Master of the End Times

Chapter 717: Clinging Like the Shadow

Qin Feng too had activated his conscious energy and summoned a huge peacock that was made of blue fire.

Not only that, the blue-fire peacock was as tall as thirty meters! When it flapped its massive wings, it felt as though it had covered the entire sky.

“Screech!”

Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh!

The blue-fire peacock clashed with the oncoming metallic spears. A huge shockwave exploded the instant the peacock’s chest was pierced by the metallic spears.

Neither of them were actual spears or animal—they were just manifestations of runes. And fire runes would overcome metallic runes. It was common sense—fire would melt metal.

Thus, the metallic spears were now completely dissolved to nothingness.

Sal Bar leered at Qin Feng with a long face.

“Just what are you?! Ability user? Or an ancient warrior?!” Sal Bar’s consciousness barked furiously at Qin Feng.

After witnessing Qin Feng’s extremely devastating attack, he thought that Qin Feng was an ancient warrior. So, he was careful to evade every single attack that was coming from Qin Feng.

And yet now, it was quite apparent that Qin Feng could use rune abilities too! This was so unbelievable.

It was quite difficult for anyone to train in both of these arts at once. In fact, to reach B-tier in either field was already so great that no one had the time to train in both fields!

And this man... Qin Feng... this man looked so young! He was practically just a boy in Sal Bar’s eyes! How was this possible?!

“Well, do you think I’ll tell you just like that?”

In battles, it was best to not show your cards until the best moment had arrived. There was no way Qin Feng would foolishly tell his enemies his full-range of abilities.

Seeing that Qin Feng was not opening up for communication, Sal Bar’s face turned even grimmer than before. Now, he too had started to put up his guard.

It seemed that he was not going to pull his punches anymore.

“Metallic Forest!”

Sal Bar released a cloak of golden energy field. Then, suddenly, everything below under his feet—the buildings, items within the buildings were all turned into metal. Then, they soared up to the sky and extended toward Qin Feng, as though they wanted to fuse him into their metallic blend of blob.

In just seconds, Qin Feng was going to be crushed into minced meat!

“Hmph. Fire Wall!”

Qin Feng released his Fire Wall. In an instant, the whole building was engulfed in fire. In a matter of minutes, the floor had also turned into lava!

“Go!”

Qin Feng raised his hand and pointed at Sal Bar. The lava splashed up to a few dozen meters into the sky and crashed at Sal Bar like a tsunami.

Pssstt!!!!!!

Everything that was in the lava’s path was burned red, sizzling droves of vapor into the sky.

Sal Bar’s face turned pale. He quickly formed a steel wall in front of him and blocked the lava attack.

“Again!”

Qin Feng raised his hand and again, this time, there were dozens of fire dragons that rose up from the lava and into the sky. Then, they all plunged down straight at Sal Bar!

All that Sal Bar could do was just summon his metallic dragon to shield him from this attack.

Yet, Qin Feng’s attacks kept raining down non-stop. It felt as though it was never going to end!

“Hehe, how about this?”

“And this attack?”

“Try this one for size!”

“Sal Bar! Hey, Sal Bar! Look out, man. Yeah, look out! I’m going to burn all your hair now if you’re not careful!”

Qin Feng’s fire runes were more in number than Sal Bar’s supply of metal runes. To add on, Qin Feng’s consciousness was that of a B-tier emperor. As such, he was almost as powerful as an A-tier.

After exchanging blows like this for a while, it was quite apparent that Qin Feng had the upper hand.

Witnessing this, the ones from the other alliances took in a cold breath. Qin Feng was not bluffing earlier. This man was serious when he said “Let’s kill Sal Bar”!

But this Sal Bar was an A-tier! How could he, a B-tier, manage to take him on and pin him down like this?!

Even the snobbish Japanese Alliance’s ability user approached Xu Qing and asked, “Just who is this young man? He’s really strong. Is he one of the top guns in the Huaxia Alliance?”

Xu Qing shrugged and beamed up a bitter smile. “He’s indeed the best of the best amongst our B-tiers. He can take on people above his tier and still not lose. Not only that, he could very well kill someone who is of a higher tier than him.”

The Japanese ability user frowned, “Look, I do see that he’s quite strong. But it’s quite impossible for a B-tier to kill an A-tier.”

Even though they saw that Qin Feng had the upper hand at the moment, most of them still maintained that an A-tier would still be stronger in terms of consciousness and rune amount. After a long fight, Qin Feng would have expended all of his runes and then it would be his downfall.

Xu Qing, however, shook his head. Even though he too was not sure that Qin Feng would be able to win this fight, Xu Qing still said, “Right now, these attacks aren’t his strongest strikes though.”

“Well, his saber technique is quite powerful indeed. I have never seen attacks like that. But he suddenly changed his fighting style into using abilities. So, this must mean that his saber technique is too energy draining to use for a long period of time, right?”

Xu Qing just smiled and shook his head.

He was telling the truth—Qin Feng was not just a saber master or a powerful fire ability user. He was a dark ability user!

Meanwhile, Qin Feng’s Fire Wall had completely surrounded Sal Bar.

Sal Bar was basically standing on a building that was completely melted to just its steel skeletons and foundation. Everything else had been burned and melted into lava!

Booom!!

The lava started to rise quickly to the sky and was about to hit the roof!

“Alright! I get it! You’re strong, hotshot! But it’s impossible for you to kill me!”

Sal Bar yelled out furiously.

Despite what he said, Sal Bar was actually quite confused. Qin Feng was just a B-tier. Yet, from the looks of it, his powers and strength could very well be stronger than an A-tier!

Nonetheless, Sal Bar still thought that Qin Feng could not kill him. There was never any chance for a B-tier to kill an A-tier. All he had to do was just wait it out—he needed to wait until Qin Feng had expended all his reserve of runes.

Indeed, Sal Bar had used up a lot of his runes. But there was no way a B-tier like Qin Feng had greater rune reserve than him, right?

“Steel Fortress!”

Sal Bar triggered his consciousness and morphed the steel structure that he was standing on into a massive metallic fortress. Now, he was shielded by steel walls that were at least ten-meter thick. There was no way the fire could hurt him now.

More importantly, Sal Bar had left enough space within his Steel Fortress to use his spatial waymark. If things were to get really bad, he could always use these to escape. And to use his spatial waymarks, Sal Bar only needed a few seconds to activate them.

At the same time, Neil Bol was watching the fight from afar with sweat rolling down his forehead. He did not expect that the Huaxia Alliance had someone as strong as Qin Feng.

Suddenly, they noticed that the lava had started to recede. Then, they realized that Qin Feng too had disappeared!

Sal Bar, meanwhile, took in a deep breath after sensing that Qin Feng was not in the vicinity anymore. He quickly activated his spatial waymark.

Yet, suddenly... everything around him turned dark.

“Dark Shroud!”

Qin Feng had finally used his dark ability. Not only that, he had also appeared within the Steel Fortress!

“What the hell is going on?!”

Sal Bar widened his eyes in shock. He wanted to check his surroundings but no matter how much he tried to look... there was nothing but darkness.

Not only that, he also felt that he could not feel anything... he could not see, smell, hear... it was like he had lost all five of his senses!
