Chapter 617: A decisive battle!
In his life, Xia Fei had done many insane things and made many crazy decisions. Otherwise, he would have never been called a lunatic by others.
There were many lunatics in the universe, but Xia Fei was different from the others. There was nothing wrong with his head, and he was actually rather logical, capable of a.n.a.lyzing and judging things. His madness existed in his vigorous counterattack in dire straits and in that att.i.tude which disdained all rules and conventions.
Everyone feared death, but true warriors dared to gamble with their lives in desperate times. The result was not important. What was important was an att.i.tude that pursued victory—a desire to live and tenaciously struggle for survival.
Even when one’s body had no more energy and their mind and body had both reached their limits…
Xia Fei still had quite a few Origin Crystals in his spatial ring, but he did not have the time to absorb them. In the middle of a fierce battle, was there anyone who would just stand by and watch their foe fight and recover energy at the same time?
However, there was still a multicolored ball of energy in his seventh brain region. This was the powerful energy absorbed through level 5 Law Emperor Cruel Eagle, a warrior who practiced the Law of Matter.
Cruel Eagle had lived for more than a hundred years. Part of his acc.u.mulated energy had gone to the Blood Crystal while the other part had been given to Xia Fei. This method of seizing energy was incredibly cruel. A lifetime of cultivation had been stolen by Xia Fei through little effort on his part. If Cruel Eagle’s spirit were still around, he would probably vomit blood out of sheer anger.
Two Great Law Emperors attacked Xia Fei from above, while a Law Overlord waited down below.
There was no choice! Xia Fei could only break out through the sky!
Breaking out required energy—enough energy to contend against two Great Law Emperors!
The Law Realm was the realm of energy. Without energy, it was hard to advance even an inch. The energy ball in Xia Fei’s seventh brain region was everything he had. He had no other energy available for him to use.
There was no other option. Even though this energy was volatile and dangerous, Xia Fei had to use it!
He clenched his teeth, and the rainbow ball of energy in his brain shattered!
This was an extremely insane decision he had made. This energy did not belong to Xia Fei but had originally been Cruel Eagle’s. Thus, Xia Fei was not confident in his ability to control this energy. As for using his enemy’s energy to attack his enemies, it was truly a fantastical idea!
However, Xia Fei firmly believed that nothing in the universe was impossible. Success or failure, he needed to at least try first!
“No,” Phantom yelled in panic, “that energy isn’t yours! It’s too violent! It will destroy your seventh brain region!”
Xia Fei was deaf to Phantom’s words at this point, though, for he had already gone completely mad!
There was nothing in his mind except the thought of battle!
*Whoos.h.!.+*
Surging energy, which had once belonged to Cruel Eagle, instantly filled his seventh brain region, and it was not just his brain region; Xia Fei’s body rapidly swelled like an inflating balloon!
Immense energy unstoppably swept out!
Excess would result in overflow. If he could not swiftly consume this external energy, Xia Fei would face disaster! If too much energy filled his body, he would explode!
“Eh!”
The two Great Law Emperors in the sky were both aghast. As experts, they could easily tell that Xia Fei was radiating with an energy different from normal.
The young man shooting toward them was like a devil with bared fangs—no! It was more like a bomb with an unstable fuse! Even his opponents could sense how dangerous he was!
If this much energy exploded, another calamity on par with Green Dawn’s self-detonation would occur!
His eyes were resolved! Streaked with blood!
Xia Fei was going all out!
“White Tiger Howls at the Moon!”
“Azure Peak Slas.h.!.+”
The two Great Law Emperors did not dare to be careless, both unleas.h.i.+ng their strongest techniques!
The energy inside Xia Fei was so unstable that they feared that Xia Fei would suddenly explode; in which case, they would inevitably be caught in the explosion.
On one end was a rapid condensation of the Law of s.p.a.ce; on the other end was a fissure created with the Law of s.p.a.ce!
White Tiger Howls at the Moon compressed s.p.a.ce to an extreme degree, manifesting as a giant fanged beast lunging at the opponent.
In truth, the monster, which manifested in the air, did not look like a white tiger at all. With its giant maw, it looked more like a monstrous toad, as a mouth several hundred meters in diameter lunged at Xia Fei. Once one was caught in the mouth, the compression would begin. Warriors, whose ranks were too low, would be incapable of fighting back and would be instantly crushed into paste!
Azure Peak Slash was a giant spatial fissure. Unlike the savage scars normally created by such techniques, this was an extremely neat tear, like a crescent moon blade descending from the heavens. As that azure wave of light swept across the starry sky, it seemed on the verge of severing the river of stars!
Two Great Law Emperors! Two apex techniques of shocking might!
On the left was a behemoth, and on the right was a sharp and vicious blade!
The developments in the sky left everyone feeling shocked. While fighting off the golden skeletons, Yu Hua shot a glance in the sky, and even that masked Law Overlord silently raised his head.
They were not shocked at the combined techniques of the two Great Law Emperors but rather at Xia Fei!
While these were high-tier techniques, it was not as if both were completely unseen, so the mysterious Law Overlord was unmoved by them.
However, no one had ever seen Xia Fei’s suicidal method of attack before, and no one could tell how Xia Fei had suddenly unleashed such a ma.s.sive amount of unstable energy, turning himself into a ma.s.sive bomb that could explode at any moment. Madness could not explain this conduct. Did Xia Fei truly not want to live anymore?
Xia Fei’s lips curved upward. He was actually smiling!
Holy Beast Shatterstar was also smiling, as was Lionheart King Oro in the ring!
“Crazy enough!” Oro’s words were enough to describe the scene. Using an enemy’s energy to charge fearlessly at the enemy? Oro could not find a better word to describe this than crazy.
*Awoooo!*
Furball howled. After spending too long with Xia Fei, this little fellow had also gone insane. Seeing Xia Fei charge heedlessly into the fray, Furball felt no fear but only excitement!
“Falling Leaves of Autumn’s Demise!”
Xia Fei roared as he unleashed his pure Law of Primal Chaos martial technique!
Xia Fei placed a hand above him, and a giant maple leaf instantly took form, floating in the nothingness like a leaf in the autumn wind.
As Xia Fei was using Cruel Eagle’s energy and not his own, this attack appeared to be extremely unstable!
The giant maple leaf grew larger. Xia Fei could not let Cruel Eagle’s energy stay in his body, for it was too violent and abundant. Xia Fei had to release all of it!
Although Blood Crystal had only given Xia Fei a small part of Cruel Eagle’s lifetime of energy, this was already a shocking amount of energy!
After more than a hundred years of refining, this energy was incredibly pure, and it was faintly infused with the aura of the Law of Matter user.
‘What law is this?!’ the masked Law Overlord on the ground asked himself.
As an expert, he instantly sensed the abnormal aura of the Law of Primal Chaos. This energy, which could subvert and disrupt all things, was so wild and unruly that it instantly stimulated his desire to fight!
If he were not so busy suppressing the expansion of the dark s.p.a.ce, the mysterious Law Overlord would really go up to fight with Xia Fei!
The st.u.r.diness of the Law of Matter, the sharpness of the Law of s.p.a.ce, and the ability to flip over the universe via the Law of Primal Chaos!
The maple leaf swept forward, meeting the attacks of the two Great Law Emperors head on!
*Rumble!*
The giant maw of the White Tigers Howls at the Moon led the way, its toothed mouth biting down and swallowing Xia Fei!
The Law Overlord frowned. Xia Fei had been so easily swallowed, and the condensation of s.p.a.ce law energy would activate soon, the extreme spatial compression turning Xia Fei into a meat pancake.
This was not the result he had predicted. Xia Fei had released such a grandiose attack and had seemed determined to take down his enemies with him, but he had been swallowed up with little fanfare. Truly, this was loud thunder followed by a tiny drizzle of rain.
The Law Overlord shrugged, believing that he had either overestimated Xia Fei or that his eyes were going bad. Meanwhile, he continued to close the void tear.
Suddenly!
A ma.s.sive explosion came from the sky! It was like ten thousand lightning bolts had flashed all at once!
The sound was vast and grandiose!
*Rumble!*
Before s.p.a.ce could compress, Xia Fei had already broken out of the spatial compression!
The maple leaf was soft and supple, but it had obliterated the Law of s.p.a.ce condensation technique used by the Great Law Emperor!
That toad-like monster had its belly punched through. Xia Fei had gone in through its mouth and blasted his way out through its stomach!
“Heavens! What power is that?!”
All the warriors who saw this sight could not help but ask themselves if they could shatter the full-strength attack of a Law Emperor and tear open a condensed s.p.a.ce! Xia Fei seemed to have the help of the G.o.ds!
This was not even the most shocking thing, for they soon bore witness to an even more unbelievable sight!
As Azure Peak Slash descended like a divine blade, with its azure light blotting out half the sky, Xia Fei’s maple leaf soared upward to meet it!
If things went as expected, the maple leaf would be no match for the blade, and the Azure Peak Slash would slice apart the maple leaf and then strike Xia Fei.
Alas, even now, they still did not understand that Falling Leaves of Autumn’s Demise was not the usual culmination of Law force but rather something powered by the Law of Primal Chaos, which could reverse all!
It could make black into white! Right into wrong!
The Law of Primal Chaos was this sort of unreasonable existence. The greatest law in the universe was that there were no laws, and the most absurd law in the universe was this law that could subvert the laws of others!
*Bang!*
The azure blade struck Xia Fei’s leaf-like bolt of lightning!
A blinding explosion of light! There was no sound, the world falling silent!
And then something absurd happened! The azure spatial fissure was bounced back by the maple leaf!
“It was turned around!” Yu Hua roared, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets!
The mysterious masked Law Overlord also could not help but swallow.
As for the two Law Emperors in the air, their eyes went wide in disbelief and confusion! Shattering a condensed Law of s.p.a.ce and reversing the spatial fissure… What sort of power was this?!
Xia Fei was an unremarkable and minor character, so how could he possess such absurd strength?
*Whoosh~*
The azure blade flew back the way it had come, flying past the two Law Emperors and directly colliding with the Sky Curtain!
*Rumble!*
Another shudder! The Sky Curtain held on and did not shatter!
Xia Fei had already reached the two Law Emperors. The white maple leaf swept past them like a giant and crashed into the Sky Curtain!
*Rumble!*
This was a considerable blow!
The Sky Curtain, which could stop the attacks of Law Emperors, shattered!
Xia Fei’s maple leaf also broke apart, its remains drifting down from the sky like giant snowflakes!
*Whoosh~*
Xia Fei charged out of the seal and continued to soar upward!
Farther up was the outer sh.e.l.l of the wars.h.i.+p. The Yu family was built on a giant wars.h.i.+p and was enclosed with a giant transparent outer sh.e.l.l.
Xia Fei’s mind was somewhat fuzzy, so he did not notice that he was about to crash into the outer sh.e.l.l and into s.p.a.ce.
In this moment of crisis, Furball spat out a Heaven Net, which used up the last bit of his energy!
*Boom!*
…
In the eternal night of s.p.a.ce, a small Demon Race s.h.i.+p rapidly moved. It covered ten thousand lightyears a minute!
After inputting some coordinates, Xia Fei collapsed onto the deck in exhaustion.
“Where do these coordinates go?” Xia Fei weakly said.
“The Demon Race,” Oro sternly replied.
