Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sanjay looked at the Ice dragon which trapped Sam.

But it is not as transparent as before. He could only see Sam's silhouette, which is surrounded by golden flames, and the surrounding ice has turned into water. Only the outer shell of the dragon was left, trapping the water which is turbulently moving within the shell making Sam's image extremely blurry.

Sam looked towards Sanjay and punched straight towards him.

The turbulent water current punched a hole through the icy shell and made its way towards Sanjay. The water is extremely hot as it emitted vapors.

Sanjay felt a sense of crisis as he looked at the jet of extremely hot water. He made some hand-signs and created an inclined ice-wall and continuously poured his spiritual energy into it.

The water which hit the ice wall was diverted upwards, even though the water is hot, Sanjay's continuous reinforcement of the wall with the ice elemental energy made it hard for it to melt.

The whole battle-ground suddenly turned damp as the water rained down.

Just when the stream ended, Sanjay couldn't even get enough time to relax as he felt a huge physical force hitting the ice wall.

The wall collapsed as he was blasted away.

When he was sent flying backward, he vaguely saw Sam making his move.

Sam squatted until his things are parallel to his ground and leaped into the air.

He extended his body to the full and arched his back as he placed the arms above his head and forearms facing the sky. He followed a parabolic trajectory and his whole body was covered with wind elemental energy.

He condensed all the wind elemental energy towards his arms and joined both of them as he smashed the elbows towards Sanjay's chest.

The wind elemental energy condensed into the form of an elephant and the dual-elbow strike represented the elephant striking with its trunk and Sanjay felt the full brunt of the attack on his chest and his ribs caved in.

He was crushed into the ground and a huge crater appeared.

Sanjay felt his bone crack and he felt extremely dizzy as he stood up. Before he could come to his sense, he felt a sudden sense of danger and became alert.

Sam leaped towards Sanjay to take the lead. The duo went through the exchange of blows just like the previous time, but this time, Sanjay was barely able to hold himself in place and he has to use the ice element to enhance his defense.

After this exchange, Sanjay took a step back and created a distance between himself and Sam.

He wiped the blood off of his lips and looked at Sam with trepidation. He was never pushed this far. He is gradually losing the upper hand and already taken some serious strikes.

He has a vexed expression as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

Suddenly, the spiritual energy in his body turned chaotic, and slowly his body started turning into ice.

He is performing elemental fusion. Apart from that Sam also sensed another dense spiritual energy erupting inside Sanjay.

The energy is extremely dense like mercury, even though he couldn't sense it clearly, he knew that it is not good news for him.

At this moment, the faction-head, the ancestor, and Sanjay's uncle had solemn expressions.

"He removed the limiter." The ancestor said in an extremely frightful voice.

Sanjay completely turned into ice and he opened his eyes as he looked at Sam.

"This is the first time, I am using my full strength, I will use my strongest form to defeat you." He left those words and his whole aura raged.

The atmosphere became terrifyingly cold and the surroundings turned foggy. The fog started condensing behind Sanjay and it took a flood dragon form. A battle-spirit formed. The audience turned excited.

Some of the core members know about the limiter that was placed on Sanjay. The limiter acts as a reservoir that stores spiritual energy in a dense state.

This given excess energy for the cultivator for a short period of time.

Sam looked at Sanjay with a smirk. He could feel the energy rumbling within Sanjay. This burst of energy can give Sanjay enough strength to battle an Initial stage Nascent stage cultivator.

Even he felt his whole body trembling with excitement. Nicholas was the only rival he has in this world, but now he felt like battling an equal after a long time. The only difference being, he never wanted to kill Nicholas, but he wanted to desperately take that head off of Sanjay's body.

He wanted to battle until only one of them left. He didn't go through the elemental fusion, for him due to the unique nature of the bloodlines and the effects they caused on the elements they provided, it is not feasible for a long battle in his current level of cultivation, he has to master the control over the fusion if he wants to have any idea of using the fusion.

But he didn't think, that he needs to use these to battle the current Sanjay.

Sanjay made his move and the dragon battle spirit moved along with him.

The two chain sickles are also covered with the ice as he started making his move, but Sam didn't move from his spot, rather he changed his stance as he squatted a little as he made a claw with his hand and folded it to his chest making it parallel to the earth.

Just as Sanjay swung the chain sickles and the dragon spirit dove towards him, he struck with the claw straight at the chest.

The neutral spirit energy turned into a lion form and it struck the claw at the dragon spirit.

Both the attacks struck together and eliminated the impact as both of them were blown back by a few steps.

Sam's smirk turned into a grin as both of them started exchanging blows, and for every attack, Sam threw at him, the spiritual energy was condensed into an animal. Lion, tiger, fish, monitor lizard, horse, elephant.

Every move was inspired and adapted from the respective animal and none of them is a spiritual beast.

And none of them is a battle spirit. This is just the manifestation of his moves indicating the effect of those animals in his battle techniques.

As both of them are continuously exchanging blows, the whole battle-ground was filled with ice and frost.

Sam also started feeling pressure and this due to the sheer amount of energy behind Sanjay's moves.

But he didn't feel a little bit anxious, rather, the grin turned wider and wider. A spirit started manifesting behind his back and it slowly started turning into a human silhouette.

The face and the body are still a bit blurry just like what happened with his fight with Nicholas, the spectators all looked at him in disbelief. They never thought that they could witness a battle-spirit today and they happened to see two of them.

Even though one is a little blurry, they knew it is only a matter of time.

Sanjay, who also noticed the improvement in Sam which is making it difficult for him to land a clean hit, took a step back and noticed the blurry battle-spirit. The manifestation of battle-spirit for a single individual represents the person being in his best state.

Sanjay felt an intense sense of crisis and prepared to make a final move. But this time, his upper garments are completely gone and the situation is not that different for Sam.

Sanjay started condensing all the spiritual energy into his arms, Sam who is also panting with wounds all over his torso also started condensing the spiritual energy in both his claws.

The battle-spirit became clearer and clearer and there is only a faint trace of blur on its face making it hard to recognize whose face it is.

As for the body, they could clearly see a silhouette o the human, with a bare upper chest which is completely full of scars and wounds. There are metallic claws mounted on his fingers and he is wearing a pair of black pants.

Sam and the image are extremely similar, except for the taller build of the person in the spirit and the face, there is no visible difference. Even the stance was similar.

Only Sam could recognize the person in the battle spirit or maybe Ling Tian would recognize. This is the image of Sam in a previous life.

He himself manifested as his own battle-spirit. But the spectators are looking at in extreme confusion, they couldn't recognize the person, after all, they have never even heard of battle-spirits taking humanoid form, they might be in form of beasts, natural objects like mountains and trees, clouds and even some man-made things like musical instruments, weapons and so much more.

But the humanoid was never seen.

Sanjay was also surprised, but he was too focused on defeating Sam, that he doesn't have time to react to this. He kicked his legs off of the ground as he threw the two chain sickles into the air.

The two chains coiled together as they formed a dragon figure manifested by spiritual energy.

The battle spirit and the spiritual energy dragon, both made their way towards Sam.

Sam also kicked his ground as he leaped towards Sanjay.

His battle spirit tackled the two dragons and dug the claws into their heads and pushed them to the ground.

While Sam himself dug his claws into the chest of Sanjay as he tried to tear open the chest diagonally.

He looked at Sanjay directly in the eyes as the sickles were slashed into the shoulders and tried to enter the body.

He was bleeding like crazy, but there is not a single expression of hurt, his face is a bright as sunshine as he dug his claws to rip the heart off.
