BXBX NOVEL Chapter 365 Shin Vs The Two Greats (2)
The Dark summoning circle descended on the injured wyvern as a blue light completely engulfed its body. Soon the wyvern disappeared from the place without leaving a trace.
The same happened with the frost panther and the sky eagle.
Apparently, he wanted to replenish his mana and let his summons rest and leave the battlefield without any further injury, so he immediately sent them back.

Walton dashed toward Shin in order to punch him. However, Shin used Speed Run to escape the attack.
But just as he had vanished, he found Walton following him closely, in fact, appearing right beside him. He had almost matched Shin\'s speed and punched him in his stomach causing Shin\'s body to clash with the ground.
Shin was surprised to see someone with such a massive body, chase him at such a high speed.
Walton then continuously punched Shin three times causing him to cough some blood. But then Shin quickly used his skill to heal as the fourth punch was about to land.
Just as the fourth punch hit Shin, he used Dark Manipulation, creating a Dark Sphere and launching it at Walton who was too close to dodge!
Walton had left behind his gigantic sword, so he couldn\'t even use the skill Damage Reverse to send all the damage done to him to Shin.
So, he used Sword Slash yet again, but this time, without any sword.
Walton\'s fingers once again linked with each other. He used it as a sword and swung it vertically downward. He slashed the sphere in two, and both sides went and blasted a little far away after passing by him.
The sword slash that he unleashed had another purpose too – to slash Shin\'s neck!
Shin was barely able to dodge the slash by a millimetre, but right after that movement, a bloody scratch appeared on his paws.
Walton once again swung his hand toward Shin without using any skill, to which Shin was barely able to dodge them. He would dodge it by a millimetre but each time he did, a bloody scar would appear on his body.
Walton once again linked his fingers and swung his palm toward Shin\'s forehead.
This time Shin didn\'t try to dodge, instead, he launched a wind blade by using an Aero slash.
The Aero slash would slice off Walton\'s fingers if he tried to slash it with his fingers, however, much to Shin\'s surprise, Walton did try to slice off the Aero Slash and he was successful too, without having to lose his fingers!
Walton\'s fingers started to shine in pure white light. As soon as the Aero slash came in contact, the Aero Slash vanished, as if it got sliced into pieces.
This was the master swordsman\'s mastery over Sword Aura!
Regardless, Shin decided to launch hundreds of Aero Slashes.
It was as if Walton realized what Shin\'s plan was and hence, he created some distance between them.
Seconds later, thousands of wind blades travelled towards him, but Walton wasn\'t scared or nervous at all.
Instead, he just picked up his gigantic sword and posed towards the slashes. He stood in a defensive style, with his sword behaving like a shield.
All the attacks him!
*BOOM*
Clouds of dust covered everyone\'s vision.
However, when clouds of dust settled down, Walton was unscathed.
The one who suffered the damage was none other than Shin!
\'What the!?\', Shin was confused.
His HP was decreased by a significant amount.
In fact, only 10% of his HP was left. If not for his skill Heal, his entire HP might have run out!
Just what happened!?
Well, Walton was able to reflect the damages from the attack due to his skill, [Damage Return] an A-rank skill at level 9.
It was a super strong skill that would let Walton escape unscathed and cause the opponent to suffer heavy damage – of course, the skill had some limitations as well.
It couldn\'t block the skills that were of higher rank than it – for example, an S-rank skill couldn\'t be blocked completely by the A-rank Damage Return. Of course, it could still reflect the damage partially, but it couldn\'t do it completely.
Regardless, after witnessing this, Shin was both surprised and confused.
\'Was that a skill…?\'
He wondered. He didn\'t hesitate to ask the system to display all the skills that the Master Swordsman had.
1] Sword Creation Lv.9 - Rank A
2] Sword Aura Lv.9 - Rank A
3] Infinite Blade Lv.5 - Rank S
4] Demolition Sword Lv.3 - Rank B
5] Eye Of Rakhsa Lv.4 - Rank B
6] Damage Return Lv.9 - Rank A
7] Sword Domain Lv.10 - Rank A
8] Infinite Sword Control Lv. 9 - Rank A
9] Sword Walk Lv.4 - Rank C
10] Sword Slash Lv.2 - Rank D
He didn\'t check the description of the skills as the names sounded self-explanatory. But there were some skills that he really wanted to check – the skills that were at S rank.
Fie, he failed to check the details as Walton seemed to prepare himself to launch an attack.
Shin decided that he would attack before Walton did and payback for all the damage that he caused.
*Ding*
[You have used the skill Dimension Eater.]
Three giant mouths of a wolf appeared. One from the top, one from the left, and one from the right side.
"Interesting," Walton said as he grabbed the hilt of his great sword and unsheathed it.
He then struck the three giant mouths as they approached him, breaking them. Soon those mouths melted in darkness, fading instantly as they took great damage.
Shin then dashed towards Walton and used Blood Crunch. But this time, Walton decided that he would hit Shin just as he approached. So he didn\'t dodge and just waited to swing his sword.
But what a pity, Shin\'s attack hit him, biting his left arm, and almost ripping a large amount of flesh from it.
Walton underestimated Shin\'s speed.
Just because he was able to catch up to Shin previously and hit him, he thought that Shin couldn\'t go any faster.
But right now, Shin, who was cautious, used both Wind Run and Speed Run and boosted his speed to the extreme, so that his skill could succeed in hitting the mark!
