Chapter 540: Chapter 187_3
The blade hadn’t even made contact with the opponent’s body before it was abruptly halted mid-air without advancing any further.
Leonard Churchill retrieved the flying knife in a hurry. It was just this one touch that made him realise that this method could counter his flying knife. But what was of greater interest to him was a newfound curiosity: “Wow, this guy became very strong after advancing to the third tier…”
After all, they both practiced the same Breathing Method and were both Air Skill Masters.
This technique, with a single glance, reveals mastery and cleverness.
A Third Order Card Master like him wanting to condense his Curse Seal will need both opportunity and realization.
A Curse Seal is like knitting a sweater, different professions mean different methodologies, almost everyone knits different patterns.
The effects are also different.
The designs are various geometric patterns, various lines… usually a single element forming a closed loop.
But a look at Abel’s Curse Seal shows something very special.
It’s like chainmail, very complex in structure, and interlocked.
It seems that various elements are ingeniously connected together.
Just looking at the complexity of the patterns, it is far superior to any Curse Seal that Leonard Churchill has ever seen.
“Strange, how did this guy comprehend it?”
Leonard is currently in a state of Demonic Solution, his extremely high enlightenment and cognition enhanced by a Clown mask, allows him to understand a lot more than his peers at the same tier could understand.
He could tell at a glance that the complexity of the law level of this Curse Seal was absolutely not something a card master of Abel’s tier could comprehend.
It’s more like some higher existence has “woven” the Curse Seal and let Abel use it.
“Interesting…”
Leonard Churchill glanced at the big sword that Abel was carrying behind him, as if he understood something.
But before he had time to observe more, the noise of a cannon-like punch sounded.
The guy suddenly punched him.
Leonard Churchill saw a punch mark distorting the air on Abel’s fist several meters away with his own eyes.
“Tiger Cannon Fist!”
Abel’s famous skill, which can severely injure Heavy Armor Professionals by using vibrating waves, even from a distance.
The guy himself is an undefeated boxing king in the underground Black Market of Sinless City, focusing on close combat, and all his Martial Skills are honed through fights.
Among peers, it’s difficult to find someone with more experience in close combat.
This punch was deviously cunning, it was almost the same moment as he saw it, the punch hit Leonard Churchill.
With a “thud”, even though the Tyrant Body reduced most of the force, he still couldn’t help but cough up some blood.
This is the means of a high tier Air Skill Master.
Even from a distance, they have the power to hurt their enemies!
Leonard Churchill just managed to steady himself after retreating a few steps, but Abel had already charged over like a shadow.
The various exquisite fighting techniques made his fists seem like two cannons and his legs like two iron whips, being hit wherever he made contact.
Leonard Churchill’s close combat skills are actually not bad, and his physical attributes completely outclass Abel’s.
But just in these few exchanges, he was actually beaten back repeatedly?
Only after a real close combat did Leonard Churchill realize that his fighting technique and Abel’s are not on the same level at all.
Moreover, Abel’s understanding of the “air” in an Air Skill Master has reached an unimaginable level.
Overcome force with finesse, neutralize force with air.
It’s a very strange feeling. Leonard Churchill felt as if his fist was hitting into cotton. The strength would be neutralized in an extremely short time.
Prior to making contact with the opponent’s body, it felt as though the fist slid away, the punch had actually deviated!
How come Leonard Churchill, who clearly has overwhelming physical attributes, can’t exert them?
Moreover, both the flying knife and close combat techniques are severely restricted by Abel’s Curse Power Gang maneuver.
If it wasn’t for his highly rated Agility attribute which helped him narrowly avoid Abel’s attacks many times, Leonard Churchill thought that he might even lose in a short period of time.
The fight between the two of them quickly escalated.
Due to interference from Abel, Leonard Churchill couldn’t free himself to do anything else.
…..
Seeing that Abel had cornered Leonard Churchill and even appeared to be dominating, Young Master Kak’s dark face finally relaxed a bit.
The soldiers also breathed a sigh of relief, at least they no longer faced the heart-thumping threat of death that they had just experienced.
Not far away Catherine Carter watched with worry: If he couldn’t beat him, why was he still fighting?
But she was too busy to help, dealing with her own enemies that were surrounding her.
In the midst of the fierce battle, Leonard Churchill was growing more and more frustrated, but his mind was racing.
He could escape, Abel wouldn’t be able to catch up with him.
But it’s meaningless.
With him being held back by Abel, whether it’s the flying knife or his own close combat killing methods, both are greatly limited.
Killing a few more minions has no meaning to him.
And most importantly, looking at Abel’s peculiar air control technique, Leonard Churchill always felt a familiar feeling in his heart, “Where did this guy learn such a skilled move from?”
Sinless City is a place of exile. While it hides countless masters, there are definitely fewer top-level inheritances here than elsewhere.
Not only does Abel know the Demon God Secret Skill ‘Gluttony’, but he also knows this extraordinarily skillful air controlling technique?
With just these two abilities, his combat power has already been singled out among the Third Tier masters carefully cultivated by the nobility.
Leonard Churchill had previously suspected of Abel’s lineage, Lord Nine Brown seemed to know Abel’s background but didn’t say anything.
Now is not the time to think about this.
The more Leonard Churchill fought, the more he felt he had seen a similar description somewhere else.
But just as he was reminiscing, a flash of inspiration struck and something came to mind: “Shepherd Thirty-two Way Wandering Body Palm!”
