"Impossible, how can you recover so fast." the old man roared, unwilling to accept his trump card was so useless. indeed, such a poison that was capable of killing immortals was not so simple. although Sora looked relaxed, the only reason he was alive was that he willed himself to life
The Azure Phoenix Cultivation art the immortal left behind was overpowered, so long as one willpower was strong and fought against death, then they shall live. but to die and come back to life from something like that, took up almost all of Sora's energy, right now he was only at 5% of his energy remaining
But with all that, Sora managed to break through, reaching level 8 within all of his 3 cultivation systems, which didn't do much to his strength since he had to balance out his strength so his law can be useful.
But thanks to Giga Chad's training, Sora's energy control and merging capability didn't drop. as Giga Chad said, the reason no one could master energy control and merging capability was that they thought too much. Sora although couldn't master energy control and merging, he was near it. a stage where his energy flowed to his wishes
yes his energy was low, but he could fight days with this small amount of energy, that was how good his energy control was. giving him a 24 times increase in his strength, while his merging capability brought him a 23 times increase in his strength.
getting up, Sora allowed them to make their avatar once more before the battle began, but thanks to what just happened, their will to fight had taken a noticeable drop, how could they still want to fight seeing as their enemies survived something immortals couldn't.
but they still had another trump card, they couldn't allow Sora to destroy the heavenly law palace, so with a thought, a formation came to life, Sora found himself trapped within a fog that blocked his senses. a powerful force suppressed his strength, causing it to drop by 50%, on top of that the fog came to life attacking Sora.
'By the time.' Sora thought as he through a Senzu bean into his mouth, restoring his energy to 100%, while at the same time jumping to the side, dodging a sword that was going to cut him. sure his senses were blocked, but Sora didn't need them, his instincts were what he needed. Sora didn't dare to be cocky, since this formation also suppressed his healing capability,
'Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.' Sora thought while taking deep breaths to calm and clear his mind. he was happy with himself that he managed to learn something like this, so when the time came for him to learn ultra instincts, it would be much easier
So, within a clear head state, Sora fought them and the fog, but although he was within this state, he suffered many injuries. but his movement was almost protected, his moves aimed at the weakness of the avatars, almost destroying them if the others didn't act quickly to stop him. at the same time, Sora almost destroyed the formations, with instincts alone, he knew where the weakness of these formations was at,
to make things worse, for the heavenly law palace, Sora's instincts were being tempered and sharpened while facing them. at the same time, Sora was comprehending their laws, and adding them to his own to strengthen his law. So, as the seconds went by, Sora's strength was growing, although hard to notice
Sora soon realized he was not only facing 6 avatars but over 10, it seemed like they caught back up. This only added more pressure upon Sora, but the more pressure the batter as it helped Sora grow stronger and stronger, but the pressure reached a point where Sora couldn't keep a calm mind, forcing him to have to focus on both law and fighting.
"You were cocky, foolish enough to attack us." a cold voice sounded through the fog as Sora shot backward, coughing up a mouthful of blood, only to kick off the ground to dodge another attack, just to be sent flying by another attack.
But his injuries were healing, but they were not giving the injuries time to completely heal, meaning Sora wouldn't get stronger.
While Sora was getting his ass kicked, outside the formations, Fang Mei and the others moved and attacked the heavenly law palace. thanks to the seeker, the heavenly law palace members who were attacking Sora were cut off from news entering the formations, so while Sora draw the attention of the strongest members of the heavenly law palace, they went on a slaughter with the others.
"Hurry so we can land him a hand, he already died once." Fang Mei said while transforming into a physique, and unleashing her flames down upon the heavenly law palace, the experts within quickly blocked, but they found that their attempts to block only added fuel to the flames
Purple mist surrounded Nu Chad, which devoured everything within its path. unlike the flames, this fog formed a domain around the heavenly law palace, devouring everything within, and sending it back for Nu Chad to absorb and grow stronger, or strengthen itself under her will.
Countless people began o dry up due to the fog, before falling to the ground as skeletons, but before their bones hit the ground, they were absorbed by her fog. nothing remained. Of course, absorbing so many powerful experts caused Nu Chad cultivation to start skyrocketing forward, but due to how much the energy was, she had to give it to her fog, allowing it to grow stronger,
Nu Chad fog fused with Fang Mei flames, creating a domain of flames where everything was fuel for their growth.
an avatar shot towards the two, wanting to stop all of this by taking out the source, but before the avatar could near them, a tree shot from the ground, slamming into the avatar and sending it flying.
"thats no way to treat your gust." Bing Wei said with a smile, creating a forest that surrounded the flaming fog domain. the avatar she sent shooting into the sky cut the tree apart, before shooting toward her,
this avatar had a power level of 56 million, she was no match for such a powerful avatar, she only caught it off, guard. and thanks to the seeker it was hard for them to sense her, but she was now sensed with that attack
Boom
an avatar slammed into the incoming avatar, shattering it into pieces, formed from the Shi clan's remaining member, the avatar shot forward with a power level of 175 million. it stood guard before Fang Mei and Nu Chad and fought the others, while Bing Wei had countless tree roots moved, making it harder for the avatars to gang up on the Shi Clan avatar.
"if this keeps going, the heavenly law palace is doomed." the experts watching this had smiles on, how could they not after seeing such a powerhouse fall? but something happened which caught them all off guard,
Bing Wei was stabbed through by a huge spear from an avatar, this caught everyone off guard, but when they turned around, they saw a role of avatars holding spears and shields gathering, and moving to attack
Bing Wei's body was thrown to the ground, as the avatar which attacked her moved to block the attack from another avatar that came out of nowhere. it wouldn't have sensed it, but the range coming off this avatar gave it away.
Yu Rou leading an angel avatar attacked, this was her master guild member and a high-ranking member at that. She was angry with herself for allowing something like this to happen,
ever since Yu Rou was taken in by Sora, she saw Sora like he was her master even though Sora didn't care for such things. In her eyes, Sora was the embodiment of power. someone who would reach heights like none other, so she devoted herself to helping Sora reach that, she didn't think she was worthy of anything else but being a servant.
"... how long are you guys up there going to watch, the Fang Clan already picked their side, what about you?" The Seeker's voice sounded next to the ear of the experts there, making them freeze for a moment, they wanted to speak, but an explosion came from the formations where Sora was fighting the top-rank experts,
a group of avatars shot out, slamming to the ground, followed by a group of Sora filling the air, looking coldly upon the avatar.
"Damn, you have balls to target my balls. don't you know how to play by the rule book? I don't go all out, and to pressure me until I get strong enough to easily handle you. thats how it should go, but your dumbasses don't know your places. do you think I couldn't end this battle if I wanted to?" Sora said angrily, indeed Sora had his ways to deal with this, but he didn't as he wanted to temper himself. but to try and slam a hammer into his balls, that was going too far
Sora looked at them coldly before his attention was drawn over by the roles of formations, and Bing Wei, who was using her law to hold on to life, but it was clear she could only hold on for a few hours at most.
"Sigh... well. I'm in no mood to play anymore. so, those watching. I will give you 2 options, the first is to leave. the second is to join this battle, I don't care which side you pick. but if you don't pick by the time she is healed up, I will consider you all my enemy if you choose to stay." Sora said calmly
Sora flashed over to her body and gave her a Senzu Bean. before everyone shocked eyes, the huge hole in her stomach closed up, and she returned to her peak. but many acted quickly,
"sigh, the heavenly law palace is deeply connected to me. I can't want it to be destroyed. your chances of winning are low, your group is surrounded, and you are low on number and strength. even if you are capable what about the rest." an old man said with a deep sigh while floating down, helping the heavenly palace members out. many joined the old man, siding with the heavenly palace, some even summoned portals to allow their forces to teleport over here, and support them.
"wow, no one joined us? damn, Yu She, you better have all of this recorded." with a sigh, he looked around him before clapping his hands, his energy exploded out, and with a thought thousands of weapons were created, all being heaven-shaking weapons.
some were clothing that covered Fang Mei, Nu Chad, and the others, while others were weapons that they held in their hands, gaining a huge power boost.
"I just realized I could have equipped you all with overpowered weapons. then again, I have an overpowered law which I only use to enhance my strength." Sora laughed while he entered the 3-head and 6-arm state, and within each hand, a sword was equipped. Sora said in the past he would only use a weapon created by himself, and these weapons were created using his law
Everyone was speechless by Sora's words, and since when did he use weapons? just by he held the sword, they knew this was his first time using a sword, but the sword was like a sword created from heaven and earth, it even had its effect which boosted one Strength, for now, it boosted Sora's strength by twice, but everyone else got a boost anywhere from a hundred to thousands
"Now, we got two enemies marked. the heavenly law palace, and the Fang Clan, two powerhouses are about to fall... so, you big shots want to join them, or us?" Fang Mei asked lost in her power, she cut all connection with her clan, the fact it dared to attack them meant they were now her enemies. in her eyes, she had had only Sora, no one else.
"..." The heavenly law palace experts' faces were not pretty seeing the countless clones which held weapons, along with Fang Mei and the others. so many being with power levels in the billions, they were doomed. those who just sided with the heavenly law palace froze
"... ancestor what have you done?" a young woman stumbled backward while looking at a screen which showed the happening at the heavenly law palace. the ancestor of the Fang Clan was shaking in horror
"w-where is Fang Yan?" The Ancestor asked in a soft voice, she messed up big time. She got annoyed that a little brat was disrespecting her and her clan, so she sided with the Heavenly Law palace, and now she was regretting doing that
"She fleed, the one inside the cultivation chamber was a clone she left behind ages ago." The woman said making the ancestor's face darken, she was wondering why Fang Yan didn't even bother to come to see her twin sister when she came or even answer her mother when she called, it turned out she ran away long ago. She was the hope of the Fang Clan
"Her Dao's heart was shaken when Fang Mei used the time crystal to look into her past, ancestor I told you it was a bad idea." the woman said making the ancestor glare at her before she waved her hand sending her flying while coughing up a mouthful of blood.
"another word and your head would be rolling... alert the clan, the main branch. we didn't come so far just to fail." She said coldly.
