On The Path Of Cultivation To Become God

The knight's presence was commanding; his armor, adorned with flames, exuded an aura of strength and power.

|Flame Knight|

Half true Dao Of Fire

***************

The knight didn't move from his place, as if waiting for Chen Tian to attack first, but Chen Tian hesitated. His eyes locked with the knight's intense gaze, feeling the weight of the power emanating from him.

It was as if a single wrong move could result in disastrous consequences.

"Since you don't want to attack first, then I shall take the initiative," Chen Tian said with a deep, commanding voice that resonated through the air. His words carried an air of confidence.

|Boom|

With a burst of energy, Chen Tian moved forward, his body surrounded by crackling lightning. The electrifying glow illuminated his every movement as he charged towards the knight.

The lightning sword in Chen Tian's hand cracked with power; its blade was made of pure lightning.

As he closed the distance between himself and the knight, the sword's intensity grew, casting eerie shadows across the battleground.

The clash of his footsteps against the ground reverberated with each step.

The knight remained unfazed, his armor gleaming in flame.

With a swift swing of his lightning sword, he aimed for the knight's exposed flank, hoping to penetrate his defenses.

The power of the strike was overwhelming, causing a surge of electricity to ripple through the air.

The knight, however, was nimble and skilled, effortlessly sidestepping the attack.

With a swift movement, the knight unsheathed his flaming sword, causing the surrounding air to sizzle and crackle. Chen Tian could feel the heat radiating from the blade, intensifying the tension in the air.

"Not good!" Chen Tian thought to himself, realizing the knight's superior weaponry and agility. He quickly adjusted his stance and prepared for another attack.

The knight swung his flaming sword in a wide arc, which Chen Tian deftly sidestepped, his years of practice enabling him to anticipate the move.

He felt the rush of heat as the blade missed him by inches.

Using the momentum of his dodge, Chen Tian lunged forward, his own sword aimed at a chink in the knight's armor.

|Ziii|

|Tshhh|

The clash of lightning and fire created a dazzling spectacle, illuminating the intense battle between Chen Tian and the knight. The crackling sound of electricity intermingled with the sizzling of flames as their weapons collided, sparks flying in all directions.

The sheer power and energy in the air heightened their determination to emerge victorious.

The knight managed to block the attack with his sword, but Chen Tian continued to press on.

He unleashed a flurry of quick and precise strikes, keeping the Knight on the defensive.

Each clash of their swords sent a wave through the air, intensifying the tension of the battle.

Chen Tian's determination grew as he refused to back down, prolonging the fight and refusing to give his opponent any respite.

The sweat on his brow was a testament to his unwavering resolve; his muscles were aching from the physical exertion of each parry and strike. The sound of Lightning and fire meeting sounded in the place.

His opponent, equally skilled and determined, matched his every move with precision.

As minutes turned into hours, neither Chen Tian nor his opponent showed signs of yielding.

But the only problem was that Chen Tian was getting tired; his breaths came in ragged gasps, his chest heaving with effort.

Since his opponent isn't a living thing but the dao of fire, Chen Tian knew that he couldn't rely on exhaustion to defeat it.

And because of exhaustion, Chen Tian was getting injured for the first time, but these injuries are all scratches and bruises from the intense battle.

"Damn it!" Chen Tian cursed as he felt a sharp pain shoot through his side.

Despite the injury, he refused to let it deter him, channeling his pain into fuel for his next attack.

With a renewed burst of energy, he launched himself at the knight, pushing him back and gaining the upper hand.

|SCRIIII|

A sword clashed against another, the sound echoing through the battlefield as Chen Tian fought fiercely against the knight.

With each swing of his sword, he could feel the weight of his injuries, but he pushed through the pain, determined to defeat his opponent.

"I can't remain in this state," Chen Tian quickly realized, his thoughts already concentrated on finding a solution.

"Grrr…."

Gritting his teeth, he pulled the sword off, withstanding the pain.

He's currently using only 20% of the Law of Lightning, but thanks to Chen Tian's extensive experience with this element, he possessed precise mastery over its manipulation for his benefit.

The 20% of power he used was superior to that of an average lightning cultivator at the same level. However, it proved lacking to overcome the fake dao of fire.

As the knight lunged forward with a powerful strike, Chen Tian swiftly evaded the attack and unleashed a bolt of lightning from his fingertips.

The electric current surged through the knight's armor, but since it wasn't a living thing, it didn't do much to paralyze him.

However, that wasn't Chen Tian's initial intention, as he aimed to create distance from the knight.

Using his lightning-fast speed, Chen Tian swiftly executed a quick retreat.

He knew that defeating this fake dao of fire was beyond his current capabilities.

"I haven't used this technique in quite a while. Consider yourself privileged to witness this attack from me," Chen Tian murmured softly.

Lightning Law: 23%

Lightning Law: 35%

Lightning Law: 40%

Chen Tian summoned all his strength and channeled it into his lightning law, reaching a staggering 40% lightning mastery.

Like a god of thunder, Chen Tian's body was surrounded by crackling electricity, his eyes glowing with power.

"Watch this, I dedicated years to perfecting my swordsmanship until I mastered this technique!" Chen Tian exclaimed, his voice infused with unwavering resolve.

"Hisss...."

Releasing a deep breath, he took his position again, with his lightning sword in his hand.

'Annihilation Sword. Last Breath.'
