Chapter 353 War (Part 5)
Tian Bo was rushing around Liu Feng, forming a vortex with Liu Feng at the center. But Liu Feng was just unfazed.
He turned slowly, but he couldn't possibly be keeping up with the speed of the vortex that was swirling around, could he?
Tian Bo's sword suddenly appeared next to Liu Feng, threatening to scrape his neck.
Clang!
Liu Feng's spear found the sword, and then, it moved toward the hand that held it.
"Found you." Liu Feng smiled as he reached toward Tian Bo, his spear about to piece through Tian Bo's head, when Tian Bo disappeared once more.
"I am surprised. You are the first speed oriented cultivator that I have faced in a long time. You are going to be a tough opponent to beat." Liu Feng nodded.
He also moved this time, as the vortex that Tian Bo made before had been broken. And this time, Liu Feng did not even intend to be caught.
If anyone looked at this battle from the ground: and they were, all they could see was bright flashes of light. No one could see Liu Feng and Tian Bo, as they were no on full speed, dashing past each other.
Only they could see each other, and that was because they were near each other. And at this close distance, they were able sense each other with their divine senses and their phenomenal speed.
Liu Feng was impressed by his opponent. It was not everyday that he could be matched in speed. Gu Hai couldn't do it. Neither could Shen Qiang. But clearly, Tian Bo was a little different. He was hiding his strength till now, and he was a true ninth layer expert.
Much stronger than whatever Gu Hai mustered up.
So Liu Feng could not afford do use anything but his best.
"Kun Peng Transformation Arts!" He whispered as his voice turned hoarse.
He was still invisible to the enemy, who could only sense him, but Tian Bo suddenly stopped as he looked at a direction in horror.
Liu Feng has stopped in his tracks, and looked up to the skies.
His back was adorned with giant wings, and his face had changed. He looked no longer like a human, but like a monster. He had completely transformed into something else.
"A kun peng! He transformed into a kun peng!" Tian Bo whispered with realization, that soon turned into frustration.
A Kun Peng was considered the symbol for absolute speed. One flap of the wings of a Kun Peng could travel miles and miles. It was able to traverse the small distance between Liu Feng and Tian Bo within fractions of a second.
If Liu Feng was even half a Kun Peng in speed, he would be able to escape the very heavens with his speed.
Liu Feng's wings flapped once, and he disappeared. Just like that. There was no afterimage, nothing. He was just gone.
Tian Bo looked around. He wanted to move, but his instincts told him that it was a bad idea. His sword unsheathed and ready to defend against any attack that would come at him, he looked around, turning to the sides.
He even looked up and down, not sure where Liu Feng was at all. He just disappeared into thin air.
But Liu Feng appeared right where he least expected it.
"Looking for me?" His voice whispered.
Tian Bo turned back to the front, where he came just inches away from Liu Feng's frightening face that was no longer human.
Liu Feng's mouth, which could barely be considered a mouth, was curled all the way to his ears, as his spear suddenly struck Tian Bo's torso.
Spurt!
Tian Bo coughed out blood as he fell back. His clutched his abdomen and looked at Liu Feng with fear.
"You monster! How can someone like you exist in this world?" Tian Bo asked, unnerved by what had happened.
The spear didn't go through Tian Bo's abdomen. It stopped at the exterior, because of the armor that Tian Bo was using. It was a thin hide, but it did its job once.
But Tian Bo still sustained a few internal injuries from this attack. That was how strong the attack was.
If it weren't for the armor, he would have been seriously injured.
"Monster? Yeah, I guess you can call me that." Liu Feng paused before he moved once more. This time, Tian Bo was utterly terrified. He mustered all the strength that he could, trying to move away from where he was standing.
Once was enough. He didn't want to go through another attack like that again.
"Too late."
Even as Tian Bo was trying his best to retreat from where he was, he knew that the speed that Liu Feng had just shown off was something that he could not possibly attain. It was just astronomical.
And then, he heard those two words. He stopped, and it was a good thing that he stopped. Because the moment that he did, a sharp object pointed at his neck just slowly retreated.
Someone was right behind him, and if he moved even an inch more, he would have retreated straight to his death.
"How are you so fast?" Tian Bo asked, shocked.
"Trade secret." Liu Feng's normal, human voice came out from the other end. He was no longer in his transformed state, and he didn't need to be. The match was over.
Liu Feng had shown the ultimate mercy by not piercing that spear into Tian Bo's nape.
"If you can admit your defeat and retreat from this war, it will be nice to see." Liu Feng smiled from behind.
"It is too bad. To think that out of everyone, I was the first one to go." Tian Bo sighed.
"Actually, you weren't. You were just too engrossed in your running that you haven't noticed that nothing about this battle was going your way." Liu Feng chuckled.
