"I've treated both Zhuge Liang and my mother from this Demiruke's virus before, it is incredibly potent and a hassle to treat. So let's try our best not to be infected with it." Duan Li said with a serious expression.
The most troublesome nature of this virus here, was that if the injury was deep enough, the virus could enter directly into the meridian pathways!
When that happens, it would only be a matter of time before one turned into a lesser being - or those that they called as monsters. This was specially the case during the heat of battle, when one's spiritual Qi - it's food - was surged to its peak, that will accelerate their transmogrification into monsters even faster!
"You've treated it? Hah! Empty talk!" Cao Tengfei snorted disdainfully when he heard what Duan Li have just said.
As far as he knows, there was practically no viable method to treat someone once infected with their virus, and this young man claimed to be able to do it? Of course he would never believe it!
"The treatment he spoke about must've been temporary only at best.." Cao Tengfei thought inwardly.
After all, that was the most what people whom were infected with the virus could do.
But when the Emperor and Fei Jin Fang heard this, they were evidently a little bit surprised. After all, they've already come to know almost everything there was to know about Duan Li, including who his mother was.
Meng Yue, this was a woman that possessed perhaps the most talent that the Jiu Empire had ever seen before back then. Unfortunately, she was afflicted by this untreatable virus and had to live the rest of her remaining days in seclusion, bidding time for when she would eventually turned into a monster herself.
For Duan Li to say as such, and knowing who Duan Li were and the fate the other party was destined with, they glanced to each other and nodded.
They were confident!
Confident in the sense that, Duan Li had truly, really managed to treat her! This in turn, ease a great amount of pressure weighing on their minds to finally go all-out!
"Bloodline release!" both shouted at the same time.
BOOOOOMMM!!
The Emperor's forehead glowed brightly, before a peculiar shining tattoo appeared on it. This tattoo was a pair of wings - the insignia of the Royal family of the Jiu Empire, the Phoenix wings!
Then, his whole body started to radiate out some thick, viscous golden flames, the Phoenix aura!
Phoenix aura, or specifically, the flames surrounding the Emperor at this moment grants him two things; instant regeneration and incineration of any foreign substance!
What this means was that, there was almost no chance for the Demiruke's virus to infect the other party. If it gets close enough, it would be incinerated to ashes before it could even reach his body!
Perhaps the only other way to do it, was to use cold weapons such as a sword to create an injury and inject the virus after that. But with the instant regeneration ability, there was almost no chance of that happening as well.
Clank! Clank!
Fei Jin Fang's body made a series of clanking sounds within that thick armor of his. Although it could not be seen with the naked eyes right now, his flesh was actually molding together and transformed into that like steel!
But this was even stronger than steel!
This was Fei Jin Fang's unique bloodline ability, 'Titanium Serpent Silver Scale!'
With this ability activated, it would take an incredible amount of damage to even create a single cut on his bare flesh!
Not to mention, with his Supreme Knight's armor that was already difficult to penetrate with, along with the numerous runes to dampen all sorts of attacks, his defenses was practically impenetrable!
Fei Jin Fang's weight would also increase by a few tonnes, thus any attack made by him would weigh incredibly heavy as well! However, the tradeoff for this was that his speed became much slower, but this debuff was nullified with the runes on his armor and cloak, granting him speed!
"Damn it!" Cao Tengfei cursed out in his heart.
This was the reason why he wanted to escape when Duan Li were about to summon these two..
At their full battle prowess, it would give him an endless amount of trouble to deal with them at the same time!
However, Cao Tengfei couldn't help but to find this matter a little bit strange. Even if the full extent of their might could greatly protect them, in reality, it would still, only took a single damage to them to get infected by the virus!
Just where did they get such confidence?
Cao Tengfei frowned and casted a slight glance towards Duan Li.
It couldn't be that they trusted what this young man said before right?
"Hmph! To think that you two would even activate your bloodline powers here.. are you really hell bent for us to go at each other's neck today?!" Cao Tengfei bellowed out in anger.
He wasn't the least bit of afraid of them, not even when they were at their full peak right now. Granted, it would bring him more trouble like this, but he too, was a bona-fide Nascent Soul realm expert!
Throughout the 500 years that he had lived so far, he had committed many unimaginable atrocities in order to absorb negative energy of the highest purity.
He was chased by many experts, hunted by them from all corners of the Tian continent, but he still managed to persevere his life until today.
"Two Nascent Soul realm experts wanting to claim my life? Arrogant!!" his face suddenly became twisted.
Pshhh..!!
His skin then started to warp before more black tendrils crawled out from inside his body, slowly connecting with each other before finally turning his body all pitch black!
Next, a series of grotesque transformation happened; exoskeleton started to appear on all limbs of his body, with bones protruding out from each joints. Four horns jutted out from his temples and his back spine surfaced, exposing razor-like backbone!
Urgh!
All those who watched this transformation felt their stomach rumbling, feeling disgusted that they almost puked!
"What a twisted transformation.. no wonder the Dark Sect members seems to have no remorse in conducting any kinds of massacres.. it turns out that they had long fallen from grace.. that body.. they are no longer human!" the Emperor said as he narrowed his eyes, his instinct telling him that the form Cao Tengfei took right was was incredibly dangerous!
"This is a threat level far higher than a national threat.." Fei Jin Fang clenched his fist tight.
"Your majesty, allow me to be the vanguard!" he turned towards the Emperor and kneeled, after which, the latter nodded.
"Very well, I shall be the support and you become my sword! Receive my blessing!" the Emperor's forehead shone brightly.
Weengg!!
'Three Thousand Great Spells: Phoenix Rampage of Carnage!'
BOOOOMMMMMM!!
Fei Jin Fang's figure was lit ablaze by a ball of golden flame shot from the Emperor's forehead, but instead of burning the latter to ashes, this flame seemed to seep into his pores, as if forging his bones and metallic flesh into something even stronger!
Fei Jin Fang clenched his hand into a fist, "Such power.."
He felt that all his attributes, such as strength, defense and speed had rose considerably, at least by more than five times of his original capabilities with this buff spell!
"I can only maintain this spell until this tattoo mark on my forehead disappeared completely. You have to subdue him before that happens!" the Emperor said with an authoritative air to it.
Hearing this, Fei Jin Fang nodded solemnly while still kneeling, "Yes your majesty!"
BOOMM!!
His figure disappeared as a result of him moving near the speed of sound. With just a single dash, he had already closed the 10 meter distance between him and Cao Tengfei!
BAM!!
He sent a straight right punch forward to Cao Tengfei, of which the latter quickly dodged it.
BAM!!
Then a left hook which was blocked, and finally a right uppercut that hit cleanly on Cao Tengfei's chin.
BAM!!
All these take a while to explain, but it happened in less than a single breath!
By the end of Fei Jin Fang's 3 punch combo, a loud sonic boom exploded out.
BOOOOMMMM!!
Those who watched this marvel in awe as they became excited!
"So this is how top notch Nascent Soul realm expert fights!"
...
This fight would probably have the longest chapter count so far, the next chap (165 which is part 3) has 2K words of pure fighting scene alone lol!
After all, the title is there for a reason, by the end of it all, Cao Tengfei is destined to be wrecked by our MC..
Even the heavens couldn't held him down, what more a mere Dark Sect member.. huehuehue
Enjoy and thanks for reading!
