Chapter 953: The World of Shadows
Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins
Dozens of battleships hovered around the space spider web. Thousands of warriors were waiting in silence, observing the fierce battle.
Until this moment, only Niger's and Da Feng's forces had participated in this battle. Many other forces from different clans were still watching indifferently. On one hand, they seemed to be afraid of Blood Devil. On the other hand, they also just didn't want to lose their troops.
At least before the situation was clear, they didn't want to get involved in the mess.
The space spider web was still moving. Warriors continued to go into the blood sea. The four Third Sky of Ethereal God Realm warriors were still attacking each other. Their Ethereal Extents were still colliding and bombarding each other. They pushed the real world to the edge of being demolished.
Shi Yan hid in the blood sea. He hadn't shown himself until now. However, those who dared to enter the blood sea had their soul alters collapse. They lost their minds and started to attack everyone else.
A brilliant star had flown up, radiating dozens of starlight beams above the Blood Soul Sea. Its light had made the brave warriors who dared to get into the blood sea turn to look at an asteroid, which melted from the scorching flame in the next moment.
Wu Lan's visage changed. Her beautiful eyes became severe for the first time.
Tu Fei had stormed over and released his tornados, hovering in front of the Blood Soul Sea. Accompanying him were three other Ethereal God Realm warriors, one at Second Sky and two at First Sky. These were the hotshots under Niger's and Da Feng's commands.
"It's time to end this farce." At this moment, Tu Fei was quite lucid. He wasn't quite his usual loony self. "No matter how strong Blood Devil is, this place is the Far West region. You can't decide on our business!"
Wu Lan frowned.
"If you stop now, we won't hold any grudge even though you killed our Blood Halberd warriors." Tu Fei seemed to have confirmed something with Da Feng, speaking coldly, "If you poke your nose in our Far West region's business, then... don't blame us for giving no face for Blood Devil!"
The three Ethereal God Realm experts scattered, quietly surrounding Wu Lan.
Wu Lan had only the First Sky of Ethereal God Realm cultivation base. As the three Ethereal God Realm experts had her surrounded, if they wanted to kill her, it was very unlikely that she would escape.
She could have chosen to ignore Shi Yan and retreated. With Blood Devil's reputation, no one would have dared to stop them.
But if Wu Lan wanted to be involved, it was going to be hard to protect herself.
Tu Fei kept silent, coldly looked at Wu Lan and waiting for her final decision.
A blood light emerged on the Blood Soul Sea. Shi Yan's cold and harsh visage appeared in that light as he looked at Wu Lan in the distance. He spoke calmly, "My matter has nothing to do with you guys originally. I won't say a word if you leave. You shouldn't shoulder it for me."
Wu Lan suddenly smiled as she was happy. Deliberately, she thinned her lips, whispering. "Seems like everybody thinks that I can't afford to join this battle."
Then, Wu Lan's black wings opened, flapping gently.
A strange world grew from above her head. It was a gray, gloomy area, like a shadow of the real world. They could see everything from the real world in there. They saw Shi Yan, Tu Fei, and the three Ethereal God Realm experts surrounding Wu Lan.
Just like an image in the water, it reflected the real world. This was Wu Lan's power Upanishad: Shadow. Wu Lan rose her slender fingers. Tu Fei in her world was bound by dark light. Just like his shadow, Tu Fei in the real world seemed to be restrained too.
In the real world, Tu Fei discolored. He suddenly felt an unknown force binding him entirely. He couldn't even move.
The tornados which were swaggering around halted and then vanished.
Wu Lan had a weak smile on her face. Her eyebrows were like a picture. Her fingers emitted beams of light, shooting towards the Shadow Ethereal Extent above her head, aiming at the three Ethereal God Realm experts in there.
The three warriors in the world of shadows were tied by the light as if they were bound by their own shadows. The warriors in the real world were also bound. The Shadow power Upanishad restrained them, preventing them from urging their energy.
Wu Lan was still smiling tenderly. Her dedicate waist swayed gently and she glided through her world of shadows like another shadow.
Her beautiful, exquisite fingers continually poked the shadows of Tu Fei's team. Tu Fei and the other three warriors in the real world screeched. They all had bloody holes in their God Bodies, which were bleeding badly.
Wu Lan's power Upanishad was magical yet bizarre. It could project small shadows of objects in the real world to her Ethereal Extent. She didn't need to attack the warriors in the real world but still did significant damage to them.
This kind of power Upanishad was eccentric. They didn't know how she had cultivated it to such a profound level. She could even generate a world of shadows, which was truly powerful and terrifying.
What a fierce woman!
Shi Yan was astounded. At this moment, he was looking at her seriously for the first time.
He now realized that Wu Lan was afraid of him and Fei Lan so she had to move away in Broken Star Field. She just wanted to see if he knew how to use the Immortal Grass or not. If she had attacked them with her best abilities, Fei Lan wouldn't have been able to defend herself.
Wu Lan also has the competence to fight warriors at higher realms than hers!
Among the four Ethereal God Realm experts, two were at the same realm as Wu Lan and the other two were one level higher than her at Second Sky of Ethereal God Realm.
However, when Wu Lan released her power Upanishad, her world of shadows appeared. She gained the upper hand in just a blink. Tu Fei and the others were subdued before they could seize the time to generate their Ethereal Extents.
"You better seize this chance and escape. I only have the energy to bind them for one hour." Wu Lan said softly in her Ethereal Extent, her eyes serious. "The four of them are at Ethereal God Realm. Even though I did as much as I can, I can't kill them all. Also, more and more experts will come. I can only spare you one hour."
Shi Yan darkened his face. He said, "Thank you."
He knew how dangerous the situation was. At this moment, only Niger's and Da Feng's forces had joined the battle. The other forces of Broken Star Field were still indifferent. He knew he endured until this moment thanks to the space spider web.
If he let more Ethereal God Realm warriors approach, he wouldn't be able to resist such forces. They would smash his soul quickly.
The reason why he was persistent and didn't flee was to gain the utmost benefits from the others' deaths to fill his energy.
"Since you've cultivated Space power Upanishad, you should have a way to get out of here." Wu Lan mulled over the situation for a while and then said sincerely, "If you leave, remember to visit our territory. We've done so many things just so that you can meet our Master."
"How can I find your Master?" Shi Yan was surprised.
"Come to Devil Blood Star. As long as you can get to Devil Blood Star, my Master will be there. I'm sure that no one from the Far West region will dare to pursue you!"
"I will remember." Nodding, Shi Yan's thought changed. A flow of space energy emitted from his body. Space slits appeared thickly in front of him.
"Kill!"
All of a sudden, hotshots standing on the battleships out of the battle site suddenly thundered.
They could see that Shi Yan was planning to run away.
Warriors cultivating Space power Upanishad were the most slippery warriors in the world of martial arts. When they activated space slits and went through it, no one would stop them.
Instantly, several thousand icicles, thunderbolts, fire columns, and electric dragons created from different powers moved agilely through the space slits, attacking Shi Yan like lances thrusting into the bone.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
His space exploded. Space energy that Shi Yan was urging disordered. He couldn't build the space bridge.
The Blood Soul Sea was destroyed by several thousand powers Upanishad. It was torn apart, creating clusters of blood clouds. The wicked intent domain was ruined.
Ptui!
Shi Yan spat out blood. Those powers Upanishads had affected his mind, distorting his will. Although he was fast enough to sway his body and dodge the icicles, electric dragons, and lightning snakes, he couldn't protect his body completely.
Although his God Body was as hard as heavenly rock, it couldn't endure the bombarding of different energies from the hotshots. The fierce energies seeped into his blood and flesh, damaging his bones and muscles. His God Body was now wounded severely.
"He's not dead yet!"
"Wow, he's not dead!"
"How is he not dead?!?"
Many warriors on the battleships were frightened, their faces grimaced.
That young man had only Second Sky of Original God Realm, but his God Body wasn't blown off by the bombarding of different powers Upanishad. His soul altar didn't fly out. It was beyond their imagination.
"This man is scary! His God Body's intensity could... perhaps be compared to the Monster Clan experts. Otherwise, he could never have resisted such powerful attacks!"
"His God Body is tremendous. How many times has he quenched his body to reach such a level?"
"Seems like he has a big harvest deep in Broken Star Field. We have to capture his soul altar to extract his memory to get the truth of what had happened back there."
"Right."
The reasons why they came here for Shi Yan didn't include just asking him to pay for what he'd done but also to know what he had gotten in Broken Star Field!"
The Broken Star Field had existed for tens of thousands of years in the Far West region. The extremely marvelous ability it had was attracting pieces of broken stars. People thought that it had a secret and that it was a whole new world. As Shi Yan had broken the magic of Broken Star Field, which led to the disintegration of Broken Star Field, they thought that he had harvested this secret.
Regardless of what it actually was, all of them thought that this secret was a critical matter. They wanted to share the benefits from this secret.
This was their real purpose for letting Shi Yan stay alive.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Shi Yan's bones resounded noisily and strangely. His God Body turned red as the Immortal Demon Blood inside which was surging, healing his damaged body.
After a short moment of astonishment, the onlookers frowned, flying towards Shi Yan to capture him or to restrain his soul altar. In their eyes, Shi Yan was the key to unlocking Broken Star Field's anomaly.
They were afraid that they would be slower than others. All moved as fast as lightning as if they were crossing long distances and appeared in front of Shi Yan in just a blink of an eye.
As they had been waiting for a long time, seeing this opportunity, they weren't hesitant anymore.
