Chapter 884: Gigantic Dark Lifeform!

In the darkness, Peacock Blue, which had suddenly come alive, exploded with a combat strength that far outstripped what it demonstrated in the past! A humongous bluegrass blade sliced across thousands! These evil creatures of darkness were completely helpless against Peacock Blue’s powerful cut!

It was as if Peacock Blue existed solely to deal with Dark lifeforms. Not just its combat strength that surpassed its previous performances; even the poison attribute, which Xia Fei was led to believe had disappeared, reappeared once again!

*Boom*

A rather tall Dark warrior got viciously swept to the ground by Peacock Blue. It appeared that this warrior was a level stronger than the normal Dark lifeforms. Peacock Blue had only managed to lacerate him across his back, not enough to cleave him in half.

Xia Fei watched as this Dark warrior got up and let out a violent roar. However, the sound he made was not at all menacing but more like he was enduring great pain.

His black skin began to erode like a weathered rock, and in the blink of an eye, the Dark warrior had turned into a puddle of sand!

This was the power of acute toxins!

Evidently, the most poisonous Nine Night Plum of the Seven Plants of Cloud Sea was not gone; just that its acute toxins was even more effective against Dark lifeforms. It could only paralyze the targets a little when used against normal lifeforms, hardly a threat to any warrior of decent cultivation. However, the moment this toxin was used against Dark lifeforms, it became an extremely brutal and highly potent! An inexorable poison that utterly destroyed its enemies!

Xia Fei was pleasantly surprised by this. Peacock Blue was strong before, but it had never been strong to such an incredibly significant degree!

It must be known that these Dark lifeforms were very strange. Even Furball’s energy attacks could only disintegrate a part of their body and what remained would still be alive. They were even able to reconstitute their bodies and would still be the savage monsters that they were right after they reformed!

It was different when Peacock Blue attacked, though, for it could completely destroy these Dark lifeforms! Even if some of the physically stronger managed to escape, it would only be temporary. The acute toxin of Peacock Blue would swiftly take their lives soon after, and it would do so in an extremely vile fashion!

On the other side, Immemorial Mystical Armament Unparting Pine swayed with its hardy leaves and branches; its sharp pine needles were like indestructible spikes as they slayed all the enemies around!

However, the Unparting Pine’s combat strength could not compare to that of Peacock Blue. After all, Peacock Blue was currently a synthesis of three Immemorial Mystical Armaments, while Unparting Pine could only rely on its own strength!

It seemed like these Dark lifeforms knew just how powerful the Immemorial Mystical Armaments were, so they stopped at nothing to try and destroy Unparting Pine. Hundreds of enemies descended upon the planet like a mass of dark clouds, looking to suppress Xia Fei’s side!

Xia Fei and the Unparting Pine were in for a grueling battle! All they could do was withstand the attacks as best as they could in the darkness.

An almost imperceptible tacit coordination began to take shape. Unparting Pine left its back for Xia Fei, while it concentrated on dealing with the enemies coming in from the left flank. Xia Fei did the same as well, focusing his efforts on the right flank.

The man and the Immemorial Mystical Armament worked in tandem and had actually managed to hold out against the tidal wave of Dark lifeforms!

As for Furball, he was currently taking up the responsibility of a ranger. Whenever there was a sudden burst of activities in the outer part of the encirclement, though his energy attack was not as effective as Peacock Blue’s, he still managed to keep the enemies at bay with it. His tenacious assault greatly alleviated the pressure Xia Fei and the Unparting Pine were already under. Though the Dark lifeforms numbered well over the millions, it was still not enough to overwhelm Xia Fei!

Xia Fei frowned. Since the Skywing reinforcement had yet to arrive, was there some unforeseen situation happening outside the protective barrier?

*Plush*

The Blood Crystal easily stabbed through a Dark warrior’s chest, and it absorbed the energy he contained within his body! As a demonic dagger that swallowed it all, it was still effective even when used against the Dark lifeforms.

*Whoosh*

As the Dark lifeform’s energy flowed to Xia Fei’s seventh brain region via the Blood Crystal, a very strange sensation came to be.

Very different from killing warriors of the two races, the Dark lifeforms did not have much energy, but it made Xia Fei feel… very comfortable?!

It was a very strange phenomenon. Dark lifeforms were tabooed in the Law Realm and were seen as the vilest enemies by those in residence. As for Xia Fei, he actually found himself enjoying consuming the energy of these Dark lifeforms! It felt like he was drinking aged wine, a sense of great ease washing over him!

There was just one large wave of Dark lifeforms, and there were no reinforcements beyond this million-strong army, which was surging right at them at the moment. Xia Fei and the Unparting Pine held their ground as best as they could and managed to withstand the pressure of the enemy attacks, so the next step now should be their counterattack!

*Kaboom*

Xia Fei and the Unparting Pine became even bolder, as more Dark lifeforms were defeated. Like the fall’s wind blowing up fallen leaves, the two swept out a whole swath of enemies!

At this point, Xia Fei had not just increased the tempo of him wielding the Blood Crystal, he had even begun to cultivate while fighting!

Absorbing the energy from the Dark lifeforms made Xia Fei feel the reign of unprecedented tranquility in his brain region, and he did not have to worry about energy fluctuations at all while fighting. This was an opportunity for him to begin cultivating while his seventh brain region was at peace!

…

*Squelch*

When the Blood Crystal stabbed into the chest of the final Dark lifeform, Xia Fei also managed to get past the threshold of level 3 Law Overlord!

The Unparting Pine returned to its state of tranquility, while Xia Fei now stood stationary a distance away, further consolidating the fruits of his hard-won cultivation.

Xia Fei had understood a principle after experiencing the Skywings’ method of cultivating the Law of Speed: Cultivation was not something that could only happen when one was at peace; it could also happen even when one was exercising or at combat!

The key was to find that equilibrium between activity and cultivation and be able to handle the sudden energy spikes and fluctuations.

The Dark lifeforms provided Xia Fei with very stable energy, while Alpha had imparted him the ability to multitask previously. This was when Xia Fei though of an idea; if he could combine all the key points together, he might actually be able to come up with the ability to cultivate while in the middle of a fight!

By doing precisely that, Xia Fei had managed to attain level 3 Law Overlord at one go!

“Just what’s going on with these Dark lifeforms? Why is it that I feel so relaxed when absorbing their energy?” Xia Fei wondered aloud as he furrowed his brows.

He lowered his head and used a small knife to pick at some of the corpses, inspecting them closely.

Xia Fei saw that there was a fundamental difference between these entities and known sapient lifeforms; these Dark creatures’ bodies lacked any of the internal organs he could recognize, such as lungs and heart, and, instead, possessed very complex anatomy that Xia Fei had not seen before. Just like the complicated glass pipelines one would find in chemistry laboratories, every part of their bodies was very densely packed, all connected together.

Their eyes did not have any pupils and were just completely pitch-black. In this darkness, Xia Fei needed to rely on his night vision just to make them out; clearly, these Dark lifeforms were very suited to living in this darkness.

Xia Fei let out a long sigh before getting up, looking fairly solemn.

The Dark lifeforms existed outside the territory of the Law Realm, and now that such a large swarm of them had turned up, it just went to show that the Dark lifeforms out there were also beginning to make waves.

In fact, these Dark lifeforms that Xia Fei had encountered today were the weakest level of warriors among their species and relied on numbers to attain victory. They were absolutely no match for Xia Fei one on one, but only heavens knew if the experts in the dark would suddenly jump out! He needed to be vigilant.

When the fight ended and the millions of Dark lifeforms lay dead before them, the Unparting Pine returned to its normal state. That lush and green gigantic pine tree seemed a little tired, but it still stood as proudly as before, maintaining that dignity unique to Immemorial Mystical Armaments.

Xia Fei smiled as he walked over to pat the trunk of the Unparting Pine. “It was nice working with you, but that still doesn’t change my determination to subdue you.”

The Unparting Pine was silent. Though the gigantic pine allowed Xia Fei to get near it, this did not mean that it had any desire to be subdued by Xia Fei.

It could not be helped. The higher a grade of existence one was in the universe, the greater the pride they had. Though his pet, Furball, had always looked shady and cunning, the majesty of the Holy Beast was unmistakably overwhelming when in battle; the same could be said for Immemorial Mystical Armaments. It seemed like Xia Fei would have to expend some more effort so he could subjugate the Unparting Pine.

All of a sudden—

The ground shook vigorously!

Following which, a commotion akin to a planet exploding was heard from far away, and it was getting closer and closer, almost as if some gigantic entity was heading straight their way!

*Whoosh*

Xia Fei promptly accelerated, moving at a speed well over a million meters per second through the empty space. He soon arrived at the hole that the Dark lifeforms made when they first came pouring in and peered out.

“This isn’t the Turbulence!” exclaimed Xia Fei in surprise.

It was very obvious this was not the Turbulence! Because the Turbulence was an abnormal place sandwiched between the Dark Space and conventional space, but right now, everything around him was just total darkness!

Xia Fei had no idea how he had arrived at this completely foreign place, but that did not really matter right now. What actually mattered was that huge entity in front of him, which was thumping in space, causing sounds that could shock the very skies with its every beat!

From how it looked, it was a gigantic toad, completely black all over, and even its eyes were black.

It was huge! Unbelievably huge! It could practically fit this entire piece of space in its mouth!

*Bump*

*Bump*

This huge toad was presently very far away, hopping its way over!

Peacock Blue bristled with fighting spirit once again, though it did seem to be a little nervous. This was completely different from the host of Dark lifeforms that they had faced moments ago; Xia Fei could even feel a measure of trepidation toward this huge, black toad!

“Just what exactly is this thing?” Xia Fei was utterly shocked. He did not know when he had left the Turbulence to even meet such a gigantic entity the size of a dozen or so planets!

*Whoosh*

Xia Fei gritted his teeth and flew back to Immemorial Mystical Armament Unparting Pine’s side.

This great pine tree once more displayed its fighting state, though its target was clearly not Xia Fei but that gigantic invader in space!

The Unparting Pine was over a hundred meters tall, yet it was insignificantly small when compared to that gargantuan toad! It was so small that the enemy could swallow it whole without leaving any leftover!

“I know that you’re a very hardy soul, but that Dark lifeform isn’t something you can face against by yourself! Join me and I’ll take you away from this place!” Xia Fei extended his right hand and spoke.

The Unparting Pine was trapped on this planet, unable to move. If it wanted to avoid being swallowed whole, its own choice was to accept the fusion! By ferrying on Xia Fei’s right arm and merging with Peacock Blue, it could rely on Xia Fei’s speed of one million meters per speed to escape from this dark place!

The Unparting Pine could understand what Xia Fei was saying. At the end of the battle earlier, it had gained a tacit understanding with Xia Fei, but it was still unwilling to bow down to Xia Fei.

*Boom*

Yet another loud sound rang out. It was obvious that this unknown gigantic toad was getting closer with each passing second, which meant that Xia Fei and Peacock Blue did not have much time left.

Furball let out a low growl, while Peacock Blue did its best to grow. Even the Blood Crystal let off a soft wail. Immemorial Mystical Armaments and exotic beasts had their own souls. Evidently feeling the tremendous threat heading their way by the powerful weapons of Xia Fei, they all became tense!

There were only two paths in front of Xia Fei now: He could either escape as fast as he could or throw himself in a fight to the death!

‘I hate dealing with enemies I don’t understand!’ Xia Fei knitted his eyebrows and rasped to himself.
