Chapter 1379 - Return!
1379 Return!
“Using your ice element concept alone won’t be enough against me. I heard a lot of fanfare about your space concept. I really want to witness the so-called invincible space concept. I want to see just how invincible it is under the assault of my plants.” Just as Lord Kun finished speaking, his gentle aura turned malicious. Then, he lifted a finger to point at Ling Lan’s direction.
Ling Lan immediately felt something was not right. Without wondering why, she just jumped off the ground.
A crimson bug suddenly emerged from the floor where she was standing at. As the crimson bug crawled out from the ground, it shook its body a little to reveal the razor thin wings. Seeing Ling Lan flying above it, it let out an ear-piercing screech, revealing its mouth which had rows of teeth much like a meat grinder. It then flew towards Ling Lan at lightning speed with its intimidating teeth.
“Hmph!” Seeing the crimson bug coming towards her, Ling Lan just snorted in response. She flicked her sleeve and multiple green tentacles shot out of her sleeve. Slit-like holes could be seen all over the tentacles, where it housed rows of thin and sharp teeth. There was also still saliva hanging off the teeth. Seeing the revolting bug coming towards them, they weren’t frightened by it but instead, they got excited, as if they met their lunch. More saliva started to form in its mouth, but most of it dripped on the ground which corroded a huge area.
“Screech!”
“Rawr!”
When the two monsters faced off against each other, they started taking mouthfuls of each other’s body.
“Screech…”
“Rawr…”
The two monsters continued to bite each other ruthlessly. Everything depended on which one was stronger. Only the strong were able to devour their opponent. At this moment, one could even hear the sound of chewing, which sounded exceptionally eerie in the empty main hall.
After Ling Lan released Little White’s clone, she disregarded the crimson bug. She landed on the ground lightly and placed her red cloak over her shoulder. They were like her red wings as they glided down slowly along with her. Along with her arrogant and domineering aura, she looked like an emperor looking down on her subjects.
Lord Kun suddenly had this gut-wrenching feeling from the depths of his body. He felt shame, ashamed that he had intruded on the territory of a king, and fear, fearful of what was about to come.
However, the feeling only lasted for a fleeting moment. But, before he could analyse these emotions, Ling Lan flicked her fingers with her outstretched hands.
In an instant, an overwhelming amount of ice needles were formed densely in the air. And with a snap of a finger, they flew towards Lord Kun like the rain in a storm.
“Simple tricks!” Lord Kun scoffed. He placed his palms together and his body immediately sunk into the ground like a plant.
Phew! Phew! Phew! The ice needles pierced the marble flooring like a pin cushion.
Suddenly, Ling Lan’s entire body suddenly shattered into ice shards.
Vines with glowing red flowers could be seen shattering through all the ice.
After the vines missed their target, they fell heavily onto the ground heavily, cracking the marble floor into tiny pieces.
“What a pity.” Behind the spot where Ling Lan was standing, a plant had grown out from the ground. In an instant, it turned into Lord Kun.
“Two failed sneak attacks. His instinct is really amazing…” Lord Kun carefully scanned around him. He wanted to find where Ling Lan was hiding.
He carefully took a step forward. Suddenly, his expression froze as he could feel something brushing his legs.
Lord Kun remained motionless. His eyes slowly got tainted with green. With the help of the Eye of Plant, he finally saw what he felt.
It was a thin and almost invisible thread laid horizontally in front of him. This was the threat that his leg touched.
Lord Kun raised his head to carefully look at the area near him. Under a certain lighting angle, he could see threads covering the main hall from the right to the left, forming a huge web. Unexpectedly, he had become the prey of the web.
A figure slowly appeared in the air to show Ling Lan crossing her arms in front of her chest. There was a transparent threat linked to each of her fingers. Without a doubt, the creator of this huge web was Ling Lan.
“I didn’t expect you to have such a technique,” Lord Kun said with a stern face.
Every imperial realm formidable warrior had their own signature imperial technique. They would rarely be used until the final moment. Just based on this huge and frightening presence, as well as the powerful threat he felt from the web, Lord Kun had reasons to believe that this was Lan Xiao’s imperial technique.
“If I didn’t have this ace up my sleeve, how would I have been chosen to come here?” Ling Lan replied with a calm expression before tightly clenching her fist.
The threads in the main hall started to enclose on Lord Kun from all directions.
“Break!” Lord Kun waved his hands and numerous vines burst out from the floor below him. Then, they attacked the threads crazily.
The two parties started fighting bloodily. Either the red flower vines got minced by the threads or the threads were torn apart by the vines. The battle would only end when one party depleted all of their domain concepts energy.
Ling Lan watched as her threads got lesser and lesser slowly. As for Lord Kun’s vines, there seemed to be an infinite number of them. New ones kept appearing to replace the ones that died.
This was an expected result as Lord Kun was more powerful than her. No wonder he was one of the figureheads of the 13 Lords. His strength was indeed a tier above the other members of the 13 Lords.
One Lord Kun was already powerful. Then, how powerful was Lord Qian who was rumoured to be in the god-realm?
The more she understood about the imperial realm, and the closer she got to god-realm, Ling Lan got a deeper understanding of how scary god-realm was. When she was young and naive in the past, she just knew that her master was powerful. She would at most think that her master was only a little more powerful than her father.
This naive perception remained until she became a titled domain formidable warrior. But, after she smuggled herself into Planet General to meet her mother with the help of her master, was when she finally understood how frightening god-realm was.
At that time, even though her master was standing in front of her, she was completely oblivious to her presence.
When he revealed himself, the sense of danger she felt then was terrifying. Her Profound Insight told her clearly that if her master was her enemy, she must run away immediately as far as she could.
When an imperial realm formidable warrior met a god-realm formidable warrior, the only thing she could do was run. This showed how frightening god-realm was. The god-realm was definitely unbelievable in the range of human capabilities. Honestly, Ling Lan thought becoming an imperial realm formidable warrior was already an unbelievable feat, but at least an imperial realm formidable warrior could still die.
The threads were disappearing at a noticeable rate. In the end, there were only a few hundred threads left. Seeing this, Lord Kun smiled lightly. Although his smile looked normal, the feeling it gave was exceptionally cold.
“Since you have been so kind to show me your beautiful show, let me return the favour.” Lord Kun waved his hand and vines erupted from the floor around Ling Lan. The red buds on the vines bloomed instantly. In that instant, a gentle breeze blew past the main hall. The petals of the flower seemingly couldn’t withstand the wind as they detach themselves to be carried on by the wind. The main hall suddenly dove into a world of red petals. It was eerily beautiful.
