Star Odyssey Chapter 797: Double Power

Chapter 797: Double Power

“Chase after it,” Yuehua Mavis ordered as she rushed toward the ground.

The Blaze Engineer and Zhu Tiezhu immediately followed after her.

Villa Mistress Lian used her Lotus Strike to trap the injured Corpse King before rus.h.i.+ng underground as well.

Sall Phoenix was the only person who didn’t follow. Instead, he turned to look at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin felt a chill crawl down his back as he turned around to directly look at Sall Phoenix .

Sall Phoenix smirked. “Young fellow, let me teach you how to speak to your seniors.” The Enlighter waved a hand, causing black flames to sweep towards Lu Yin.

Lu Yin put on his universal armor and his wrist guard, his expression instantly turning serious.

An extremely cold blast of wind froze the approaching flames as Yan Yan appeared in front of Lu Yin. “Retreat, Your Highness.”

Sall Phoenix smirked. “You’re going to die.”

The black Undying Bird crowed out as it flew towards Yan Yan.

Yan Yan’s eyes narrowed as his cold aura was burned away by the flames. The black Undying Bird flew past him and forced him down towards the ground as black flames ran rampant over his body.

Lu Yin leaped up and caught Yan Yan. He then used his Backlash Pearl to absorb the flames before redirecting them back towards the black Undying Bird.

Sall Phoenix was surprised by this move. “Young man, give me that power vessel that can absorb my attack.”

Lu Yin released Yan Yan and stored his Backlash Pearl away. “Old man, I’m going to kill you.”

Sall Phoenix laughed. “How dare you! My power level has reached 260,000 and you’ll never be able to withstand my attack. Your power vessel won’t be able to help you either.”

The black Undying Bird behind them then unfurled its wings as black flames covered the sky, causing Millions City to turn dark. The black Undying Bird instantly dove towards Lu Yin.

Lu Yin clenched a fist and flew up towards the black Undying Bird.

Sall Phoenix smiled darkly. “Just die.”

Lu Yin waved his left hand and used the Yu Secret Art to slightly redirect the black Undying Bird. He then raised his right fist and unleashed a punch at Sall Phoenix. His attack included the wristguard’s effect, and the physical power of his attack was doubled, which caused it to shatter s.p.a.ce around them.

The surrounding void erupted with a bang as a huge spatial crack spread out, reaching far into the distance and stunning countless nearby people.

Lu Yin’s expression turned grim, as his attack hadn’t landed on Sall Phoenix.

Black flames engulfed Lu Yin as Sall Phoenix reappeared. “Young man, you’ve underestimated me.”

Lu Yin opened his palm, and the Flash Tearbomb that he had been holding exploded, causing a blinding light to illuminate all of Millions City. Sall Phoenix involuntarily closed his eyes, and Lu Yin took advantage of that instance to attack again. However, Sall Phoenix quickly fell back, managing to fend off Lu Yin’s second attack as well. As an Enlighter, he had gained a huge amount of battle experience, and he was able to reflexively dodge enemy attacks.

However, Lu Yin had already expected Sall Phoenix to dodge his second strike. Thus, he had used the Daynight Punch this time.

The interchanging black and white colors were hidden by the Flash Tearbomb’s blinding light, and an overwhelming amount of spiritual force struck Sall Phoenix, dazing him and even causing him to start bleeding. An individual’s power level did not correspond to their spiritual force, and an Enlighter powerhouse who had never undergone any special training might not have as much spiritual force as a Daynight clan Hunter. Furthermore, Lu Yin’s spiritual force would be extraordinary even for a Daynight clan member.

Lu Yin’s punch nearly knocked Sall Phoenix unconscious, and the older man had to turn into a black Undying Bird to block Lu Yin’s attack.

Lu Yin was panting heavily. He wouldn’t have been able to injure Sall Phoenix without using the Daynight Punch.

Some distance away, Taylor Phoenix turned into a black Undying Bird; when he saw that Sall Phoenix was about to be defeated, he had decided to try to ambush Lu Yin.

However, Taylor Phoenix was nearly frozen through when ice crystals suddenly appeared on his body. An icy chill that was nearly comparable to Yan Yan’s descended upon the area, causing multiple layers of ice crystals to cover the sky and hold the black flames at bay.

Taylor Phoenix turned around in shock as Cool Sis appeared in front of him. “You’re the expert who’s ranked fourteenth on the Top 100 Rankings. Using an ambush is too despicable.”

Taylor Phoenix glared at Cool Sis in disbelief. “Why are you here?”

Cool Sis waved a hand, causing the surrounding ice crystals to vanish. Taylor Phoenix took advantage of this opportunity to attack, and his black Undying Bird collided against the remaining ice crystals. The two opposing elements of ice and fire resulted in a ma.s.sive amount of steam clouding everyone’s vision.

The spectators nearby hurriedly ran away.

Taylor Phoenix’s black Undying Bird was frozen by Cool Sis’s ice again, causing it to plummet toward the ground. Cool Sis then suddenly appeared in front of him as Taylor started s.h.i.+vering.

“Do you want to become an enemy of my Dark Phoenix family?” Taylor threatened.

Cool Sis slammed down with a palm. Taylor was much weaker than her, since the top ten of the Top 100 Rankings were on an entirely different level compared to those below them; Taylor would never be able to compare to a top ranker like Cool Sis. Taylor could only watch on as Cool Sis’s palm drew closer, and everything in his vision turned white as he felt an overwhelming sense of doom overtake him.

Suddenly, Taylor Phoenix was yanked away by an overpowering force, causing Cool Sis’s attack to miss. She coldly looked in front of her.

A man had appeared behind Taylor. He was Moore, a Western San Dios Councilor, as well as the person ranked twelfth on the Top 100 Rankings.

“Cool Sis, your attack doesn’t have to be so intense, does it?” Moore asked calmly. His body looked ethereal, and he almost appeared to be transparent.

There were rumors that Moore was the product of an experiment that had been conducted in the Outerverse and that he had only been successfully created by sacrificing an entire planet. He didn’t have a physical body, and he looked more like a phantom. Apparently, he was a product of the sacrifice of billions of lives, and he looked even more illusionary than Ghostfire.

Taylor stared at Cool Sis in fear, his limbs still stiff and frozen.

“Since I’m fighting, why wouldn’t I use my best efforts?” Cool Sis coldly replied.

Taylor bellowed, “How have I offended you?”

Cool Sis just ignored him.

Suddenly, the three youths’ expressions changed. Countless black flames fell down like comets as a powerful shockwave swept through the area, forcing all of them back while all of the buildings in the immediate area were instantaneously pulverized.

A deafening noise drew everyone’s attention.

Lu Yin’s attack had collided against Sall Phoenix’s black Undying Bird. With the help of his bracer, Lu Yin’s attack had risen to the same level as the black Undying Bird, which shocked everyone watching.

“That’s impossible!” Taylor exclaimed. He had heard rumors claiming that Lu Yin could kill Enlighters through the help of his various external items, but in his mind, it should have still been impossible for Lu Yin to withstand Sall Phoenix in a direct confrontation.

Everyone else was also stunned as they watched the two people in the sky face off against each other.

Numerous shreds of black flames fell down upon Millions City from the sky, and these flames were even more destructive than the aftershocks of the battle between the Enlighters and the Corpse King.

Cool Sis was also astounded; how could Lu Yin be so powerful? He was probably comparable to the top ten of the Top 100 Rankings, though it was highly unlikely that he would be able to defeat Avery, who was ranked fourth, let alone the top three geniuses in the rankings. Despite that, out of everyone within the younger generation, only those top three ranked individuals and the Ten Arbiters were able to fight against Enlighters. Did this mean that Lu Yin had also reached their level?

How much of his power had he concealed during his fight with her?

Lu Yin definitely wouldn’t be able to defeat Sall Phoenix head on, but he was able to withstand the Enlighter’s attacks with the help of his universal armor and wristguard. However, he was still relying on external items as he wasn’t able to do this on his own.

At most, Lu Yin could defend himself against Hunter powerhouses if he were relying solely on his battle techniques and secret technique. Enlighters were in an entirely different league.

Moore warily observed the battle between Sall Phoenix and Lu Yin. This Lu Yin was too scary; he was just an Explorer, but he had already attained such a monstrous level of strength. What would happen when this youth became a Cruiser, let alone a Hunter? At that time, only the Ten Arbiters would be able to fight against him! This youth was a true genius.

Sall Phoenix’s roar reverberated throughout all of Millions City. He would become the joke of the Dark Phoenix family if he couldn’t defeat this Lu Yin.

Another exciting battle had broken out some distance away, where Saul and Twin Daemons were battling against each other. Neither of them had attended the Qiong's Banquet.

Taylor glanced over at Moore. “Let’s fight her together.”

They then attacked Cool Sis as one.

Cool Sis wasn’t afraid. So long as a member of her generation hadn’t entered the top ten of the Top 100 Rankings, she was unconcerned.

There were battles breaking out all over Millions City,

Hoffman slowly stood up, as he had been badly injured by the Corpse King.

The Corpse King was still trapped by the Lotus Strike, unable to escape. As Hoffman gathered himself despite the excruciating pain, he slowly approached the Corpse King.

Beneath the Qiong family estate, Yuehua Mavis, the Blaze Engineer, Villa Mistress Lian, and Zhu Tiezhu had already found Qiong Xi’er, who was being held hostage by a powerhouse from the Specter Clan.

Yuehua Mavid ordered, “You, from the Specter Clan, release Qiong Xi’er.”

The Specter Clan expert calmly looked at the gathered Enlighters with his white eyes.

Yuehua Mavis quickly reminded everyone, “Don’t look at him. Otherwise, you might be controlled.”

“The Mavis clan will eventually need to pay, but let me collect some interest early today,” a cold voice rang out. The ground started trembling, and Yuehua Mavis and the rest instantly realized that hidden gears and machines were s.h.i.+fting about in the ground.

All of Millions City started to change, and the ground cracked open, as if something was about to appear.

Back in the estate, Qiong Shanhai’s eyes narrowed. Oh no, the mobile fortress is starting to appear. He wanted to rush underground, but his injuries were too severe, and he collapsed after only taking a few steps.

From an aerial viewpoint, the surface of Millions City was undergoing a huge transformation. An enormous cannon had emerged, causing the ground around the City Master’s estate to crumble away and open up vast fissures that many people fell into.

Lu Yin and Sall Phoenix paused their fight and watched on in awe as these events unfolded.

Everyone else also stopped to see what was happening.

n.o.body was more surprised than Lu Yin, as the rune lines surrounding Millions City were rapidly approaching those of Neo-Vestige Sect’s, and they had already far exceeded what he had seen on Elder Lohar and Northgate Taisui. If he were to compare then, the rune lines of Millions City were currently close to matching an Envoy’s who had a power level of 500,000.

Was this Millions City’s true form? Just what had happened underground?

Starfox, Wei Rong, Angie, and Ah Mu were together. Wei Rong’s expression turned grim, and he turned to Starfox. “We have to leave immediately.”

Starfox was frustrated. “I had heard that Millions City had its own secret, but I never expected that it would actually be an enormous fortress.”

“Stop thinking about that! Let’s go. Can Endless Borders get us away from here?” Angie asked anxiously.

Wei Rong frowned. “We have to get out of Millions City’s s.h.i.+eld first. Otherwise, no one will be able to take us away.”

He quickly checked their surroundings. “There must be a lot of people who want to leave, so we should all work together to escape.”
