Chapter 520: Demon Chrysalis
"Rank 4 Martial Technique, Wildstorm. Maximizes the power of the Law of Space. Steel fists can split open metal and stone, law force against the opponent, achieving the effect of turning them into dust …" Xia Fei slowly recited the introduction of the martial technique.
"So it's a fist technique. Unleashes the power of law as intensely as possible, forcefully striking the enemy," Phantom said after listening. "Piercing through a spatial barrier with a single punch and dealing a fatal blow to the enemy … This fist technique seems a little too fierce."
Xia Fei nodded. He had always walked the path of agility, and while he had learned a few fierce techniques, he had not used them much. As for the pros and cons of Wildstorm and Chain Blockade, he still had no way of distinguishing them, and he needed to personally test them out to know.
There was no doubt that Wildstorm was an entire level higher than Chain Blockade, and once he finished cultivating it, he would be able to display even greater combat strength.
Xia Fei weighed the Lapis Killer Rain in his hand. It seemed to be quite heavy, and aside from the strange markings on it, there were also some words, indicating that a Law Emperor named Youzhu had created this spatial weapon.
"A spatial weapon created by a Law Emperor! No wonder this thing is so lethal, claiming the lives of hundreds of Law Adepts in just a few seconds! "Phantom exclaimed.
A Law Emperor was a rather distant existence to Xia Fei, and in the entire Yu family, only the patriarch, Yujiang, was a Law Emperor, which was enough to show his status.
Xia Fei took away all the valuable items from the corpses. Origin Crystals had been bothering Xia Fei, and he needed more energy if he wanted to quickly advance. He was already going crazy from poverty, so he naturally would not miss out on any chance to make money. Besides, it was only natural for warriors to take the spoils of war.
Suddenly, the earth shook!
The entire space was violently shaking! It was as if the world was about to collapse!
"What's going on?" Phantom looked up at the starry sky in confusion. "Could this space be collapsing?!"
Xia Fei furrowed his brows as he looked around him, gently dodging the flying rocks.
A few moments later, the space regained its peace.
"Earthquake? That can't be right. There shouldn't be an earthquake in a confined space, "Xia Fei muttered to himself.
That was when a demonic roar tore through the sky!
It was so ear-piercing that cracks appeared on the ground, and Xia Fei painfully covered his ears.
An exotic beast? Xia Fei's first reaction was to think that it was a beast's roar, but he quickly dismissed that thought.
Xia Fei had seen his fair share of exotic beasts, but none of them had produced such a terrifying roar! It sounded more like the roar of a demon!
"Leave this place!"
Xia Fei's keen senses warned him of danger, and he did not hesitate to make a run for it.
Rumble!
The ground collapsed!
In the direction that Xia Fei was heading, a black worm suddenly burrowed out of the ground!
It was as violent as a volcanic eruption! Boulders and dust were sent flying dozens of kilometers into the air!
It blotted out the sky!
The already dim collection reservoir was shrouded in a huge cloud of dust, and when the dust settled, what appeared before Xia Fei was a chrysalis!
It was a huge, black, wailing pupa. It was shaped like a silkworm's chrysalis, with two pointed ends and a round middle. Its body was glowing with phosphorescence!
This silkworm chrysalis was tens of thousands of times larger than an ordinary chrysalis. Its length was more than five li, and its width was more than a li!
"What is this!? Could it be the Arachnid race? "Gui Ying turned pale with fright.
Xia Fei gloomily shook his head. "No, he doesn't have the aura of an insectoid. It's more like …"
"Like what?"
"A demon!"
Xia Fei's full attention was on that black chrysalis ten li away when an arm suddenly pulled him behind the mountain.
"Don't act rashly. That's a Demon Chrysalis!" Yu Luxuan pulled Xia Fei back and sternly warned.
Beside him were several instructors from the first batch who had arrived. It was said that the collection reservoir could not be entered, but that was only for the warriors. Chief Instructor Yu Luxuan naturally knew how to enter and exit it.
Yu Luxuan and the others had grim expressions on their faces. It was easy to see the intense emotions in the hearts of these Law Sovereigns!
"Demon Chrysalis?" Xia Fei was puzzled.
"That's right. It's a monster reared by the Demon Race. It roams the spatial cracks and has the power to destroy the Law of Space! It's very powerful! "
"The Demon Race?!" This name easily made Xia Fei think of the Law of Primal Chaos he had, as well as the Black and White Gods who had bestowed the Law upon him. They were part of the God Race!
"The world of Laws has a clear hierarchy. For example, our Yu family is a third-tier family, and above us are the Nine Universal Clans, the nine powerful Law clans. And the highest existences are the God Race and the Demon Race. They control the Gate of Laws, and they fight each other year-round. Even ordinary Law clans like us are often implicated."
Xia Fei was utterly shocked. It turned out that his Law of Primal Chaos originated from these two supreme races!
It was no wonder the Law of Primal Chaos had such a powerful effect when it was infused with the disruptive power of the Law of Space. It turned out that the Black and White Gods were unparalleled existences in the Law Realm, and he had actually inadvertently learned the Law of these two supreme races!
The Demon Chrysalis took a deep breath, sucking in the countless energy balls in the collection reservoir into its stomach. It crawled slowly, letting out a soul-stirring howl from time to time. Xia Fei realized that the Demon Chrysalis still had a mouth, but it was located on its abdomen and was very close to the ground, making it very difficult to detect.
"Oh no! The Demon Chrysalis is rapidly devouring the energy in the collection reservoir. If this goes on, I'm afraid we won't be able to keep this space! "an instructor said worriedly.
Yu Luxuan said, "The collection reservoir was built by our ancestors with blood, sweat, and tears, and contains thousands of martial arts techniques that are vital to our family. Once it's destroyed, there's no hope of restoring it with our current strength. We must stop this Demon Chrysalis!"
"Then what should we do? The patriarch might be able to do something, but with just the few of us … "
Yu Luxuan pondered for a moment before saying, "There's no time. Once the collection reservoir collapses, we'll all die without a burial place. We must fight! Try to buy as much time as possible and wait for the patriarch to arrive! "
"Alright!" everyone answered in unison.
Yu Luxuan patted Xia Fei on the shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Don't be afraid. As long as we attack from a distance, there shouldn't be any danger."
Xia Fei nodded. After all, he would not survive if the collection reservoir collapsed, either. This battle was a matter of life and death! They had to fight, whether they wanted to or not!
There was no other choice!
"Follow me!"
Yu Luxuan shouted, and everyone rushed toward the mountain peak, unleashing their ultimate techniques and bombarding the massive object in the distance!
"Five Thunder Shatter!"
"Jade Shatter!"
As the instructors of the Law Warriors, Yu Luxuan and his group were all Law Sovereigns, so their combined attack power was not weak.
For a moment, the sounds of explosions were like thunder, one after another!
Xia Fei held an Origin Crystal in one hand while he used Chain Blockade to attack the Demon Chrysalis from a distance with the other.
* Roar! *
The Demon Chrysalis was enraged! It had gone berserk!
Not only did everyone's attacks fail to hurt it, but it also triggered the Demon Chrysalis' intense desire for revenge!
It was as if there was a layer of protection around it, and even though the attacks seemed to have reached it, they could not actually hurt it!
Its body suddenly shrank, and the Demon Chrysalis curled into a ball.
* Whoosh ~ *
All of a sudden! Its massive body shot out! It charged right at Xia Fei and the others!
"Run! The Demon Chrysalis is going berserk! "
No longer bothering to attack, everyone ran for their lives!
* Kaboom! *
The Demon Chrysalis's massive body smashed the mountain that Xia Fei and the others had been standing on!
That was not a small mound, but a mountain that was over a thousand meters tall! It was made of black granite!
It was evident just how powerful this Demon Chrysalis was!
Rocks flew everywhere!
"Crafty Approach!"
Xia Fei relied on his nimble footwork to quickly retreat, dodging the falling boulders that rained down from the sky.
* Bang! *
A hundred-ton boulder landed less than ten meters away from Xia Fei, creating a huge crater!
One of the instructors who was slightly slower was caught by the Demon Chrysalis. The way it caught them was very unique, releasing energy from its body to control them before sending them into its mouth.
That instructor did not move at all, completely under the Demon Chrysalis's control. Even the spatial barrier had no effect on it.
* Crack! *
The Demon Chrysalis chewed the instructor to pieces. The human's small body was not even enough to fill the gaps between its teeth.
Exotic beasts could not be brought into the collection reservoir, so Furball was not around. Observing the protective layer on the Demon Chrysalis, Xia Fei determined that even his strongest psychokinesis attack would not be able to penetrate it.
Xia Fei was left in a terrible predicament. It was obvious that a creature like the Demon Chrysalis was not something he could deal with at his level!
This black hunk was extremely vengeful. It saw instructors being devoured one by one, and it was very cruel as it ate them slowly, obviously torturing those who were still alive!
At this moment, something unexpected happened!
The Demon Chrysalis actually turned its head to stare at Xia Fei. It had no eyes, but Xia Fei could clearly feel its cold gaze on him.
"Not good! It's treating you as its next target! "Phantom exclaimed.
* Boom! *
Its five-mile-long body actually bounced off the ground like a warship streaking across the sky!
The Demon Chrysalis pounced at Xia Fei with incredible speed!
It was only when the Demon Chrysalis reached Xia Fei's head that it revealed the mouth on its abdomen.
What a huge mouth with huge fangs! There were no words that could describe its terror!
It was at least five hundred meters wide! There were six layers of sharp teeth inside and out!
It was snow-white, gleaming with an eerie and terrifying luster, and there were even bloodstains on it!
"What are you waiting for? Let's run! "Spiritshadow shouted.
His speed ability was fully unleashed!
Xia Fei could not care less as he dashed forward!
There was no doubt that Xia Fei was very fast, but this Demon Chrysalis could actually fly! Its speed was no slower than Xia Fei's!
Gritting his teeth, Xia Fei increased his speed, wanting to get away from this terrifying monster.
However, he did not know what was wrong with the Demon Chrysalis. It did not care about anyone else as it chased after Xia Fei, its murderous intent clear!
* Kaboom! *
A loud sound rang out!
Several white halos descended from the sky and struck the Demon Chrysalis's back!
The Demon Chrysalis let out a wail as it fell from the sky!
Turning around, Xia Fei realized that several hundred people had unknowingly gathered around him, and the one leading them was none other than the patriarch of the family, Yujiang, the only Law Emperor in the family!
"Attack! Give it a good beating! "Yujiang commanded." We must protect the collection reservoir no matter what! "
The patriarch of the family, Yujiang, had immediately led all the elites to the collection reservoir the moment he received the news. This team of several hundred people were all elites, the highest and most precious strength of the Yu family!
* Kaboom! *
Xia Fei felt as if the world was about to shatter. This was the first time he had seen so many high-level Law Adepts attacking at the same time, and the combat strength they displayed was far beyond anyone's imagination!
Though the Demon Chrysalis had thick skin and flesh, it was gradually beginning to crumble under such a fierce attack.
* Roar! *
After a shrill cry, the space was actually torn apart! A crack as wide as a mountain was revealed.
Coincidentally, this crack was not far from where Xia Fei was. The Demon Chrysalis sped toward the spatial crack, and Xia Fei was doing his best to escape!
Alas, the spatial crack had a gravitational pull like a black hole, pulling Xia Fei straight toward it!
* Whoosh ~ *
