Chapter 614: Dai Mubai

The elite squad led by Dian Wei followed behind the Qianjun Ant colony, surging into the city; they killed everyone they saw, unstoppable.

Though it was only a force of a thousand, they displayed the momentum of a hundred-thousand-strong army.

Although the Star Luo army was numerous, after being hit by one of Feihuang's soul skills just moments ago, most were already dead or wounded, and the survivors were like birds startled by the mere twang of a bow, their will to fight withered.

A group of withered cats—how could they possibly fight against an excited tiger?

Feihuang looked down at this scene from above, and at that very moment, a heavy flying hammer suddenly smashed toward him.

It was none other than Lieyang Douluo Tang Lie, who had been left behind to guard the city.

In fact, from the very first moment the earthquake occurred, he had been searching for Feihuang; after all, no earthquake would be accompanied by pillars of ice and fire—it had to be triggered by someone's soul skill.

Unfortunately, Feihuang's cultivation was truly too high; even when using a powerful soul skill, not a trace of his aura leaked out. Even a Title Douluo-level powerhouse as strong as Lieyang Douluo took quite a while to locate his position.

This angry hammer strike contained all of his soul power, and he employed the Kill Absolute from the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, which was known for having the greatest lethality and being unmatched by the masses.

"Hoo!"

Yet, facing such a powerful hammer, Feihuang merely blew a light breath, and the Clear Sky Hammer was blocked as if by a Category 10 hurricane, unable to advance even an inch, until it was bounced back into Tang Lie's hand.

"How is this possible? To blow back my Clear Sky Hammer, which weighs over ten thousand catties, with just a breath—who exactly are you?" Tang Lie's expression shifted from anger to terror.

Because such cultivation was something that perhaps even their old Sect Master Tang Chen might not possess.

Because the Clear Sky Sect had been in seclusion for too long, they hadn't even seen a portrait of the young talents on the continent, so naturally, he did not recognize Feihuang.

Feihuang did not answer him, but instead kept his left hand behind his back, extended a single index finger with his right hand, and said softly, "Come, let me see the power of the number one Tool Spirit under heaven, the Clear Sky Hammer!"

"Damn it, you brat, you're courting death!" Tang Lie's fear was once again replaced by anger.

Feihuang's actions were simply too provocative.

He was, at the very least, a Title Douluo-level powerhouse, yet this guy wouldn't even use his martial soul, implying he would deal with him using only a single finger—there should be a limit to how much one looks down on others.

"Tool Spirit True Body, Hammer Soul Clone!" Tang Lie dared not underestimate Feihuang, and from the start, he entered his strongest stance.

It was a dual-true-body form just like Feihuang's, but his seventh ring was not a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring; he had not achieved this with a single spirit ring, but by using two spirit rings in succession.

Moreover, he was not like Feihuang, who understood the art of multitasking and attacking from both sides, nor did he master two completely different sets of martial arts.

The techniques he used for both hammers were from the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, and he even used the same move for both—either both were the Break Absolute, or both were the Quake Absolute.

This method of usage could not unleash the true power of the Hammer Soul Clone at all.

But Tang Lie didn't have so many thoughts; he only wanted to use his Clear Sky Hammer to bend Feihuang's finger.

Feihuang shook his head in disappointment and flicked his finger lightly against the surface of one of the Clear Sky Hammers. An unimaginable, boundless force spread from the hammer's body to Tang Lie's entire being, actually forcing him to lose his grip on the Clear Sky Hammer.

Then, Feihuang's finger turned rapidly and tapped the other Clear Sky Hammer.

The scene Tang Lie imagined, of Feihuang's finger snapping, did not happen at all; instead, the surface of Tang Lie's Clear Sky Hammer cracked rapidly under Feihuang's single finger. Tang Lie's eyes were filled with terror, because the Clear Sky Hammer that Feihuang had tapped and cracked was not his Hammer Soul Clone, but his true Clear Sky Hammer body.

"What great power—could this youth... be a Limit Douluo?" Tang Lie suddenly recalled a story he had heard.

Back then, a generation of sword-dao powerhouses in the Spirit Master world, Chen Xin's father Chen Jianjun, a Level 97 Super Douluo, had a battle with the Limit Douluo Qian Daoliu. He unleashed the nine Kill Absolutes of the Seven Kill Sword Dao, but at the time, Qian Daoliu used only the force of the rebound to shake him to death, just as Feihuang was doing to him now.

Feihuang was even more exaggerated; he hadn't even used much soul power, yet with the immense force from a single finger, he had beaten his martial soul to the point of shattering.

To be able to do such a thing, one must be a Limit Douluo! "My name is—Nan Feihuang! A Level 99 Limit Douluo. Tang Lie, go in peace; I will soon send your clansmen down to see you!" Feihuang's finger extended once more, this time tapping Tang Lie between the eyebrows.

Due to the backlash of his shattered martial soul, Tang Lie was currently unable to move, nor could he dodge or resist.

A laser shot out from Feihuang's finger, piercing through Tang Lie's brain and killing him instantly.

Before Tang Lie died, he had only one thought in his mind: this youth was indeed the legendary Nan Feihuang. His strength had already exceeded imagination; this time, the Clear Sky Sect was likely in danger.

Gengxin City was taken by Nan Feihuang in less than half a day.

He did not rest to wait for the main army to arrive, but immediately dispatched troops again to attack cities in the Star Luo interior.

Previously, the Spirit Empire had attacked too slowly, which gave Star Luo time to react, and as a result, Gengxin City, which had been taken with such difficulty, was lost at the final hurdle.

A few days later, inside the Eastern Palace of the Star Luo Empire.

Tang San was absorbing the soul power of "Evil" Spirit Masters as usual. His current cultivation had reached the Spirit Douluo level through this; although he did not have the powerful spirit ring configuration of the original work—only the standard two yellow, two purple, and four black—his level was not much different.

And Dai Mubai was, as usual, holding his two twin concubines, enjoying himself.

This scene felt strangely familiar, just with the addition of Ma Hongjun, who was also holding a beauty.

This situation easily brought a few words to mind: joy begets sorrow.

"Mubai, it's a bit strange. The Gu Lei Kingdom has been an empire for some time now, so why haven't they made any moves? I don't believe Nan Feihuang would be so content," Tang San frowned and said.

"What of it? Perhaps Nan Feihuang is biding his time. Don't worry, Xiao San, with the two of us brothers joining forces, what is there to fear?" Dai Mubai ate a grape contentedly, closing his eyes and enjoying himself while being served by the pair of twin beauties.

Looking at Dai Mubai, whose actions were exactly the same as when the Spirit Empire attacked back then.

A golden light flashed in Tang San's eyes again. Once more, he had a sudden, ominous premonition, and he hurriedly ran to him and said, "Mubai, tell me, if Nan Feihuang is delaying his move, could it be that, just like the Spirit Empire, he is about to strike suddenly in a place we don't want to see?"

Dai Mubai's heart tightened, "A place we don't want to see—where is that?"

"It's bad, Cousin!" At that very moment, a purple stream of light, just like the one from back then, flew into the Eastern Palace; it was Bai Chenxiang of the Min Clan.

Tang San suddenly became nervous, "What's wrong, Xiangxiang? It wouldn't be..."

"The Gu Lei Empire... Nan Feihuang suddenly dispatched a large army and launched a surprise attack on Gengxin City. Now, Gengxin City has become a ruin, and their army hasn't stopped; they are advancing toward Xingluo City!" Bai Chenxiang said in one breath.

Dai Mubai was once again so frightened that his heart stopped; he almost couldn't catch his breath again. After finally calming his mood, he roared, "Damn it, again? Nan Feihuang is coming for me too!!!"
