Chapter 1071: Arclight Dragon The golden radiance burst apart in the air. A frightening explosion morphed into a solar flare that covered the entirety of the world of blazing sun. Boulders on the ground were blown away, and the inhabitants of the world, aliens and genetic lifeforms, trembled in fright.
The solar king's battle against Fang Yi and Li Feng was cataclysmic.
A spear arrayed with the forces of wind and storm pierced through the solar king's golden suns. Twisters of wind sucked up the solar flame, and thunder and lightning clashed against it in a series of explosions.
"Interesting. Let's see how much you can handle, then!"
The solar king was dressed in thick golden armor, shining with glittering light. His arms were raised high above his head as ten suns responded to his command, a solar god by might and right.
Even Fang Yi was shocked by the sight of ten suns advancing toward them. His spear pierced through one, but, spent, was unable to handle the other nine.
The solar king ignored his futile attempts. With a wave of his hand, he sent the ten suns falling toward them. Even before they drew near, Fang Yi could sense the frightening heat radiating off them, almost sufficient to melt his body whole.
"[Dance of the Incandescent Wyrm]!" Li Feng summoned thousands of serpents, flaring with blinding light.
The serpents of light shot toward the ten suns, tearing at them and causing them to explode before they could strike Fang Yi.
The golden sunlight radiated through the air, as though there were dozens of solar flares that were coalescing into a more massive whole.
"Thank you!" Fang Yi called back, sending his wind- and storm-charged spear right through the confluence of flares.
"[Heaven's Judgment]! [Tiger's Howl, Dragon's Bellow]!" he shouted.
Wind and storm crackled as Fang Yi infused [Tiger's Howl, Dragon's Bellow] into the attack.
The elements combined at the tip of Fang Yi's spear, and a dragon's howl echoed resoundingly in the air. The spear spun more and more rapidly, detonating the solar flares that hung in the air and increasing the turbulence of the explosion.
Golden radiance surrounded Fang Yi, the extreme temperature unbearable.
His spear rotated rapidly as wind and lightning surged forth, carrying the might of the entire solar storm with it.
The wind drew out the might of the solar storm, and lightning infused itself into the solar energy, turning a bright gold.
Wind howled and thunder crackled. The sun's might gathered over the spear and combined with the forces of wind and lightning. The combination of the three energies turned Fang Yi's spear into a golden saw.
Surrounded by a golden storm, by crackling golden lightning, by a golden dragon of wind and tiger of storm, with the sound of the saw whirring like a tiger's howl, a dragon's bellow, Fang Yi struck.
"[Floating Clouds]!" The wind and lightning formed a loop around Fang Yi's body. When the golden sunlight infused its energy within, it turned into a golden loop.
A golden thunderstorm manifested into existence from behind Fang Yi, like the flames from a rocket boosting himself forward. Sonic booms formed all around him as Fang Yi found himself flying faster than mach speed, shooting toward the solar king like a piercing arrow.
The solar king snarled at Fang Yi, his face fierce. "You dare steal my strength?"
Fang Yi had taken advantage of the solar king's solar energy by wrapping it up in his storm, then absorbing that power.
"Let me help you out!" Li Feng, now clad in a suit of dragon armor, waved his left arm. A seal of light materialized around him. "[Arclight Dragon's Imprint]!"
A gigantic dragon's claw shot toward Fang Yi like a pillar of light. The dragon's claw moved so quickly that it reached Fang Yi within moments. The claw pushed up against Fang Yi and sped him up even further.
The solar king was outraged.
The ten suns behind him glowed with resplendent light. As he pushed his palms forward, all that light concentrated into a ray of destruction. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ NovᴇlFɪre .ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
Fang Yi's golden saw cut apart that ray all the way back to its source before striking the solar king's heavy plate armor.
The plate armor erupted. The explosion covered up the entire sky; even the hundred shining suns seemed to darken at that very moment.
Li Feng cried out in shock, "Reactive armor!"
Reactive armor was something commonly installed on tanks or battleships. As its name suggested, it would be able to respond to targeted attacks, commonly by installing inert explosives on standard armor. Such explosives wouldn't respond to minor explosions, but would explode upon coming into contact with any anti-tank or anti-battleship attacks to disrupt those attacks.
This wasn't the first time Li Feng had seen their like.
In some sense, Hong Xi's armor-type soulshard could also be classified as reactive armor, but this was the first time he had seen its like from the natives of the third realm.
Fang Yi's golden saw was an attack that could certainly have pierced through a superior king's defenses, but he had never expected to find one who was wearing such reactive armor.
Zhang Lie had only seen the rash, petty side of the solar king during the superior kings' meetings, not anticipating that he would behave far less cavalierly when it came to his own safety and going as far as to wear reactive armor.
The reactive explosion sent Fang Yi's attack off its intended course, causing it to miss the solar king.
The solar king glowed with golden light, and his sun-like eyes were burning brightly. The reactive armor that had exploded was slowly restoring itself with his energy.
"For mere ants to have pierced through my armor—it's been years. I'll honor you both with death."
The solar king manifested another sun in his palm, preparing to lob it straight at Fang Yi.
"No!" Li Feng reacted rapidly to provide him support. "[Light's Bulwark: Draconic Fist]!"
Li Feng clenched his fist. His right arm, clad with light, was covered with scales. The scales began to move as an arclight dragon materialized, howled, and rushed toward the solar king...
