Chapter 1255: Snatching Soul Weapons!

Seeing Xia Fei, Furball and Little Goldie came pouncing over. They had seen Xia Fei get swallowed up by the ground just now, and the two had panicked instantly.

Xia Fei took the white scrap of cloth from Little Goldie’s mouth and examined it closely. He then asked Radix, “Do you see anything?”

“The texture seems to be very strange, almost as if its gradually weakening,” Radix gasped.

Xia Fei nodded and did not say another word. Over the course of several minutes, the white scrap of cloth turned into very ordinary fibers, and with a light rub from Xia Fei’s hands, it was turned into dust.

Evidently that person had passed through the layer of magma through their own efforts, and their clothes had been a miraculously impregnable piece of equipment. But the moment it was no longer on that person, it returned back to its original essence, becoming nothing more than some ordinary cloth. Who really knew just how sharp those little teeth of Little Goldie’s mouth were, actually able to tear off a piece of clothes that could resist magma. In fact, even the level of craziness it demonstrated in successfully attempting that was worth praise in itself!

Xia Fei tried to wear the Flying Eagleplume War Armor.

This was hard armor, which would feel very uncomfortable when worn, especially for a speedster like Xia Fei.

However, Flying Eagleplume had amazingly high defensive strength, and it was better to wear it and sacrifice some speed and comfort if it meant greater survivability when facing off against powerful foes.

Most likely this Flying Eagleplume was one of the war armors that the Broken Wing Sky Devil had used. The historical records had very clearly stated that the Broken Wing Sky Devil Paletooth was a speedster; but as for just how fast he really was, it seemed that was an answer only people who had seen him in person knew.

An expert speedster would not normally wear hard armor; if that was what Paletooth had done, so too should Xua Fei!

There was originally a trace of broken wings behind Flying Eagleplume, but those traces disappeared when Xia Fei donned it himself. There were too many miraculous things pertaining to the Four Great Sky Devils. Xia Fei could not make sense of them, and he could not be bothered to spend more time trying to figure them out.

“Are you ready? There’s still an Evil Shadow Dragoon waiting for us outside,” Xia Fei said with a smile.

Immediately, Furball and Little Goldie let loose roars in unison. Ever since they had fought their way into the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s tomb, these two had been choked with resentment. They were planning to find someone to beat up, and neither of them cared that they would be taking on a Dragoon or not!

*Rumble!*

Peacock Blue had already half-recovered and was like a huge octopus, using its tentacles to tear apart the Sky Devil Tomb!

Ling Boyu, who had been bored waiting for Xia Fei to come out, was immensely shocked. He had considered the possibility of Xia Fei getting out, but never had he imagined it would be in such a startling fashion!

*Whoosh!*

Xia Fei landed on the ground and continued forward. He completely ignored the destruction of the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Tomb. Furball had always been one to hold a grudge, and he felt that being trapped underground had been a very embarrassing matter. He had dragged Little Goldie along to ruin the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Tomb!

Little Goldie had always been a little on the dull side, so he was most obedient toward Furball, aside from Xia Fei. These two worked together right away, intent on bringing down the Sky Devil’s Tomb!

*Boom!*

A chunk of the head of a great stone sculpture of the Broken Wing Sky Devil flew across the sky, before finally landing at the feet of Ling Boyu. He stared at Sky Devil’s head for several seconds before yelling, “You… You’ve ruined the Sky Devil Tomb?!”

Xia Fei nodded nonchalantly, “That’s right, I did.”

The eyes behind Ling Boyu’s mask glared at Xia Fei, like he was looking at a monster.

Countless Annihilators had died or gone insane when trespassing in the Sky Devil Cenotaphs years back. Not only had Xia Fei gotten out of the place completely intact, he had even destroyed the Sky Devil Tomb!

This was not simply insane in Ling Boyu’s eyes, but downright perverse!

Speaking of which, Xia Fei had actually been wronged here; though he had used a fairly violent method to get out of the Tomb, he did not order Furball to destroy the place. It was completely done by Furball being too vengeful, and he had done it of his own volition.

But Furball was Xia Fei’s exclusive Holy Beast. Added to the unreasonable attitude that Xia Fei had, of course the place would be devastated! Xia Fei had taken the burden of it all!

*Whoosh!*

Ling Boyu took a step back, his eyes erratic.

All of a sudden, a soul weapon appeared in his hand. It was nothing too huge, but it was as quick as lightning!

This flash was but an instant, and Xia Fei ought to be able to evade it with just his Crafty Approach and speed, but he had an idea. He proceeded to do something really crazy: Not only did he not evade the attack, he instead puffed out his chest and took the brunt of it, letting that flash of light strike his chest.

*Ping!*

A crisp sound rang out, and Xia Fei was still standing there, his back straight, wearing a slight smile on his face. An Annihilator-grade weapon had struck him, yet he remained completely uninjured!

This greatly unsettled Ling Boyu! He was breaking out in cold sweat behind his mask.

He watched Xia Fei lift a hand, raising a rhombus-shaped soul weapon that resembled a lotus seed. He smirked, “Nice. An Annihilator-grade soul weapon? Thanks.”

Ling Boyu’s eyes widened as he barked out in anger, “That’s my Dark Sorrow Black Sleeve Lotus!”

Ling Boyu was cursing Xia Fei’s ancestors when the latter managed to block his attack just now, but he never imagined that Xia Fei would be so quick as to snatch a soul weapon off him in the time that Flying Eagleplume repelled his attack!

“Oh, so this thing is called Dark Sorrow Black Sleeve Lotus. Not bad, not bad indeed,” Xia Fei continued to muse.

With that, Xia Fei seized that moment when Ling Boyu was startled to come dashing right over. He even had Fiend Lock form a half moon in the air, and stabbed the Fiendish Blade Nirvana right at Ling Boyu’s chest. It was a frontal assault!

Ling Boyu lived up to his reputation as an Annihilator-grade expert. Dropping into a crouch, he pulled out that sword with a myriad of transformations again!

Forward, back, left, and right! This soul sword attacked from every possible angle!

Facing an attack with an attack of his own!

As an expert, he knew that Xia Fei would surely hide a secret technique when he attacked, so he decided to match the attack in an effort to force Xia Fei to retreat!

Crafty Approach!

Origin of Heaven!

Xia Fei used these two moves at the same time as he sped over. Crafty Approach aided Xia Fei in evading the attack, while Origin of Heaven helped Xia Fei search for something.

“Right there!” Xia Fei bellowed. He leaped up high and took the attack coming right at him!

*Clank*

This lunge struck Xia Fei right in his chest!

“Got him!” Ling Boyu shouted. his hands clenched tightly. For some unknown reason, though Xia Fei clearly just had a six-sided Soul Mark, he felt happier having successfully struck him than after stabbing an Annihilator-tier warrior.

But his happiness soon turned into mortification!

Xia Fei once more fell from mid-air without a scratch, and now he had another Annihilator grade soul weapon in his hand! It turned out that he had used Origin of Heaven to find which soul weapon was real, all for the sake of snatching away the phantasmic soul sword from Ling Boyu!

“A soul sword that has the phantasmic realization trait. As an Evil Shadow Dragoon, you’ve got far more fun toys than yours truly,” Xia Fei smirked as he made an off-handed remark.

“Just how are you doing this?! Why is my Betwixt Floraumbra unable to hurt you?!” Ling Boyu shouted hoarsely, almost as if he was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

As an Annihilator-tier expert, and an esteemed Dragoon, to boot! To let Xia Fei steal his soul weapons twice was utterly humiliating to Ling Boyu!

A warrior going up against a warrior weaker than them, unable to guard their own soul weapon? It was far too embarrassing! Absolutely mortifying!

“Betwixt Floraumbra?” Xia Fei flourished the long and slender soul sword. “It moves like a shadow, inescapable, flitting in between vegetation. The name is rather poetic.”

Changing the topic, Xia Fei tapped Ling Boyu with Betwixt Floraumbra lightly . The tip gave off a low hum and Xia Fei said, “This soul sword has a great name. It shall belong to me from today onward!”

*Whoosh!*

Ling Boyu was appalled!

Only half a day had passed! When Xia Fei first entered the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Tomb, the younger man was not his match, but he was now just being toyed around with Xia Fei after getting out!

His soul weapon not being able to injure Xia Fei was already mystifying enough, but Xia Fei had actually used the opportunity to snatch his soul weapons! This was completely unreasonable! Even if Xia Fei could take on people beyond his level, there was no way he could have made such a leap to his level from being a level 6 Spiritualist!

Besides, in Ling Boyu’s eyes, there had not been any changes with Xia Fei from when he first entered the Tomb. He still only had six Soul Marks!

How was he to know that the Law of Primal Chaos had successfully been absorbed into Xia Fei’s Soul Mark by now! This used Dark Energy to substantially increase his attack power!

Furthermore, this was a forced fusion between the human and Fiend legacies. It was essentially a unique existence in itself!

Even if he did not have the impregnable Flying Eagleplume that had once belonged to the Broken Wing Sky Devil Paletooth, Xia Fei would at least be able to fight Ling Boyu to a statemale with just his strength alone! The Xia Fei right now might not be an Annihilator, but he already possessed the combat strength of one!

The situation was beginning to look dire for Ling Boyu. He even entertained the thought of retreating, but it was just too bad that even attempting to do so when facing a speedster like Xia Fei would be extremely difficult without Xia Fei revealing some major flaw. Ling Boyu really had no choice but to grit his teeth and fight with Xia Fei to the death! Today, right here in this Fiend city! Right beside the Cenotaph of the Broken Wing Sky Devil Paletooth!

“Don’t gloat just yet! You’re nothing more than a Neophyte Dragoon, while I’m already a formal Dragoon, affiliated to the Devil Shadow Dragoons!” Ling Boyu bellowed.

Suddenly, several Annihilator-grade soul weapons appeared in his hands! Each and every one of them was no weaker than Betwist Floraumbra or Dark Sorrow Black Sleeve Lotus.

Members of the Devil Shadow Dragoon had access to three whole warehouses loaded with soul weapons once owned by the Fiends. That was also why every devil Shadow Dragoon would not fret over their soul weapons. Seeing as how a Neophyte Dragoon like Xia Fei was only given three, one could only imagine how many more a formal member would have access to.

Furthermore, Ling Boyu was someone with a similar habit to Xia Fei: he was someone who enjoyed relying on powerful weapons to target his enemies!

Even Xia Fei himself had no idea just how many weapons he had stored in his spatial ring Peak Rainbow. All he knew was that whenever he was in a pinch, he would always be able to pull out a treasure and deal a fatal blow to his enemies.

Ling Boyu also had another habit, and that was his penchant to bully others due to how many more high-grade weapons he had in his possession.

Unfortunately for him, Ling Boyu had encountered the ancestor of Annihilator-grade soul armors!

Xia Fei was wearing the war armor of the Broken Wing Sky Devil Paletooth! Every weapon Ling Boyu unleashed was equivalent to gifting Xia Fei a present each time!

*Boom!*

In the blink of an eye, Xia Fei had gained a miniature hexagonal hammer. Just now, Ling Boyu had only managed to get close to the slippery Xia Fei, and his heart was battered by the result! He wondered to himself, ‘If ranged attacks do not work, then would close combat be better?’

But how could he know that Xia Fei would undergo an insane change after! Not only was Xia Fei unharmed, Xia Fei had even felt even more goodness coming from Ling Boyu! Xia Fei jumped and snatched away three Annihilator-grade soul weapons from Ling Boyu.

“I can give this hammer to Xia Guanghai. Oh right, what’s its name?” Xia Fei asked as he examined the weapon.

Humiliation!

Absolute humiliation!

As the saying went: Once bitten, twice shy! Xia Fei had managed to snatch three soul weapons from Ling Boyu consecutively. Ling Boyu was so angry that he was letting loose a litany of curses the moment he realized it!
