Chapter 257: The Power that Shakes the Heavens!
“Pearls of Faction Change?”
Jiang Feng was slightly surprised as he propped himself up on the Deicide, a smile on his face.
It could be said that the Pearls of Faction Change were made for the s.h.i.+fters.
The s.h.i.+fters had a lack of manpower. As most of the monsters had very little intelligence, restoring the s.h.i.+fters would be very difficult.
But with the players joining him, then it would be very different.
Even if they were few, their power could increase by a few folds with the help of the other monsters.
Boom. Boom. Boom…
At this time, the clouds were approaching as he could hear the beatings of the war drums.
Several powerfully built Celestial Generals were beating a gigantic leather drum with mallets.
Come!
Jiang Feng was ready to face them!
The clouds ferrying the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals stopped at exactly one thousand meters away from him.
Li Jing, the PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King, and Qiu Si flew away from the clouds and stopped about a hundred meters away from Jiang Feng.
Qiu Si looked at Jiang Feng and said plainly, “s.h.i.+fter Emperor. It has nothing to do with you this time. We’re here for Sun Wukong, so you better step aside!”
Jiang Feng took out a chicken drumstick and a jar of wine, and answered him after taking a bite and a drink, “What if I don’t?”
Qiu Si then frowned and answered with but a word, “Die!”
Jiang Feng drank the entire jar of wine in one gulp and threw away the chicken drumstick and the wine jar, then stood up as he answered him, “I’m. Oh. So. Very. Scared!”
However, in his mind, his response was wildly different, ‘You. Can. Go. F. Yourself!’
Qiu Si then said with a sneer, “Don’t blame me for granting your death wish then, kill him!”
With his command, the Divine Dragon Guards, Celestial Soldiers, and Celestial Generals all attacked him.
Boom!
Just as Qiu Si had finished talking, Jiang Feng held up the gigantic Deicide and violently slammed toward the Divine Dragon Guards, Celestial Soldiers, and Celestial Generals that rushed toward him.
The strike immediately slammed away several hundred Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals.
“Infernal Shades! Attack!”
As soon as he had swept away the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals, Jiang Feng banged his foot on the Monster Cloud and used Infernal Shades. He then took the shrunk down Deicide, used two positioning skills, and immediately made his way to the Celestial Soldiers.
The Celestial Soldiers only had the powers of Spiritual Beasts, and were the weakest.
At this time, Deicide had yet to fully develop. He had to first kill the weakest ones and use Blood Burst to stack up his attack.
“I will leave this to you, I shall go and capture that monkey!” Li Jing said to Qiu Si and flew toward the glowing sphere in the distance.
Qiu Si then drew out the Divine Dragon Sword and headed toward Jiang Feng, who was fighting within the legion of Celestial Soldiers.
When Jiang Feng saw that Li Jing was heading toward the sphere enveloping Grandmaster Bodhi and Sun Wukong, he frowned and quickly withdrew from the battle.
“Little s.h.i.+fter Emperor, focus. There is no need to worry about us. As long as the Jade Emperor stays his hand, no one can harm us!” Grandmaster Bodhi’s voice entered his ears as soon as he withdrew from immediate combat.
After he heard that, he then s.h.i.+fted his attention back and ignored Li Jing and once again attacked the Celestial Soldiers.
On the other side, Li Jing held the Linglong PaG.o.da in his hand, then threw it casually toward the sphere covering Grandmaster Bodhi and Sun Wukong.
“Absorb!” He said, and a golden light shot at the Linglong PaG.o.da. It covered the light sphere and pulled it into itself.
***
“Fire Domain! Dao of Man!”
As soon as Jiang Feng was surrounded by the Celestial Soldiers, he activated his Fire Domain. His entire body was surrounded by a blazing fire. Next, Deicide became a prismatic longsword. He then used his ultimate skill as he attacked the group of Celestial Soldiers.
When Qiu Si saw that Jiang Feng was specifically slaying the weaker Celestial Soldiers, he quickly commanded the Celestial Generals to help, “Stop him!”
At this point, a group of fully equipped Celestial Generals sprinted toward Jiang Feng.
However, Jiang Feng did not fight them at all. Instead, he pursued the Celestial Soldiers.
“Dao, Dao, Dao…”
With each “Dao” that he muttered, a sword of light would shoot out from the prismatic longsword in his hand and beam toward a nearby Celestial Soldier.
With so many swords of light being fired, he managed to slay many Celestial Soldiers. He did not mind all the pieces of equipment and items dropped as well so he used the Lianyao Flask to take them all in.
After killing 13 Celestial Soldiers, Deicide’s attack had increased to 1.3%.
He did not enter into the Berserk state. Instead, he was quite calm. He knew that in a battle this scale, he could easily enter a state of Slaughter or even Indifference.
As for the Golden Body of Lanruo, he did not choose to use it now. He was going to use it once Deicide’s attack had reached 100%.
At his peak, his current stats were:
HP: 10,000,000
Attack: 4,000,000
Defense: 1,700,000
Once Deicide’s attack had reached 100%, his attack would double. At that time, not even the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals could beat him, unless a large group of Divine Kings appeared.
Since his defense did not increase, if he were surrounded by a group of Divine Kings that could be compared to Divine Beasts, he would still be in danger. He could easily be instantly killed.
Of course, among those that were present, only Li Jing was a Divine King. Most of them were only Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Soldiers. There was nothing for him to be afraid of.
However, he was still being careful when he was fighting.
If he were accidentally struck by a bunch of skills at the same time, he could still be injured.
“Divine Dragon Pierce!”
After killing another Celestial Soldier, and when he was going to attack another Celestial Soldier, he felt an intense pain from behind him. Qiu Si appeared behind him and slashed at his arm with his next attack, drawing out a great splash of blood.
-3,890,000
-1,930,000
***
Two attacks took out almost half his health bar.
“Tornado!”
“Tornado, Blink!”
At this time, Qiu Si used the Tornado skill that was on the Divine Dragon Sword. At the same moment, Jiang Feng also used the Tornado Skill, and used Blink to move to another location and dodged Qiu Si’s tornado skill.
“Impossible!”
After dodging, he was shocked when he saw that his Tornado did not cause any damage to Qiu Si at all. Instead, he was sneering at him.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
At this time, a large number of skills had reached him. He was not going to save anything anymore. He took out the last Talisman of Invulnerability that he had and used it on himself. That would give him invulnerability for 1 minute.
He guessed that the reason that Qiu Si could defend against his Tornado skill was probably for the same reason, using some method to give him invulnerability.
After blocking all the attacks, he transformed into a gigantic White Tiger, then let out an angry roar with his large mouth, “Roar! Tiger Roar!”
This Tiger Roar was devastating this time with a huge range. It had an arc of 30 degrees and 50 meters wide.
In an instant, all the Celestial Soldiers on this line all were left with slithers of health. Even the Celestial Generals only had less than half of their HP left. Qiu Si, on the other hand, still had not lost any health. Instead, he called out fifteen clones of himself and all of them sprinted toward Jiang Feng.
“Slam of Mount Tai!”
Jiang Feng used another wide-area skill, and instantly killed all the Celestial Soldiers that had little health left. He did not pay any attention to Qiu Si’s attack, and quickly picked off the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals.
He had 1 minute’s worth of Invulnerability. He would only fight with Qiu Si who was similarly in an invulnerable state if he were an idiot. Of course, he chose to kill the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals to make Deicide grow in power.
“Hmph! s.h.i.+fter Emperor, your invulnerability only has a duration of 1 minute. The duration of my invulnerability is much longer than yours, so I suggest you give up!”
Qiu Si was very arrogant. He had received three pills that grant him invulnerability from Taishang Laojun, and each of them had a duration of 5 minutes. It was much longer than Jiang Feng’s.
“Give up? Don’t get too c.o.c.ky! I will let you have a taste later on what it means to have a power that shakes the heavens!” Jiang Feng answered him coldly as he slaughtered the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals.
“You are too arrogant!” Qiu Si smiled coldly, and then shouted at the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals, “All of you, spread out! Form the Bagua Formation and bind him. Expend the duration of his invulnerability!”
With that, all the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals retreated and began to form a formation, and they were planning to use it to bind Jiang Feng.
