Chapter Six Hundred and Forty Seven – Transformation (2/2)

Zuo Mo endured the heart-boring pain as he carefully controlled the Soul Setting Divine Light. He hid it in a corner and waited patiently for a chance. He realized that this moment was not the best time to act. The Sun crystal Seed and the Anti Dragon Claw were all accumulating power. The following clash would most likely be even more intense than before.

Zuo Mo’s mo physique was sturdy, but in front of something as vicious as the Anti Dragon Claw, it was not enough. Large amounts of blood and flesh disappeared like melting snow in front of the brutal energies. Leaving only the blood and flesh that could absorb the brutal energy.

This lead to a process in which Zuo Mo’s blood and flesh was completely transformed. The strongest flesh quickly expanded and thrived, the weakest rapidly shrank and died. They continued to struggle in the ocean of brutal energy and gradually stabilized.

No one noticed that a grey mo matrix had appeared inside Zuo Mo’s body and it was slowly growing, creeping across his body like ivy. The grey mo matrixes were completely different than the mo matrices he had before. Some dense scales appeared on the edges of the mo matrix. If one looked closely, they would find that these fine scales were extremely similar in color and shape to the scales of the Anti Dragon Claw, but much smaller.

The heavy brutal energy filled the space one zhang around Zuo Mo and seemed to be one with the Anti Dragon Claw.

But outside of this one zhang, the presence of the energy was completely absent. Not allowing anyone present to detect it.

Everyone’s gaze was deeply attracted to the battle between Marshal Yu and Wo Li.

———

“[Chain Together]!

Wo Li’s slender fingers pointed at Marshal Yu. Her cool gaze contained determination and fighting spirit. Under the sea of flowers, Luo Li was reflected. While his body was transparent, there was a smile at the corner of his mouth.

Almost at the same time, the two of them spoke.

Wo Li’s voice was cool and as hard as a sword, “Together!”

Luo Li’s voice was a murmur and gentle as water, “Together!”

Woosh, A thick chain suddenly flew out from under Wo Li’s feet like an ancient snake that shot at marshal Yu.

The air was filled with the sound of the chain clanking. The whole of the flower sea was trembling.

A strange presence that was hard to describe moved into the surroundings as the chain clanked.

This was … …

Zhu Ke’s expression was uncertain.

“This is … …” the middle-aged attendant exclaimed but she suddenly stopped as her face became completely bloodless.

Xia suddenly raised his head. His breathing was so heavy it could be heard clearly through the thick armor.

———

This was the presence of life and death!

Marshal Yu’s eyes were filled with shock and gravity. This snake-like metal chain was made from two opposing powers, life and death!

If he was not seeing it with his own eyes, he would not believe it!

Life and death, two diametrically opposed powers yet they were merged together so beautifully. It really was fantastical.

What method was this?

Who was that woman?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind but in a moment, his mind became clear again.

This chain that was woven from life and death was one of the highest powers that he had ever seen. It was so exquisite, so fantastical, it was hard to believe. As a marshal, even Marshal Yu sighed and praised it.

But such an exquisite and creative power still had weaknesses.

It was not condensed enough.

The other should have just comprehended it a short time ago. Even though they had understood to the crux of the ability, they lacked practice and the power was too weak. It was akin to a very powerful seedling. Maybe it would be powerful when it matured, but the seedling that had just germinated was thin and delicate.

Power came from methods, but also from an accumulation of experience.

Compared to this method of life and death that was undoubtedly a top skill, Marshal Yu did not have anything like that. But in terms of accumulation, the other was far lacking.

He had never thought that he would be forced to such a state by such a young woman.

Marshal Yu smiled, full of self-scorn. However, someone that could comprehend such a wondrous method was qualified to be his opponent!

The smile on his face gradually faded away. His expression became solemn and devout as he raised the Green Carp Tongue Sword.

The countless hardship and obstacles on his path of cultivation flashed passed his mind’s eye. His mind suddenly broadened!

A figure stood with a sword under a drizzle of rain.

I will let you see the true power of this marshal level’s [Rain Domain of No Return]!
