Chapter 1482: Come If You Want to Die
Chapter 1482: Come If You Want to Die
"Come die if you want!" Zhang Lie shouted, holding his longsword horizontally before him and prepared for the possibility of an extended battle. He intended to demonstrate his strength to ward off any further challenges.
Just as the golden-haired man was about to strike once again, countless illusory arclight dragons streaked across the sky. The golden-haired man frowned, taking action to defend himself.
A familiar voice accompanied the starlight. "Captain, I'm here!"
"[Light Dragon's Remnants]!"
Li Feng marshaled his genetic energy into the form of a large number of white dragons.
The huge commotion had attracted Li Feng's attention. He was shocked to sense a familiar energetic fluctuation amidst the battle of titanic proportions. He headed toward the fighting to witness Fang Yi and Zhang Lie arrayed against a dizzying bevy of cultivators. Zhang Lie had been surrounded; Li Feng immediately stepped in.
"Scram!" The golden-haired man punched forward and obliterated the whole flock of arclight dragons.
Although Li Feng had come at an inopportune time, the fact that he had shown up at all had Zhang Lie nodding to him in thanks.
"[Dance of the Incandescent Wyrm]!"
Li Feng summoned dozens of serpents, flaring with blinding light. The golden-haired man stretched his arms wide and tore apart the void, the canvas on which these dragons flew.
"Captain, leave this cultivator to me!" Li Feng glowed with light, stepping forward to ward off the enemy from Zhang Lie.
Zhang Lie nodded and left immediately.
"[Arclight Dragon's Imprint]!" Li Feng waved his left arm, around which a torrent of light-attuned genetic energy was gathering. It took the form of a gigantic dragon's claw, bearing down on the golden-haired man like a beam of light.
"I said, scram!"
The golden-haired man dashed downward at extreme speed, leaving a trail of golden afterimages behind. He struck at Li Feng's skull with his foot.
A burst of thunder erupted in the air alongside his stride. Golden light exploded forth across the void.
This was unbridled arrogance and clearly insulting toward Li Feng.
"You don't have the right to be my opponent!"
The golden-haired man stared disdainfully at Li Feng, intending to stomp him to death to display his martial prowess.
"Kill!" Li Feng shouted, his hair scattering in the wind. He had once stood calm; now, he strode to action like a demonic statue that had been animated, his eyes sharp and piercing, an aura of fighting intent billowing around him.
His right hand formed a seal that he raised high into the air. It exploded like a blazing sun. An infinite expanse of light shot into the heavens, toward the golden-haired man.
The fact that Li Feng's opponent was being so impolite stoked his own anger. He struck at the sole of his opponent's foot, attempting to obliterate it.
The two cultivators clashed in an explosion of light. Energy scattered. This was a confrontation between two cultivators at the peak.
Li Feng had to admit that the golden-haired man was particularly skilled. His foot alone would have sufficed to crush a mountain and turn it into dust, to cause the very ground to crack open. Against a skull, it was easy to contemplate how much damage that foot could cause. A body would instantly turn into a cloud of bloody mist.
Li Feng rose up, cleaving the light and unleashing his ultimate technique.
"Break!"
The person stood high in the air, foot glowing with light. Golden runes emanated from him and formed a map of the constellations beneath his foot, as though the stars themselves were bolstering his attack.
"I reign supreme over the universe, having conquered many and many a star. I strike only to take down geniuses. How can a nameless piece of trash like you hope to be my opponent?"
Only a cultivator of exceptional strength could be so arrogant.
"[Light's Bulwark: Draconic Fist]!"
Li Feng clenched his fist. His right arm, clad with light, was covered with scales. The scales began to move as an arclight dragon materialized, howled, and rushed forward.
The blow felt as though it could destroy anything it encountered.
Even the cultivators fighting afar could sense how terrifying this blow was. It caused the very void to quake, distorting space in its vicinity, as it exploded.
All this happened under the cover of lightning. Li Feng's fists glowed brightly, exploding with light.
He shattered the map of the constellations, tearing it up and burning it to a crisp. Lightning followed his movements in a brilliant display.
Li Feng's fist struck the sole of his opponent's foot and drew blood. Bone cracked. The foot shattered, its glow fading, crippling his opponent.
"What right do I need to kill you?" Li Feng's fists transformed into claws, grabbing at his opponent's foot and tugging downward. Bone and blood appeared.
The cultivators watching the fight unfold were shocked. Had this youth defeated his opponent already?
With a crack, Li Feng wrenched the foot free from his opponent's body in a shower of blood.
The cultivators gasped.
The air filled with fog and turned hazy.
"Hm?" Suddenly, Li Feng sensed that something was wrong. He didn't hear his opponent shout or cry out in pain, and his surroundings were getting blurry. This wasn't the sign of impending victory.
Then, he looked down and saw that the foot he had wrenched from his opponent's body had transformed into a small piece of vine. The blood became golden liquid.
"A vine?"
"Who's this? Isn't this his actual body?"
The spectators were shocked. They looked all around for the golden-haired man.
Four golden vines appeared within the fog soundlessly, grabbing onto Li Feng's four limbs. Then, they began to emit a tremendous quantity of golden light.
"Break!" the golden-haired man commanded coldly. His body couldn't be seen; only his pupils shone luminously from within the fog. He intended to tear apart Li Feng's limbs.
"Release!" Li Feng shouted. Light blazed from his body, piercing through the vines and tearing them apart. He tensed up, breaking the vines in crisp snaps.
The four golden vines fell to the ground, while the golden-haired man in the distance sniffed loudly as he suffered the backlash from his attack.
The fog vanished, revealing the golden-haired man anew. Golden flames danced around him.
"I know who this is, now—it's the divine heir of the Solarvines, the successor of the Redgold Hall, the elder brother of Resplendent Sun, Coruscant Sun!"
Everyone was shocked.
"Coruscant Sun isn't as renowned as his brother, but he's supposedly no weaker—no, he's even stronger!"
Zhang Lie had likewise been hindered by the vines. His opponent was the same Redgold cultivator as before, but Zhang Lie sliced him apart with a single slash of his blade. The cultivator reverted into a piece of vine.
