Chapter 766: Kill, Steal, Change
The more Sezsny did not wish to bump into the Divine Beast Blackscaled Axeblade, the more Xia Fei wanted to lure it toward him. This was yet another habit of Xia Fei, never letting his enemies succeed.
*Rumble*
Like a train running on tracks, the Blackscaled Axeblade’s appearance was accompanied by an earth shattering blast. This was a Divine Beast that was well over a hundred miles in length; destruction and mayhem followed it wherever it went.
Xia Fei knew very well that using the Delusion technique to create a clone with Furball could only temporarily inconvenience the enemy. As time passed, he would inevitably give the ruse away. If he wanted to be victorious, he would have to advance while facing death head-on and turn the battlefield into utter chaos, so much so that Sezsny had no way of grasping control!
*Whoosh*
Xia Fei was still darted left and right in the cavern, as the thousands of segmented body parts of the Blackscaled Axeblade dove into the mist, using a simple yet rough manner to act unreasonably, further fueling the havoc.
Depressed!
Extremely depressed!
Sezsny was hating Xia Fei to the bone right now! He hid in the mist, coldly breathing hard.
Everything had its pros and cons, and the Law of Mist was not perfect. Using the law could indeed thicken the mist in the surroundings, hiding within making himself impossible to be found.
The hardest thing about this law, however, was controlling a big mist. Once he lost control of that, Sezsny would have a hard time revealing himself to everyone, and so the Law of Mist would lose its effect in hiding his physical self.
Xia Fei had attracted the Divine Beast Blackscaled Axeblade. This Divine Beast had no capabilities to speak of, except to be an expert in throwing the battlefield into a state of pandemonium. As it rolled about its body in that thick mist, the mist became even harder to control, and Sezsny had to devote his full concentration toward it just to control the volume and area it covered.
While he was distracted with gathering the mist, the power of his attacks, which were infused with the Law of Flash Blitz, got greatly reduced. As there was a limit to the level of concentration a warrior possessed, Sezsny poured all his energy toward hiding himself, so how could he be paying any additional attention to attacking?!
Xia Fei knew very well that no matter how capable his enemy was, what he must do should naturally be the thing that they were least willing to happen! There was no need for reason or logic. The biggest reason was just to inflict the greatest suffering to his enemy!
The pandemonium the Divine Beast Blackscaled Axeblade created on the battlefield was even more effective than what Xia Fei had hoped for. As energy flew, Sezsny desperately did what he could do to maintain his stealth state.
He did not have the speeds that Xia Fei possessed, able to evade the attacks of the Blackscaled Axeblade very easily. As such, Sezsny could only rely on his mist, and the moment that failed, what protection he had would go along with it!
“Hahaha! Well done! Using that huge thing to keep messing around with Sezsny’s law power, how did I not think of it?” Oro marveled in glee.
Xia Fei did not share the demon lord’s optimism, though, for he was facing the heavy assaults from both Sezsny and the Blackscaled Axeblade. Though the latter had occupied much of the former’s concentration, he should still be able to find time to attack Xia Fei with what strength he had to spare when he could. That high speed Law of Flash Blitz was still a huge threat to Xia Fei!
*Whoosh*
An appalling black light flashed once more, cleaving down on Xia Fei’s lower torso at the speed of one hundred thousand meters per second!
The Law of Mist and the Law of Flash Blitz were all subsidiary under the Law of Darkness, so this mist was the user’s control of Darkness, while the Law of Flash Blitz magnified the speed of the darkness many times over! It was so quick that even a superspeed warrior like Xia Fei had trouble avoiding it!
“Law of Primal Chaos!”
Since he was now backed into a corner, Xia Fei decided to just go for it! He decided to clash head-on against this swift Law of Darkness attack with his Law of Primal Chaos!
*Boom*
A loud explosion ensued. A portion of the law force from the Law of Darkness Sezsny released got mitigated by Xia Fei, while the rest got reflected back!
As Xia Fei gained greater comprehension of the Law of Primal Chaos, the combat strength of it increased substantially as well. At present, it could not only reverse and nullify the law power of others, it could sometimes create a backlash, too. It was just that Xia Fei had not yet made sense of how to control this backlash.
“Argh!”
Sezsny, who was still within the mist, let out a pained cry. He originally thought that Xia Fei was merely a speed warrior, so he truly did not expect the latter to possess an outstanding power that could disrupt others’ law powers. As such, the Flash Blitz that he could unleash became very ineffectual; even if Xia Fei did not choose to evade the attack actively, he could use that law power of his to disrupt or even reflect it back!
It was said that the Darkpearl Clan was the mortal enemy of the Skywing Clan, but such a statement only applied to the average speed warrior, and Xia Fei was an exception. This was because Xia Fei belonged to the handful of warriors in the mortal plane who had a good grasp of the Law of Primal Chaos—among those who had the power to subvert all!
The anxiety-inducing state persisted. Not only did Xia Fei still have to evade the sneak attacks from Sezsny, he also needed to guard against the reckless attacks the Divine Beast Blackscaled Axeblade was throwing as the creature madly thrashed about.
The Blackscaled Axeblade was like a double-edged sword, able to be used against Sezsny but also a menace to Xia Fei himself. However, the threat of the Divine Beast was evidently a major headache for Sezsny and just a minor inconvenience for Xia Fei.
That was when several black figures sneaked along the cavern and joined in on the battle. Xia Fei focused and saw that it was the lucky surviving warriors from the surface. It seemed like this commotion he had created not only attracted the Blackscaled Axeblade over but also some of the more daring individuals.
Seeing the horrific scene on this battlefield, several of these warriors got scared silly, only regretting that they ventured into the lair of this Divine Beast.
Xia Fei smirked. With this trip of his onto the Ancient Battlefield, he had not managed to drain too much blood essence from his enemies, and the Blood Crystal had been feeling very dissatisfied about it.
Now that these people had delivered themselves to him, Xia Fei was of course more than happy to absorb their vitality.
*Whoosh*
Two Xia Feis charged over like bolts of lightning. One was Xia Fei while the other was a clone created with Furball.
On his right hand, Peacock Blue had seized the chance when these new arrivals were still unprepared to coil around one swiftly. Xia Fei raised his arm and thrust the dagger right into this person’s heart!
A rush of energy instantly gushed into Xia Fei’s seventh brain region, a surge of pleasantness washing over him. Even the Blood Crystal seemed to roar in exhilaration.
Compared to grueling training, Xia Fei of course enjoyed this method of stealing other people’s energy to boost his own more. That colorful pearl in his brain rapidly increased in size, and the energy could not only aid Xia Fei in his promotion but could also be unleashed to turn the tables around at critical junctures!
“Xia Fei, I noticed that you’ve become more and more bloodthirsty,” the old demon lord solemnly stated. Xia Fei even devilishly licked his lips after draining that warrior completely. Oro could not help but feel a shiver run down his spine. The more he looked at this young man, the more the latter seemed like a man-eating demon to him.
“What I’m devouring isn’t blood, but energy!”
Xia Fei was invigorated, activating Breath Control as he approached another warrior.
Xia Fei’s superspeed made for an easier time to take advantage of a multi-sided chaotic fight like this. Even if he could barely injure the Blackscaled Axeblade, he could still nimbly dodge and evade its attacks.
Meanwhile, these newcomers were not as fortunate. The humongous body of the Divine Beast thrashing about recklessly was extremely dangerous to them, and they had to protect themselves from Xia Fei’s ambushes even as they guarded against the Divine Beast. All this proved to be anything short of an easy task.
*Spurt!*
Yet another clean stab and the last of these interlopers got reduced to a desiccated corpse, many lifetimes of cultivation absorbed by Xia Fei.
That rainbow energy bead in his brain region was beginning to destabilize, and he was practically overflowing from all that energy!
As time passed, Sezsny’s Law of Mist slowly weakened, while Xia Fei brimmed with the energy he had gained from devouring several warriors of the Demon Race!
“Now’s the time!” A glow in Xia Fei’s eyes shot forth as killing intent pervaded!
“No way! Are you going mad again, boy?!” Perhaps it was because he had been with Xia Fei for so long, but Oro was more and more familiar with how Xia Fei did things, and he instantly understood that the moment Xia Fei made his decision, this young man would play a card without adhering to common sense!
He was someone fond of keeping his trump cards hidden and playing them unconventionally. It was as if everything Xia Fei liked was all against the rules!
Discharge!
A large amount of energy began discharging outward from Xia Fei’s body!
Xia Fei’s footsteps were quick as he shuttled back and forth within the mist, releasing all the energy that had accumulated in his seventh brain region. He even mixed in some of the subversive forces through his Law of Primal Chaos among them!
A miracle occurred!
The moment the energy that Xia Fei discharged made contact with Sezsny’s Law of Mist, a thick smog suddenly billowed! It was like a school of little goldfish bumping into a ferocious school of piranhas, the former hardly able to avoid the latter while quaking in fear!
This was the power of the Law of Primal Chaos! Though there was not much of it, it was enough to ruin this mist that Sezsny was so proud of! After all, under the constant assault from the Blackscaled Axeblade, the mist was already weakening and harder to control. Xia Fei’s use of his Law of Primal Chaos right at this time and release of it over a large area was tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, becoming the final straw that broke Sezny’s proverbial back!
After having been subjected to a series of sophisticated calculations, Sezsny’s advantage was already gone!
A fat, black, extremely terrified, and twisted visage came into view after that thick smog dissipated, and this was none other than the Law Overlord from the Darkpearl Clan, Sezsny!
*Wheeze*
The exasperated Sezsny launched a desperate attack, looking like he was planning to perish with Xia Fei! The fact of the matter was that neither the Divine Beast Blackscaled Axeblade nor Xia Fei was going to let him escape!
Without the mist’s protection, Sezsny was completely exposed to the attacks from both Xia Fei and the Blackscaled Axeblade!
*Rumble!*
Xia Fei did not make any attempt to dodge and directly used his Law of Primal Chaos to meet Sezsny’s Flash Blitz!
His eyes turned red! It had to be stated that the Law of Time was hidden in Sezsny’s hands! It was a lost law, one of the strongest law powers of the God Race! Obtaining it was akin to acquiring the biggest assurance of his future!
It was not just Xia Fei; the Divine Beast Blackscale was even more furious!
Seeing that the beast was nearly upon them, Xia Fei raised his Blood Crystal high. Just as he was about to plunge it right into Sezsny’s chest, all of a sudden, a strange smile cracked across his face.
*Squelch*
The tip of his blade was driven deep into bone! Xia Fei went flying upward along with the other!
*Roar!*
Large amounts of pure energy poured into Xia Fei’s seventh brain region, filling up that rainbow energy ball once again!
A deft sweep of his palm over Sezsny’s body, and he obtained two spatial rings from the latter!
Suddenly—
Just as Xia Fei thought that he was done, the situation changed yet again!
The underground cavern began shaking violently as if the entire planet were about to collapse!
The Divine Beast Blackscaled Axeblade whirled wildly, its entire body resembling a train as it coiled into rings even while the surface of the planet rapidly sank. The big and small rock debris pressed on Xia Fei, making it hard for him to breathe!
In the next second, a large head protruded from the ground. It was a fierce and hateful face with a pearl glistening and sparkling on its forehead, shining brightly in the darkness!
“The head of the beast has appeared!” Oro shouted. “Turns out it’s a Divine Beast! A complete Divine Beast! You must obtain that pearl on its head! It’ll be greatly beneficial to you!”
