As everyone waited to see him fall, the expected outcome never arrived.
The aura blade that had cut him in half was dissipated the moment it began to cut him.
It wasn't that he was slashed so cleanly, but the blade's energy was dismantled at the very core by the Purity!
And so, Ozul stood with a burning sensation at his waist. Wisps of the black matter churned around the wound to heal it quickly, but an attack from a Heavenly Virtue wasn't going to go away so easily.
Raven and the Blaze settled in their positions again, noticing that Ozul was still alive.
Jidu's expression turned grim.
At the same time, something burned in him. A need to put that kid in his place, to show him who was the superior entity.
And so, the fight resumed with a new fervor.
This time, Ozul defended each attack cautiously, tens of layers of the Purity ensured each blow was cushioned enough to almost dissipate before reaching him if he wasn't dodging it.
