A Three-Way Melee
Chapter 766: A Three-Way Melee
Ancient God and Demon Battlefield, command deck
"What's going on? Why did the image disappear the moment Xia Fei entered the ground? I'm dying of anxiety! "Hua Hei slapped the main control panel as he spat out.
The screen showed Moon Song, Xiao Yu, and the black and white birds together, but there was no sign of Xia Fei. It seemed that this system only paid attention to the situation on the surface of the battlefield, and Xia Fei had lost contact with the main control room after entering the ground.
Hua Hei was somewhat worried. Xia Fei was facing the Divine Beast Inverse Halberd Blackscale alone. Who knew how the battle was going? He had always been an impatient person, so he could not help but yell.
Lifting his head and crossing his arms, Hua Hei suddenly realized that his brother was nowhere to be found. He had no idea when he had left the main control room.
"Hua Bai!"
Hua Hei called his brother's name as he walked out of the room with furrowed brows, arriving in a dark and long corridor. Though the two brothers were always angry whenever they saw each other, they actually had a good relationship with each other, though neither was willing to admit it.
"Over here." Hua Bai's voice came from the other end of the corridor. Hua Hei hurried over and saw Hua Bai squatting on the ground, inspecting a sealed door.
This door was the only entrance to the main control room from the outside. Hua Hei looked at it again and again but did not find anything unusual. Hua Bai, on the other hand, quietly took out a carbon detector from his ring and measured the data on the mechanical valve over and over again.
"What are you doing?" Hua Hei curiously asked.
Hua Bai waved his hand, indicating for his brother to keep quiet. Hua Hei could only continue waiting curiously.
Several minutes later, Hua Bai stood up and showed the data on the carbon detector to his brother.
"This is the result of the carbon detector. The data shows that we're not the first to break in and charge into the Ancient Battlefield," Hua Bai said with a serious expression.
Hua Hei was startled and asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure? When we entered this place, everything was still in a dusty state. "
Hua Bai shook his head. "I can only say that these people did an excellent job. They managed to fool our eyes, but they couldn't fool this advanced carbon detector. A sealed door like this, which is mainly made of a mechanical structure, will leave a slight friction mark as long as it's opened, and the carbon detector will make it impossible to hide these marks."
"Then how long before this door was opened?" Hua Hei asked.
"One year, around one year before we entered. Along with the unfolding of the battle, I noticed that the current Primeval Battlefield is becoming more and more different from when we were young. Could it be that you haven't noticed? It seems like it was too easy for us to enter this place. Logically speaking, this base was personally built by those old farts, but we broke into it without much effort. Since we have the ability to enter, then others must be able to as well. That's why I thought of testing the main passage for carbon. You've seen the results. "
Hua Hei nodded and returned to the main control room with Hua Bai.
"Yes, the Ancient Battlefield of Gods and Demons has been abandoned for a long time. Not only is this the best place for us to hide, but it is also the best place for others to hide. Even the usually good-tempered Divine Beast Inverse Halberd Blackscale has become irritable. The Ancient Battlefield is indeed different from the past," Hua Hei muttered to himself.
…
The Black and White Gods discovered that they were not the only uninvited guests in the Ancient Battlefield, so Xia Fei naturally did not know about this. He was currently following Furball as he searched for traces of Szzesny.
Furball had really become Xia Fei's hunting hound, using his playful little nose to sniff and determine his direction. Szzesny's plan was undoubtedly a success, deceiving the Divine Beast Reverse-Halberd Blackscale, but he would never have imagined that while he could deceive a Divine Beast, he could not deceive a Holy Beast!
As a proud member of the Holy Beasts, Furball was naturally unwilling to take on the role of a search dog, for it was very humiliating. Holy Beasts should stand proudly at the peak of the universe and look down on all things, not lie on the ground and painstakingly search for traces left behind by their enemies.
However, since it was his master's order, Furball could not very well object. Truth be told, this was all thanks to Xia Fei. If it were anyone else, Furball would have fought them to the death! The world was vast, but the dignity of a Sacred Beast was the greatest!
* Whoosh! *
Furball was very fast, and under its guidance, Xia Fei entered a passageway that led downward.
"Strange. Szzesny didn't escape back to the surface after getting what he wanted, but instead headed in the opposite direction. What's the meaning of that?" Oro curiously asked.
Xia Fei smiled. "The most dangerous place is actually the safest. That monster was led underground by him, but it didn't find anything. Right now, its eyes should be on the surface of the planet. After all, it has already searched below the surface."
Oro was taken aback for a moment before he continued. "So Szzesny didn't return to the surface but went to where the monster just left! This is yet another trick! "
Xia Fei nodded, not saying a word.
"What a crafty enemy. Not only is Szzesny strong, but he's also not at a disadvantage when it comes to scheming. I'm afraid that he'll be a formidable foe for you!" Oro knitted his brows.
The deeper he went, the lower the temperature became, and a thick layer of ice began to form in the cave.
A frozen underground river lay in front of Xia Fei. With a light tap of his foot, Xia Fei did a somersault and soared through the air. Xia Fei noticed that there were several faint traces left on the surface of the frozen river. It was obvious that someone had already passed through this place.
Xia Fei's spirit was lifted. It seemed that he was heading in the right direction, and Furball was leading him to Szzesny's side!
…
The underground labyrinth became hazy with fog, and Xia Fei realized that he had been surrounded by white fog at some point in time.
"Fog? Law of Fog Concealment! " Xia Fei was startled. His expression did not change, but his body was ready to meet the enemy at any moment! Even Furball was beginning to get nervous, his beady eyes darting around as he muttered softly.
In the blink of an eye, Xia Fei suddenly felt a slight chill on his back. An extremely fast blade was closing in on him at an unbelievable speed!
Very fast!
Very fast!
There was practically no time for Xia Fei to react. Even the current patriarch of Heaven's Wings, Xia Buyun, would not be able to react faster than this sudden attack!
"Crafty Approach!"
Xia Fei muttered in his mind, his body twisting unbelievably. This was purely an instinctive reaction, and his reaction speed was even faster than Xia Fei's thoughts!
* Bang! *
Xia Fei let out a grunt. He had already dodged most of the attack, but his left arm was struck by the enemy's attack!
The armored unicorn had a very strong defense, and with the fact that Xia Fei's body was already in an irregular state of twisting, this attack had merely scratched the armor and did not deal any real damage to Xia Fei. All he felt was a burning pain in his arm.
"What speed!" Xia Fei exclaimed, his eyebrows knitted together.
Fog Concealment and Flash Strike were truly worthy of being the treasures of the Dark Pearl Tribe against high-speed warriors. Xia Fei had already given it his all, yet he was still unable to dodge this attack. According to his calculations, when Szzesny used Flash Strike, his instantaneous speed was very likely close to a million!
This was a speed of a million seconds! It was enough to instantly kill many of the so-called elites!
* Pa! *
After landing, Xia Fei used one hand to brace himself as he leaned his body sideways, his muscles tensed as he prepared to receive his opponent's next attack.
This was when a gloomy voice suddenly came from the layers of fog. "The warriors of the Heaven's Wings Clan are truly extraordinary. You actually managed to dodge it. Miscalculation, miscalculation."
The voice reverberated, and it was impossible to tell where it came from. The surrounding white fog was getting thicker and thicker, and visibility was already less than five meters. Xia Fei's heart was in his throat.
The corner of Xia Fei's lips curled up as he laughed. "You don't have to be so humble. You're not bad yourself."
Szzesny laughed maniacally while hiding in the fog. Though his voice was arrogant, it was deliberately suppressed. After all, this was the territory of the Magical Beast Inverse Halberd Blackscale. It would be bad if he attracted that monster.
"Though I don't know how you discovered me, I can't just let you go back alive since you're already here. Remember, though speed-type warriors are powerful, they're not invincible. Consider yourself lucky to have met me today. Profound Earth Pearl! Our Dark Pearl Tribe exists to restrain your Heaven's Wings! " Szzesny's words were very confident, as if he had already treated Xia Fei as his prey. He only needed to stretch out his hand to take Xia Fei's life.
"Pfft ~"
Xia Fei spat and said in a deep voice, "I don't think you'll like the feast I've prepared for you. Of course, I'm very fond of the things you don't like."
Szzesny, who was in the fog, was startled, not knowing what Xia Fei meant.
* Kaboom! *
Peacock Blue's five giant blades of grass suddenly broke through the air, recklessly launching an aimless attack! The entire cave began to shake and crumble, and gravel flew everywhere!
Even Furball went crazy, flying at high speed as he dived down, letting out a deafening roar!
Though such a large area of effect attack was very powerful, it was unable to harm Szzesny. Evidently, the Law of Fog Concealment was not something that could be broken with just a barrage of attacks.
Gradually, an unsettling roar began to get closer. Szzesny suddenly realized that Xia Fei's goal was not to attack him but to lure the Divine Beast Inverse Halberd Blackscale over!
"Ah!" Szzesny cried out in shock as he hid in the fog and quickly unleashed a flurry of attacks on Xia Fei! He was trying to end the battle as quickly as possible!
Xia Fei's figure was like a ghost, appearing on the left one moment and then the right the next. His movement technique was very strange and did not follow common sense at all.
This was Crafty Approach. The seemingly aimless movement was actually the best way to dodge. No matter how fast the Law of Flash was, it still needed a target. It was just like shooting; when Szzesny was about to attack, he realized that he was actually having a hard time aiming at Xia Fei. This was because Xia Fei's figure was everywhere, and there was no way he could tell which one was him and which one was an illusion!
What was even more bizarre was that Xia Fei's figure would appear in two or even three places at the same time! Szzesny did not know which one to attack!
Rumble ~ Rumble ~
While Szzesny was hesitating, the Divine Beast Inverse Halberd Blackscale's footsteps were getting closer and closer, bringing with it a boundless rage as it roared!
Xia Fei had always been good at fishing in troubled waters. No matter what kind of monsters were lurking in the Immemorial Battlefield, Xia Fei was determined to lure them all out!
As for the multiple Xia Feis that Szzesny could not identify, it was the effect of Delusion's cloning technique. He was now facing two Xia Feis! Two Xia Feis moving at high speed!
* Bang! *
A huge figure broke through the frozen wall and appeared deep underground. The Divine Beast Inverse Halberd Blackscale was here!
Szzesny was trying his best to lure the Divine Beast away, yet Xia Fei was determined to lure it back!
