Chapter 1331 - 1331: Spirit of the True World
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At that moment, the battle in the sky was divided into two by the ice barrier formed by the blue light!
On the left side of the blue light, Xu Qing and the captain’s trump cards were erupting.
The captain, in the form of countless blue worms, exhaled chilling air that froze everything. With the enhancement from the blue bony hand, his power had become even more astonishing, breaking through the silver light with terrifying killing intent.
Xu Qing’s figure was like an emissary of death, wielding the Spirit Devouring Blade, carrying the wind of destruction and the intent of death, cleaving through.
On the right side of the blue light, Lan Yao was obstructed by the barrier. There were also tens of thousands of ghost centipedes controlled by the shadow which fearlessly charged toward her. Their black flames and poisonous mist blotted out the sky.
And these weren’t the greatest obstacles to Lan Yao.
What really made this woman feel fear was the bizarre blue spine.
When this spine moved in front of her, it was like a huge blue centipede. It was somewhat similar to those ghost centipedes and emitted a terrifying aura.
From afar, it was as though it was the leader of this sea of insects, the king of the ghost centipedes.
The aura within was something Lan Yao had never experienced before, and a strong sense of crisis welled up in her heart. For a moment, it was hard to tell whether she was truly trapped or unwilling to take the risk to save Feng.
!!..
At this instant, the worms formed by the captain had already frozen Feng. His bony hand smashed into the back of the youth like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter, shattering his flesh and blood. It then grabbed Feng’s heart and squeezed it with all its might.
That heart was about to explode.
At the same time, the sharpness of Xu Qing’s Spirit Devouring Blade also broke through the light of the holy land. When it touched the skin on the neck of Feng, it directly cut a deep wound, wanting to completely decapitate him.
Lan Yao’s gaze flashed. While resisting the blue spine, she quickly swept her gaze over.
He should be using his trump card now…”
At this critical moment, the instant death embraced him, Feng let out a heart-rending cry. His eyes revealed determination and his body rumbled as the five great worlds suddenly shone.
The terrifying power of the Soul Acc.u.mulation erupted again and spread out, causing the bony hand that was grabbing his heart to stop for a moment. It was as though the heart that was about to shatter had suddenly turned into profound iron.
As for Xu Qing’s dagger, it also paused for a moment and it was difficult for him to continue cutting.
Their expressions changed. Immediately after, five-colored light surged into the sky and a feather flew out from each of the five great worlds of Feng.
The feathers flew out even from the sealed great worlds, as though they weren’t restricted by the seal.
And these five feathers, each of a different color, were about three feet long. Moreover, the instant they appeared, a sense of primordial chaos rose from them and they gave off the feeling of extreme power.
They weren’t much inferior to regional treasures.
They also seemed to contain origin power, shocking flesh and blood, stirring the soul.
“Spirit of the True World!”
The captain’s pupils constricted and he decisively gave up on attacking. He quickly retreated and even gave Xu Qing a look.
Xu Qing’s heart also trembled. He didn’t hesitate at all and kept the Spirit Devouring Blade, retreating hundreds of feet.
Almost at the instant the captain recognized the feathers and the two of them retreated, the feathers’ aura soared into the sky and transformed into a five-colored storm that connected the sky and the ground.
The color of the sky changed and was filled with five colors. The clouds rumbled and scattered in all directions. The terrifying might transformed into a terrifying feeling that rose violently.
After that, these five supreme treasure feathers instantly fused together, forming a five-colored feather fan. Its might soared again, shaking the world.
As Feng raised his hand and gripped it, his gaze turned icy, but his complexion took on an abnormal flush of red, evidently indicating that wielding such a treasure was more taxing for him than merely depleting his energy.
However, right now, he couldn’t care less about this. After he grabbed the five-colored feather fan, he fiercely fanned it toward Xu Qing and the captain.
With the swing, a strong wind howled.
This wind swept through everything like fallen leaves, causing void to collapse wherever it pa.s.sed. In the area where Xu Qing and the captain were, blood sprayed out even more violently. The captain’s body collapsed into flesh and blood, only to reform again, but at the moment of formation, it couldn’t hold together and burst apart once more.
After several consecutive attempts, the body he reformed gave a sense of fragmentation and disintegration.
As for Xu Qing, he was a little better. His body was too powerful. Regardless of whether it was his divine body, the Grand Mystic Heaven Armor, or the enhancement brought by circulating the Indestructible Emperor’s Fist, they made his body abnormally tough.
Although he spat out a large mouthful of blood and was forced back, his body was intact.
However, the light of the Grand Mystic Heaven Armor dimmed a little, and intense pain spread throughout his entire body.
At the same time, the blue light barrier blocking Lan Yao, the blue spine, and the tens of thousands of ghost centipedes all swiftly retreated, eventually returning to the vicinity of Xu Qing and the captain.
After one swing, Feng’s five-colored feather fan seemed to be unable to withstand it and transformed into five feathers again. After they returned to their respective great worlds, his three illusory and two corporeal great worlds turned blurry.
They looked like their origin sources were damaged.
Feng also spat out a large mouthful of silver blood. His countenance was extremely pale and his body exuded a sense of weakness. At that moment, he stared at Xu Qing and the captain. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he spoke hoa.r.s.ely.
“You actually forced me to the extent of using my origin… I indeed underestimated you guys and paid a price for it. It’s a pity that three worlds have been sealed. Otherwise, if 1 used the power of the five worlds, 1 would have instantly killed the two of you.”
Xu Qing’s expression was cold and he didn’t say a word. He stared at Feng’s neck where the wound was healing.
This scene caused his heart to sink.
This battle allowed him to truly experience the terror and foundation of the Soul Acc.u.mulation.
Although he still had some tricks up his sleeve… the other party wasn’t alone. There was also his companion whose combat strength was clearly terrifying.
However, the captain sneered at this moment.
“Chicken wings, can you stop talking nonsense? What, is it worth showing off that you can use the power of the Soul Acc.u.mulation Five Worlds to destroy two Nihility?”
“The Demon Feather Race from the holy land who possesses the light of the holy land and has cultivated the spirit of the True World!”
The captain licked his lips and revealed the other party’s ident.i.ty.
Xu Qing remained silent. Previously, when the captain mentioned the light of the holy land, he had already guessed it, so he wasn’t too surprised at this moment.
When Feng heard this, he fell silent for a few breaths. He then cast a deep glance at the captain and said something that caused Xu Qing and Erniu’s hearts to sink.
“You’re right. This is indeed not worth showing off. It’s just that my mentality hasn’t adjusted properly. It won’t happen again.”
After experiencing two near-death situations, Feng felt like his prestige had been severely damaged. Moreover, his vital energy and origin had been depleted. At this moment, his words were incomparably calm and the gloominess in his expression dissipated.
It turned into coldness again, and his emotions became calm.
Not everyone could do such a thing. From this, one could see how terrifying Feng was.
Immediately after, Feng looked at Lan Yao and cupped his fists solemnly.
“Fellow Daoist Lan, I know that you held back earlier because you wanted to see my trump card. Now, you’ve seen it.”
“We are in a cooperative relationship right now. 1 admit that if 1 want to kill these two people, I have to remove my seal or use more origin power.”
“However, as soon as the seal is undone, I’ll immediately be rejected by the Heavenly Dao here and die. After all, the Holy Ancestor hasn’t descended yet. The Heavenly Dao doesn’t recognize us…”
“As for using more origin energy, it will also affect our future cooperation.”
So, Fellow Daoist Lan, please help!”
Feng had a sincere att.i.tude. After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and threw the blood banner he had refined from the blood sacrifices to Lan Yao.
“This item concerns our matters. I’ll leave it in Fellow Daoist Lan’s hands to safeguard it as a show of my sincerity.”
Feng was speaking openly, and not transmitting his voice. Clearly, he was very confident about what would happen next.
Hence, Xu Qing and the captain heard him clearly.
Xu Qing made up his mind. He still had divine techniques that he hadn’t used, the Emperor Sword, and the emperor’s corpse. However, the captain suddenly blinked subtly and transmitted his voice.
‘Junior Brother, don’t be rash. These two chicken wings aren’t simple. We’re not their match. Let’s escape immediately. As long as we return to the sect, we’ll be safe with Master and the supreme elder.’
With that, the captain’s body swayed as he put away the scattered things and sped into the distance. As though to increase his speed, he even spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and used a blood escape technique.
Xu Qing also didn’t hesitate. He put away the ghost centipedes and his speed soared.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them transformed into two beams of light that disappeared into the horizon.
Feng didn’t stop them from escaping. Instead, he calmly looked at Lan Yao.
Lan Yao chuckled and took the blood banner. She moved it around a few times while pondering.
She had indeed held back earlier. Just as Feng had said, her goal was to see what other trump cards he had. Although she saw the five-colored fan, she didn’t think that this was really his limit.
With her understanding of Fellow Daoist Feng, there was a high chance that he had other powerful methods.
However, it was clearly unrealistic for her to continue holding back and observe his trump cards.
‘Also, those two humans are indeed heaven’s chosen. They’re not simple… Regardless of whether the master and supreme elder they mentioned in their voice transmission are true or false, we have to take them seriously.’
‘If it’s true… it means that the forces behind them are terrifying. This is also possible. After all, not every force can nurture such heaven’s chosen, and there are even two of them.’
‘If I still let Feng fight alone, it will probably take a long time and the commotion will be too great. On one hand, it’s easy for some accidents to happen and affect the grand plan.’
‘On the other hand, it will also increase the resentment in Feng’s heart. In fact, with his suspicious personality, he will definitely have doubts. After all, me probing to this extent can still be explained and understood. However, if 1 continue…’
‘Too much is as bad as not enough.’
At the thought of this, Lan Yao nodded.
“How do I help you?”
Feng’s eyes flashed as he calmly spoke.
“It’s naturally best if Fellow Daoist Lan personally takes action. However, after seeing the methods of those two humans, you probably aren’t willing to take the risk.”
Lan Yao didn’t say anything and looked noncommittal.
Feng continued.
“Then, please lend me a drop of the Empyrean Creation Liquid. I’m going to activate the Empyrean Holy Restriction and refine these two people.”
“The Empyrean Holy Restriction?” Lan Yao’s expression changed before she smiled.
“Looks like you take these two very seriously. Although it’s a little too much to activate the Empyrean Holy Restriction, with your current strength, even with the Empyrean Creation Liquid, this restriction will at most display some of its power, but even that little power is quite terrifying and extraordinary.
“However… these two are indeed barely worth refining with this restriction.”
Lan Yao nodded and waved her hand, causing a jade bottle to fly out..
