Thunder God Technique

"My main task is to destroy this academy; whether you're here or not, it doesn't matter. Joining our sect or not, it doesn't matter either. I offer this to you because I feel it's a waste to let talented people like you be wasted in this Tower of the Gods Academy. I offer another path for you to be more successful as a Cultivator," Caspian Hond stated firmly in response to Julius's question.

"Don't be tempted by his persuasion, Julius. Remember, he's wiped out your entire family, leaving no one behind. Do you want to be a disobedient child by joining and becoming a part of those who have exterminated your family?" exclaimed Master Frostfire.

Master Frostfire had to utter those words because he didn't want Julius to be influenced by the words of the Right-Wing Commander of the Demon Sect. Even though Julius's parents didn't want to dredge up events that would undoubtedly hurt and upset Julius, in order to prevent him from joining the demon sect, Master Frostfire had to do it.

The master's words successfully reminded Julius of the events that befell his family, reigniting his anger. He infused energy into the sword of the four elements he held in his hand. Instantly, the sword emitted four lights representing the four elemental forces.

"Hmmmm... Do you think that by using that thing, you can defeat me? Don't dream, young man! I've forgotten about you all; I truly want to put you on the Path of Progress in the world of cultivators. For a Cultivator to achieve success, it's ordinary to sacrifice many things, including the people they love," Caspian Hond remarked, observing Julius's change in demeanor.

"Do you think only the Demon Sect can lead me to progress? I will prove to you that in due time, it's the demon sect that I will destroy with my own hands. At that time, you will witness it in hell!" Julius retorted firmly.

 Julius immediately attacked the Right-Wing Commander of the Demon Sect with the sword in his hand. The speed of the young man's attack multiplied several times over as he mastered the Sword of the Four Elemental Gods. Moreover, his body was still connected to the combined energy seal created by the masters. Thus, in that state, he was much stronger than before.

Caspian Hond parried Julius's attack using the light sword in his hand. How surprised the Right Wing Commander of Demon Sect was when the clash showed that their situation was evenly matched. Both were pushed back until two spear lengths. His hands experienced strong tingling sensations, almost causing the sword in his hand to slip. However, he didn't have time to think because Julius once again unleashed his deadly attack.

The change in the situation sparked new hope for the people of the Tower of the Gods Academy who witnessed the battle between Julius and the Right Wing Commander of the Demon Sect. Those who previously didn't have much hope for Julius, given his lower level of cultivation compared to his opponent, now turned 180°, hoping that the young man could win the fight. Even with such enthusiasm, the masters added their energy to Julius.

"Be careful, all masters, continue to provide stable energy transmission to our students. The boy's body is not as strong as you might think. Despite his above-average brilliance among the students in the Tower of the Gods Academy, his physique is still too fragile to withstand great power," Master Frostfire reminded.

Realizing their mistake, the masters once again transmitted energy to Julius in the same way as before. Julius himself had experienced a precarious situation. If the masters had known that Julius had almost lost consciousness due to the excessive power entering his body, it would have been detrimental if the situation had continued, but luckily, Master Frostfire reminded them, preventing further loss for their side.

The fierce battle continued between Julius and Caspian Hond. The combined power of the Tower of the Gods Academy masters proved truly effective in enabling the young man to contend with a cultivator at the level of a fourth-tier semi-God. Their current battle remained evenly matched. Several times, they were struck by each other's blows, being thrown far away, even dozens of spear lengths. The injuries they received were only minor, so the intense battle persisted.

For a moment, they both fell silent in their respective places after being pushed back due to the clash of their weapons. Julius himself pondered hard on how to defeat the Right Wing Commander of the Demon Sect. He even thought of combining the Thunder God Sword technique with the Sword of the Four Elemental Gods he held in his hand.

 Julius began to concentrate on performing the technique he had modified to suit the sword he was using. He released the Sword of the Four Elemental Gods, which flew hovering right in front of him. Then, with the seal of the thunder god sword technique, he began to inscribe a seal on the blade in front of him. Surprisingly, what he did worked, causing the four elemental sword to emit the powerful forces of earth, fire, and wind.

Like a storm of the four elemental forces now surrounded Julius, who was already gripping his sword. His body itself radiated lightning elements, increasing the number of elements he emitted to five. With that power, he immediately attacked Caspian Hond fiercely. What he did turned out to be quite successful in putting his opponent on the back foot.

Blaaaaaammm!

A clash of two very powerful weapons occurred. This time, Julius managed to stand firm in his place while his opponent was thrown far away, tumbling to the ground. The Right Wing Commander of Demon Sect even spurted fresh blood from his mouth as he lay sprawled on the ground. He, still kneeling, couldn't believe that Julius's technique managed to penetrate the defense of the light sword he possessed.

Seeing this, the masters channeling their energy into Julius's body through the seal created by Master Kaelen Frostfire appeared delighted. Spontaneously, they shouted and cheered, seeing Julius's superiority in the recent onslaught. This situation, of course, made Caspian Hond extremely furious and angry. He felt humiliated by Julius in front of his potential victims.

"You brat! How dare you injure me like this. Don't expect to live after this. I will make sure you perish without a chance of reincarnation!" growled Caspian Hond as he tried to rise to his feet.

"Julius, quickly finish him off. Don't let him use any unexpected techniques and make us lose again. I suspect there are many cunning tricks he's willing to use to achieve all his desires," shouted Master Frostfire to Julius.

Julius was momentarily influenced by Master Frostfire's words. However, he refrained from doing so after remembering how many times the enemy had given them the opportunity to gather strength. The young man wanted to do the same with his knightly spirit. Although he didn't know the dangers that threatened if the enemy could use the forbidden technique mentioned by Master Kaelen Frostfire.
