The second prince knew what would happen. Thus, he immediately used his power to gather the power of heaven and earth and became one with them. He didn't waste any time and immediately threw offa large force made of air and land.
"Too late!" The first prince sneered and said. His treasure palace opened and an ancient book appeared. It looked like it had an age of billions to trillions of years now.
The second prince stopped the attack and looked at this book. He was greatly surprised and said, "You... Where did you get that?"
It was a treasure the second prince had sought for all his life. Yet now, it was in the possession of his enemy. Just what kind of trick was this?
"You don't need to know." The first prince activated the book and it scanned its pages immediately giving a blinding light, "After all, you're going to die here!"
This book was called Anciently Whisper. It was made by the strongest universal law who passed away during the time immemorial. It was the only treasure he left and everyone wanted to get it. However, the location remained unknown and not even once did they had a clue about it.
Now, it seemed that the book was on his eldest brother's pocket. But the question was, how did he get that? Or rather, who gave that to him? The second prince firmly believed that his brother had no capability to find it. After all, even their father was helpless against it.
"Activate!" The first prince shouted and the book released the blinding light then a thick zone of lazer beams around the second prince. The time stopped as circular forces gathered around the vicinity.
"Stabilize!" The second prince could sense the intense danger from this and used all of his defensive treasures. Even his most valuable defense treasure was used to protect him from this attack.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Energy force came crushing down the second prince's defense in consecutive manner. The attack was like a machine gun filled with unlimited bullet as it persisted on attacking the defensive formations that the second prince installed.
"Crack!" After 30 seconds, a crack formed in his formation which gave him a great shock and a bit of horror. His defense formations boasted its impregnable state where not even the power of the heavens could destroy. Yet, the power coming from this book can? He immediately added several layers of protection and thought of a way to attack. He couldn't just wait here and let his brother do it the way he wanted.
"Keep struggling like a mouse. It will be the end for you sooner and later. That won't change." The first prince didn't expect that the second prince could protect himself from this. This book was very powerful that if ever he was the one to take it on, he wouldn't mind running away to preserve his life.
"Just wait, Eldest Brother. Sooner or later too, that book will be mine." The second prince didn't mind all the words and kept his calm. He needed to think straight and rational if he wanted to win this battle.
"Activate!" The second prince found an interval to attack and immediately activated it. Millions of swords appeared like ants above, ready to tear their enemies and destroy the world.
"Attack!" The power of each sword could destroy a sect or two without further ado. It crashed down and created beams of white light with a sharp end, directly heading towards the first prince.
"Useless attempt." The first prince had anticipated this. He immediately flipped the book and skimmed through, it stopped in a certain page and created a large figure of the same book but a transparent version.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The light swords couldn't get through this and kept on being destroyed upon contact.
"Is this all you've got, Second Brother?" The first prince gave a provocative smile. The light swords were helpless against the defense he created.
"Whoosh!" However, the second prince knew that it was not enough. So it wasn't the end of his plan. He dashed towards where the first prince was with a speed faster than light by several times, he carried his sword with a light aura covering it.
The second prince aimed for the neck and gave a vicious look. He needed to make this attack reach his brother or else he wouldn't have the chance next time.
"Clang!" Unfortunately, the blade didn't reach the neck as a tough book appeared to block it.
"..." The second prince widened his eyes in stupefaction. He calculated everything and it should work according to it. But what was this? Why was it blocked like it was an effortless job?
"Ah, you thought that victory is within your grasp right?" The first prince smiled like a devil and said, "The victory that supposed to be yours didn't come. How bad it is for you. But really, you're trying to kill me and that how it should be."
The second prince tried to back off but his feet was stuck as vines covered his leg from the land. He tried to cut it but he couldn't.
The first prince didn't waste time and pierced the blade towards the second prince's stomach.
Blood flowed like from the second prince like a flowing river. He used all his remaining strength left and cut the annoying vines and backed off. It was a bit late though, as he was already injured.
The first prince was wondering. He was clearly aiming for the heart, yet he pierced the stomach. He didn't know why, but he felt something controlled him for a split second. He scanned his surroundings until he reached 100 kms, yet he didn't find someone else.
"Grug!" The second prince spurt a mouthful of blood after recovering his breath. The injury he got was still severe. After all, it almost pierced his dantian.
He was losing, and anytime he'll be killed. But he was running out of choices and didn't know what to do. And suddenly, he remembered a certain person. After a few seconds, a glint of determination flashed in his eyes.
