The Author's POV

Chapter 406

Bang—!

A large palm appeared in my vision, magnifying in front of me at an incredible speed.

A powerful wind pounced on me, causing my heart to tremble a little. The fact that Han Yufei was fifth-ranked in the Lock was definitely proof of his strength.

Staring at the incoming palm, I immediately decided to use one of my skills.

'Eyes of Chronos.'

Upon activation, the world around me started to slow down significantly. In fact, it came to a complete standstill. But, even though time had slowed, it had only slowed down from my eyes. My body was also frozen. Fortunately, my brain could keep up with everything that was happening around me.

'I can't avoid it.'

Carefully staring at Han Yufei's incoming attack, I realized that it couldn't be avoided.

The attack was simply too fast and too close to me at this point in time for me to avoid it.

Although faint, I could also see a small suctioning force coming from Han Yufei's palm. Even if I somehow managed to dodge the attack, the result would still be the same.

As such, after deliberating on the many different scenarios presented before me, I opted for the simplest solution.

'The one.'

Activating for 'the one' for a split second, I simultaneously deactivated 'Eyes of Chronos.'

Han Yufei's hand faltered. It was only for a split second but it was enough to buy me enough time to cross my arms together in a defensive posture.

Boom—!

Han Yufei's palm heavily landed on my arms, a tremendous power came pouring down on me.

"Khhh..."

Feeling the tremendous impact of his attack, my body shook and I slid all the way back to the edge of the arena, only stopping at the very edge of the arena.

As my feets stopped at the edge of the arena, lifting my head, I shook my arms which were completely numb from the pain at this point.

'Man that hurts.'

I may somewhat be used to intense pain by this point, but the power behind the attack was no joke.

It felt as though the bones in my arms had completely shattered. That was just how powerful the attack was.

It also had to be noted that Han Yufei had only attacked me with a simple palm attack. It was not a fancy skill or technique. Just a regular palm strike.

Yet, the power hidden within that simple strike was incredible.

"Huuuu…"

Lowering my hands, I took a deep breath.

Slowly, the mana in the atmosphere began to converge into me.

Bang—!

Without giving me enough time to recuperate, taking a step forward, bending his body forward like a predator that was about to hunt its prey, Han Yufei's body shot in my direction.

This time he was even faster than before as an after-image of his lingered in the air for a brief moment of time.

Staring at the incoming Han Yufei, pressing my foot onto the ground, the mana around me swirled wildly, creating a faint green coating around my body. Then, releasing the tension in my foot, my body shot in Han Yufei's direction.

A cold light flashed across Han Yufei's eyes as he stared at my approaching figure. Raising both hands in the air, tangible mana began to swirl and emerge from his hands, creating sharp energy blades.
