Chapter 603 Wang Jian's True Devil Bloodline Power
Chapter 603 Wang Jian\'s True Devil Bloodline Power
Wang Jian, for the first time since the battle began, seemed to take notice. The amusement that had previously played on his lips vanished, replaced by a flicker of seriousness. He raised his hand, the darkness around him condensing into a swirling shield – the "Void Gate."
The shield, pulsating with an ominous energy, intercepted Lin Fei\'s attack. The moment the Galactic Annihilation collided with the Void Gate, a blinding flash of light erupted, momentarily engulfing the entire area in its blinding radiance.
A shockwave of unimaginable force rippled outwards, tearing through the fabric of space itself. The Heavenly Jade Pavilion battleship, caught in the crossfire, shuddered violently, its massive hull groaning in protest.
When the light finally subsided, both Lin Fei and Wang Jian were still standing, though their postures had changed significantly. Lin Fei, his body ravaged by the forbidden power he wielded, stood hunched over, his breathing ragged. The ethereal wings on his back had begun to dissipate, the celestial runes flickering and fading from his skin.
Wang Jian, on the other hand, seemed relatively unscathed. His face, however, displayed a hint of grim respect for the power Lin Fei had unleashed.
"Interesting," he murmured, his voice devoid of its usual smugness. "A hidden strength indeed. But even a borrowed power cannot stand against true might."
He raised his hand again, and this time, a chilling darkness unlike any they had encountered before condensed around it. "Now," he said, his voice dripping with malice, "face the true power of the Eternal Night."
Just as despair threatened to consume Lin Fei, a tear in the fabric of space ripped open, revealing a majestic figure bathed in ethereal flames. It was the Great Ancient Phoenix, the revered leader of the Ancient Phoenix Clan, his arrival heralded by a wave of searing heat and blinding light.
"Lin Fei!" the Great Ancient Phoenix boomed, his voice resonating with ancient power. "Fear not, young one. I shall shield you from this darkness!"
The very air crackled with tension as the Great Ancient Phoenix spread his fiery wings, their size dwarfing even the Heavenly Jade Pavilion battleship. An aura of immense power, far exceeding anything Wang Jian had displayed so far, washed over the battlefield.
Wang Jian\'s earlier amusement evaporated, replaced by a sneer. "A Divine Ascension Realm cultivator," he scoffed. "Do you truly believe you can interfere here?"
Ignoring Wang Jian\'s taunts, the Great Ancient Phoenix focused on Lin Fei. "Rest, young one," he commanded, his voice a soothing balm. "Let me handle this."
Lin Fei, his body ravaged by the forbidden power, slumped against the debris of the shattered dome, his consciousness fading.
As the Great Ancient Phoenix moved to confront Wang Jian, a figure emerged from the Heavenly Jade Pavilion battleship. It was Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan, her beauty captivating even in the midst of the chaotic battle. But within her breathtaking form lay a deadly cultivator of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion, clad in a shimmering, jade-green armor.
"Hold your feathered fury, Great Phoenix," Cui Lan purred, her voice laced with honeyed venom. "I wouldn\'t want to see you get singed before you enjoy a proper fight."
With lightning speed, Cui Lan unleashed a barrage of attacks. "Jade Gale Blades!" she cried, conjuring a whirlwind of razor-sharp emerald blades that sliced through the void, leaving trails of shimmering green light.
The Great Ancient Phoenix, unfazed, countered with a fiery breath attack – "Solar Flare." A torrent of golden flames erupted from his beak, melting Cui Lan\'s jade blades into molten slag in an instant.
Cui Lan, surprised by the sheer power of the Great Ancient Phoenix, responded with a defensive technique – "Jade Turtle Shield." A shimmering barrier of jade materialized before her, deflecting the remaining embers of the Solar Flare.
The battle between the two powerhouses intensified. Cui Lan unleashed technique after technique, drawing upon the formidable arsenal of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion. "Emerald Serpent Strike!" she yelled, conjuring a serpentine creature made of condensed jade energy, its emerald scales glinting menacingly as it lunged towards the Great Ancient Phoenix.
The Great Ancient Phoenix met this attack head-on with a "Phoenix Claw Swipe." His fiery claws ripped through the Emerald Serpent, leaving behind only dissipating jade dust.
The battle continued, each exchange of blows shaking the very fabric of space. The Great Ancient Phoenix, wielding the raw power of his bloodline, countered Cui Lan\'s intricate techniques with devastating force. His fiery attacks, fueled by the power of the sun, melted and vaporized the jade constructs Cui Lan summoned.
Meanwhile, Wang Jian focused his attention back on Lin Fei. The Great Ancient Phoenix\'s arrival, however unexpected, couldn\'t deter him. He raised his hand, the darkness surrounding him condensing into a swirling vortex - the "Maw of Oblivion."
"Your precious protector cannot save you all," Wang Jian declared, a cruel smile twisting his lips. "Face the true power of the Eternal Night!"
A torrent of dark energy surged out of the Maw of Oblivion, aimed directly at Lin Fei. This energy, unlike anything Lin Fei had encountered before, emanated an aura of pure annihilation.
A monstrous entity, formed entirely from this darkness, manifested behind Wang Jian. Its form resembled a gigantic wolf, its eyes burning with an eerie blue light. This was the manifestation of Wang Jian\'s bloodline – the "Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Bloodline."
The Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Wolf roared, its voice a cacophony of tortured screams. Hungering for destruction, it lunged towards Lin Fei, its claws dripping with a dark ichor. The power radiating from the beast was immense, far exceeding anything Lin Fei could muster in his weakened state.
A surge of defiance coursed through Lin Fei\'s ravaged body. Even on the brink of collapse, fueled by the unyielding spirit of the Sacred Ancient Body, he wouldn\'t go down without a fight. With a roar that echoed through the void, he channeled the last vestiges of celestial power within him.
A blinding light erupted around him, momentarily pushing back the encroaching darkness. Within the light, his fists crackled with a crackling energy, a desperate fusion of the Celestial Harmony Technique and the forbidden power of his bloodline.He named this final attack the "Starlight Shattering Blow."
From the debris of the shattered dome, Chu Yang and Chen Feng also emerged, their faces etched with determination. They wouldn\'t abandon their comrade in his hour of need.
Chu Yang, summoning his divine energy, channeled it through a defensive technique – the "Azure Dragon\'s Sanctuary." A shimmering barrier, formed from the power of lightning, materialized around Lin Fei, shielding him from the encroaching darkness.
"Don\'t worry, Lin Fei," Chu Yang shouted, his voice laced with unwavering resolve. "We\'ll buy you some time!"
Chen Feng, his body still recovering from the backlash of his Soul Severing Symphony, focused his remaining spiritual energy. "Spirit Ward!" he cried, conjuring ethereal chains that snaked out, attempting to bind the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Wolf.
The battle reached a fever pitch. Lin Fei, his form engulfed in the Starlight Shattering Blow, launched himself at the dark energy vortex. The celestial energy met the darkness in a deafening clash. While the Starlight Shattering Blow couldn\'t completely dispel the dark energy, it managed to create a temporary breach, allowing a sliver of light to reach the approaching wolf.
However, this momentary reprieve came at a terrible cost. The forbidden power of the Sacred Ancient Body overwhelmed Lin Fei. The celestial runes on his skin flickered and died, and a horrifying scream ripped from his throat as his life force began to be drained by the forbidden power he wielded.
Meanwhile, the Azure Dragon\'s Sanctuary, while initially holding its ground against the onslaught of the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Wolf, began to crack under the relentless pressure of its dark ichor.
And Chen Feng\'s Spirit Ward, though they managed to momentarily bind the wolf\'s limbs, were quickly corroded by the dark energy, dissipating into wisps of spiritual essence.
The combined efforts of Chu Yang and Chen Feng, valiant though they were, proved to be insufficient against the overwhelming power of the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Wolf. The Sanctuary shattered, the Spirit Ward dissolved, and the Starlight Shattering Blow fizzled out, leaving Lin Fei defenseless against the encroaching darkness.
A sense of despair threatened to engulf them all. Lin Fei, drained and weakened, was on the verge of being consumed by the dark energy. Chu Yang and Chen Feng, their attacks spent, watched helplessly as the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Wolf lunged at their fallen comrade, its maw dripping with destructive energy.
