Chapter 1045 Let Us Find Out
“That’s enough talking. Let’s kill him first.” Skylar did not want to take any chances, so he tightened his
grip on his weapon and charged toward Jared once again.
Unlike what he did last time, Jared moved his body and evaded Skylar’s blade.
However, right after Jared dodged the swordsman’s attack, Karl assaulted him with terrifying martial
energy.
Having timed Jared’s evasion, Karl intended to unleash his fury on his enemy before the man could find
his footing.
As expected, Karl landed another hit and sent Jared flying yards away once again.
Jared’s face immediately turned because he knew he was in a tough spot.
Instead of trying to adjust his breathing again, Jared skillfully created a copy of himself with a flick of
the wrist.

Not only did the duplicates look exactly like Jared, but they also had the same aura as his. Hence, it
was impossible for Skylar or Karl to tell which was the real Jared.
Karl was stupefied as he stared at the five Jareds, while Skylar seemed unfazed. “So you’ve mastered
Ichiro’s Nine Shadow Clones, huh? This trick may work on others, but not me.”
“Is that so? Let’s find out!”
Jared then charged toward Skylar with the first technique of Nine Shadows and unleashed five sword
energies so powerful that they changed the color of the sky.
Skylar simply smirked as he readied the magic sword in his hand, for he was aware that he only had to
deal with one of the sword energies because the others were just illusions.
All he had to was find the most powerful one and block it.
Unfortunately, Skylar was stunned when the sword energies rocketed toward him.
Grimacing, he realized that the energies were all filled with enough murderous intent to grind him to
pieces.
Skylar, left with no choice, quickly placed his sword in front of him to summon a shield of light for
protection.
Clang!
The sound of the collision was so loud that it almost shook the entire Dragon Island.
Karl was shocked when he witnessed how Skylar was sent flying before landing violently on the
ground.
“Mr. Norton!” called out Karl before hurrying over to help Skylar up.
After wiping the blood off the corner of his mouth, Skylar narrowed his eyes sternly. “Damn it! I can’t
believe how much martial energy he has. He’s definitely much stronger than Ichiro, so we’ll have to do
this together.”
Skylar’s magic sword started to shine brightly as a ball of light appeared at the tip. Then, the man was
enveloped by an intimidating aura.

Karl, too, got ready by utilizing the power of his geomantic compass to make his fists power up like
Skylar’s blade.
Whoosh!
The two threw several energy balls toward Jared, who clenched his teeth as he swung his weapon and
sent out another five blows of sword energy to defend himself.
The instant the energies collided, a vicious explosion sounded, causing clouds of dust to cover the sky
and block the sun as though a bomb had hit the place.
“Pfft!” Jared vomited a mouthful of blood before collapsing to the ground. He got so weak that even his
illusions faded away.
Even though Jared’s shadow clones were actual threats, they had to depend on his spiritual energy
because they came from his elixir field.
Since he had been injured, it was no longer possible for him to sustain the clones.
It was apparent that Jared, who had a sunken chest, got his ribs broken. At that point, the spiritual
energy in his elixir field was close to none.
