A cone of fire descended upon Xanthus's form, immediately landing upon him and apparently settling upon his armor. The man himself merely watched his opponent go sailing past his head, showing a seemingly uncaring attitude towards the flames that would have been devouring his flesh had he been unarmored. Deactivating his lightsabers and placing them upon the magnetic lock on his back, Xanthus gathered the Force to himself and focused on the fires briefly, just long enough to draw the air away from them and snuff them out completely. By then the battle had been changed completely and irrevocably. Sith and Imperial reinforcements were arriving en masse behind him, the Jedi were gathering together for a retreat, and the battle was genuinely winding down. Sighing deeply, Xanthus combined Force speed with jump, executing a Force Dash that placed him in front of the Sith Juggernaut whom had been sent backwards. He was now foremost among the Sith with unabated view of the Jedi, though not for long it seemed. Within moments, his opponent blasted a large amount of dirt and debris straight outwards, clearing the landscape immediately in front of him and attempting to blind the Sith. The tactic would fail against Xanthus, considering that he was wearing a helm that had several settings of penetrating visions, however reflex demanded that a barrier be raised. "Acolyte, get behind me." Xanthus said with a deadly calm as he stared at the Jedi from within his helmet. 'Hmm...another day, Jedi.'
He thought to himself as he assumed a physical stance that would enable him to channel the Force more fluidly. Similarly to Feng, Xanthus would make himself rather tired through the use of this stance, which some referred to as Force Potency. In essence, it using it would enable one to strike with much more power than usual, at the cost of fatigue at the technique's conclusion. Bringing a large amount of energy into himself, Xan met Fang's debris wall with a powerful blast of pure Force energy. Like the Sith Master, Xanthus was also exceedingly skilled in Telekinesis, and he was most skilled in precise applications thereof. Instead of making an attack with a large radius and hoping to match Fang power for power, Xanthus instead opted to strike a point along this radius with a concentrated burst of amplified power. This would theoretically allow Xanthus to penetrate the debris wall at the point directly in front of him, keeping those immediately behind him safe from its effects while simultaneously striking his opponents with a wall of kinetic Force. "A parting gift." Xanthus said with a smile through gritted teeth.
