Sam could feel all his meridian network going numb for a moment. He wouldn't be able to circulate the energy normally like that.

After closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, Sam noticed a huge threat that is looming over the cocoon and also a fierce attack that was going to hit him.

But he didn't hurry. He still had his eyes closed and the spiritual energy started moving all over his body, he is not using the meridian network, rather using the muscle fibers to circulate the energy, he might not be able to use elemental attacks because it would be torturous to convert the spiritual energy into elemental energy without flowing through the meridian network.

But the elemental attacks are not the only cards up his sleeve. His arsenal is full of so many attacks that he didn't even have a chance to use them at all.

As he concentrated, all the spiritual energy started concentrating on his vertebrae. It accumulated along the spine, of course over his skin.

Sam wriggled a bit and bent his body into an arch as his belly moved forward. Finally, after one deep breath, he slammed his back into the back of the cocoon.

The spiritual energy exploded on the vines and half of them are damaged, the rest are stuck in a small chaotic spiritual energy storm caused by the sudden void of spiritual energy. This is the Void style he learned from the Monkey king during the previous Palace of Inheritance.

All of this happened in seconds as he kicked his legs forward and tore through the cocoon from the rear.

By this time, not only the spear reached the cocoon, even the fruits exploded.

The large puff of red smoke was blasted all over the cocoon and even the vines are corroding at a visible rate and the spear cleared a small region in the smoke as it blasted towards Sam.

But Sam who is already out of cocoon just fell back without trying to run.

As soon as his back hit the ground, his meridian network is also clear and he kicked both his legs forward and air cannons made him skid on the ground as he moved farther away from the red corrosive smoke.

He could even see the spear moving over him and he could even observe even that spear was corroded.

To corrode the Black star gold to that degree only when it traveled through the smoke just for an instant, one must estimate how good the smoke is.

After the spear went away, Sam finally jumped up and the first thing he did was take a look at his coat. Then only he saw that some feathers are bent on various positions.

The thorns of the vines are so strong that they could even damage his feather coat, it is really his luck that he tempered his body, otherwise he would be done for.

As Sam is checking his feather coat with a cold look, his two opponents gulped hard. This was once chance they got and that too half of it is a surprise attack. They don't believe they will get this lucky every time. They surely lost the golden chance.

Meanwhile, Karthikeya who is looked at the situation was feeling impressed.

He knew Void style pretty well, that is the damn monkey's go-to move in every battle. There is only one reason for using that. Almost all kinds of armors and defenses crumble under that power and almost every fight ended in one punch.

In fact, it was always a bit overkill, even with that one punch.

But for the first time, he saw the void style used in such a way. Even though Sam didn't reach Moneky's skill yet, he is still not bad for his level, and his control over the skill is great to the point he dared to use it at his spine. If something happens, his spine will shatter along with the spiritual energy explosion.

He couldn't help but look at him in a new light.

After examining his coat, Sam slowly walked to his staff that was dropped there and stored it away. It is the normal staff without anything special about it, except that it was made by himself.

He took out another staff and this is also made of Black star gold. He is the biggest profiteer of the Black star Gold and he has more weapons than anyone. He planned to use them as gifts for his subordinates and even placed them in the credit exchange system.

But he has too many to use them all up.

He swung the staff a bit and seemed like he was trying to make himself familiar with it. After that, he finally looked at his two opponents.

"That was a good move. But too bad, it didn't succeed. Let us see if you are lucky enough to get another chance like that."

As he spoke, his body suddenly became golden and even the feather coat was activated. He recently got to know that the feather coat can be used even when he is maintaining the full elemental fusion. So, he is now using it. But he is not in full fusion, just partial fusion, but for the first time, Sam decided to use the light element directly in the battle.

But this time, he is really pissed. Even though the energy usage is high, there is no way he would let them damaging his favorite coat slide just like that. He could even tolerate them ganging up and even tolerate sneak attacks, but not damaging the coat.

Sam disappeared in a golden flash as he appeared right behind Kumar and swung his staff towards his head. The staff is also golden in color filled with elemental energy.

Kumar sensed the attack and hurriedly ducked as he placed the spear to block the attack.

But to his surprise, his ducking was the only option, because the spear he hastily took out turned out to be a normal Grade-5 weapon and it was cut into two. The cut was so clean that no one would believe it was cut in the middle of the battle.

Sam is using the staff in the same style as before and dancing in the wind in the same way. But this time, the vines are being dealt with in a different way. Light blades are being flung from the edge of his staff and his feet.

The Golden light rays are even more lethal and faster than the wind blades by a large margin. The damage is enormous and the vines are cut like crazy. Unlike wind blades that are hard to see by easier to defend, these light blades are completely new to both of them.

They couldn't handle it no matter how they tried.

Soon, Kumar was forced to block one attack from the staff and he didn't have time to dodge at all.

At this moment, he once again used the same technique he used to send Sam flying, but as soon as both of them made contact, his Black star gold spear was destroyed immediately with a spiritual energy explosion.

And a large ball of light suddenly appeared in that spot exploding once again.

This is the result of Void style. Kumar who was sent flying back and crashing into the ground coughed up some blood due to the energy backlash.

Sam felt his arm go numb. He has experimented on how the Void style would work with elemental energy and this is the result.

Even though his skill in Void style is beneath the monkey king and by a large margin, within his range, he mastered all kinds of possibilities.

After he sent him flying, Sam swung staff backward and a large light blade was sent towards Noah. She couldn't help but shudder at the situation and hurriedly dropped some seeds and a cluster of bamboo trees grew rapidly.

When the light blade made contact, the bamboo trees started falling apart being cut by the blades, but the bamboos really did reduce the damage of the light blades and diminished the effect by the time it reached her, it only caused a moderate gash on her shoulder and that too after she dodged.

Everything happened so fast. Sam just stood there and looked at them calmly.

The light element is great and all and it could bypass most of the elements, but the energy drain is of another level. It is actually one of his trump cards and in fact one of his strongest forms. Even the full fire elemental fusion form couldn't rival this light element one when it is only partial fusion. And Sam is most familiar with the fire element, but still, this form beat it; much less the remaining elements.

But the energy drain is something that made him worry. For this small clash half of his energy was drained.

As he was thinking of minimizing the energy drain, he suddenly sensed a large energy fluctuation. Both Kumar and Noah already stood up and both of them are making hand-signs. Sam didn't worry at all. He just stood there waiting.

At first, he observed Kumar, his blood is flowing out and a small ball is floating in front of him. As he made hand signs, the ball transformed into a spear and once again zoomed into his body.

All of a sudden, a blood-red armor appeared on his body and there was even a helmet that covered his face. A blood-red spear manifested in his hand and still, he took out another Black Star Gold Spear and the blood-red spear and the Black spear merged together.

Sam could feel the oppressive aura from Kumar, with this he can even fight a normal Level-1 Pre-transcendent level cultivator.

He then looked at Noah who is also creating something big.

Then he saw another scene that is somewhat similar. The blood flowed out and floated, but it morphed into a large seed and she slammed the seed into the ground.

As soon as she did so a lot of seeds flew out of that spot and covered the whole area.

The whole region started having blood-red sprouts and soon turned into a forest in an instant and within that forest, Noah disappeared.
