Chapter 827: Triggering thunder from the skies!

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Wu Yuming was practically on the verge of madness!

Xia Fei’s words had struck a very raw nerve of his, and it was even something that he cared about the most, which ignited a fury in him that could not be quenched no matter what.

“YOU MUST DIE TODAY!”

Wu Yuming bellowed as Rending Yang Fire flew high in the air. It swept across this strange piece of land like a burgeoning wave of tsunami!

*Whoosh*

Xia Fei’s figure suddenly disappeared. He had no intention of clashing head on with Wu Yuming’s attack.

Rending Yang Fire became very powerful after its fusion with Wolf Butcher Blaze. Xia Fei still got singed in a few places despite wearing the elite war armor Monohorn Ogre as protection. After all, this was no normal flames but came from a fused Immemorial Mystical Armament, instead!

Worse was the fact that the Rending Yang Fire did not have roots like Peacock Blue. It was able to flare up in mid-air, allowing it to appear anywhere and whenever it wanted! Xia Fei had no way of locating Wu Yuming’s real body through the Rending Yang Fire!

*Kaboom*

The flames were unimaginably intense! An area covering several dozen miles was completely drowned in a sea of flames!

‘Endure! I must endure it right now!’ Xia Fei warned himself.

Actually, what he really wanted was to just dash right over to that doppelganger of Wu Yuming and slay it there and then, but Xia Fei was well aware that dashing right through the Rending Yang Fire’s encirclement would only injure him. Besides, He knew that the Wu Yuming he saw was no more than a puppet and that another one would just take its place even if he killed it!

*Whoosh*

The speedster Xia Fei circled around Wu Yuming’s doppelganger like a bolt of lightning, all the while pondering to himself just how he could slay the puppet without expending too much energy in doing so.

Suddenly, Xia Fei discovered a gap in the intense conflagration, and with a burst of strength to his feet, he went dashing right to it!

Just as he was less than a mile away from Wu Yuming’s doppelganger, the flames in front him surged to cover the sky; he could feel both the chill and the heat emanating forth, which made the Rending Yang Fire seem very strange.

“Peacock Blue!”

*Whizz*

Peacock Blue came bursting out upon being called. It shrugged off the intense flames that could cook it instantly and reached out into the inferno with a long leaf!

Peacock Blue directly grabbed Wu Yuming’s puppet and, with a forceful constriction, reduced that wooden doppelganger into pieces!

*Kaboom*

Before Xia Fei could feel glad, a blue lightning came streaking down from the heavens! It exploded somewhere not too far from where Xia Fei was standing!

“Crafty Approach!”

Xia Fei did a very agile turn at high speed, avoiding that lightning strike and also the enveloping flames, and came charging out of the sea of fire!

“Careful! The lightning on this planet is very powerful! It’s another formidable threat aside from the Rending Yang Fire!” Oro rumbled. They were in the heart of a universal electromagnetic storm, after all, so this planet was as frightening as the depths of hell, all wrapped up in this strange weather that covered the surface, with occasionally abrupt flashes of lightning! Anyone stuck on this planet would also need to devote one hundred twenty percent of their concentration to this battle!

“I got it!” Xia Fei nodded in acknowledgement.

This was when Wu Yuming’s new doppelganger appeared once more. The Law of Puppetry was very magical; in terms of the doppelganger’s speed and physical strength, neither was anything different from his actual self. It would even occasionally unleash several law attacks, causing Xia Fei quite a lot of trouble.

“He’s really like an unkillable cockroach!” Xia Fei cursed with a grim expression on his face.

The battle started to shift toward an unfavorable direction for Xia Fei. Facing off against the fused Immemorial Mystical Armament, not only was it a headache for Xia Fei, even Furball found it daunting.

Immemorial Mystical Armaments were on the same level as Holy Beasts, after all; so if Furball were to force his way into the sea of flames, he would also be hurt by it. Xia Fei had no wish to let such a thing happen, though, as Furball possessed the powerful Singular Shatterstar Strike! It was strong enough to obliterate planets! It was considered the most powerful trump card among the tricks held by Xia Fei up his sleeves.

Though Furball would not lose his life when unleashing the Singular Shatterstar Strike, the loss of energy was still unavoidable. Furthermore, it had only been barely a handful of months since its last Singular Shatterstar Strike. Xia Fei had fed Furball plenty of crystals ever since, but his pet was still quite a distance away from full recovery.

Peacock Blue curled in agony. It had recklessly reached into the sea of fire to destroy Wu Yuming’s doppelganger just now, and even the most tenacious weed in the entire universe was severely damaged from this act. Everyone knew that plants were most afraid of being cooked by intense flames or cut by the sharpess metal. Either could definitely be considered as natural enemies of plants!

The fused Rending Yang Fire was an immense threat to Peacock Blue. Right now, countless grass blades of Peacock Blue had all but been burned to crisp; it was fortunate that it was a mystical armament fused with two more Immemorial Mystical Armaments. Particularly, it was thanks to the Scattered Star Chrysanthemum that Peacock Blue had been made even tougher than before. Against the unrelenting flames of Rending Yang Fire, though Peacock was having a very rough time, it was not to the point where this bluegrass would be completely powerless.

…….

Somewhere far away, Wu Yuming’s expression turned dark. From his point of view, he found Xia Fei to be similarly difficult to deal with. Though the Rending Yang Fire was a direct counter to Peacock Blue, it was nevertheless unable to destroy the plant completely. There was also Furball. That Holy Beast could move at great speeds and was equally as cunning as Xia Fei. Though the beast was not recklessly running rampantly in every direction, Wu Yuming still could not afford for Furball to be given the chance to attack.

The moment there was a gap exposed, Furball would immediately dash in and shred Wu Yuming’s doppelganger into pieces!

Finally, there was Xia Fei’s superspeed. From the start of the battle until this point, though Wu Yuming held the advantage, he was actually helpless against him. This was far from what Wu Yuming had hoped. After all, what he wanted was for Xia Fei to die! The worse death, the better!

Brushing his finger across his spatial ring, Wu Yuming took out an entire row of wooden dolls, numbering over a hundred!

“Kill him all at one go!” Wu Yuming hissed through gritted teeth.

He picked up one of these dolls and muttered some words.

*Zing*

The wooden doll disappeared from his hands, and another doppelganger appeared on the battlefield! Using the Law of Spatial Compaction, he came bearing down on Xia Fei!

It had to be said that the Law of Puppetry Wu Yuming possessed was truly powerful. Not only could he create an identical copy of himself to take his place, these duplicates also demonstrated very decent combat strength. While they were not as powerful as Wu Yuming himself, their advantage lay in their numbers!

Wu Yuming rested for a while. Unleashing a puppet expended quite a bit of his energy, and he also needed to use Origin Crystals to replenish what he had lost while he kept sending more of his puppets out.

*Zing*

*Zing*

As more and more enemies appeared on the battlefield, the situation reached critical point!

At the moment, Xia Fei was not fending off just Wu Yuming alone but also the many doppelgangers he had animated. Furthermore, there was still the Rending Yang Fire and the raging inferno it had conjured!

The five existing types of Immemorial Mystical Armaments each had their respective traits and attributes.

Just like how Xia Fei’s Peacock Blue was plant type, tenacious and persevering, Wu Yuming’s flame type Rending Yang Fire was violent and fierce!

The intense fire, which was formless, burned all the natural wildlife around them!

It lacked the tenacity of Peacock Blue, but it was practically everywhere!

Xia Fei had uncharacteristically chosen not to retaliate; even Furball was suppressing himself despite his eagerness to lend a hand. It seemed as if they were waiting for something, intentionally letting themselves get surrounded by the countless puppets Wu Yuming had sent out.

*Kaboom*

As the number of puppets increased, their attacks became even more concentrated! Xia Fei was like a wily loach, flitting left and right within the joint encirclement of the Rending Yang Fire and the puppets.

In addition to this, no matter how terrible the situation looked, Xia Fei had never once left his small area and just persevered to take on the countless enemies around him.

“What in the world are you doing! Wu Yuming has too many puppets! You should be luring them into different places, splitting them up before taking them all down one by one!” Oro yelled.

The present state of fighting was extremely disadvantageous to Xia Fei. The attacks of the enemy had been coming one after another, with hardly any room to breathe! There was no way Xia Fei could hold out for long if he solely relied on his superior physical agility and speed!

Xia Fei ignored Oro’s suggestion. His eyes were cold as he insisted on his own tactic sans a hint of hesitation!

Furball, who was feeling nervous, actually began to produce keening sounds!

This had been quite an aggravating battle for the Holy Beast Shatterstar. The Rending Yang Fire was able to harm him, and so Furball was fighting somewhat over cautiously and was hardly having an enjoyable time!

Xia Fei had even started to focus on defense instead of offense, and at the same time, he had forbidden Furball from attacking. As such, this made Furball twice as infuriated. He really wanted to fight and even had the intention of unleashing his Singular Shatterstar Strike!

Xia Fei very rudely stopped the beast, getting him to keep moving in the periphery but never allowing him to unleash a powerful counterattack!

The situation was dire!

Over a hundred puppets were all over this small region, bombarding Xia Fei wildly. The Immemorial Mystical Armament Rending Yang Fire was also very aggressive, unwilling to let up in its assault on Xia Fei.

Xia Fei seemed to be dancing on a knife’s edge; there were even times when he found himself completely surrounded by Rending Yang Fire and barely managed to escape the attacks besieging him from all sides through his speed and agility!

In the blink of an eye, the number of puppets on the battlefield had gone past one hundred seventeen! Flames raged everywhere, with enemies all around him!

An immensely loud explosion thundered!

Forget Xia Fei who was in the thick of it; even Oro could feel the great pressure from this explosion!

“Let me see how you’re going to die today!” From a good distance, Wu Yuming’s countenance turned savage as he growled.

With his two hands doing a quick flip, he did some inexplicable and strange motions, which rapidly sent his law force outward.

“Hundred Thousand Ghouls Knocking at the Gates! Group attack!”

Following his hoarse command, the one hundred seventeen puppets all acted simultaneously!

They gathered law force and attempted to coordinate with the Immemorial Mystical Armament Rending Yang Fire to blast out an attack, which could sweep everything and directly destroy Xia Fei!

What made anyone watching feel clueless about this was that Xia Fei had begun to make his move at this moment as well!

“Dragonscale Hectoslasher!

“Ode of Hundred Spirits!”

Both psychokinetic weapons flew in the air!

Truly, they flew toward the dark and stormy clouds hanging in the sky without missing a beat!

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” Oro was dumbfounded by the scene unfolding before his eyes.

He saw as those two weapons rose into the dark clouds instantly, getting into contact with the lightning, and just like a murder of crows, they began circling in the sky!

Metal conducted electricity! The Ode of Hundred Spirits, which was made of darkness metal, was the best friend of this electromagnetic storm!

The black clouds gathered very quickly, and the lightning also swiftly congregated!

In no time at all, a very frightening scene appeared above Xia Fei!

A crack of thunder and a bright flash of lightning! It was as if armageddon was about to descend on this planet!

Oro’s eyes widened in disbelief. With how things had happened, he now understood that Xia Fei was attempting to take advantage of this terrain!

He wanted to bring the static electricity in the atmosphere, which had accumulated for a very long time, crashing down! It was an absolutely fatal strike!

Wu Yuming had a fire type mystical armament, so Xia Fei decided to trigger the thunder from the skies!

He had intricately planned everything that was to happen!

By not retaliating despite being surrounded and saving his energy, Xia Fei’s method caused Wu Yuming’s self-confidence to soar. Therefore, he did not hold back in animating many of his puppets and sent them all out!

This had been a scheme!

Xia Fei did not wish to use too much energy, so he decided to draw the lightning from the skies and eliminate all of Wu Yuming’s doppelgangers in one fell swoop!

The moment he was without a single puppet, he would have nothing else to harass Xia Fei with!

*Kaboom*

The electricity got conducted by the metal, forming a bright and erratic mass of electric glow in mid-air!

Xia Fei had a devilish sneer on his face, as this was precisely the moment he had been waiting for!

With a wave of his arm—

As if the lightning had taken Xia Fei as the conductor, all followed the two psychokinetic weapons when they careened through the air and dove right down!

There were no words to describe this scene! Even a million bolts of lightning streaking through the sky would not be as majestic a sight as this!

The entire planet was lit up in bright lights. eerie white glows enveloping the land!

Following the perfect execution of an intricate plan built upon patient forbearance, everything came to an explosive head at the very last second!

Xia Fei did not have any fire type mystical armament, but he had managed to draw the lightning in the skies down to earth!

He was fighting fire with fire!
