Chapter 1196: 1196
The stench of bloodlust was nauseating inside this cave . The wind blew ominously like the wailing of a ghost and dropped the temperature inside the cave several degrees . Not even the candles were unaffected and gained a bloody tint to their flames .
Everything changed the moment when this strange soul armament appeared . Zi Jin’s eyes dilated the moment he saw the armament and grew furious at once!
It was a demon armament!
There was no doubt in his mind that this was a demon armament! And it was already soaked with the blood of countless people!
“Bz!!”
In the blink of an eye, the demon armament was within three inches of his throat!
Given the circumstances, Zi Jin knew he was far too late to try and dodge it . He didn’t even bother to move! Instead, he allowed the shortsword to stab into his throat and…go through it!
Although he didn’t ‘move’, Zi Jin’s person disappeared from that place!
“……”
Dongfang Ming didn’t even flinch when he saw Zi Jin disappear from his spot . “Even someone as powerful as you has moments of dogged desperation…you’ve even left the barrier unprotected…”
Now that Zi Jin was gone, Dongfang Ming was free to turn his attention back to the miniature sun nearby . Smiling ominously, he slashed out at it with his shortsword!
“Chii!!”
The shortsword sunk deep into the sun without resistance . Sparks flew out from the ball as it was penetrated and began to tremble violently in response to the sword!
“Bzz…bzzz…”
“Rumble…rumble…”
The air within the cave began to hum violently in response to the ball of light . Soon, the entire cave followed suit as if there was an earthquake localized on the mountain!!
……
At the gates of the Crafting School, right in front of the barrier .
Multiple figures clashed against one another in the sky . Sparks of intense light exploded like fireworks whenever the two sides clashed . If not for the situation, any spectator would be amazed by the light show and cry out in excitement . But instead, the loud explosions of lightning, fireballs, and earthquakes made one feel extremely fearful for their lives .
Lin Dongxiao’s ambush onto Yang Yao was mostly made up for by the inclusion of Ouyang Hua . With him, the battle was now at a stalemate and could progress without one side being able to overcome the other . Below them, the Soul Kings were in a state of equilibrium as well .
Ouyang Hua wasn’t a Mid-stage Soul Emperor, but he was also quite stronger than an Early-stage Soul Emperor . His soul armaments hadn’t been upgraded by Bai Yunfei, but that didn’t take away from his strength . He still had the power to fight on equal grounds with the mid-stage class eight ancient wilderdragon (and Lin Dongxiao) .
Despite the wound he had, Yang Yao was doing a decent job of fighting off Huo Zhenting by himself . No matter how fiercely Huo Zhenting fought, Yang Yao managed to keep him at bay and even deal some harm to him . In either case, Yang Yao was fine for now .
On another side of the battlefield, Hu Yang held the upper hand over Qi Ning . His upgraded soul armaments allowed him to weather through any attacks he couldn’t dodge while also returning the favor without trouble . To his credit, Qi Ning fought viciously at the beginning but began to run out of steam as the fight continued . By a certain point, Qi Ning was fully committed to his defenses .
Similarly, Yang Ying was experiencing the same result as Hu Yang in her fight against the Early-stage Soul Emperor from the Soul Refining School .
Aside from the Soul Emperors, the battle between Kou Changkong and the Half-emperor from the Wind Lightning School was especially tumultuous .
In comparison to them, the battle between the Soul Kings was slightly less awe-inspiring . They fought fiercely, no doubt, and the crafters watching from behind the safety of the barrier were filled with awe at the sight .
The battle between the Soul Kings and Soul Emperors saw to the elemental energy being gathered in the world becoming extremely volatile . Whirlpools formed everywhere in the sky and surged with so much energy that anyone of the Soul Exalt level or below would be killed if they were to get too close to them .
“Boom boom boom boom…”
The hearts of the students would skip a beat whenever an attack smashed against the barrier . It was only because of this barrier that these students were able to be protected from harm even from afar .
But at that moment…
“Bzz… . ”
It came without warning . Everyone felt the world tremble as Mt . Crimson began to quake violently at its base . Terrified, the students looked up to see the giant curtain of light around their school surge and ripple outwards before…shattering!
