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.
