Facing the man across from him, Liu Zhi silently drew the Thunder God's Destroyer Fang.
"Nice sword, but I've seen all your moves. The only one that's any use against me is the one that can destroy a valley. But have you noticed how slow you are?"
The man sneered. The next instant, he appeared beside Liu Zhi, his twin blades slashing toward Liu Zhi's neck from either side.
But before the blades could reach him, Liu Zhi's body flashed blue, and he retreated a hundred meters.
Then his body, as though made of plasma, slowly reassembled into human form.
This was an ability Liu Zhi had gained after his crystal skull had also become lightning elemental.
He could turn himself into lightning at any moment and move at the speed of lightning.
Of course, while moving in this state, Liu Zhi couldn't attack. At least, he couldn't control everything yet.
When his blade struck empty air, the man's expression darkened. He glanced at Liu Zhi. "That's an impressive elemental body. A combination of lightning and death elements—a fine choice. But you can't keep dodging forever."
With that, the man charged at Liu Zhi again.
He moved so quickly that he nearly matched Liu Zhi's retreating speed.
But Liu Zhi paid him no mind. He kept moving backward, circling the mountaintop.
No one noticed that every time Liu Zhi paused, he left behind traces of Death Lightning where he stood.
Before long, rain began to fall from the sky. It was hard to tell whether it was a result of their battle or something else.
The man gradually noticed Liu Zhi's movements. He glanced at the electric traces left on the ground. "You think you can use your body as a conduit to set up a Magic Array? You're dreaming."
