All Novel Full Chapter 59 - Spar With Klent
"Well I guess it'll be alright, I need to practice my movement skills anyway"
And with Klent's words of approval, they headed towards an open field to finally spar.
"You ready?" asked Dante
"Of course" replied klent
"Great, let's start then!"
As Dante spoke Klent brought out his rusty old sword as the aura around him changed. It was as if he was a previously sheathed sword, now brought out into battle!
Seeing Klent's aura change, Dante also got ready for battle.
Dante prepared to use his new movement technique, Emperor's Descent, by visualising the gigantic phantom he saw sitting on a golden throne. Although his aura was nowhere near the level of the terrifying phantom he saw the other day, he still managed to create a slither of an Emperor's aura, causing his temperament to change becoming nobler.
Even Klent was greatly shocked at this new aura being formed around Dante, he could clearly sense that it was very different from his usual dragon fear aura.
'Damn!' thought Klent
'This guy just keeps getting stronger! Am I really going to be left behind a second time?'
Klent thought about his life during the past three years and how his cultivation barely progressed. He used to be one of the strongest yet now the people who he used to look down on not only got to his level, but even surpassed him while he only remained stagnant.
'No! I refuse to be left behind ever again!' thought Klent tightening his grip on his sword.
"Phantom Ghost steps!" Cried Klent
As he spoke Klents body flickered as it flashed along, appearing beside Dante in an instant.
Klent didn't want to underestimate Dante in any way, so he sent out a murderous strike directly at Dante's neck!
Despite seeing Klent's deadly attack, Dante wasn't panicked.
"Emperor's Descent!"
Dante's body seemed to shake as a powerful burst of energy was sent directly towards his leg.
Dante took a step forward causing a fist of wind left in his place.
Klent was surprised by Dante's burst of speed and turned his head in his direction.
All he saw was Dante standing there unharmed with a proud smile on his face
"You're going to have to do better than that if you want to catch me!" taunted Dante
But all he received
"Don't get too cocky, I was only testing you to see if I should go out and lucky for you, you passed!" responded Klent with a smirk of his own.
"Phantom ghost steps!"
"Emperor's Descent!"
Both Dante and Klent's bodies flickered as Klent chased after Dante causing gusts of wind to fly as they blazed across the training field.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Dante dodged Attack after attack sent from klent, but just as Dante thought that this was getting too easy, he heard klent shout
"Blade Storm!"
Instantly a bright flash of white light erupted behind Dante causing him to look behind him.
As he turned around he saw 5 beams of white sword energy shooting towards himself
Fully stimulating his new movement technique, Dante managed to swerve through three of the attacks directed at him. Unfortunately, despite all his efforts, Dante's mastery of his technique was still limited. This meant that he couldn't bring out its full potential causing him to be trapped between 2 rays of sword energy.
Dante refused to block these attacks as he knew that only by forcing himself to his limits could he rapidly advance his technique, something he had to do in preparation for this upcoming competition.
"Bang!"
Although Dante tried to break his limits, it wasn't so easy, and he was hit by the rays of sword energy sending him rolling across the floor.
Luckily the magic resistance granted to him by his Silver Dragon soul meant that Dante was still okay even after taking a beam of sword energy to the face.
"Blade storm! "
Just as Dante was recovering, he heard a shout that made him jump to his feet.
"Blade Storm!"
Dante looked up to see ten beams of sword energy shooting towards himself, coming at him from all directions!
The beams of energy kept getting closer and closer towards Dante.
But Dante seemed to be oblivious to the attack.
In fact, Dante was visualising the scene of the enormous phantom standing up before him and the awe he felt as he gazed upon its majestic figure.
That's when everything seemed to click inside the head of Dante, he seemed to have grasped something from the simple yet awe-inspiring movements of the gigantic phantom.
With his newfound comprehension, Dante took a steep forward causing the ground to shake
"Emperor's Descent!"
Dante's body seemed to flicker as he weaved through the beams of light appearing in a clearing away from the chaotic blast of sword energies
Klent was left stunned at Dante's spectacular manoeuvre, dodging all of his attacks, and went up to Dante and congratulated him
"Congratulations Dante, it seems like your goal was reached and you managed to advance in your movement technique!"
But to Klent's surprise, Dante didn't respond at all. Instead, he was still stood with a blank look on his face staring off into the distance.
Again Klent called out towards Dante
"Dante, Are you all right?"
But just like last time klent was ignored as Dante continued to stare at the sky with the same blank look on his face.
Eventually, after calling Dante a few more times klent went up and touched Dante to get his attention
"Huhhh!" Dante seemed to wake up from his trance jumping up in surprise!
"You awake now? I've been calling out to you and you've just been here, staring out into the distance
