Chapter 6712 Joshua's Own Power
Venerable Joshua had arguably made one of the stupidest decisions in his life.
He placed himself in a corner and practically begged the Bitter Swordsman to come and take over his body!
Such an action amounted to nothing less than suicide for most people. The Bitter Swordsman was the source of much of the Bitter Scimitar's extraordinary power. The demonic artifact spirit possessed power that was on the same level of a design spirit in certain aspects.
For Joshua to challenge this entity to a showdown over the control of his own body was not the wisest decision for that reason!
After the initial collisions, Joshua immediately understood that the Bitter Swordsman was both competent and experienced in these kinds of battles.
The artifact spirit started out strong. He leveraged his full power to amplify his momentum and suffocate Joshua. He also transformed aspects of his intangible self and turned into a demonic swordsman that actively used his resentment to draw upon a large amount of negative energies!
Though Joshua was able to block the flow of much of these dark and corrupting energies due to his willpower, the effort induced a lot of strain!
That was not all. The Bitter Swordsman did not just rely on his strong control over malevolent energies to wear Joshua down, but also took action more directly by flashing forward and launching a flurry of attacks with a spiritual copy of the Bitter Scimitar!
Unlike Joshua and the Everchanger, the artifact spirit was able to wield the Bitter Scimitar with a great degree of proficiency and control.
Even if the copy in his hand was not identical to the real D-arm, the artifact spirit was still able to rely on his great familiarity and understanding of the scimitar to simulate
its power.
The Bitter Swordsman's offensive kicked into an even higher gear when the weapon in his arm began to charge itself up by absorbing a certain type of E Energy!
"What?!"
Joshua reacted with shock as he could feel that the artifact spirit's weapon had actually imitated the phasewater-charged tech that was supposed to make the Bitter Scimitar so deadly against phase lords.
The difference between this version and the original D-arm was that the former absorbed life energy in order to empower its blade!
This was extremely bad news for Joshua as life E. energy happened to be his primary
element!
