Chapter 1205 - 1203: Join Forces
At this moment, no one believed Xia Lalan could withstand the attack. It might have been possible for her to stand on equal footing with one attacker, but now she was facing ten attackers simultaneously. Even a master at the Infinitesimal Realm would struggle to defend against such an onslaught. Some even involuntarily closed their eyes, convinced that Xia Lalan would surely perish in this wave of attacks!
Xia Yuntian and the entire Xia Family’s expressions changed dramatically, starting to worry for Xia Lalan. They couldn’t believe that all ten opponents had attacked Xia Lalan together, thinking it to be utterly shameless. Did they really have to push Xia Lalan to her death?
However, under the current circumstances, even if they wanted to intervene, it was already too late. They regretted deeply, wishing they had never allowed Xia Lalan to challenge the opponent if they had known this would happen. But now it was too late for regrets; all they could do now was pray that Xia Lalan could survive this attack, and then they planned to rush up and rescue her...
Such an attack, really nothing special!
Yet, Lin Feng appeared completely relaxed at this moment. He knew Xia Lalan’s strength better than anyone; such an attack was utterly useless against her. He was not worried about Xia Lalan’s safety at all, and even wore a faint smile on his face.
In the blink of an eye, the attack launched by Gu Shengwu and others hit Xia Lalan, who was in the middle of the altar!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
...
A series of earth-shattering explosions reverberated, echoing continuously for several kilometers. The entire altar seemed to undergo a massive earthquake, Gang Qi mixing and bursting incessantly, suddenly forming a multicolored storm, sweeping around like a hurricane, even dyeing the sky with various colors. Even those like Gu Shengwu who had initiated the attack hastily dodged, showing the terrifying extent of the Gang Qi storm!
The only thing that remained unchanged was the ground of the altar; despite the powerful attacks, it was unscathed, smooth as new. Under ordinary circumstances, such an attack would have obliterated the entire area, making them realize just how miraculous this altar was!
Everyone present, witnessing such a terrifying scene, subconsciously concluded that Xia Lalan had no chance of surviving such an attack. Even if Xia Lalan had some life-saving Secret Technique, merely hanging onto a breath would already be quite an accomplishment.
"Unaware of life and death, daring to challenge us! Really thought she was formidable, now you know our strength!"
"Alas, the Xia Family always thinks they are invincible!"
"This Xia Lalan must have a broken brain, otherwise why would she do such a foolish thing!"
...
Gu Shengwu and other skilled fighters also mocked from the sidelines, ridiculing Xia Lalan for seeking her own death. In their view, their concentrated attack by ten experts, sufficient to trouble a master of the Infinitesimal Realm, let alone Xia Lalan, made it impossible for her to survive. They blamed her for her own demise!
At this time, the Xia Family members showed sorrow, pitying Xia Lalan, and the children’s expressions were particularly ugly. They believed in Xia Lalan, but the opponent’s attack was just too formidable; they couldn’t be sure if Xia Lalan could hold on...
However, Lin Feng alone maintained a smile on his face; the idea that such an attack could hit Xia Lalan was absurd. With Xia Lalan’s strength, there were many ways to dodge such an attack, and he no longer needed to worry about her safety.
In a blink, the terrifying Gang Qi storm subsided!
Suddenly, everyone turned their gaze towards Xia Lalan’s previous location, and when they saw that not only was Xia Lalan not there, but not even a trace of blood was left, everyone believed she was dead, and gruesomely so!
Seeing this, Gu Shengwu wore a disdainful smile and sarcastically announced, "Well, Xia Lalan is dead. We can proceed with the ranking match as normal!"
But just as Gu Shengwu’s words fell and others were about to speak, suddenly a divine voice resonated from the sky.
"Laughable, who said I was dead? With such a slow speed, trying to kill me is utterly delusional!"
Xia Lalan coldly said to them from mid-air, although their attacks were strong, frankly, they were too slow. Under Lin Feng’s guidance, with her speed, dodging their attacks was just too easy. For such an attack to kill her was nothing short of a pipe dream!
Watching Xia Lalan descend from the sky, hearing her voice, everyone was stunned for a moment...
How is that possible!
How did she dodge it?
Everyone didn’t feel Xia Lalan flying into the sky!
...
Everyone stared at Xia Lalan, completely astonished. They had never imagined that Xia Lalan could dodge such dense attacks. Now, the fact that she landed unharmed from mid-air only meant one thing – all those attacks had missed. Even more terrifying was that no one noticed how Xia Lalan had flown up, not even the family heads and elders of the four Prominent Families!
For a moment, all eyes were glued on Xia Lalan, genuinely puzzled about how she had dodged them. Even if Xia Lalan was formidable and fast, it was inconceivable that she could evade them without any hint or anyone noticing. It was simply unbelievable how fast Xia Lalan was!
Similarly, Gu Shengwu and the others watching Xia Lalan’s descent turned into statues, completely stunned, each wearing an expression of disbelief. They thought, "Is Xia Lalan even human? She could dodge such attacks, which involved more than a dozen Gang Qi assaults. Even a master of the Infinitesimal Realm wouldn’t be able to dodge them! When did Xia Lalan become so powerful? How is this even possible!"
But Xia Lalan stood right before them, making disbelief impossible. Almost at the same time, a sinking feeling arose in their hearts – if Xia Lalan was able to dodge such attacks, could they dodge if Xia Lalan attacked them....
Xia Lalan, seeing the stupefied expressions on Gu Shengwu and others, shook her head slightly, smiled faintly, and then said to everyone, "You’ve already made your moves, now it’s my turn."
After these words, before anyone could react, Xia Lalan suddenly turned into a streak of white light and disappeared from the spot!
Not good!
Defend!
Disaster!
...
Upon hearing Xia Lalan’s words, Gu Shengwu and the others immediately burst forth their Gang Qi for the strongest defense. They had already seen Xia Lalan’s explosive power; her strength was definitely beyond that of the Half-Step to Minute Subtlety Realm. Now, Xia Lalan’s speed was so swift that she turned into white light and vanished in an instant, clearly aiming to attack them!
But just when they had braced themselves, Xia Lalan unpredictably appeared beside one of them, launching a punch at this person’s back. The fist was enveloped in an extremely dense White Gang Qi. Due to the high speed, there wasn’t even a sound of breaking air. By the time this person realized, it was too late! With no choice left, they could only do their best to protect their back and vital spots, enduring Xia Lalan’s punch!
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a loud noise erupted, and the person hit by Xia Lalan was sent flying like a cannonball for several hundred meters, scraping a bloody trail over ten meters long before stopping and vomiting blood before passing out.
How is this possible!
Just an ordinary punch, how could it have such force!
This...how could this be possible! This speed...
...
For a moment, everyone was dumbstruck, truly not expecting Xia Lalan to strike in such a manner. Without using any specific technique, relying only on strength and speed, she had severely inflicted a late-stage expert of the Transcendent Realm. Xia Lalan’s strength and speed were simply too horrifying. Was this still a woman under twenty? It was absolutely unbelievable!
Gu Shengwu and the remaining eight individuals felt a chill in their hearts upon witnessing this. None of them had expected Xia Lalan to be this formidable. Her speed and power were much beyond theirs. Exaggeration aside, Xia Lalan could possibly subdue them without even needing to use any techniques!
But at this moment, none of them were willing to admit defeat to Xia Lalan. As if hearing the hearts of the crowd, Gu Shengwu suddenly bellowed, "Gather together, let’s deal with her together!"
Admittedly, Gu Shengwu’s reaction was quick. Since they couldn’t contend with Xia Lalan individually, they decided to gather together, combining the full strength of the remaining nine people to take on Xia Lalan. Even if Xia Lalan was formidable, she couldn’t possibly face all nine of them simultaneously!
Upon hearing Gu Shengwu’s words, Kong He and the other eight immediately converged without hesitation, also understanding that this was the best way to counter Xia Lalan’s assault under these circumstances.
Seeing their reaction, Lin Feng burst into laughter. He just couldn’t help it. If these people had dispersed, they might have lasted a while, but gathering together was exactly what Xia Lalan needed to take them all down in one go. He knew well that the Nine Phoenixes Chanting Heaven Technique contained a move specifically for dealing with a group, so if these people were seeking their own doom, they had no one else to blame.
Just like Lin Feng, Xia Lalan also laughed upon seeing that they had all gathered together. She hadn’t expected them to cooperate so well. With that in mind, Xia Lalan suddenly leaped from the ground like a bird shooting into the sky, gathering Gang Qi at an altitude of over a hundred meters!
In an instant, Gang Qi began to condense around Xia Lalan, forming a white Phoenix beside her. What’s more astonishing was that golden sparks glinted atop the white Phoenix, making it almost unbearable to look directly at it. It also radiated a perilously dangerous aura, causing onlookers to feel a chill in their hearts, barely able to breathe!
