Chapter 722 - Demonic Lightning Battle Will
Rumble.
Thunder resounded throughout the heavens and earth as Qin Tiangang’s figure turned into a streak of lightning as he soared towards the heavens, along with extremely violent Spiritual Energy fluctuations rippling throughout the entire region.
Nine Nether raised her head with a cold flash circulated in her slender eyes. Shortly after, she turned her head towards Mu Chen and said, “I will deal with Qin Tiangang. I’ll leave the Demonic Lightning House to you.”
Right now, the troop that could stand on the stage was only the Nine Nether Troop. The other forces were far in comparison to the Demonic Lightning House.
“Leave it to me.” Mu Chen lightly nodded his head. Although Qin Ling’s cultivation had reached the Third Grade Sovereign, he was fortunate to have recently managed to break through to Second Grade Sovereign. Furthermore, regarding control of Battle Will, Mu Chen was confident that he wouldn’t be any weaker than Qin Ling.
“I will swiftly deal with him.” Nine Nether nodded her head and did not stay any longer. She tapped her feet and appeared behind the blackbird. The blackbird let out a long cry as it flapped its wings. A violent gale swept between the heavens and earth as the massive figure turned into a black light and soared into the heavens.
Qin Tiangang stood above the heavens, at a height of a few myriad feet away from the ground. The strong gale was biting cold, only an expert of his cultivation would dare to battle at this height.
He crossed his arms before his chest and looked at the massive bird that appeared before him, flapping its wings. Looking at the slender figure on the bird again, he faintly smiled. Both of his fists were tightly clenched as the greyish-black lightning looked like pythons as they swam out from the surface of his body.
Tsk! Tsk!
Lightning flickered as Qin Tiangang’s figure seemed to have expanded a loop. Generally speaking, those that practised lightning-attributed Spiritual Energy possessed a powerful physical body, and Qin Tiangang was apparently the same as Mu Chen, who had refined his physique.
“You can only blame yourself for being blind and placing your target on my Demonic Lightning Sect.” Qin Tiangang sneered as he looked at Nine Nether.
Hearing his words, Nine Nether did not bother speaking to him as her feet lightly tapped the air. The bird let out a long cry as it flapped its wings. Majestic Spiritual Energy swept out and formed into black feathers that rained down on Qin Tiangang.
“Puny tricks.”
Qin Tiangang clenched his fist as greyish-black lightning abruptly burst out, forming into a lightning barrier that shrouded him. When those black features came in contact with the lightning barrier, they shattered into sparkling light as they faded away.
“Really?”
Nine Nether’s rosy lips lifted as she pointed her finger out. Suddenly, amongst the black feathers that covered the sky, a feather with a strand of purple flames appeared and charged into the lightning barrier with a rustle. And this time, as the purple flames surged, it combusted the lightning barrier to nothing. The feather was like a sharp sword that was aimed at the vital spot in the centre of Qin Tiangang’s brows.
This sudden attack caused Qin Tiangang’s face to change. However, he was still a Fifth Grade Sovereign expert, so he immediately threw a palm out with lightning surging in the centre of the palm.
Boom!
The palm and feather with purple flames clashed. In that instance, violent Spiritual Energy fluctuations wreaked havoc. Qin Tiangang’s figure flashed, and he appeared a few hundred feet away. He lowered his head and looked at the centre of his palm, which was charred black, and his face turned dark in an instant.
“Do you think that your lightning energy can resist my Undying Flames?” Nine Nether’s lips lifted a smear of mockery.
“Hmph.”
Qin Tiangang coldly snorted as he stomped his feet. Greyish-black lightning that was like an ocean burst out from his body. In a few breaths’ time, the clouds in this region had turned into black thunderclouds as terrifying Spiritual Energy fluctuations could be clearly sensed, even by those that were a few myriad feet down.
When a Fifth Grade Sovereign was enraged, the might was indeed something that could shake the heavens and earth.
Nine Nether swept her hand out as a pitch-black Spiritual Energy burst out from her body as well. Within the torrential black waves, purple flames surged and even caused space to severely distort.
The two huge terrifying powers each occupied half of the horizon. That confrontation was similar to that of meteorites clashing together.
Two cold gazes intertwined in the sky, and in the next instant, two figures turned into light figures as they flew out. Behind them, the torrential Spiritual Energies were like tidal waves as they clashed.
Boom!
A startling Spiritual Energy gale wreaked havoc within the heavens, even the biting cold gale was shattered apart. The radius of a few myriad feet was covered by the two Spiritual Energies.
It was a battle that was bound to be shaking to the core.
Countless gazes were directed towards the commotion in the heavens and they inwardly smacked their lips. Shortly after, those people shifted their gaze downwards. Both Nine Nether and Qin Tiangang possessed fearsome strength, so the outcome of a confrontation of that level wasn’t something so easily separated.
And since the outcome of the battle in the sky could not be determined so quickly, the battles bellow was clearly more important. The outcome of that battle would also affect both Nine Nether and Qin Tiangang. The moment a confrontation of that level was distracted, a mistake could be easily revealed.
Countless gazes in this region were directed at the two figures that stood before the Nine Nether Troop and Demonic Lightning House.
Under those countless gazes, Qin Ling also gave Mu Chen a smile. “Since the Sect Master has already issued an order, I really can’t let you guys off today.”
He clearly had quite a bit of self-confidence. The Demonic Lightning House had an advantage in quantity compared to the Nine Nether Troop, and between the two Commanders, his cultivation was at Third Grade Sovereign, so it could be considered as suppressing Mu Chen.
He also had the dazzling achievements that he obtained by leading the Demonic Lightning House for all these years, so he was confident that he could disregard this new Domain Lord of the Great Havenlaw Domain, whose fame had just recently risen.
“It's just that the outcome of the battle will probably leave Commander Qin Ling disappointed.” But faced with Qin Ling’s confidence, Mu Chen calmly smiled.
“Haha, truly courageous.” Qin Ling gave a thumbs up as a smear of a cold smile lifted on the corner of his lips. “But things are interesting this way, as well. I hope that you will not let me be disappointed. I loathe those that are only capable of talking!”
Boom!
Along with his voice, Qin Ling stomped his feet as his figure burst forth. Lightning resonated throughout the sky behind him as the Demonic Lightning House turned into a pillar of lightning and soared into the horizon.
At the sight of this, Mu Chen lifted his palms up as well.
“Mu Chen, be careful.”
Tang Bing said softly, since Qin Ling already possessed cultivation of a Third Grade Sovereign, which was stronger than any of the Four Great Domain Lords of their Great Havenlaw Domain. Although the fighting capability of a troop wasn’t decided by individual strength, it had a decent influence as well.
“I’ll leave this to you, then.” Mu Chen nodded his head. Right now, the battlefield was split into three, with Nine Nether and Qin Tiangang taking one part, while the Nine Nether Troop and Demonic Lightning House took another one. Amongst this chaos, the various forces of the two parties would definitely attack as well in an attempt to restrict the other party.
“Rest assured, they won’t be able to interfere with your battle.” Tang Bing lightly smiled. Her smile was rather calm, since she had already communicated with the various forces of their Great Havenlaw Domain faction. Once the battle began, she would temporarily control the situation.
Seeing the girl’s confident smile before him, Mu Chen no longer spoke as he lifted his palm and abruptly waved down, his gaze turning sharp as well.
“Nine Nether Troop, let's go!”
“Yes!”
An orderly thunderous rumble rang out as the Nine Nether Troop immediately rose from the ground, turning into a black cloud as they soared into the horizon and appeared before the Demonic Lightning House with their boundless Battle Will spreading out.
Mu Chen’s figure moved, appearing directly above the Nine Nether Troop. The majestic Nine Nether Battle Will was like a black ocean as it gathered around him.
Qin Ling’s expression was indifferent as he looked at Mu Chen. Shortly after, he lifted his hands with an indifferent resonating voice.
“Demonic Lightning Battle Will!”
Behind him, under the black metallic armour of the Demonic Lightning House, there were gazes filled with violence. Shortly after, deep thunderous rumbles rang out.
Boom!
The lightning in this region flickered as countless greyish-black Battle Wills that were like pythons soared into the horizon and converged behind Qin Ling. That scene was immensely majestic.
“I’ll take a look and see if there are any commendable points of the Nine Nether Domain Lord, whose fame has been spreading like wildfire in the Great Havenlaw Domain!” Qin Ling smiled as he extended two fingers shortly after and lightly pointed down at Mu Chen from far away.
Boom!
A lightning Battle Will, with the size of roughly a hundred feet, burst out like an enraged dragon as the brilliance that was brought forth in that instant caused countless gazes in this region to be directed over.
The lightning Battle Will swept over and appeared before the Nine Nether Troop in a flash. However, just when it was about to slam down, the black Battle Will swept out, forming into a feather shield.
Boom!
Two forces clashed with violent fluctuations wreaking havoc. But the frail-looking feather shield did not shatter, even at the end. When the last lightning Battle Will was exhausted, only then did it slowly dissipate.
This scene made countless experts from both parties narrow their eyes. Because judging from the scale, the Demonic Lightning House clearly had an advantage, with their Battle Will looking more rampant.
However, the attack launched by them was so easily resisted by the Nine Nether Troop.
“Formidable, I have long heard of Domain Lord Mu Chen’s feat of defeating the 5,000 Blood Hawk Troop with the 1,000 Nine Nether Troop. After witnessing today, it looks like the rumours were true.”
“Looks like Domain Lord Mu Chen’s control over Battle Will has far surpassed other Commanders.”
“...”
Over in the Great Havenlaw Domain’s direction, many experts couldn’t help exclaiming out as their tensed heart was eased. They were worried that Nine Nether would be distracted upon Mu Chen’s defeat. If the Nine Nether fails, then their side would undoubtedly suffer a great defeat.
Boom!
Mu Chen calmly looked at the fading lightning before him up on the sky as he raised his head, his black pupils were looking at Qin Feng with sharpness comparable to blades in the depth of his eyes slowly surging forth.
“Today, I’ll take a look who will be destroyed!”
He abruptly formed seals with both his hand. In that instant, the boundless Nine Nether Battle Will surged at a violent, swift speed. In just a few breaths’ time, the sky had turned dark, so much so that even the violent roaring of thunder was suppressed entirely.
He who had been ease and calm had finally begun to show his fangs.
