Philip stood there like a metal statue which is burning hot.

As the dagger user made his way with lightning crackling around him. He swung his dagger as he wanted to stab Philip right in his heart from behind.

Even before the dagger made contact, the electric arc was shot out on to Philip, this to achieve the paralysis effect and since Philip is a metal element user, he will have a greater conduction rate.

But Philip didn't show any reaction, even though, he did feel a small electric sensation but for some reason, it didn't cause him any damage.

Both the attacker and the Philip doesn't know is, that the reason is simple. Philip who currently is a red- hot metal, has high resistance for electricity, although the fusion is partial at this level of attack it is enough for him to resist it.

Neither the attacker nor Philip noticed this though. The dagger was thrust directly towards the heart, but before that could make contact. A metallic spike abruptly came out of Philip's back almost piercing the eye of the attacker.

He barely dodged it and the spike left a deep mark on the face of the attacker.

He took a step back and frowned at the development. He didn't think, that Philip who is only a Peak Great realm would make a move like this.

He is capable of resisting a Grand realm cultivator who achieved Level-3. But the attacker wasn't discouraged. He is superior in cultivation and he can fight a battle of endurance. From what they saw in the seer tower, the trump cards of these people might really be able to harm them.

So, he decided on the battle of endurance. He sneered and started making his move.

Meanwhile, the remaining two attackers are also facing the same type of situations.

The bulky man with the Hammer is mainly focusing on defending as he accumulated power for a while and only launched a single attack which will cause a lot of damage.

But Jack's newly learned skills are perfect counter. Now his moves are gentle and flexible like flowing water. He is very good at dodging and attacking from very different and unpredictable angles.

The hammer guy is having a hard time dealing with him and when he is focusing on defense while accumulating power for the attack, he was being flanked by Jack who is wearing his defense bit by bit.

But he is still confident that he can deal with Jack as long as the fight dragged out long enough.

As for the archer guy and Watt.

Their battle is the most amusing one. The archer felt that he has an advantage with the distance and power and speed at which he can attack, but he couldn't be more wrong. Because Watt started using his card tricks and he has been throwing them in many different angles and sometimes he is even throwing them without directly aiming at him.

But the cards are taking a weird curve in the air as if the wind itself is carrying them and it is reaching him no matter what.

And this way, the archer wasn't even able to make attacks of proper damage, and what annoyed him the most is that Watt seemed to have possessed endless cards. He just kept on throwing them one after another.

They are faster than his wind blades and every time the archer did manage to make an attack by shooting an arrow it would be intercepted by a card and if one card is not sufficient multiple will come and all in all, not a single arrow reached Watt.

And he also can only rely on the battle of endurance. They don't dare use their trump cards easily, because, there is no way to be sure that the opponent's trump cards don't harm them when they clashed and if by any chance, they took severe damage, they would be done for.

But what they didn't know is at this moment of deadlock, Watt, Jack, and Philip all three of them had a cunning gleam in their eyes.

They carefully took out a small space jade and placed in their mouths without letting their opponents notice.

They knew that their enemies will choose the battle of endurance as this was supposed to be their disadvantage and even pills, potions, and food with very high spiritual energy cannot solve this issue as they need time to digest. But they have a solution to this.

The battle went on.

The Hammer guy was the first to see that there is something wrong because by now there are some injuries on his sides and limbs which are showing significant hindrance in his battling.

He is trained as a tank for this small three-man team, but even he was having a hard time taking the hits now. The battle has been going on for so long that he was already brought to this stage, but Jack is not showing any form of exhaustion at most he was sweating and panting. His spiritual energy did seem weak, but that is nowhere near complete exhaustion.

It only seemed half empty.

The problem is that even their spiritual energies also half empty, which should be impossible due to the level difference. He suddenly stopped in his tracks and Jack who was halted said with a sarcastic smile.

"So much for the thunderbolt sect. We are of weaker cultivation and we have yet to suffer a single critical strike." His words were sharp and sarcastic.

The hammer guy was immediately enraged. They were really proud of their ability and they even boasted that they would take them down. They were so confident because they had succeeded in many operations before.

The burly man was always a tank, who would stop the most powerful one of all. Meanwhile, the archer deals with the person who could possibly be a variable affecting the battle, and the third one who is an agile assassin will take care of the last remaining person.

And based on the vision they saw on the seer tower, Jack seemed most powerful with his sword skills and him being the one who was able to let the other guy use a trump card.

Philip's victory could be seen as a fluke as the main reason was due to the bad fall from a volcano and as for Watt's battle, he was treated as a person who could be a variable, because he displayed some high-level prediction and calculative abilities by taking down arrows and making the opponent backlash for their own attack.

They followed the pattern based on their speculations and they failed to know that three of their opponents might not have revealed all of their cards and their battle styles which they thought was their styles might not be true at all.

When they noticed that three of them are moving to one destination, they were overjoyed and immediately came here with full confidence in their abilities to defeat a team.

But now, the situation didn't seem too good.

The hammer guy became furious by the provocation and swung his battle hammer in full power. It cracked the land leaving a crater.

Jack leaped into the sky and directly attacked the person without delay.

Both of them started exchanging blows in an extremely straightforward way without caring for anything.

The team leader who was an assassin was alerted by the sudden change and immediately thought of something.

He left Philip entirely and ran towards Jack to deal with his two-on-one. But as soon as he turned around and made his move, Jack suddenly left the hammer guy in a flash and leaped into the air towards the assassin. The hammer guy is slow in his movements and he wasn't able to catch up at all.

And before the assassin could come out of the surprise, Philip came from behind with his two fists a bit enlarged and metallic spikes protruding out of it.

The plan of the assassin reversed instantly.

The archer and the hammer guy were about to make a move to save their leader, but Watt suddenly threw a bunch of cards at the same time from both hands.

The cards are different from before. They have all strings attached and Watt closed his eyes as he concentrated to the extreme.

Every card was focused on the vitals of both archer and the hammer guy.

Every individual attack is direct and can be avoided, but it is impossible to escape unscathed as there are numerous attacks at the same time.

The Archer was completely stunned at the range of attacks Watt covered. He controlled the wind an extremely delicate manner that there is no noticeable flaw. Every card will reach its target.

At this moment, Jack blocked the daggers and slashed the chest of the attacker while Philip landed the punches straight into the spine of the guy one by one. He is like a Gatling gun throwing a punch after punch and in a second the spine was cracked and the whole back became riddled with holes.

The hammer guy and the archer tried to evade Watt's attacks but were still unable to do so. They have some tendons cut and several cuts appeared on their face.

Philip and Jack used up some of their energy, but their energies are recovering slowly. They turned their attention to the hammer guy who was still recovering from Watt's attack.

Watt recalled all the cards and threw them again at the archer. But this time, the archer did something unexpected.

He took out a scroll and activated it. With that the scroll and the archer turned into a flash of lightning and reappeared near the hammer guy and shot two arrows at Jack and Philip, making them step back.

This time, the archer didn't conserve any energy.

Watt ran towards them and joined Philip and Jack. Now the battle became three vs three to three vs two.

The leader of the attackers is as good as dead.

Archer looked frustrated, he was is constantly looking at the leader who is feebly breathing and then their conditions, the battle which was in a deadlock has suddenly turned and their teammate is the one who caused the scale to fluctuate.

He was thinking between escaping and continuing, but when he remembered the identity of their leader, he only has one way. They have to either save the leader and take him back or die along with him.

There would be no life, even if went back to the sect if they don't bring back to the sect.

He looked at the hammer guy and made a gesture.

At this, the hammer guy placed his two hands on the back of the archer and started transferring all his spiritual energy. The archer nocked an arrow on the bow and stretched it to its limit. All the spiritual energy was being transferred to the arrow and his legs.

The whole energy didn't even take a second to transfer and before the trio could react, he jumped straight into the air as azure blue lightning surrounding him.

With a single leap left a crater on the ground and also reached more than fifty feet high.

He aimed the bow at the trio and released it.

The trio reacted as soon as he jumped, but they weren't able to completely escape the blast radius as the arrow hit the ground.

They didn't expect this last-ditch attack and that too a full-fledged one.

They were blown away by the explosion like ragdolls to all three sides.
