Chapter 1346: A Familiar Person
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
At the time of Xiao Qi’s arrival in Tianhun Academy, the entirety of the Soul Kings and Soul Emperors in the Capital were already fighting to the best of their abilities. Unfortunately, information was extremely lacking and so these individuals had a hard time determining who was friend and who was foe.
So it came as a surprise for everyone to suddenly feel an overwhelming number of auras to appear out of thin air in Tianhun Academy. The situation became even more startling when the auras all shot into different directions.
No one could be blamed for being so heavily surprised. So many powerful signatures appearing all at once? Definitely a sight to be heavily concerned about.
The ones from the Capital were all terrified that they might be the enemy’s reinforcements. The ones from the Liang were all deeply fearful; they all knew about their operation in the academy. These newcomers definitely weren’t their own, meaning…they were reinforcements for the other side!!
Regardless, combatants from both sides of the conflict gave the academy a wide berth so they could observe the ‘enemy’ reinforcements warily.
The fighters from the Crafting and Fate School relegated themselves to differing areas of the Capital, but none of them began to fight just yet. They had to determine who was on their side and who wasn’t, but that was something that could easily be solved via communication. The nightmare was just about to begin for the Liang…
Almost a hundred Soul Kings and twenty Soul Emperors were gathered here; this was definitely a fighting force capable of shifting the tide of any war!!
……
On one side, Bai Yunfei, Shen Pojun, and Xiao Qi led Chu Yintian and a few other Soul Emperors straight for the Imperial Palace. As they flew, Bai Yunfei looked down upon the carnage that littered the Capital. It infuriated him to see the wrecked state of the city he once lived in for some time. And to think the lives of so many innocents were lost!
Everyone a part of the Liang was of the Soul King level or higher and were thus fighting in the air. Attacks were made with complete disregard for the Capital down below, forcing a network of Soul Exalts to try their best to ward off whatever they could. The defensive network wasn’t entirely effective, however. They weren’t able to completely protect every part of the Capital and so several buildings would be hit every so often and forced to collapse. When they did, the casualties between the commoners and weaker soul cultivators grew higher.
“Lao Sha! I’ll leave the ground to you, protect those people!!”
Before they reached the palace, Bai Yunfei made a quick stop to bring Lao Sha out from the Core World to give it a single order.
“Woof!!”
Lao Sha barked once as if to say “Leave it to me!!”
“Whoosh!!”
And off the dog went. It was actually wearing warboots on each of its with a wind affinity to them so as to allow the dog rapid movement across the buildings. Waves of energy began to arise from the dog, mysteriously attracting every single elemental attack within the vicinity toward the dog’s mouth so it could eat it!
Over the course of its awakening, Lao Sha had been under deep training and was now stronger than ever. Whatever the dog was now, not even the Frostfeather Saint was able to offer up an explanation. But its strength was definitely unquestionable!!
All Lao Sha had to do was open its mouth and any elemental attack within its radius (one larger than before) would be ‘cleaned up’!
“Woof!!”
Lao Sha leaped upward into the air after the first wave was fully devoured. Bounding toward another area, the dog then began to finish its job before any of the attacks could impact against the ground.
Lao Sha was effectively a super-powered ‘vacuum cleaner’ that was trying to ‘sweep’ up every mess within the Capital…
As powerful as Lao Sha was, Bai Yunfei had Tang Xinyun and Xiao Bai accompany it for its protection.
“……”
Once again, Shen Pojun and the others could do nothing but sigh incredulously at the ‘power’ Lao Sha possessed.
“Boom!!!”
A tremendous explosion detonated from higher up in the skies, causing both Bai Yunfei and Shen Pojun to pale!
“A Late-stage Soul Saint!! They have someone of that caliber on their side?! How?!”
This was Bai Yunfei’s first time ever sensing someone so powerful. He could hardly believe it almost! From where chaotic energy ran supreme, Bai Yunfei felt the power of someone that was distinctly a Late-stage Soul Saint!
It…shouldn’t have been possible. No Late-stage Soul Saint was ever recorded to be living in today’s era of soul cultivators. Had the rebels brought out such a figure earlier then the Royal Family would’ve fallen a long time ago!
Bai Yunfei and Shen Pojun shared a glance at one another, “Let’s go!!”
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh…”
Together, Bai Yunfei, Xiao Qi, and Shen Pojun all ascended to the heavens!
……
Above the Imperial Palace where the golden dome was.
The battle between Wu Hong and Liang Fu was still going on. The two fought each other intensely before retreating for a quick reprieve. It was during that time Liang Fu took notice of the incoming people.
“That’s…Bai Yunfei!! How is he alive?!”
As long ago his meeting with Bai Yunfei was, Liang Fu was still keenly familiar with his aura signature and was so astonished that he found himself saying his thoughts out loud.
“Bai Yunfei?!”
Wu Hong was equally astonished. But unlike Liang Fu, Wu Hong was greatly happy to see him!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!”
But Bai Yunfei didn’t fly to where they were. Instead of coming to aid Wu Hong, the three Saints ascended through the clouds and disappeared higher up. Even the people that followed the three split up to aid the other battles surrounding Wu Hong and Liang Fu. It was all as if they knew who the two were and didn’t want to ‘interrupt’ anything.
They all knew where the three Saints where going. They were planning to interrupt the battle higher up in the heavens!
Three Saints!
Hope rekindled inside of Wu Hong’s heart. Glaring cooly at the stunned Liang Fu, he lunged at him with the Soul Slayer in hand to renew his attack!
“Bai Yunfei is alive…does that mean the Bloodsoaked Demon Lord and Shangguan Xiongyan are both dead?! No…that can’t be!” Liang Fu despaired to himself. Such a realization made him sick to the stomach.
“Who cares if he’s not dead?! It’s good that he came! A mere Early-stage Soul Saint is but an insect in the eyes of the Divine Ancestor!! He’ll die in the end!”
Confidence renewed, Liang Fu leaped back to avoid being cut by the Soul Slayer. It was time to continue the battle!
……
Bai Yunfei, Shen Pojun, and Xiao Qi broke through the skies into where only chaotic energy resided. Entering chaotic space, Bai Yunfei’s very first action was to bring out the Cataclysmic Seal and send it flying forward.
“Whoosh!!”
A figure had been falling down when the three of them broke the surface into chaotic space. Caught by a ball of red light, the figure was safely cushioned by the energy while the Cataclysmic Seal blocked a bolt of violet and black lightning with its barrier.
“It’s His Majesty Wu Lie!” Shen Pojun gasped at the sight of the person Bai Yunfei caught.
Bai Yunfei’s eyes narrowed together. Scanning the blood all over the man, Bai Yunfei noted that he was extremely injured and immediately procured a high-grade pill for him to eat. “Senior, please eat this pill and recuperate. Leave the enemy to us!”
“You are…?” Wu Lie’s eyes flickered over to Shen Pojun, “Shen Pojun?! It’s you!”
“Your Majesty,” Bowed Shen Pojun, “Please rest assured, we will take care of the enemy!”
“Then I entrust him to you!” Wu Lie nodded, “Take heed, this man is a survivor of the Liang Kingdom. He is a Late-stage Soul Saint, but his vitality is weakening! He won’t last much longer in battle!”
“A survivor of the Liang? The Liang Kingdom of two thousand years ago?”
Bai Yunfei and Shen Pojun were both surprised to hear the identity of the enemy. Was that the truth of the conflict then? Instead of a struggle for the seat of the throne, this was a battle for the resurrection of the Liang!
“Hmph!”
A voice boomed across chaotic space in response to Wu Lie’s words. A shriveled elder in black robes descended into sight. Even after beating the Early-stage Soul Saint Zhangsun Wuhen and then a Mid-stage Soul Saint, the elder was still completely unharmed!
“Three more Saints have come? Who might you be?” The elder stared inquisitively at the three newcomers.
“Could you be…Bai Yunfei?!” An eyebrow was raised.
He heard Bai Yunfei mentioned before by Liang Fu once, but he was told that someone called the ‘Bloodsoaked Demon Lord’ was going to take care of him, was he not? Then what was Bai Yunfei doing here? Was he…a Mid-stage Soul Saint instead of an Early-stage Soul Saint then?!
“Hmph! It matters not! Prepare to die together! Your Regalias will be used by Liang Fu to unite the continent under Liang rule!”
Time was running out for the elder. He couldn’t afford to delay the conclusion of the battle any longer. He had to make sure to kill every last opponent before his own life expired, these four Saints would do!
……
“Boom!!”
The attack came abruptly and without hesitation. The elder used no soul armament and instead used a beam of chaotic energy to attack. Infused in those beams were also slivers of elemental lightning and darkness. Together, the three elements fused to become a devastating force of energy!
“Bzzz…”
Bai Yunfei was already preparing a defense, however. The Cataclysmic Seal generated a large orange barrier and protected all four Saints behind it.
“Boom!!”
The barrier held for several seconds before finally succumbing to the pressure and shattering!
“Watch out!!”
Although he knew that the barrier wouldn’t be able to endure the attack, Bai Yunfei was still quite surprised to see just how strong the attack was. The remaining slivers of chaotic energy, elemental lightning, and elemental darkness were still in enough quantities after breaking the barrier that the four of them had to activate barriers of their own.
“Core, why do I feel like this person is…familiar?” A voice popped up in Bai Yunfei’s mind when he just managed to block the remaining energy. It was the Soul Sealing Mandate.
“You too? I had the same feeling! I feel like I know this person somehow…” The spirit of the Core Stone replied back.
“Oh! I got it!! Back when we used to be with Tianhun, we had to fight this person before!!” The spirit of the Soul Sealing Mandate suddenly erupted with an answer, “He’s…Liang Yinshen!!”
