Chapter 472: Roaring Across the Sky, The Wrath of the Peak

In the air, a golden and a red ray of light passed by at high speed one after another.

After reaching the realm of Grandmaster, even without flying-type supernatural abilities, one can possess the ability to fly.

Their Martial Arts Domain is equivalent to a small world formed by themselves, just like bubbles can float in water. Grandmasters only need to keep their Martial Arts Domain in a state of half-retraction and half-manifestation to fly freely in the great world.

As for the flight speed, it is related to the strength of the Martial Arts Domain.

If one possesses flying-type supernatural abilities, the flight speed will naturally be faster, and the air combat capability will also be stronger.

It's just that Qiu Zi'an and Qi Zhou both did not have flying-type supernatural abilities.

Normally, Qiu Zi'an is a Spirit Derivation realm Grandmaster, the strength of the Martial Arts Domain is above Qi Zhou, and the flight speed will be faster than Qi Zhou.

But she was severely injured first, and the consumption was huge, and even maintaining the Martial Arts Domain was very difficult, so even if Qi Zhou was still carrying a clone, her flight speed was only a line faster than Qi Zhou, and it was difficult to persist.

Qi Zhou also relied on this point to conclude that he could definitely catch up with Qiu Zi'an.

The two chased and fled, lasting for three minutes.

Ahead, Qiu Zi'an's speed slowed down.

Seeing this, Qi Zhou immediately activated 【Shadow Concealment】, a shadow shrouded him and the clone, and the two disappeared in the air.

He knew that Qiu Zi'an would not keep fleeing, because both sides knew clearly that if she kept fleeing, Qiu Zi'an would not have a single chance of survival.

Qiu Zi'an's only chance of survival was to fight!

And Qi Zhou could see that with the other party's current state, she could at most condense the Martial Arts Domain into a blade aura and slash out one Spirit Derivation realm attack.

Qi Zhou certainly would not easily let Qiu Zi'an slash himself.

He didn't even open the Martial Arts Domain, directly controlling the clone to launch 【Heavenly Mirror】.

A translucent round mirror appeared above Qiu Zi'an's head, Qiu Zi'an snorted coldly, and accelerated to dodge.

The next second, thousands of threads entangled the golden light ball on her body surface.

Qiu Zi'an only needed to unfold her Martial Arts Domain to easily resolve these two supernatural abilities.

But with her current state, unfolding the Martial Arts Domain is easy, but it is very difficult to re-condense it into a blade aura and not release it.

So she did not use the Martial Arts Domain, just activated her supernatural abilities.

Purple flames appeared out of thin air, burning the threads entangled around.

But with such a delay, 【Heavenly Mirror】 had already completed the reflection within 0.5 seconds and shattered with a bang!

Thousands of fragments reflected the shattered golden light ball and Qiu Zi'an inside.

The golden light ball on Qiu Zi'an's body surface fluctuated violently, but it did not shatter.

This light ball was produced by the highest-level Peace Token, which in theory could block the full-force strikes of a Dao-Establishing realm peak Grandmaster several times!

Changing to a Peak-realm Grandmaster, it could block for a period of time.

Now facing the supernatural ability attack of a Martial Arts Master, it could naturally block for longer.

But this light ball produced by the Peace Token could not exist forever; even if there were no attacks, after thirty minutes, this light ball would automatically disappear.

Qi Zhou actually didn't care how long the Peace Token on Qiu Zi'an could be maintained; he only knew that with Qiu Zi'an's current state, maintaining the Martial Arts Domain into a blade aura, condensed and not released, absolutely could not be maintained for long!

Anyway, as long as it dragged on until Qiu Zi'an could no longer maintain the Martial Arts Domain, he could easily win.

The purple flames spread along those threads, and soon burned all the threads completely.

Qi Zhou decisively disconnected the control of 【Thread Manipulation】, not letting Qiu Zi'an follow the vine to find the melon and lock on his position.

Those purple flames burned all the threads and suddenly exploded toward the surroundings, forming a rain of fire.

These rains of fire happened to hit the reappearing 【Heavenly Mirror】, and actually ignited this round mirror, rapidly burning it into a translucent amber shape, and finally dissipated completely!

You know, the mirror surface formed by 【Heavenly Mirror】 is in the space interlayer. Ordinary attacks hitting it will directly penetrate, and it is impossible to damage it at all.

As a result, the purple flames hit by Qiu Zi'an could even burn the space interlayer!

Qi Zhou had expected this long ago, and retreated backward to pull away the distance, dodging the fire rain erupted by Qiu Zi'an.

This purple flame hit by Qiu Zi'an was not a single fire-type supernatural ability. She had five supernatural abilities in total, with one fire-type supernatural ability as the core and the other four supernatural abilities assisting, strengthening, and matching together, to practice this purple flame.

This purple flame could not only ignite other people's force, qi, blood, and mental power, but also ignite the space interlayer, and even supernatural ability power could be ignited!

When Qiu Zi'an was still a Martial Arts Master, she once ignited an opponent with the 【Indestructible】 supernatural ability with this purple flame, and then it only took a few minutes to exhaust the opponent's supernatural ability power, and finally burned it into ashes!

Just now in the 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】, Qiu Zi'an actively gathered her Martial Arts Domain, so this purple flame could not be used to help Li Fei.

Now she had completed the condensation of the Martial Arts Domain, so that Qi Zhou dared not release the 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】 again, so her purple flame could form a deterrent to Qi Zhou.

Seeing that the erupted fire rain failed to find Qi Zhou, Qiu Zi'an's mind moved, and ten thousand scattered fire stars suddenly centered on her and began to rotate at high speed.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

Countless purple fire stars formed a giant vortex with a diameter of more than a thousand meters in the air!

The flight speed of these purple fire stars all exceeded ten times the speed, looking like only a little bit, but they could drive a large amount of airflow around.

Soon, a giant tornado took shape, and the strong wind power uprooted the towering trees on the ground and rolled them into the air.

And whether it was trees, broken soil, or rocks, as long as they touched a little bit of fire stars, they would be burned out instantly.

Qiu Zi'an used all five supernatural abilities on this purple flame, strengthening not only the power, but also the control.

Gathering and scattering at will, controlling the subtle!

The tornado affected a range of a thousand meters, and the countless fire stars in the wind were still absorbing heaven and earth energy, so the heaven and earth energy within a range of more than two thousand meters was also in chaos!

Qi Zhou did not expect Qiu Zi'an to have this hand, and the chaos of heaven and earth energy would also affect the effect of 【Shadow Concealment】, so he decisively cast 【Thread Manipulation】.

In the southwest of Qiu Zi'an, a thousand meters away, countless transparent threads appeared out of thin air, forming a giant net.

Once this net was formed, the surrounding strong wind and chaotic heaven and earth energy were calmed down.

Qiu Zi'an looked toward this side at the first time, determining that Qi Zhou must be within the range shrouded by this net!

While controlling the purple flames to ignite those threads, she flew rapidly toward that side.

The net formed by Qi Zhou was also spreading rapidly toward one side, but it was ultimately not as fast as the burning speed of the purple flames. When Qiu Zi'an rushed to this side, all the threads were burned out.

Countless fire stars flew toward the direction where the threads spread.

The strong wind whistled again, and the heaven and earth energy also moved accordingly.

"Found it!"

When a fire star disappeared abruptly, Qiu Zi'an immediately felt it and turned her head to look at that place.

She controlled the purple flames subtly, and those countless scattered fire stars were equivalent to her eyes!

When she rushed toward the place where the fire stars disappeared, a group of dark red light suddenly bloomed from that place.

【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】 reappeared!

It's just that the range shrouded by the Martial Arts Domain this time was only a few dozen meters.

The larger the range shrouded by the Martial Arts Domain, the more heaven and earth energy it could affect.

And the smaller the range, the higher the "sturdiness" of the Martial Arts Domain.

Qi Zhou only unfolded a 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】 of a few dozen meters, which was the limit he could compress, clearly wanting to hard-carry this blow from Qiu Zi'an.

But Qiu Zi'an did not immediately slash the blade aura she had already condensed toward the front, but suddenly turned around and flew toward another direction, and at the same time slashed the blade aura without hesitation!

The crescent-shaped blade aura burning with purple flames appeared, and the heaven and earth energy within a thousand meters was driven by it, surging toward this side like waves.

On the route of the blade aura slashing, hundreds of meters away, a figure suddenly appeared, it was Qi Zhou!

It turned out that he separated from the clone just now, and then deliberately controlled the clone to fly in one direction, and at the same time used 【Thread Manipulation】 to form a net rapidly in that direction, creating a fake appearance that he was breaking out in that direction.

After Qiu Zi'an flew over, he deliberately controlled the clone to take the initiative to hit a fire star, exposing the clone's position.

The last and most critical step, he used the clone to cast 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】!

The clone has his spirit and his three supernatural abilities, and can also form a Martial Arts Domain, but the power will be smaller, and the clone uses the Martial Arts Domain, so Qi Zhou himself cannot use it.

So this technique is actually relatively chicken-rib.

Qi Zhou used it at this time, just to cheat Qiu Zi'an's last life-fighting blow.

But it was seen through by Qiu Zi'an!

When Qi Zhou and the clone separated, Qiu Zi'an roughly locked on the two areas through the changes in heaven and earth energy.

After the clone took the initiative to expose and released the 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】, she figured out Qi Zhou's tactics.

If this one in front was the main body, it was impossible to separate from the clone, so it was inevitably the bait thrown out by Qi Zhou.

So she immediately controlled a large number of fire stars to fly toward the other area she locked on, thereby determining Qi Zhou's position, and then slashed out her life-fighting blow without hesitation!

All this seemed complicated, but in fact, the psychological game between the two sides was only in a flash.

Qi Zhou decisively lifted the 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】 cast by the clone, and at the same time controlled the clone to cast a secret technique, burning itself, and erupting regardless of everything!

Five 【Heavenly Mirrors】 stood in front of Qi Zhou.

In the mirror, the moon-shaped blade aura burning with purple flames arrived in a flash.

The first 【Heavenly Mirror】 was slashed and broken by the purple blade aura before it could actively shatter.

The second 【Heavenly Mirror】 actively shattered 0.1 seconds before the blade aura touched the mirror surface, causing a bit of weakening to the purple blade aura with space power.

Then the third, the fourth...

After all five 【Heavenly Mirrors】 shattered, Qi Zhou finally unfolded the 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】.

The purple blade aura slashed into the dark red Martial Arts Domain, slashing directly into it like a hot knife cutting butter!

【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】 was like a shattered porcelain, shattering into pieces in the air, revealing Qi Zhou inside.

Boom, boom—

Until this time, the sound of violent thunder rang out in the air, and then the sound of heaven and earth energy surging like monstrous giant waves.

With just one blade, Qiu Zi'an made Qi Zhou face life and death!

Seeing that the blade aura was about to slash Qi Zhou's body, a thunderbolt suddenly appeared, shot out from Qi Zhou's chest, and hit the blade aura slashed by Qiu Zi'an.

Boom!!!

The thunderbolt was also slashed to pieces by the purple blade aura, but the momentum of this blade was almost exhausted, and Qi Zhou took the opportunity to dodge to the side, avoiding this blade.

This thunderbolt was an one-time magic tool refined by Qiming for him, and its power was enough to be comparable to the full-force strike of a Peak-realm Grandmaster!

As one of the founders of the Xintian Society, he naturally also had a trump card for life-saving.

"Pfft—"

Qiu Zi'an in the distance spat out a mouthful of blood, bleeding from seven orifices, and had completely lost the power to fight again.

But she still stared at Qi Zhou, with hope in her eyes.

"If Qi Zhou is a member of the Xintian Society, he will inevitably have life-saving trump cards we don't know about. Even if my last blade can slash his Martial Arts Domain, it may not be able to kill him."

"As long as President Qiu can slash his Martial Arts Domain and force out his trump card, I have the confidence to kill him!"

This was the conversation between Qiu Zi'an and Li Fei before she gathered her Martial Arts Domain.

Before Li Fei rushed out of the 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】, he finally said to her:

"The plan remains unchanged, President Qiu, find an opportunity to force him to use his trump card, and leave the rest to me!"

Now, Qiu Zi'an successfully slashed the 【Spirit-Parasitizing Thousand Shadow Domain】 and also forced out Qi Zhou's trump card. She could only believe that Li Fei would not disappoint.

In front of Qi Zhou, a figure suddenly appeared, it was Li Fei!

"How is it possible?!"

Qi Zhou opened his eyes wide fiercely.

Before, when he was chasing Qiu Zi'an, he had always been paying attention to the rear and did not see anyone flying in the air.

And if Li Fei had been using 【No Distance】 on the ground to travel, the journey of these few minutes would be enough for him to exhaust his supernatural ability power.

So he didn't understand how Li Fei followed.

In fact, Li Fei had been using Sword State: Shadowless and Formless all the way.

Although this move was not as good as 【Shadow Concealment】, it could still deceive Qi Zhou when the distance was relatively far.

After all, Qi Zhou also did not have perception-type supernatural abilities.

If it were in the Martial Arts Domain, Li Fei's move would certainly not be able to escape Qi Zhou's perception.

But at this moment, Qi Zhou's Martial Arts Domain had been broken by Qiu Zi'an.

Li Fei raised the Ghost-Slaying Blade with both hands, his eyes cold:

"Die—"

The blade edge slashed down, super-limit power erupted!

Qi Zhou was too late to re-condense the Martial Arts Domain at this time, and could only erupt force with all his might, forming heavy water curtains in front of him.

The surrounding heaven and earth energy also frantically poured into the water curtain. Li Fei felt as if a vast ocean had suddenly appeared between him and Qi Zhou, and his ears were full of the sound of waves.

Dao Force—【Waves Curtain】!

Facing the "vast ocean" in front of him, Li Fei did not hesitate at all, the Ghost-Slaying Blade carried an explosive power of over twenty thousand tons, and slashed down with one blade.

Swish—

The ocean was split from the middle.

One blade cuts the sea!

The blade edge broke through the heavy water curtains and fell toward Qi Zhou's head.

"Don't even think about it!"

Qi Zhou's eyes were ferocious, dense threads appeared on the Ghost-Slaying Blade, frantically pulling the blade edge.

At the same time, a powerful spirit force forcibly broke into Li Fei's heart lake.

【Spirit Parasitizing】 activated!

Without the strengthening of the Martial Arts Domain, 【Spirit Parasitizing】 could not reverse the guest and host, but it could eat the target's spirit and at the same time cause an impact on the target's spirit.

Previously, because Qi Zhou feared Li Fei's "Great Dao Body," he had never used 【Spirit Parasitizing】 on Li Fei.

But now that life and death were in an instant, he couldn'

Qi Zhou appeared within Li Fei's heart lake, standing over a thousand meters tall, his entire body shimmering with golden light, like a god!

With just one step, he caused Li Fei's heart lake to splash with giant waves, churning endlessly.

This was a struggle at the level of the mind and spirit.

The Ten Thousand Blood Pearl could deflect direct mental attacks, but it could not provide immunity to control at the mental level.

It just so happened that Qi Zhou was not using 【Spirit Parasitism】 at this moment to attack Li Fei, but to influence Li Fei's mind, thereby influencing his body.

Within the heart lake, a sea of blood like a galaxy hanging in the nine heavens suddenly descended from the firmament, crashing into Qi Zhou and dragging him into it!

After Qi Zhou launched 【Spirit Parasitism】 against him, Li Fei also exerted his full strength to activate 【Blood Might God】.

Now, the upper limit of 【Blood Might】 had become 484 blood souls; its power doubled in the 'Blood Demon State', and by fusing with mental power to form the unity of martial arts and magic, its power increased once more.

Yet Li Fei still felt it was not enough; he activated the 【Refining Matter】 divine ability, instantly refining another 200 blood souls into mental power, which he fused into this strike of 【Blood Might God】!

Boom—

Inside the heart lake, Qi Zhou's massive body shattered with a roar!

"Heh, so this is the ending."

Before Qi Zhou's consciousness dissipated, he left one last sentence in Li Fei's heart lake.

In a trance, he seemed to see that snow from many years ago again:

Jiawen Year 17. Yushan City. Loyal to the monarch and serving the country, the Qi family colludes with the enemy.

Everything could never go back.

The clash at the mental level lasted only for an instant.

In the air, the Ghost-Slaying Blade continued to slash downward, and the silk threads binding the blade snapped one by one.

The blade edge finally swept across Qi Zhou's body from top to bottom.

A white air shockwave flew out from the direction of Li Fei's strike, spreading for over a thousand meters, slicing through the sea of clouds above all the way, as if cutting the firmament asunder!

Boom!!!!

A massive thunderclap finally sounded in the air at this moment, shaking the wilderness.

This blade, a violent strike across the sky!

This blade, a powerful strike to slay a Grandmaster!

Three thousand meters away, Qiming suddenly stopped flying, his eyes widening as he looked into the distance.

His techniques granted him ultra-long-range vision, so he clearly saw this scene in the distance:

Qi Zhou's body split from the middle, cleaved vertically into two halves.

The immense force blasted the two halves of the body to either side, fresh blood splattering everywhere, revealing Li Fei behind them.

"No!!!"

Qiming's angry voice rolled toward the distance like thunder.

Even when his most critical plan was ruined by Li Fei in Lanling City back then, he had never been as angry or lost his composure as he was at this moment.

Qi Zhou was the best, and only, close friend he had in this life.

"I want you to die—"

Qiming charged toward Li Fei in a rage!

The terrifying aura of a peak powerhouse, even from several thousand meters away, still made Li Fei feel an overwhelming, terrifying pressure!

With the number of blood souls he had left, even if he exhausted them all, the Ten Thousand Blood Pearl could not be upgraded, and he could not replicate that scene from Lanling City.

Li Fei could only exert his full strength to activate 【No Distance】 to teleport continuously in the opposite direction, getting as far away from Qiming as possible.

He hid in the jungle; it would be hard for Qi Zhou to find him, but that did not mean Qiming could not find him either.

He dared not gamble, so after landing and hiding in the jungle, he continued to activate 【Hun Tian Golden Palace】 to absorb the primordial energy of heaven and earth, replenishing his losses, and then frantically activated 【No Distance】.

But the power of divine abilities was also composed of a martial artist's 'essence, Qi, and spirit'; 【Hun Tian Golden Palace】 could only replenish innate Qi, not blood, Qi, or mental power.

Therefore, if Li Fei used 【No Distance】 hundreds of times in a row, his mental power would be exhausted, and the power of his divine abilities would be gone.

However, with the 【Refining Matter】 divine ability, he could solve this problem:

Activate the 【Refining Matter】 divine ability, consume blood souls, and convert them into mental power!

The composition of divine ability power was sixty percent innate Qi, twenty percent blood and Qi, and twenty percent mental power.

Li Fei had 【Hun Tian Golden Palace】 to continuously replenish innate Qi, and the 【Refining Matter】 divine ability to continuously replenish mental power.

As for blood and Qi, the blood and Qi brought by Li Fei's immense vitality were incomparably vigorous, so he did not need to worry about the loss for the time being.

Of course, constantly using divine abilities would also cause wear and tear to the implants themselves.

However, Li Fei could also use the principle of 'equivalent exchange' of the 【Refining Matter】 divine ability to consume his own vitality to compensate for the wear and tear of the implants.

Therefore, as long as his blood souls were not used up, he could keep using divine abilities!

In the blink of an eye, Qiming crossed a distance of a thousand meters, pulling a series of sonic boom clouds in the air.

And Li Fei had activated 【No Distance】 more than a dozen times, flickering continuously in the jungle.

But he soon discovered a despairing fact:

His movement speed when activating 【No Distance】 at full strength was still not as fast as Qiming's flight speed.

One 【No Distance】 could only teleport one hundred meters; Li Fei could use 【No Distance】 at most ten times in one second, which meant teleporting 1000 meters.

And Qiming's flight speed in the air exceeded three times the speed of sound, allowing him to cover over 1000 meters in one second!

If Li Fei possessed the realm of a Grandmaster, the teleportation distance of 【No Distance】 would be longer, and he would have a chance to shake off Qiming.

But now, he could only be caught up little by little.

The terrifying pressure coming from behind was getting closer and closer, and for the first time, Li Fei felt the threat of death!

Just as Li Fei was about to enter Qiming's spellcasting range, a brilliant azure star suddenly flew out from Li Fei's body.

This star was exactly the same as the one in Bai Yan's body back then, and it was also the power of Dao laws left behind by Yunshu.

The azure star flew toward Qiming!
