Life After Prison

Chapter 1911
The sword energy produced a deafening whistling sound as it sliced the air into tiny fragments. The
attack was fast approaching Shyam, and he could already sense the crisis he was about to face when his
skin tingled from the sword energy that enveloped him. He tried to escape but found himself rooted to
the ground.
Though he was already a level five supreme saint, he felt a surge of panic in facing what was possibly his
most difficult adversary to date. As Severin’s attack approached, Shyam acted swiftly and waved his
hand to produce a small bronze shield from his spatial ring.
Upon producing the shield, Shyam infused it with an immense amount of spiritual power. The shield then
expanded rapidly, reaching the size of a millstone. Though the aura surrounding the shield suggested that
it was merely a low–grade spiritual weapon, Shyam had tempered it for many years and raised its defense
capabilities to formidable levels. The shield was practically a part an extension of him.
As the sword energy landed on the shield, Shyam tightened his grip on his Black Ice Sword with a glint of
determination. He thought to himself. If I can withstand this sword energy and distance myself from him,
I might just get a chance to turn the situation around!
Shyam deemed Severin to be too naive, and he felt that Severin’s act of accepting a challenge from a
higher–level opponent was a rather irrational one.
Severin had shown extraordinary talent in progressing to level four supreme saint within two months, but
there was still a gap in strength compared to Shyam’s attainment. However, Shyam believed that it would
be difficult to defeat Severin.

Being in the top ten on the Grandiuno Sect’s prodigy rankings was proof of his strength, which almost
certainly surpassed that of many elite disciples. Furthermore, he had consumed the Savagery Pill to
momentarily boost his attainment to level six supreme saint.
However, Shyam’s thought processes were halted abruptly as Severin’s sword light collided forcefully
with the bronze shield. A deafening roar was unleashed, and a violent shockwave swept through the
place like a hurricane.
Shyam shielded himself, but the pressure was mounting due to his position at the epicenter. It was as if a
mountain was bearing down on his chest, stifling his breathing. The solid defense afforded by the shield
spared Shyam from serious injury. Though he suffered only minor scratches, he was propelled more than
thirty feet away.
Severin observed that Shyam had been momentarily distracted, and a cold smile crept across his face.”
I’ve got to hand it to you, that was pretty brave of you to space out while you were facing me,” he
Severin’s spiritual energy surged once more as he swiftly made his next move to attack Shyam. He threw a resounding punch
toward Shaym, and his fist bore down on Shyam like mini replications of the sun.
True–Sun Fist!”
Shyam barely had any time to react as a sudden surge of crisis gripped him. However, his attainment as a supreme saint had
thankfully conferred a lightning–like reflex on him. He immediately raised the shield in anticipation of a similar move like before,
but Severin was determined to prevent Shyam from having a second chance.
Having executed a flurry of attacks with the True–Sun Fist, Severin then infused the Scarletsky Sword with spiritual power and
slashed it in Shyam’s direction. The entire sky radiated brightly as a sword energy that extended several hundred feet long
descended upon him. The arena near the Fifth Mountain became engulfed in a radiant cascade of energy.
