Chapter 1624: Rain of Spiritual Stones
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As Chen Xiaobei said, he had not encountered a decent opponent for a while now.
Because he had powerful items and sufficient Spiritual Stones, many of the opponents he encountered were incompetent weaklings.
Wei Zhonglie however, was a totally different animal all together!
This old thing had the Flaming Tiger Divine Saber which could break the binding of the Blood God’s Deity-Killing painting; which meant that he could directly attack Chen Xiaobei.
Later phase of God Ascension cultivation! 1,400,000 combat power!
With his current abilities, the chances of Chen Xiaobei killing an opponent of this caliber was close to zero.
On the contrary, the fact that Wei Zhonglie was able to move about freely was a deadly threat to Chen Xiaobei’s life!
One slip up, and Chen Xiaobei might just end up being the one who died!
It was a good thing that Bai Linsu and Linghu Shuang were already inside the Verdant Emperor’s Divine Gourd or they would have been even more worried.
“So? Are you afraid now?” Wei Zhonglie smiled. An evil murderous look flashed in his eyes as he roared, “Flame up!”
In a split second, the Crimson-Flame Battle Tiger fell to a hunting stance, crouched on all fours, its head close to the ground, and was building up momentum.
This was then followed by an explosion of blinding bright light.
The temperature of the place rose, and the brick floor under the tiger’s claws melted into a shocking lake of red magma. The surrounding air seemed to shudder under the heat.
This was the power of an Earth-God instrument!
There was no need for an assault. The temperature alone was enough to turn the average person into a nicely charred barbeque!
Fortunately, the cold from the coffin was enough to counter the frightening heat. Otherwise, Chen Xiaobei’s health would have greatly suffered from the burns that he would endure!
“Faction Leader Chen…” Ying Zheng asked in hushed voice. “Are you sure you can do this?”
Chen Xiaobei had no intention of backing off. “If you’re scared, I can put you back! Why should I be afraid when I have the Black Dragon Riders?”
“Scared? Faction Leader Chen! Are you kidding?!” Ying Zheng was suddenly stirred up. “Me! The one who conquered six states, and ruled China! The word scared does not exist in my dictionary!”
“If you’re not afraid, then keep quiet and watch the fight!” Chen Xiaobei snapped. “Soon, I’ll show you that you will never regret being my ally!”
“Good! Bold and feisty!” Ying Zheng said sonorously, “Please! Faction leader! Go ahead! I will wait and see!”
Fwaaah
Chen Xiaobei waved his hand and released 1 million Spiritual Stones.
The Spiritual Stones shattered and Spiritual Qi surged into Chen Xiaobei’s palm in an endless stream.
Both Wei Zhonglie and Ying Zheng were shocked to see this.
Most people’s Dantian would have a limited capacity.
When the number of Spiritual Qi they took in exceeded their limits, they would fall into a Qi Deviation state and explode!
Chen Xiaobei had just taken in one million Spiritual Qi! That had seriously exceeded the capacity of his Dantian!
Strangely, Chen Xiaobei was absolutely fine – there was not a single sign of discomfort on him!
This was unprecedented!
“Tiger Penetration!”
Worried that Chen Xiaobei might come up something surprising, Wei Zhonglie immediately launched an attack.
BAM!
BAM!
The Crimson-Flame Battle Tiger had been gearing up for some time now. The energy that it released had increased by 10%!
Do not underestimate a 10% increase – at an Earth God level, 10% could be as much as 100,000 combat power.
However, due to the fact that the Flaming Tiger Divine Saber was merely an Earth-God instrument and not an actual Earth-God, Chen Xiaobei could not tell, even with his Netherspirit Battlescouter, on how much combat power it was exactly.
Zing!”
Wei Zhonglie struck with his Flaming Tiger Divine Saber!
The Crimson-Flame Battle Tiger on standby suddenly tore towards the direction of the saber! It was moving so quickly that all the naked eye could see were red steaks of silhouettes.
This time, Wei Zhonglie’s target was the Blood-God’s Deity-Killing painting hovering in the air!
He decided that since he could not destroy the black coffin, and that since Chen Xiaobei had just taken in one million Spiritual Stones, the painting was the most vulnerable target!
Once the painting was destroyed, the hundred-thousand spirit formation would crumble, and that killing Chen Xiaobei would be a breeze!
It was undeniable that Wei Zhonglie’s decision was strategically accurate. If he succeeded in this endeavour, Chen Xiaobei was doomed.
But!
The Blood God’s Deity-Killing painting was not to be trifled with!
“Killl!” All 10,000 of the Blood-robed Evil Spirits shouted their battle cry.
The Blood-robed Evil Spirits which were nearby immediately surrounded the painting, while the others swooped down from the air like eagles to meet the Crimson-Flame Battle Tiger’s attack.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Thousands of Blood-robed Evil Spirits came to the top of the tiger’s head. The murderous intent was so strong that an elite like Wei Zhonglie was forced to take a step back and suck in a deep breath.
The sea-of-bodies illusion entered Wei Zhonglie’s mind so much so he felt as if he could be ripped apart by these Blood-robed Evil Spirits at any moment!
But Wei Zhonglie was not just anybody, and he did not succumb to the internal chaos created by the hallucinations.
“How evil!”
Wei Zhonglie bit the tip of his tongue so that pain would shoot right up into his brain, forcing his mind to remain calm, and dispel the horror in his mind!
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
The Crimson-Flame Battle Tiger had already engaged in a fierce battle with the Blood-robed Evil Spirits.
The Flaming Tiger Divine Saber was a One-star Earth-God instrument, and had already activated its Spiritual Attribute. So, although the Crimson-Flame Battle Tiger was just an illusion, it was already very close to being an actual Spiritual Beast – able to fight a combat without Wei Zhonglie controlling it.
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
With claws dancing in the air, the tiger was maneuvering, launching powerful strikes at the nearest Blood-robed Evil Spirit, sending them tumbling through the air.
The Flaming Tiger Divine Saber itself was Pure Yang item, enabling it to wound the Blood-robed Evil Spirits’ spiritual bodies, leaving scorch marks on each of them. On top of that, black smoke was escaping from those injuries. The damage was pretty serious.
“Haha… The victory belongs to me!” Wei Zhonglie laughed delightfully. “I am more powerful than you could ever dream to be! The Flaming Tiger Divine Saber can counter your Earth-God instrument and eliminate all of your Blood-robed Evil Spirits! You’re a dead man now! Hahaha…”
“Faction Leader Chen! Hurry! Give me one million Spiritual Stones now!” Ying Zheng suddenly shouted. “The formation can mend the Black Dragon Riders’ wounds and prevent them from dying!”
Wei Zhonglie snorted, “Heh, more Spiritual Stones? What, do you think this Mr. Chen is the God of Prosperity? He has just used up two million Spiritual Stones! I don’t believe he can take out another one million!”
“Hehe,” Chen Xiaobei chuckled. “To me, any problem that can be solved with Spiritual Stones is not a problem at all!”
When he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and Spiritual Stones came falling down like rain!
