As many techniques fell together, different attacks landed. Before the techniques would release their full might, William would flash, pass through them, and weirdly enough he'd look like he was absorbing the techniques, adding them to one of his tails!
He wasn't truly absorbing it, but using an element that was used in these techniques. As he didn't have all the elements other masters had, he had to improvise and mix a few elements together, making different element masters release their techniques in the same spot.
And in the middle of these techniques combining their full devastation force, he'd flash, and use an element present in that mix, while activating another Holy Sword technique. Doing this would let the explosive techniques that were in the middle of getting unleashed merge with his Holy Sword, using that common element as a medium, ending up forming a layer over one of his tails.
Like this, he became the maestro who orchestrated the whole thing, the anchor who would let everything get laid over him, and the main key player in the last form of this technique.
"Don't tell me… He is going to release all these techniques together, all at once!!!" Sloth was the most experienced one among the old masters here about William's way of fighting. He watched him execute his Holy Sword technique frequently and knew how scarily strong it'd be if he got time and accumulated enough attacks over his tails.
Seeing him absorb other masters' attacks and add them over his tails made Sloth jump to this conclusion. And when he did, he couldn't help but take another look at the seven hundred masters William gathered, "is he… Planning to borrow their techniques and strengths, mix them with his, and release all in one single technique? Can he really do it? Can his spirit power suffice for that?!!"
Sloth was indeed a veteran and a genius master for him to spot the main issue William had to solve, or any master other than William. Spirit power was indeed quite limited for him, but by using elixirs, nothing was impossible!
William was borrowing others' techniques, but he needed to consume his spirit power madly to control all this. Not to mention he wasn't just adding them up as Sloth and others thought, he was merging them as well.
As he accumulated more of these techniques, things started to grow harder and the pressure madly increased. He could feel his spirit body trembling under such pressure, and for a moment there he feared he wouldn't be able to handle everything.
Even if he was replenishing his spirit power using elixirs, the pressure over his body couldn't just be solved by spirit power. It felt like he needed to be on the higher stages of the dark gold grade to be able to control all these techniques, especially when they started to resist his control the more he added techniques over his tails.
Yet he never felt his body was going to crash, and that made him continue doing this until he'd hit the rock bottom of his endurance. William was wrong, it wasn't because he could endure that his body didn't crash, but it was thanks to his spirits or the third one in particular.
Under such pressure, it felt as if the needed stimulus, the one that William was missing, was finally here. The dog spirit that kept attacking fiercely his other two started to wake up, and integrate with his fox and snake spirits, ending up forming something totally new.
He didn't feel it, and the final result of such a merge and change wouldn't appear right now. The merge needed such pressure to start but also needed a threshold of his spirit power to show up regularly, one he currently didn't have.
As he could sustain the pressure, he kept dashing and moving around, collecting these techniques without thinking about doing anything else. In the end, he had to consume one elixir per minute, which was something scary!
"He gathered everything, and charged his tails, now what?" doing all this might have taken a long time to happen, but it just happened in less than ten minutes. In the end, it wasn't just Sloth who knew what William intended to do, but almost everyone watching what happened did.
Even the ones who knew nothing about William could already guess what he planned to do. They all thought he was just adding up techniques so he could release them one by one, releasing them in a very short duration and in a concentrated manner to add more damage.
Yet no one ever thought he was merging these techniques together, forming a single grand one out of all.
"It's time!" The moment he gathered up the last technique, William looked in one direction and decided to dash toward it, "the last touch must be quite epic! Let me do it big then!"
For the first time ever since coming back in life, he gulped two bottles of elixirs at the same time. This was insane! And no one would do such a thing in normal times, not even him!
The moment he consumed the elixirs, he felt like his body was an oven, filled with raging fire. He felt like a dragon, with its belly storming with deadly fire, wanting to release it out in the form of a fiery breath.
The next instant, William dashed. This time he didn't cross a few tens of metres, didn't cross hundreds of them, he crossed five kilometres in one second, looking as if he got teleported instantly there.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm And before anyone could keep up with his sudden leap, he landed his sword, coupled with all the brightly shining tails his, releasing all the attacks together.
William wasn't just adding techniques randomly on his tails, in fact, he was doing this according to the layout in his mind. He laid down the techniques on each tail to merge together, and that made every tail like having a smaller version of the final grand technique.
