Chapter 271: Heavenly Aspect Domain!
The members of the Spirit Artifact team were all dead, but many of their Spirit Materials remained intact, with colorful light clusters scattered across the battlefield wreckage. Xia Feng, with practiced ease, beckoned, and these Spirit Materials automatically sorted themselves in mid-air. It was no wonder they were senior commanders of the legion; each of them was incredibly wealthy, possessing all sorts of rare Spirit Materials. There were 68 grams of Boundless Stone, 5 Obsidian, 20 third-stage Spirit Treasure Fruits, 6 Spirit Infusion Fruits, as well as Xuexinghua, Blood Grass Crystal, Huayan Blood, Simukui, and other third and fourth-stage Spirit Materials.
Among them, Water attribute Spirit Materials were particularly numerous. Xia Feng casually scanned them and found two fourth-stage Spirit Materials that he needed. Moon麓Water and Tear of the Calamity Whale were added to his collection. Of course, he didn’t actually need fourth-stage Spirit Materials. Although he had obtained two fourth-stage Spirit Materials now, he was still a full thirteen Spirit Materials short. However, it wasn’t important. He only needed to pretend he had collected everything. Miss Mu would handle the matter of his promotion to the fourth-stage.
Mu Qingtong collected the Wood attribute fourth-stage Spirit Material, Simukui, which was the only one she was missing. She had originally planned to expend some Life Force Value to obtain Simukui, as it was considered a rare fourth-stage Spirit Material. Now that she had encountered it by chance, she was saved from wasting her Life Force.
After quickly collecting the spoils of war in two seconds, the two looked at each other and, without delay, rushed towards the mountaintop.
**Crater.**
A silver-armored knight with ash-grey wolf-tail hair stood on a towering rock. His greatsword was firmly planted in the stone crevice in front of him. He rested his hands on the sword hilt, his posture upright, his white eyes indifferently looking down at the scene not far away.
The tall, stout officer’s somewhat twisted features were emitting greyish qi, his small eyes tinged with brutal scarlet, and the veins on his forehead bulged. However, his steps remained steady as he continued forward under the terrifying Calamity Force, step by step, towards the Calamity Eater Hippogriff in the center. After 80 seconds of erosion, Pangxi Ze had completed the transformation from Human Race to Half-Calamity, but his reason had not yet collapsed, and he was steadily transforming further into a Calamity Eater. He showed no signs of losing his reason.
Yin Shi observed calmly without any emotion. The officer’s voluntary Calamity transformation violated the law, but as a Heaven’s Revelation Knight, he was not concerned with such matters. Although Heaven’s Revelation Knights possessed the highest law enforcement and immunity to killing, they were only to act and execute individuals or forces that were “detrimental to the Empire and damaging to the Empire’s peace.”
“Boom!”
“Rumble!”
Just then, two massive explosions, three seconds apart, came from below the mountain, causing the entire volcano to tremble slightly. Yin Shi looked down the mountain, his ash-grey eyes narrowing. Due to the great distance, he could not see the scene below clearly, but he could vaguely discern two small black dots rapidly approaching the mountain. These two were likely the invaders; the Spirit Artifact team had failed to stop them.
Yin Shi wasn’t particularly surprised. The only thing that puzzled him was that as the two black dots moved, the land around them turned black and white, as if a black and white canvas were constantly moving and advancing at high speed. The coverage area was about a circle with a diameter of 50 meters, likely some kind of domain.
“Walker Sir, those two guys are coming up!” a female commander said in a deep voice.
Hearing the report from her subordinate behind him, Pangxi Ze couldn’t help but frown. The Spirit Artifact team had been defeated? But they were only third-stage. Even with incredible abilities, how could they deal with the Spirit Artifact team? What happened?
“The Spirit Artifact team has been wiped out?” he asked doubtfully in a deep voice.
“The communication of Commander Wu Mo and the others has indeed been suddenly interrupted,” the female commander said with a serious expression. “Currently, the chance of them being dead is very high.”
Pangxi Ze’s frown deepened. He had to admit, these two invaders were somewhat unexpected. However, it wasn’t a major issue. While accelerating his Calamity transformation, he calmly ordered, “Form the array.”
“Yes.”
Ninety commanders formed nine commander formations, each capable of perfectly activating at least one B-grade Spirit Robe, fully protecting Pangxi Ze in the center. Soon, in about 20 seconds, the two invaders arrived at the edge of the mountaintop without obstruction.
Pangxi Ze sensed the movement, turned around, and in his blurred scarlet vision, saw two masked figures with fluttering black robes. As they reached the crater, Xia Feng quickly surveyed the surroundings: ninety commanders, the Wolf-tail Knight, the tall stout officer, and not far in front of the officer, a… humanoid mare?
“Hmm?” Xia Feng was startled. What was that? Why was there an ‘animal-girl’? While contemplating, he sensed the Fusion Device reaction again.
“!” He was shocked. That mare was the A-class Spirit Artifact he was looking for! It looked like a Spirit Artifact infected by an Artifact Calamity. Xia Feng had broadened his horizons, not expecting the shaped creatures born from the ability of ‘Heavenly Gift Great Calamity’ to be so diverse. However, to copy this mare now, he needed to get within 50 meters. His Enlightenment Domain had a radius of 50 meters, and he was currently 300 meters from the center of the crater. He needed to find a way to get closer first.
But as this thought arose, a terrifying Spirit Pressure suddenly spread from the center of the volcano, “Om–” The powerful Spirit Pressure made Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong’s knees buckle, and their movements became sluggish.
This was… True Martial Realm Spirit Pressure!
At the same time, with the release of the True Martial Spirit Pressure, a black Spirit Robe appeared on the surface of the officer’s body, and the Spirit Robe suddenly expanded and enlarged! A whistling sound that startled everyone present echoed, and a crimson spirit giant suddenly stood atop the mountaintop!
It had three eyes and four arms. Disordered blue-black light spirits formed wavy long hair that hung down its back. Its four long arms each held a trident. Its massive 20-meter-tall body seemed to support the heavens. Unlike the A-class Spirit Robe formation of Ye Li Beizhou earlier, which only had the upper body of Shiva’s Heavenly Aspect and was incomplete, Pangxi Ze’s released Shiva’s Heavenly Aspect had a complete body and possessed much more terrifying power.
A fine crack split open on the forehead of the crimson giant, and its bizarre eyes suddenly emitted a bloodthirsty light. Faint red ripples spread outwards, instantly encompassing all the land within a thousand meters! Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong reacted quickly, but it was useless. This was a domain, a domain that could not be dodved!
Xia Feng felt somewhat helpless. This guy was going all out right from the start? He wasn’t playing by the rules! He felt his vision darken, his sense of smell was sealed, and all his senses like hearing and touch disappeared. At the same time, his sense of direction became confused. Although he wanted to move forward, he involuntarily moved to the right.
Seeing this, he quickly stopped and dared not move again. This was likely the domain ability of Shiva’s Heavenly Aspect. Within the domain, everyone’s perception would be annihilated or randomly inverted. At the same time, the inanimate land within the area would produce a large number of spatial cracks. If one moved randomly, they would very likely be torn apart by the spatial cracks. It was equivalent to a silence domain, where everyone within the domain, including the user, was deprived of ‘vision’ in every sense. At the same time, they dared not move due to the unknown dangers lurking in the dark.
After releasing the domain, Pangxi Ze no longer paid attention to the surrounding situation and continued to accelerate his Calamity transformation. With one minute left, he would successfully complete the Calamity transformation! This domain would make it difficult even for True Martial experts to escape, more than enough to hold back those two annoying flies.
