“How do you make such huge claims without feeling even the least bit embarrassed? I’ll show you what I’ve got today!” Lamar bellowed. With a roar, he dashed forward and made a grabbing motion in the air. Instantly, a long whip appeared in his hand out of nowhere, and he lashed it in Jared’s direction.
In the face of Lamar’s attack, Jared did not panic in the slightest. Instead, he simply stepped to the side and dodged the whip. Like a venomous snake, Lamar’s whip whizzed past Jared and struck the ground right next to him. A giant plume of dust and dirt flew up from the long trench in the earth that had been left behind.
As soon as Lamar realized Jared had managed to escape the first hit, he swung his whip again, which then began to move so quickly that it seemed to multiply by itself.
Surrounded by countless images of Lamar’s whip, Jared had nowhere to dodge. At that sight, he immediately activated the Power of Dragons. It flowed out of his body and took the form of a shield that successfully blocked Lamar’s attacks.
Their auras clashed with each other incessantly as images of the whip repeatedly struck the shield with great force. The shield shattered in an instant, and Lamar succeeded in lashing Jared. Even though Jared did not activate Golem Body, Lamar still only managed to leave a mark on his chest.
In response to the successful attack, Lamar glowed with pride. Eyeing Jared mockingly, he snarled, “You’re nothing but a tiny ant before me. Do you actually think you’re anywhere near my level? You and whose army?”
Jared sneered. Despite being hit by Lamar’s whip, he did not show the slightest bit of fear. “Since you’ve left me such a meaningful gift, I must give you something in return. Let me give you a taste of my powers.”
With that, Jared thrust the Dragonslayer Sword in his hand. Countless beams of light were emitted from the blade, causing the whole ground to shake. Those beams of blinding light proceeded to envelop Lamar completely. It was evident that the force of Jared’s sword was much more powerful than Lamar’s whip.
“This…” Lamar mumbled in shock. His brows were knitted together in a deep frown. Staring at those beams of light, he used his whip to defend himself against them.
However, the images of Lamar’s whip dissipated the moment they came into contact with the beams of light from Jared’s sword. All Lamar could do was continue to swing his whip desperately. He dared not relax in the slightest.
In the meantime, Jared merely watched Lamar with a sneer on his face before throwing the Dragonslayer Sword into the air. Without Jared’s control, the Dragonslayer Sword emitted ray after ray of light that charged in Lamar’s direction.
The sword spirit within the Dragonslayer Sword had already become self-aware. It was not completely mature yet, but it already knew how to attack on its own. At that sight, Lamar’s frown grew deeper.
After letting go of the Dragonslayer Sword, Jared slowly rose into the air and took out Divine Bow. With the eruption of Ultimate Force in his body, he pulled the bowstring.
Once the bow was fully drawn, all the surrounding spiritual energy gathered rapidly toward the bow, converging into a shining golden arrow in an instant.
“What is that?” Lamar’s expression turned grim when he sensed the terrifying aura of Divine Bow. All he could do was swing his whip frantically in an attempt to keep himself protected.
Swoosh! With a shout, Jared let go of the bowstring and shot the golden arrow. The arrow flew toward Lamar like a comet. The wind whistled loudly throughout the arrow’s trajectory while the space around it warped and twisted. In the blink of an eye, the arrow was right in front of Lamar. He could only swing his whip incessantly to block the golden arrow.
Boom! The arrow and Lamar’s whip collided with each other loudly. The whip was no match for the arrow, however, as the latter destroyed Lamar’s defense in a matter of seconds.
“What the heck?” Lamar paled with fright. He had not expected Jared’s arrow to be so strong.
