The rage from a level 5 Law Overlord was of course nothing to be scoffed at. Golcen Ward’s assault was like a dam unleashed, rapid and powerful. Xia Fei could barely find time to catch his breath as he withstood the pressure!
Crafty Approach! Speed!
When both Xia Fei’s ultimate skills were used in tandem, his figure blurred, moving in completely illogical trajectories. He was clearly charging to his left but would end up going right in the blink of an eye. Coordinating this with a speed that was over 120,000m/s, he was practically a brazen specter!
Golden’s constant attacks were still effective despite this. Though he lacked the speed to catch up to Xia Fei, his neural response time was actually even faster than Xia Fei’s!
Speed was the talent of a speed ability user or a Law of Speed practitioner, while neural response was something all warriors shared! This meant to say that, no matter what sort of special ability or law someone cultivated, as long as they were of high enough level, their neural response time would increase accordingly as well!
The heavens had given speed-type warriors extraordinary movement speed and all warriors swift neural response time at the same time. This was probably the universe’s way of maintaining some balance, or else the speed-type warriors would probably have dominated all of existence long ago!
*Kaboom*
It was as if Golcen Ward had over tens of thousands of arms! Since Xia Fei moved at high speed, Golcen Ward resorted to a powerful and continuous bombardment of ranged attacks!
The black rocks, which could be found everywhere on this planet, were being exploded as if tens of thousands of warships were letting loose their cannonfire on the land! The sound of ear-splitting explosions could be heard everywhere.
The Moonward Clan was proficient in two ultimate moves: One was Spatial Compaction. It was able to crush any matter within a set area to nothingness. If a perfectly living and breathing human got caught in the attack, they would surely be pressed into a meatball about the size of a finger. All their bones, meridians, flesh balled up! It was extremely cruel!
The other was Matter Reconfiguration. Though it was not as brutal a power as Spatial Compaction, it was not something somebody could defend against. The rocks, which were struck with it, instantly turned into sand particles, all because the law force exerted instantly disintegrated the matter!
Pressure!
Immense pressure that made it impossible for anyone to breathe!
Xia Fei gritted his teeth as he shuttled through wave upon wave of attacks. He relied on his tremendous movement speed and agility to dodge everything coming his way, searching for the best time for him to engage.
Even a Law Overlord could not persist with such a crazy barrage of attack forever. What mattered was who had the greater perseverance, able to endure until the very end!
Golcen Ward’s wrist trembled, releasing a glowing mass that contained the power of Matter Reconfiguration. This ball of light originally moved quickly, but the moment it got near Xia Fei, this ball suddenly slowed down!
“Crap!” Xia Fei exclaimed. He had just become accustomed to Golcen Ward’s high speed assault, yet the Law Overlord had unexpectedly changed the speed of his attack! This caused Xia Fei to fail in making a timely dodge, and that ball of light that suddenly slowed down landed squarely on his chest!
“Crafty Approach!”
Having lost his balance, Xia Fei forcibly tried to kick in the air in hopes of avoiding this attack from hitting his vital point!
*Pew*
He did barely manage to avoid the attack from landing where his heart was positioned, but the Law of Matter Reconfiguration ended up hitting Xia Fei’s left arm! A large chunk of the top-grade Monohorn Ogre war armor instantly withered upon contact, turning into rotted bark, looking absolutely lifeless, enough to see just how potent the decomposition power of Golcen Ward’s Matter Reconfiguration was.
Twisting his body, Xia Fei was now facing the sky! He lightly tapped his spatial ring while in the air, and a small robot, about the height of his knee, was released at once!
This robot had a slender form, with a simple and sturdy mechanical frame supporting its body. Its two arms, similar to long and sharp scalpels, flashed murderously, and its two legs, bent and resembling a wound spring, firmly planted themselves on the ground as its body inclined at a forty-five-degree angle.
This was a surreptitious movement on Xia Fei’s part, having made it seem as if the robot had fallen out of his spatial ring by accident when he was sent flying.
“Chance!”
Golcen Ward felt elated. The greatest fear of speed-type warriors was losing control over their body and, subsequently, their balance as it would create a short time when their dynamic movement was virtually nonexistent, preventing them from adjusting their distance or positioning. Golcen Ward considered Xia Fei losing his balance as the perfect time for him to deal the killing blow!
*Whoosh*
Instant Movement!
Another Instant Movement!
The Instant Movement technique of Law of Space practitioners was their only chance to bridge the gap in terms of speed with speed-type warriors! Golcen Ward did not hesitate to do just that in an attempt to close in on Xia Fei and restrict the latter as he went for the kill!
A strange and wry smile appeared on Xia Fei’s face. The next moment, Xia Fei’s body, which was hurtling horizontally, seemed to turn into a boomerang as it inexplicably wound in an… arc? The moment Golcen Ward appeared at the point where he expected to land his attack, all he saw was white! Meanwhile, Xia Fei, who had suddenly disappeared, reappeared behind him!
Golcen Ward knitted his eyebrows. He simply could not make sense how Xia Fei was able to have full control of his movements despite losing balance just then, and it was while moving at such high speeds, too!
Not only him, everyone watching the fight was equally flabbergasted and at a loss!
This was all because Crafty Approach had never been a technique that played by the rules of common sense! This technique, which Xia Fei had refined, was on a whole new physical level of agility and was something that could not be measured with common sense!
As Golcen Ward was reeling from his shock, he failed to notice that the small robot, which Xia Fei seemed to have accidentally dropped, had burrowed into the ground like a trap!
‘Curse you, Xia Fei! Looks like I’ll have to change my tactics,’ Golcen Ward hatefully thought to himself.
All of a sudden—
That immobile and squat robot, which Xia Fei had ‘accidentally’ dropped on the ground, made an abrupt move!
Crafty Approach!
It was also Crafty Approach!
Though this robot’s Crafty Approach was not as ingenious as Xia Fei’s, it was still capable of achieving quite a decent effect. The figure blurred and was soon right under Golcen Ward!
*Zing*
That diminutive robot rose from the ground, its twin scalpels aimed at Golcen Ward’s crotch!
It moved with such deftness and ease, not at all encumbered in any sense, giving it a master’s touch!
The most amazing aspect of this robot lay in the aura; despite using such a lethal move, it did not exude even a hint of killing intent. Thus, it was able to covertly accomplish the horrific attack!
Golcen Ward had not expected that the seemingly immobile robot would actually be functional and would even know how to kill!
The simpler a movement, the more it tested the skill of a practitioner. Just how could a robot achieve such a killer, phantom-like strike? Golcen Ward was simply nonplussed!
When he was faced with this sudden sharp-blade attack, Golcen Ward did not have the time to mull over anything else. Pressing both his hands down, he imbued a layer of protection with his Law of Space and attempted to block this robot’s surprise attack!
*Stab!*
The sound of the sharp scalpels piercing his skin was exceptionally clear; it was just like what someone would hear tearing paper!
The robot did not manage to pull off its lethal strike, but the blades did slice Golcen Ward’s palms!
After executing this attack, the robot followed the trajectory of Golcen Ward’s impetus and sank beneath the soil. The robot lowered its head as its body spun rapidly, drilling tens of thousands spins every second; in no time, it disappeared without a trace underground!
This was Phantom!
After Sentinel Goddess Sophie’s painstaking reconstruction, the perfect fusion of machinery and soul had finally been achieved!
Not only had he become powerful, able to interchange mechanical parts as he desired, he had even managed to retain the Crafty Approach and other Assassin Sect’s techniques that he had perfected back when he was still alive! Even the large number of combat techniques that the Mechs had gathered was stored in his memory!
Indeed, Phantom had since been reborn, becoming another great helper by Xia Fei’s side! Not only could he help Xia Fei when it came to pharmacology, he could even help Xia Fei kill his opponents!
At present, the state of the fight had the Immemorial Mystical Armament Peacock Blue, Holy Beast Shatterstar, the undying soul Phantom, as well as the speed-type Law Emperor Xia Fei going up against Law Overlord Golcen Ward!
This was Xia Fei, forever holding back a hand. No one had any idea just how many trump cards this young man had up his sleeves!
…
“Whoa!” Xia Zonghai was shocked into shouting. “That little robot’s very powerful! Actually managing to penetrate through the Law of Space protective layer, I dare to bet that those two scalpels of his aren’t made of normal metal!”
“But of course! If Law Overlords don’t have immortal bodies, then they won’t be near indestructible! Most conventional weapons can obviously break his defense.” Xia Niu’s eyes glowed as he spoke.
Though Xia Fei was not having an easy time in this fight, the warriors of Skywing were all full of praises for Xia Fei’s performance. Especially with the series of strange weapons and tricks he pulled time and again, it left everyone feeling stunned!
No one had any idea why Xia Fei would have so many trump cards on him, with each more sinister than the last!
Golcen Ward was stunned. His two eyes staring at his still bleeding hand. That wound was not too obvious, yet it deeply hurt his pride.
A level 5 Law Overlord got injured by a level 1 Law Emperor twice. Who was going to believe this if word got out?!
*Boom*
An imposing aura!
Following Xia Fei’s sinister tricks, Golcen Ward had gotten utterly enraged by now!
From the start up until this moment, Xia Fei had not engaged this Law Overlord in a real fight even once, only luring Golcen Ward to attack repeatedly, just to throw the trump cards he had hidden in the latter’s face each time!
Such a combat tactic was not only treacherous but also clearly effective. It forced the level 5 Law Overlord Golcen Ward into a fit of rage!
Crossing both arms, Golcen Ward made a strange motion and manifested a rolling ball of flame!
“Flawless Full Moon!” Golcen Ward bellowed.
*Rumble*
The fireball was instantly extinguished, turning into a cold, porcelain white moonlight that enveloped Golcen Ward fully.
*Whoosh*
As this moonlight rose in the air, it actually turned into a bright moon orb that illuminated the battlefield, which had been devastated by their fight!
“RUN! THAT’S A HIGH TIER TRACKING TECHNIQUE!” the old demon lord blurted into Xia Fei’s ears, panicked.
Xia Fei did not even waste the time to think; he quickly diverted energy to his legs and sprinted off in a parabolic curve!
*Zwing*
Just as Xia Fei moved to flee, Golcen Ward appeared right where he had been standing moments ago! This moonlight was like a positional device that could lock onto Xia Fei’s position any time; subsequently, it could transport the Law Overlord right to where Xia Fei was located!
Though his first strike missed, Golcen Ward softly chuckled. Black and white crawled up his left and right arm respectively, turning him into a combination of yin and yang!
Xia Fei had seen this before; it was none other than Law Integration!
Ulcen Ward had practically wrecked Law Emperor Xia Fei after using Law Integration, so he had no doubt that the higher level Golcen Ward could pose an even greater threat to Xia Fei using this same skill now!
“Careful! Flawless Full Move is a high tier tracking technique, while Law Integration strengthens a practitioner’s combat strength beyond standard tiers! From here onward, Golcen Ward is law! Any physical attack done to him will be ineffective!” Oro continued to say.
Xia Fei was experiencing what Oro meant even as he sprinted. He was doing everything he could to escape from the shine of Flawless Full Moon, but it was too bad that this moon created by law force had already risen in space, and the entire planet was essentially within its range. It was completely unavoidable!
After Law Integration, Golcen Ward had achieved an even greater control of law force. He no longer sent forth physically-exhausting-yet-useless mid- and long-ranged attacks; instead, he began an earnest hunt. As long as Golcen Ward captured Xia Fei, a tragic fate would befall the latter!
*Zip*
Golcen Ward’s movement speed was impressively quick, suddenly appearing right in the path Xia Fei was taking, jabbing out a single hand!
What looked like a simple attack actually contained irresistible strength. Law had already been integrated into Golcen Ward’s body. As such, just a touch of his could prove lethal!
“Law of Primal Chaos!”
Arching his eyebrow, Xia Fei similarly mustered his law force to clash with Golcen Ward!
The situation could not be any clearer; when the Law of Space integrated with the body, Golcen Ward’s movement speed increased and reached a speed comparable to what Xia Fei possessed! Furthermore, that bizarre moonlight kept accurately transporting Golcen Ward to wherever Xia Fei was. It was impossible for Xia Fei to escape even if he wanted to continue evading through his speed and Crafty Approach!
Since he had no means to avoid the Law Overlord’s onslaught, he decided to simply stop delaying the inevitable!
‘Let’s see whose law power is stronger, then!’ Xia Fei gritted his teeth and mentally roared. His expression was fierce and the veins on his forehead throbbed visibly!
*Kaboom*
A deafening crack rang about. Both Xia Fei and Golcen Ward were sent ricocheting away from each other at the same time!
The Law of Primal Chaos managed to break Golcen Ward’s attack but failed to deal harm on his physical body. All it succeeded in doing was send him bouncing right out!
“It’s not enough! I need even greater force!”
Xia Fei was absolutely shaken! This was the first time the Law of Primal Chaos had failed to harm the enemy’s actual body! The Law of Primal Chaos, which subverted and disrupted everything it faced, failed to deal with the enemy. It seemed like he had no choice but to unleash an even more powerful attack!
*Pop*
It was unknown when a drug bottle had appeared in Xia Fei’s hand. He popped the cap off with his thumb and emptied its content to his gullet, letting the liquid within flow down the hatch.
