Xia Zhi Feng slowly lowered his greatsword, meeting Bai Ye's gaze, and said indifferently, "That's not important. No matter how much there is, you can't take it away."
Bai Ye smiled faintly, "I hope you can still say the same thing after ten minutes."
As Bai Ye spoke, he extended a hand and waved it forward.
*Zzzt!*
A large amount of electricity appeared, surging forward!
Thunder Beast!
Thunder Bird!
Thunder Dragon!
Lightning condensed into three beasts, which simultaneously lunged towards Xia Zhi Feng, launching an attack.
Xia Zhi Feng showed no fear, slightly lowered his stance, and then…
"Speed Boost!"
"Strength Boost!"
"Stamina Boost!"
"Spirit Boost!"
"Lightning Resistance Boost!"
"Damage Immunity Boost!"
"Holy Attribute Boost!"
Xia Zhi Feng used a sword, but not in the style of the cultivation regions. His sword came from the magic region, and he excelled at magic…
Xia Zhi Feng was a…
Spellblade!
Magic circles, one after another, appeared beneath Xia Zhi Feng's feet. As the buffs continuously stacked, a glow emanated from Xia Zhi Feng, and then…
*Bang!*
Xia Zhi Feng stomped his foot, colliding with the Thunder Dragon. Utilizing the increased lightning resistance, he tanked a blow from the Thunder Dragon, then swung his greatsword.
A pure white crescent-shaped sword energy swept forward, striking the Thunder Bird's body and cleaving it in two.
The next instant, Xia Zhi Feng descended from the air, rolled, and adopted a thrusting stance, charging fiercely forward, piercing the oncoming Thunder Beast.
Then, Xia Zhi Feng's steps didn't falter as he continued his charge towards Bai Ye, his greatsword pointed directly at Bai Ye's face.
Just as the sword tip reached Bai Ye, suddenly…
Behind Bai Ye, scorching flames erupted!
Yu He · Phoenix Feather!
Crimson crystal feathers, like burning flames, appeared behind Bai Ye. Then, a pair of massive wings closed in front, shielding Bai Ye.
*Clang!*
Xia Zhi Feng struck the Yu He with his sword, producing a clear ringing sound. The greatsword was then repelled; the defense of the Yu He was stronger than Xia Zhi Feng had anticipated.
Xia Zhi Feng, being experienced, immediately leaped back after failing to break through, creating distance again.
But at this moment…
Before the wings on Bai Ye's back could fully unfurl, a vast expanse of light curtain appeared first.
Gate of Babylon!
A large golden ripple appeared on the golden light curtain, and then weapon after weapon materialized, beginning to shoot forward.
Xia Zhi Feng's eyes widened in surprise, then he thrust his greatsword forcefully into the ground.
"Earth Magic, Stone Wall Earth Rampart!"
Magic circles reappeared beneath Xia Zhi Feng's feet, and a wall of earth rose from the center of the magic circles.
However…
*Rumble, rumble, rumble!*
Weapons from the Gate of Babylon continuously struck the earth wall, causing it to shatter. Chunks of rubble fell everywhere.
Soon, the earth wall was completely destroyed.
However, it had managed to block the attack.
But it was only for an instant. Xia Zhi Feng's pupils constricted sharply.
Because the second wave of attacks from the Gate of Babylon had arrived.
The ripples on the light curtain had finished firing one round of weapons, but they showed no signs of stopping. More weapons materialized from the golden light curtain, and circles of golden ripples reappeared.
Countless weapons shot out again, heading towards Xia Zhi Feng.
Magic?
It was too late!
Xia Zhi Feng decisively swung his sword, parrying the incoming weapons one after another.
Although Xia Zhi Feng used a greatsword, his sword speed was incredibly fast!
With continuous slashes, Xia Zhi Feng was completely enveloped by rings of sword shadows, resembling a silver sphere.
But it wasn't a true sphere.
No matter how fast the sword speed, there were always openings and gaps.
*Thwack!*
A crimson longsword suddenly bypassed the defense, piercing Xia Zhi Feng's right leg and penetrating his thigh. Immediately after, a narrow blade struck Xia Zhi Feng's shoulder, piercing it as well.
"Ah!"
Xia Zhi Feng roared, suddenly producing a crimson gem.
The gem emitted a crimson glow, sweeping forward and repelling all incoming weapons.
Bai Ye smiled, "Why struggle in your dying moments?"
Xia Zhi Feng gritted his teeth, grabbed his leg and shoulder, pulled out his sword, and tossed it aside, saying, "You're not that impressive either. To kill me in ten minutes, I doubt it."
Bai Ye sighed and murmured, "Compared to your past life, you are far too weak."
As Bai Ye murmured, he pointed to the ground beneath them.
"Haven't you noticed…" Bai Ye tilted his head and looked at Xia Zhi Feng, "I haven't even moved."
*Zzzt!*
The moment Bai Ye spoke, Xia Zhi Feng's pupils contracted violently, and Bai Ye's figure suddenly vanished with his words.
A bolt of lightning forward!
Xia Zhi Feng's speed was fast, but it couldn't possibly be faster than lightning.
Almost instantly, Bai Ye appeared before Xia Zhi Feng and materialized.
The next moment, Bai Ye raised his hand, grabbed Xia Zhi Feng by the throat, and lifted him up.
*Boom!*
Bai Ye exerted force suddenly, smashing Xia Zhi Feng's body downwards. With a loud crash, a hole was created in the ice surface.
Xia Zhi Feng's eyes widened as he coughed up blood.
Bai Ye raised his left fist, crackling with electricity, and punched downwards.
*Boom!*
With a deafening roar, a large amount of ice shards flew up, forming an ice pillar.
But as the frost dispersed, Bai Ye saw the hole created by his fist, but Xia Zhi Feng's figure was nowhere to be seen.
Bai Ye slowly stood up and looked to the side.
Xia Zhi Feng, dragging his greatsword, gasped for breath, a look of fear on his face.
In that instant, Xia Zhi Feng felt like he was going to die. No, if not for his spatial teleportation ring, a magical item, Xia Zhi Feng was certain he would have died.
Bai Ye grinned. Masters always had their reasons. Spatial movement abilities, or items and equipment, weren't easily obtained.
But that was only for ordinary people.
Bai Ye looked at Xia Zhi Feng and said, "However, can you use it continuously?"
Bai Ye lightly tapped the ground with his foot, his figure flashing once more, turning into lightning and heading straight for Xia Zhi Feng.
Xia Zhi Feng leaped away quickly, but ordinary evasions were useless against Bai Ye, as it was impossible to be faster than Bai Ye's lightning.
And that spatial teleportation ring could only be used once every 90 seconds, allowing arbitrary jumps within a ten-meter range. It couldn't be used yet.
One and a half minutes was enough time to accomplish many things.
