102: Divine Punishment of Light - Sword of Law

However, such an injury was trivial to the Sky-Burning Sparrow, though it only served to further incense it.

At this moment, its eyes turned even more crimson, and the flames surrounding its body surged once again.

“Rumble—!”

In the next instant, the entire sky transformed into countless crimson dark clouds, and innumerable fire meteors rained down from the heavens like a doomsday cataclysm.

Wei Guangming's expression also became much more serious.

This was one of the Sky-Burning Sparrow's powerful skills—Solar Flare Storm!

The power it erupted with was nearly approaching that of a Mid-Stage Demigod powerhouse.

According to Dawn City's previous deductions regarding the Sky-Burning Sparrow, its own Divinity of the "God of the Sun" was already close to 90%.

“Damn, this guy's Divinity is completely suppressing mine.”

Inside the aircraft, Jin Yan's face was pale.

As a fellow Awakened One of the "God of the Sun," the divine aura surrounding the Sky-Burning Sparrow made Jin Yan feel somewhat breathless.

This was not just a gap in strength, but a hierarchical division that reached deep into his bones.

It was like how a tiger belongs at the top of the food chain in reality, and a sheep facing a tiger cannot even muster the thought of resistance.

“Resolve this quickly, even if you just drive it away; I sense the aura of an acquaintance.”

At that moment, the voice of the mysterious person echoed in Wei Guangming's mind.

Wei Guangming knew he could not let this drag on any longer.

Right then, he directly pressed his right hand to his chest: “Apostle of Light!”

Instantly, dense energy erupted from within Wei Guangming's body, Divinity gushed forth, and the Law of Light surged out.

“Boom—!”

In a flash, Wei Guangming's figure abruptly rose to dozens of meters tall, and ancient, mysterious light patterns surfaced on his body.

His eyes completely transformed into pure gold, containing the endless pressure of an ancient civilization.

What shocked Zhou Xing and the others was that twelve wings of light appeared behind his back, each over a hundred meters long with incredibly sharp edges; with a gentle flap, the very space seemed ready to be sliced apart.

This was the Law Incarnation form that only those at the Demigod level could possess.

After using it, one's strength would be multiplied for a short period, and the use of Laws would become much more proficient.

The Sky-Burning Sparrow high in the sky did not retreat because of Wei Guangming's outburst; it only felt that the "old acquaintance" before it was provoking it.

With a screech, its wings suddenly snapped together, and instantly, countless feathers shot out like a torrential rain covering the sky.

Every single feather was laced with terrifying solar energy, its momentum horrifying.

“Barrier of Light!”

Facing the Sky-Burning Sparrow's attack, Wei Guangming formed hand seals, instantly constructing layers of light energy shields in front of him to completely block the feathers.

However, the moment it launched that attack, the Sky-Burning Sparrow's wings suddenly folded back, and its massive body transformed into a crimson arrow, crashing toward Wei Guangming like a bolt of lightning.

This was the Sky-Burning Sparrow's physical impact skill—Solar Assault.

With the augmentation of terrifying high temperatures and its incredibly sharp beak, its speed now broke the sound barrier, aiming directly for the transformed Wei Guangming's chest with the support of the Solar Law.

The power of this strike had already broken through the limits of the Early Stage of a Demigod.

At the mere moment of contact, the powerful defensive shields were instantly pierced and subsequently vaporized.

Wei Guangming's expression changed, and in his haste, he raised his arm to block; the collision between the powers of Light and the Sun erupted into a blinding wave of destructive light.

“Crack!”

But following a crisp sound of bone fracturing, Wei Guangming's massive body was sent flying over a thousand meters, smashing through several mountain peaks along the way before finally stabilizing his figure.

In a clash of pure strength, he was at a disadvantage; this was the natural advantage of Mutated Beasts.

Only Divinity Awakened Ones with powerful physical bodies, similar to the titan god or the God of Mountains, could compete with Mutated Beasts in terms of strength.

The Sky-Burning Sparrow did not let up; at this moment, it only wanted to tear the fellow in front of it to shreds.

It knew very well that once its offspring was lost, it would basically be impossible to recover.

Its wings suddenly whipped up a terrifying solar storm,

and the blood that had previously splattered on the ground actually transformed into countless Fire Elementals.

Each one suddenly erupted,

constructing a Solar Cage that closed in on Wei Guangming.

“Boom!”

Just then, accompanied by a massive roar, a burst of holy power erupted, directly forcing the Sky-Burning Sparrow's attack aside.

Wei Guangming's giant figure slowly rose into the air; his left arm now looked unnaturally twisted as if broken, but the wound was already covered by dense light energy.

“Sky-Burning Sparrow, I already explained, but you brought this on yourself...”

After being injured, Wei Guangming was no longer in the mood for further nonsense; against a Sky-Burning Sparrow that had fallen into a frenzy, only beating it into submission would be effective.

“Buzz!”

In an instant, the twelve wings of light behind Wei Guangming surged in size, and incredibly sharp Blades of the Law of Light appeared at their edges, his entire body surrounded by dense and pure Law of Light.

At this moment, Wei Guangming seemed like the true god of light descending.

The Sky-Burning Sparrow could feel the human's aura becoming significantly stronger once again, but unless the other party returned its child, it would fight to the death.

“Caw—!”

Letting out an angry screech, the Sky-Burning Sparrow's wings spread wide, and the flames around its body gathered frantically; in the blink of an eye, a massive incandescent fireball over a hundred meters in diameter condensed, looking like a miniature sun.

This was the Sky-Burning Sparrow's “Solar Divine Punishment” skill; at full power, it was enough to incinerate a medium-sized city.

With a screech, the fireball crashed down toward Wei Guangming!

“Hmph, god of light's Punishment · Sword of Law!”

Wei Guangming sneered and abruptly raised his right hand; following that, the twelve wings of light behind him suddenly split, and the tip of each wing condensed a blade constructed purely from the Law of Light.

They then gathered together, finally forming a massive hundred-meter Sword of the Law of Light, which then shot toward the incandescent sphere of light.

“Boom—!!!”

The Sword of Law and the Solar Divine Punishment collided in mid-air, and a terrifying explosion swept across a radius of over a hundred miles.

The horrific shockwave caused the surrounding ground to cave in, forming a massive crater over several thousand meters in diameter centered on the two combatants.

The "Dawn" aircraft below had quietly started up as soon as the battle began and had instantly retreated into the distance.

Otherwise, it would have been unable to withstand this level of power.

The Sky-Burning Sparrow was knocked back by the aftershocks, but it was not injured; instead, it became increasingly berserk, suddenly flapping its wings as the flames around it surged once more.

At this point, it had begun to recklessly burn its divine power.

“Haha, good, very good. Wei Guangming, I want to see how long you can last against a frenzied Sky-Burning Sparrow. Once you are injured, I can kill several birds with one stone.”

Roughly dozens of kilometers away from the explosion, a figure stared at the commotion in the distance and couldn't help but say with a smile.

This person was Gao Yun, the City Lord of Godfall City. Beside him, Gao Yue, wearing blood-colored battle armor, held a bird egg that was crimson all over.

“Master, are we certain we can hatch the Sky-Burning Sparrow's offspring?”

At this moment, Gao Yue could feel the faint life aura within the bird egg in her hands.

“Don't worry, the aura fluctuations of this bird egg are very active. After we return, we only need to place it in high-temperature conditions of over ten thousand degrees, and it will be fully capable of hatching.

Once we control it directly, we can conversely make the Sky-Burning Sparrow our helper.”

Gao Yun was full of confidence.

His primary goal this time was to obtain geniuses like Zhou Xing, followed by dealing with Wei Guangming.

This unhatched Sky-Burning Sparrow egg was an unexpected harvest; it actually meant he didn't need to use other means to make the Sky-Burning Sparrow act.

This time, it was several gains at once!
