Chapter 794: Destroying the trap!
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The pa.s.sage had been closed, and countless bizarrely shaped hidden weapons flew out from the walls!
Xia Fei was wearing the top-cla.s.s armor Monohorn Ogre, so these concealed weapons could not deal him any fatal damage, but they were terrifyingly infused with law force, the rending power of the Law of Matter!
The Law of Matter could make matter disintegrate, and these weapons had been modified by exactly this kind of power!
“Crafty Approach!”
Xia Fei did not stop, moving faster and faster!
The Crafty Approach helped him avoid the a.s.sault of the numerous concealed weapons and continue forward!
“Xia Fei, these are probably the work of a high-rank artificer!” Oro sternly said.
Xia Fei said nothing. He had already realized that there was something strange about this island.
Whether it was the suits of armor without owners on the outside or these hidden weapons infused with law force inside the pa.s.sage, these all made people think about artificers, this job that involved infusing law force into armor and weapons.
There was no doubt that Xia Fei had intruded in a meticulous trap set up by an artificer who possessed a very, very high cultivation! Using his own profound cultivation, he had made this island into a giant net!
Though it was a formidable net, Xia Fei’s high speed was invincible!
The hidden weapons needed some time after activation to attack, and this was enough time for Xia Fei to escape with his high speed!
*Whoosh~*
Two hundred forty thousand meters per second!
Xia Fei advanced at maximum speed through the narrow pa.s.sage! No obstacle could stop his progress, his hypersensitive nervous system helping him react as soon as possible. This swift reaction was a warrior’s talent. He could rely entirely on instinct, not on his brain to think!
Faster! Faster!
Xia Fei’s brows furrowed. The attacks behind him were truly terrifying. If he were not a high speed warrior, he would already have been caught by all these hidden weapons and been unable to get out!
‘What a vicious attack! What a mysterious island!’ Xia Fei commented to himself.
Even with his super speed, he was unable to reach the end of this pa.s.sage instantly!
It must be understood that this was two hundred forty thousand meters per second! Xia Fei had traveled a hundred kilometers in the blink of an eye!
The length of this pa.s.sage was alarming, and Xia Fei wondered if he was not charging to the other side of the planet!
Even worse was that this pa.s.sage had countless splits and convergence, as if this place was a maze that covered the entire planet, of which the sole purpose was to imprison high-speed warriors!
‘I can’t stop!’ Xia Fei once more urged himself.
The moment his speed dropped, the traps and hidden weapons would engulf him!
There was no fastest, only faster!
Xia Fei expressed the very essence of speed!
It was no wonder Huo Yutong had wanted Xia Fei to invade this island; it was because of his super speed! Any other warrior would have been exterminated long ago!
The pa.s.sage went on and on, with seemingly no end, as did the traps!
Xia Fei had no idea where he even was. He just kept charging forward!
*Whoos.h.!.+*
The traps were not even the worst part. After taking a turn into a pa.s.sage, Xia Fei found a vast a.s.sortment of enemies in front of him!
They were less than one meter tall, covered in metallic fur; cold air exuded from their fanged mouths!
A pack of metal wolves was blocking his path!
“Awoooo!”
Upon noticing Xia Fei, these thousands of metal wolves lunged!
A frenzied dance of demons!
Peac.o.c.k Blue immediately s.h.i.+elded Xia Fei’s front, rapidly revolving like a saw, the numerous energy flowers leaving behind afterimages in the air because of the fast revolutions!
*Rumble!*
Xia Fei charged into the metal wolves as he had a powered mystical armament around his arm!
“It’s really an artificer! These metal wolves have been infused with law force! That’s how they have their own consciousness and know how to attack!” Oro gravely said.
The situation was dire. These wolves were not here to kill Xia Fei but rather to slow him down!
The moment Xia Fei’s speed dropped, the innumerable hidden weapons and countless moving suits of armor would sweep over Xia Fei.
“Screw off!” Xia Fei shouted.
*Rumble!*
The power of a high-speed impact was incredible! Peac.o.c.k Blue sent all these moving pieces of metal flying!
*Bang!*
One of the metal wolves was instantly blasted apart! Xia Fei glanced over and saw that there was nothing inside. This was just a suit of armor in the shape of a wolf!
These fellows were similar to robots. They both had metal bodies, but robots could move because of the mechanical parts inside them and their AI systems, whereas these wolves moved because of law force!
*Rumble!*
Tens of thousands of wolves were instantly wiped out, turned into piles of useless sc.r.a.p metal!
If they wanted to use these things to slow Xia Fei down, they were barking up at the wrong tree!
There was still no end to the pa.s.sage, and Xia Fei was starting to get alarmed. He had no idea where these complicated and intersecting pa.s.sages would ultimately lead him.
As he made another turn, the wolves were replaced by giant warriors more than five meters tall!
Their black armor was devoid of s.h.i.+ne. It was clear that they had been here for many years.
They had giant swords taller than Xia Fei. Four thousand of these warriors acted in unison, raising their swords and preparing to swing them down!
*Beng!*
*Beng!*
The moment Xia Fei got close to them, the warriors swung their giant swords! The concrete floor blasted apart as if it had been bombed!
“Saber form!
“Slice through the waist!
“You have giant swords! I have a giant saber!”
Xia Fei roared, the Dragonscale Hectoslasher’s merged form flying out!
The Dragonscale Hectoslasher’s merged form was a giant saber more than two meters long!
Holding this saber behind him, Xia Fei moved through the giant warriors like a b.u.t.terfly navigating through a field of flowers!
*Rumble!*
All the warriors he pa.s.sed were instantly cut in two! The Dragonscale Hectoslasher cleaved them at the waist!
*Whoos.h.!.+* *Cras.h.!.+*
The seemingly imposing warriors were all cut down, collapsing into disarray!
Xia Fei continued to charge forward madly, killing all opposition in his path!
*Swoosh swoosh swoos.h.!.+*
The third wave of hindrances consisted of beaked mouse-sized lifeforms. No, these were not lifeforms! They were meticulous creations of some artificer, metal beetles used to kill enemies!
Enormous bodies might be very scary, but small and tenacious metal insects could catch a person off guard!
“Dragon’s Gate Triple Wave!
“Sea-crossing Gold Ripple!
“Hurricane Slas.h.!.+”
At this time, the more than one hundred techniques Oro had forced Xia Fei to learn finally proved themselves useful!
All of the attacks Xia Fei unleashed were wide-area attacks!
They swept through the pa.s.sage like an all-consuming storm!
One hundred thousand metal beetles were blown away by the brutal hurricane!
A moment later, the metal beetles were mashed together by formidable law power! Even their shape had changed, going from savage metal monsters to b.a.l.l.s of metal sc.r.a.p!
Such powerful law force! This was because Xia Fei had mixed the Law of Primal Chaos into his attacks!
Pressure!
A suffocating pressure!
Xia Fei could not stop because this place was a trap. High speed was the only solution, and there was still no end in sight to these maze-like pa.s.sages!
Who had created these endless pa.s.sages, designed all these traps, and put down all these obstacles, and what was hidden behind all these dangers?!
“This isn’t getting me anywhere!” Xia Fei urgently said.
“What else is there?! Your way out is sealed by that stone. We can only go forward!”
Clenching his teeth, Xia Fei madly shouted, “What else is there? Ignore it all!”
*Whoos.h.!.+*
Peac.o.c.k Blue’s five blades of gra.s.s extended outward, not aimed in front of Xia Fei but rather at his sides!
*Rumble!*
The giant blades of gra.s.s plunged into the walls, breaking open the concrete! The mechanisms hidden in the walls were dragged out!
The walls had been exquisitely constructed. Behind the concrete layer was complex machinery, which served to unleash those hidden weapons infused with law force!
“Regardless of what this is, let’s destroy everything first!”
Xia Fei hardened his resolve and charged into the walls!
There were countless cracks and openings between the complex machinery, and Xia Fei agilely moved through these openings, destroying all the machinery on the way!
The long, narrow, and endless pa.s.sages were a trap used to deal with intruders. Xia Fei had no reason to do as someone else expected and keep moving forward.
Since the pa.s.sages were a big, elaborate trap, were the expected route, Xia Fei would not take the expected route!
The creator had gone through great lengths to dig out the two sides of the pa.s.sage and place these giant machines on the sides.
This path which was not a path had now become Xia Fei’s choice!
Peac.o.c.k Blue flailed out like a five-legged octopus, destroying everything in its path!
‘Since it’s a trap, I’ll just destroy it!’ Xia Fei mentally roared!
Sure enough, the designer of this trap had never expected someone to bust through the machinery in the walls. He had not expected that there would be someone like Xia Fei, who did not follow the path laid before him and chose to destroy his life’s work, instead!
The machines were all connected to one another, and by destroying a part, Xia Fei also dealt damage to the other parts. Gradually, the attacks began to dwindle, and the trap started to go out of control.
However, he was far from done!
*Rumble!*
Peac.o.c.k Blue acted like a giant jack, pus.h.i.+ng upward and making the entire pa.s.sage collapse!
What life’s work? This pa.s.sage blocked Xia Fei’s advance, so it was his enemy!
Of course, enemies had to die!
It was difficult to imagine a person having the power to destroy an entire city!
Xia Fei just did not act according to logic. The eyes of the designer of this complicated place would have their eyes popping out if they were here.
The more complicated the design, the more sensitive it was to damage. Xia Fei’s random destruction had paralyzed the entire system!
*Rumble!*
Perhaps sensing that the traps and hidden weapons could no longer hold back Xia Fei, the pa.s.sage began to collapse swiftly as it tried to bring Xia Fei down with it!
‘Not good!’
Startled, Xia Fei realized that more debris was starting to fall from above; a deafening roar like an earthquake was also approaching!
This island was about to sink!
“Ocular Cognition!”
Xia Fei’s eyes erupted with sharp lights! He used Ocular Cognition to observe the structure of the pa.s.sage!
“This way!”
Accelerating, Xia Fei charged into a pa.s.sage he had not gone into before. This pa.s.sage seemed abnormally tough and had suffered the least amount of damage from the shaking.
There must be a reason for this abnormality! Without hesitation, Xia Fei charged into this toughest pa.s.sage at two hundred forty thousand meters per second!
*Bang!*
A giant stone weighing ten thousand tons suddenly dropped down, sealing Xia Fei’s path forward.
“This is a Dragonstone! It’s exceptionally tough and can absorb law power!” Oro urgently cried.
Dragonstones were law warriors’ worst enemy, as they could absorb law power. Such a ma.s.sive stone could resist a terrifying number of law attacks.
“Break for me!” Xia Fei roared, the Law of Primal Chaos erupting out of both of his arms!
The Law of Primal Chaos was no ordinary law force. This was a force that could reverse black and white!
*Rumble!*
With a ma.s.sive rumble, the giant stone crumbled!
As expected, the Dragonstone could resist laws, but it could not resist the heaven-defying Law of Primal Chaos!
“Look! There’s light ahead!” Oro called.
