Chapter 1113 Stop Daydreaming!
It felt like there was a thunderstorm coming here. William's formation stored the lightning attack from Fang, and fueled the materials around, charging them and the formation to change the nature of the ring of fire around, turning it into a ring of lightning.
Then with thunder, the lightning arcs forming the ring now expanded, travelled fast, and crossed a large distance in the blink of an eye, penetrating through tons of bodies, and turning them all into ash.
"..." Fang stood in his place, motionless, watching all this happening without being able to say a single word. He even had his mouth open agape, while watching something that even he at his prime wouldn't be able to do something close to!
It wasn't just turning the fire into lightning, it was as if William's formation borrowed the fire nature of being berserk and aggressive, and gave it to the shy and short-timed lightning.
The lightning didn't last for a few seconds as it used to, it lasted for a long time. The arcs coming out from the ring of lightning started to dance around, penetrating everything they touched, and kept elongating and expanding, reaching long distances, even close to the areas around the gates.
This made the enemies coming towards this place unable to defend themselves. There was no way to defend against lighting, even if they used darkness techniques, even if they worked together to stop these brutal lightning arcs. At the same time, they couldn't even retreat, as no one was faster than the speed of lightning.
As things took such an interesting turn, Fang looked at William, feeling like it was the first time he ever saw this youngster. He might be a strong and well-knowledgeable spirit master, but when it came down to lightning elements and techniques, he was the best in the world.
He could assess anything related to lightning with a glance, yet he failed to spot the high value of this formation despite him being this close to it, despite watching it getting formed under his nose.
And such a result was something he never imagined to be real. It was unreal, was something he never thought to be true, never crossed his mind that such an explosive might would be in this world.
And then William's last words about this formation rang in his mind, driving him even more insane.
"This is just a small result of the true might of the lightning formation, the true might of the outer world materials... Damn! What will be the real effect then if he has enough materials on him? Would it destroy the entire world or what?!!"
Fang felt fear, for the first time in long decades. At the same time, he felt unmeasurable excitement, one that stemmed from the depths of his spirit.
If this was the true might of the outer world, then his desire to go there ignited fiercer than ever! He was now willing to do anything, anything at all, and get a chance, even if it was slim, to reach that higher realm, to experience wielding such power.
Then he thought about the man who did all this, William. "He did this and he is still a youngster... Damn! I'm envious, truly envying him..." he muttered to himself before the loud voice of William rang in his mind.
"Old man, what are you doing daydreaming like this? Five minutes passed, and you need to release another strike now!"
"Got it," Fang's attitude changed by one hundred and eighty degrees after seeing this formation. He released his technique again and watched the magical effects of the formation as if he was watching the show for the first time ever.
"Don't daydream again! Use these minutes and rest!"
"There is no need for me to do anything else," Fang honestly said, "your formation is killing it already!"
"Damn you old man! Do you think such materials are easy to find? I only have a limited stock of these. If not for your life being in danger by what you did before, I'd not have even considered wasting such precious materials on such lowly enemies!"
The words of William jolted Fang awake. He was right, this wasn't the right stage for such a brutal and scary formation to appear at. The enemies weren't even that important, to begin with, weren't the leaders of the dark masters and monsters, weren't even the leaders of the dark forces in the entire world!
To Fang, such a formation was like the Holy Grail, the grand artefact, one that should be used properly against enemies suiting its devastating effects.
"Let me heal then, I'll shoulder everything later on," Fang said, in a way that felt like he was swearing or taking an oath or something.
"Old man, I didn't do this to burn your life essence again!"
"I won't do that! Can't you see? The formation messed with the enemies around, and they needed lots of time to regroup," Fang saw the effects of the formation were weaning and getting weaker, but the enemies were indeed in a total mess, "not to mention there are still leftovers hanging over the place. The enemies will be weaker than usual, and I can handle them as long as I can."
"Then don't push yourself too much, you have nineteen more times to do it. Then the materials will be lost, and you'll handle the enemies until you say you can't."
"Deal!" Fang returned to be the serious Fang William got used to. He saw how Fang was shocked by the formation's effect, and that felt quite satisfying for William.
But he also needed the old Fang in this battle. "It's great he returned back to his old self," he muttered, before turning towards the ground. During all this, his four monstrous weapons never stopped uncovering the shiny rocks at the bottom of the hole, "I'm curious to know what all this is about..."
His monstrous weapons cleared good space already, but the shining rocks that appeared so far didn't give him any hints or a clue about anything.
