Angela was unsure as to what Ella meant when she said that she would see what Lex had been doing the entire time, but then she suddenly say something that shocked her greatly.

The Master of the Blood Sword Group, who was just about to land another attack on Lex that had been battered and appeared to be on the verge of losing, began to vomit blood. While it also wasn't a small amount of blood, but large amounts of dark red blood that uncontrollably burst out of his mouth.

Lex's Shockwave Fist attacks were finally beginning to show their effects, and Lex was impressed by the damage he was able to deal with them. While he also made the most of the opening that presented itself, with the Master of the Blood Sword Group being even more stunned than Angela.

That instant of shock, hesitation and confusion was exactly what Lex had been waiting for and looking for as he suddenly launched himself towards him and had extreme amounts of energy in both of his fists and arms.

Reinforcing his arms to be able to handle the impact of his attacks, Lex had managed to fuse the Penetrative Fist Skill he had previously created and the Shockwave Fist Skill to produce the Penetrative Shockwave Fist Skill. The ultimate Fist Skill for dealing internal damage to an opponent.

He used the Body Jolt Skill to suddenly appear before the Master of the Blood Sword Group and struck him with the Penetrative Shockwave Fist Skill that he had activated in both fists.

Already injured internally, Lex's sudden and powerful attack that he unleashed from both fists launched the giant man flying backwards and knocking down dozens of trees as he crashed into the ground, forming a crater where he landed.

In an instant, the battle that appeared to be completely one-sided from an outside perspective completely flipped, and it seemed as though the tides had changed. That wasn't to say that Lex had won or had a complete advantage, but now the battle appeared to be on much more even footing.

Seeing what had happened, Ella was expecting as such from Lex, while Angela couldn't help but smile and cheer him on as if he could hear him, while the Blood Sword Group members that were watching were horrified.

It dawned on them that if their master died; they were likely to all be slaughtered, and escaping from the monster that managed to do it would be impossible. But at the same time, they looked over to their master and were relieved to see that he didn't seem to be too impacted by Lex's powerful attack, and began to cheer him on.

Getting up, the Master of the Blood Sword Group wiped some blood that was leaking from his mouth and had a smile on, but it wasn't one that was happy, but one that was twisted and sinister.

"You believe this will be enough to kill me, then you are crazy. I admit, I underestimated you and you are very capable, but this is far from enough," he said as he launched himself to where Lex was.

However, he didn't attack Lex, and Lex also didn't avoid or attack him, almost as if both of them knew what the other was thinking and about to do.

"So, when are you going to draw that sword of yours? I am dying to try out your swordsmanship," asked Lex.

"Now. You are worthy of experiencing my blade, and once I cut you down, I will make sure that I don't kill you and hand you in alive to the 13th elder. You have angered me and I would love to kill you. But if I deliver you to him alive, not only will he praise me and reward me with his cultivation method, but he will also make me his closest subordinate. That way, I will no longer have to lead this weak and stupid ragtag bunch," he answered as he unsheathed his blade.

It was a large sword, but compared to his giant body, it appeared quite small, while it was a beautiful blade that didn't suit his brutish appearance. The blade was elegant and expertly crafted, as it gleamed in the hands of the giant man.

"Nice blade," praised Lex.

"I will be mine once I kill you, and after killing you, I will be sure to kill these subordinates of yours that you call a weak and stupid ragtag bunch. As for your master the 13th elder, he is merely a stepping stone for me, and I will kill all the elders of the Blood Moon Sect, along with the sect master," he added, enraging the Master of the Blood Sword Group, but also amusing him.

"You don't stand a chance against me and now that I have drawn my blade, defeating you is inevitable. And after hearing you talk, I feel more and more like killing you. As for the elders and the great master, you aren't even worthy of being in their presence and once they recover to their peak states, the Lower Plains will become their playground," he declared, clearly very loyal towards the 13th elder and the Blood Moon Sect.

"What a dog. You will never amount to anything, and I will beat you at your own game," mocked Lex as he formed a sword out of energy in his right hand, using the Item Creation Skill.

The sword he produced was identical to the one that the giant man was wielding, and in his hand appeared to be oversized, but was easy for him to handle with his powerful and skilled body.

"You want to fight with a sword. You are better off using that flame of yours, as once my blade is drawn, I can no longer hold back and will struggle to stop myself from killing you," he stated as he began to back away from Lex.

"We will see about that," responded Lex as he did the same.

After creating some distance from themselves, both wielding identical blades, they glared at each other as they prepared themselves to engage in a battle of swordsmanship.
