If it weren't because of the Origin Qi, it would be impossible for Yale executing that type of skill because with just Spiritual Sense he could at most control five or six flying swords. Of course, just throwing them was easier, but those ice swords had a tracking function which increased a lot the difficulty of executing the skill.
However, the Origin Qi could be combined with Spiritual Sense to make the control smoother, although the cost of being able to control such a high quantity of swords for a while was extremely tiring.
Furthermore, Yale was using Bloodline Force with his three bloodlines to boost even more his Spiritual Sense; only with all those conditions, he was able to barely create the Thunder Ice Sword Rain.
While Yale was almost ready to execute his attack someone else was in the sky observing him, but Yale didn't notice about that presence.
"Another Origin Skill. Too reckless, without my protection you would have attracted more trouble."
That was the Mysterious Expert who had helped Yale in the past, but Yale was still unsure about its existence and only had guessed a bit based on the words of Aiwai and Paku.
The battle between Ralen and the bandit leader was intense, and no one seemed to obtain the advantage, which angered the bandit leader who had been dreaming about easily trashing Ralen.
"You fools! Start attacking Sword City now! Let's turn it into a sea of blood!"
The bandit leader shouted using his Inner Qi, so his voice was heard in a few kilometers around.
The bandits roared after hearing those words, and they started attacking the gates. On the other hand, those in Sword City were scared, but they still believed that the Sword Mage would make another miracle.
In the sky, Yale had also heard those words filled with killing intent, but that only made him smile.
"So, do you want a sea of blood? Then, you will have a sea of blood, but I think that the blood won't be of those people you want it to be."
At that moment the swords stopped revolving around Yale and started to go towards the ground. The world's resonance also appeared, but it was covered by the clouds and the possibility of sensing it was blocked by the Mysterious Expert.
Some kilometers away from Sword City that shout was also heard, provoking a change on the face of a middle-aged man.
"Although we didn't control Sword City directly, it was still created by our Larken Clan. Those words are disregarding our prestige completely. You can just dream to leave alive after saying those words. If you don't die today, I will need to kill myself for being unable to protect the clan's honor."
All the youngsters following the middle-aged man nodded, they were also angry after hearing someone disregarding the Larken Clan. If they didn't protect Sword City after that, they would tarnish the honor of the Larken Clan.
The Larken Clan was righteous, but they also have an extremely strong sense of honor, losing that honor would be worse than death to them. That was one of the main reason people didn't dare to anger them; offending a bunch of people who didn't care of their lives as long they protect the honor of their clan was something that everyone wanted to avoid.
When the middle-aged man was about to rush alone to kill the man who shouted those words, everyone saw that it started to rain, and it seemed like it was a thunderstorm because they heard thunders noises.
However, they didn't know that the thunderstorm wasn't made from water and thunders, but from thin ice swords covered by thunder.
The bandits attacking the door didn't stop when they heard those storm noises. It wasn't until some of them were hit by that strange storm rain that they started to panic.
"What happened? Why is everyone dying without reason?"
Due to the ice swords disappearing after hitting the target, they didn't understand what was happening, but they were all dying without stop.
"There is something strange with this thunderstorm, be careful!"
One of the bandits at the Practitioner Rank shouted, and he was also the first into blocking an ice sword just after saying that. However, even blocking it, the thunder highly damaged him and a second ice sword killed him immediately. That was the main reason Yale added thunder to the Origin Skill, even blocking it, the thunder would provoke some damage and a second ice sword would be able to finish the job.
With the effects of his current Bloodline Force, Yale was comparable to a 3-star Practitioner while the one who died was just a 4-star Practitioner who was had stats comparable to the peak of 1-star Practitioner at most.
"This isn't a thunderstorm! This is an attack from someone who should have at least reached the Veteran Rank in the Magus Path. Retreat! An outsider is protecting Sword City!"
The bandit leader wasn't too knowledgeable about the powers of the Magus Path, but he believed that by killing someone at the Practitioner Rank such easily with an area attack, the other party shouldn't be at the Expert Rank like himself. The bandit leader couldn't believe that there was such a huge difference between the Warrior Path and the Magus Path.
He was wrong; there were Expert Magus who could create attacks as deadly as the Thunder Ice Sword Rain in a similar area, but only the most talented ones were able to do it. If he were to knew that the one who cast the attack was a kid who was at the Apprentice Rank, he might die from jealousy.
"Ralen, you have no sense of honor! You asked an outsider to help you!"
Those words were extremely shameless coming from a bandit who was raiding the city; it wasn't like both of them were having a fair duel, and the ice swords avoided them, so their battle wasn't interrupted. Yale knew that he wouldn't be able to kill the bandit leader with that attack.
Ralen knew that the one attacking was Yale because that was their plan, but such a huge killing power surpassed all his expectations.
However, although Ralen was shocked, he continued attacking the bandit leader because he didn't plan to let him help the other bandits to escape.
