Chapter 499: Star King (III)



Chapter 499: Star King (III)

Given Star King’s previous speed, turning back instantly was an impossible matter. But this arc showed that he was quite dexterous, letting him maintain an offensive power and speed that was directly proportional to his previous speed, minimizing the speed loss to the greatest possible degree.

The Fiend Commander had in his eyes a quite malicious grin. This time, he saw that knight move, a heavy sword flashing with golden light right in front of him.

The Fiend Commander could immediately determine that he possessed a human's Glorious Tier equipment, yet he still didn't see this knight as being worthy of a second glance. Although a Starlight Unicorn gave a good boost, the best known feature of this kind of magical beast was its lack of offensive power. The greatest determinant for the Starlight Unicorn’s utility was its knight’s strength. However, a knight wielding only a Glorious Tier piece of equipment, even if not weak, couldn’t possibly be a great opponent. What’s more, his own allies were right behind him.

In fact, Long Haochen was wielding his sword ‘Rippling Light’, which didn’t reach the Legendary Tier yet, although this piece of Glorious Tier equipment could be considered pretty good.

His mental force having received the boost from the Gold Essence Foundation Armor, Long Haochen could easily grasp the movements of that Fiend Commander as well as the fluctuations from his spiritual energy, and even find out about the contempt and disdain filling his opponent.

You dare show such disdain? You shall become my sacrifice in this case.

Rippling Light was lifted up above his head, and the next instant, an incomparably resplendent light burst out from this heavy sword.

Such brightness was akin to the shining sun, immediately producing a great illumination although carrying no light essence. But because of this light ray, the Fiend Commander and the Fiends chasing after him were distracted.

The next instant, the Rippling Light sword in Long Haochen’s hand came sweeping down.

Simple and direct, the chopping motion used the simplest basics of a knight’s abilities.

A bright, golden Light Edge came into being. But it seemed extremely natural, as if devoid of any energetic substance. This Light Edge couldn’t be considered long, only reaching a length of three meters, and caused the Fiend Commander to unconsciously use his black-flame emitting, blood-colored heavy sword to block it.

Clang.

The figures of Long Haochen and that Fiend Commander seemed to have merely bypassed each other.

The two parties took a split second to separate in mid-air. Bearing Long Haochen, Star King immediately rushed straight at the Fiends of the Seventh Step in the rear, as that Fiend Commander only kept rushing forward, showing no trace of turning back.

When his rush reached a distance of two hundred meters, that rush came to a sudden stop, and suddenly, an intense black liquid burst out in the air. The robust Fiend Commander had simply been cut in two in mid-air, and then fell from the sky.

No mistake, that was an insta-kill, which took only one blow.

Starting from when he sensed the appearance of these Fiends, Long Haochen was making preparations for the battle up to now. And once his power at the eighth step underwent Power Storing, one could well imagine the formidable might of his attacks.

Long Haochen understood clearly that his identity couldn’t be leaked. For this reason, he chose to use weapons and techniques that he had never shown the demons before. The abilities he was originally adept with could not easily be shown, and in these circumstances, he needed to change up some of his fighting methods.

Long Haochen’s previous attack was boosted by the Epic Tier Gold Essence Foundation Armor, which provided a large boost to his spiritual energy, and was in the Spiritual Highland state due to the addition of Star King’s spiritual energy. The attack clearly displayed the might from Spiritual Highland. The incomparably dazzling glow clearly came from that. Just think, could Long Haochen’s fully charged blow, which consumed over thirty thousand spiritual energy, be something that Fiend Commander could block?

Long Haochen had learned about the formidable power of Spiritual Highland through experience. The might from the Aria of the Goddess of Light coupled with his sword intent and the link between the sword and his body didn’t even prove to be enough to break the defense of his grandfather, Long Tianying, who was only using an ordinary Glorious Tier shield, and why was that? It was due to Spiritual Highland.

Of course, the current Long Haochen didn’t have as good control as his grandfather who was able to accomplish all that in a split second. But even so, after undergoing Spiritual Highland, his spiritual energy’s might tripled at minimum.

Thirty thousand spiritual energy, multiplied by three,his offensive power was enough to match the standard of ninety thousand spiritual energy.

Rippling Light’s characteristic was its double attack. This could seem simple, but how could a single blow turning instantly into two have the same power?

Because of the excessive power of Long Haochen’s previous attack, the effects from Rippling Light weren’t fully displayed, and the second blow only got roughly thirty thousand spiritual energy inside, but this was added up to the terrifying power of the first strike of ninety thousand spiritual energy. Adding this to the fact that both sides were rushing forward at a mad speed, the Fiend Commander dying instantly was not a surprising matter. In fact, this was under the premise that Long Haochen didn’t even use any of his sword intent.

A year and a half of bitter cultivation and the acquisition of the mighty Epic Tier Gold Essence Foundation Armor could be said to have turned over within the current Long Haochen a totally new leaf.

Everything went as in Long Haochen’s calculations. At the time the two pieces of the Fiend Commander’s dead body fell, he rushed towards the nine Fiends of the seventh step.

Seeing their captain die instantly, these nine were as shocked as one could imagine. How could they not be in total panic?

What greeted them was Long Haochen’s terrifying attacks.

In an instant, Long Haochen abruptly leapt down from Star King’s back. One could clearly see Star King’s body letting out a long golden chain made out of light, clinging to his waist. While enabling Long Haochen to come back at anytime, it also enabled the spiritual energy amplification to keep going.

In midair, Long Haochen actually didn’t unleash his spiritual wings, but was shot out like a bullet, rushing at lightning speed.

Three strikes of golden colored light were launched in succession, and pitiful cries burst forth along with surges of blood. Like that, six of the the nine Fiends of the seventh step died instantly.

This just happened too fast. With the backing from Star King, Long Haochen was able to maintain Spiritual Highland even without preparations. The power of this attack alone was enough against the ill-equipped Fiends of the seventh step, which ended up pretty much like a flock of sheep in front of a tiger.

The last three Fiends of the seventh step were in total terror, running away frantically. However, they were already too late.

Thick golden light kept twisting through the air, as Long Haochen’s attack borrowed power from his counterpart. Moving freely for a thousand meters, it chopped the head of the last Fiend of the seventh step very naturally. Gripping the golden chain on his waist, he returned to Star King’s back.

This battle was simply a unilateral massacre. From the beginning to the end of the battle, no more than one minute passed. It was a battle of wits and guts that went on.

Did he really have the advantage against a squad of Demon Hunter Removers formed of ten Fiends? In one-versus-one combat, they wouldn’t even be an opponent in his eyes, not even that Fiend Commander. But don’t forget about the Conjoined boosting skill of the Fiend clansmen. If these Fiends completed their Conjoined Boost, Long Haochen wouldn’t have been able to kill them so easily. But of course, the Conjoined Boost had its own drawbacks: it would be hard to believe that a group of ten people together would able to move rapidly and unhindered.

Deliberately drawing them out was quite effective against the opposite party’s Fiend Commander. Without wasting time, he used up thirty thousand spiritual energy to kill him in one strike, not only shocking the cohesion of the Fiends, but also getting rid of the most dangerous threat.

The following course of the battle was very simple. He used not only his strength, but also his experience and knowledge.

After getting rid of this team of Demon Hunter Removers, Long Haochen didn’t leave in a hurry, but rode on the back of Star King, picking up the corpses of these Fiends in the Eternal Melody before gazing coldly at the other direction in the sky and then proceeding for the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass on Star King’s back.

About five meters away, a Demon Envoy’s head ruptured in a split second, dropping from the sky.

Long Haochen had found out about this Demon Envoys mental probing long before. This was an ability similar to Eagle’s Eye. Only, he didn’t go deal personally with this Demon Envoy, only using his powerful mental power to leave him dead, the only shame being that it didn’t give any contribution points.

“A Fiend Commander of the eighth step for eight thousand contribution points, and two thousand contribution points for every Fiend of the seventh step. That’s already more than twenty thousand contribution points. Wait for me everyone. I will do my best to gather these points the fastest I can to join with you guys.”

Are you guys still well? Still safe and sound? Just wait for me, you must survive at least until then!

In the distance, the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass was already coming to view. Long Haochen was still far away, but could smell a reeking scent in the midst of the biting cold.

The demons are besieging the city?

In a hurry, Long Haochen brought Star King to the front of this battlefield, while transferring his internal spiritual energy at a fast speed, absorbing light essence to recover from the previous battle.

It was obviously the Gold Essence Foundation Armor that was being replenished this way, as Long Haochen basically didn’t make use of his own spiritual energy on the previous battle.

Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.

Among all six grand mountain passes, the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass was the most extraordinary one. In regards to the defensive aspect, it should be the best, because of being established entirely using the mountain as a basis, while the main buildings were inside the mountains. Given the environment, even the Demon God Emperor would hardly be able to pass through it in a short time.

However, the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass was also the hardest one to live in. The enemies weren’t the only ones affected by the extreme cold of the area! The officers and soldiers of the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass were also affected by the vile weather.

The life here was monotonous and dull: outside of battle, everything would be all black. One would only be able to live inside the mountain, but such hard conditions would only contribute to increasing the knights’ persevering nature and sturdy builds.
