The situation was extremely bizarre. The Fiendish Blade Nirvana was acting abnormally, letting out such a shrill cry. However, a high-grade weapon always had a soul of its own, and Nirvana was naturally no exception. It was like something here had provoked it, creating an unbearable rivalry!
“We need to endure this!” Xia Fei bellowed, his eyes turning red from the strain.
Instantly, the power from the Soul Array began to intensify.
Sixty Thunders of War! The Unrestricted Sect’s guaranteed fatal array grew even more powerful at Xia Fei’s behest, and every bolt of lightning that came crashing down pierced through the clouds!
Every single one of the sixty elite warriors from the Skywing Clan represented a core, and sixty of them meant this Soul Array had sixty cores! Every one of them had condensed their strength, and adding on to that the sixty soul weapons they bore formed this large and mobile killing array.
Every one of them felt like they were being hollowed out as their energy left their fingers and was sucked into the soul array through their soul weapons, turning into bolt after bolt of lethal lightning that struck that Evil Spirit.
At the same time, Xia Fei’s Nirvana was pressed against the top of the Evil Spirit’s head, cleaving down desperately!
It had to be said that this Evil Spirit was extremely powerful! Perhaps it was because it was already an unparalleled existence, or perhaps it was the years Xiu Yiyi had spent eating too many potent medicinal treasures that ultimately helped this Evil Spirit become the world-class disaster that it now was. In any case, this Evil Spirit could actually match its strength against the combined efforts from the Skywing Wolfpack’s Soul Array, as well as Nirvana!
*Roar!*
The Evil Spirit howled! Nirvana was letting out a low cry! The Skywing Wolfpack was also shouting as they gave it their all!
Right in that instant, every single person on the battlefield was pushed into a state of desperation!
The sound from Nirvana intensified once more, and at the same time, Xia Fei could very clearly sense the increase in energy that Nirvana was sending to him. Normally, the majority of the energy Nirvana absorbed would be allocated to itself, leaving only a portion to Xia Fei. But this time, for some unknown reason, Nirvana was sending all the energy to Xia Fei!
*Bang!*
Xia Fei could feel the energy system in his body distinctly start to become chaotic. The energy from the Evil Spirit and his own spirit energy were apparently non-complementary, and there was too much of this different energy entering his body. It was causing Xia Fei’s combat power to become erratic! He was even beginning to lose consciousness!
Fiendish energy!
The Evil Spirit’s energy was bolstering Xia Fei’s Fiendish aura greatly!
With a loud rumble, the desiccated wings on his back were extended wildly, and in the span of a few seconds, they actually grew to well over a hundred meters!
At the same time, Xia Fei’s eyes turned blood red!
The Skywing Wolfpack was stunned! Everyone knew that there were only two sets of Fiendwings in the clan. One was with their Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng, and the other was given to the young Xia Fei.
However, none of them had ever seen such huge Fiendwings!
Even Xia Gucheng’s two Fiendwings would not unfurl past ten meters at his full might, but right now Xia Fei had actually reached a wingspan of a hundred meters! This was already well beyond the known limit of Fiendwings!
“What a powerful aura! That rascal Xia Fei has gone insane!” Xia Gucheng shouted, all wide-eyed.
“Arghhhhh!” Xia Fei drew his head back and headbutted that Evil Spirit right in its head!
This was no longer a battle, but a desperate struggle!
Nobody knew just what what had agitated Xia Fei and caused him to use such a barbaric style of fighting!
The Evil Spirit had two horns on its head. These curved horns were currently covered in dark red soul flames.
Xia Fei’s headbutt was done with such great force that one of these two horns actually broke off upon impact, before he slammed right onto his enemy’s head!
It was clear to all watching this scene that the overwhelmingly powerful Fiendish aura had covered Xia Fei entirely, like he was wearing a layer of black tights. Aside from the black fog, there was also a second layer of protection that was made up from a colorful combination of colors, which was none other than the power from his Law of Primal Chaos!
The Evil Spirit was perilously burning its soul, such that anyone that got near it would have to face the Soul Burning, but Xia Fei was able to remain unscathed because of the layers of protections he possessed!
Who knew that the Fiendish aura could be used in such a manner?!
Xia Gucheng was in for yet another shock!
The Soul Array that the Skywing Wolfpack had created was a brainchild of Xia Fei’s. This innovative style of combat that he had created had opened up a whole new avenue in the universe! Similarly, Xia Fei immediately made history again now that he had used his Fiendish aura to imbue his body with a form of protection!
“Awoooo!” The Evil Spirit let out an even louder howl. His voice very nearly tore the Cosmic Gate apart! The pressure on the Skywing Wolfpack was multiplied severalfold, and all they could do in the face of it was devote every ounce of strength they had to hold on, so as to ensure that the Soul Array did not collapse.
*Whoosh!*
The desiccated wings that spanned nearly a hundred meters suddenly drew a beautiful arc and covered the sky! They enveloped the upper half body of that Evil Spirit!
*Kaboom!*
Insane sounds began ringing out. The situation right now was that Xia Fei was using his Fiendwings to encapsulate himself and the Evil Spirit. They were now caught in a close-combat fight!
Weird! Incredibly weird!
Nobody had any idea what was happening within the enclosed space, or just how intense the battle between Xia Fei and the Evil Spirit was. But from the sounds they could constantly hear, it must have been a desperate fight with their lives on the line!
The law of Primal Chaos! Immemorial Mystical Armaments, Fiend Lock, Fiendish Blade; it was like Xia Fei had gone insane and was throwing out all the weapons he had into the fight, directed solely at the Evil Spirit!
The Skywing Wolfpack suddenly realized that the Xia Fei today was just like the devil from the legends! Fiendish aura! Killing intent! Dessicated wings! All these crazy changes had exploded into existence!
Was he still the Xia Fei they were familiar with?!
All of a sudden, the sound of fighting came to an end. They watched as Xia Fei appeared, both legs braced on the Evil Spirit’s shoulder, and he brought down his fists, gloved in Twin Wing Roar, right down the middle, crashing right into the Spirit’s temple! Xia Fei punched right through and into the head of the Evil Spirit with both hands!
Xia Fei extended all of his fingers and clutched onto the Evil Spirit’s skull, letting out a guttural roar as he exerted his strength and heaved!
*Splat!*
Xia Fei pulled off the head of the Evil Spirit! It was an absolutely brutal and terrifying action!
Even the demons of Hell might not compare in their nefariousness to Xia Fei as he was right now!
*Rumble…*
The Evil Spirit had managed to block Xia Fei’s Fiendish Blade the first time around, but this time, Nirvana was able to slash down across the Evil Spirit’s body, cleaving it in twain!
The entire world was cleansed!
The Evil Spirit disappeared quickly as it was absorbed by Nirvana. As it was disposed of, Xia Fei extended his arms out, his eyes still bloody red, and let out an even more terrifying roar than that Evil Spirit had. The sound was like a demon king announcing his prowess to the world!
*Whoosh!*
The Soul Array was lifted, leaving everyone in the Skywing Wolfpack dumbfounded. Even the Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng could not help but admit that Xia Fei had now become the most powerful and maniacal warrior of the Skywing Clan! The combat strength Xia Fei had just demonstrated far outstripped his own!
“How powerful! Is this Xia Fei’s true strength?!”
“How did he suddenly go crazy like that just now? Isn’t Xia Fei always the calm sort, best at calculations and schemes?”
Although surprised, there were plenty among the Skywing Wolfpack who had questions of their own.
But Xia Fei slowly relaxed, wrapping himself in those brutal wings of his. His aura fell rapidly, leaving him looking no different from a fiend awaiting its rebirth.
“Don’t go near him!” Xia Gucheng shouted, stopping the Skywing warriors that wanted to make their way over and congratulate him on the victory. The expression in his eyes was a mix of both shock and suspicion.
*Whoosh!*
Peacock Blue and Terror Genesis appeared in succession. One was a bluegrass, while the other was a black flowing liquid. Both wrapped gently around Xia Fei, forming a second layer of protection over the Fiendwings. For some unknown reason, after Xia Fei had slain the Evil Spirit, it seemed the Immemorial Mystical Armaments had also been stimulated into action. Even the usually disobedient Six Waters of Terror Genesis had appeared to help protect Xia Fei!
The Fiendwings and Mystical Armaments each carried a measure of killing intent, almost as if they were warning everyone around not to approach Xia Fei. Or at least, not for right now!
The Skywing Wolfpack quietly got back into formation, forming a third layer of protection for Xia Fei. No matter what Xia Fei transformed into, at the end of the day he was still their fellow clan brother. They were all exhausted, but no one was willing to leave. Each of them silently paid close attention to Xia Fei, worried for him.
…
The Silver Specter
The series of intense assaults had left everyone in the warship feeling like they were being suffocated. That was especially true when Xia Fei and the Evil Spirit were locked in mortal combat; Xia Fei’s Fiendish aura on top of the Evil Spirit’s Demonic aura became a powerful force that everyone in the ship could feel intensely. None of them could even imagine what was happening outside.
“Just what is going on?!” Xiu Qian shouted while clutching his head in agony, messing up his perfectly-combed hair. He was now regretting allowing Xia Fei to treat Xiu Yiyi. Was there even any Spiritualist out there that could create such a great disturbance during their consultation?!
“Master, Yiyi is still alive,” the pale-faced bodyguard assured him.
Xiu Qian was stunned, asking in a trembling voice, “She’s still alive? Is she healed?”
The pale-faced bodyguard shook his head, “There was a brief moment when Miss Yiyi’s aura grew stronger, but it decreased dramatically soon afterwards. I reckon it must have been what started that huge battle outside. But you need not worry; the battle has already been decided, and it seems like Xia Fei has emerged victorious. In the meantime, while Miss Yiyi is giving off a very weak aura, she is at least a lot more stable than before.”
Xiu Qian exchanged careful looks with his two bodyguards, then heaved a sigh of relief.
It was really stifling that Xia Fei had forced them to stay aboard the warship, not letting them take even a step out. Meanwhile, there were several complications that had happened outside: the Soul Array, a fight to the death, fiendish energy, and all sorts of chaotic elements that they could not understand. How could mending someone’s brain region cause so many problems?
Xiu Qian was fatigued, feeling even more worn out than Xiu Yiyi. Worrying too much had exhausted him. It felt like he had aged several years in the past hour!
“Yiyi, my Yiyi…” Xiu Qian muttered distractedly, his two bodyguards worrying deeply for his well-being.
Instead, it was Furball and Little Goldie who were bouncing all over the place, as if they were celebrating something. Unfortunately, this did not reassure Xiu Qian and the others at all, but instead perplexed them even more.
*Rumble…*
After a good long time, when everyone in the room had managed to calm down for a while, a fierce atmosphere rose up once more, prompting Xiu Qian’s two bodyguards to stand up. They shut their eyes in surprise as they carefully tried to sense it.
…
The two Fiendwings on Xia Fei’s back had wrapped him up, and it looked like he was as asleep as a baby.
No one dared to wake him up, nor did any of them know what was happening.
Xia Fei was curled up in a dark corner of the Cosmic Gate like that, not moving even an inch.
Some time passed and the Skywing Wolfpack felt themselves growing more and more worried. It was at that point Xia Fei’s to Fiendwings began to shudder ever so slightly, as if it was being assaulted by a gust of wind.
*Boom!*
A Soul Mark suddenly appeared in the air.
One, two, three… There were a total of seven sides to it, one more than Xia Fei had before! It began spinning rapidly around Xia Fei.
The Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark was as unusual and mysterious as it always was. Every Skywing present was dazzled just seeing it.
“Great… Great Spiritualist!” Xia Geng shouted, wide-eyed.
