Chapter 1527: Traitor of the Leiting Sect
Chapter 1527: Traitor of the Leiting Sect
Light and void exploded in a surge of force.
"[The Boundless Blade: the Trembling World]!"
Sword energy roiled. An arclight dragon reared its head. The technique splintered the glowing sunlight.
The sword energy grew brighter and brighter, until it surpassed sun, moon, and stars in light. The will of the sword seemed to manifest physically into the form of a dragon that made to rip apart heaven and earth.
The ground furrowed; the stars fell from the sky. Sword and halberd clashed once again. The Immortal King's substitute found his injuries worsening as he continued to fight with Li Feng.
The Immortal King's substitute revealed fear for the first time in the battle.
Li Feng's eyes were like silver stars. He stared straight at his opponent and said, "I have to admit that you're stronger than the ninth Immortal King, whom I fought."
He raised his longsword high overhead. Sword energy glinted with piercing light as devastating strength rippled from Li Feng's blade, the upgraded form of [Striking Sun and Moon].
"But you are not stronger than me! [Slashing Void and Stars]!"
A huge sword that tore apart the starry sky cleaved down from above.
The Immortal King's substitute defended at full strength.
The sword and the halberd clashed. Light radiated from the sword, overwhelming the strength of the void explosion. The Immortal King's substitute held his halberd horizontally and defended with its haft, but was sent flying from the impact. The halberd was filled with cracks. The Immortal King's substitute spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. As his injuries worsened, he found it more and more difficult to continue fighting with Li Feng.
He slowly crept backwards.
[The Boundless Blade: Godkiller]!"
Silver radiance swept forward in a tide, like a whole herd of holy dragons.
That silver light, imbued with golden threads, formed a mysterious sea, simultaneously real and illusory, which existed in between both realms.
The transient, illusory nature of the light captivated everyone who saw it.
Upon seeing Li Feng's attack, the Immortal King's substitute's pupils contracted. The terror of having lost to Li Feng before suddenly reared its head.
The Immortal King's substitute turned tail and ran. "Save me!" he shouted.
It was hard enough for his allies to deal with Zhang Lie and the members of Team Zenith; with the Immortal King's substitute having run off, the battle rapidly shifted in the hunters' favor.
Suddenly, Leiting Zi shouted, "I've been waiting for this opportunity for long enough!"
The sky exploded in a waterfall of lightning.
A cultivator shot forward with a fist that lit up the heavens and dissipated all clouds in the vicinity.
What incredible strength!
A figure wreathed in lightning was the first to strike. He moved at nearly the speed of light; no one could be faster. A bolt of lightning shot forward.
Zhang Lie's eyes widened. Who was attacking them?
Li Feng was in the midst of charging up his attack, and couldn't spare the time to deal with the attacker.
The opponent was moving too quickly and had been preparing for far too long. No one present could stop that cultivator—but, unexpectedly, the cultivator struck not at Li Feng, but rather at Leiting Ya.
"Traitors of the Leiting Domain shall die!"
Lightning erupted. The ground exploded. Lightning filled the realm as though it were an apocalypse, stretching for hundreds of kilometers on end.
Leiting Ya was shaken. Divine light burst forth from his palms, forming a mallet of lightning that smashed down.
For a moment, everything in the vicinity was filled with lightning.
Fang Yi, completely immersed in the fight, was suddenly flung back. He gaped in disbelief at the cultivator who had suddenly appeared.
"It's you!"
Fang Yi was shocked to see Leiting Zi.
He thought that Leiting Zi had failed to make it into the finals after suffering from an accident, but even more surprisingly, Leiting Zi's target wasn't him. It was Leiting Ya.
Leiting Ya and Leiting Zi were from the same sect, and their techniques were similar as well. They exchanged ten blows in an instant, but neither seemed to gain an advantage.
Leiting Ya was surprised to see someone so familiar around. "So it's you, Junior Brother! I was wondering who it was."
"Silence! For humiliating my sect and turning traitor, I deny our fraternal bonds. On sect orders, those members of the sect who come across you, Leiting Ya, are honor-bound to kill you!"
Leiting Zi's conviction was obvious; it was clear he hated his former senior brother, Leiting Ya.
A pair of wings fluttered to his back, one black, one white. The power of yin and yang accompanied the lightning he controlled. His left hand was as bright as the sun, his right as dark as ink. His vitality blazed as he consumed it for a supercharged attack.
Lightning filled heaven and earth. The fight between the two cultivators who commanded lightning itself gave off such blinding brilliance that it overwhelmed the battlefield.
Even Leiting Ya had to treat Leiting Zi's attack seriously.
The fact that he was able to resolve yin and yang from lightning was incredible, and Leiting Ya had to admit that Leiting Zi was talented.
"As expected of someone born from lightning. Junior Brother, you were compatible with lightning from the very beginning!"
Even though he was shocked by Leiting Zi's technique, Leiting Ya didn't seem fearful. The fact that he was able to escape the pursuit of the seniors of his sect meant that he had his own strengths.
Around him, all manner of grass, shrub, herb, and plant began to grow: some in gold, in purple, and in green. All radiated with luster.
This greenery wasn't real; it had manifested from lightning. Lightning wasn't just an element that harbored immense destructive potential; it could likewise birth life and vitality.
Gold, purple, and lush green filled his surroundings; gold, purple, and lush green lightning exploded forth. These two forms of lightning bore the same colors but harnessed different types of energy. One was compatible with vitality and natural energy; the other boasted destruction.
The two types of lightning combined into something more potent than even yin and yang.
Leiting Zi was sent flying as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Leiting Ya shook his head in exasperation. "Junior Brother, you'll need to be able to extract vitality and natural energy from lightning to truly master it. Even if you've managed to decompose it into yin and yang, that's still not sufficient."
"Shut up!"
Leiting Zi's lightning blazed like flames.
"Junior Brother, you weren't a match for me before. Do you think you are now?" Leiting Ya allowed Leiting Zi to strike him once. He cultivated lightning and had incredible resistance to lightning-based attacks. Leiting Zi's technique would barely hurt him; as the lightning-transformed greenergy flowered around him, his wounds healed in an instant.
Leiting Zi's fighting intent dissipated.
That was Leiting Ya's goal.
