Chapter 926: Sin Shadow · Blazing Feathers
However, it was not a big deal. This trip was specifically to bring Xia Feng along. Later, I will find a time to absorb the Pale Dragon Spirit Blood from Xia Feng again to destroy the bloodline.
While contemplating, she looked up at the Tree of Sin on the ceiling.
“Where is Ni Yan? Why are only you resurrected?”
“Your Highness, please rest assured. Due to the special nature of Sin Shadow, Ni Yan’s resurrection will take a little longer, and there is no major issue.”
As he spoke, Zhuo Hua slowly walked towards Huang Zhaoyue, a cryptic smile on his face. “However, Your Highness, besides watching you personally consume the Abyssal Bone Flower, your subordinate actually has another mission this time.”
The black cat lay curled on Huang Zhaoyue’s lap. Huang Zhaoyue’s slender white hand gently stroked its soft fur, and she raised her dark, vertical beautiful eyes. “Oh? What mission?”
Zhuo Hua subconsciously glanced at the black cat but didn’t pay much attention to it. He smiled and raised his eyes. “The mission is as follows: if opportunities arise, I must severely injure Huang Zhaoyue to the point of unconsciousness, seal her into the Tree of Sin, and send her back to the Imperial Capital’s Central Court. This mission is subject to discretion and is not mandatory.”
“Your Highness, why don’t you tell your subordinate the truth? What is the degree of serious injury? If it reaches 5 points, then your subordinate will give up this mission, how about it?”
Zhuo Hua approached step by step, his gait leisurely, but his tone sounded like a serious negotiation.
Huang Zhaoyue’s gaze was faint.
Her degree of serious injury was indeed more than five points. Even with the rare spirit materials provided by the Goddess Hall for healing, her current strength was less than one-tenth of her peak.
If she were to fight Zhuo Hua head-on, there would be no possibility of winning.
“I remember, you are a double A Sacred Realm, right?”
“Hmm? Your Highness actually remembers the strength data of a small person like me. I am quite flattered.”
Zhuo Hua curved the corners of his lips into a mocking arc. “If it were in the past, with my double A strength, I would indeed not dare to confront Your Highness head-on. What a pity. Heh heh ~ Your Highness, tell me, if I were to go all out, how many minutes could you last at this moment?”
Huang Zhaoyue’s gaze remained calm and indifferent, watching the man in feathered robes approaching from a distance as if she sensed no crisis at all and had never taken the man in feathered robes seriously.
This caused the hidden malice and anger that Zhuo Hua had harbored for many years to subtly seep into his heart like poison, quietly rising.
That’s right, it was this look of blatant disregard for everything!
Zhuo Hua’s lips curved into a bizarre arc. It was nostalgic. When he first joined the Sin Legion and first saw Your Highness, it was the same arrogant gaze that looked down on any existence, which he remembered vividly.
Now, seeing her still leaning back in the metal chair, gently stroking the black cat, and not even preparing to escape with such a calm demeanor, Zhuo Hua found it ridiculous. Such pretense, Your Highness the Imperial Concubine!
“What, Your Highness, you know you have no way out and plan to give up struggling?”
Huang Zhaoyue couldn’t be bothered by the provocation of the man in feathered robes. She just asked softly in her heart, “Do you have a chance?”
“…I thought you had some trump card. So, you want me to take action.” The black cat replied mentally, a little speechless.
“I can see that you have already been promoted to the Venerable Second Realm. You could deal with a Venerable Fourth Realm Spirit Master when you were in the Venerable First Realm. Now that you are a double A Venerable, dealing with a fifth-level Sacred Realm should be no problem, right?”
Huang Zhaoyue pondered, “Zhuo Hua is a double A Sacred Realm. Even if you can challenge a Sacred Realm by crossing several levels, it will still be somewhat difficult to face him. But it doesn’t matter. I still have some strength reserves. With the two of us working together, defeating Zhuo Hua is not difficult.”
“…”
Listening to her coherent analysis, Xia Feng sighed, “No need. You just sit there and recover. Watch the show. Dealing with this little shrimp is enough for me alone.”
Huang Zhaoyue was slightly stunned and surprised.
To deal with Zhuo Hua alone?
Although she had long known that Xia Feng’s cultivation talent was terrifying, perhaps even another Huang Ye, wanting a double A Venerable to single-handedly fight a double A Sacred Realm seemed a bit too far-fetched.
Unless Xia Feng had some powerful trump card that she didn’t know about?
“Drip—drip—”
The man in feathered robes stepped up the layers of stairs, just a few steps away from reaching an equal footing with Huang Zhaoyue. He chuckled and snapped his fingers casually.
Instantly, the shadows under his feet twisted and rose like ghosts, forming a long-necked peacock with dark red and white feathers, its head held high with a fiery crown.
[Sin Shadow · Blazing Feathers]
“Your Highness, heh heh ~ Do you want me to give you ten seconds to escape?”
“Oh, right, this is the Eternal Flow Sea. Your Highness probably can’t escape even if you want to.”
In Xia Feng’s opinion, the man in feathered robes talked too much, and he seemed a bit mentally unstable.
He stretched out his cat claws and jumped off Huang Zhaoyue’s lap, landing lightly.
His orange vertical pupils stared at the approaching man in feathered robes. He also walked slowly with cat-like steps.
Zhuo Hua was startled and chuckled, “Although Your Highness possesses Sin Shadow, it is not within the Sin Tree network and lacks the assistance of Sin Power. The Sin Shadow cultivated is merely a facade. Could it be… Your Highness intends to use this useless beast to deal with your subordinate?”
As he spoke, the Blazing Feathers peacock in front of him proudly raised its neck and let out a clear cry. The beast’s pupils lit up with a cold killing intent, and its feathers suddenly ignited with extreme flames outlined by runes, forming a blood-red sea of fire that surged towards the black cat on the high steps!
Sin Shadow · Blazing Feathers possesses extreme speed and blazing flame abilities.
The temperature of the flames it creates approaches the surface of a star, and it also erodes the Spirit Base. Once contaminated by these blazing flames, the Spirit Base will be slowly poisoned, and the Spirit Pressure will become unstable. If the blazing flames are not removed promptly, there is a high probability that the Spirit Base will collapse, and cultivation will be lost!
In the ‘Sin Leaf System’ rating, this Sin Shadow is classified as ‘Rare II’, which is definitely a very powerful offensive Sin Shadow.
As for Huang Zhaoyue’s Sin Shadow · Extreme Abyss, since it has not been connected to the Great Sin Network and has not received any assistance or evolution from Sin Power, and has never displayed any abilities in the past, there are no official records.
However, two years ago, Zhuo Hua happened to witness Huang Zhaoyue display an offensive ability once. She could also release flames, but the power of those flames was more than one level weaker than Blazing Feathers.
Therefore, Zhuo Hua judged that Sin Shadow · Extreme Abyss would be rated ‘Common V’ at most, and could not be higher.
In the Sin Leaf System, Sin Shadows are classified as Scrap, Common, Rare, and Legendary.
Each major tier is further divided into five small tiers, increasing level by level.
For example, Common includes Common I, Common II, and Common V.
The Common tier is also the level possessed by most soldiers in the Great Sin Legion.
The Scrap and Rare tiers are very rare, while the Legendary tier has only a handful of them.
“Bang—!!!”
The sea of fire formed by the fiery white extreme flames instantly engulfed the black cat.
This kind of crushing by Sin Shadow level did not require Zhuo Hua to make a move; it could easily exterminate this beast!
Of course, unless the master’s Spirit Base collapses first, Sin Shadows will never die. At most, they will be temporarily unable to be summoned for a period of time.
“Buzz buzz—” The spatial control room was very large, and flames spread across the walls of the ship, boiling like a hellish sea of fire.
Zhuo Hua stepped onto the last step with a kind smile, his hands in his pockets.
