Chapter 552 - Battling Against Shadow Legion (2)



Chapter 552

(Unedited)

Bam! Bam!

Loud explosive sounds echoed throughout the forest as debris began flying all over the place. The entire area where the clearing is lays in debris and craters. The battle between two figures has escalated to such destruction that if this happens to a populated area, even a city as big as the capital of Yi kingdom, Yi city would be decimated.

As of right now, Shin Jiao has already discovered a lot of things in the battle against the Shadow Being. First is that, from the time they started fighting, a protective dome has actually been erected preventing him and the creature from going out of this huge circular area. Second is the central part of the area where the boulders with runes are and the stone hand reaching out from under the ground, has not been touched even after the extreme destruction of the area.

Shin Jiao is currently panting while blood is slowly trickling out at the side of his mouth. His skin which should be really tough has been bruised and wounded. Even his strong camouflage armor already shows some cracks on the surface.

Meanwhile, the Shadow Being is still the same as strong as ever. But Shin Jiao can see that it has expended a large amount of dark Qi. It is already not holding back on its attacks.

And so far in their battle, Shin Jiao has used \'Essence Syphon\' skill three times already. And only ¼ of the energy he has absorbed goes to his energy spheres as the rest he would use for his attacks and defense.

"Hehe… Hahaha… This is really amazing! You are strong as I thought you to be… However, amused as I am, I must end this battle between us. Though it is a pity that I would have to destroy your body, I saw something more precious than your physique… Hehe…" the Shadow Being said as he looks at Shin Jiao\'s eyes.

It discovered that although Shin Jiao\'s physique is excellent, it is nothing to be compared to the Shadow Being. It has fought against millions of beings and deities in the universe and won against them. However, what surprises the Shadow Being is that, after fighting against the young mortal, it found out that no matter how disadvantageous and weak the mortal is he is still able to utilize his skills and many weird artifacts in his arsenal to fight head-on with him.

 This only shows that the mortal can think very fast in every dangerous situation and would reach quickly. If not for that, it would have already defeated the young mortal.

It then remembers a fight it had, hundreds of thousands of years ago. There was a powerful deity that was told to be as old as time itself. The deity has already expended all of his energy defending the cosmos against the onslaught of the shadow beings and demons. Millions of shadow beings were banished to the void at that time and demons annihilated. And the cause of this is because of a weakening deity.

Although he is already at the end of his ropes with his energy depleted, he is still able to fight against thousands using only his own fighting skills and quick thinking.

The great deity died but the forces of the Shadow Beings were halved and the rest escaped into the deep dark portion of the universe.

The Shadow Legion who is fighting against Shin Jiao is also a part of those who saw what happened and escaped with tails between their legs.

It could not help but compare the young mortal to that great deity.

So now, its interest was shifted into absorbing the young mortal\'s immortal soul. It knew that if it can devour the soul and the memories inside of it, the Shadow Being can increase its chances of escaping this place.

It flicked its hand and a dark blade appears on its hands.

"…"

Shin Jiao just watched the Shadow Being as it positions itself in a fighting stance. But he is not lessening his defense as he has already positioned himself sideways. On his right hand, he took out a shield, and on his left, he is secretly carving something.

Although he knew that what he is doing is a bit dangerous and he is not sure if it would work or not, he still has to try.

He can feel the rapid draining of his energy as he slowly carves runes on his left hand.

In this fight, he has not exposed his domain as he is still not sure if his enemy can counter it. His domain is one of his trump cards and he would not expose it prematurely in a fight.

But it seems that the Shadow Being could not wait to kill him anymore as it suddenly made it move.

With a swift dash, the Shadow Being suddenly changes its figure and turns into a tall man with a fit and agile body. From the way it holds the sword, Shin Jiao knew that this figure is an expert swordsman.

Swish!!!

The sword sliced through the air and black energy forming a cross flew rapidly towards Shin Jiao\'s location. However, Shin Jiao would not dare move as he is concentrated in carving the rune patterns. Hence he just divided his concentration and defended against that strong attack.

Upon receiving the flying energy his sturdy shield was destroyed in just one attack. Shin Jiao didn\'t hesitate and took out another shield from his inventory. He was thoroughly surprised because that shield that he just used uses a 6th level beast core however it was destroyed just like that.

Hence this time, would not dare try his luck. Although it would take longer, he would fight back while still carving the rune. His concentration would be at his highest and his energy is going to be rapidly consumed. But he has to do this to be able to survive this fight. This is his only chance.

He has now realized the strength of his opponent. He is actually fighting a being with an equivalent strength to that of a world nascent realm at the peak level. But the Shadow Being can sometimes draw out a skill that reaches the realms of the heavenly nascent level.

This is one of the reasons why the area they are not is already in full ruins with many molten rocks in some parts of the area within the barrier.

"Haha… Good… Good… Receive another of my attacks!" shouted the Shadow Being as it dashed towards Shin Jiao.

This time it did not rely on its energy but uses the strength of the artifact it is holding.

When Shin Jiao saw the black blade in his opponent\'s hands his heart was immediately filled with great danger.

He knew that if he is hit, neither his armor nor his shield would be able to protect him. In fact, he can feel that the black blade is like his black katana. Hence he didn\'t dare face it head-on.

He quickly lowered his body and dodges the sword\'s direction. But the shield on his hand was still struck and was cleanly sliced into two. Luckily his hand was not sliced.

A cold sweat broke out of Shin Jiao\'s back as he threw the shield on the ground.

This time, he has to use his katana to fight against the Shadow Being. If not, he would surely die before finishing the rune. According to his estimate, it would only take another 5 minutes before he can finish the rune. But the problem is the amount of energy in his dantian and spheres. Would it be enough to finish the heavenly runes?

When the Shadow Being saw the black katana its eyes immediately lit up.

"Haha… what a treasure… This young mortal truly has a lot of good things… I think my luck today is truly awesome!" it said in jubilation.

It then positions itself once again to attack, this time, its purpose is to attack consecutively. Hence it gathered its energy. But suddenly it stopped. It discovered a critical problem… It is running out of dark Qi.

The young mortal has absorbed too much of its energy and now it only has enough to open a portal once after this attack.

Hence it hesitated for a moment.

But then it decided to stop thinking and just enjoy the battle. Hence it then rushed once again towards Shin Jiao and brandished its sword.

Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal hitting each other hundreds or thousands of times reverberated through the air as the figure of Shin Jiao and the Shadow Being can be seen flickering all over the place. The intensity of the fight has once again destroyed the area inside the barrier and a thick dark cloud covered everything inside of it.

But the sound didn\'t stop.

Shin Jiao is barely holding up but he has to hold on and continuously defended. Then he now noticed that he is about to finish the runes he is carving. He knows not if it would be successful, but this is his last chance.

His tenacity irritated the Shadow Being.

"Do you think a mere ant can defeat me? Haha… Oh, I suddenly remember something… I know a secret…" the Shadow Being said with a sinister smile.

"…"

"I know who took your… woman. Hihi…"

When Shin Jiao heard this his expression change and suddenly the sword on his hand shook.

The Shadow Being felt this as their weapons collided.

"Tell me! Tell me where she is…" Shin Jiao shouted as he didn\'t take the passive stance and suddenly attacked.

The Shadow Being saw this opportunity and suddenly swung his blade. Shin Jiao barely dodges this attack towards his neck. But his katana was blown away by the collision.

Then he saw a kick was sent to his stomach which sent his flying towards the barrier.

Bang!!!

His figure slid down to the ground as he spat a mouthful of blood.

"Tell… me…" he said weakly.

With a proud smile on its face, the Shadow Being walked towards Shin Jiao in a relaxed manner. With the strength of that kick, it knew that the mortal is wounded really heavily.

"Well, since you are about to die, I can only do this favor for giving me such a wonderful battle." It said as is lowered its head and came closer towards Shin Jiao.

Then it whispered near Shin Jiao\'s ears.

"It was a woman named… Qian Li. She was the one who took your woman… and I… I helped her. Hihi…" the Shadow Being whispered with a sneer on its expression.

"Th… thank you…" Shin Jiao said.

When the Shadow Being heard this, it was a bit dazed. And when it drew its face away from Shin Jiao\'s side, it saw the expression on Shin Jiao\'s face.

It was immediately taken aback; it suddenly remembers the trick this mortal did in their battle. And it suddenly feels danger.

Shin Jiao is already smiling at the Shadow Being who is currently looking directly in his eyes.

With a bloody mouth, he muttered the words which made the shadow being with legions of shadows in its soul felt desperate.

"It\'s my win."
