Chapter 850 - Reinforcement from the Long Family (1/2)

The form of an ability was fixed once the runes were arranged in a certain way. It could not be altered easily, or else the casted ability would collapse instantly.

But this rule did not apply to an S-tier. They had learned enough to master the way of rearranging the runes while maintaining the ability’s power.

The sudden explosion would catch anyone by surprise.

Ayshan was even crazier than Z. No matter what, Z would spare Qin Feng’s life because he wanted Qin Feng as his experimental subject. That was why Qin Feng could always get away from Z unscathed.

In contrast, Ayshan only wanted Qin Feng dead. Despite his status as a prestigious S-tier, Ayshan was not shy from using such an unethical tactic.

It was a killing blow.

Qin Feng actually admired Ayshan’s unsympathetic approach. He suffered greatly sustaining the explosion head-on.

The moment the runes exploded, Qin Feng could vividly feel that his consciousness was starkly impacted too. The explosion seemed to have generated an echo in his conscious realm and shook the starglobe.

In that instant, Qin Feng almost fainted.

Such an attack would usually blow a normal ability user’s head apart the moment it hit.

But Qin Feng withstood it. The explosive shockwave brushed past three diamond starglobes and two elemental sacred stones before finally landing on Qin Feng’s dark planet. It had lost most of its momentum then and was unable to crush Qin Feng’s conscious realm.

Qin Feng survived the assault thanks to his mammoth conscious power. Even so, a lot of runes in his realms were blown apart in the process and lost from Qin Feng’s diamond starglobe for good. He would need to remaster them if he wished to have the runes back.

Abilities relied on the arrangement of its corresponding rune type. Without the rune, one could not execute the ability even if he or she knew how to cast it.

This was only the damage in places that people could not see.

On the outside, the onlookers witnessed how the sudden explosion of the fallen fire had blasted the earth shield into ashes. As the blast wave was about to reach Qin Feng and Bai Li under it, Bai Li reflexively dragged the Chiliad Orb in her hand and ripped apart a rift on top of them.

All incoming impact, as well as the fire, was absorbed into the rift. Qin Feng, Bai Li, and the igloo did not suffer any physical damage.

Bai Li pulled a long face. Rage burned brightly through her silver iris. She was obviously infuriated because Qin Feng was hurt.

“Qin Feng, will I be in trouble if I kill him?” Bai Li asked.

Ever since Bai Li had evolved into a beast deity, her strength was comparable to that of an S-tier. Then again, it did not mean that she would definitely win the battle against one.

But, at the very least, she stood a chance.

Of course, every S-tier currently in the Human Alliance was an immeasurable asset. Killing one would have immense consequences.

This Ayshan acted mental. In Bai Li’s world view, Hu San was a good type of S-tier, while Ayshan was naturally a contrasting presence—a villain, an enemy. Nobody would blame her for exterminating such a scum.

Bai Li was ready to move. Silver fur began to grow near the tip of her ears. Her fang became more apparent, while the fingers of her hands were getting sharper. Under her oversize gown, seven tails grew gradually as her aura quickly escalated.

She would need to use her deadliest form against an S-tier.

“No! Wait!” Qin Feng held Bai Li back. The buzz shrouding his mind had toned down considerably now. He did not want Bai Li to fight, especially in her true form. Though many might have figured Bai Li’s identity as a contracted beast, they would view her differently once her beast form was unveiled.
