Master of the End Times

Chapter 852: He Will be Spared if He Stays Alive

Seeing Qin Feng here opened up his old wound.

He Tianxing acted swiftly when he saw that Qin Feng and Bai Li were planning to flee.

His enormous internal force instantly dispersed the incomplete spatial runes just released by Bai Li. Hence, Bai Li and Qin Feng could not escape in time.

Actually, they might have already been gone if there were only two of them. With Hu San and his igloo, Bai Li needed to cast more spatial runes than usual. This gave He Tianxing enough time to intercept them.

Qin Feng expanded his internal force shield to resist He Tianxing’s attack. It exhausted the internal force in his dantian rapidly.

Qin Feng might possess the same amount of internal force but its trait was vastly inferior to that of He Tianxing’s.

Besides, He Tianxing’s attack was imbued with his fury. Qin Feng had little chance in front of the S-tier’s wrath.

Pop!

Qin Feng’s internal force shield was crushed in an instant. He Tianxing’s internal force was not completely nullified and rolled on fiercely. Bai Li was unable to shield it in time.

Bam!

The force landed on Qin Feng and Bai Li and they both literally felt a punch in the gut. Their spines sustained enormous pressure.

Bai Li had evolved into the physique of a beast deity. She was rather durable and should be fine.

In contrast, Qin Feng no longer had the sacred armor with him. Though he had put on a god armor, it was designed only to withstand the ultimate assault of a B-tier beast emperor. It hardly had any protective effect against an S-tier ability.

As such, he basically took in the attack with his entire body.

“Pfft!” Qin Feng spitted a mouthful of blood.

“He Tianxing, that’s enough!” Long Yunyi yelled after he saw that Qin Feng was assaulted. He decided to intervene and protect Qin Feng.

Long Yunyi was the one who helped to finalize the transfer of the Sky Demon Sword into Long Yue’s hand. Benefited from the Magical Tesseract, Long Yue’s strength had improved drastically after he gained the new weapon. They owed Qin Feng a big favor.

Thus, they could not stand by and watch Qin Feng being bullied by He Tianxing.

“Hahaha! What do you mean by enough? I am just teaching the brat a little lesson. That’s none of your business.” He Tianxing was not done. He had used almost 50% power in the attack just now. It surprised him that Qin Feng actually survived that.

‘This brat has gotten stronger, again.’

The grudges between them could not be resolved without one side being killed. He Tianxing knew that he would need to do it now when Qin Feng’s true strength was still only in its infancy.

This time and place presented the most ideal opportunity.

He Tianxing struck again. Long Yunyi acted swiftly to intercept him.

Boom!

Something once again exploded in the air as the two giants clashed.

A mottled shadow occurred behind both He Tianxing and Long Yunyi.

The shadow looked like a half-transparent moon, only more colorful.

Everyone watching the fight held their breaths.

The two of them were serious about this. They had triggered the true aptitude of an S-tier many have only heard in legends—internal force nebula!

Rumor had it, after the internal force evolves into the scale of a sea, a user would need to compress them into a more solid state to break into S-tier. The compressed internal force would usually take a spherical form.

The pattern of the nebula was different from one S-tier ancient warrior to another. It epitomized their peaked ancient art.

It was bewildering that they had gone this far for a B-tier.

The nebula sphere on He Tianxing’s back had numerous scars that looked like sword marks. On the other hand, Long Yunyi’s nebula was more amorphous, with energy pulsating around it every now and then.

Based on the marks alone, ancient warriors seemed to have gained a deeper understanding of ancient arts simply by watching it.

It was an abstract concept that had a different definition in different users’ minds. It was an experience that could hardly translate into words.

One thing for sure, their battle was getting more intense.

Crack!

Another rift opened up in between them.

The battle between S-tiers definitely surpassed people’s imagination. Every single collision appeared to be earth-shattering. The rift opened up directly in between them, which forced both S-tiers to back off quickly in midair.

Meanwhile, Bai Li and Qin Feng, who were stranded on the ground, were now surrounded by the monster herd coming from the Voodoo Forest.

Worse still, with a deafening roar, a skeleton dragon carrying immense dark runes emerged from the newly opened rift.

Those people that had come out from the collapsed realm exclaimed in despair, yet again.

“Skeleton Wyvern from Spinesoul Land!” Another deadly place from their realm.

Two fatal zones were cracked open by the S-tiers successively. The Skeleton Wyvern that came out was already a B-tier beast king, who knew what else might appear next?

Long Yunyi said solemnly, “He Tianxing, I believe you are here to look for jewels. Are you going to destroy this realm? If so, then do it.”

He Tianxing glanced at Long Yunyi dismissively. Nevertheless, he felt a faint throbbing pain in his old wound. He, too, did not wish to continue the tricky battle.

But at the same time, he did not want to let Qin Feng go too.

“We can call a truce if you hand him over,” He Tianxing said.

Long Yue’s commanding voice interjected, “What a rapacious scum! My uncle is offering you a way out of this. Take it or leave it!”

He Tianxing chided back mockingly, “Then, let’s continue our fight.”

Ayshan watched them quietly and clearly enjoyed the conflict. At the same time, he had his eyes fixed on Long Yue and was ready to pounce anytime.

Beneath them, the Skeleton Wyvern was the latest to join in the siege around Qin Feng and Bai Li.

Qin Feng did not let Bai Li attempt another escape. He did not want to further provoke He Tianxing.

From others’ perspective, Qin Feng had already suffered considerable injuries and was currently being attacked by wave after wave of monsters. Even if He Tianxing did not do anything, he would still die eventually if the situation dragged on.

That was why He Tianxing had insisted on clinging on.

Ayshan smirked. What he said next was full of malicious intent, “Listen to me. Why don’t we stop fighting? We should just watch when that brat is going to die. There would be no conflict once he has been killed, right?” Ayshan laughed hysterically. Others’ sufferings were nothing more than a comedy to him.

He Tianxing agreed, “What do you say, Long elects? I like the idea. We should just back off and watch. You can’t help and I won’t interfere. If he survives, I will let this go.”

Long Yunyi contemplated. He Tianxing and Ayshan did not know what Qin Feng had done in the past. But he knew.

The reason why the Long family knew about the Blood River Realm and arrived so early was that they had been following Qin Feng’s activity closely.

This young man that suddenly burst into the scene had been involved in almost every significant event in this past year. He always came out victorious and got the biggest winning share every time.

Thus, the Long family was alerted when Qin Feng and the Fengli Organization traveled to this realm in a giant fleet.

With a leap of faith, Long Yue and Long Yunyi decided to follow Qin Feng to this Blood River Realm and try their luck.

Now, He Tianxing said that as long as Qin Feng could stay alive on the battlefield, he would let Qin Feng loose.

This was feasible. Long Yunyi had enormous confidence that Qin Feng was able to pull through this. The only concern was that Long Yunyi did not know how badly injured Qin Feng was.
