Chapter 1015: Prelude to Counterattack

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Books, countless books.

Old Man Qin Mang’s house was like a library, filled with numerous books. While there were a lot of books, the place wasn’t messy at all. The bookshelves were all properly categorized and arranged.

Xia Fei suddenly thought back to his days working in the library. Those calm days of studying now seemed hard to come by. When he had left the library, he had started on a long, dangerous, and stimulating road, and calm drew farther and farther away.

Items were not like people. While the books were still the same books in the library, the old man was nowhere to be seen, and Xia Fei felt a tinge of grief.

After standing for several seconds in the library, Xia Fei got a hold of himself and pulled aside a bookshelf, opening a secret tunnel.

Xia Fei had personally ordered this secret tunnel and chamber to be made for the old man. Logically, if Xia Fei had wanted to, he could have gone inside whenever he wanted and taken a look at the old man’s treasure, but Xia Fei hadn’t done such a thing out of respect.

Clack!

The arc-shaped thirteen-section key turned a circle and a half before Xia Fei was able to open the thick alloy door, revealing a long, dark corridor. Moon Song pressed a b.u.t.ton, turning on the lights, and the three headed in.

After going through three such protective systems, Xia Fei’s group finally entered the old man’s most cherished secret room.

The place was lit as brightly as day.

Inside the room was a giant stone sarcophagus, one made of Dragon-Sealing Stone.

“Dragonstone? And it’s of the highest Xuanwu grade, too! Isn’t this something you can only find in the Law Realm? Why is there a sarcophagus made of Dragon-Sealing Stone in the old man’s secret room?” Moon Song asked, her eyes flas.h.i.+ng with curiosity.

Dragonstone could impede law force and so store high-level materials that gave off intense energy waves. But this Xuanwu-grade Dragonstone was produced in the Dark Race, and was extremely rare in the Law Realm. Xia Fei, Moon Song, and Chen Dong were all surprised to find a coffin made of Dragonstone in Qin Mang’s secret room.

“These materials are extremely old, so I’m guessing that rather than belonging to Old Man Qin Mang, he inherited it from someone else, or else found it during his adventures in the earlier half of his life,” Chen Dong remarked.

Xia Geng silently took the lid off the coffin. There was no time, and while Xia Fei missed Old Man Qin Mang, he understood that he did not have the time. He still needed to head to the Cosmic Gate.

The sc.r.a.ping of stone rang out in the room as the item within revealed itself to Xia Fei.

Before Xia Fei could speak, Radix called out in surprise, “The Overcast Wind Mace! Hosu’s Soul Weapon was here!? Heavens! That’s too absurd!”

Xia Fei was stunned. He carefully examined the long purple-handled bronze mace in the coffin. It looked like a thin paG.o.da, all sharp angles, and as it lay in the coffin, it exuded a vicious killing intent. It also radiated some invisible energy that made other people stare at it. Just one glance would leave one transfixed.

Xia Fei was a Superior Law G.o.d, so he was able to maintain his composure. But Moon Song and Celestial Moon became a little dazed and walked forward as if they were sleepwalking.

*Whoos.h.!.+*

Xia Fei took out a small spatial ring and hastily put the Overcast Wind Mace away. Xia Fei had been in a lot of battles as of late and had gained many treasures, so he wasn’t lacking for spatial rings.

Moon Song and Chen Dong awoke from their dazed states, their heads covered in sweat.

“Heavens! That weapon was far too bizarre! It made me subconsciously want to get close, like some power was pulling on me.” Moon Song wiped the sweat off her face, some fear still in her voice. Chen Dong threw up his arms, indicating that he didn’t understand.

Radix explained, “This is the power of a Soul Weapon! After all, Hosu is a Soul Hunter, and his weapon is meant for killing and absorbing souls. Moon Song and Chen Dong have no experience fighting with a Soul Hunter, so the Overcast Wind Mace naturally had an easy time entrancing them.”

Xia Fei was taken aback by the mystical properties of the Overcast Wind Mace. Not only could it kill enemies, it could even seize their soul power on its own!? Even people that were still alive could be influenced by its powerful energy.

“No wonder Hosu was always talking about his weapon. So the Overcast Wind Mace was this powerful!” Xia Fei muttered.

Turning his head, his eyes turning grave, Xia Fei gave the spatial ring with the Overcast Wind Mace to Chen Dong and solemnly said, “There’s no time to spare. You must immediately pa.s.s this weapon to Hosu!”

Chen Dong trembled in shock. He could tell that Xia Fei was actually rather concerned and could not afford the slightest delay.

“Hosu? That super-expert who was with you?” Chen Dong asked for clarification.

“Correct. This item is extremely important to him. You have to personally deliver it to him at once!” Xia Fei said solemnly.

“What about you?” Moon Song asked anxiously.

“I have something more important to take care of,” Xia Fei said, turning his head and staring at the two other items in the Dragonstone coffin.

For some reason, there was a little leaf in the sarcophagus, just quietly sitting there…

…

Battle! Battle! Battle! Frenzied battle!

The superwars.h.i.+ps t.i.tans and the four remaining Founders of the Hall of Many G.o.ds had arrived at the same time!

The Founders were stunned as they moved through s.p.a.ce, for across from them, a second t.i.tan was emerging from the spatial tunnel!

It had to be understood that this was an ultimate killing weapon, even larger than a star, and there was more than one!? Only a ghost would know how many resources and manpower this took!

“Forget about it and destroy this one first! We’ll destroy as many as there are!” Solo ordered, resolving himself.

The four Founders began to savagely attack the first t.i.tan!

Rumble!

In explosions of energy, the four Founders began to unleash long-distance attacks to destroy Xia Fei’s t.i.tans.

The Law Realm warriors were so shocked that their jaws dropped, and then their teeth clenched in hatred!

The Law Realm had no way to retreat and had been forced into a dead end, then Xia Fei’s t.i.tans had arrived and given everyone hope! Now these traitorous Founders wanted to destroy the Law Realm’s last trump card!

To think that they had once regarded the likes of Constant and Solo as G.o.ds and idols! This was the worst joke in the universe!

The people they had most admired were trying to destroy the Law Realm! Everyone instantly exploded with rage!

After all, the attacks of the Founders were immensely powerful, and the hearts of the warriors went cold upon seeing them. No one felt like the t.i.tans could resist Founder-level attacks.

But that was when a roar tore through the s.p.a.ce. The t.i.tan had not been destroyed by the Founders. On the contrary, it was beginning to return fire! It once more sent a howling laser beam at the Abyss!

The mushroom-shaped t.i.tan was surrounded by a thick protective barrier. Rather than shattering from the law force attacks, it was absorbing them!

The Law Realm had destroyed t.i.tans long ago because these wars.h.i.+ps had a unique immunity to laws! They could convert frenzied law force into energy, dispersing it and absorbing it!

It allowed the power of science to match the power of laws! This was truly a pioneering work of science!

The four Founders were so stunned that their eyes almost fell out. Although they had not used their full power, this giant s.h.i.+p’s defenses were simply too formidable! It could hold out against the attacks of a Founder? That was just too unbelievable!

It was actually quite the coincidence. If they had attacked the second t.i.tan rather than the first, they would have gotten a much better result.

This was because Xia Fei’s t.i.tans hadn’t all started being built at the same time, and they were at different levels of completion.

Once a new dock was finished, the Mech race would commit itself to building a new t.i.tan and a new dock.

Among all of Xia Fei’s t.i.tans, only the first, the Starlock, was fully armed and armored, possessing every required module. It had been in the testing stage, but because of the sudden outbreak of war, it had been rushed to the frontline. The others were all still in the arming phase. Some lacked engine power, while others had no s.h.i.+eld.

In short, the Starlock was the only fully-equipped t.i.tan! And as the Founders had chosen to attack this t.i.tan, their attacks were naturally not that effective.

Moreover, they had felt that they could destroy the t.i.tan without using their full power, and by underestimating their enemy, they had given the Starlock some hope of survival. Moreover, after that wave of attacks, the Starlock had activated its overclocking system! The entire wars.h.i.+p was now operating at above normal capacity, so even if the Founders intensified their attacks, it still might be able to hold!

Sometimes, the situation was just that bizarre. The four Founders had a major blow dealt to their confidence by their failure to destroy the t.i.tan, and at this moment, the experts led by Xia Gucheng and Hosu had arrived! The four Founders now had to contend with these new opponents!

Whoos.h.!.+

At this moment, Moon Song and Chen Dong arrived with Hosu’s important Soul Weapon, the Overcast Wind Mace!

Without a word, Chen Dong accelerated to the Founder battlefield.

“Hosu! Xia Fei wanted me to give this to you!” Chen Dong roared.

Hosu was startled, and then he saw the spatial ring that Chen Dong was clutching in his hand. Xia Fei had chosen to not close off the link between the spatial ring and the hidden s.p.a.ce it was connected to, but Hosu was able to sense a familiar energy coming from it!

“Overcast Wind Mace!” Hosu was stunned, and he became so excited that he almost went crazy!

He rushed over, took the spatial ring from Chen Dong, and lightly brushed a finger across it. The Soul Weapon emerged! The entire universe was stunned!

Rumble!

Both Xia Fei and Chen Dong had interacted with the Overcast Wind Mace, but it had not done anything too incredible, merely exuding a formidable mental pressure.

But the moment the Overcast Wind Mace appeared in Hosu’s hand, it immediately exploded with boundless power!

As Hosu raised this mace, a terrifying lightning bolt streaked through s.p.a.ce, striking the tip of the Overcast Wind Mace! The shockwave unleashed was even greater than that of a person breaking into the Law G.o.d realm!

A powerful gale immediately began to stir! Countless white wisps of energy that ordinary people couldn’t see began to rush toward Hosu, and all of it was absorbed by the Overcast Wind Mace!

This was a Soul Weapon, something that killed foes and helped its master acc.u.mulate energy!

Moreover, this Soul Weapon was Hosu’s personal weapon! While Xia Fei’s White Dragon’s Screech had been incredibly powerful, it was not Hosu’s personal Soul Weapon, so it would not have been as effective in his hands.

But the Overcast Wind Mace was a part of Hosu! Without the Soul Weapon, Hosu could barely be considered an average Soul Hunter, but with the Soul Weapon, he could unleash all of his power!

*Rumble!*

It wasn’t just the warriors who were stunned. The entire river of stars quaked!

One second after Hosu grabbed the Overcast Wind Mace, Hosu’s energy began to rise crazily! Like a rocket, it headed straight to the heavens!

At the same time, a third t.i.tan appeared in the spatial tunnel!
