Chapter 1094 Trouble may come late, but it comes nevertheless.
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Sun Xiaojin and Holy Beast Flamechain Tail had produced a miraculous chemical reaction. First and foremost was their self-protection. That layer of black flames was scorching hot and was even mixed with violent
Soul Power, which made long-distance attacks ineffective.
Moreover, there appeared to be some sort of inexplicable energy transference going on between them. Sun Xiaojin, who should be on his last leg, was suddenly bursting with power, his every move able to exert
enormous pressure on Xia Fei.
*Rumble!*
The Flamechain Tail’s fifteen-meter-long tail had become a defensive screen for Sun Xiaojin, as if he had grown eyes on the back of his head. No matter what angle Xia Fei attacked from, the Flamechain Tail could
accurately predict his trajectory and block his high-speed attack.
The Flamechain Tail’s agility and speed had managed to largely compensate for Sun Xiaojin’s lack of speed, and the battle grew more and more intense.
“Furball!”
Xia Fei roared as he retreated hastily. Furball and Little Goldie followed, pulling back a whole five kilometers!
Accelerating at full speed!
Accelerating in a curve, Xia Fei became like light as he attacked!
Energy was the foundation of all defense and offense. Xia Fei had realized that the quickest and most effective way of dealing with Sun Xiaojin was to unleash an even greater power! It should be so great Sun Xiaojin and
the Flamechain Tail would be unable to handle it!
*Whoos.h.!.+*
The mysterious Soul Mark in his seventh brain region began to turn rapidly.
The mystical Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark helped Xia Fei gain Spirit Energy, and it also let him erupt with double his usual combat power!
Xia Fei had created distance precisely to exploit fully his speed advantage so that he could sprint and accelerate! Full speed! Eruption!
This was a freakish speed! In a flash, Xia Fei had reached his maximum speed of sixteen million meters per second!
It was impossible to describe the explosive strength endowed by this speed. Even the legendary armor, Celestial Sole Warning, slightly vibrated; it was a sign of just how terrifying Xia Fei’s speed was!
*Bang!*
Xia Fei gave Furball a solid push, sending him flying out.
A powerful energy had enclosed Furball in a protective layer, turning him into a superspeed cannonball that slammed into Sun Xiaojin’s chest!
Sun Xiaojin’s eyes flew open, while the Flamechain Tail bristled in fear!
At this speed, the collision would be akin to an asteroid striking Earth!
Sun Xiaojin and his Holy Beast were not sure if they could block such a frenzied strike; alas, it was moving too fast for Sun Xiaojin to dodge even if he wanted to. In a flash, Furball had arrived!
*Whoosh~*
The enemy Holy Beast’s famous tail thrust out, its sharp end pointed right at Furball!
*Pal*
This soft and fast tail instantly became as tough as steel; the Flamechain Tail tried to force back Furball with this method. After all, this was a tough spear, and if Furball wanted to get closer, he would have to push his
body onto the speartip.
“Roar!”
Furball acted like he could not see the sharp tail, furiously roaring as he sought to complete his mission!
Trying to force Furball to back off? No chance! Furball knew nothing about retreating. To kill was his only mission and objective!
Time seemed to stop, followed by the thunderous conclusion!
*Rumble!*
Superspeed added to Furball’s absurd energy reserve had created an earth-shattering result!
The Flamechain Tail’s renowned tail shattered!
It had broken like gla.s.s, letting out black flames as it broke, piece by piece!
“Roar!”
The Flamechain Tail let out a heart-rending roar, and with this scream that bemoaned its fate, Flamechain Tail slammed into Sun Xiaojin!
*Rumble!*
There was an explosion of light that made it impossible to see what was happening, but everyone could hear this universe-tearing noise. There was no doubt about the destructive power of this impact!
As the ma.s.sive soundwave traveled, a second figure arrived!
This was Xia Fei, traveling at a similarly absurd speed and with a similarly enormous impact; his Spirit Energy converged as he swung the White Dragon’s Screech!
*Rumble!*
One explosion became a chain as Sun Xiaojin’s long soul weapon, the chain blade, shattered!
The blade kept going, cutting into Sun Xiaojin’s body!
Starting from the head, it cleaved through this intermediate Soul Hunter with five Soul Marks as well as his Holy Beast!
It still was not over with that!
The fiendish blade, Nirvana, flashed a myriad of colors as it stabbed into Sun Xiaojin’s body from an angle, sucking out his energy and soul.
“Not good!”
In the indescribable chaos, Xia Fei sensed a hint of turmoil.
Sun Xiaojin and his Holy Beast were both burning up their life force. Xia Fei’s vicious attack had not just taken their lives but had also triggered an enormous energy collapse!
Burning life force was releasing the maximum amount of energy in one’s body, and it was limited by the amount of energy the user could endure. However, now that Xia Fei had sliced apart the man and his Holy Beast,
this energy had no more restraint, and it was all unleashed in a single instant!
*Rumble!*
This was the energy of a level 5 Founder and a Holy Beast!
It was simply too terrifying, the black energy wave spreading out like a nuclear bomb.
Sound? There was no sound! This formidable energy had drowned out all sound!
*Whew!*
Xia Fei’s body uncontrollably flew backward, carried along by the tsunami of energy!
“AAAAAAAAH~”
It was Radix who made this scream, and only Xia Fei could hear it. At this moment, Radix was desperately absorbing energy with Nirvana. After all, if the shockwave was reduced, Xia Fei would sustain lighter injuries.
In the heart of the energy explosion, Nirvana was like a king! It greedily absorbed the surrounding energy!
However, this speed was not fast enough. After, this was the detonated energy of two super-experts. The instantaneous release of energy had far exceeded Nirvana’s limits, the pitch-black blade already turning red,
giving off thick fume!
Even worse was the battlefield only being twenty kilometers away from the city. In less than a second, the energy shockwave would turn the city upside down! Even the Aurora Wist Clan would not be spared!
There were rules to everything, and while Xia Fei did not intend to harm the Aurora Clan, Chaos Society would be unable to just sit back and do nothing. After all, this elite social group was the law enforcer of the Alpha
Universe, and it could not allow any expert to run around and do as they pleased.
Things were dire. In a flash, the trees at the edge of the city had been turned to dust, and the roofs of homes were already starting to disintegrate.
At this moment, a giant net suddenly emerged from the ground!
Fuchen had finally taken action!
Fuchen had originally laid down a soul array to take Aquamarine’s life, but with the city in danger, he had no other choice but to act!
In this way, everyone would know that Xia Fei had an ally in the shadows—an absurdly powerful ally!
The death of a Holy Beast and level 5 Founder was not something one could see every day, and this was undoubtedly a rare spectacle. In the air, Xia Fei was completely engulfed in this immense energy. Fortunately, he
had the protection of a top-cla.s.s suit of armor, or else this energy would have torn him apart.
“This is too much!” Xia Fei was awed. He had never expected for the explosion to be this powerful.
The ma.s.sive energy storm had pa.s.sed, and when Xia Fei saw the surroundings again, he thought that this explosion was excessively powerful. As for the civilians in the city, they were all staring up in the night sky.
This explosion had almost obliterated the atmosphere, and a giant vacuum had appeared over the city, revealing the stars in the middle of the day!
*Thump!*
Xia Fei was thrown very far by the energy shockwave. He was no longer able to see the city, falling on a mountain densely covered in silver-leafed trees.
Standing up, Xia Fei moved his body around and found that he ached all over. This was with the protection of Celestial Sole Warning. It was difficult to imagine what would have happened to him if he had been wearing
an ordinary suit of armor.
*Whoosh whoos.h.!.+*
Little Goldie, Furball, and the fiendish blade Nirvana under Radix’s control came over. The explosion had also been quite tough on them, and they had used all their power just to dodge it. They stopped next to Xia Fei
and panted for breath.
“Are all of you okay?” Xia Fei shook his head. “I didn’t expect it, either, for those two to explode and with that much force!”
Neither Furball nor Little Goldie said anything, only shaking their heads and sighing. As for Radix, he grumbled, “That was a close shave! Good thing I was absorbing energy while falling back, for it took away more than.
half of the impact, or else the Nirvana might’ve broken apart! Xia Fei, you were too careless. If Fuchen hadn’t made his move, the entire city would’ve been flattened.”
Radix was a loyal guard of the Aurora Clan, and his heart had leaped to his throat when he saw the city almost about to be engulfed by the explosion.
Xia Fei shrugged, extracted a wrinkled cigarette, and placed it in his mouth. Lighting the stick, he took two deep drags.
“They’re a Holy Beast and a level 5 Founder, so the two held formidable Soul Power,” said Xia Fei frankly, not hiding his surprise at the result.
“As long as you understand for next time… This isn’t the Law Realm, where the number of Founders is limited. There’ll often be battles with Founders here. Also, that Holy Beast Flamechain Tail was at least level 7, an
even more savage existence than Furball. By cleaving those two top-cla.s.s war G.o.ds in half, it’s only natural for a terrifying explosion to ensue,” Radix said grimly.
Since Xia Fei was alright and the Aurora Clan was alright, Radix felt much better. Regardless, the enemies were dead, and Xia Fei had a moment of peace.
However, this peace was temporary. After all, Sun Xiaojin had been a patrolling inspector of Chaos Society, and Chaos Society would come looking for an explanation eventually.
Xia Fei could never escape trouble. While trouble might come late, it would come nevertheless. Xia Fei remained quiet for quite a long while; he had actually expected this to happen.
The soul array meant for Aquamarine being exposed too soon and the death of a patrolling inspector of Chaos Society at Xia Fei’s hands were all problems, but this was only the corner of the iceberg. This battle was
only the prelude to even greater trouble!
Suddenly furrowing his brows, he silently dropped the wrinkly cigarette from his mouth and stood up. He looked toward the city.
“Heh! Pretty sharp! You noticed that I arrived.”
It was a female voice, cold and lacking in human emotion.
“Aquamarine?” Xia Fei silently clenched his fists as he growled.
At this moment, Xia Fei was far away from the soul array Fuchen had laid down..
