Chapter 598 Enraged Shura Lightning.
Shi Lang stabbed the young man. His speed was so fast that the opponent did not have the time to intercept the attack. The terran did not want to play Mister Nice Guy with him. His spear was aimed at the openings in his posture as he charged at Shi Lang.
Shi Lang used no fancy skill, just plain old basic stab. The people watching the battle from the outside could not help but look at Peak Master Cao. The old man was clenching his fist as he watched the battle.
He did not expect Shi Lang to be so talented in the way of spear. He could tell from just one glance that the young man was a killer. His weapons were meant to kill people and nothing else. His heart shivered as he watched Shi Lang ruthlessly stab his student's body. The young man did not have any chance before he was defeated.
His body fell to the ground and slid on the dust. Shi Lang did not even bother to help the person and just stood there. After a few moments, the shock settled in the people's minds. Xia Tian was watching the entire thing unfold and did not say anything. He walked over to his fellow disciple, fed him a healing pill, and said, "You do have some skill to defeat him with such ease."
Shi Lang replied with his back facing the young man, "Can you come and fight so that we can end it already?"
Xia Tian raised his brow and said, "You are too eager to be defeated. I am unlike my junior brothers."
Shi Lang nodded and said, "I am counting on that."
The two of them were standing back to back, and it did not seem like they were going to fight, but suddenly, the skies thundered, and then a streak of lightning flashed in the skies.
The two people turned around, and their spear shafts collided. The impact was strong and pushed them both back by five steps. Then began a battle that everyone was looking forward to. Both of them held their spears and stabbed at each other. Shi Lang was not interested in attacking the enemy, but he could predict where the attack would come from using his ability to sense the movement.
He ensured that the tips of their spearheads would collide—this shocked Xia Tian. The young man did not expect Shi Lang to be so quick and accurate regarding spear control. If this was not all, the two of them swinging the shaft to fight with each other. Shi Lang was too skilled.
Xia Tian realized that the terran had a profound foundation in basic skills. He did not know where this guy acquired all this knowledge from. However, it was a shock, no less. Thinking about this, he decided to use his profound skills.
He channeled spiritual energy into his body and then into the spear. The spear in his hand glowed with a fiery vermillion glow. It was as if the metal had been put in a high-temperature furnace. He gave a low shout, "Hundered fire petals."
Then his hands seemed to turn into a fiery gun, and the spear tip turned into bullets. Xia Tian attacked Shi Lang from all directions. This sequence of moves was aimed at all the openings that Shi Lang could expose. However, the terran fought very tightly. His speed was not slow. He retreated and advanced amidst the attacks showering over him.
He did not suffer at all. Suddenly, Xia Tian let out a low roar and said, "Flame rain."
The spear seemed to have transformed into drops of water and attacked Shi Lang from the skies. The terran raised his brows and said, "Cloud fleeting steps."
He moved around, covering his body with a few strands of lightning. He dodged the attacks with such precision that shocked the people. They did not expect him to see through the combination attack.
Peak Master Cao could not hold onto his calm demeanor and asked, "Can someone tell me what is happening with this guy? Is he not a sword cultivator."
Mei Lingyao saw that the old man was rattled and grasped the opportunity, "Is there any rule that says a Sword Cultivator cannot be a Spear master, too?"
Peak Master Cao glared at her, but she did not pay him any heed. She was focused on Shi Lang engaged in battle. The young man had surprised her a lot of times before, but this was something she did not expect at all. After a few moments, Xia Tian lost his temper and said, "Can you only dodge? Come and fight me if you dare!"
Shi Lang replied in a casual tone, "Be careful what you wish for."
The next moment, his entire body was covered with lightning sparks, and Shi Lang said, "Thousand lightning stabs the heavens."
The next moment, Shi Lang's figure flickered at a high speed, and then his spear stabbed at Xia Tian from all sides. The latter was pushed into a passive position and had to use the shaft of his spear to defend himself. Shi Lang did not give him much trauma and said, "Shura Domain."
A field of lightning condensed around the two people, and Xia Tian froze. He could not believe what was happening. He invoked his spiritual armor to cover his body, and some pressure of the domain was loosened, but Shi Lang was also an Immortal Lord. His armor also appeared, and then Shi Lang said, "Now, you shall see the might of lightning."
...
Shi Lang stood covered with lightning armor and said, "Lightning Dragon strike."
He jumped into the void and appeared above Xia Tian. He waved the spear shaft down, and the lightning condensed into a dragon above Shi Lang. Following the spear arc, it attacked Xia Tian.
It was not that the young man did not have a chance to defend himself, but that Shi Lang did not give him a chance to. The lightning dragon rushed to Xia Tian with its mouth open wide.
Peak Master Cao vanished from his position, and Shi Lang suddenly gave up attacking and put on a defensive posture. The next moment, he was thrown to the side.
Although the attack was not much, but such an interruption caused his spirit energy to leave a backlash and Shi Lang coughed up a mouthful of blood, before he stood up and shouted, "Cao Mingjing, how dare you?!"
