Chapter 963: Killing a Law God and Seizing a Divine Weapon
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
*Bang!*
After one strike, Xia Fei and New Moon separated again. New Moon’s combat armor was now covered in cuts. Some of them were inflicted by Peacock Blue, while others were made by Xia Fei’s Fiendish Wing.
*Whoosh whoosh!*
Xia Fei panted for breath. This battle had not been easy for him, either. Sin Raksha’s left shoulder was clearly missing a chunk, and some blood was seeping out from the cracks.
It was a difficult battle. New Moon had his mystical tool, the Celestial Stamp Bodhi, while Xia Fei had the fiendish blade, Nirvana. New Moon had the Three Great Laws, while Xia Fei had the subversive power of the Law of Primal Chaos. New Moon came from the Beautiful Hidden Blade, while Xia Fei came from the Demon-sealing Fiendish Blade! New Moon had a much higher rank, while Xia Fei had the rainbow ball of energy in his seventh brain region!
Both sides were evenly matched, each clash resulting in either coming away wounded.
Gritting his teeth, Xia Fei accelerated again and began a new offensive on New Moon!
New Moon felt like his head was about to burst. He had never encountered an opponent like Xia Fei before. Attack, attack, and attack again! Ceaseless attacking!
Even though Xia Fei was clearly on the verge of collapse, he continued to wrangle with New Moon ceaselessly, showing no intent of backing down!
Even Xia Fei’s Peacock Blue was like this. Though it had already been destroyed several times by New Moon, this Immemorial Mystical Armament had exhibited a peerless vitality, growing again and again, using its regrown blades of grass to enter the battlefield once more sans the slightest bit of hesitation!
New Moon felt like he was not fighting a human warrior but was trying to fend off a devil from hell, instead!
“It’s New Moon! The Law Realm’s number-one divine archer and a traitor of the Beautiful Hidden Blade!” In the distance, Law God Xia Jing said in shock.
How great was the turmoil created by Xia Fei and New Moon’s battle? Huge! It was so vast that the White Flamingo communication device had been able to detect these abnormal energy pulses. The three Skywing Law Gods had their curiosity piqued and rushed over, little expecting to see such a desperate battle taking place!
“I didn’t think that Xia Fei could do it! For him to fight to a stalemate with New Moon can only be considered a miracle! To tell the truth, if any one of us went up against New Moon, we couldn’t guarantee a win. Xia Fei has been hiding a lot! His combat power is already equal to ours!” exclaimed Xia Hong in utter shock.
Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng had sent the three Great Law Gods to act as Xia Fei’s back-up. After all, they were all Law Gods! Some of the few super-experts of the Skywing Clan.
However, it turned out that there was no need for a back-up. Xia Fei could fight back against a level 8 Great Law God all on his own. This ability to challenge those above his rank truly made others blush in shame!
Xia Helin’s eyes flashed as he firmly nodded. “New Moon is an expert. Since the Thirteen Founders sent him out, it means that they don’t have any better cards to play against Xia Fei! If Xia Fei can hold out against New Moon, the Thirteen Founders will have no choice but to take action personally! Xia Fei will have seized the chance by using his own life! We must make good use of this opportunity! We can’t let Xia Fei bleed in vain!”
The three Skywing Law Gods all had solemn expressions as they clenched their fists.
At present, Xia Fei was fighting all alone. The three Skywing Law Gods had hidden themselves very well, and nobody knew that there was a sharp sword suspended behind him!
If Xia Fei could not hold out against New Moon’s attacks, the three Skywing Law Gods would undoubtedly lend a hand, but this would expose the fact that there was an ambush lurking behind Xia Fei, and the plan to lure out the Founders might be ruined as a result.
However, Xia Fei truly lived up to his role as the lone wolf of the Skywing Clan. As the earliest in the history of the clan to unfurl a Fiendish Wing, he had singlehandedly withstood the pressure of the Founders and had not forced Xia Jing’s group to expose themselves.
Taken aback, Xia Jing suddenly said in shock, “Wait! Where’s Furball? Isn’t that guy always clinging onto Xia Fei like his shadow? Could it be…”
The three Law Gods turned pale from the flames of anger that burned within them.
They all believed that Xia Fei had not just been heavily injured by this battle but had also lost his loyal Holy beast!
Sorrowful fury!
Incomparable sorrow and rage!
The three Law Gods all felt that Xia Fei had sacrificed too much for the clan, such that there was no way of making it up to him, and the flames of anger burned in their bellies.
…
Morale would be stirred on the first beat of the drum, but it would fade on the second beat and completely run out by the third.
Xia Fei had the near limitless energy from his seventh brain region as his reserve, but New Moon did not have that. Perhaps a single strike from New Moon was much stronger than Xia Fei’s, but Xia Fei had the profound Law of Primal Chaos. No matter how New Moon attacked, the subversive power would always neutralize it!
As the battle dragged on, Xia Fei’s endurance began to show its advantage. No one could overcome him in this aspect! After all, he had that unique rainbow energy ball.
“Remember: My name is New Moon! The Law Realm’s strongest archer! There’s no other!” New Moon panted for breath, his complexion ashen. “Today, I will let you experience the power of a divine arrow that can shatter the universe!”
It appeared that New Moon did not want to continue this battle anymore. With his countless years of combat experience, New Moon understood that Xia Fei was one of those vexing enemies. Whoever he fought, Xia Fei would always make his opponent follow his tempo and slowly wear them down.
To deal with troublesome foes like this one, there was no better solution except to kill them in one blow!
*Whoosh!*
New Moon once more swung his arms, opening the Celestial Stamp Bodhi.
Things were clearly different this time, though, for white light came flying from New Moon’s body into the Celestial Stamp Bodhi, converting it to a frenzied offensive power!
“He’s using his life force to unleash the most powerful attack he can muster!” Radix shouted in shock.
Using life force for an attack was a warrior’s final resort when they had no other options!
New Moon was going to the most extreme length, just like detonating his body and gambling all of his life force, as well as cultivation, to go down with the enemy!
It must be understood that this was the life force of a level 8 Great Law God!
Since New Moon had decided to exchange his life force for Xia Fei’s death, this attack was foreordained to be powerful beyond comparison!
Xia Fei clenched his teeth, a chill in his eyes. He quickly made up his mind and used a similarly powerful counterattack to decide the outcome of this battle with New Moon!
It had been far too long, and Xia Fei was growing more and more worried about Furball’s safety. Logically, keeping up this protracted battle was the superior strategy, but his concern for Furball meant that he was unwilling to keep delaying!
New Moon drew his powerful bow, while Xia Fei harnessed the power of the Law of Primal Chaos!
As he brought his hands together, Xia Fei’s muscles bulged. He drew on every last sliver of energy in his body for this Law of Primal Chaos attack!
The divine arrow manifested while the Dark Crescent Ruinblade condensed! New Moon’s strongest attack and Xia Fei’s strongest attack were both building power.
The three Skywing Law Gods in the distance inhaled. They had no idea who would win this clash.
At this moment, a roaring came from the distance.
A white ball rapidly streaked toward Xia Fei.
“Furball!” Xia Fei and Radix both cried in surprise.
They were not just shocked because Furball had returned but also because he had clearly changed appearances from before. His soft fur had become steel like needles, and there was a half-crippled monster in his mouth!
“Good job! Furball really is formidable! Not only did he evolve to level 7, he brought back Dark monster Suya!” Radix excitedly said.
Furball was not just savage but was also smart. He knew that Xia Fei needed Immemorial Mystical Armaments, so he had only heavily wounded Suya rather than killing it, bringing the dying beast back with him! This would allow Xia Fei to tame the Warpsea Lotus in Suya’s possession!
“You came at the perfect time!” Xia Fei shouted. “Lend me your energy! Delusion Technique!”
*Pa!*
Xia Fei quickly fired off a ball of light, which flew into Furball’s body.
In a flash, Furball took human form, and limitless energy began to flow into Xia Fei’s body!
“Such vast energy! It seems like this guy had quite the feast!” Xia Fei heartily laughed, his voice brimming with joy and delight.
Yes, Furball had not just evolved. After killing Moha and heavily injuring Suya, he had absorbed all of the energy of the Celestial Refining Beast Formation. Only then did he go back to find Xia Fei. At this moment, he was as full of energy as he had ever been!
This energy was of immense help to Xia Fei. After this bitterly fought battle, Xia Fei had used up almost all the energy of the rainbow ball in his seventh brain region. With Furball’s support, Xia Fei was once more bursting with power!
In the distance, New Moon had turned ghastly pale. The Dark Crescent Ruinblade that Xia Fei was gathering power for was getting stronger and stronger. New Moon could see, so he had no choice but to draw on more of his life force to even the scales.
A level 7 Furball could not be disregarded. After all, Shatterstar was an energy-type Holy beast!
New Moon began to get thinner and thinner, but the energy he received in this manner still could not keep up with Xia Fei. He grew increasingly concerned, for he was finally beginning to lose his hold over this battle!
*Whoosh~*
After building up the Law of Primal Chaos attack to maximum power, Xia Fei was in no rush to attack, instead moving closer to New Moon.
As the distance between them decreased, New Moon began to sweat in his panic. He swiftly let loose his arrow and began to build power for a second attack.
*Rumble!*
The tri-colored divine arrow thundered toward Xia Fei.
“Dark Crescent Ruinblade!”
With a roar, Xia Fei unleashed his attack!
The ruinblade flew out, crashing into New Moon’s divine arrow!
*Bang!*
It was clear that the Law of Primal Chaos was a maddening sort of energy! The Dark Crescent Ruinblade sliced the tri-colored divine arrow in half with little trouble! This was the wonder of abundant energy! With Furball’s endless flood of energy, Xia Fei had been reborn!
A second arrow! A third arrow!
Running short on energy, New Moon was at the end of his rope. Not even three arrows in a row could stop the charge of the Dark Crescent Ruinblade. Meanwhile, Xia Fei and Furball were attacking New Moon from his left and right!
*Rumble!*
The region of space fell into chaos, and it became impossible to distinguish Furball’s attacks from Xia Fei’s. The multifaceted and endless attacks that Xia Fei was so skilled in assailed New Moon.
Energy was truly a wonderful thing, and Xia Fei was once more bouncing around. Meanwhile, New Moon was pushed back again and again as he tried to defend. He did not even have time to absorb energy from an Origin Crystal, for the attacks of Xia Fei and Furball were too dense and concentrated, like a deluge!
*Plush!*
Finally, the fiendish blade Nirvana plunged into New Moon’s chest!
The frenzied fiendish blade sucked out the last life force from this level 8 Great Law God!
*Pa!*
Xia Fei grabbed the Celestial Stamp Bodhi, holding it aloft like a victor!
“Mystical Tool? That’s mine!” Xia Fei brashly declared as he craftily smiled.
