Wizard World:Struggles of dimensions

84 Cod Legend

As soon as Igor attacked tang qi Layton closely followed, he stomped hard on the ground and shot at appalling speeds moving through the air with his fist clenched to deliver a punch at the qi practitioner.

Tang qi noticed the pincer attack he focused on Igor who was closer and ignored Layton, Layton who was sending a punch towards the left rib of tang qi suddenly stopped and in violation of logical rules of gravity twisted in midair avoiding the claw of the dragon that had flown in his previous path.

The dragon after missing its attack did not relent but kept on pursing Layton, with a slight shift of his body howling winds from the thundercloud above swept towards Layton. Floating in the air and with a psionic filled punch that increased his power to immense degrees, Layton shattered the incoming winds, immediately his fist tore through the wind, thick bolts of lightning from the dark clouds above descended intending to impale him, with a stomp midair Layton changed direction and volleyed back to the ground, successfully descending he tumbled on the earth as he avoided more bolts that were sent his way.

All these attacks had happened in split seconds if not for Layton’s perverted perception that could allow him to sense some seconds into the future he would have been hit by those attacks and attacks from a legendary life were not easy to bear.

Igor on the other hand continued his previous plan of attack, Tang qi slowly stretched forth his palm to hold Igor’s punch, the collisions between the two set off countless fist winds, although Igor was a superpower and not as adept as melees as Layton or practitioners of the Wu federation his punches and attacks still carried a lot of power, by compressing his muscles through his gravity powers whenever he punched the compressed power hidden in his muscles would be released during the time his fist or kicks hit something forming a short but powerful burst of power, not only that each of his attacks was imposed with gravity increasing its mass and with the same technique he used to slingshot himself through space he also used concurrently on his attacks drastically increasing his attack speed and making his attacks accompanied with some faint spatial effects, it was precisely these effects that reduced the effect of Tang qi newly born domain and made Igor on par with him.

Although Tang qi had used a tricky way to advance and most individuals who were legendary powerhouses would be embarrassed to say Tang qi was a legend like them but he still had the characteristics of a real legend and that was domain, a semi-permanent field which exerted miraculous effects based on the practitioners path and also served as a suppressor for non-legendary powerhouses, although not all legendary powerhouses used their domains during combat and some legendary figures such as pure swordsmen, practitioner who solely focused on their bodies personally fused their domain with their bodies or weapons making it unable to spread out normally it was fact that all legendary life owned a domain, once a non-legendary life enters into a legends domain there was practically no way to come out alive against a serious legend, the suppressive effects of the domain on the non legends body soul and energy were instinctive and superimposed as time got longer, the immense energy the domain was able to absorb from outside to maintain its existence semi-permanent and able to impose ones will within its range was fatal, only champion level figures have been recorded to put up a decent fight against legends without using external forces all other tales of mortals defeating legends were mostly done by an intervening powerful external force.

Tang qi who aimed at experiencing what a legendary level breakthrough felt like used a crazy way to advance by severing his soul into two and making one part of his separated soul leave his body and imbue in the created dragon he succeeded in creating a level 2 creature, the successful creation which would then feedback on his main body as a result of the connection between souls would then also causing him to experience life sublimation becoming a legend, the flaw was that strictly speaking the domain he showed right now was too weak almost unable to work properly and the domain was in fact not his, it belonged to the dragon, he just completed a life sublimation and was unable to have a domain because of the huge flaw in his soul.

In fact, others had used more crazy impaired and desperate methods to forcefully advance but it was well known that those who did this had no hope for advancement in their life’s and they could be slaughtered by geniuses who were not of the legendary level yet, although to most non-legendary life there was no difference between those who used flawed ways to forcefully advance and those who were proper legends, but to the more knowledgeable few those like Tang qi using such methods were dubbed cod legends, it was only because of the peculiarity of the holy grail war that would clear all negative experiences during the war such as his premature advancement that he dared to try this breakthrough.

Igor retracted his fist from Tang qi’s palm using his powers moved from his position in the air and then fisted out again, Tang qi still stretched out his palm again slowly, his faint blue like domain allowed him to perceive clearly all movement around him and allowed his palm to easily close the distance, the force of the attack was channelled through the palm and spread to all parts of the water like domain in form of ripples like a stone sinking quietly into the water leaving only ripples on the surface.

.....

Seeing this scene Igor’s brown pupils flashed quietly, during the first attack he had not been able to understand how the qi practitioner had easily resolved his attack but now he finally understood ‘he is simulating capillary waves to resolve my attacks, and judging from the fact that he has to use his palm as a platform there is definitely something wrong with his domain, the only question is if its permanent or it will be fixed as time goes on’ Igor thought quietly as he sped up the pace sending more punches and kicks attacking the qi practitioner frantically causing more ripples to be generated and the domain to soon start showing signs of instability as its normal bubble-shaped form rapidly deformed.
