Chapter 498: Couldn’t Hold Back and Have to Mimic
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
The cultivators of the Morning Star Sea Realm called the vast ocean to their west, which few people had ever visited, the outer sea.
This area was fraught with sea monsters and demons. It had been a forbidden zone for humans since the ancient times.
“What demons are trying to mess with us?”
The faint singing sounds in the wind of the ocean intended to bring people into a deep dream.
“Guard your minds and concentrate!”
Among the group, some were elite disciples coming out for worldly experience.
Obviously, the unknown demons were quite powerful, and Mo Xian and the other disciples with lower cultivation strengths began to feel fuzzy. Although they had surpa.s.sed the True Lake Realm and were close to the Divine Ocean Realm, they were still much weaker than the others.
Frustrated, she glanced at Yue Yan beside her and said, “Junior Sister… how come you’re not affected?!”
Yue Yan was chanting, “Remain icy clear in mind; stay calm if the sky crashes down…”
“Junior Sister Liu, you feel nothing too?!” Mo Xian gaped at her junior sisters around her.
“Didn’t you watch Wind and Cloud?!”
“No…” Mo Xian was puzzled.
“Then, we can’t help you.”
“Ahh…!”
…
“What the heck is so awesome about this Final Fantasy?! What is das.h.i.+ng and handsome?”
Although the task only required Fang Qi to expand the Yuanyang City shop to 1,000 computers, Fang Qi had increased the seats to over 2,000 to accommodate the large number of disciples of other families and factions besides the ordinary customers and disciples of the ancient families.
Since each player got to play 8 hours each day, and the hours of operation of the shop was 16 hours a day, the shop could accommodate about 4,000 customers if each of them used up the 8-hour daily limit.
Due to the expansion, the players of Yuanyang City didn’t have to wait in line. No longer anxious for seats, some players stood behind Jiang Xiaoyue and watched the movie.
They heard Jiang Xiaoyue yell and scream all throughout the movie.
“Hey! Go and watch it by yourselves!” At this moment, Jiang Xiaoyue was watching the final battle between Cloud and Sephiroth. Enthralled, she sat straighter and wouldn’t budge for anything.
Both characters had the genes of Jenova which was famous for its ability to destroy planets. As the most elite soldiers, Cloud and Sephiroth’s saber and sword techniques were ultimately fast and clean. Sephiroth’s saber was like a perfect tool for killing; the slim and long blade danced without any tricks and weaknesses. Everything that the blade touched, including thick iron plates and even heavy boulders, was hacked open smoothly like tofu.
“Senior Sister, should we watch it or not?” Mu Qing asked angrily, “She is so enthralled that she is ignoring us! What is so good about it?”
At this moment, Gu Tingyu was enjoying iced red tea while holding a bottle in his arms.
“Wow!” he sighed with satisfaction.
“Ugh? Why are you all standing here?”
“We asked Junior Sister Xiaoyue whether Final Fantasy is good or not, but she is ignoring us!”
“Hmph! She only knows how to enjoy it herself!”
“Let’s go and watch it too!”
Tang Yu, Xun Yuan, and the others wondered, “Shall we…”
Gu Tingyun murmured, “Should I try it too?”
Immediately, they all began to watch the movie.
At this moment, the early viewers such as Su Tianji and Song Qingfeng had reached the end where the climax was.
As the most powerful existence amongst these soldiers, Sephiroth was called the legendary hero; he was the perfect product of the Jenova Project and had the horrifying power to destroy planets. Even though he only had less than half of his original power after his resurrection, his powerful combat techniques and horrifying battle experience struck despair into his opponents.
“So strong!” Song Qingfeng and the other viewers watched the scenes wide-eyed, thrilled by the battle full of bone-crus.h.i.+ng punches and blood-inducing strikes.
“How come this person has wings?!” Su Tianji exclaimed and almost dropped the spicy stick that she was chewing in her mouth.
The long saber that was about three meters long casually stabbed forward and pierced the defense of Cloud’s huge, double-handed saber before going through the latter’s chest with vicious force, nailing him in mid-air.
When the last black feathered wing spread out, the audience felt that Sephiroth’s aura had grown to a horrifying new height!
The battle scenes were even more thrilling in the remake version. The legendary soldier had revealed a small part of his combat techniques that were designed for killing.
The blade slashed up.
As fast as lightning, the saber energies followed Cloud who had been thrown into the air. With m.u.f.fled blade cries, the extremely long saber struck out eight times in the blink of an eye, moving like light flashes.
“This Sephiroth is das.h.i.+ng! Superb!”
“What is das.h.i.+ng again?!” Lin Shao and the others who hadn’t reached this part asked, “Isn’t Sephiroth a bad guy?”
“Keep watching. It’s awesome!”
“Ahh–!” Dong Qingli, a fan of all stories, wouldn’t miss any movies or TV Series. At this moment, she almost jumped up from her seat with a shriek.
“What’s so das.h.i.+ng?” A black shadow was hiding in a corner. Since a new movie came out today, he enjoyed it while sipping iced red tea.
The dark clouds in the sky spun above Sephiroth’s head like a huge vortex. In his one-winged angel form, Sephiroth stood in mid-air with his long saber while his silver hair fluttered in the strong wind. With his presence getting deeper and more horrifying like a bottomless abyss, he looked like a demonic G.o.d who had just fallen from Heaven.
“Pu~” Watching this scene, he almost spat out the red tea in his mouth.
For one instant, he felt like this was what a bad*ss antagonist should look like!
He had a feeling that he had worked hard in vain all these past years.
The battle continued. With the powerful healing ability of the genes of Jenova, Cloud could still continue the battle despite many setbacks. Now, he unleashed 120% of his combat force.
– In the final moment –
“What technique is this?!”
The cultivators and warriors who were watching the movie in the three shops almost yelled again at the same time.
Emitting a pale blue light, the huge blade in Cloud’s hand suddenly split.
Five blades surrounded the two from all directions as if they were alive and intelligent.
Cloud’s weapon, the ‘Fusion Sword’, was a big weapon consisting of six swords. Cloud transformed into a blurry shadow while the sword and sword energies hacked toward his rival from all directions.
Black feathers flew up into the sky. Even protected by his feathered wing, Sephiroth was severely wounded in the blink of an eye.
The viewers couldn’t see the two powerful soldiers in the sky; dark blue shadows and lights pierced the clouds.
“Both of them are so das.h.i.+ng!”
“I feel like I know how to use the giant sword techniques!” Song Qingfeng immediately ran out.
“I feel like I can also use the saber techniques!” Lin Shao followed him, practicing with his saber and creating whistling sounds.
“You guys know nothing!” With a snort, Su Tianji got a clothes pole from somewhere; it was indeed long. “Look at my sword strike!”
She copied the moves with which Sephiroth threw Cloud into the sky.
“Return my clothes pole if you are so capable!”
