Swoosh!
Vladimir’s speed was greatly affected by the Spatial Fetters, but he was still quite swift. He instantly rushed ferociously at Yang Ling. His sharp, large blade shone with a cold glint, and it emitted a sizzling noise as it went after Yang Ling’s neck.
“Oh my God. Dodge it quickly. Hurry up!”
“It’s amazing. He’s really much stronger than an apex High-Level Deity.”
…
The wanderers in the vicinity exclaimed in surprise as they observed the swift Vladimir, who launched sharp attacks. Some people were dumbfounded, some heaved deep sighs, while others were worried. There were still some clever people who sneaked out of this dangerous Wanderer Camp quietly and rushed toward the Wanderer Castle. They wanted to distance themselves from this place as much as possible!
Even though Algernon Divine Branch’s people stated that they would only deal with the suspicious people, which were Yang Ling’s group, no one knew whether or not they would try to slaughter the crowd to silence them, and no one was assured an accident wouldn’t occur.
“Is this the power of a Divine Duty’s expert?”
Yang Ling looked at Vladimir, who rushed at him swiftly, then at the terrifying blade in his hand. His pupils contracted, and as a swooshing sound echoed out, he teleported away. His opponent’s power was too great. Even the Abyssal Demon couldn’t move easily once he was engulfed by the Spatial Fetters, and he didn’t expect the meatball-like Vladimir to still be so swift.
Facing the opponent head-on wasn’t a valid solution, because even if everyone rushed at him together, that still wouldn’t be enough. The only way to contend against him was to use the Spatial Fetters and Five Elements Evasion Spells to slowly weaken him before launching a deadly strike with the Battle Soul Blade at a crucial juncture.
“Humph! Where are you running?”
After Vladimir’s strike hit empty air, he looked at the swift Yang Ling and let out a shout. He sped up again, but Yang Ling still got out of the way, and Vladimir’s attack hit empty air again. He couldn’t touch Yang Ling with his sharp blade, and even the innumerable Earth Thorns couldn’t deal with him. Yang Ling would always teleport out of the way at every crucial juncture.
Yang Ling drew help from the Spatial Fetters’ dense Crystal Fog and was like a fish in water. He thoroughly released the Five Elements Evasion Spells’ power and managed to get out of the way at every crucial juncture. Vladimir’s eyes, which chased after Yang Ling, burned with rage. He was so infuriated that he almost vomited blood.
“Young master, the Spatial Law is quite mysterious and can’t be practiced by ordinary people,” a black-robed old man told Dio. He was behind the youth, observing Yang Ling repeatedly dodge Vladimir’s attacks. “This guy is incredibly skilled in Spatial Teleportations, and his status is anything but simple. He either has an amazing teacher or comes from a powerful clan. Don’t you think…” The old man’s expression was gloomy, and he hesitated for a moment before he said, “I didn’t detect the aura of the Dragon-Head Ring we lost in the bodies of this group of people. So, why don’t we just forget about this?”
After the black-robed old man observed the swift Yang Ling and detected the obscure Wizard Power Ripples within Yang Ling’s body, his expression turned grave. Algernon Divine Branch was very powerful, but he still didn’t want the young master to invite trouble upon himself everywhere. Killing Yang Ling wouldn’t be difficult, but if they provoked a powerful faction by this, then they would be in great trouble. In addition, there was still a heavily injured Cutting Edge Warrior of Death, and no one knew the relationship between Yang Ling and Richardson’s Green Clan.
“Hehe, forget about it?” Dio sneered coldly. “Mr. Vitaly, I must get his Godhead at all costs precisely because it’s difficult to practice the Spatial Law. Our clan has innumerable foes in various planes, and we don’t mind having another one.”
The beautiful Chief Elven Priestess made Dio’s eyes light up, and he planned to capture her before training slowly, but killing Yang Ling and taking his Godhead was more important. He believed that as long as he fused with Yang Ling’s Godhead and comprehended the Spatial Teleportation Law, his power would rise greatly, and he might have a chance to defeat his few half-brothers, as well as take control over the whole clan. Once that happened, he would have greater power and could get anything he wanted. He could even trample upon his hateful few brothers.
“But young master Dio…” The black-robed old man Vitaly still wanted to say more to persuade Dio, but when he discerned that Dio’s expression was gloomy and that he furrowed his brows impatiently, he could only swallow his words and shake his head before heaving a sigh.
“Lightning Storm!” Yang Ling dodged Vladimir’s attack again before he cast the Earth Protection Spell and fired many thick serpentine lightning bolts. He launched a powerful counterattack!
Sizzle!
The dazzling lightning bolt streaked across the air and fell instantly upon Vladimir’s head. As a sizzling noise echoed, one bolt after another appeared and instantly formed a dense net of lightning. It seemed like a group of venomous snakes that pounced at Vladimir.
“Lightning Law?”
Vladimir cried in surprise before he waved his hand and formed a yellow barrier around his body, which blocked the numerous lightning bolts. Yang Ling using the Spatial Law had been shocking; he didn’t expect that Yang Ling still practiced the powerful Lightning Law, too.
There were innumerable people that practiced the Nature Law, Death Law, and Force Law in the numerous planes, but people who practiced the Spatial Law and the Lightning Law were rare, and those who practiced those two laws at the same time were even rarer.
It was very difficult to practice the Spatial Law and the Lightning Law, and people might not make any progress with them even after investing innumerable years. People who could practice any of them successfully were considered great geniuses that would appear only once every 10,000 years, and people who could successfully practice both laws were geniuses among geniuses.
“Death Coil!”
When the Thousand-Handed Blood Vine Elizabeth in the vicinity noticed that Vladimir was trapped by Yang Ling’s Lightning Storm, she seized the chance and rushed over recklessly. As a “swooshing” sound echoed out, she stretched out her innumerable tentacles and tried to strangle him, while the Sword God Gerald, the Chief Elven Priestess, and the others also rushed over, because they hoped to kill the powerful Vladimir by joining hands. Even the heavily injured Richardson rushed over recklessly again.
When Vladimir saw the crowd rushing toward him at the same time, he wasn’t surprised. Instead, he was delighted, and he muttered to himself in a soft voice before he waved his right hand strongly. “Hahaha, good. It’s good that you have come over. Now I can just get rid of all those guys in one go.”
In an instant, the Dragon-Head Ring around his finger shone brightly, and a perimeter of one hundred feet around him was engulfed by its radiance. He strongly constricted the scope of Yang Ling’s Spatial Fetters and greatly lowered the crowd’s power and speed. Soon after he raised walls on all four sides and quickly formed a prison-like room that surrounded the crowd and blocked their way out.
Earth Cage!
Vladimir didn’t mind consuming a large amount of Divine Power and Wish Power to use his stronger offensive technique, Earth Cage, so that he could kill Yang Ling and the others with one move. This was the strongest Earth Law technique that he comprehended after joining Algernon Divine Branch and getting a Divine Duty.
“It’s awful!”
When Yang Ling discerned that the situation was far from good, he weaved Wizard Seals decisively and was about to take the crowd into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension so that they could take refuge in it temporarily. However, when he just started weaving Wizard Seals, Vladimir rushed through the Magical Barrier and waved his blade at Yang Ling. He was as swift as lightning, and Yang Ling couldn’t dodge this time.
“Die!”
Vladimir forcefully extracted his Dragon-Head Ring’s Wish Power to instantly kill Yang Ling, who grasped Spatial Teleportation Law with a single strike. He instantly rushed out with high speed and quickly appeared in front of Yang Ling as if he had teleported over there. He used a single deadly strike and tried to kill the hateful loach-like Yang Ling with a single blade strike.
Ding!
Vladimir’s powerful all-out strike possessed great might, and it instantly destroyed Yang Ling’s Earth Protection Spell and split open the Ice-Sealing Armor worn by him. After it had done so, the blade still had some power left, and it strongly hacked Yang Ling’s body. A large amount of blood gushed out!
“Hahaha! Soul Extermination. Die!” Vladimir laughed heartily and released his powerful cobweb-like Divine Consciousness. He condensed miniature Earth Thorns, which contained Soul Attacks, out of thin air and tried to destroy Yang Ling’s soul with a single strike.
Swoosh!
The arrow-like Earth Thorns flew toward Yang Ling’s head at high-speed. Even the Thousand-Handed Blood Vine, Chief Elven Priestess, and others in the vicinity couldn’t save Yang Ling in time, let alone the beauty Sala, who observed the battle from a distance. However, when the crowd cried out in alarm and Vladimir laughed loudly, about to stretch out his hand to forcefully take Yang Ling’s Godhead, a surprising matter occurred.
When the miniature Earth Thorns that contained Soul Attacks penetrated Yang Ling’s body, the ring around Yang Ling’s finger shone with bright scarlet radiance, and as a “swooshing” noise echoed from it, it formed nine malevolent-looking giant dragons with two horns. The dragons had pitch-blade bodies, which were covered by scales, and had shining giant claws, which emitted a black radiance. Many miniature spatial fissures could be seen faintly here and there, and the dragons seemed like the legendary Demonic Hell Dragons. This was a ghastly sight!
Roar!
After the nine giant dragons let out a roar, they flew onward and turned into phantom images that penetrated Vladimir’s body. They tore his innards and veins and rushed forcefully through his body. They wreaked havoc within his body and attacked his soul.
“Ah! Nine Dragons’ Protection?” Vladimir let out a miserable scream, and he fell heavily onto the ground with a loud rumble. He hugged his head and rolled on the ground crazily. He had a splitting headache, and he was in so much pain he felt like his head was going to explode. The terrifying Earth Cage had already disappeared!
It was now!
Buzz!
Yang Ling didn’t give attention to the wound on his body, and he gnashed his teeth before he pulled out the Battle Soul Blade on his back. As a “swooshing” sound echoed out, he rushed toward the spasming Vladimir and hacked his head fiercely with his blade. He then thrust his right hand into Vladimir’s chest and took out his Godhead.
