Chapter 17: Intense fight between Martial Emperor

It was hell.

Hot magma filled the crater. Long, spread-out, and uneven craters formed in the yard. It was so hot that a mortal would melt down.

The light cut by the blade was replaced by another light practical at such a speed that even cultivators couldn't detect.

The once green, filled with flower land was close to a wasteland.

"Hah…Protagonist and his pawns…They really cause trouble," Chu Feng sighed, looking at the state of his yard.

It would take a while for it to be fixed.

He then glanced at Gu Ying'er, whose jaw was dropped.

"Hey, missy. Mind staring whether your ass is fine or not."

"Ah!" Chu Feng's voice startled her as she was in a daze.

Looking at Chu Feng, it wasn't just the same indifferent, disdainful eyes, but eyes filled with fear and curiosity.

That power…Where did it come from?

What talisman was that?

She wanted to ask but couldn't bear herself to. As a guard, she should just protect him, not ask questions. Not to mention, there was no way in hell he would be willing to tell the truth.

The difference in talisman just shocked her.

Talisman are very rare in this world. Those who can create talismans could be counted with two hands.

Each one is a top master that even the current empress respects.

Obtaining simple but strong talismans could be possible with money.

But talismans that can utilize the power of a Martial Emperor…

Heck no!

Even her talisman was imbued with Bai Ling spiritual energy. It was just some advanced talisman that she with great difficulty obtained. The original power came from Bai Ling.

That's why the power it displayed was just merely 1% of a Martial Emperor.

But Chu Feng took out a talisman that was absolutely extraordinary. Only the experts that Emperors themselves greatly respect could create one that can show the true power of a Martial Emperor.

Even if the empress wants those talismans, it would be hard, let alone someone not noteworthy like Chu Feng.

"Just be in a daze. I am off to witness something extraordinary," he smiled, not caring about her, and rushed to look at the scene of the battle between Martial Emperors.

However, as he got closer, he felt immense pressure falling on him. So he hurriedly flew up and rented a skill, 'Ultra Vision,' that cost him 1000 villain points per minute.

Damn, the system.

The prices are so high!

But was it worth it?

Hell yeah!

His eyes glowed and even from a kilometer away, he could watch the battle with extreme detail.

__________

The world shook.

Two women stared at each other.

The world suffered greatly. The air froze around them. Due to immense pressure, even the air couldn't survive.

Every particle in the sky fell down. Even lights flickered on and off, as each new light particle emerged and fell down.

The whole area was similar to an airtight room with disfunctioning lights.

Xia Lingshui, with her long silver sword that complemented her beautiful hair, took a deep breath.

Bai Ling wasn't idle. She disappeared instantly and appeared behind Xia Lingshui. Her golden dagger bolted towards Xia Lingshui.

Her speed was so great that light itself couldn't react. Bai Ling's afterimage was still looking at Xia Lingshui.

If any ordinary human were here, they would only see Bai Ling standing, and not her disappearance or even her attack.

Her attack was deadly too. The dagger tore the void and touched Xia Lingshui's skin.

But Xia Lingshui rotated her body and blocked the attack with her long silver sword.

Clang!

The sound of their swords colliding echoed. It was so loud that the sound waves could destroy buildings.

The entire city population would definitely hear it.

The immense shockwave released by their collision alone created a massive crater down below. The crater was so deep that the crater formed by the combined attack of Chu Feng and Gu Ying'er with their talismans wouldn't be a quarter of its size.

There was a huge difference between each realm.

Martial Apprentices are 10 times weaker than Martial Masters. Martial Masters are 50 times weaker than Martial GrandMasters. Martial GrandMasters are 100 times weaker than Martial Kings. Martial Kings are 1000 times weaker than Martial Emperors, and Martial Emperors are 10,000 times weaker than Martial Venerables.

The higher the realm, the bigger the gap in strength.

The difference in realm doesn't only show a gap in strength, but also in the quality of qi, quantity of qi, speed, reaction, defense, and more.

A single Martial Emperor can take down 1000 ordinary Martial Kings with ease.

Of course, if there's an anomaly like Lu Chen and Chang Rui, who are just prodigies with superior martial core, talent, and physique then they could defeat someone from higher realms.

That's why the protagonist and his companions are scary.

An ordinary cultivator in the same realm isn't their opponent at all.

That's why Lu Chen should die as soon as possible.

Chu Feng thought deeply as he was enchanted by the beauty of Lu Chen's master.

Xia Lingshui was a great beauty, and he definitely wished to violate her..

If worse came, and Bai Ling fell at a disadvantage, he would empty all of his Villain Points just to give an opportunity for Bai Ling to utilize.

Clang! Boom! Bang!

Chaos.

A simple word to describe the situation.

Pitiful Chu Feng's Mansion.

It was crumbling despite the thousand-year-old formation laid by his ancestors. The formation was destroyed, buildings crumbled, and there was nothing even resembling a settlement left.

Maids, guards, Lu family mother, and daughter had all escaped. Chu Feng had made preparations for this day, so everything went according to plan.

Sharp sword energy cut through the air but was avoided by Bai Ling, who teleported near Xia Lingshui and attacked her vital points.

Their speed, nearly surpassing the speed of light, was impossible to follow, even for Chu Feng with his ultra-vision skill that had improved his vision enough to see every detail on the Moon's surface.

"Sky Splitting Strike!" Xia Lingshui rotated her body and slashed with her sword.

A huge sword avatar appeared in the sky and slashed towards Bai Ling in 0.000001 seconds.

Bai Ling moved her body and utilized her technique, "Raining Dagger of Annihilation."

Instantly, billions of energy daggers, so condensed and sharp enough to cut down an entire planet as if a piece of butter, rained down on the sword avatar.

The two energies collided, followed by an ear-deafening, devastating KA-BOOM!

The extreme force distorted space, and cracks appeared in the void.

The sky trembled, the earth cried, followed by the death of any creature under their battle.

Large fireballs rained down, so hot that they turned into boiling lava upon impact.

Dark bombs exploded, unleashing sinister curses and enveloping the whole area in a dark mist.

The curses were so profound that not even bacteria could survive them.

Xia Lingshui frowned, but her protective shield kept her safe from the curses that were powerful enough to wipe out an entire empire.

Bai Ling teleported around Xia Lingshui, attacking her vital points with her dagger.

Xia Lingshui barely blocked those attacks and countered with superior techniques that made Bai Ling focus her energy on blocking them.

Their fight only continued for a minute. From the time they met until now, they had only fought for a minute as they were previously evaluating each other.

Despite their battle severely affecting the environment, Mother Earth showed her power.

Cracks in the void quickly recovered, just a millionth of a second after they appeared. There were no consequences, as the earth regulated everything.

Before their battle could continue, three men emerged. Both Xia Lingshui and Bai Ling were surprised and frustrated by the interruption.

But the situation turned favorable to Bai Ling as those men were sent by the empress.

The three men, all looking young, were more than ten thousand years old. They stretched their arms and created a barrier.

The transparent barrier blocked Xia Lingshui. Xia Lingshui's face turned dark as she tried to break the barrier.

But even with her full power that shattered the void, showing the fabric of space and time, it was not enough to break the barrier.

She couldn't even teleport and felt like her power was diminishing second by second.

Shit!

She cursed.

You unfilial disciple Lu Chen, what mess did you pull your master into?!
