Chapter 1480: The Elder in Black
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Qingfeng Li deliberately let the void rats swarm him so that the enemy would reveal themselves.
Soon he found an elder in black among the Western self-cultivators.
That elder was gesturing with strange handsigns and chanting a strange spell.
Qingfeng Li frowned. He was convinced that these void rats attacking him were under the control of this elder in black.
Qingfeng Li sneered and rushed forward. He waved the Sky G.o.d’s Spear and killed the void rats along his way, then turned himself into a lightning bolt and shot out in front of the elder in black instantly.
The elder was pinching his palm and chanting spells to control those void rats to attack Qingfeng Li. He didn’t expect to be detected and was quite shocked.
But he calmed down in no time and transformed his palms into two metal b.a.l.l.s, which he smashed at Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li looked over and found two football-sized black metal b.a.l.l.s, which were made from meteorite ore.
These were intermediate-level meteorite ore, which was rare, at least on low-tier planets like Earth. The meteorites on Earth were mostly low-tier ones, which were pretty different from the intermediate ones.
Qingfeng Li pierced the Sky G.o.d’s Spear forward and clashed against the black iron b.a.l.l.s, generating sparks and screeching sounds.
“Wow, the black b.a.l.l.s can withstand an attack from my Sky G.o.d’s Spear.” Qingfeng Li was quite surprised.
But he figured out the reason the next moment. The Sky G.o.d’s Spear was powerful mainly because of the Sky G.o.d’s Mark inside.
However, Qingfeng Li had removed it with the help of the souls of the Fire Dragon and Dark Night Emperor.
In other words, the Sky G.o.d’s Spear had become a normal weapon of the Ninth Level of the Spirit Emperor Realm, which was the same level of the black metal b.a.l.l.s that the elder in black was using.
Qingfeng Li kept swiping and stabbing the spear, colliding it against the meteorite b.a.l.l.s and creating earsplitting sounds. He was astonished when he realized the iron b.a.l.l.s were unbreakable no matter what he did.
The elder in black laughed, “Qingfeng Li, my iron b.a.l.l.s were made of intermediate level meteorites from alien planets. The Sky G.o.d’s Spear can’t break them without the Sky G.o.d’s Mark.”
Qingfeng became sullen and put the spear in his interspatial ring. He needed to use another method if the spear didn’t work.
Qingfeng Li channeled the Mortal Purgatory Body, s.h.i.+ning golden and black lights all over his body. The golden and black lights kept rotating and surrounded his body, generating a mist over him.
Qingfeng Li performed ‘Sixth Fist – Shattering the Void’, the sixth technique of the Strangle h.e.l.l Fist. It shattered a big hole in s.p.a.ce and smashed at the iron b.a.l.l.s with enormous power, shaking the entire sky and earth.
The elder in black was startled seeing Qingfeng Li slam his fists against the iron b.a.l.l.s.
He channeled his vital essence and made the iron b.a.l.l.s twice as big and twice as strong. The iron b.a.l.l.s punched two big holes in the air each time they struck out, and then smashed at Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li was not willing to yield and countered with the Strangle h.e.l.l Fist. But he figured he couldn’t break the iron b.a.l.l.s with his fists.
Suddenly he had an inspiration. He decided to use the Golden Flames.
Upon this idea, Qingfeng Li reached out his right index and middle fingers, with a flickering flame on them. The golden flame was swaying in the air like dancing b.u.t.terflies.
“Go burn down those two iron b.a.l.l.s.” Qingfeng Li pointed his right index finger forward; the Golden Flames turned into a golden ma.s.s and instantly enshrouded the black iron b.a.l.l.s.
The black iron b.a.l.l.s started to melt in the Golden Flames, finally turning into liquid and vanis.h.i.+ng.
“What’s in Qingfeng Li’s hand? How can the flame be so powerful that it can melt down intermediate-level meteorites?”
“Don’t you see? That is the Golden Flame, which was the Golden Saint’s during the ancient era.”
“Golden Saint? I’ve heard this name. He once killed the Western Sky G.o.d during the ancient era.”
Over ten thousand Western self-cultivators were discussing in surprise.
They certainly knew the strength of the elder in black. He was one of eight great guardians of the western self-cultivation world, with power no less than the Sky G.o.d’s Emissary.
But his most important weapons were melted down easily by Qingfeng Li.
“Old man, your weapons were too weak.” Qingfeng Li sneered with contempt.
Then he kept controlling the Golden Flame. It turned into a golden flash, and rushed onto the elder in black instantly, igniting his clothes and body.
The Golden Flame was extremely hot. It spread from the elder’s fingernails along his arm toward his whole body and was about to burn him into ashes.
The elder in black screamed with a pale look. He made a prompt decision and cut off his entire left arm with a dagger, with blood spurting out everywhere.
He knew if he didn’t do this, he would have been completely engulfed by the Golden Flames.
It was a smart move to give up a rook to save the king.
But he became terrified again the next moment, with an extreme premonition of danger.
Qingfeng Li got in front of him in no time, reaching out the right hand and clamping his neck.
“Let me go.” The elder in black could hardly speak or even breathe with his throat grasped by Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li sneered, “Let you off? Do you think it’s possible after you attacked me with void rats? You’re doomed.”
