Chapter 1478: Pure and Chaste
The black spear sent wind howling and lightning flashing through the sky.
Chaotic lightning and howling winds formed as dozens of spear afterimages sent the competitors falling from the sky.
Zhang Lie looked toward the assailant.
Fang Yi had a pair of wings to his back formed of electrifying runes. A holy air suffused him. Electric arcs crackled loudly.
Zhang Lie smiled. "A timely appearance—perhaps too timely. Did you plan this?"
Fang Yi soared into the sky.
"[Tiger's Howl, Dragon's Bellow]!"
Fang Yi's spear took on the aspect of a dragon of the winds and a storm tiger as he charged forward.
Wind and storm roared around him, and his spear resonated with his genetic energy. The spear which the king of chaos had granted him demonstrated shocking strength, infusing chaotic energy into the mix and transforming into a huge spear.
The spear splintered; its fragments, composed of chaotic wind and void lightning, rained down on the competitors and pierced through them all. They left furrows in the ground so deep they seemed to reach toward the core of the virtual realm.
Fang Yi had blended in with the crowd. His sudden attack left them all shocked.
None of them had been companions to begin with—no, they had all been enemies. Even so, they weren't expecting to turn on each other just yet. They immediately grew alert as they cautiously watched those around them.
Fang Yi's wings of wind and storm beat loudly as he smiled wryly. "No one can make as much trouble as you do, Captain."
They had barely split up for half an hour, but Zhang Lie had already made himself public enemy number one once again. Who else was so talented in such fashion?
Zhang Lie laughed. "I thought I would have to face them all down alone."
Fang Yi rolled his eyes. "I was in the vicinity, and I heard the commotion. Someone shouted something about the silver-dragon lotuses, and I was about to join in the chase when I realized that you were responsible.
While the two hunters exchanged information, the other competitors and wild lifeforms in the lake had rushed over.
"[First Form: Parting the River]!"
Bright sword energy radiated from Zhang Lie like brilliant rays of sunlight, illuminating the entirety of the world.
A frightening force descended, energy rumbling and rippling around him. As Zhang Lie swung the blade in his hand, a huge slash of sword energy struck them all and forced them back again.
Fang Yi looked toward Feng Xian, who was likewise surrounded.
Feng Xian wasn't weak. Her mental attacks might have been useless against Zhang Lie, but were extraordinarily effective against the bulk of the competitors. Her physical body was particularly strong to begin with; even Zhang Lie found it difficult to deal her effective blows, let alone other cultivators.
In gaming terms, Feng Xian was like a tanky priest, one that would be incredibly difficult to take down.
Even though, against a whole crowd of people who had been told she might possess priceless treasure, against a series of attacks that illuminated the very heavens, she could only react passively.
Fang Yi asked, "Shall we help your good friend?"
Zhang Lie rolled his eyes. "She's not my anything. She was the one who lured so much trouble over."
Fang Yi leered. "A one-night stand, then?"
"I've never had relations with that woman."
Fang Yi cocked an eyebrow. "Of course not."
"Are you trying to imply something?"
The competitors and lifeforms from the lake rushed over again.
Zhang Lie thrust forward with his blade, causing slashes of energy to rain down like a silver storm.
The competitors and lifeforms transformed into glowing motes of light in mid-air, all trailing toward the back of Zhang Lie's palm.
Zhang Lie had killed so many competitors and lifeforms lately that he didn't even bother looking at the changes to the back of his palm any longer.
"If you're that free, stop thinking about this nonsense and help me deal with the trash instead."
Fang Yi augmented himself with temporal force, causing a local speedup of time in the vicinity.
"[Shadow and Light]!"
Fang Yi's appearance blurred into a hundred clones. Spear thrusts and strikes shot forward in every direction.
The sword and the spear intersected in mid-air. Attacks rained down on all the foes around them.
"What's our plan, Captain?"
Fang Yi and Zhang Lie were positioned back to back.
Zhang Lie's lips curled up. In this sort of situation, fighting alongside Fang Yi reminded him of similar cooperation in his past life.
"It's useless for us to kill all these competitors. We'll fight our way out," Zhang Lie said, drawing Hanguang.
With one slash, he cut apart countless competitors rushing toward him.
"I'll lead the way, then!"
Wind howled and lightning flashed. Purple lightning skimmed across the air, and howling gales manifested in the shape of dragons.
"[Heaven's Judgment]!"
The combination of wind and lightning generated a frightening force that seemed to be able to penetrate space.
Fang Yi shot forward and broke out of the enclosure with incredible momentum.
"Who dares attempt to use lightning against me? You are like a firefly against the full moon!" a cold voice called out. 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 young cultivator flew across the skies, long hair scattered over his back, his body lean and supple, every inch of muscle crackling with lightning. This was a true genius, one far stronger than the purplegold denglong that they had faced earlier.
"Stay behind!"
The lightning-imbued cultivator was far too fast. He blocked their way and punched at Fang Yi.
"Who are you? Get out of my way. As though you have a monopoly on lightning!" Fang Yi retorted. Rather than dodge, he thrust forward with his spear. freёwebnovel.com
The ground exploded. Lightning filled the realm as though an apocalypse were drawing near, stretching for hundreds of kilometers on end.
The lightning-infused cultivator was shocked to see his opponent still standing, bathed in holy light.
One of the bystanders shouted, "It's the son of lightning!"
"Allegedly, he was born out of lightning and was taken in as the disciple of some supreme force. He possesses incredibly pure elemental lightning."
"With the son of lightning here, neither of the two cultivators will be able to escape!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Yi was rather interested in this cultivator as well.
