Chapter 740: Four Heroic Law Overlords
There was no need for hesitation. Xia Fei lifted the bottle of potion he concocted the night prior and emptied its content down his throat.
This drug was called Dreadlimit!
Phantom, in his mechanical body, immediately furrowed his brows upon seeing the bottle. Dreadlimit was a concoction that he had learnt from the Sentinel G.o.ddess Sophie, which he had subsequently pa.s.sed on to Xia Fei. It was just that he had never expected it to be of use so soon.
Dreadlimit was an enhancement drug that temporarily pushed the vitality of its user to the very limit, causing all the body’s berserk factor to activate a hundred times over! It would strike great fear into the enemy’s heart as it pushed the potential one had to its maximum, causing even the very air around to boil!
The drug was only the manifestation of Dreadlimit, however; its actual effect was the ignition of life force!
*Badump*
Xia Fei’s muscles suddenly expanded. Every vein pumping blood throughout his body then bulged and became visible!
The sand whipped up a storm around him! When an immense killing intent got released, everything around would become restless!
Dreadlimit used life force as fuel to provide its user great power; no doubt Xia Fei had a tenacious life force! He had never once given up even when facing punis.h.i.+ng moments! This was the most suitable enhancement drug to him!
Xia Fei’s irises had turned blood-red. He was barely able to prevent his eyes from shooting out fire! Every bit of the fighting will in him and his savagery had all been dragged out to the front and center by the drug, which was why right at this moment, what everyone saw was his most ferocious and terrifying visage!
Like a wild beast?
No! Xia Fei was more like a demonic beast!
*Kaboom*
Before the elite warriors watching the fight could react, before Golcen Ward could even recover from his surprise, Xia Fei had unleashed a barrage of attacks!
*Zing*
Xia Fei reached Golcen Ward’s side in a single step, raising his blood-sucking dagger Blood Crystal up and cleaving straight down!
*Rumble*
An earth-shattering sound echoed. Golcen Ward relied on his law force to block the attack! He gave a low grunt from this exertion.
Another cleave!
A third chop!
It was the same motion as before that turned into hundreds of attacks in the blink of an eye!
Furball howled wildly. Even the bluegra.s.s, Peac.o.c.k Blue, was going crazy! The mechanical Phantom was, of course, even more frenzied!
Xia Fei’s mad a.s.sault had spurred their emotions. The three adjuncts all followed Xia Fei’s tempo and began a destructive battery on Golcen Ward!
Furball repeatedly charged in, letting off a clap of a nuclear-like explosive thunder every time he got near Golcen Ward!
Peac.o.c.k Blue, which was known as the most resilient weed across the universe, coiled itself in a ball as it went twisting and tearing!
Phantom’s mechanical body moved as if he were dancing, creating a flickering image as he maneuvered around deftly. It was unknown when he managed to sneak in a stab the opponent’s way!
These four had not practiced coordinating with each other, yet they had managed to achieve a flawless synchronicity at this moment! This was most likely due to how long they had all known each other and how familiar they had become with each other!
It was startling to witness such a scene on the battlefield. Even the most optimistic individual could not have imagined that Xia Fei would actually be able to suppress Law Overlord Golcen Ward!
This was like a fight between four heroic Law Overlords!
……
Aboard the wars.h.i.+p, in the lounge of the Withered Mu Clan.
Mu Fuping was nervously clutching onto her grandfather Mu Qiyun’s arm. As the shadow of the war between the Skywings and Moonwards gradually disappeared, turning into a three-versus-three deathmatch, the Withered Mu Clan did not have any qualms in joining the fight, so Mu Qiyun allowed Mu Fuping out.
For better or for worse, Mu Fuping was still unwilling to forgive her grandfather. She clearly knew that what Mu Qiyun had done was all in the interest of their clan, but she could not get over how emotionless and cold he was toward Xia Fei.
Even though she had come here today with her grandfather, Mu Fuping had not spoken a word to her grandfather. However, as the fights progressed, Mu Fuping became more and more nervous, clutching onto her grandfather in her anxiety, the issue between the pair dissipating like a cloud of smoke.
Mu Qiyun’s eyes glowed as he consoled her granddaughter, though great shock filled his mind. ‘He’s a real man, alright! To have actually succeeded in pressuring Golcen Ward and indiscriminately whaling on him, it won’t be a bad choice if such a man marries my Fuping… Did perhaps I truly make a mistake?”
…
On the other side, Superior Law Overlord Kuzan Feng nervously urged the members of the martial hall to find out more about Xia Fei’s stats now.
“What did you find?” Kuzan Feng pressed.
“A report, hallmaster. The result’s out. Xia Fei has turned into a completely different person after taking the drug! The difference in his previous and present stats is great!”
“I want the specifics!” Kuzan Feng said, fuming.
“Before he drank the concoction, Xia Fei’s speed was between eleven thousand to twelve thousand five. After taking the drug, he’s achieved a speed of sixteen thousand meters per second, and it’s still increasing! Right now, it’s close to twenty thousand!”
Kuzan Feng was stunned. “Twenty thousand? What a powerful drug! Almost twice his original speed. What about his other data?”
“His energy count has reached 116%, and his vitality has reached 197%! His neural response time is over 204% now! Hallmaster, the strength Xia Fei is demonstrating right now has already reached the level 1 Law Overlord standards! It can even be near to level 2!”
“What a powerful drug! It’s even more impressive than the Single Leaf Celestial that Ulcen Ward took in the second round!” Kuzan Feng and the other elites from the martial hall were all very shocked. As the G.o.d Race’s planted spies in White Horse Constellation, the Dragon Ascension had plenty of responsibility, and monitoring all the various major clans was a very important aspect of it.
No one knew how Ulcen Ward had turned into the wild beast earlier, but Kuzan knew.
Others did not know just how great a leap in strength Xia Fei had experienced after taking that mysterious concoction, but Kuzan did!
“To be capable of making a Law Emperor reach Law Overlord, that drug of Xia Fei is truly very potent! The Skywings truly have got a very deep foundation!” Busey had a stern expression on him. “No wonder they dared to send Xia Fei out to take on someone like Golcen Ward, who is so many levels higher. Turns out they’ve already made prior preparations regarding such a situation. Not only did they give Xia Fei the top-grade war armor Monohorn Ogre, they even gave him such a very potent combat-enhancement drug! Could it be that the Skywings obtained a miraculous drug that’s even better than the Single Leaf Celestial?!”
How would Xia Fei know that the bottle of Dreadlimit he concocted would generate such great interest in so many major players? It was a good thing that everyone believed that Dreadlimit was an original concoction of the Skywings, or else Xia Fei would be in big trouble.
As the saying went: ‘A big tree makes for good shade.’ From the moment Xia Fei became a member of the Skywing Clan, it had become unknown if the convention of him getting himself into troublesome shenanigans would also stop.
…
The vicious a.s.sault continued. At this very moment, Xia Fei was able to fight against Golcen Ward equally! This was all thanks to Dreadlimit, which had the effect of drastically increasing his cultivation to that of a Law Overlord.
It was easy to see the benefits that came with a temporary increase in level from this; be it in speed or energy, the difference between Xia Fei and Golcen Ward had almost been completely narrowed!
This was no longer a fight between a Law Emperor and a Law Overlord but a fight between Law Overlord Xia Fei and Law Overlord Golcen Ward, instead!
The power of Law Integration was great; the Blood Crystal had no way of breaking Golcen Ward’s defenses, which was why Xia Fei had changed to using the Law of Primal Chaos!
*Boom!*
Wind whipped with each punch! The power from the Law of s.p.a.ce was unbelievably insane, and this heaven-defying Law Power was magnified several fold after Xia Fei’s instant rise in cultivation!
Golcen Ward was almost on the verge of collapse. Never in his wildest dream did he consider that he would be oppressed by someone as insignificant as Xia Fei!
Though he knew that Xia Fei had several treasures on him, Golcen Ward had never once regarded him as a worthy opponent. After all, Furball and Peac.o.c.k Blue were still young and were incapable of doing any substantial damage to him who had a level 5 Law Overlord cultivation.
Unfortunately, he had truly underestimated Xia Fei and the Law of Primal Chaos’ horror!
Every single punch Xia Fei landed on Golcen Ward caused him to feel a burning sensation. Law Integration provided him with a nearly invulnerable body, so the fact that Xia Fei’s attacks could ultimately pierce through his defenses simply left him feeling dumbfounded!
“Hahahaha! Keep at it, Xia Fei! Golcen Ward looks like he’s about to reach his limit! Killing a level 5 Law Overlord with a Law Emperor cultivation, you’ll be the first one in all the history of mankind to achieve such a feat!” The old demon lord felt extremely excited as he reveled in the violence.
The increase in level, as well as all the powerful helpers of his, made it seem like Xia Fei had received divine aid! Golcen Ward appeared to be suffering more and more as time went on, and in this David-versus-Goliath fight, it was the Goliath who was gradually losing the upper hand!
“Arghhh!”
Xia Fei’s brain was in chaos at the moment, so he was actually not listening to a word of Oro! Dreadlimit was a drug that burned life force in exchange for temporarily increasing one’s combat might, and all these severe and life-threatening side effects were being borne solely by Xia Fei even as he performed well beyond the standard!
“A miracle! This is definitely a miracle! Could Xia Fei really manage to kill Golcen Ward?!” wailed a Law Emperor from the Nine Fans Clan out in the viewing gallery as he scratched his head vigorously.
Everyone refused to accept that every punch of Xia Fei now had the ability to destroy the Law Integration, which Golcen Ward was very proud of!
If even Kuzan would have a hard time breaking such a high tier Law Integration, what more of a puny being like Xia Fei?
It was evident to all that Xia Fei did not possess Law Integration, so how had he managed to penetrate Golcen Ward’s defenses?
Aside from the shock, suspicion lingered in all these spectators’ hearts.
Xia Fei was like a nail that refused to be flattened, not at all relenting once he had taken the initiative. He used simplistic moves again and again and delivered blow after blow, attempting to whittle away Golcen Ward’s defenses bit by bit.
Suddenly—
An unexpected scene unfolded!
A figure appeared in the inky-black sea of stars like a G.o.d descending upon the mortal realm. Standing in s.p.a.ce, this new arrival coldly observed the brutal fight happening on the planet below.
This person had a long and wispy white goatee and bronze skin that seemed to have been lathered in oil. He was also very tall—taller than an entire planet, in fact! Even the biggest star out there would look no bigger than his fist when compared.
A mysterious and celestial aura emanated from him, giving the sense that he could bring about great devastation on anything in an instant with a casual wave of his hand! It was such a crus.h.i.+ng aura that made it hard for anyone to breathe!
This elderly figure moved with a smile on his face, his gargantuan form shrinking slightly with each step he took. Soon, he stepped onto the surface of the planet from the empty expanse of the cosmos, and when his two feet touched the ground, he was already about the size of an average human.
A holy halo circled around his body, making him truly resemble a G.o.d who had set his foot on the mortal realm!
“Oh… Oh, my G.o.d!” Mu Qiyun croaked in a hoa.r.s.e voice as he witnessed this scene, his two eyes nearly popping out of their sockets!
*Crumple*
Without another word, Mu Qiyun grabbed Mu Fuping and got her to join him in kneeling on the ground with their heads lowered, a chilled expression on his face.
“Don’t ask why! This is an expert from above!” Mu Qiyun covered his granddaughter’s mouth and anxiously said.
Mu Fuping’s eyes widened. From above? The G.o.d Race?!
It was not only Mu Qiyun; after a while, all the present Law Overlords and Law Emperors from White Horse Constellation prostrated themselves on the ground. Even the rebellious Skywings were no exception! This was evidence of just how impressive this elderly figure was!
The elderly figure flicked his finger softly. From afar, an irresistible force traveled through the air, separating Xia Fei from Golcen Ward. It was as if an invisible and formless wall had appeared from out of nowhere, impossible for anyone to pa.s.s through.
The elderly figure wrinkled his forehead as he coughed twice, gravely saying, “Stop fighting. Consider this a draw.”
It was as if the voice had come down on them from the heavens, husky and low. Anyone in the entire s.p.a.ce could hear his voice clearly.
It was hard to imagine how this was possible. If he was not a G.o.d, then how else did he produce such a soundwave, which could travel through a vast and distant range, with mere speech?
Suddenly, the G.o.d-like elder turned his head around and glanced at Xia Fei with some dissatisfaction. Everyone saw that Xia Fei was looking straight at this elderly figure with bloodshot eyes full of rage and impatience!
“What are you trying to do, kid?” asked the G.o.d-like elder in a low voice, his eyebrows forming a straight line.
His voice gave off this immense majesty that shook countless of experts present except for Xia Fei.
“Anyone who gets in my way shall die!”
Saying this, Xia Fei very unreasonably thrust a fist toward this unparalleled expert who had come down from the G.o.d Race above.
“*Cough*!”
Having witnessed this hair-raising scene, Law Overlord Mu Qiyun’s two eyes rolled over and he collapsed to the ground…
