Chapter 494: " I Can Help"

Name:Condemning the Heavens Author:
Although Xue Wei and his companions were arrogant in nature, they were also aware of when this arrogance had to be packed away.

Although they knew that the soldiers who were advancing towards them would not be able to kill them, they might end up injured if they were not careful.

They also had to consider their stamina. This was not a standard battle; this was a small group of experts against a whole base full of cultivators.

While they could overpower every one of them in a one on one battle, things were trickier now that the soldiers were gathered together.

Xue Wei did not instantly transform into an Azure Dragon, nor did he turn into a Vermilion Bird. While he knew that his stamina and attack power was increased when taking one of these two forms, he was also aware that these forms could not be used indiscriminately.

While they were stronger than the ordinary human body, and the stamina was greater, the Qi usage was also greater than in his normal body.

As long as he could depend entirely on brute force to crush the others, then the Azure Dragon form was without a doubt the best option. However, to defeat the army experts, he was aware that he had to use Qi, and thus he decided against transforming.

When his stamina could no longer keep up, or if the experts became too numerous, then he would take the chance to turn into an Azure Dragon, but for now, it was still manageable.

Luoluo flickered her wrist, and the giant icy Mingshe appeared, with blue eyes filled with a dangerous glint, coiling around her like a protective armor.

This Mingshe was the heritage that Lan had left in the Ascended's Realm, so it was naturally not bad. Although it consumed energy to activate it, Luoluo had an almost unending supply of Spiritual Energy, and could provide it with all the power that it needed.

She was the first to jump into the fight, ice arrows were being thrown from her hands with a mere movement of her wrist, and the ground had soon turned frozen, causing some trouble for the advancing soldiers.

Not only this, but she was also aiming her arrows at the soldiers, and the unfortunate souls that were hit ended up frozen solid on the spot.

The Mingshe legacy that Luoluo had gained came from an Overlord,, and the destructive damage that it could cause was overwhelming it was not to be belittled at all.

Seeing Luoluo attacks, Lin Xiao smiled wryly. He would not let her attack alone, so he took out a staff from his storage treasure and wielded it with great affinity as he charged at the soldiers. While he did not have the same area of effect attacks, he could end the opponents with a mere ten moves.

He used sheer power to defeat the enemies, bashing them into a meaty paste, and then moving on to the next, who were full of trepidation, but refused to give up.

Hei Gou felt his blood boiling when he saw the fight in front of him, and he quickly found his claws, which he then placed on his hands before he too joined the battle.

Hei Gou's battle method was known to be frantic. He relied on his beastly instincts to avoid damage and attacked in a flurry.

His claws, which were sharp like razors and relatively long, were able to shred people to pieces, and he took delight in the feeling of shredding their bodies.

Xue Wei did not want to waste time, so he conjured a sword out of Qi and threw himself into the battle, feeling the familiar rush of excitement as he killed one enemy after another.

Only Lan and Bai Tianyi did not fight. They stood at the back, looking at the bloody battle with curiosity.

"Are they always so bloody?" Lan asked, with a smirk on his lips. He, too, had killed numerous people in his life, but he found that this particular group of people were much more ferocious than he had ever been.

While he had killed people, he had been as clean in it as possible, but these people seemed to want to create a mountain of corpses and rivers of blood.

"The pleasure of killing is easily drowning them," Bai Tianyi answered casually. "It is a strength when considering their fighting ability, but it is also a downside since you might lose yourself in the battle."

Lan glanced at Bai Tianyi with curious eyes. This little artificial sword spirit was not dumb.

"Do you ever regret your choice of becoming an artificial spirit?" he asked curiously, but Bai Tianyi paused visibly when he heard it.

"You are indeed able to reach the apex of this world, and maybe even go further, but you have lost the majority of your emotions."

Bai Tianyi lowered his eyes and sighed. "Regret or no regret; there is nothing to change any longer. My emotions have been severed, and I have become an artificial spirit. I never understood that human potential is much stronger than that of an artificial spirit. However, this is a shortcut."

Lan nodded his head. "If we manage to come back from the Ghost Realm at some point, I can help you," he said while observing the ongoing battle in front of him.

"I can not make you human again, but I can unseal your emotions. In fact, they are not severed; they are just sealed deep within. This is what happens to artificial spirits, but I can make you become a genuine one, just like your companion, Luoluo."
