124: Starry Night, Star Festival
The dense [Feather Blade Storm] collided with an equally numerous [Shadow Ring Blade], and not only did a sizzling sound ring out.
Moreover, the shockwaves from the collision caused the grass and soil on the ground to fly up.
However, the [Shadow Ring Blade] only blocked a portion, and the remaining [Feather Blade Storm] continued to rush toward Luo Yang's position.
Chi Yan's [Flame Avatar] raised its head, looked at those feather blades, and then the flames around its body burned even more fiercely.
After the feather blades approached its body, they actually began to crystallize, as if frozen by low temperatures.
But more feather blades pierced directly through the body of the [Flame Avatar], riddling it with holes like a sieve.
However, the number of [Feather Blade Storm] was visibly decreasing rapidly. The [Flame Avatar] that Luo Yang himself had condensed served as a third layer of defense. Finally, before dissipating, it completely blocked the remaining feather blades.
The [Azure Cloud Eagle King] had only released one [Skill], yet it almost forced Luo Yang to use all his Beast Master methods just to withstand it.
The youth opposite, suspected to be from the Feng family, watched Luo Yang block his [Skill], a look of surprise appearing on his face.
"I advise you to just surrender. You struggled so much to block just this one wave of attacks."
The youth kindly reminded Luo Yang.
Luo Yang stood between Chi Yan and the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird], looking at him with stubborn eyes.
"The words 'surrender' do not exist in my dictionary. I want to see for myself if the difference between a Spirit Rank beast and a [King-Ranked Beast] is truly as great as the legends say."
The youth shook his head speechlessly, muttering to himself, 'Why is this guy so stubborn?'
"Fine, then as you wish."
This time, the [Azure Cloud Eagle King] carried [Wind Blade]s around its body and flapped its wings, rushing toward Luo Yang.
It seems that even though it is now a [King Beast], it cannot use the previous [Feather Blade Storm] without interruption.
However, the momentum of its charge was no less intense than the pressure of the previous [Feather Blade Storm].
The [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] lowered its head, rubbed against Luo Yang, and then fearlessly flew up to meet it.
The [Azure Cloud Eagle King] descended like a sharp sword of divine retribution.
The [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] flew up to intercept it, the stars behind its head emitting a clear, bright light. Against the backdrop of the night, it looked even more like a star swimming against the current.
However, all the spectators could feel the indomitable and resolute aura contained within those stars.
Just as the two were about to collide, the star-shaped feathers on the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird]'s wings, which had previously been dim, suddenly burst into brilliant light.
At the same time, as if responding to the brilliance on the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird]'s body.
On Luo Yang's side of the pitch-black sky, dense stars suddenly appeared, scattering thousands of rays of light that enveloped the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird].
The aura of the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] increased dramatically, as if it had received some kind of magical blessing. Numerous illusory stars appeared behind it, clashing with the [Wind Blade]s surrounding the [Azure Cloud Eagle King].
In an instant, the sound of explosions surrounding them was endless, and the [Wind Blade]s were scattered by the stronger fluctuations.
The impact energy of the exploding stars collided with the [Azure Cloud Eagle King], but it did not cause any effective damage.
The two beasts began to ram and fight in the air. Although the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird]'s aura had increased for a moment, it was still somewhat struggling to entangle with the [Azure Cloud Eagle King].
It had sustained more damage than the [Azure Cloud Eagle King].
Luo Yang took a deep breath, seized this opportunity, mounted Chi Yan, and charged toward the youth opposite.
The youth looked strangely at the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] entangling with the [Azure Cloud Eagle King], a bit confused. How did this bird suddenly become so much stronger?
However, seeing Luo Yang charging at him, seemingly trying to take the opportunity to take out the Beast Master, he chuckled softly,
"The gap between the [King Rank] and the [Spirit Rank] is quite large."
After speaking, he gently tapped his toes on the ground, and his entire body floated lightly into the high sky.
Luo Yang watched the youth getting further and further away, gritting his teeth. This was too shameless.
He continuously condensed [Shadow Ring Blade]s in his hands and shot them toward the youth.
However, the effect of these attacks was not very significant, even if a few sporadic attacks approached the youth's side.
They would be neutralized by the [Light Blade]s emitted by the [Sun Gazing Golden Lotus] in his arms.
Clearly, the [Azure Cloud Eagle King] would not give Luo Yang much time for this pursuit. With a clever turn, it abandoned the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] it was fighting.
Then it turned and headed toward Luo Yang. Before its body arrived, the [Wind Blade]s arrived first.
'Puff'
The sound of [Wind Blade]s sinking into flesh rang out.
Luo Yang widened his eyes and patted Chi Yan, who was beneath him. Chi Yan slowly stopped its running body and then slowly lay down.
The [Azure Cloud Eagle King]'s [Wind Blade] attack was indeed too strong. Several [Wind Blade]s entered from Chi Yan's back and exploded inside its body.
The external wounds looked very minor, but in reality, its interior was riddled with holes.
Luo Yang closed his eyes. The gap with the [King Beast] was still quite large.
He watched the [Azure Cloud Eagle King] growing larger in his pupils and smiled silently.
The stars in the night sky seemed to become more numerous and brighter, and Luo Yang's eyes were as brilliant as the stars at this moment.
When the [Azure Cloud Eagle King]'s claws reached toward Luo Yang's chest, Luo Yang not only did not dodge but instead hugged the sharp claws.
??? The [Azure Cloud Eagle King] was full of question marks, suddenly feeling that something was slightly wrong.
However, at such a close distance, it was already too late to react. Dazzling light bloomed from Luo Yang's body.
Then, two explosions rang out simultaneously from different locations.
The two-thousand-square-meter battle arena was directly blasted into a scene of devastation; the ground was plowed through fiercely.
The spectators outside the arena temporarily suffered from tinnitus. Fortunately, this was the [Illusion World] and would not bring any damage back to reality; otherwise, these spectators would be in big trouble, getting sick just from watching a match.
It was precisely because of this that Luo Chen was not overly worried about his brother's safety. As for the psychological trauma from the self-detonation, he could only wait until he returned to provide counseling.
What he was recalling in his mind now were the two [Skill]s that the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] had suddenly gained enlightenment on, as well as Luo Yang's final choice.
[6. Starry Night (Earth Rank): Domain Skill. The [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] plunges a certain area into a land of starry night. Under the starry night, the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird]'s own combat power is increased, it can continuously recover the consumption it generates, and it can cause the stars to descend as star beams to deal damage to targets under the starry night.]
[7. Offering to the Stars (Earth Rank): The [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] sacrifices itself to the stars, producing explosive damage in the area that far exceeds its own rank and strength.]
When the [Azure Cloud Eagle King] was pursuing Luo Yang at the end, the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] also changed its target and pursued the youth.
Although the youth was a [King-Rank Beast Master], his flight speed could not compare to a real beast, so it easily caught up to the youth.
However, the youth was not panicked at the time because he was confident that the [Sun Gazing Golden Lotus] beside him could protect him.
Who knew that at the last moment, the [Nightshade Dark Spirit Bird] simply arrived beside him and used the newly learned [Skill], [Offering to the Stars], simultaneously with Luo Yang.
Producing an explosion far exceeding the [Spirit Rank], it subjected the [Azure Cloud Eagle King] and its Beast Master to such a degree of impact that they were left with no bones remaining.
Therefore, as for the outcome of this battle, one could only wait for the system's verdict.
However, the system's voice did not ring out for a long time, as if it was also struggling to determine the result of this match. Perhaps the system was seeking help from a higher level.
After another while, the system's voice finally rang out.
"In this match, no contestants survived, so it is ruled a draw for both contestants."
"Both contestants receive 0.5 points. Please take a short rest and look forward to the next match."
A draw? For Luo Yang, it seemed like a very good result, after all, the opponent possessed a [King Beast].
"Young Master, Young Master. The next item is the auction material you need."
The young woman's respectful voice seemed to come from the horizon.
Luo Chen knew that the item he wanted to bid on was about to appear, so the waitress beside him was calling him.
Luo Chen took one last look at Luo Yang, who had just reappeared in the [Illusion World], shook his head, abandoned the idea of sending a message, and turned to exit the [Illusion World].
"The next auction item is a rare spirit fire, a third-rank top-tier spirit item, the Bone Chilling Flame."
For guests with special needs, do not miss out on bidding."
"The starting price is 600,000 spirit coins, and each increment must be no less than 10,000 spirit coins."
