The second Immemorial Mystical Armament!
Chapter 609: The Second Immemorial Mystical Armament!
Phantom's words reminded Xia Fei that the Sky Curtain was a type of law power, while the Law of Primal Chaos was specialized in subverting and destroying laws. The Law of Ternary Spectrum was not enough to stop Xia Fei, and neither was the Sky Curtain in front of him.
The warriors were at their wit's end, all of them anxiously waiting. Xia Fei walked along the beach, acting like he was observing the situation.
Snake Isle was huge, and the beach on the periphery of the isle was filled with white, fine sand that stretched on endlessly. The further one was from the landing point, the less people there were. After all, this was an extremely long beach, and even if all the elites of the family were gathered here, it would not be enough to control the entire isle.
Xia Fei frowned. This was clearly a hidden danger. Such a large island could not possibly be guarded by just a thousand Law Sovereigns, and the Yu family was not willing to ask for help from external forces. If there really was an enemy, they could easily escape through the sparse defenses.
According to Xia Fei's understanding of the situation, the patriarch had not entered Snake Isle alone. Yu Jin was able to firmly reject the Law Enforcement Board's offer of assistance because of the rules of Snake Isle and his confidence in the patriarch. He believed that the patriarch had the strength to deal with any unexpected situation.
Of course, there was also the possibility that Yu Jin wanted to see the patriarch die on Snake Isle, which was why he did not want the Law Enforcement Board to provide assistance. This was all a trap!
Rubbing his temples, Xia Fei also felt that this matter was very troublesome. To be able to take out a Sky Curtain that was not registered with the Law Enforcement Board and trap a peak Law Emperor like Yu Jiang inside, if this was truly the work of an enemy, then the enemy's strength could not be underestimated!
There was no one on the beach, so Xia Fei lightly opened his spatial ring.
"Oro, I know that though you've lost all your martial arts, your perception is extraordinary. Did you notice anything strange on this isle?" Xia Fei asked.
Oro nodded. "Yes, but this isn't the sign of a battle; it's killing intent!"
"I've seen a Sky Curtain before. It's an invisible barrier, but the Sky Curtain on this isle is shrouded in a layer of fog. It's obvious that someone has released a tangible killing intent. Our perception as warriors is very important, but sometimes, we also need to rely on observation. "
"Killing intent is a form of mental energy. How can it be tangible?!" Xia Fei asked.
Lionheart Emperor Oro smiled. "Didn't you always say that there's nothing impossible in the universe? It's true that murderous aura is Spirit Telekinesis, but if it's cultivated properly, it will also have a subtle effect on the surrounding air, thus changing the color of the environment. "
"This layer of killing intent isn't very strong. I reckon that it's the result of too many experts clashing. There might be eight to ten experts with at least Law Emperor cultivation in the Sky Curtain, and their killing intents are clashing with each other, which is why the Sky Curtain is covered in a layer of gray.
"Ten Law Emperors!" Xia Fei could not help but be surprised. With so many experts appearing on stage at the same time, what kind of shock would that be?
"Wait." Lionheart Emperor Oro added, "There's a faint green tint in the sky, so there must be something else there."
Xia Fei was thoroughly convinced. An expert was truly an expert. Just by judging the color of the sky, Lionheart Emperor Oro had been able to discover the Divine Beast Green Dawn's existence. This kind of observational ability was practically unparalleled.
"That's not right. It seems like there's something else aside from experts and something else. What could it be?" Oro muttered to himself. Noticing the surprise on Xia Fei's face, Oro said, "There's no need to make a fuss. The Demon Race specializes in the Law of Light and Darkness, which is completely different from the God Race's cultivation. It's very normal for me to be able to discover the profoundness of the light through observation."
Xia Fei nodded. Light and Darkness were both part of the Law of the Spectrum. Oro's ability to discern this was inextricably linked to his cultivation experience.
Before he knew it, the beach had already emptied, and Xia Fei had already circled around to the back of the island.
"No matter what's on Snake Isle, we'll know once we go in," Xia Fei sternly said.
Oro did not say anything, but Phantom nervously said, "There are plenty of experts on Snake Isle. What's the point of going in alone? You might as well try to destroy the Sky Curtain and let all the warriors of the Yu family in."
Xia Fei shook his head. "Do you want everyone to know that I have the power to subvert law?"
Phantom was speechless. For Xia Fei to be able to live to this day safely, it was all thanks to the fact that he was hiding something. A man's wealth was his own ruin. Xia Fei had always kept this saying in mind. He would never reveal his true strength in front of others, always leaving a backup plan for everything.
"Besides, I don't trust a single one of these people!" Xia Fei sternly said.
…
* Whoosh ~ *
Breaking the Sky Curtain was not too difficult for Xia Fei. After a dozen or so Falling Leaves of Autumn's Demise, a temporary crack appeared on the Sky Curtain, and Xia Fei used this opportunity to enter Snake Isle!
The forest was dense.
Xia Fei had never seen so many snakes in his life. There were pythons, vipers, rattlesnakes, five-paced snakes, and pit vipers. It was truly a dazzling sight.
Furball's presence caused all the snakes to flee, and this was even after Xia Fei had forced Furball to conceal his aura. There was no helping it, for Furball was an unparalleled Holy Beast. He could conceal his aura, but he could not completely erase it.
Xia Fei carefully made his way through the forest. The trees and Breath Control were the most natural form of protection as he made his way toward the center of Snake Isle.
"A corpse!" Xia Fei sternly said.
The appearance of a man's corpse in the thicket made the atmosphere even more oppressive. Half of his body was submerged in a small stream, facing away from the isle. There was a horrifying wound on his back, revealing his white bones.
Xia Fei lightly poked the corpse with his finger. "He's been dead for several hours. Someone from the Yu family must've wanted to reach the beach to inform them, but they were ambushed and killed along the way!"
Lionheart Emperor Oro glanced into the distance and sternly said, "There are many experts in the center of the isle. Be careful."
Xia Fei nodded and continued forward, choosing an even more cautious and ever-changing path.
The area ahead suddenly widened, and the thicket was gone. He arrived at a flat grassland. The grassland was a regular circle, as if someone had purposely cleared it out. Right in the center was the ancestral shrine of the Yu family, and there was a lake to the left. There was also a shrine in the middle of the lake, most likely where the Divine Beast Green Dawn, the guardian clan was located.
Two groups of people stood facing each other.
On one side was the patriarch of the Yu family, as well as a middle-aged man with long hair, who looked to be in his thirties. He was closely locked in combat with Yujiang, most likely Yujiang's grandson, Yuguding. There were also two elders whom Xia Fei did not recognize, both of them about the same age as Yujiang. There was also a giant green python standing proudly behind Yujiang and the other three!
Every one of them was more or less injured, and the Divine Beast Green Dawn even had a huge gash in its abdomen, from which blood was constantly flowing.
Xia Fei had actually expected all of this, but what he did not expect was that the leader of the seven people Yujiang was facing was actually Yuhua!
Another Yuhua!
Xia Fei had just seen him on the beach ten minutes ago, so how could he appear on Snake Isle again?
Xia Fei felt a headache coming on, and he was a little stunned on the spot!
However, he forced himself to calm down, his mind rapidly searching for an answer.
"They're all Law Emperors," Lionheart Emperor Oro sternly said. "This is a battle between Law Emperors! There's a total of fourteen people. "
"Fourteen?!" Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. There were four people by Yujiang's side, and behind Yuhua were six masked men in black armor, making a total of eleven people.
"Look at the forest across from you. There are three others there, hiding in the thicket just like you," Oro whispered.
Xia Fei gritted his teeth. Not only was Yujiang and Yuhua opposing each other, there was also a third force on the island. The situation was extremely chaotic!
"Patriarch, why do you have to go through all this trouble? It's only because of the Divine Beast Green Dawn that you've managed to last until now. Now that the Divine Beast is injured, it's only a matter of time before you lose, "Yuhua softly said. Xia Fei was stunned. He suddenly understood why Yuhua would appear in two places at the same time.
Yujiang coughed, but before he could say anything, the python behind him, Green Dawn, actually spoke first. "I am the Divine Beast Guardian of the Yu family. Back then, the ancestors of the Yu family subdued me and entrusted me with the heavy responsibility of protecting the family. Even if I die in battle in the ancestral shrine today, I will never lower my head. How can the likes of you profane the dignity of a Divine Beast? Even if you become the patriarch one day, there will no longer be a Divine Beast to continue protecting the Yu family. My blood will not be shed in vain.
The exotic beast race shall sever all ties with the Yu family. "The Divine Beast Green Dawn was over a hundred meters tall, and its voice was as deep as thunder. This was not the first time Xia Fei had heard an exotic beast speak, so he was not too shocked.
Yujiang had relied on the Divine Beast Green Dawn's help to hold on until now, but alas, the Divine Beast Green Dawn was already heavily injured, and Yujiang would not be able to hold on for much longer.
Xia Fei's first thought was to return and ask the Law Enforcement Board to break the restriction and rescue the patriarch, Yujiang. Unfortunately, Oro's words had rendered him immobile.
"Don't act rashly. Someone is using their mental energy to scan the forest," Oro sternly said.
"Who?!"
"The people hiding in the forest over there. One of them is a captor."
This was when old Yujiang shook his head and said, "Sir Green Dawn, you've guessed wrong. What Yuhua wants isn't the position of patriarch but that item."
Yuhua burst into laughter. "Patriarch, you're the one who's wrong. I want that item, and I also want the position of patriarch."
Yujiang knitted his brows. "Thirty years ago, I offered the position to you, but you clearly rejected it!"
Yuhua pursed his lips. "Thirty years ago, since you mentioned it, I'll settle the score with you. Don't think that I don't know that when you invited me to the Elder Council that day, you were actually secretly setting up an assassin. The moment I agreed to your proposal, I would immediately die a horrible death!"
"Would I have dared to accept it under those circumstances?" Yuhua coldly asked. "To tell you the truth, the reason why I left the Yu family was because I had enough of the internal strife within the family, but it was you! You were the one who set up a trap to test me, and that's why I truly wanted to kill you! "
Yujiang was slightly stunned, seemingly shocked by Yuhua's words.
Xia Fei was speechless. The internal strife within the family was indeed very troublesome. Yujiang usually only cared about fishing, looking like an old man enjoying the rest of his life, but it turned out that he had such a complicated background.
"You've been good to me all these years, but if I didn't voluntarily withdraw from this power struggle, would you have let me go?" Yuhua barked.
Yujiang sighed and actually began to applaud. "Retreating in order to advance. Truly a good move, even tricking me."
Yuhua pointed with a black crescent blade and sternly said, "Now that things have come to this, I'm not afraid to tell you that I want the position of patriarch, but the Nine Night Plum is wanted by someone above! If I don't give it to you, there's no way you'll be able to walk out of Snake Isle alive! "
Shock!
Incomparable shock!
There were thirty Immemorial Mystical Armaments, and seven of them were of the wood element, known as the Seven Plants of the Cloud Sea. They were Duanshan Leaf, Unparting Pine, Warping Sea Lotus, Scattered Star Chrysanthemum, Nine Night Plum, Howling Moon Willow, and Peacock Blue.
