Chapter 388: Cutting Edge!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
In the ancient times, Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts were figures that could block a thousand soldiers alone. They were also the overlords of large areas!
Following the arrival of the new era, all kinds of powerful weapons of mass destruction slowly appeared onto the scene. Under numerous special circumstances or at proper geographic locations, there were too many scenarios where modern weapons could be used to kill those legendary Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts.
But at the same time, Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts were also treated as movable nuclear weapons by the various countries. They wouldn't be activated without sufficient reason. The various countries would also not offend these experts for no reason.
It was fine if they were able to kill the Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert in one shot. But if they couldn't, the real fun would start. With the strength of Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts, although they couldn't sweep across thousands of soldiers and horses anymore like in the past, it was still an extremely terrifying thing to be eyed by a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert.
Every major country could not wait to be rid of these time bombs, hoping that they'd all disappear immediately. With them gone, they could develop without fear.
Other than half-demon races like the Vampires which had to be killed, some Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts in smaller countries were also unwilling to leave.
In those small countries, the position of a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert was extremely lofty. They were like a walking nuclear bomb whom everyone feared and respected.
At this time, Bei Feng had just finished his morning cultivation. His skin was glistening like jade, and a faint, clear fragrance rose out of his body.
"Bai Xiang, let's spar a bit."
Bei Feng cracked his knuckles and looked over at Bai Xiang with a sly smile.
"Boss, I only gave you a few light beatings in the past. Is there a need to bear a grudge until now?"
Although Bai Xiang was not the sharpest tool in the box, he was definitely not stupid. The moment he saw Bei Feng's strange gaze, his body immediately trembled in response.
Bei Feng smiled innocently and said, "Nonsense, am I such a person?"
"Yes!"
Bai Xiang gulped down a mouthful of saliva and the hairs on his back stood on its ends as he looked at Bei Feng's innocent smile. In that moment, he did not hesitate to reply.
"Come here, I promise to not beat you to death."
Bei Feng continued walking forward while smiling coarsely. It had to be because the strength he showed last night had frightened Bai Xiang. Otherwise, that fellow would not have reacted so quickly.
"I'll suppress my strength to the normal Xiantian late stage. How about it?" Bei Feng rolled his eyes and suggested that as he saw Bai Xiang backing off.
'En, I'm a very magnanimous person, so this is definitely not revenge for the beatings back then. I just want to let Bai Xiang know that there is always someone stronger, and help him to understand his current strength. At the same time, we'll take the chance to hone his martial skills. En, right, it's like this!' Bei Feng reasoned in his heart.
Bai Xiang's interest was roused as he asked excitedly, "Really? You can't go back on your word!"
"En, no going back on my word!" Bei Feng directly agreed without thinking. After that, he sprinted towards the back of the mountain.
Bai Xiang rubbed his hands and massaged his knuckles excitedly as he followed behind Bei Feng. Large steps were imprinted into the ground with his every step, as though a ferocious ancient beast was passing by.
A wide clearing abruptly came into view among the dense forest at the back of the mountain. The clearing looked extremely wretched, with fallen trees and splintered rocks everywhere. There were even huge palm prints and fist marks all over the ground.
Bai Xiang's body size was huge, and his running style was not much to look at. However, his speed was not slow, and he arrived right after Bei Feng.
Two huge auras soon surged upwards and clashed together.
Countless tiny bugs, mice, and small animals hurriedly scuttled out from under the fallen trees and holes in the ground, scattering in all directions in a panic. These creatures were much more sensitive to danger as compared to humans.
"Sou!"
Bai Xiang was extremely confident as he took the initiative to attack. Numerous golden swords materialized behind his back, causing him to look like a valiant divine general!
Bei Feng's eyes lit up with surprise. Who would have thought that Bai Xiang's Golden Geng Undying Body actually still had such a change. Initially, Bei Feng thought that Bai Xiang's Golden Geng Undying Body was only good for enduring a beating. But unexpectedly, its attack power was actually so high as well!
"Dang!"
Bei Feng did not retreat as well as he blasted out with a full power Eagle Form Style!
"Yin!"
A desolate eagle cry which seemed to have come from ancient times rang out, piercing and sharp like two metals rubbing together!
The name Heaven Shredding Eagle represented an extremely sharp cutting edge. The eagle was like its name, daring to call itself Heaven Shredder!
A large claw appeared out of nowhere, black as immortal gold. A thick layer of keratin protected its exterior, and the air flow on the sharp claws alone was enough to rip apart solid steel!
"Earth Sword!"
Bai Xiang was unmoved as the swords on his back merged together, radiating a terrifying sharpness!
"Si-la!"
The air itself seemed to have been sliced apart as an ear-numbing shredding sound rang out!
The Earth Sword appeared infront of the eagle claw manifestation with unbelievable speed!
"Dang!"
Both attacks represented sharpness, and when both collided together, a stalemate ensued!
"Eh?"
"Giant Bear Smash!"
"Clang!"
Both attacks were stopped for a while, but in the end, the one that broke was actually Bei Feng's eagle claw, causing him a great amount of shock! The Eagle Form Style was something that he'd already grasped quite closely. But in the end, it was still split apart by Bai Xiang!
In that moment, he did not hesitate to use the Bear Form Style. A furry paw as white as snow and over 10 meters wide stretched out from Bei Feng's back. A gentle breeze blew across the area, and the white fur on the paw could actually be seen swaying lightly in the wind!
From this point alone, one could see how realistic this manifestation that'd been formed by the Bear Form Style was!
A loud roar rang out in the forest, sending countless beasts fleeing in the opposite direction. Even the birds in the sky nearly plummeted to the ground from fear!
"Weng, weng!"
Bai Xiang was the closest person to this roar, and he naturally could not avoid being affected by it. The roar sounded out like a clap of thunder in his head, causing his ears to buzz.
"Earth Style Killing Technique, Mountains Breaking And Earth Splintering!"
Bai Xiang did not dare to be careless as he felt the powerful strength in the silverish white paw. That strike was enough to cause him to feel a great amount of danger. In that moment, he erupted with his full strength!
The Bear Form Style was the martial technique that Bei Feng trained the longest. The Giant Bear Manifestation created from it had also been refined into the first layer Heavenly Laws Embodiment Technique's Dharma Idol!
The combination of both was definitely not as simple as one plus one. One could say that this strike of Bei Feng could already be considered as entering the Dao with martial arts!
Bai Xiang was naturally unwilling to lose out. The golden sword behind him shattered into pieces and reformed into a huge landmass which surged forward to meet the Giant Bear paw!
Giant Bears represented strength! And it was pure strength, unadulterated by other forces. This was the extremes of strength!
When pure strength reached a certain level, it had the power to smash apart every spells and illusions, ruling everything with strength alone!
Of course, Bei Feng was still far from qualified to step into such a realm. But when he used the Giant Bear Manifestation, he could be considered as an overlord among the same rank of cultivation!
But Bai Xiang was not weak, either. He'd reached the level of late stage Xiantian through the path of dual cultivation. Just the might of his cultivation alone allowed him to be at least two times stronger than other late stage Xiantian Lords!
On top of that, he had a dominating martial skill like the Golden Geng Undying Body. He also could not be underestimated!
The huge golden landmass collided with the Giant Bear Paw and instantly swallowed it whole. At the same time, the Heaven and Earth Ling Qi as well as blood and Qi energy inside the landmass exploded forth!
Countless sharp spikes rouse out of the landmass like a porcupine's spikes.
The two different types of energy exploded together, triggering a terrifying destructive might!
"Boom!"
Numerous explosions rang out as small mushroom clouds rose into the sky.
A violent shock wave shot outwards, directly snapping some small trees apart!
Bei Feng and Bai Xiang also retreated multiple steps as ten-meter-long gashes appeared on the ground!
The two attacks were extinguished by each other, and a large pit about 20, 30 meters wide and 7, 8 meters deeps appeared on the ground. Water also began to appear on the ground as an underwater spring burst to life.
This clash had ended in a draw. However, a strange smile still hung on Bei Feng's face.
Seeing this, Bai Xiang's heart dropped. Without any hesitation, he turned around and fled!
