Chapter 937 - Water Type Versus Plant Type
"Peac.o.c.k Blue?!"
"Water of Resentment?!"
Xia Fei and Tai Xiaojun discovered that the other was a wielder of an Immemorial Mystical Armament, too, the moment they took out their respective weapons!
Situations tended to unfold in unexpected ways; the unknown Xia Fei and the obscure Tai Xiaojun. What ought to have been a very nondescript clash began in earnest!
*Bloop*
Tai Xiaojun wriggled his palm, and Immemorial Mystical Armament Water of Resentment suddenly extended out wildly, as if it had exploded in its center!
Like a downpour, droplets of jade blue water came shooting out!
There were countless droplets being released, and the entire valley was surrounded by the Water of Resentment!
This was the unique characteristic of this water-type Immemorial Mystical Armament! It was pervasive, and concentrated or scattered, it was a weapon that could kill whatever it touched!
"Dodge!"
As a superspeed warrior, Xia Fei"s reaction was, of course, not slow. His footsteps suddenly changed. Crafty Approach, after repeated modifications and enhancements, had already evolved to provide Xia Fei with inscrutable footwork. This physical agility, as well as that flicking flash of steps, was simply so dazzling that people would become dazed just by simply trying to follow it with their eyes!
*Whoosh~*
Xia Fei was not alone; Furball was also swiftly dodging the relentless a.s.sault of the Water of Resentment, using its little frame to navigate through this downpour nimbly.
As this was his first time fighting against a water-type Immemorial Mystical Armament, Xia Fei would of course act cautiously.
After all, this was the Water of Resentment, which was notoriously known as able to destroy everything it touched utterly!
A mystical armament that could melt away everything it touched, destroying the very bones of living creatures. Resentment was all that would remain!
The Water of Resentment and Nirvana were in no way alike, but the method they killed was equally violent! The complete eradication of their foe was the ultimate goal!
Xia Fei and Tai Xiaojun faced each other several hundred meters apart.
The valley around them had been completely changed after being eroded off by the Water of Resentment"s attack. Like the wrinkled face of an old lady, the entire landscape was marred with ditches as a noxious smell pervaded the air.
"You cannot underestimate the Water of Resentment in the least!" Radix stressed.
Xia Fei smiled. "I know. That, just now, has been an illusion. Compared to the usual corrosive liquid, the Water of Resentment can be controlled! He deliberately showed weakness to bait me into acting and then kill me in one blow!"
Radix nodded anxiously. "That"s right! Your judgment is very keen, and so is your observation; he has full control of the Immemorial Mystical Armament! If you think it is as simple as just evading the Water of Resentment"s attacks, you"ll suffer a huge loss!"
Xia Fei did not give a response. He could already vaguely sense how wily Tai Xiaojun was, deliberately showing weakness to catch him off guard and kill him thereafter. This was a trick Xia Fei often used; he did not think that Tai Xiaojun would use this same method on him! Of course, Xia Fei would not fall for it!
If they went for another round, Tai Xiaojun might demonstrate the true extent of the Resentment of Water"s power!
Tai Xiaojun knitted his eyebrows slightly as he exclaimed in surprise, "On top of having an Immemorial Mystical Armament with you, do you also bring along the legendary Holy Beast Shatterstar whenever you go out? That"s far too strange…"
This was not the first time someone had said this to Xia Fei. No one understood the truth, either; just how Xia Fei had been able to gather such a gang of fiendishly heaven-defying things around him? Could it be because Xia Fei was even more fiendish than them all?
Xia Fei smiled as he softly answered, "You"re very strong, too. You"ve reached peak Law Sage, I believe."
Tai Xiaojun proudly lifted his chin and did not say a word as if silently agreeing to Xia Fei"s a.s.sessment.
The Dark lifeforms" a.s.sault did not cease, while Tai Xiaojun adroitly exchanged blows with Xia Fei. The White Tiger Soul Meteor had a very hard time holding out against the attacks on a grand scale, and the army itself was unerringly swiftly making its way through! There were even vanguard troops that had made their way over to Xia Fei!
*Kaboom*
A series of explosions went off as the land stirred!
Several small black wars.h.i.+ps let loose a string of spatial bombs around the Night Banquet! This time, the contact the Night Banquet had with the Law Realm at large had been utterly cut off! Neither spatial compa.s.ses nor spatial gates could be used!
In truth, the Dark lifeforms had already come prepared. Previously, they erected a wall that cut off the Night Banquet from the rest of the Law Realm from afar, but this time, what they had done was a more comprehensive termination of contact.
"Furball, hold them off!" Xia Fei waved his arm out and commanded.
*Whizz*
The size of the Holy Beast Shatterstar rapidly enlarged, and then it fired a violent energy beam, which cut several of the enemies nearest Xia Fei in half!
Xia Fei found out, in his astonishment, that these low tier Dark lifeforms had the ability to resurrect themselves, but the armorclad Dar lifeform elites actually lost this ability!
Alas, this was by no means good news, for while the higher tier Dark lifeforms could not bring themselves back to life, they possessed a measure of intellect! They even possessed ranged attacks, which were similar to law power!
These enemies seemed to be aware of just how powerful Furball was and kept a.s.saulting with lazer-beam-like attacks as they continued with their evasive maneuvers, firing out black lazers that normal lazers had never had before! This was the first time Xia Fei had seen such feat with his own eyes.
"Awwooo!"
Furball, who was anxious, let out a long and piercing howl. Through the magnification function that Eight Tunes Golden Falcon possessed, this roar became a lethal soundwave, and the area it affected extended as far as thousands of square kilometers!
Furball had an energy barrier to protect itself, so it was not afraid of the enemies" ranged attacks, but as their numbers increased over time, the battlefield became even more chaotic. Even if he used all of its energy and his Eight Tunes Golden Falcon, he could only keep the million-strong army at bay for so long. The situation was looking dire!
"Kill!"
"We"ve been surrounded! Slay these evil Dark lifeforms!"
With perfect timing, a group of fearless warriors led the charge out from inside the Night Banquet Inn, which drew the majority of the enemies over, thereby alleviating the pressure on Furball significantly.
Oro"s figure could be vaguely made out among this group of warriors, fighting side by side with some Guardians, killing the enemies with ferocity!
As a Superior Law G.o.d, the old demon lord was never one who feared death. The moment the Law of Primal Chaos turned him from a Lionheart to a human, he was also granted an impressively strong regenerative ability! Even if this body of his got destroyed, Oro would still be back in action after a month"s time!
Seeing that they were on the verge of being surrounded by the Dark lifeforms, Tai Xiaojun and Xia Fei came to the same conclusion: Finish this fight as fast as possible!
Tai Xiaojun wanted to flee with Hua Siniang"s prized collections as well as the Dark Night Diary, but Xia Fei wanted his life and everything in his possession!
With a flick of his hand, Tai Xiaojun pointed at Xia Fei and shouted, "Since you wish to die, I shall grant you your wis.h.!.+ I"ll let you know just how powerful the water-type mystical armament is!"
*Whoosh*
The two owners of Immemorial Mystical Armaments engaged in combat once more. Sure enough, as Xia Fei expected, Tai Xiaojun used the same method of attack, exploding the center of his Water of Resentment! The corrosive liquid went flying in every direction!
*Sha*
A heavy downpour came hurtling toward Xia Fei, but when he got slightly closer, these raindrops magically changed their trajectory! The raindrops, which came pouring down rapidly, increased in speed, turning into a million bullets. The heavy downpour had turned into a hail of bullets!
"Bet you didn"t see that coming! Though its water, it can actually be controlled," Tai Xiaojun animatedly enthused, "making it all the more lethal!"
Alas, something inexplicable happened before he could even finish speaking!
The fiendish blade, Nirvana, indomitably lunged forward!
The cross-shaped blade was big, and it moved at such high speed as if it were a large spinning tourbillon! It then used its frame to block a portion of the attack.
Radix was controlling the weapon, using his highly advanced mind to calculate the most accurate position by which he could block the most number of raindrops!
There was also a second layer of defense behind the fiendish blade: the four times fused Peac.o.c.k Blue!
Because it had the addition of the Unparting Pine, Peac.o.c.k Blue was now even st.u.r.dier than gold ore. These highly corrosive raindrops might be able to damage its leaves and stem, but it could not truly harm the very essence of the bluegra.s.s!
The six bluegra.s.s blades danced as they s.h.i.+elded Xia Fei so well not even the wind could get in!
Even if a minute portion of the raindrops did manage to make it through the twin layers of protection from Nirvana and Peac.o.c.k Blue, it was ultimately not enough to undermine the final layer, the Law G.o.d grade war armor, Sin Raksha!
The layered defense using three decidedly different methods! Xia Fei could actually hurtle through this bulletstorm and close the distance between him and Tai Xiaojun!
"Xia Fei, this is a very astonis.h.i.+ng discovery! The fiendish blade Nirvana can actually absorb the power of the Water of Resentment! This is too miraculous!" Radix exclaimed in shock.
Though the droplets of water that struck Nirvana had corrosive effects, Nirvana"s ravenous devouring had caused the attack to become weaker and weaker, even to the point of Nirvana forcibly draining a large amount of energy. In the end, the droplets became no different from normal rain!
It was almost as if Xia Fei"s level was not the only one experiencing a rocket-like improvement but also the fiendish blade, Nirvana, which was gradually revealing its majesty!
Xia Fei was expressionless, using his psychokinetic ability to take control of Nirvana, shoving Radix to a corner mercilessly!
Ultimately, Radix was not a warrior, and he lacked the all-important concentration of Xia Fei!
Forget about Nirvana absorbing the Water of Resentment"s energy, even if it exploded right down in the middle, Xia Fei would definitely not be uttering even a sound!
The battle was still ongoing, so he must devote his complete concentration to the fight! Nothing that might affect the mood of the battle could appear! Even if the sky fell down, he needed to deal with the enemy in front of him first before anything else!
This was what it meant to be a born warrior!
Radix was nowhere comparable as a fighter to Xia Fei, which was why the latter had treated the former as a factor affecting the battle and tossed him aside!
It was such a profound lesson that Radix paled. He very awkwardly hid himself far away. Indubitably, this was a lesson that he would remember for the rest of his life: Never bother Xia Fei during battle, or else he would not show a lick of face even to this heavenly senior!
*Kaboom!*
Nirvana became even more savage after Xia Fei took control of it, its speed increasing once more! The dagger was now a blur spin!
Peak Law Sage Tai Xiaojun had evidently underestimated Xia Fei"s hidden trump cards; he did not expect that Xia Fei would rely on his three-layered defense to charge at him while under the bulletstorm a.s.sault from the Water of Resentment!
Tai Xiaojun took a hurried few steps backward and linked up his two hands, thrusting out both his palms!
"Thirteen repeated White Wave!" Tai Xiaojun bellowed as his index finger wiggled thirteen times, forming a white wave of turbulent light with every wag!
"White Wave Azure Blade!" grunted Xia Fei to himself.
The Stargazer"s White Wave Azure Blade! It was another killing blade under the command of the G.o.d Race, and its fame was on par with the Demon-sealing Fiendish Blade, yet it was also a very unique existence!
This Tai Xiaojun was not only a wielder of Immemorial Mystical Armament Water of Resentment; he was also someone of the White Wave Azure Blade!
*Zing*
Xia Fei"s eyes became very focused. Everyone knew that the most lethal move of the White Wave Azure Blade was not the wave after wave of white l.u.s.ter, which rushed toward the target, but the azure blade edge hidden in these waves!
With the large AoE as cover, the white wave in front and the azure blade behind, it was a spectacular display of a hidden blade attack!
"c.r.a.p!" Xia Fei suddenly yelped as his two eyes opened in bewilderment.
All he saw was an azure knife swiftly flying out, and its target was actually Furball, who was busy keeping the Dark lifeforms" army at bay!
Furball had his back to the fighting at this moment, as this azure knife streaked across the air like a shooting star, flying right at him!
"What a sinister fellow!" Xia Fei was furious. He unleashed his inner demon sans any restraint! That colorful energy ball in his seventh brain region had also released an unprecedentedly large amount of energy just like before!
*Whoosh*
With the burst of energy as fuel, Xia Fei"s speed instantly broke the two-million speed barrier! He went das.h.i.+ng over at this unbelievable speed, using Nirvana to block the fatal azure knife!
As Xia Fei was doing all this, a rather strange thing happened.
Faint outline of a white wing floated on Xia Fei"s right side, almost as if someone had stuck a wing on him!
"You must die today!" Xia Fei was already in outrage when he turned around after blocking that attack for Furball!
Tai Xiaojun"s expression went completely pale. He had not felt such fear even at the most critical moment earlier, but the appearance of that indistinct wing on Xia Fei"s right side shocked Tai Xiaojun so deeply he seemed to have just seen the Grim Reaper! Just what could be the reason for this?
"Fiendish Wing! You"re a Fiendish Wing!" Tai Xiaojun blurted out in shock.
A Skywing must first bear a pair of wings on their back if they aspired to traverse the starry skies and nine heavens!
Xia Fei had inadvertently grown his first wing!
