Chapter 805: Dominating Capital Clone, The Chasm is Hard to Cross
The massive vortex formed by the combination of flames and seawater was torn apart directly, and the storm created by countless strands of Dao force was also punched through, leaving a hollow!
Dao force at the Profound Scene level can influence the minds of all living beings within a certain range, and can also manipulate the heaven and earth spiritual energy within that range.
Therefore, Dao force at this level can harness the power of heaven and earth, and its might is astonishing!
When Qi Zhou unleashes Profound Scene Dao force within his own 【Spirit-Parasite Thousand Shadow Domain】, he is like a fish in water, and the power is elevated even further.
As a result, the power combined from the two styles of Dao force was still forcibly torn apart by Li Fei!
Within the Martial Dao Domain, the heaven and earth spiritual energy was in a state of chaos, and the dark red light barrier trembled incessantly.
A golden streak of light rushed toward the two clones at supersonic speed.
Snap! Snap!
The two clones were blasted apart, and Li Fei revealed his figure once again.
Throughout the entire process, Qi Zhou could clearly perceive all of Li Fei's movements, yet he could not stop them.
His 【Thread-Pulling】 had just been forcibly snapped, and before he could "reconnect" to Li Fei, the two clones, who were merely at the Dao Foundation stage, were like paper under Li Fei's blade!
Qi Zhou's expression was somewhat gloomy.
This meant that once his position was locked onto by Li Fei, even he himself could be in danger!
A Martial Dao Master, actually capable of posing a threat to him?
Glancing at Qiu Zi'an, who was in the process of re-condensing her Martial Dao Domain, Qi Zhou did not intend to keep dragging this out.
He knew that Qiu Zi'an intended to force an outburst to shatter his Martial Dao Domain, so he would not give her that opportunity.
Capture Li Fei first, then flee far away; by not giving Qiu Zi'an a chance to fight to the death, he could wear her down until she died!
Several hundred meters away, a Northern Barbarian warrior over three meters tall stepped out of a house.
Following this movement, an invisible force spread in all directions, blowing the entire house to collapse.
Behind this clone, two brilliant stars lit up, then shattered, and two powerful forces were injected into the clone's body.
This was a Martial Dao Master with dual divine abilities, and under Qi Zhou's control, he shattered all the implants that formed the two divine abilities to unleash the most extreme beast-transformation!
Within this Northern Barbarian tribal branch camp, there was a powerhouse from the Ba Capital.
The moment Qi Zhou landed, he set his sights on this person, controlled them with 【Thread-Pulling】, and then used 【Spirit-Parasite】 to suppress their mind.
With the suppression of the Martial Dao Domain, this Ba Capital powerhouse was no match for him at all; after holding out for only a moment, they were "refined," their mind was mostly devoured by 【Spirit-Parasite】, and their body was controlled by 【Thread-Pulling】, turning them completely into a puppet.
If it weren't for his wariness of Li Fei's "Great Dao Body," the target Qi Zhou would most want to 【Spirit-Parasite】 would actually be Li Fei!
When this Ba Capital powerhouse underwent beast-transformation, Li Fei was in the middle of exchanging blows with a new clone.
The Ba Capital powerhouse was completely shrouded in shadows, silently rushing toward that side.
Li Fei turned and snapped the threads on his body, sweeping his Ghost-Slaying Blade, but still only struck an afterimage.
The newly appeared clone only skirmished with Li Fei, and relying on the restraint of 【Thread-Pulling】, made it very difficult for Li Fei to finish them off for the time being.
He did not unleash his super-limit power again, just dragging it out with this clone.
In any case, 【Blood Rage】, once strengthened to the limit, could last for ten minutes; as long as he didn't use super-limit power, his Blood Soul wouldn't be consumed, and he could drag it out with Qi Zhou for a long time.
The clone dodged, suddenly rushing to Li Fei's left side, and slashed a blade toward Li Fei's neck.
Li Fei did not dodge or evade, turning to the left to swing his blade.
Just as the blade edge was halfway through its arc, hundreds of transparent threads appeared on the blade, pulling in the opposite direction.
The Ghost-Slaying Blade stalled, and the clone immediately threw away the blade they had been wielding, stepped forward, and grabbed the Ghost-Slaying Blade with both hands!
Layers upon layers of force were crazily added onto the Ghost-Slaying Blade, and giant mountains appeared out of thin air, continuously crushing down on Li Fei.
Dao force—【Thousand-Fold Mountain】!
Rumble—
The ground where the two were located sank, forming a large pit with a diameter of over thirty meters.
Li Fei realized something was wrong; above his head appeared a semi-transparent circular mirror, and the mirror surface was reflecting the scene of him and the clone inside the large pit.
The next instant, the mirror surface shattered.
Like a dense honeycomb, every shattered piece of the mirror reflected the image of Li Fei and the clone being torn apart by spatial cracks!
Divine Ability—【Heavenly Mirror】!
Under the strengthening of the 【Spirit-Parasite Thousand Shadow Domain】, Qi Zhou's 【Spirit-Parasite】 can seize the initiative, controlling others' minds to use their martial arts and divine abilities.
Previously, those Dao Foundation stage clones possessed martial arts that were too weak, so Qi Zhou had to "substitute" for them.
But this Martial Dao Master clone was different; Qi Zhou was effectively gaining two more divine abilities to use!
As the 【Heavenly Mirror】 shattered, the Golden-Thread Jade-Scale Armor on Li Fei's body developed dense cracks, and the golden light on his skin did the same.
The 【Heavenly Mirror】 divine ability inflicts damage by shattering space; even if it only creates localized spatial cracks, the lethality is extremely astonishing!
Qi Zhou indeed had no lethal divine abilities, but fortunately, the clone did.
At the same time the 【Heavenly Mirror】 shattered, a shadow emerged behind Li Fei, and the controlled Ba Capital powerhouse hammered both fists heavily toward Li Fei's back.
The muscles in their forearms rippled like waves, and force surged toward the knuckles in layers, instantly completing the stacking of one hundred layers of force.
Their own force, Qi Zhou's force, and the power of the entire small world were combined into one at this moment, all stacked upon this pair of fists!
Boom—
Li Fei was sent flying like a cannonball, smashing through a dozen wooden houses in succession.
The golden light on his body finally shattered; the defense of his Golden Body and Jade Marrow had been broken!
This blow reduced Li Fei's Blood Soul by more than 300, and he slammed a foot into the ground, collapsing it while simultaneously stopping his momentum.
Just as he turned to face the newly appeared Martial Dao Master clone, bronze-colored stone lotuses suddenly surged up from the ground within a hundred-meter radius.
One stone lotus appeared right under Li Fei's feet, and as the first petal of rock closed, he felt as if ten thousand tons of lead and mercury had been poured into his legs; at the same time, a terrifying suction force came from underground.
Divine Ability—【Earth Lotus】!
Although the lethality of the 【Heavenly Mirror】 divine ability is astonishing, it has one limitation: it must first reflect the enemy in the mirror surface, maintaining it for at least 0. seconds.
The range of the mirror's reflection is at most thirty meters, which many powerhouses can pass through in an instant.
Therefore, the second divine ability refined by this Ba Capital powerhouse was a range-control technique—【Earth Lotus】.
When 【Earth Lotus】 was activated, transparent threads hung onto Li Fei once again, and the heaven and earth power of the Martial Dao Domain pressed down like a mountain, also concentrating on him.
Two divine abilities plus the power of a small world pinned Li Fei to the spot!
Having an extra control-type divine ability was even more effective than the two styles of Dao force from before.
Another new 【Heavenly Mirror】 appeared above Li Fei's head.
Li Fei did not hesitate, decisively completing the hand seals within his body and erupting with super-limit power once again!
Rumble—
Li Fei sank his waist and sat into a horse stance, exerting force downward with his legs; the ground collapsed into a crater the instant he exerted force, all the stone lotuses in the pit turned into fragments, and the transparent threads on his body snapped one by one!
Li Fei's figure had already vanished from the 【Heavenly Mirror】 in the sky, but the figure of the Ba Capital powerhouse had also disappeared, hidden away by 【Shadow-Cover】.
There was only one such Ba Capital powerhouse in the entire branch, so Qi Zhou naturally couldn't use them as a one-time consumable.
He had already seen that while Li Fei's physical strength was indeed terrifying, that power capable of completely breaking free from control and even influencing the entire small world was not something Li Fei could possess indefinitely.
That must be a form of outburst.
So he controlled this clone to strike once and then change locations, hiding well with 【Shadow-Cover】.
Once Li Fei's outburst ended, 【Earth Lotus】, 【Thread-Pulling】, and the power of heaven and earth would control him again.
Li Fei could only use his super-limit power again.
Just like that, stone lotuses surged from the earth time and time again, and were trampled into pieces time and time again.
It was as if a terrifying giant beast was leaping back and forth within this area, creating an earthquake!
This Northern Barbarian tribal branch camp was almost reduced to ruins.
Within the 【Spirit-Parasite Thousand Shadow Domain】, besides Li Fei, Qiu Zi'an, Qi Zhou, and the Ba Capital powerhouse he controlled, there were no living people left.
Li Fei had used his super-limit power five times in a short period!
After the fifth outburst, when he was controlled for the sixth time, Li Fei did not use his super-limit power again, allowing the 【Heavenly Mirror】 above his head to reflect him in the mirror surface.
Snap—
The mirror surface shattered, and the golden light on Li Fei's body was also covered in cracks.
However, 【Heavenly Mirror】 alone was not enough to completely break his defense; it still required that Ba Capital powerhouse to "finish him off."
Li Fei was waiting for the opponent to appear.
"Can't you burst out anymore?"
Qi Zhou, hiding in the shadows, had flickering eyes; he did not control the Ba Capital clone to appear, but instead unleashed 【Heavenly Mirror】 once again.
After beast-transformation, this clone could unleash the 【Heavenly Mirror】 divine ability continuously!
"Damn it!"
Li Fei looked up at the 【Heavenly Mirror】 reappearing above, unable to stop himself from cursing.
He hadn't expected that Qi Zhou, a dignified Grandmaster, would be so steady when fighting him, a mere Martial Dao Master?
There was no help for it; if he let 【Heavenly Mirror】 break his Golden Body and Jade Marrow, the losses would only be greater.
He could only unleash his super-limit power again, forcibly breaking free from the control.
After his Flying Sword Body completed its strengthening, the upper limit of the Myriad Blood Pearl increased to 4847, and 【Blood Breath】 restored 50% of his blood volume in a short time, allowing him to recover to 2423 Blood Souls by last night.
During the few hours of travel this morning, he had recovered another 100-plus.
Before engaging with Qi Zhou, the number of Blood Souls in Li Fei's Myriad Blood Pearl was 2578, and there were 1126 in the Blood Spring.
Using 【Blood Rage】 consumed 1000 Blood Souls, and the combination of injuries and the consumption from super-limit power had used up another 1000-plus.
Now Li Fei had only 1700-plus Blood Souls left to use.
If he continued to fight like this, he would exhaust his Blood Souls within a minute!
Although his own state was not at its peak during this battle, this fight allowed Li Fei to clearly see the gap between himself and a Grandmaster.
Before last night, Li Fei's assessment of himself was that he could barely contend with a Martial Arts Master of the Six Supernatural Powers.
After obtaining the 【Refining Objects】 supernatural power and using the Heaven-Mixing Compass to strengthen his flying sword body, he felt he should be able to contend with a Martial Arts Master of the Seven Supernatural Powers.
Yet even for a Martial Arts Master of the Seven Supernatural Powers, there still existed an insurmountable chasm between them and a Grandmaster!
While he was certainly not in his peak state, Qi Zhou at this moment was also not in his strongest form.
The opponent could control at most two clones simultaneously, and right now, he was only controlling one Martial Arts Master of the Two Supernatural Powers.
Therefore, theoretically speaking, Qi Zhou's strongest form should be controlling two Martial Arts Masters of the Seven Supernatural Powers simultaneously, while coordinating with his Martial Arts Domain and his own supernatural powers to engage in combat!
Even if controlling two Martial Arts Masters of the Seven Supernatural Powers was too ideal and the probability too low, even if this current clone were replaced by a Martial Arts Master of the Four or Five Supernatural Powers, Li Fei would have had a much harder time fighting.
He turned his head to glance at Qiu Zi'an, who was still condensing her Martial Arts Domain.
This exchange had only lasted for a little over a minute; it would take Qiu Zi'an at least several more minutes to re-condense her Martial Arts Domain, and it would be very difficult for Li Fei to drag things out that long.
He sent a voice transmission to her, then once again unleashed his transcendent power.
A streak of golden light tore through the air, snapping threads and crushing stone lotuses, arriving at the edge of the 【Spirit-Parasite Thousand Shadow Domain】.
"Not good, he's trying to escape!"
Qi Zhou reacted immediately.
But he had no way to stop Li Fei, who was in a transcendent state.
Arriving at the edge of the Martial Arts Domain, Li Fei once again unleashed his transcendent power and slashed out with his blade, breaking through layers of heaven and earth spiritual energy and causing the entire 【Spirit-Parasite Thousand Shadow Domain】 to vibrate violently!
The next instant, a crack was forcibly slashed into Qi Zhou's Martial Arts Domain by Li Fei!
Li Fei took a step forward and just like that, forcibly charged out of the 【Spirit-Parasite Thousand Shadow Domain】.
Without the suppression of the Martial Arts Domain, all three of his supernatural powers could be used, so 【No Distance】 was activated again, and he instantly appeared a hundred meters away.
Qi Zhou's expression was gloomy as he immediately retracted his Martial Arts Domain.
In the blink of an eye, Li Fei had already used 【No Distance】 to run several hundred meters, putting a distance of over a thousand meters between him and Qi Zhou.
Qi Zhou was a Grandmaster at the peak of the Flourishing Realm, and the maximum coverage of his Martial Arts Domain reached the limit of a thousand-meter radius.
This meant that he did not need to fully catch up to Li Fei; as long as he kept the distance between them within a thousand meters, he could instantly release his Martial Arts Domain to suppress Li Fei.
But now, the two were already over a thousand meters apart.
Qi Zhou soared into the air, and the Badu expert he controlled was pulled along by the 【Pulling Threads】, also soaring into the air.
The two sped toward the direction Li Fei had fled, covering over four hundred meters in the air in one second, trailing a series of sonic booms!
Unfortunately, it was still not as fast as 【No Distance】.
Qi Zhou could cover over four hundred meters in a second, but Li Fei could use 【No Distance】 ten times in a second!
In the wilderness, the jungle was dense and surrounded by mountains.
Li Fei was not flying in the sky, nor was he running on the ground; he was using 【No Distance】 to teleport, leaving behind absolutely no traces.
Therefore, after chasing for only a few hundred meters, Qi Zhou had completely lost Li Fei's trail; below was a vast primeval jungle where not a single shadow could be seen.
He had no idea in which direction Li Fei had run.
*Swish—*
Qi Zhou abruptly steadied his figure in the air and turned to look back at the place where they had just fought.
He saw Qiu Zi'an, her entire body wrapped in a golden sphere of light, also soaring into the air and flying off in the opposite direction!
Qi Zhou quickly made a decision and turned to chase after Qiu Zi'an.
He could not catch Li Fei, but he could certainly catch this severely injured Grandmaster.
In the jungle, seeing Qi Zhou turn to chase Qiu Zi'an, Li Fei did not hesitate and immediately used 【No Distance】 to follow!
In the air, Qiming transformed into a stream of light, flying at three times the speed of sound.
His plan to have Borhu help him block the power of Yunshu's Dao laws had failed, so he could only execute his backup plan—to find Qi Zhou.
Qi Zhou's 【Spirit-Parasite】, under the reinforcement of the Martial Arts Domain, could seize the initiative and control others' minds.
But it could at most control Martial Arts Masters, and it was difficult to control Grandmasters because everyone had a Martial Arts Domain; after mutual cancellation, 【Spirit-Parasite】 would not only fail to be strengthened but would instead be weakened.
However, Qi Zhou alone could not control a Grandmaster.
It was different with Qiming's help.
Qiming's backup plan was for him and Qi Zhou to rendezvous, then find the headquarters of one of the seventeen Northern Barbarian tribes; he would help Qi Zhou control the Tiandu experts inside, then activate the headquarters' protective formation to block Yunshu's Dao law power for him.
He had left a tracking magic treasure on Qi Zhou, which could track Qi Zhou's position at any time.
According to their agreement, Qi Zhou would strike at a critical moment to interfere with Bai Yan, then find an opportunity to eliminate Li Fei, and finally rendezvous with him.
Qiming did not dare to strike at Li Fei directly for fear of being locked onto by the means left behind by Yunshu, but Qi Zhou did not care about that.
According to Borhu's description, Qiming knew that Qiu Zi'an had already been severely injured, and he had also discovered the remains of those Imperial Camp soldiers, indicating that all the Imperial Camp soldiers had sacrificed themselves.
Under these circumstances, with a prepared mind against an unprepared one, it would be very easy for Qi Zhou to succeed.
But what made Qiming feel puzzled was, why was Qi Zhou still moving at high speed toward the Northern Border?
"Could it be that he hasn't succeeded yet?"
