Chapter 998: Barging into the Temple of Many Gods
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Xia Fei suddenly realized that Hosu was actually holding onto a White Flamingo!
Slightly taken aback, Xia Fei asked quickly, “Just what trouble is the Grand Ancestor in? Why do you have a White Flamingo?! That’s a top-grade communication device of the Skywing Clan!”
Hosu answered, “I met up with Xia Gucheng long ago! I admired his personality greatly, which was why I helped him fabricate twelve White Flamingos using the technology that came from the Ark, so that he could use them and communicate with his fellow clansmen, while I kept one for myself as well!
“I think it must be because you were put in harm’s way by the Founders, so Xia Gucheng is now charging into the Temple of Many Gods in a fit of rage, intending on fighting it out with Constant and the other Founders with him! What should we do now?!”
Xia Fei was stunned. So it turned out that the Grand Ancestor and Hosu had already met before!...
Radix was curious, “What’s the problem? Now that Xia Fei has already obtained his first Soul Mark, there’s no need for you to hide your identity any longer. You can just make your way there right now and kill off those little Founders! With your cultivation, that isn’t impossible!”
Hosu went pale. “Had this been two days ago, I of course could really just go ahead and do it, unafraid of the Inverse finding out, and attack with my full strength.
“But you must know that Xia Fei doesn’t have the reborn ability right now! Meanwhile, I’ve yet to get a hold of the Overcast Wind Mace! Without the Overcast Wind Mace, there’s no way for me to obtain Soul Power, and I can only recover my cultivation by slowly accumulating it over time! I’ll have to expend quite a lot of my hard-to-come-by energy if I take out a Superior Founder of Constant’s caliber!
“What I’m worried about has never been these Founders, but the Inverse! If I were to make my move against the Temple of Many Gods, wiping out Constant and the other Founders, just what will happen when the Inverse come invading through the Cosmic Gate?!”
Radix was shocked as he exclaimed, “So you’ve already reached the critical point?!”
Xia Fei had no idea what this critical point was, but the rapid conversation between Hosu and Radix made it impossible for him to interject and ask.
“Yes, I’ve already gathered the strength for me to Seal the Cosmic Gate once more! It’s enough to achieve 100% energy balance! With our current strength, we still lack a way of breaking through the Cosmic Gate and making our way back to the clan. After all, back when it was you, me and the Young Master together, along with the power of the Soul Ship Ark, we still failed to escape from the Inverse hunting us down! Now that Xia Fei had only just activated his Soul Mark, and you’ve lost the Ark, I’m afraid our chances of taking on the Inverse are slim to none.
“That is why I must maintain myself at a 100% state of energy balance, so in the event of a worst case scenario, I’ll be able to seal off the Cosmic Gate and give Xia Fei enough breathing space to let him use what time I can buy him to further his Soul Arts so that we can make a renewed push once again!
“You know as well as I do that the moment we get past the Cosmic Gate, we’ll be in a territory that is completely dominated by the Inverse. I’m afraid there’s no way for Xia Fei to step out in that Dark Galaxy with his present capabilities!”
Hosu was speaking truthfully. As a personal bodyguard to an Auroran, his every consideration was for Xia Fei’s well-being, and if helping the Skywing Clan clashed with his conservation of energy to protect Xia Fei, Hosu would of course choose the latter.
*Swipe*
That was when Xia Fei waved his arm and interrupted the conversation between Hosu and Radix, “I understand now. Because of the Ark’s explosion, Hosu has lost his weapon, and so he isn’t able to rapidly recover his energy. Meanwhile, the Sealing of the Cosmic Gate and dealing with the Inverse requires a huge reserve of energy, which is why you don’t wish to use up the energy that you had gathered with so much difficulty, right?”
Hosu nodded hurriedly, “That is very astute of you, Little Young Master. Those Inverse are really hard to deal with, and the safest solution is to Seal up the Cosmic Gate once more, and for us to make our trip back to the Aurora Clan after we’ve ensured we have the ability to move through the Dark Galaxy the Inverse have under control.”
Xia Fei grit his teeth and shouted, “That’s just your opinion, and you never consulted me on my thoughts about that! Who said that yours truly wants to head back to the Aurora Clan?!”
...
The Temple of Many Gods, the place where the Founders cultivated and lived their lives...
All of a sudden, a huge explosion was heard. The secret palace that symbolized the Founders’ supreme authority was under siege!
Xia Gucheng led his five Superior Law Gods from the Skywing Clan, blasted right through the towering outer white walls, and barged right in!
“Skywing business! Those unconcerned can scram!” the Skywing wolfpack shouted loudly.
This was not just a simple slogan, but a declaration of war from the Demon-Sealing Fiendish Blade!
When this line was uttered, it meant no matter who they were up against, the Skywing Clan would be sure to eradicate them!
Their speed was double that of light!
Xia Gucheng took the lead like the tip of a king’s sword, viciously crashing right into the majestic structure, his two arms held up high, as if he was ready to slam down Mjolnir!
*rumble*
His fists shook the very stars! It was like a violent hammer pummeling down onto steel, turning the Temple of Many Gods into rubble!
Fragments of stone went flying in every direction! A powerful shockwave rocked the huge temple as the epicenter, spreading out everywhere and formed a beautiful aftershock, like the ripples created when a boulder was tossed into a calm lake, undulating incessantly!
It was a lovely sight, but the expression on the faces of old Crane and the other two Founders present changed greatly with that attack!
Vista bit his lips and said in a low voice,”There’s no way of putting the arrow back once it is unleashed! How ruthless and fierce Xia Gucheng is! He ruined the temple with just one punch, and isn’t giving himself or any of us any way to back out from here on out!”
Who said that the Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng did not understand strategy? He knew very well that although the Skywings were in an alliance with the three Founders, that did not mean that they had the decisiveness inherent in the Demon-Sealing Fiendish Blade!
Xia Fei had intentionally struck with all his strength and smashed apart the temple; this way, the Founders that were taking their lead from Constant would hate Xia Gucheng, Old Crane, and the others to their core, and that would leave no room for hesitation for Crane and the others! They had to rally with Xia Gucheng and throw themselves at the other seven Founders to the death!
At this moment, the Skywings and the other three Founders were all bound up together, and there was no retreat!
As the Temple of Many Gods crumbled, the final flicker of hope in Crane’s and the others’ hearts was extinguished, and they instead felt a lot more at ease.
*Boom!*
A halo appeared, descending from the sky like a ring of extinction!
Five experts stood out in the ruins of the Temple of Many Gods, each and every one of them with a bewildered look in their eyes, perplexed at the situation.
Given the strength of these individuals, they were well aware that Xia Gucheng was coming to knock on their front door, looking to kill them, so they had not stepped out of the temple to welcome the confrontation. Instead, they had adopted the tactic of guarding the tree and waiting for the hare: they were waiting for Xia Gucheng to attack inside the temple!
But how could they have expected that Xia Gucheng would actually act so tyrannically! He did not even enter the temple and just attacked with his fists, directly bringing the temple crashing down!
As such, the five Founders had a bit of dust and dirt on their faces, and were standing up from the rubble with livid expressions.
“Crane! Ocean! Vista! Are the three of you intending to disregard our old friendship and break away from us?!”
The one speaking was Youth, the only woman out of the thirteen Founders. Her voice was sharp, and her chin was sharper. Her round eyes still had ridiculously long eyelashes. It was easy for anyone in the Alliance to think of a beautiful femme fatale from the stories, except this femme fatale was a bit in a frenzy, her head of yellow hair all in a mess.
Old Crane was grinding his teeth, but he showed the demeanor of a Founder with a shout, “Breaking away? Well said! That’s a term that I’ve kept inside me for all these years, and now you’re the one saying it for me today!
“All those years back, I should have fought you to the death when you all forced the deaths of the disciples we raised with our own hands! But I endured it back then, and later, when you all began colluding with the Dark lifeforms to serve the Inverse, I ought to have decided to break away with you all then, too, but I endured once again. Yore and Lingua’s extended isolation, Solo leaving for the stars: you’re the ones who caused these things to happen, as well!
“I shall be collecting on these debts today!
After saying this, the sound of disdainful laughter rang out as the femme fatale Youth mockingly tittered, “None of you dared to in the past, yet now you’ve found your balls after allying with the Skywings? Do you all think that you stand a chance just because Constant isn’t here today?
“What a cosmic joke! Don’t forget, Solo isn’t with you, and neither are Yore and Lingua! Even if you have Xia Gucheng on your side, that’s merely four Founders!”
*Zing!*
The color on Crane’s face turned livid. All those years back, he did not dare go against Constant, and this old shrew Youth had gotten a hold of this fact and hit him where it hurt. Even though he was now on the path of going against Constant, his cowardice all those years back was irreparable. Youth had held onto this point and was cruelly shaming him for it.
Even as Youth was gloating over that, the silent Xia Gucheng and the five Superior Law Gods under his command abruptly made their move!
This was a sudden attack that no one had expected; Xia Gucheng struck with such promptness and speed that he appeared among the five enemy Founders in the blink of an eye.
Xia Gucheng was an expert that knew how to seize the moment on the battlefield! The moment he realized that the most powerful Founder, Constant, was not among them, he instantly understood that today was his chance! As long as he could slay the five people in front of him, even if the powerful Constant were to return, he would still be able to leverage his numerical advantage to take on Constant on a more even ground!
Xia Gucheng had allowed old Crane to continue in his back and forth with Youth, capitalizing on this moment when their guard was down to zip out with his Skywing Wolfpack and strike!
Persimmons needed to be picked with gentle hands, just as how honest men will always be bullied. Xia Fei was not the only one who understood the logic of this saying, his Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng comprehended it as well!
His target appeared to be the five Founders, when he was actually going for the heavily-injured Laughter!
*Whoosh*
With a speed that surpassed light, he was there in a flash!
The five Skywing Superior Law Gods formed a Super Wolfpack, and the Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng took up the reins of Xia Fei’s job, becoming the Lone Wolf for this Wolfpack Formation!
Xia Fei’s existence had made it so that the Lone Wolf position was ever present with the Wolfpack Formation, and Xia Gucheng realized that this tactic of the roaming ranger was highly effective, elevating the already exceptionally dangerous Wolfpack Formation to even greater heights! As such, he had decided to continue implementing this as part of their engagement tactics, becoming the killer trump card of the Demon-Sealing Fiendish Blade!
Xia Fei was much lower Level than Xia Gucheng, and was already able to increase the strength of the Wolfpack Formation several-fold, not to mention now that the Lone Wolf was now Xia Gucheng, with his speed twice that of light!
Split up!
Group up!
Blitz!
The Wolfpack Formation made up of Law Gods as well as the Founder Xia Gucheng struck like a thunderbolt!
In the blink of an eye, the Wolfpack Formation had come together and trapped Smile in their midst, allowing Xia Gucheng to charge into the middle subsequently and slay the injured Founder!
*Rumble*
What was already a killer punch became even more powerful with the assistance from Xia Gucheng’s superspeed!
This one punch directly shattered Smile’s ribcage! Blood splattered everywhere!
It was a most violent method, borne from the most unimaginable opportunity!
This was the prowess of the Demon-Sealing Fiendish Blade at its very limit!
After achieving their goal with one attack, the Skywing Wolfpack did not overstay their welcome, and swiftly relied on their speed advantage to retreat back to safety, standing across from their enemies once again.
The five Superior Law Gods lived up to their names as the most powerful trump card Xia Gucheng had prepared for the Skywings! Their efficiency and flawless coordination left the Founders wide-eyed and utterly bewildered.
“And how many are we up against now?” Xia Gucheng goaded them as he pointed with one hand.
What a sinister Grand Ancestor, engaging in a psychological battle after his successful ambush!
