Chapter 1315: Power of the Spirit Emperor Realm
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
"Devil Emperor Palm. That"s an Emperor Cla.s.s palm technique! Qingfeng Li is in danger." Having recognized the palm technique used by Zhentian Mo, the surrounding self-cultivators murmured.
In the world of the self-cultivators, the Devil Emperor Palm was infamous for having slain countless masters.
Among those gathered around the battle were those whose friends and family had fallen to the Devil Emperor Palm. They knew the technique well and hated it with a pa.s.sion.
These people were, unfortunately, no match for Zhentian Mo. Otherwise, they"d have rushed to kill Zhentian Mo for vengeance.
Qingfeng Li"s pupils contracted. He felt the threatening power behind Zhentian Mo"s palm strike.
He forced the spirit essence within him to circulate, awakening the Strangle h.e.l.l Body. A faint film of golden light shone from his skin as it hardened into something akin to steel. In the golden sheen, his skin looked like freshly-casted gold.
"Fifth Fists - Moving Heavens and Earth!" Qingfeng Li shouted, using the fifth fist technique of the Strangle h.e.l.l Fist.
And there appeared a ma.s.sive fist, formed from spirit essence, that spanned several hundred meters in width. It flew from the sky, carrying a dominating force as it came.
Boom!
Devil Emperor Palm struck Strangle h.e.l.l Fist, emitting a sky-shattering boom that carried for miles around. Where they collided, there appeared a black spatial vortex.
The first level of h.e.l.l, the s.p.a.ce itself was broken by Qingfeng Li and Zhentian Mo.
Qingfeng Li was forced back by two steps, his face pale. There was a sliver of surprise in his eyes.
"Spirit Emperor Realm… Too strong…" Qingfeng Li though to himself, his brows furrowing. "With my current physical power, there is no way I can complete with that."
"Impossible!" Zhentian Mo was surprised as well. "My Spirit Emperor Realm level strike… how did it not kill you?"
That was the Devil Emperor Palm that Zhentian Mo had just used. It was the most powerful attack from a master of the Spirit Emperor Realm. It could strike an average Spirit King Realm master dead. Even if they were at semi-Spirit Emperor Realm, Zhentian Mo should have been able to kill, or at least maim, them.
可是现在,李清风只是灵王境九阶,竟然挡住了魔震天的攻击.
But now, Qingfeng Li, who was just a Ninth Cla.s.s Spirit King Realm master, had withstood Zhentian Mo"s attack.
The crowd around them were, once more, shocked at the development. Some rubbed their eyes in disbelief, not daring to believe their own eyes.
They had thought that, using a Spirit Emperor Realm attack, Zhentian Mo would have killed Qingfeng Li for sure.
Looking at it now, however, it would have appeared that such was not the case. Unbelievably, Qingfeng Li"s combat ability is on par with that of a Spirit Emperor Realm master.
"Zhentian Mo," Qingfeng Li smiled. "Your pam attack is too weak. Try something else."
Qingfeng was aware that Zhentian Mo"s spirit essence element was earth, and that his attacks usually had to do with the ground. Qingfeng Li wanted to observe Zhentian Mo"s attacks so that he might learn from them.
Qingfeng Li had previously learned three territorial powers. One of these, the Gravity Realm, had to do with the gravity of the Earth.
Last time, Zhentian Mo when had used earth spikes to attack him, Qingfeng Li had felt faintly that the was nearing a breakthrough with his Gravity Realm. All he needed was a catalyst.
Zhentian Mo gave a cold smile, and said, "Qingfeng Li, since you have a death wish, I"ll give you a hand."
"Spirit Emperor Earth Spikes!" Zhentian Mo shouted. His earth style vital essence circulated within him as he slammed his right foot down upon the ground.
As he did, the blackened ground quickly began to converge, forming ten black Earth spikes. Each spike was a meter long, sharp at one end and thick on the other. With tremendous force, they flew at Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li"s face was a mask of concentration. Narrowing his eyes, he closely observed the process by which Zhentian Mo"s Earth spikes had formed.
He"d seen clearly how the spikes were made from the earth.
Qingfeng Li drew his Fire Emperor Sword. With a flick of his wrist, he struck forward. Fiery sword energy tore from the blade, reducing the ten Earth spikes to nothingness with its heat.
Despite having burned the spikes themselves, the ma.s.sive force they had carried still struck Qingfeng Li, forcing him back again. It took him seven or eight steps to steady himself.
Qingfeng Li"s combat ability was nothing to scoff at. But in terms of physical strength, he was still a bit weaker than a master of the Spirit Emperor Realm.
"Humph," Zhentian Mo huffed as he thought scornfully,"So, you can block ten of my Earth spikes. Let"s see how you fare against twenty. I"d like to see how much spirit essence you really have."
Utilizing his Earth Emperor Technique, Zhentian Mo stomped heavily down onto the ground with his right foot, leaving a clear indentation.
Presently, chunks of black soil on the ground began to gather again. This time, they formed a total of twenty earth spikes.
Twenty Earth spikes shot out from all directions. Their surfaces emitted a dark gleam as they flew at Qingfeng Li like spikes of black lightning.
This time, Qingfeng Li got an even better look at the way the dirt was gathered. Having fully understood the process, he logged it into his memory.
Of course, Qingfeng Li"s spirit essence element was fire, and not earth. Honestly, he wouldn"t be able to create earth spikes anyway. He could, however, use his Gravity Realm to create Gravity Force Spikes. This was something he"d been thinking about.
There were many spirit essence elements between heaven and earth. The basic five were metal, wood, water, fire and earth.
The earth element could create Earth spikes; fire element could create fire spikes; water element could create water spikes. So maybe, Qingfeng Li thought, gravitational force from his Gravity Realm could form spikes of gravity.
"Gravity Realm!" Qingfeng Li let out a deep growl. "Gravity Force Spikes!"
Within a radius of a thousand meters, everything was enveloped in a layer of black gravitational energy. The Earth"s pulling force suddenly increased. At the same time, the black earth upon the ground were changing as well.
Within the Gravity Realm, there appeared a black force spike. This force spike was not made of earth elemental power, but of gravitational power. Seeming to be formless, but it was solid all the same.
As this was the first time he"d tried it, Qingfeng Li only created one force spike.
This spike was formed from the power of gravity. It was very powerful, containing immense force.
.
The Gravity Force Spike collided heavily into the first Earth spike, instantly reducing it to dust, which faded into the air.
However, at the same time, the Gravity Force Spike was reduced by half. Striking the Earth spike had exhausted a large portion of its power.
The Gravity Force Spike continued to dash forward, crus.h.i.+ng another Earth spike before completely disappearing.
Zhentian Mo had created a total of twenty Earth spikes. Two were destroyed by the Gravity Force Strike, leaving only eighteen.
Eighteen Earth spikes struck from eighteen directions, slamming toward Qingfeng Li. There was no way Qingfeng Li could dodge them now. He"d been focused on using his Gravity Realm to create the Gravity Force Spike and had neglected to plan an escape.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom…
Eighteen Earth spikes, like eighteen spears, stabbed viciously at Qingfeng Li. They struck his back, his abdomen, and his legs, each hitting with a loud boom. Sparks appeared on the surface of Qingfeng Li"s body, as though it was two pieces of metal striking one another.
However, Qingfeng Li was completely unharmed.
"Qingfeng Li is so strong! How is he not dead? He"s not even injured!"
Seeing this, the crowd was once again overcome with shock, their eyes gleamed with disbelief.
