Chapter 1422: In Mortal Danger |
"[Born of Lightning, Swallowed by the Wind], [Tiger's Howl, Dragon's Bellow], [Heaven's Judgment]!"
Fang Yi broke through the constraints of time and returned to the frozen world of gray, with him the only spot of color within. In this state, he was able to simultaneously manifest different techniques at the same time.
Wind and storm combined and crackled at the tip of Fang Yi's spear, imbuing it with sharpness and penetrating strength beyond measure.
Fang Yi compressed that energy again and again, until even the space around the spear started getting sucked in. The tip of the spear punched through space as though it were nothing more than paper.
The combination of elemental, temporal, and spatial energy at the tip of the spear multiplied the strength of Fang Yi's attack beyond what should have been possible.
Chaotic energy swirled over the spear.
Fang Yi combined [Born of Lightning, Swallowed by the Wind], [Tiger's Howl, Dragon's Bellow], and [Heaven's Judgment]—elements, time, space, and chaotic energy. All these sources of energy were stacked together, like buff after buff.
A dragon of purple lightning and tiger of green wind, shielded by a barrier of time and shrouded by black spatial energy, slowly began to manifest. Storm winds were sucked into the mix.
Wind and storm combined with space and time, a whole new combination.
The energy of chaos, which had the ability to destroy anything, spun amidst the howling winds.
Formless lightning flashed over the surface of Fang Yi's spear, gathering near its tip. The dragon of winds and lightning tiger prowled about the spear.
Part of the energy from the spatial rift seeped into the lightning-attuned genetic energy, turning it into void lightning.
The pitch-black lightning began to spike and sizzle.
The void lightning combined with the spatial rift that was forming and tore apart the space around Fang Yi. The manifold energies merged and tangled with each other, space and time, wind and storm, beginning and end.
Fang Yi sent a stream of each type of energy swirling and corkscrewing around the tip of his spear. As the forces continued to revolve around each other, the wheels of time behind Fang Yi began rotating more and more quickly as the space around him was strained to its utmost.
Fang Yi had combined seven different forms of energy: wind and lightning; their advanced counterparts, spatial rifts and void lightning; the fundamental forces of space and time; and chaos.
The spectators, protected by the will of the virtual realm, weren't affected by the temporal stasis. They cried out in fear upon seeing what Fang Yi was doing.
"What sort of technique is this...?"
This was the first time they had seen his sevenfold strike.
"Can these energies even be combined...?"
Dragon-like lightning, tiger-like storm, formless time, timeless space—those four disparate energies combined into a cohesive whole, tied together by a dark gold thread. The energies revolved around each other, summoning a howling gale surrounding a spatial rift.
Part of the energy from the spatial rift seeped into the lightning-attuned genetic energy, turning it into void lightning.
The pitch-black lightning spiked and sizzled. In combination with the spatial rift that was forming, the void lightning tore apart the space around Fang Yi, causing the frozen world of gray to crumble bit by bit.
All that energy, linked by the karmic power that Fang Yi had manifested, led to an unbelievably complex combination.
It was as though Fang Yi had placed all seven sources of energy into a blender and allowed them to combine.
The clash between the energy of chaos and that of time and space caused the wheels of time on Fang Yi's back to shatter one after another. His spear vibrated ceaselessly, and huge quantities of chaotic energy gushed out.
His hands trembled as the energies combined. At the most crucial moment, Fang Yi concentrated as the energy of chaos and spacetime merged into a brand new, mysterious strength, that of primordial chaos.
The combination of energies gave off such a fearsome aura that anyone would be worried upon sensing it. All around Fang Yi, space and time began to splinter and crack. Unusual pitch-black thorn-like protrusions appeared by the edges of Fang Yi's vision, seeming to skewer space.
The skin on his arms cracked. Veins protruded from his forehead and his arms turned bright red.
As Fang Yi concentrated on controlling the transformation, that energy took on the shape of a spear.
Fang Yi wasn't able to control the energy fully, but it was far less rambunctious than before. It grew even more chaotic and boasted a more frightening strength.
Against Fang Yi's chaotic spear, everyone could feel an astonishing sense of threat.
"[Stargod Seal]!"
Xing Yu shouted, reinforcing the seal in his palms once and again. Incredible light poured out from him and surged forth like a tsunami, completely occluding the arena.
Fang Yi's spear broke through the bombardment and clashed against the seal. Beneath them, the seal protecting the audience melted like ice. The impact of the shockwave alone turned some of the lightborne spectators into ash.
The overwhelming power Fang Yi had displayed caused many of the spectators to step back subconsciously. What manner of strength was this? They were being endangered just watching the fight from afar!
Others paid to spectate with money, but Fang Yi and Xing Yu's tournament could cost their virtual lives. Who had ever heard of the like?
Many of the spectators quickly logged out.
