Chapter 197 Black Lightning!
Chapter 197 Black Lightning!
Toward the summit of the silver-colored mountain peak was a flat field, and on it sat a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged. It seemed as if the man had been sitting like a statue for centuries as his body was covered in dust and snow, and even part of his body was covered in ice-clad and the gust of wind would occasionally whistle from time to time as it was at the highest ground.
Phwee! Phwee! Phwee!.....
Suddenly, the sound of whistling chimed, and a young man trotted up, whistling and keeping his hand folded backward, clad in a white shirt and black pants. It was none other than Bobby, who was now in his real human appearance.
He halted when he saw the man as he still kept whistling.
With a thought, Bobby activated his ocular skill, 'the Devil's eyes technique' as his eyes scintillated purple. And then he scanned the man using the X-Ray Vision.
Next, the dinging sound, which was pleasing to his ear, chimed in his head as a notification popped up in his head.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
[ Target Name: Unknown! ]
[ Species: Ogarian ]
[ Bone Aged: 696 Years Old! ]
[ Energy Level: 49! ]
Another notification popped up with a ding.
Ding!
[ A New Challenge Open! ]
[ Mission: Slay Him! ]
[ Reward: 2nd Evolution Of Satanification! ]
[ No Time Limit! No Penalty! ]
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Along with a cracking sound, multiple cracks appeared on the ice-clapped, encasing the man. They exploded, and the man stood up and said, turning around at Bobby, "Finally, someone can reach here after several centuries." The man said, stretching his body producing the popping sound of bones' joints.
He said with a grin showing his golden teeth, "Oh, a human genius, great! Before I kill you. You must know my name to tell your god Yama that I, Xolo the Fifth, sent you there."
Bobby saw that this man's eyes were also pitch-black, dark like Hardy.
"Xolo, stop bragging! You're just someone else's dog. I'll kill you and then your master too, eventually." Bobby said calmly.
"Hmph!" Xolo snorted and took a step forward and the next instant, he appeared before Bobby and punched him in his head.
Bobby also punched him as their fists contacted.
It forced both of them to step several steps back and just after they gained their footing, an explosion happened at the point of the space where their fists met.
Boom!
A small cloud of energy churned chaotically, blanketing a small space as a result of the explosion.
"Dude, what did you think about the last exchange?" Cynthia asked telepathically in his head.
"Physically, this fella is my perfect target to test my physical strength… Hahaha, I'm going to have a blast today. He's just the second man and this much stronger already… I'm wondering how much strength the next one would possess." Bobby responded, cheerfully telepathically to her.
By that instant, Xolo appeared just beside him and punched him in his chest.
This time Bobby dodged it and reciprocated at him with a punch aimed at his belly.
Xolo dodged it and the two started a bout, kicking and punching at each other one defending and the other would take an offensive stance they changed their tactic and movements were so fast that the series of explosions left behind was the only witness that they shifted from one spot to another at a breathtaking speed.
After over fifteen minutes of melee battle, they separated and glanced at each other intently as they pant, gasping for air.
"For a human to gain that level of physical strength. You're truly a martial genius. I can give you that… Alright, since you can battle toe to toe with me, you have gained my respect. So, I'll use my ultimate form and skill to kill you as my way of showing respect to you." Xolo said, praising him.
He then chanted incantations in a tongue that sounded like an old Hebrew as he made a series of hand seals. After he finished his incantation, he shouted, "Black Vajra*, come forth!"
After a moment, the environment suddenly changed as a black storm cloud blanketed the sun and it turned pitch-black dark, and a whirling storm roared, and a bolt of black-luster lightning struck down upon him and all of his clothes except for his boxer which was still made up of metal has remained and a loud rumbling sound of thunderclap followed.
After striking over ten times, it stopped, and the surroundings returned to normal, lighting the day as the black storm clouds dissipated quickly in the air.
Bobby saw that there were multiple luster black runes like lightning appearing on Xolo's skin like some tattoos and there was also a black lightning weapon on his raising right hand and from time to time multiple light bolts would come out with a sizzling and popping sound. The weapon was in the shape of a short spear, pointed at both ends.
"A black lightning user and that weapon. Hmm, interesting!" Bobby muttered under his breath.
"Human lad, this is my ultimate black lightning form. I've harnessed this power of the lightning using my understanding of lightning's nature and in this form, I can only last for the next twenty minutes…. But, it's more than enough to take you down." Xolo bragged his power as he was proud to be wilder of vajra-slash-lightning, which everyone rarely had an affinity with.
He then pointed his luster black lightning at Bobby, sending out a thick bolt of black lightning aiming for his head.
"Ninja Movement Technique, 2nd Law, One Step On the wind!"
Bobby whispered, turning into a phantom and disappearing whereas the black lightning bolt missed and a colossal explosion happened on the ground, digging a deep pit.
Just after Bobby reappeared, another black lightning bolt shot him at a lightning-fast speed. He disappeared once again, dodging the attack as the process kept going on, repeating for another three minutes.
As his attack was rendered useless considering Bobby's fast movement technique, Xolo became impatient.
