Chapter 1214: Blaze
The enormous Celestial Crane flapped its wings, which had transformed from mountain peaks, creating a tempest with its apocalyptic might and a horror power.
The Celestial Crane flew towards the distant massive Golden Eagle where Lin Fei was located.
A crane and an eagle, both with gargantuan sizes, even a direct clash between them would unleash earth-shattering force, with unimaginable consequences.
Thus, more than ten thousand cultivators watching from afar unconsciously retreated a kilometer back, though several patriarchs and elite guards of the Yue family did not retreat.
Yue Yunquan and his brothers, witnessing Lin Fei transform two mountains into a gigantic Golden Eagle, realized that, in size and aura of power, it surpassed the Celestial Crane crafted by their elder brother Yue Yunsheng.
This caused concern for Yue Yunsheng and left them unwilling to retreat, leaving Yue Yunsheng to face life and death peril alone.
They had resolved to advance and retreat together with Yue Yunsheng.
As Yue Yunsheng unleashed his cultivation technique for a massive assault, Lin Fei did not hesitate, swinging the Anger Dragon Sword in the air and summoning his power, as the gigantic Golden Eagle beneath him flapped its massive wings, flying towards Yue Yunsheng's Celestial Crane.
A crane and an eagle, with colossal sizes, even as they flew, the earth shook, winds and clouds roiled, and gales erupted.
The destructive power spread through a ten-mile radius, causing all watching cultivators to tense and focus their eyes on the airborne clash between the Celestial Crane and the Golden Eagle.
Amidst the fierce airflow, Yue Yunsheng's white hair and robes fluttered on the back of the Celestial Crane, his eyes blazing intensely, determined to win; the Celestial Crane's world-ending strike must destroy the Golden Eagle!
In contrast to Yue Yunsheng's desperate survival instinct, Lin Fei remained calm and composed, entirely unfazed by the Celestial Crane's intimidating might.
He continued to drive the massive Golden Eagle below him, relentlessly attacking towards the Celestial Crane.
The skies churned with storm clouds, the tempest surged, and an astounding oppressive power enveloped the surroundings.
Crash.
The heavens were shaken by a thunderous boom as the Celestial Crane and Golden Eagle collided fiercely.
The white light of the Celestial Crane and the golden light of the Golden Eagle immediately blended.
As storm clouds rolled, the forms of the White Crane and the Golden Eagle were no longer visible, only two massive orbs of light flying swiftly and darting through the storm clouds.
Thunderous sounds echoed as the two massive orbs of light clashed and parted continuously, like thunder exploding relentlessly in the sky.
After several rounds, the Celestial Crane and Golden Eagle separated and withdrew a hundred meters each.
All cultivators promptly looked at the Celestial Crane and Golden Eagle, noticing that in the swirling storm clouds, the white Celestial Crane appeared to have undergone some changes after intense combat; the enveloping white light now thin on the body.
One could faintly see the rocks, soil of the mountain, and green trees on the Celestial Crane's enormous body, previously shrouded by the white light.
It seemed Yue Yunsheng had expended too much power.
On the back of the Celestial Crane, Yue Yunsheng's white hair was disheveled, his face showing paleness, and his attire visibly torn as if shredded by a blade, clearly torn by the terrifying power during the clash of the crane and eagle.
After several rounds of fierce combat, Yue Yunsheng visibly exhibited signs of excessive power depletion and weakness.
Yet as all cultivators glanced at Lin Fei's massive Golden Eagle, they discovered the Golden Eagle not only did not weaken in light and aura like the Celestial Crane, but instead its golden light was more radiant and dazzling, emitting an aura of power that was even more magnificent and astonishing.
Looking again at Lin Fei, standing proud with his sword on the gigantic back of the Golden Eagle, his hair perfectly in place, attire neat, and expression calm and composed, with not a hint of panic, indicating the crane and eagle clash had not harmed him at all.
This left Yue Yunsheng greatly astonished, unable to believe he had exhausted over half his power, his hair disheveled, attire torn, while Lin Fei seemed untouched.
This greatly surprised him.
Similarly, all watching cultivators, including everyone from the Yue family, were extremely surprised.
What kind of power does this Lin Fei possess?
What kind of divine skill is this that formed a mountain into a massive Golden Eagle?
Even Yue Yunsheng's Celestial Crane Divine Skill could not defeat it, a result unexpected by all.
"Patriarch Yue Yunsheng of the Yue family, listen, if you now lead the Yue family to surrender to me, recognizing me as your lord, I shall spare you from death and even refrain from destroying your Yue family," Lin Fei declared loudly while staunchly standing on the Golden Eagle, his eyes bright, looking at the disheveled and pale-faced Yue Yunsheng.
Lin Fei's words stirred a fervent discussion among the watching cultivators: "What, Lin Fei wants the patriarch of the Yue family and all its members to surrender, recognizing him as lord?"
"The Yue family is one of the ten great families of Ten Thousand Swords City; how could they possibly surrender to him?"
"Even if his power is formidable, demanding the Yue family to surrender and recognize him as lord is somewhat arrogant."
Yue Yunquan and others showed their uncontrollable fury, shouting at Yue Yunsheng: "Big brother, we would rather die than surrender to this brat!"
Yue Yunsheng's face showed a hint of pride as he looked at his brothers, saying, "Do not worry, I will not surrender to him even if I die, the Yue family will not bow to an unknown person."
Then, his gaze shifted to Lin Fei, lips curving into a sinister smile, saying, "Kid, our battle is far from over! We do not know yet who will win!"
Yue Yunsheng could certainly see Lin Fei's power, and the large Golden Eagle formed by the mountain far surpassed him and his Celestial Crane in strength.
However, Yue Yunsheng was determined to use the Celestial Crane and his life to perish with Lin Fei, even if it could not immediately kill Lin Fei, it should heavily wound him, to protect the Yue family.
In short, Yue Yunsheng had already disregarded his life for the Yue family's survival.
"Alright then, we shall continue fighting, but should I accidentally claim your life next time, do not blame me for my merciless hand." Lin Fei's lips curled into a subtle smile.
He could certainly tell Yue Yunsheng planned a deadly struggle, yet after those rounds of combat, Lin Fei felt confident in handling Yue Yunsheng's attacks.
"Attack!" Yue Yunsheng shouted coldly, activating his cultivation technique, prompting the enormous Celestial Crane to flap its wings once more, unleashing an earth-shattering storm, and attacked with apocalyptic power towards Lin Fei's Golden Eagle.
Lin Fei watched the attacking Celestial Crane, unmoved as though awaiting something.
When the Celestial Crane flew within ten meters of the Golden Eagle, Lin Fei's eyes fleshed cunningly, then swung the Anger Dragon Sword towards the approaching Celestial Crane, shouting fiercely, "Fire!"
As soon as Lin Fei's shout fell, the Golden Eagle's several-meter-long hooked beak suddenly opened, a formation of mountain rocks and earth, it opened as the beak drew apart.
Crash.
In a thunderous sound, a long fire dragon spewed from the open beak, immediately enveloping the flying massive Celestial Crane.
The blazing flames instantly turned the Celestial Crane into a fire crane.
As the Golden Eagle spewed flames, transforming the Celestial Crane into a fire crane, even Yue Yunsheng was consumed by the blaze and flustered, Lin Fei pointed forward with his long sword, shouting, "Kill!~~~"
The massive Golden Eagle shook its wings, with the storm and heavenly might at its back, attacking swiftly as lightning toward the burning Celestial Crane.
