Chapter 1233: 1233
Once again, Shen Pojun and Gu Lianhun found themselves stunned by Bai Yunfei’s capabilities . In fact, once he saw how Bai Yunfei was able to use the Law of Chaos, Gu Lianhun found himself with a sliver of ‘fear’!
It wasn’t just chaotic energy, but the Law of Chaos itself! This was a type of power not even he, a Saint, was able to comprehend just yet! How was a simple Early-stage Soul Emperor able to do what he couldn’t?!
As fast as it appeared, the fear in his eyes was replaced with another entity: killing intent!
“This child cannot be allowed to live!!”
Bai Yunfei was now someone Gu Lianhun was willing to call a threat . A threat to not just himself, but to the Soul Refining School as a whole! Given time to develop, this child would most definitely be able to achieve Sainthood! It was a terrifying thought; if that happened…what would the Soul Refining School be able to do?!
And so Gu Lianhun was fully resolved to kill Bai Yunfei . In fact, Bai Yunfei’s name was on top of his list, knocking Shen Pojun from the top! He was a threat that couldn’t be allowed to continue existing!
“It’s been two hundred years since I lost contact with my main body . I don’t know what might’ve happened in ‘that’ place, but I should still be alive…my avatar dying here…wouldn’t be the end of everything…”
A melancholic light passed through Gu Lianhun’s eyes . The thought of him sacrificing his own avatar was a sad one, but he was resolved to do so if it meant the destruction of Bai Yunfei and Shen Pojun .
Without having a main body to communicate with for over two hundred years ago, Gu Lianhun’s avatar was essentially an ‘individual’ of its one . The connection between the two had been lost for so long that the avatar has resigned itself to protect the Soul Refining School . Like the main body, the avatar placed the school as its highest priority . Sacrificing himself for the school was not a price too heavy for him to pay .
It was in this regard that he was similar to Shen Pojun…
“Boom boom boom…”
Without any lingering hesitations, Gu Lianhun threw himself back into the fight with even more vigor than before!
……
“Ancestor, please focus on defending against his attacks, I’ll manage the chaotic energy around us . We should be able to drain his avatar of energy if we keep stalling!!”
Shen Pojun blinked as he processed Bai Yunfei’s words, “Very well then!!” He replied . The plan, while surprising, was not a bad one .
His own plan had the same goal as Bai Yunfei, though he hadn’t much hope in accomplishing it by himself . With Bai Yunfei here, however, Shen Pojun now had hope that it’d work .
He hadn’t the foggiest of Bai Yunfei’s capabilities, but he didn’t have the time to think about it . With his aid, Shen Pojun was sure that he wouldn’t have to waste any energy safeguarding himself from the chaotic energy . That in itself was a blessing and would definitely alleviate the drain on his soulforce .
That didn’t mean he could leave Bai Yunfei to protect him from Gu Lianhun’s attacks, however . Gu Lianhun’s strike earlier was stopped by Bai Yunfei, but it was stopped with great difficulty . An Early-stage Soul Emperor simply didn’t have the power to stop the attack of a Saint with ease .
It was simply a test of strength for Bai Yunfei . He wanted to see his limits against a Saint, and the results left a bitter smile on his face .
“As I thought, a Saint’s power is too much for me, even with the help of the Law of Chaos…Just one attack takes away a third of my soulforce…that’s not an amount I can ignore in this kind of battle!”
It was a bitter truth, but Bai Yunfei wasn’t down for the count just yet . He never had the idea that he might be able to fight a Saint by himself, and neither did he think he’d be able to charge head-on against Gu Lianhun . His true plan was to aid Shen Pojun as much as he could for the most optimal chance of victory .
“Ancestor, is that crescent-moon-shaped blade your lifebound armament?”
Bai Yunfei asked . He had been eyeing the three soul armaments flying around for a while now .
“Hm?” In the middle of controlling his soul armaments, Shen Pojun gave Bai Yunfei a quick glance before nodding, “Yes, I have named it the Flame Dragon Crescent Blade!”
“Ancestor, if you can bring that soul armament back for just a few moments, I can increase its attack power by over half its original power!”
“What?”
The confused eyes of Shen Pojun lingered even longer on Bai Yunfei as if waiting for confirmation on what he had just heard .
“There’s no time to explain,” Bai Yunfei returned with an earnest stare, “Please believe in me, ancestor . I would never joke around when the lives of our school and us are at stake!”
For a moment, Shen Pojun did nothing but stare at Bai Yunfei .
“Very well then!” He replied at last .
As puzzled as he was, Shen Pojun decided it was worth placing his trust in this Bai Yunfei . He couldn’t think of a way Bai Yunfei might ‘cheat’ him, and what Bai Yunfei said was true . There was no time for debate, but, there was enough time for him to pull his soul armament back for a while without Gu Lianhun taking advantage of it .
Waving his right hand, Shen Pojun summoned the sword back to him at once .
