Chapter 177: Confrontation

Blackwater Palace Lord looked at the three Great Solar Godfiends in the distance and found them amusing . He couldn’t help but let out a low laugh . He laughed self-deprecatingly and said, “Our Skydemon Sect has been hiding all this time, preventing us fourth Firmament Skydemons from showcasing our strength . Has this given you the illusion that the three of you can block me in a head-on clash?”

The distant trio remained cautious .

“It’s Blackwater Palace Lord,” said Zhang Yunfeng via voice transmission . “We can try . ”

“More Godfiends have died in battle in Jiang State Capital’s eastern district than all the other city districts combined . So there’s a fourth Firmament Skydemon hidden here . ” The muscular Yang Fang’s eyes were filled with battle intent . He was the only non-Marquis Godfiend from Archean Mountain that had mastered a Great Strength Fiend Body, and he was at the Realm of Intent . Over the past few years, no one at the Great Solar realm could compete with him in strength . Now, he was itching to fight a fourth Firmament Skydemon . “Senior Brother Zhang, let me fight him head-on! I’m not afraid of him in a head-on battle . ”

“Be careful . After all, he has attained Greater Mastery of the Realm of Dao,” said Meng Chuan . “His moves are extremely exquisite . He managed to crack my saber art in a single exchange . ”

While the three of them were conversing, the distant Blackwater Palace Lord moved .

Whoosh .

Blackwater Palace Lord transformed into a blur as he charged at the trio . As the leader of one of Skydemon Sect’s seven lineages, how could he flee when facing three Great Solar Godfiends! He had to kill them!

“He’s coming . ” Zhang Yunfeng immediately gave the order . “I’ll suppress his strength with all my might . Junior Brother Meng, act according to plan . Junior Brother Yang, take action!”

“Alright . ” Meng Chuan and Yang Fang nodded .

Yang Fang’s eyes narrowed as he watched Blackwater Palace Lord—who had transformed into a blur . He lifted the two axes on his back with his Quintessential Essence and caught one with each hand! The axe’s blade was rather large, and the two axes were like huge shields when he held them in front of himself .

“Senior Brother Zhang, Junior Brother Meng, watch me . ” Yang Fang’s fighting spirit surged as he took a step forward and stomped the ground . He transformed into a blur as he charged towards Blackwater Palace Lord .

Blackwater Palace Lord and Yang Fang reached each other in the blink of an eye .

Whoosh .

The surging energy in Yang Fang’s body gathered in his right hand . His right hand had already raised the large axe high as he cleaved down!

This strike produced a sanguine light! This move perfectly fused strength and technique . Even a mountain would be split apart by Yang Fang’s axe .

However, Blackwater Palace Lord confidently thought nothing of it . It was also because Yang Fang had converged his strength too seamlessly . Blackwater Palace Lord held a Water Splitter in each hand as he casually crossed the blades to block the axe .

Right at this moment—

In the distance, Zhang Yunfeng—who was skilled with domains—unleashed his domain’s full strength . As the only Great Solar Godfiend in the trio whose technique realm matched Blackwater Palace Lord’s, his domain’s strength was nothing to scoff at . He only revealed 50 percent of his strength in the beginning to trick the opponent .

At this moment, he used 100 percent of his strength, causing the domain’s suppressive powers to rise sharply!

Not good . Blackwater Palace Lord felt the pressure in the domain rapidly increase . Without time to think any further, Yang Fang’s axe struck Blackwater Palace Lord’s two Water Splitters . The immense impact caused Blackwater Palace’s body to sink into the ground . One hundred feet around Blackwater Palace Lord, the ground had sunken ten feet deep after the collision .

“Die!” Yang Fang became even more ferocious and violent . After cleaving down with his right axe, he followed up with the axe in his left hand .

Swoosh .

A blurry figure flashed, and a Water Splitter blocked the axe . Blackwater Palace Lord nimbly retracted his strength and immediately retreated far away .

Blackwater Palace Lord wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled at Yang Fang before looking at Zhang Yunfeng and Meng Chuan . “You are indeed cunning . Many Marquis Godfiends’ domains aren’t as strong as yours . Your domain has greatly affected me,” said Blackwater Palace Lord when he looked at Zhang Yunfeng . Following that, his gaze landed on Yang Fang . “The strength of the Great Strength Fiend Body is also greater than I expected . There’s also Meng Chuan… You are the best at running . Why don’t you try attacking me? The domain currently suppresses me . ”

Meng Chuan stood far away and ignored him .

In a life-and-death battle, he had to be rational and calm! He knew how to play to his strengths and avoid his shortcomings . Although the domain had suppressed Blackwater Palace Lord, if he were to engage in close combat, Blackwater Palace Lord would probably use a forbidden spell and attack him with all his might . It would be dangerous for him .

“How timid . Other than him, none of you dare approach me . ” Blackwater looked at Yang Fang . “Great Strength Fiend Body, do you think you can defeat me?”

As he spoke, a long snake’s tail grew from his coccyx .

Swoosh .

Blackwater quickly charged towards Yang Fang . When he charged forward, he had his long tail aiding him . He could use his tail to borrow strength, so his movement techniques were much faster and more unpredictable . However, the domain greatly suppressed his strength . Otherwise, his movements would be even more unpredictable .

“Good timing . ” Yang Fang was not afraid at all . He enjoyed head-on clashes since he had the Great Strength Fiend Body .

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Yang Fang used two axes with both hands . The two axes worked together in an exquisite manner as he rushed forward .

However, Blackwater Palace Lord didn’t fight him head-on . Weapons like Water Splitter weren’t meant for head-on clashes . He was agile and constantly attacking, causing Yang Fang’s heart to tighten . However, his two axes were large enough, providing him with sufficient defense in a rather large area . It caused Blackwater Palace Lord’s constant attacks to fail .

Darn it . It’s all because of that old man, Zhang Yunfeng . His domain is too powerful; I can only unleash 60 percent of my strength . My strength and speed have decreased, making me incapable of defeating this Great Strength Fiend Body Godfiend . Blackwater Palace Lord was infuriated . If it were a one-on-one fight, I would have killed the Great Strength Fiend Body expert in ten moves .

Yang Fang’s heart tightened . He was extremely cautious . Having exchanged blows, he could sense how terrifying the other party was . After Zhang Yunfeng’s domain weakened the other party, Yang Fang held a huge advantage in strength, but it wasn’t a crushing advantage! Blackwater Palace Lord was stronger than him in other aspects .

In terms of movement techniques? In terms of technique’s unpredictability? In terms of attacking speed? Yang Fang could not compare to Blackwater Palace Lord in many aspects .

Thankfully, I have Senior Brother Zhang .

Zhang Yunfeng cultivated the Indestructible Divine Body . It was the best with domains among the twelve transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies . His domain was so powerful that it could weaken Marquis Godfiends . The suppression on Blackwater Palace Lord was even greater . Therefore, Archean Mountain had made him lead commander in defending the city .

I have to kill this Zhang Yunfeng . He poses the greatest threat to me . Blackwater Palace Lord’s long tail and legs exerted strength . His demonic powers erupted as he transformed into a blurry phantom and charged towards Zhang Yunfeng .

Zhang Yunfeng was very old .

Blackwater Palace Lord couldn’t be bothered hunting him because Zhang Yunfeng would die from age soon! Furthermore, it was impossible for him to become a Marquis Godfiend . However, Zhang Yunfeng had become the biggest obstacle in his assault on Jiang State Capital!

“Prepare to die . ” Blackwater Palace Lord charged at Zhang Yunfeng . He believed that as long as he got close, it would be easy for him to kill a domain expert . At the very least, it was very easy for Blackwater Palace Lord!

Swoosh .

A bolt of lightning flew past Blackwater Palace Lord, leaving him dumbfounded . In the blink of an eye, he arrived beside Zhang Yunfeng and Blackwater Palace Lord . It was none other than Meng Chuan .

Meng Chuan grabbed Zhang Yunfeng’s arm and transformed into a bolt of lightning again . This time, his speed was slightly reduced—only 70 percent of his normal speed . However, this speed… was still the speed of a Regis Godfiend!

Whoosh .

Blackwater Palace Lord watched in a daze . Meng Chuan rushed to Zhang Yunfeng’s side and brought him to Yang Fang .

“Do you think you can injure Senior Brother Zhang while I’m here?” Meng Chuan smiled at Blackwater Palace Lord .
