Chapter 1024 – Taking Action

Primordial Ruin, Twilight Fortress:

When the radiant beams faded, revealing the outcome of the clash, everyone from the human race and the Holy Race was dumbfounded. They never imagined the clash would end like this.

“Elise is too strong. Garuda is no match for her whatsoever. Out of everyone from the three races, probably only the mysterious Ink Crystal can compete with her now.”

“No wonder Demon’s Gate is determined to gain full control over the Twilight Fortress. Elise alone is enough to defeat the experts from the various pseudo-apex powers and the Seven Luminaries Alliance.”

“When I first heard that the God’s Domain Association promoted Demon’s Gate to a royal power, I thought the Association was bribed to do so! But now, it seems Demon’s Gate’s promotion is the real deal! With this, our race finally has its own royal power!”

Despite Demon’s Gate’s terrible reputation in the human race’s Greater God’s Domain, the experts in the Twilight Fortress grew ecstatic after witnessing Elise’s strength. The various powers’ chosen ones even looked at her with admiration.

After the start of the war among the three races, the chosen ones of the three races would frequently clash. However, the human race’s chosen ones had always been suppressed by the Holy Race’s and the Crystallian race’s chosen ones. Even when it came to the Eternal Chosen One Ranking List published by the Holy Race, only a few human experts had made it into the top 30.

Garuda’s strength was clear for all to see. He ranked among the top five of the Eternal Chosen One Ranking List. After activating Lightning Transformation and turning into a Sacred Lightning Beast, the aura he exuded surpassed even that of Taboo Bosses. Yet, despite being an existence capable of fighting Primordial Gods, he still lost to Elise. This outcome became a huge motivation to the human experts present.

…

“How strong!” Hidden Soul exclaimed as she stared at Elise’s figure. “I doubt I can survive that attack, even using Divine Blood and activating my strongest Lifesaving Skill!”

“The third stage! Is this the might of someone at the sixth-floor standard’s third stage?” Lunar River clenched her fists as she stared at Elise. Then, she sighed, “No wonder those existences would choose her. But with this, even if we defeat the Holy Race, the subsequent competition over the fortress will be difficult…”

The other sixth-floor experts present also sighed at Lunar River’s mutterings.

No Tier 6 player could survive getting hit by two of Elise’s Twelvefold Supernova Destructions. If not for Garuda transforming into a Sacred Lightning Beast and becoming a Tier 7 Lifeform, he would have died on the spot.

“The third stage, is it?” Shi Feng was also shocked by Elise’s display of strength. He never imagined that reaching the sixth-floor standard’s third stage would enhance one’s use of Concentration to such an extent.

Most sixth-floor experts could not cast even one Twelvefold Supernova Destruction. Yet, Elise had done so twice simultaneously. The power of her attack could already rival the all-out attack of the Five-Headed Chaos Dragon.

…

While Shi Feng marveled at Elise’s performance, Daystar and the other Absolute Chosen Ones looked at Elise solemnly.

“Her strength is simply monstrous. No wonder those existences would choose her,” Tyrant Claw said, his voice no longer as relaxed as before.

“Indeed. Although I’ve long since guessed that Garuda wouldn’t be able to kill her by himself, I never thought she would be this strong.” Daystar nodded, her expression similarly turning serious. “It seems we have no choice but to act together.”

“Although I’m not keen on this idea, I can tell it is our only choice,” Morning Echo said, shrugging at Daystar’s proposal.

“Then, Garuda and I will be the vanguard while you guys try to find an opening,” Tyrant Claw said, getting ready to join Garuda in tackling Elise.

“Elise is indeed a good opponent,” Fist Emperor said, fighting spirit burning in his eyes as he looked at Elise. However, he quickly turned his attention toward Shi Feng and continued, “But before we work together, I still have Black Flame to deal with.”

“Suit yourself,” Morning Echo said, laughing at Fist Emperor’s decision. “But can you do it quickly? If you’re still not done when we finish dealing with Elise, don’t blame us for not cutting you a share of the rewards.”

“Don’t worry. Black Flame doesn’t have his siege weapon with him. He won’t last three moves against me!” Fist Emperor said, glancing at Morning Echo. Then, he transformed into a 10,000-meter-tall giant and charged Shi Feng.

“What a lunatic,” Morning Echo said, clicking her tongue when she saw Fist Emperor wasting his Tier 7 Profound Skill without hesitation.

The commission to probe Elise’s strength was a golden opportunity for them to raise their standings in the imperial powers to which they belonged. Yet, Fist Emperor prioritized his revenge on Shi Feng over seizing this opportunity. He even wasted his Skyquake Set’s Tier 7 Profound Skill.

Fist Emperor’s Skyquake Set was superior to Garuda’s Lightning Beast Set. Likewise, its Tier 7 Profound Skill Ancestral Transformation was slightly stronger than the Lightning Beast Set’s Lightning Transformation. In the last Hundred Race Battlefield, Fist Emperor even killed over a dozen Tier 7 combatants simultaneously with the help of this Tier 7 Profound Skill.

However, in return for granting its user immense power, Ancestral Transformation only had a short duration of one minute, much shorter than Lightning Transformation’s three-minute duration. Hence, it was only suitable for quick fights.

For Fist Emperor to use Ancestral Transformation against Shi Feng—someone who wasn’t even in the top 20 of the Eternal Chosen One Ranking List—was an absolute waste. It was akin to using a cannon to kill a mosquito.

…

On the other side, the sight of Fist Emperor’s 10,000-meter-tall frame charging the Twilight Fortress worried the experts in the fortress.

Everyone had seen how powerful Garuda’s Lightning Transformation was. The Sacred Lightning Beast was not an opponent the average Tier 6 player could fight. Even the shockwaves of its attacks were lethal to Tier 6 players. Now that an equally strong giant was charging the fortress, how could they not panic?

However, before everyone could return to their senses, Fist Emperor’s voice suddenly echoed across the battlefield.

“Black Flame! I have come for your life!”

Fist Emperor’s shout prompted everyone in the Twilight Fortress to look at Shi Feng. They never thought one of the Five Absolutes would come after Shi Feng specifically.

“He’s going straight for Black Flame?” Soul Hunter snickered when he saw Fist Emperor throwing a punch straight at Shi Feng.

Shi Feng might stand among the apex of the three races as a Tier 7 combatant, but Fist Emperor was currently a Tier 7 Lifeform. There was still a huge gap in strength. Moreover, with Fist Emperor’s current size, a single punch from him could obliterate everything within a 1,000-yard radius.

If Shi Feng chose to evade Fist Emperor’s punch rather than block it, many Zero Wing members would likely get killed.

“Dammit!”

Lunar River, who stood beside Shi Feng, wore a grim expression when she saw Fist Emperor’s attack. She instinctively reached for the two pitch-black greatswords she carried and leaped forward to defend against the punch.

In a one-on-one fight, Lunar River was confident she could last a long time against Fist Emperor, even if he had Ancestral Transformation active. However, Fist Emperor’s attack had caught her off-guard. If she were to evade or deflect the attack, every non-Divine Set user within the attack’s AOE would face only one outcome—

Soul Annihilation!

The members King’s Paradise sent to the Twilight Fortress were its most elite experts. King’s Paradise would be finished if they were permanently killed.

However, before Lunar River could block the lightning-fast punch, a figure suddenly appeared before her and blocked the mountainous fist with one hand.

Boom!

A powerful shockwave spread across the battlefield, pushing all Tier 6 experts within a 1,000-yard radius back over a hundred yards. Even the space within that 1,000-yard radius cracked and nearly shattered.

“Guild Leader Black Flame?”

Everyone was shocked when they regained their bearings and saw the source of the shockwave, especially Lunar River.

Lunar River was dumbfounded as she stared at Shi Feng, the person hovering before her. With just one hand, Shi Feng caught Fist Emperor’s mountainous fist. Moreover, he had done so without budging an inch or losing a single HP…
