Xander gripped his scythe in his right hand and shot toward him like a bullet. The Dream Cleaver's curved blade slashed downward at full power, but the cultist blocked the attack with the chains wound around his arm.

Sharp steel clashed against cold iron, and the jarring clang resonated across the summit. Xander kept raining blow after blow, but all his attacks were blocked by the cultist's chains.
