Chapter 1123 Borrowed Life!

“Concentrate Souls, seal!” Shu Yuhe bellowed.

At the same time, on another battlefield, a major change was happening to Xiaoxiao and the fiendish blade, Gloomscale!

Xia Fei watched as the two-meter-long, rhombus-shaped fiend blade instantly twisted and became slender. Like an agile snake, it had coiled all over Xiaoxiao’s body.

A black fog then rose, making it impossible to make out what sort of transformation the fiend blade and Xiaoxiao were undergoing. All he could hear were Xiaoxiao’s blood-curdling screams, which could only be pure auditory torture to those nearby.

The eyes of Zesyr Night, who was already dumbfounded by what she had witnessed thus far, widened in fear at this development. She had first been shocked by the realization that Xia Fei was Crafty Approach’s creator, but she very quickly realized that Crafty Approach was not the only thing Xia Fei had mastery of!

Cai Kangnian, a top Great Soul Eater, had accidentally lost his life after being on the receiving end of Xia Fei and his helpers dazzling joint attack! That speed, physical agility, and unstoppable momentum were irrefutable proof of just how formidable Xia Fei was as a warrior!

*Whoosh*

Xia Fei, with already bloodshot eyes, did a beautiful twist in zero gravity, darting about with his feet upon the stars!

The fiendish blade, Nirvana, and the legendary sword, White Dragon’s Screech, were held aloft in the air! He was like a deity that had descended from the heavens!

“KILL HIM!”

Xia Fei bellowed and then, just like before, tossed out Nirvana as if he were throwing a perfect pitch!

Xia Fei was not the only one who would look threatening when he sped up; in fact, Furball, Peacock Blue, and Nirvana, who benefited from his speedster persona, would often look several times more threatening whenever he accelerated!

A blur from in the sky!

Eight million meters per second! Throwing out Nirvana at that speed did not make the weapon just a flying blade but rather a speed demon!

*Bang*

The fiendish blade, Nirvana, sliced through the air!

This crazy speed that Radix was experiencing as he controlled Nirvana was so thrilling he let out a satisfying cry. Even ignoring how sharp the weapon was, just the impact of this weapon when it struck its target could very well shatter the lands and bring ruin to the heavens! Just now, when Xia Fei helped speed up Furball, that little creature directly sent Cai Kangnian flying off the dock and right into space! That was enough to show just how much strength and how great the speed he had exerted. Altogether, it was absolutely frightening!

*Pew*

Nirvana, like a super cannonball, barreled to that mass of black fog! There was no way to tell what happened next because the black fog obscured everything, but the entire repair dock had been pierced through as a result!

Nirvana, along with Xiaoxiao, smashed through one metal floor after another, all the way until they reached space! That was a total distance of several hundred kilometers!

Anyone still alive had covered their ears as they watched the entire sequence transpire with wide eyes full of horror.

Speedsters were truly too frightening! Just tossing a random item while accelerating could result in a meteor strike, which was deadlier than a laser beam!

Several seconds later, Nirvana unsteadily returned, the sheen on its blade dim. It seemed to have been injured.

Xia Fei could not help but arch an eyebrow. He could see that black fog in the distance had become thicker, so much so that even Xia Fei with his Ocular Cognition could not make out what transformation was happening inside.

Speeding over, Xia Fei stretched his hand and grabbed hold of Nirvana. He then asked gravely, “What happened?”

Radix’s voice was very sluggish as he uttered with much effort, “I’m not sure. That fiend blade is in the middle of some peculiar transformation with Xiaoxiao even now. When I went into the fog, I savagely stabbed him with Nirvana, but I found myself losing strength before eventually feeling emptied out, instead.

“Fortunately, you threw me with much force, so the momentum helped me bounced out of the fog. I might as well have found myself stuck to that opponent if not for that. To be honest, it got the feeling that the enemy blade’s devouring capabilities are stronger than Nirvana’s!”

Xia Fei was stunned. At first, the two fiendish blades had been evenly matched. Both weapons could devour their targets’ energy, but neither could absorb the other, and all they could do was clash forcefully.

Alas, in the blink of an eye, this had changed!

Right now, the fiendish blade, Gloomscale, was capable of draining Nirvana, while Nirvana was helpless against Gloomscale. What could he do about this?!

Aside from Nirvana, Xia Fei had no means of dealing with the devouring soul weapon. Furball, Peacock Blue, White Dragon’s Screech, and even the Law of Primal Chaos were no good!

*Boom*

This was when that mass of black fog in the distance suddenly exploded!

The explosion came from within, and as that thick black fog swiftly dissipated, it revealed a very strange form.

‘A human? A weapon?’ Xia Fei inwardly wondered what he should expect as he gritted his teeth.

What he saw next was Xiaoxiao, but the once elegant seventh master had turned into a gruesome monster!

He was now completely naked, his entire body covered in black tattoo that no species known to man had ever borne. What made Xiaoxiao look even weirder was that there was a blade snaking all over his body.

It made it seem like Gloomscale was alive! It now was tens of meters long and was slowly pulsing about Xiaoxiao’s body. It had countless sharp spikes, which were like sharp and narrow spines!

“Gloomscale has changed forms; its combat strength is now stronger than ever! At this point, I can no longer differentiate between Xiaoxiao and the fiend blade. It appears that both have resulted into this strange amalgamation, where the person is the weapon, and the weapon is the person!” Radix said, doing his utmost to gather about his senses.

Radix had felt the air vacating him following that attack earlier. He even felt his soul dissipating; fortunately, he managed to replenish himself with Nirvana’s energy reserve.

Nirvana, which had killed plenty all these years, had accumulated an ocean’s worth of energy. As such, though Gloomscale had drained a portion of its energy reserve, it still had plentiful left. “Awooo!”

Furball, who apparently despised the monstrosity that Xiaoxiao had become, opened his mouth to shoot out an energy beam.

*boom*

The white beam shot across the stars and landed right on Xiaoxiao’s body.

A strange scene unfolded. Gloomscale, which was slowly coiling while pulsing like a python around Xiaoxiao’s body, sped up its movement! It was like a black firewheel as it circled about the seventh young master’s body, but the moment Furball’s beam touched it, Gloomscale shattered bit by bit till it dissipated into motes of light!

*Huhu*

Gluttonous devouring! Gloomscale had absorbed Furball’s energy attack completely, and it took no more than two minutes for it to do so!

o mo

Furball’s eyes were practically spitting flames from anger. When had this distinguished Holy Beast Shatterstar ever suffered such a humiliation? Ignoring the fact that his attack had failed, it even ended up being absorbed by the enemy to strengthen itself. How could Furball stand that?!

Xia Fei placed a hand on Furball’s head and said, “Don’t be rash. You’re an energy type, so a devouring-type weapon is your natural enemy.”

Because it was Xia Fei, Furball no longer howled in anger, but his eyes had almost turned purple. There were not many existences that could suffocate Furball this much, and he could just feel himself on the verge of exploding.

Xia Fei knew this as well and decided not to let Furball continue with its attacks. The devouring kind absorbed energy. Forget a normal attack, even the beast’s Singular Shatterstar Strike might end up being eaten whole by Gloomscale!

This was not a matter of Gloomscale being unkillable but rather of it becoming even stronger by accidentally feeding the dark soul weapon too much energy! Sweat slowly pooled in Xia Fei’s palms. He could feel the situation becoming trickier by the second as the longer he faced this strange fiend blade!

While Xia Fei was caught between a rock and a hard place, Fuchen and Shu Yuhe’s battle had already reached a fevered pitch!

It was crazy!

Both Spiritualists had gone crazy!

The number of soul weapons clashing in the air had surpassed the two-hundred mark at this point!

These were two hundred top-grade soul weapons! Two Spiritualists with wealth accumulated across their lifetimes! Any item they used would be enough to cause devastation on a galactic scale!

With so many soul weapons clashing across this small piece of space, the effect they created far outstripped an army of thousands! It was even more frightening to behold than ten thousand ghosts beating upon the gates of hell!

“Bound Fiend, devour the world!” Fuchen shouted.

Everyone saw as that strange Wraith expanded over a thousand times to become a massive demon that could crush the sea of stars with one foot!

He was like a devil that had assumed his true form!

His two ears covered the heavens, like two golden spears stuck on his head, while sharp and dinosaur-like bone spur could be seen on his back, and this extended all the way to his sword-like tail!

There were nine teeth on both his upper and lower jaws, like a serrated saw that spanned from heaven to earth!

Indubitably, this was no human being!

It turned out that by Fuchen’s exclusive soul servant was not a human to begin with!

Who actually knew what type of monster had a form like Wraith’s! If he wanted to, no one would dare to take a second glance at him! Every time anybody made eye-contact with his evil gaze, it would be like a nightmare!

11*ROAR*!”

Wraith, in his newly enlarged form, promptly spread his two arms and went pouncing on the soul weapons Shu Yuhe had unleashed.

“Dark Soul, break!”

At this time, Shu Yuhe had also howled forcibly, instantaneously picking out a hand crossbow from among his soul weapons; it was none other than that nameless grade 8 dark soul weapon capable of devouring its targets!

*Whoosh*

This was when Wraith went pouncing over, a pitch-black triangular crossbow bolt shooting out!

Wraith’s size had gotten bigger, so this one lunge of his was rather barbaric, yet no one had expected for that dark soul weapon’s triangular arrow to match Wraith’s impetus!

A short and small force went up against that large and violent brute!

*Kaboom*

A huge explosion then echoed about as countless soul weapons broke!

These soul weapons, no longer tethered by the mysterious glowing threads, lost their force as if their lives had been sapped!

“I’m not a Spiritualist of Devouring, but my bound fiend can similarly drain you! Again!” Fuchen’s gray hair floated about, a fierce glare on his face.

He had an Unrestricted Soul-Spirit Mark and knew nothing ‘devouring’, but he had managed to obtain Wraith, a devouring fiend!

As such, the battlefield had become a lot more chaotic. Shu Yuhe had his dark soul weapons, while Fuchen had his soul servant, Wraith! The strength these two wielded were evenly matched!

A high-level soul battle had turned into a tragic soul-weapon-destroying fight!

Every minute, soul weapons from either side were getting destroyed.

This was the treasury either man had accumulated over the course of thousands of years!

In order to emerge victorious today, neither man held back as they emptied out their life assets!

The fierce battle had no end!

Xia Fei barely even had the time to see the frightening scene that Fuchen and Shu Yuhe’s fight had created far out in the stars, for right at this moment, he was in a terrible fix with the fiendish blade, Gloomscale.

Due to Gloomscale’s rare trait of devouring, Xia Fei had no way of launching a direct attack at it. All he could do was rely on his speed to keep circling about, dodging and evading as he tried to fend off the enemy’s crazed assault even for a while!

Suddenly, Xia Fei’s vision chilled. He swept a cold gaze across the hall and saw that there were still tens of people alive in the surroundings. Because these people possessed high cultivation, they had managed to escape the earlier catastrophe and saved themselves from the fiendish blade’s, Gloomscale’s, claws.

“Come with me!” Xia Fei accelerated again as he shouted.

“What for?”

“To kill those people!” Xia Fei declared unreasonably, pointing his White Dragon’s Screech to the surviving warriors around them.

These warriors’ tears threatened to roll down their cheeks. As Xia Fei had been fending off the attacks of Gloomscale, these people had mistakenly taken Xia Fei for an ally, but at this time, he had suddenly turned his head over and pointed his blade to them! How ridiculous was that? They were just watching the fight; how had they offended Xia Fei?

“Right now, I need energy, so I’ll be borrowing all your lives!” Xia Fei swung White Dragon’s Screech viciously as he made this unreasonable demand of his.

Borrow their lives?!

Was that even something one could borrow?!

Zesyr was stunned, then black lines figuratively appeared across her face.

Xia Fei’s movement technique had mesmerized the girl, but his personality…
