.


    Dragons ying sword!


    He discharged an enormous beam of energy at Jake.


    Bang!


    Both attacks shed in the air and arge sphere of vacuum surfaced before ripples of energy erupted, shattering everything in their path.


    The earth beneath their attacks'' points of collision shattered. One could seerge web-like cracks in those ces.


    The moment Jake engaged the Ironblood founder in a duel, Alex too began to fight it out with the members of Ironblood.


    Sky burning me!


    Crushing ice fist.....!


    Dozens of powerful attacks were sent out at Alex. But before they could unleash their attacks, he moved speedforce energy to his eyes.


    The instant he did, the power of the energy affected the speed of everything in his eyes. They started to move slowly in his eyes. He could see the energy-attacks moving towards him in slow motion. The energy had affected his perception of the speed of the attacks.


    Then he ran towards the attacks. There were two of the attacksing at him. They had been discharged before the others could release theirs.


    One of the two attacks shot towards him from the left, he twisted to the right dodging it. While the other came from the right, he turned to the left skillfully evading it.


    Then since he could see them move in slow motion, he saw the gaps between the attacks. Being careful, he moved into the gap between the attacks.


    When people who had gone into different ces to hide away from being hit by stray energy-attacks saw Alex enter into the of attacks, their eyes widened in surprise.


    They saw how Alex moved through the of attacks. He was like a fish in water. His movements were very fluid and were fast.


    Since he could see everything in slow motion, it affected his own speed. This wasn''t an effect produced by him but by the energy that saturated his eyes.


    Once he came out of their attacks, he inhaled deeply and out through his mouth.


    The air that he blew out of his mouth turned into a powerful gust of wind that had the capacity to throw arge rock into the distance. The air had mysteriously turned into an unusually strong wind current.


    The men''s eyes glowed in astonishment. Then they recovered once he came out and quickly produced protective screens of energy the moment they saw him try to unleash an attack.


    Bang!


    The screens they abruptly condensed from the energies they cultivated shattered like sses that had arge stone hurled at it.


    But the gale-force wind attack didn''t end there. Once it destroyed their screens of energy, the wind swept dozens of them into the distance of about twenty feet where they crashed heavily into the ground at a height of fifteen feet.


    This was a battle method called the ''Breath of Abyssal Beast''. A method from the wind trinity methodology he studied.


    This attack was powerful because the air he inhaled mixed with windforce energy and slivers of divineforce energy which Alex channelled to his lungs.


    The other men who weren''t washed away by the gale looked at Alex in slight fear. This boy, it was like his means were infinite. They wondered what grade of battle methodology he studied.


    ...


    The moment Alex dodged the attacks, they went forward to Jake and the Ironblood founder.


    Once the both of them felt the attacksing towards them. They executed aerial flips skillfully evading the attacks beforending.


    Once theynded, Jake quickly ran towards the Ironblood founder. He jumped high into the air towards the Ironblood founder who saw it as an opportunity to deal a great damage on Jake.


    Predicting what the Ironblood founder was about to do, Jake twisted in the air dodging the beam of energy sent at him by the Ironblood founder.


    Hended before the man who punched out towards Jake''s head. Jake stepped back moving out from the range of the punch.


    He raised his knee and brought it to his chest, then he sent out a heavy kick to the man''s torso. Once the kick connected to the man''s torso, he was shoved back by many feet crashing into the earth heavily.


    The moment he stood up, Jake appeared in front him. Before he could do anything, Jake did a back flip and while airborne, in the horizontal position, he swung his leg out powerfully to the chin of the Ironblood founder as he flipped over in the airnding back on his feet.


    k!


    Jake delivered a bone-crushing kick to the jaw of the Ironblood founder. This kick was made more powerful by the momentum Jake moved with, as he was flipping over.


    The kickunched the man high into the air who plunged back to the earth at a distance of six feet.


    Foosh!


    With a flying kick, Jake pierced through the air like an arrow.


    Bang!


    He delivered a hard kick in the face of the Ironblood founder.


    Argh!


    He shrieked in pain as he was thrown away into the distance by the kick.


    ...


    The men looking at Alex with slight fear in their eyes regained their ferocity.


    So what? He''s just a kid at the mid-phase entry stage. He must be using a forbidden technique that''s augmenting his attack. We can take him.


    Then they rushed towards Alex while the others who had fallen in the distance had gotten back to their feet and began running towards Alex again.


    Alex shook his head


    Stubborn bastards!


    He wasn''t happy with this. What''s the point of having great strength and not able to use it.


    He had many battle-methods at his disposal that could instantly y all these men. Like any of the methods in the ''Worldbreaking Overlord Golden Fist'' methodology, which were amplified by something in his body he couldn''t understand.


    He had figured out that the various primordial energies he was exposed to was the one responsible for the augmentation of the destructive capacity of any of the attacks he produced from deployment of the battle methods in the fist methodology.


    But he had preserved that as hisst card or surprise card. He would only use it when caught up in critically dangerous situations. It was extremely powerful he knows, so as the strongest of all his attacks, only in dire asions would he use it.


    Now, he needed to end this fast. He didn''t know who was watching. Once he did, he would leave here with Jake. This was because he felt someone was watching him.


    His gut feeling was right. Someone was watching him with amazement through a powerful sense. This person gazed at him with a smile that couldn''t show any of the the person''s motive.


    Then the person flew out from a building in the far distance towards them.


    Alex suddenly felt strange. Was something bading his way? He needed to end this fast.


    Wind Fist!


    He punched out nine times at the men dashing over with fierceness radiating from their eyes.


    Every time he punched out, a glowing cyan fist of energy shot of it.


    These fists summoned air very quickly in all directions which wrapped them andpacted to be solid.


    Since they had this attribute of boundless growth, the fist formed from air that had wrapped around the glowing fist of energy and had formed into a fist continued to increase in size.


    In a few seconds, it had quickly grown from a feet to dozens of feet and still continued to grow rapidly.


    Bang! Bang....!


    Loud bang sounds rang out as the men were knocked into the far distance. They screamed in pain as their bones cracked when the fist-attacks smashed into them.
