Chapter 614: Golden Skeletons

“Yu Guding!” Xia Fei cried; alas, Yu Guding was already collapsed in a pool of blood, unable to respond to his call. The latter’s back had been torn open by law force, and his organs were faintly visible as blood gushed out.

The two men in black squatted and searched Yu Guding’s body, while Yu Hua led the other three in keeping their pursuit of Xia Fei.

*Rumble!*

In front of him, the soil suddenly rose upward like a volcano, and Xia Fei was suddenly in the middle of a caldera. Someone had used the Law of Matter to change the landscape!

Following were several dozen sharp spatial fissures, slicing through the air as they made their way to Xia Fei!

*Whoosh~*

Xia Fei clenched his jaw, his body akin to a thin piece of paper as he pressed against the ground and slid forward one hundred meters, dodging the spatial fissures. After this, he lightly pressed the tips of his toes against the ground. Edgeless then erupted with blue flames as it gave Xia Fei a powerful boost. He planned to use the quantum engine to get over the walls which were surrounding him.

*Whoosh whoosh whoosh!*

Shadows came from overhead. Those men in black had already mounted the walls and sealed off the area. Xia Fei had no choice but to turn back around and return to the ground to avoid these attacks.

Yu Jiang’s plan to draw attention and give Xia Fei a chance to escape had failed!

It was clear that these Law Emperors had no plans of executing Xia Fei; instead, they wanted to force him into the center of the caldera, where Yu Hua was waiting for him.

Yu Hua raised his hand high, indicating that the attacks should cease.

The three Law Emperors proudly stood on the walls as they coldly stared down at Yu Hua and Xia Fei.

*Bang!*

Xia Fei dropped to one knee and panted for breath. He had already used all his strength to break out of this encirclement! Alas, escaping from a group of Law Emperors was truly difficult!

“I was the one who brought you from the Alliance to the Law Realm, and today, I will be the one to take you out!” Yu Hua sternly spoke.

He said these words both for Xia Fei and for his subordinates.

Xia Fei had bitten off half his ear and stolen his weapon, leaving Yu Hua feeling utterly humiliated. After being pressed so hard in front of his subordinates, Yu Hua needed to get back some of his dignity, and personally slaying Xia Fei was a good method in his eyes. Thus, he had ordered his men to surround Xia Fei and not kill him.

With a smile on his lips, Xia Fei stood up and tidied his messy hair. “What? You don’t want the other half of your ear, either?”

Xia Fei intentionally licked his lips as if he were remembering the taste. Everyone suddenly realized that there was a wicked air about Xia Fei, his expression truly like that of a man-eating fiend.

Yu Hua’s face turned ashen as he subconsciously touched his damaged ear.

Besides killing, Xia Fei also excelled in psychological attacks. Even in a one-on-one, Xia Fei had no chance at victory. Though he had just taken pain-numbing medicine, after that round of intense acceleration, his broken bones had once more begun to burn with pain.

Opportunity always existed in the middle of chaos. Yu Hua was a smart man who excelled in thinking and analysis. The only chance was to make him go mad, and to make this man go mad, Xia Fei needed to grab his wound and twist it!

This would produce two results. In his rage, Yu Hua would try to kill Xia Fei, and in addition, the former would expose his weaknesses, giving him a chance to pull the man down with him.

As for escaping alive, Xia Fei had stopped thinking about that. The chances were too minuscule, infinitesimally close to zero. Xia Fei had made up his mind to kill Yu Hua today, even if he had to use his teeth!

The Sky Curtain above him had a faint haze, so Xia Fei could not even see the stars that he loved to gaze at. This was the smokescreen Yu Hua had used. In truth, there was an illusion on the Sky Curtain so that those on the outside looking in would see something fake, and those inside looking out would also see something fake.

‘Could this really be the end?’ Xia Fei asked himself.

There was naturally no answer, but as he asked this question to himself, his eyes began to turn sharp and determined.

“Bringing you to the Law Realm was the biggest mistake I have ever made. Today, I will personally correct this error!” Yu Hua gritted his teeth and roared. “Not only will you die, you will have an extremely painful death, too!”

The normally graceful Yu Hua was now fuming with rage, his eyes filled with nothing but fire and Xia Fei’s image. While his words were quite poetic, everyone knew that Yu Hua was really just seeking to salvage his dignity.

Four Law Emperors stared hungrily at Xia Fei like gods looking at an ant.

Escape? The chances were minuscule!

As Yu Hua spoke, he extended his right arm, and a giant white hand moved to seize Xia Fei. This was another kind of power of the Law of Space, the power of space condensation!

If Xia Fei was caught by this hand, Yu Hua would activate his law power and cause space to constrict until Xia Fei was squeezed to death!

Xia Fei suddenly exploded in the air! He poured the Law of Primal Chaos into the Blood Crystal and attacked Yu Hua! With a dazzling light and a mournful howl akin to the wailing of ghosts, he revealed his surging killing power!

“Chain Blockade!”

The Blood Crystal’s slash was real, while the hurricane infused with the Law of Primal Chaos served as a feint.

Between the real and the feint, Xia Fei created a momentum equal to his foe’s!

Yu Hua smiled. “Using the Yu family’s techniques on me? I must hand it to you!

“Thousand Hand Buddha!”

The giant hand condensed from the Law of Space suddenly became thousands of hands. These hands wildly lashed out, swiftly and smoothly neutralizing Xia Fei’s hurricane infused with the power of the Law of Primal Chaos.

While Yu Hua appeared to have easily neutralized Xia Fei’s Chain Blockade, it actually had not been easy at all. The Law of Primal Chaos had an extremely bizarre power to it which required even more Law force and focus from Yu Hua to deal with. This was because the Law force from the Law of Primal Chaos would neutralize his power of spatial condensation.

This was in a situation where Yu Hua was far stronger than Xia Fei. If they had been on equal levels of strength, Yu Hua would have undoubtedly been defeated!

“Falling Leaves of Autumn’s Demise!”

Xia Fei still did not give up. He thrust a palm, unleashing his pure Law of Primal Chaos technique!

*Rumble!*

A white light surged forward, like a silver leaf, piercing through the giant hand Yu Hua had created!

*Plush!*

The condensing of the Law of Space was really the compression of space, making space of higher density and quality. However, as Xia Fei’s palm approached, the condensed power instantly dissipated! It fell into chaos! Like a deflating balloon, the giant hand collapsed.

Xia Fei jumped to the side and stood across from Yu Hua, but he did not use this chance to attack.

This was very unusual. He would need to advance another one hundred meters to get Yu Hua into the attack range of Peacock Blue. The combination of Peacock Blue, the cruel Blood Crystal, the Law of Primal Chaos, and Furball’s power, he would undoubtedly have been able to deal Yu Hua a heavy blow!

Why had Xia Fei chosen to withdraw after dispersing Yu Hua’s law condensation energy then?

“Eh? What sort of attack was this? I don’t get it. I really don’t.” One of Yu Hua’s subordinates shook his head in confusion. Suddenly, he felt some weight on his shoulder, and when he turned to look, he saw that it was an arm!

An arm without flesh! A skeletal arm!

This arm was golden!

Fear and alarm! The eyes of this subordinate almost popped out of their sockets!

It was no wonder Xia Fei had chosen to back away. It was because there had been a strange and disconcerting development!

Twelve golden skeletons had appeared on the battlefields of Yu Jiang and Xia Fei!

*Rumble!*

There was a boom, and then half an arm, pitch-black and dripping with blood, dropped at Yu Hua’s feet!

In shock, Yu Hua raised his head and discovered that his subordinates at the ring of the caldera were locked in a bitter battle!

Seven golden skeletons had surrounded the three Great Law Emperors, and one of them had lost an arm in his negligence!

These golden skeletons did not just move quickly but could also use law powers!

Those techniques were clearly those of the Yu family!

The balance of battle tipped so quickly to the point of absurdity!

Heaven’s Sundering! Heaven’s Sundering! Heaven’s Sundering!

The golden skeletons attacked together, causing the world itself to change color!

*Rumble!*

One of Yu Hua’s subordinates saw that the situation was dire and took to the skies. He flew up as a complete human, but he came back down as a shattered corpse!

The seven golden skeletons had simultaneously used the classic martial technique of the Yu Clan, the Heaven’s Sundering, tearing him to shreds and pulverizing the remains!

“What’s going on?!” Yu Hua covered his head with a hand and shouted.

“I have no idea what’s going on! I just know that you’re dead!”

Xia Fei had also been terrified by the sight of these golden skeletons. This was why he had immediately drawn back to see how the situation developed.

When he saw these inhuman existences attacking Yu Hua’s men, he immediately rejoiced!

Xia Fei and Yu Hua had no idea that when these golden skeletons still lived, they had been warriors of the Yu family, all possessing peak Law Emperor cultivation!

Before their lanterns had run completely dry, their last bits of vitality had been preserved with the Dragon Sealing Mark, and they had been buried in an independent space, existing solely for a day like this when the Yu family faced disaster. At that time, these sealed beings would be released to save the clan.

This was the Yu Clan’s secret!

Divine Beast Green Dawn had been determined to self-detonate precisely because he knew this secret. First, he had wanted to create a chance for Yu Jiang and Xia Fei to escape. Second, even if he could not succeed, the intense explosion would blow open that stronghold in the depths of the ancestral shrine and release the golden skeletons!

Earlier, after Yu Jiang used the Dragon Sealing Mark, the Shatter Wu warriors had forcefully suppressed the skeletons.

Green Dawn’s self-detonation had broken this suppression!

He had used physical means to blow open Snake Isle! Creating a massive crater with a depth of fifty kilometers!

The golden skeletons broke free!

Truly, Divine Beasts possessed intelligence on par with humans!

Green Dawn, who had lived for thousands of years, was a crafty character. With his grandiose self-detonation, he had lit the beacon of the final counterattack!

Let alone Yu Hua, even Yu Jiang had been deceived!

Of course, if Yu Jiang had known of Green Dawn’s plans, he might not have used the Dragon Sealing Mark on himself, much less given the Nine Night Plum to Xia Fei.

The will of the heavens was unfathomable. To protect his master, Green Dawn had unwittingly helped Xia Fei.

Disconcerted by this sudden shift, Yu Hua backed away, but Xia Fei crazily charged forward!

Two giant leaves appeared on his right arm, flailing like the arms of an octopus, exhibiting the savagery of an Immemorial Mystical Armament!

In Xia Fei’s left hand was the striking Blood Crystal, seemingly ready to suck away all life in the world!
