Chapter 105: Springflame 9

The old man sighed and shook his head. The boy coming there and still maintained the procedure, made a good impression. What ever bargain the boy made to be there would never be fair to him. Never at all. Although he never liked people with a load of virtues in the first place. He, himself, was here as a guardian of this dominion due to his karmic sins. He remembered clearly how the four of them, the heavenly cuboid, had been found guilty by the heavenly palace's celestials, headed by the Jade Emperor. 

The four of them had been sent out to different dimensional places as their guardians for the adjudged equivalent duration of their sins. What a pity. They, that used to roam the heavenly plane in a moderate, not too chaotic, way, were now confined to dimensional prison. Though, they had free movement in the new dimensions, they were still incapacitated.

The old man flipped his hand.

"Take this."

Ju Feng caught the token and looked at in surprise.

"Show it to him when you get back."

"To who, senior?"

"You'll know when you get back. If you get back."

"Okay senior, I"ll do accordingly."

The old man disappeared as Ju Feng bowed. He looked at where the old man was standing for a moment before realizing he was now alone there. Quickly, he took the path that was indicated by the old man. The path led him to the mound where he found the soul ring and quickly put it inside his own spatial sac. He would be checking the content later. He took the same way back and when he reached the place where he first found himself inside the dimension, the dimensional space disappeared.

Two blade-lights headed his way, forcing him to dodge hurriedly. He realized that the battle was now raging hotter than before.

Heavens tears!

Ju Feng quickly surveyed the situation. The intensity of the battles unfolding before him, was of unassailed proportion. The amount of uncontrolled elemental energies in the air was truly frightening for a cultivator his level. On one hand, Shi Lingxin was in a raging showdown with the argonian leader, while on the other hand, the argonian and scaven army were in a fiery face-off with the gargantuan fire hydra. The few argonians and the scavens, who were out of that region, were fighting the human cavalry on this side of the location. 

It was a chaotic situation.

On the other side, the colossal fire hydra was having a field day with the argonians and scavens. The massive hydra's body was at the level of a total-grade worldly artifact, despite being a pure fire principal. Since they couldn't do much to its pure elemental body, the hydra was proving impossible for the army facing it, to defeat it. But the most dangerous thing of all, was its speed. The speed of its movement and attack, would rival that of a peak stage nascent soul.

At this stage, only two of the hydra's head had been destroyed. Though, this drastically reduced its power, the hydra was fighting with more burning rage. It was now looking more of the annihilation of the argonians and the scavens. Already, more than half of their army had been destroyed by the hydra. The sheer display of power by the hydra, testified to its terrifying might and significance.

That was no ordinary circle of Springflame guardian. Whatever it was or they were, that the hydra was guarding, would be of top values. The more reason for the humans to get their hands on the treasures.

The hydran battle was huge, but, it was the battle between the two contingents' leaders, that drew Ju Feng's attention. The quality of the attack moves being displayed was staggering.

Ju Feng continued to watch-on as the argonian blurred forward in a blue lightning shimmer. The green massive body armour on the argonian body, started to disintegrate and was cascading from its body as it moved with impossible lightning speed. He had covered the ground between them less than a heartbeat, thrusting forward, in a thousand in one move, a glaive that was shimmering, violently, with blue lightning bolts. 

Shi Lingxin shadowed himself back in a blinding speed, but the argonian followed, exceedingly fast for a Jindan level cultivator, his lightning glaive distorting and causing spatial ripples as they continued to exchange strikes. In a mirage of movement, they traded thousands of blade strokes as they broke, and moved again, and again.

Ju Feng could hardly follow the blurring speed of their movement. He couldn't believe what he was looking at. They were supposed to be Jindan cultivators, but from what he was seeing, they were not in a making of Jindan. How could that even be? Straining his eyes, he continued to follow their movement in a valiant attempt.

The argonian had made a named martial arts move.

"The Lightning-glide."

The cultivator beside Ju Feng said. Citing that the move was a world level devastating martial art.

Shi Lingxin was blocking with total comprehension of the deadly outcome if he lost focus and make mistakes. Their weapons were moving too fast for other cultivators to clearly see. His defensive robe, turned a glancing lightning thrust in a shower of shadow sparks. The glaive continued to cause giant spatial ripples in the air as it passed.

Suddenly, the argonian's move changed without disrupting his initial attacking move. Staying in the blue lightning blurr, there were massive lightning pulse and bolt webs, spiralling out of it. With every, thousand in one, thrust of the glaive, the spatial ripples were now burning the air and scorching a wide area of the ground. 

Shi Lingxin went briefly onto the attack with a giant shadow burst and an array of eclipsing shadow spears in an attempt to disrupt the move. His attack would have caused mortal injuries to any low level cultivator, but each of the spears was met and blocked. The sound of their blades came like a million shattering glasses.

The argonian pressed his glaring opportunity. Like a blurring ancient caster, he dipped and weaved his way through the shadow burst, cutting through the shadow spears with his pulsating glaive. He spun in a double circle before releasing his glaive. The glaive turned to a thousand raging blue-white lightning bolt that sped towards Shi Lingxin, covering the whole area and causing spatial rifts.
