Chapter 223 - 125: Seven Steps of the Dragon Display Divine Might, Yili Lends a Hand to Protect the People
Where Feng Xiaotian stood, the ground wasn’t spared, forming a massive pit, his feet sunk into it, his body swaying unsteadily, an expression of terror appeared on his face. The sixth step, Shi Feiyang moved like lightning, landing swiftly, then charged forward, slightly sinking his right shoulder as if a giant dragon raising its head, using his shoulder as a blade to ram into Feng Xiaotian.
This collision carried immense impact, the air compressed to emit a piercing howl, as if about to be torn apart.
Feng Xiaotian only felt a formidable force surge towards him like a rolling torrent, he wanted to evade but it was too late, hit hard by this force, his body flew back like a kite with its string cut, traveling several meters, crashing heavily to the ground, blood spurting wildly from his mouth.
The seventh step, Shi Feiyang steadied his stance, his palms moving rapidly, displaying the "Dragon Battle All Directions" from the Divine Dragon Claw Divine Technique. His palms transformed into streaks of afterimages, the claw wind whistling, like materialized blades, furiously sweeping towards where Feng Xiaotian was.
Wherever the claw wind passed, deep gouges were carved into the ground, surrounding trees were cleaved in half, their severed trunks smooth as mirrors.
Feng Xiaotian lay on the ground, helplessly watching the terrifying claw wind swoop towards him, his eyes filled with despair, unable to resist.
The claw wind engulfed him instantly, emitting a heartrending scream, then Feng Xiaotian shattered into countless fragments, dying without leaving a whole corpse, his blood had already been drained by Shi Feiyang’s fierce Divine Dragon Claw Divine Technique.
At this moment, Yili and Li ManCang’s battle grew even more intense.
Li ManCang saw Yili’s vigorous swordsmanship, hard to contend with directly, secretly gritted his teeth, then executed the Beggar Gang’s secret "Dog-Beating Stick Technique." His iron stick instantly danced, creating layer upon layer of stick shadows, impenetrable like a fierce wild dog, baring its fangs and claws at Yili.
This "Dog-Beating Stick Technique" was ever-changing, each move contained hidden mystery, leaving one defenseless.
However, Li ManCang’s power wasn’t thick enough, so while the technique was clever, without the support of substantial inner strength, it was merely decorative embroidery.
Yili sneered coldly, utterly fearless, her eyes glittered with determination and confidence, then she displayed Hengshan Sect’s top lightweight technique "Misty Cloud Step," her form like a fairy among the clouds, ethereal and elusive, nimbly weaving through the stick shadows.
Li ManCang’s iron stick always missed her narrowly, yet could never injure her in the slightest.
Yili seized an opportunity, her sword moves changed abruptly, showcasing "Cloud Mist Thirteen Swords’" "Cloud Conceals Mist Surrounds."
This sword style, like the clouds and mist lingering in the mountains, was elusive and immeasurable, hard to grasp. Her sword flashed countless afterimages before Li ManCang’s eyes, each afterimage seemed like a real blade, stabbing towards Li ManCang’s vital points.
Li ManCang only saw a blur of sword lights before him, shocked at heart, hastily spinning his iron stick tighter, attempting to block this fierce sword move.
However, Yili’s swordsmanship was too exquisite, seeing a tiny flaw in Li ManCang’s defense, her sword resembled a spiritual snake, slipped through the stick shadows, and with a "puff," the sword tip pierced Li ManCang’s right arm precisely.
Li ManCang let out a miserable cry, almost dropping the iron stick from his hand.
He was both shocked and enraged, despite the injury to his right arm, he put all his strength into sweeping the iron stick sideways, trying to force Yili to retreat.
Yili leaped lightly backward, dodging the strike. Looking at the injured Li ManCang, a cold smile curved on her lips, "With such poor skills, you dare oppose me? Hmph! Today is your date with death!" After saying this, she advanced swiftly again, her sword moves attacking Li ManCang like a wild storm.
After dealing with Feng Xiaotian, Shi Feiyang faced the onslaught from other enemies. Tie Wudi, the Iron Hook Sect Leader, swung iron hooks from the left, the hooks glimmering with a cold light like ferocious beast claws, grabbing toward Shi Feiyang’s ribs.
Murong Yan, the Blood Sword Hall Leader, drifted from the right side, her blood sword like a venomous snake flicking its tongue, stabbing towards Shi Feiyang’s throat.
Niu Dali, the Wolf Fang Stick Sect Leader, swung a gigantic wolf fang club from the front, the club bearing tremendous force as if to smash Shi Feiyang into a meat pie. Shi Feiyang swayed like a ghost, dodging Tie Wudi and Murong Yan’s attacks, simultaneously utilizing a "Dragon Scale Shield," crossing his arms, emitting a faint golden glow like dragon scales, firm and unyielding.
Niu Dali’s wolf fang club smashed heavily against Shi Feiyang’s arms, producing a loud boom, sparks flying.
Niu Dali only felt like his wolf fang club hit a massive boulder, his arms numb, the web of his hand splitting.
Shi Feiyang seized this chance and kicked towards Niu Dali.
Bam! Niu Dali was kicked back dozens of meters, crashed heavily to the ground, forming a deep pit, covered by countless dust motes settling down, the splattered blood staining this small, rudimentary dirt tomb.
Facing the fierce attacks from Tie Wudi and Murong Yan, Shi Feiyang snorted coldly, "You wicked ones, don’t even think of escaping today!"
Tie Wudi and Murong Yan exchanged a glance, with a hint of fear flickering in their eyes.
But they knew that retreating meant certain death, whereas attacking might offer a slim chance of survival.
Thus, they gritted their teeth and once again joined forces to attack Shi Feiyang.
Tie Wudi wielded his iron hook, executing the "Iron Hook Linked Claws," as lightning-quick strikes aimed at Shi Feiyang, the claw winds fierce, slicing the air with a "sizzling" sound. Meanwhile, Murong Yan displayed her "Phantom Stab," the blood sword in her hand creating numerous phantasmal sword shadows, stabbing towards Shi Feiyang from various angles. Shi Feiyang employed a move called "Dragon Shadow Cross," swiftly maneuvering through the iron hooks and phantom blood swords with ease.
His figure resembled an agile giant dragon, elusive and difficult to grasp.
Seizing the moment, he thrust both palms forward, unleashing the "Dragon Flame Palm."
Fiery flames erupted from his palms, carrying immense heat as they surged towards Tie Wudi and Murong Yan.
Tie Wudi and Murong Yan felt a wave of heat rushing at them and quickly retreated.
However, the flames moved swiftly, enveloping them in an instant.
The two let out shrill screams, struggling in the flames before being reduced to charred remains.
At this moment, Zhuge Zhi, the Sect Leader of the Smoke Illusion Formation Sect, waved his folding fan, making the surrounding smoke even denser and the illusions more numerous, making it feel as if one was in a surreal world. Shi Feiyang, amid the formation, remained unshaken.
He closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and relied on his sharp senses to detect the changing atmospheres around him.
He realized that although the smoke formation was bizarre, it was not impregnable.
The illusions within the array seemed real but were actually controlled by Zhuge Zhi’s inner strength; once he found the source of this strength, he could break the formation.
Shi Feiyang used a move from the Divine Dragon Claw Divine Technique—"Dragon Sensing," releasing his inner strength like an invisible net to probe for the source of energy within the formation.
Suddenly, Shi Feiyang’s figure flashed, rushing towards the source of the aura.
His Bright Jade Technique at the Eighth Realm—"Supreme Forgetfulness," emitted an intense coldness akin to thousand-year-old profound ice, and it disrupted Zhuge Zhi’s eerie smoke formation in an instant.
Zhuge Zhi was astounded to see Shi Feiyang locate him within the array. He quickly waved his folding fan, trying to alter the formation’s illusions and smoke to prevent Shi Feiyang’s approach. However, Shi Feiyang’s speed was too fast, rendering Zhuge Zhi’s attempts futile.
Shi Feiyang appeared before Zhuge Zhi in an instant, striking with both palms, executing a move called "Dragon Breaks Through Ranks." The strike carried formidable force, sending Zhuge Zhi flying. He was flung into the air, disintegrating upon impact, leaving no remains, and the smoke formation dissipated with him.
Hou Yi of the Divine Arrow Sect, witnessing Shi Feiyang’s fierce prowess, was filled with apprehension.
He drew his bow and released several arrows in quick succession, whistling through the air towards Shi Feiyang.
Shi Feiyang executed a move named "Dragon Soars to the Sky," leaping high and spinning rapidly in the air like a soaring dragon.
His palms moved swiftly, deflecting the incoming arrows one by one, causing them to break mid-air and scatter all over the ground.
After landing, Shi Feiyang gazed coldly at Hou Yi, "It’s your turn to die!" With that, he darted towards Hou Yi. Hou Yi, sensing trouble, turned to flee. But Shi Feiyang’s speed was overwhelming, catching up in mere moments.
Shi Feiyang grabbed Hou Yi’s shoulder and twisted it forcefully. With a loud "crack," Hou Yi’s shoulder dislocated.
Hou Yi screamed in pain, dropping his divine bow to the ground.
Shi Feiyang kicked him to the ground, saying coldly, "For your selfish gains, you aided the wicked. Such a person is a scourge!"
With that, Shi Feiyang stomped down, and with a "crunch," Hou Yi’s head shattered into pieces, leaving his body in ruins.
