Chapitre 27: Tempest Dragon of Slaughter
Booooooooooooom! Booooooooooooom!
Meng Fu and Bai Feng landed before the crowd. Their eyes were burning with fury, everyone felt this and became wary, and as they all took a step back, away from the two elders.
Suddenly, Zhu Hongwu reacted in a flash. A bright golden sword appeared out of thin air and was sent to fend off an attack from Bai Feng.
The golden sword was met by the sharp knife of Bai Feng's long metal whip. And as it clashed in the air, golden sparks flew like butterflies that seem to light the pit bright.
Bai Feng walk out in fury, "Elder Zhu, I have great respect towards you! But you must be completely insane keeping that bastard alive after what he had done! You have even sealed the place against me and Elder Meng!"
Behind him, an older Meng Fu was calm and collected compared to Bai Feng. But he too had a hint of furious glare towards Zhu Hongwu. He wanted to hear Zhu Hongwu's reason. "Brother Bai, make sure to not go overboard on your actions." Meng Fu's words seem to acknowledge Bai Feng's rage towards Zhu Hongwu, as he had a glint of smile in his face. He too wanted to punch Zhu Hongwu for his actions.
"Haha Elder Meng, I will make sure Elder Zhu can still talk after this." Although Bai Feng had a weaker cultivation compared to Zhu Hongwu, his martial prowess could be taken as the peek among the people within this ensemble. Bai Feng had prided himself with his Body Cultivation which could stand on equal grounds against Core Formation Cultivators.
Bai Feng lashes out his long metal whip, and as he struck the ground with his fury; He displayed an imposing image of a divine slayer. All the disciples felt terror and awe towards this Esteemed Elder.
"That's our great Uncle Master Bai Feng!" the crowd from the Starfall Sect celebrated in amazement. This display of power from Bai Feng hyped them up and had boosted their confidence as they now stood equally with their peers.
Bai Feng's long metal whip lashes out towards Zhu Hongwu; his attacks seem to display a blood red raging dragon that weaves with powerful strength and ferocity.
But every time Bai Feng's whip attacked, Zhu Hongwu countered it with finesse. Around him were five floating bright golden swords, and every time Bai Feng attacked, Zhu Hongwu would send these swords to clash with it.
Sparkling butterflies seem to fly around the dark and eerie pit, the clashing of weapons was a sight to behold. Bai Feng attacked aggressively, and on the other side, Zhu Hongwu gestured with his sword hands as he manipulated his floating golden swords precisely in defense.
All this time, Zhu Hongwu took the defensive stance and never attacked Bai Feng. This infuriated Bai Feng. He knew how powerful Zhu Hongwu was, he saw him in action against the foreign lifeform. And even though they were both combat martial masters, he clearly acknowledges Zhu Hongwu's superiority with his sword arts by a tiny bit, if it came face to face against his. And this exchange seems to show just how great their difference was.
"Elder Zhu, why do you insist on protecting that bastard boy?" Meng Fu's voice sounded out casually.
Zhu Hongwu heard him, as he casually responded. "Neebo has become my Sect's junior apprentice. And it is my Sect's responsibility to protect his life against anything that wants to harm him."
This reply caused uproar. Who was Neebo? Why would Elder Zhu Hongwu risk his life to protect him? Such questions raced through the curious minds of the Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect disciples. Namgoong Yoh' eye caught sight of Neebo, He was clearly younger than him, and he was clearly weaker, far weaker than him.
"Did Uncle Master Zhu finally accepted a disciple?" one of the disciple's from the Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect whispered.
Kira Musashi also caught sight of Neebo, "I don't think so, it's very unlikely that Uncle Master would accept such a weak kid. There must be a reason for Uncle Master to be protecting him with his life on the line."
The rest of the Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect disciples felt that what their Senior Brother had said was reasonable. They knew that their Uncle Master had never accepted any disciples for he was busy with honing and cultivating his skills. So it was highly likely that their Uncle Master had a very good reason for doing this.
Kira Musashi didn't felt threatened by Neebo. He had longed for the tutelage of Zhu Hongwu and become his first and only disciple, but he was rejected painfully. Thus, he was sure that his Uncle Master wouldn't take such a weak person. Kira Musashi commanded his group and moved behind Zhu Hongwu, as they too made an effort of supporting their Uncle Master at protecting the kid Neebo.
Even though the disciples from the Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect were very competitive, they too held noble bearings and steadfast traits. They were not a group of disciples to be underestimated with, thus they were ready to face any danger with their heads held high. Namgoong Yoh appeared beside Neebo as he scrutinizes Neebo, He had his hands in his waist as he comically had a very strong interest towards Neebo.
"You're Neebo? Hmmmmmm weak! But don't fret; we will protect you with our lives as well!" Namgoong Yoh laughed boisterously as he patted Neebo's shoulder as he tried his best to setup his superiority. His confidence facing the rest of the crowd scared Neebo. But deep inside, Neebo was confident that compared to Grecian, this crowd was weaker.
"Thank you senior brother, your noble presence and valiant efforts has truly kept my racing heart at ease! Clearly you are the one of a kind hero of our generation!" Neebo sugarcoated his words as he flattered Namgoong Yoh.
The flattery was very effective, as Namgoong Yoh blushed in awkwardness. He was very flattered by Neebo's words, and it raised his confidence to a higher level. "Haha junior brother Neebo, don't worry, for I am here to protect you together with our Uncle Master Zhu! Our Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect cannot be underestimated!" Namgoong Yoh replied boisterously.
"Thank you, most noble senior brother Yoh!" Neebo caught the name of Namgoong Yoh from Zhu Hongwu's words. As such, he had familiarized himself with the people from the Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect.
"Good, haha that's how a junior brother should act! I'm just doing my part as your senior. It's nothing out of the ordinary." Namgoong Yoh was satisfied by Neebo's flattery and stood guard beside him.
On the other side, Meng Fu was irked by Zhu Hongwu's words. What could be the reason for Zhu Hongwu to accept Neebo as an apprentice disciple of his Sect? And although Neebo is just an apprentice disciple, it's not enough reason for him to be protecting Neebo with his life on the line.
Meng Fu wanted an explanation badly, "Brother Bai, should I send my Sect's disciples in your place? Or are you going to keep disappointing the Starfall Sect with your performance?"
Meng Fu's words clearly insulted Bai Feng. The disciples from the Starfall Sect rage on the side, as they couldn't accept those words from Meng Fu, but they cannot respond against it; Meng Fu was a highly Esteemed Elder. Not just within the Divine Void Sect, but all throughout the Blue Pearl World. The renowned Formation Grandmaster of the Divine Void Sect, Meng Fu. His name was indisputably among the greatest Cultivators of this era. And his legacy would be glorified for a thousand years to come.
All four youth from the Divine Void Sect smiled subtly at their senior's words. This shows that Meng Fu places them in higher regard than Bai Feng.
Bai Feng was indeed insulted by Meng Fu's words, but he couldn't respond against it. He was powerless against Meng Fu. But Bai Feng thought that against Zhu Hongwu, he had a chance.
Bai Feng exploded with his cultivation, his long metal whip transformed into that of a red dragon that was surrounded by a bloody tornado. This was his Sect's one of the most esteemed Divine Art, the Tempest Dragon of Slaughter.
The wind inside the pit became turbulent as Bai Feng exploded with his powers.
Standing calmly before this powerful display, Zhu Hongwu looked into the Divine Art seemingly reading through it and locating its weaknesses. Although Zhu Hongwu was laid back, he was very competitive as much as his Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect people. And moments like these were a rarity, to be facing against a powerful Divine Art of one of the Three Great Sects of the world, Zhu Hongwu was excited.
Deep inside Neebo, Grecian mocked the conflict before them. "You humans are truly stupid. To be fighting among yourselves and to think that you would be fighting near the spatial crack, you know that these energies can be detected from the other side do you? Haven't you guys learned from back then? I guess you wanted to badly attract my spider armada inside this weak world of yours. You have truly exceeded my low expectations. Now it is at an all-time low." Grecian's eerie laughter followed.
Neebo felt flabbergasted by Grecian's words. It was the truth, these humans are truly stupid. Last time, it was him and Archilles whom fought beside this spatial crack and attracted a very powerful Grecian. If these two elder's battle it out, for sure, an even far stronger foreign lifeform would notice. Why would they want to attract the foreign lifeforms from Grecian's world? Did they really not think it through?
'I'm ashamed.' Neebo felt downhearted as he spoke in his mind. Grecian's laughter resounded louder after that.
The tension was at its highest, as Bai Feng rages with his powerful Divine Art against Zhu Hongwu who was standing calmly. Bai Feng insisted, "Elder Zhu, do you really want this enmity? Does the Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect really think they could take both my Starfall Sect and Elder Meng's Divine Void Sect? Release that boy and let me skin him!"
"If you think you have what it takes, then you are free to do so. I'm just doing my job as an elder of my Sect." Zhu Hongwu answered calmly, seemingly unfazed by Bai Feng's Divine Art. His words carried confidence and authority.
"Then so be it!" Bai Feng took action as he lashes out into where Zhu Hongwu was, and the Tempest Dragon of Slaughter Divine Art of Bai Feng wreaked havoc as along the way.
Zhu Hongwu grabs his greatsword as he slammed it on the ground, bright golden seal spread out from Zhu Hongwu's greatsword. The seal seemingly devoured Zhu Hongwu's group and the spatial crack. This was Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect's, Celestial Sword Seal.
Everyone was amazed at the appearance of the seal; it was undoubtedly the most powerful seal of the Blue Pearl World. To be able to witness its full glory was clearly a fortunate encounter for everyone.
As the Tempest Dragon of Slaughter slammed into the Celestial Sword Seal, dust flew turbulent once again, covering the entire place with it. Inside the unsettled dust, Bai Feng continued to attack the Celestial Sword Seal with everything he got. He knew how powerful this seal was, even foreign lifeforms were made ineffective against it, so he needed to give everything he have got.
The Divine Art didn't slow down a bit; Bai Feng displayed his full martial prowess amidst the fervent awe from his Sect's disciples along with the rest of the crowd. Bai Feng truly deserves his authority in his Sect.
Inside the Celestial Sword Seal, Zhu Hongwu and the rest were safe and sound. They could clearly see the magnificence and ferocity in Bai Feng's attacks. Namgoong Yoh even felt doubtful fighting against Bai Feng; they were both at the same level. But clearly, Bai Feng was much more experienced and much more powerful than him.
Beside him, Neebo felt shocked to what he was seeing. He knew Bai Feng was powerful, but he didn't expect him to be this powerful.
Kira Musashi on the other hand was unfazed; he had seen a lot of battles already. And his title as the Heavenly Sword Mountain Sect's Senior Disciple was not just for display, he had been taught by the Sect's most powerful elders. "Uncle Master Zhu hasn't made his move yet, and he is already expending much of his energy. Tsk" Kira Musashi spoke with a hint of mockery and disappointment.
…
The Nefarious Sanctuary rumbled, the cracks along its walls grew larger. The rumbling caused a massive fright within the Hazel Grove kingdom. They were prohibited to come close, but even though they were a distance away, they could still feel the rumblings.
At this moment, three powerful auras appeared; as one of them shouted, "Seize this!"
