Chapter 1238: Emulated a Few Techniques"[Light's Bulwark: Earthbreak]!"
Li Feng's fists, glowing with light, were packed with huge quantities of light-attuned genetic energy. They smashed into the ground in a massive explosion. All that energy headed in a certain direction.
As the ground cracked, white light zigzagged toward Zhang Lie. Zhang Lie's feet stomped on the ground, reinforcing it against Li Feng's technique. The white light exploded as though a volcano had erupted, spraying out light in the vicinity of Zhang Lie. Even so, Zhang Lie was wholly unhurt.
Li Feng seemed to have predicted this outcome. He passed through the white light and made use of its optical properties to shroud himself as he attacked.
However, without seeing just how Zhang Lie had struck, he was sent flying through the air. He barely stabilized himself in time.
Li Feng turned to Zhang Lie. "I've emulated one of your techniques with my own, Captain, and I'd like to get your opinion of it."
"Very well," Zhang Lie replied.This chapter was originally shared via /n/o//vvel/b/in.
"[Light's Bulwark: Heavenfall]!" A silvery-white glow, blinding in its intensity, exploded from Li Feng's body. The shockwaves that emanated from his body were so intense as to distort space. They roared through the air like thundering dragons, turning the sky white.
Zhang Lie approved of Li Feng's efforts. The technique was based on one of his, but Li Feng had converted it into something completely his own.
"You've been paying careful attention to my advice from the second realm, haven't you?"
"Of course, Captain. I'd like for you to witness the results of my labor today."
As Li Feng punched forward, light-attuned genetic energy transformed into a raging flood. Thick, concentrated energy, like roaring dragons and galloping steeds, like sharp blades piercing heaven and earth, fell from the sky.
"Let's see it, then!"
Pale blue genetic energy rippled about Zhang Lie's arms. He flicked his wrists, causing a frightening aura to descend on the world. The sky began to darken, and a fish the size of a whale materialized in the air.
"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!"
A howling gale swept over the two combatants. As more and more genetic energy gathered around Zhang Lie's arms, it looked as though he were at the heart of a whirlpool.
Zhang Lie had used the technique on which Li Feng's [Light's Bulwark: Heavenfall] was based—[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar].
A huge wave soared into the air. As Zhang Lie punched forward, the fish slammed its huge tail on the ground and sent a torrent of water surging.
Ripples of energy spread out from Zhang Lie, warping the space around him. The towering waves looked like enraged black dragons, flooding the hall.
The white light and pale blue waves smashed into each other, causing the barriers Zhu had erected to crack.
A huge rumble shook the heavens, and the world quaked.
As the waves burst apart, the air filled with echoes of Zhang Lie's signature genetic energy, shattering space and swallowing up all life in its vicinity. The white light ran rampant; the world was already on the verge of breaking apart after just a few minutes of fighting.
Pale blue waves, propelled by the might of a boundless ocean; bright white light, sharp as swords—the two different types of energy wrecked each other and the environment around them.
Zhu clutched her head. "As expected..."
The members of Team Zenith all erected their barriers.
In the clash between the two energies, Li Feng lost out. He was forced to stumble back.
Li Feng chuckled wryly. "I'm still far weaker than you are, Captain."
Zhang Lie praised him. "You've improved tremendously."
Li Feng gave him another wry smile. "Don't make fun of me, Captain."
"I'm being serious."
"But you haven't been fighting us seriously, have you?"
"I don't want to heavily injure you," Zhang Lie replied.
"This might be the truth, but it's still painful to hear. I think I might even rather be heavily injured by your full might."
"You've emulated a few other techniques of mine, haven't you?"
Li Feng nodded. "Yes, Captain."
"Demonstrate them all. I'll consider them seriously."
"Then, be careful, Captain!"
Li Feng's aura grew to its peak. Wrapped up in shining light, an arclight dragon emerged from his body and circled upwards.
"[Light's Bulwark: Thousand Dragons Soaring]!"
Li Feng shouted. As he punched upward into the sky, all his genetic energy condensed in his fists, launching dozens of dragons into the sky.
As Li Feng yelled out, dragons of light materialized and circled his arms. As he punched upward into the sky, all his genetic energy condensed in his fists, launching dozens of dragons into the sky.
The dragons' cries sounded like peals of thunder as they swooped through the air, each dragon so large it could swallow a blazing sun whole.
Thousands of arclight dragons criss-crossed in mid-air before swooping down like meteors.
"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade]!"
The thousands of arclight dragons were no match in size to the huge black dragon Zhang Lie had summoned. Compared to it, the arclight dragons were nothing more than bugs. The black dragon opened its maw wide and bit down on the arclight horde. Space cracked where its teeth intersected, leaving void behind.
The black dragon launched itself toward Li Feng, who defended himself with a huge greatsword, illuminating the sky with white light.
As he swung the sword, a heavy slash bisected the black dragon.
A wave of annihilation exploded around the dragon. Pitch-black energy swallowed up everything in the vicinity like a storm at sea. However, Li Feng was prepared. He knew of this technique, and he had no intention of clashing head-on with it. He transformed into an illusory arclight dragon and disappeared from the spot.
Zhang Lie, who had been standing far away just moments ago, suddenly appeared behind him and patted his shoulder.
"How do you feel?"
Li Feng was so shaken by the sudden contact that he almost leapt up. He wiped at the sweat on his forehead and gave Zhang Lie a thumbs up. "You truly are incredible, Captain."
He had thought himself fast, but Zhang Lie was even faster. If Zhang Lie had been an enemy and had kicked him into the storm of annihilation... Sᴇaʀᴄh the ɴøvᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
Zhang Lie asked, "Did you intuit something?"
Li Feng chuckled. "I suppose we shall have to continue."
"Naturally," Zhang Lie replied. "If you haven't learned anything, of course we have to continue."
"In that case, Captain, take this!"
Knowing that struggle would be futile, Li Feng struck once again.
"[Birth of the Holy Dragon]!"
Li Feng leapt high into the air and landed on the dragon's head, his sword gleaming brightly as though it had been dipped in liquid light. As he raised the sword to the skies, it glowed and expanded, morphing into a huge blade of light.
The blade parted the clouds and lit up the entire patch of void. At that very moment, Li Feng looked like a god descending from the heavens.
