Feiyun has finally left his cultivation session. He didn’t make it to the lake just yet before two more half-step Giants took action to kill him at the last moment.
These were two old corpses dressed in purple with talismans floating above their heads. They had a battle potential comparable to ordinary half-step Giants and launched their strongest attacks before Feiyun could reach the tablet.
The other Giant from the temple took action as well with his crescent moon.
The power of three Giants crushed the vegetation and stones nearby to a pulp. The ground was lit with a raging fire.
However, all three were stopped! The figure wrapped in flames fought against the three half-step Giants. Their battle took them all the way above the clouds.
Feiyun knew time was of the essence. His body slightly s.h.i.+fted and disappeared from the peak before emerging again by the tablet. At the same time, the tablet lit up. The words “Nalan Hongtao” became blindingly dazzling and turned into a majestic and towering figure.
Everyone was entirely absorbed by this scene. Although many didn’t hope for his victory, there was still a sliver of expectation inside them. After all, everyone wanted to witness a piece of history in person.
Feiyun stood on the lake with his mind as calm as ever and a sharpness in his eyes, not to mention the highest level of self-confidence. However, he wasn’t in a hurry to attack and channeled his energy while boosting his battle intent.
He must reach his peak condition before fighting against someone like Nalan Hongtao. The smallest mistake would result in his defeat and death.
“Boom!” Feiyun finally took action. There was no fancy prelude, only all of his strongest means at once. The flood of energy encompa.s.sed the entire lake.
Nalan Hongtao’s avatar also unleashed its strongest blow.
The battle instantly became intense since there was no need to gauge each other. All they wanted was to win.
Even though the battle between half-step Giants in the sky was much more terrifying and magnificent, everyone here was focused on the center of the lake.
The water itself had been frozen then boiled until it evaporated.
“Will Feng Feiyun be able to defeat Nalan Hongtao at the same level?” No one dared to blink since they might miss this wondrous battle.
Feng Feiyun roared: “Break!”
“Crack!” A tearing power erupted with a white brilliance that nearly blinded all the spectators.
Nalan Hongtao’s body finally shattered like a statue being knocked down. It split and dispersed into smoke.
The powerful name on the tablet gradually turned faint and blurry before disappearing completely.
“Feng… Feng… Feng Feiyun has defeated Nalan Hongtao, a legendary character at the same level…” Although many had a hunch that this would happen, they were still shaking when it became reality.
After all, the significance behind this was too great. This type of shock was no lesser than seeing a G.o.d being taken down.
“Feng Feiyun just needs to carve his name on the tablet and it will grant him its providence, allowing him to become a supreme hero in this generation, the main character without peers.”
***
The tablet was thirty-three meters high like a hill with a layer of protective light. If one couldn’t defeat the mark of the wise sages, they would never be able to break this layer even if they were Giants.
Feiyun was contemplating while standing in front of the tablet. However, it wasn’t about carving his name. He cared more about the runes at the top of the monument and their connection to the ancient altar on Mount Banda.
The runes were too high and protected by the barrier. Only entering would allow one to find some more clues.
“Rumble!” A gap on the barrier widened like a tiny door and was about to close shortly after.
One must enter before the gap closes!
Feiyun was going to enter, but a sharp windbreak came from behind him with unreasonable speed. Despite using his Swift Samsara, he was still almost run over.
“Boom!” A golden ray flashed by Feng Feiyun and blew him a dozen meters away.
It was a carriage! The imperial dragon carriage!
“Feng Feiyun, you think I would be so kind as to help you? I was only using you. So what if you can defeat Nalan Hongtao? All you have done is make my wedding dress.” [1]
The princess controlled the carriage and initiated the eight dragon souls. She instantly arrived inside the protective light.
