Chapter 719 Holy Light Group Arrives!
A strand of pure high-intensity spiritual energy entered Fang Yu’s meridians through his right palm.
This feeling was exactly the same as when absorbing spiritual veins!
And the energy ball in front of him, only the size of a head, contained high-intensity spiritual energy equivalent to the total of eight spiritual veins!
Although those eight spiritual veins weren’t particularly large individually, their combined volume was the largest Fang Yu had ever encountered in his life!
“Though the environment here is harsh, it’s quiet, and no one can disturb me,” Fang Yu thought. “I might as well stay here for eight or ten days and completely absorb this energy ball.”
While Fang Yu was excited, the high-intensity spiritual energy absorbed into his body flowed through his meridians for one cycle before pouring into the dragon-phoenix fusion sphere.
At this moment, the small golden dragon and small fire phoenix suddenly stopped rotating, stood in place in their normal posture, and opened their mouths.
The spiritual energy entered directly into their mouths.
Simultaneously, Fang Yu felt warmth emanating from his dantian.
The high-intensity spiritual energy… was directly absorbed!
Previously, to absorb high-intensity spiritual energy from spiritual veins, he had to first channel the energy into his dantian, then spend considerable time refining it.
But this time, after circulating through his meridians once, the high-intensity spiritual energy directly converted into his cultivation power! The refining step was completely eliminated!
“What’s happening?”
Fang Yu, who had been focusing on circulating the Spirit Devouring Technique, was stunned and immediately looked inward.
Then, he saw the condition of the dragon and phoenix phantoms within his body.
“The high-intensity spiritual energy went directly into their mouths… could they be refining it for me?” Fang Yu’s eyes widened in surprise.
Honestly, even though he had absorbed the Dragon Essence and Phoenix Essence, these dragon and phoenix entities hadn’t maintained a strong presence.
Because Fang Yu himself wasn’t accustomed to using power beyond his physical body.
Not long ago, when fighting with Yi Duanliu, Fang Yu had tried to use the sacred power brought by the dragon.
That attempt made Fang Yu feel uncomfortable. It also made him realize that his fusion with the Dragon Essence wasn’t very high.
Now, besides the Dragon Essence, he also had the Phoenix Essence.
For fusion, this obviously increased the difficulty.
Although he possessed the essences of two divine beasts within his body, most of the time, Fang Yu could barely sense their existence.
But from today’s events, it seemed his fusion with them had improved somewhat during this period.
The layer of golden light that suddenly appeared on Fang Yu when fighting the Death Spirit King, which could block his aura… and now, the high-intensity spiritual energy being absorbed directly without needing refinement.
These… must be the effects of the dragon and phoenix essences.
“The spiritual energy is swallowed by them, yet converts into my cultivation power… it seems they’ve become one with me, and the fusion degree isn’t bad?” Fang Yu thought.
For these questions, Fang Yu could only explore the answers himself, as no one could tell him.
After all, someone possessing the essences of two divine beasts simultaneously was unique throughout history.
“Forget it for now.” Fang Yu put aside his doubts and focused on absorbing the spiritual energy from the energy ball before him.
Since high-intensity spiritual energy no longer needed refinement… the absorption speed could be further increased!
“I wonder if the Death Spirit King can sense this… would it expel me as waste?” Fang Yu’s lips curled into a mischievous smile.
…
Perhaps because the spiritual energy in the energy ball was so vast, Fang Yu’s extraction couldn’t be detected in the short term.
The Death Spirit King’s attention was fully on the group of people descending from the sky.
“The Holy Light Group?” the Death Spirit King said in a deep voice.
“Yes, Your Majesty. The Holy Light Group, which I mentioned before. They’re the ones who have eliminated numerous death spirits over these 400 years,” Gary said, his eyes gleaming.
“Perfect timing.” The Death Spirit King suddenly laughed, looking up at the sky. “Today, I will kill them all, announcing the return of the Death Spirit race!”
“You still think you can return? With our Holy Light Group here, you won’t leave Chimera Snow Plain alive today!”
A burly man in luxurious purple robes shouted.
He was one of the vice mid-level leaders of the Holy Light Group, Jorsen Heland, from the top-tier Heland family of the Western Region.
Jorsen wielded a heavy sword, emanating a fierce aura, and charged toward the Death Spirit King before even landing.
“Jorsen, don’t rush!” the white-robed man behind called out.
This man was named Bell Louis, from the Louis royal family, also a vice mid-level leader.
Although Bell had spoken to stop him, Jorsen ignored the warning and charged toward the Death Spirit King.
He prided himself as the strongest fighter in the Holy Light Group, having previously destroyed death spirits without much effort.
Therefore, he didn’t take the Death Spirit King before him seriously at all.
“You’ve been hiding for over twenty years! Today, I will deliver the most fatal blow with my Heland family’s Sword of Glory!” Jorsen shouted, holding the sword with both hands.
“Boom!”
His heavy sword ignited with bright flames.
Jorsen charged right up to the Death Spirit King, raised his heavy sword, and slashed directly at the Death Spirit King’s head!
At this moment, the Holy Light Group members slowly descending behind him, as well as Violet who was bound in mid-air, all widened their eyes.
The heavy sword was about to touch the Death Spirit King’s head, and the Death Spirit King seemed to have no chance to dodge!
“Bang!”
The next second, the heavy sword struck the Death Spirit King’s head.
“Good!”
Some Holy Light Group members instinctively cheered.
But two seconds later, their expressions changed.
When Jorsen’s sword struck, the Death Spirit King showed no reaction!
It just floated in mid-air, motionless.
Jorsen’s expression changed slightly. Gritting his teeth, he raised his heavy sword, intending to strike again.
“Jorsen, retreat immediately!” Bell shouted from behind.
But by then, it was too late.
“Bang!”
The Death Spirit King suddenly raised its right hand and gripped the blade of Jorsen’s heavy sword.
“Sword of Glory?” The Death Spirit King’s skeletal face showed no expression.
Jorsen let out an angry roar, using all his strength to try to pull the sword from the Death Spirit King’s grasp.
“Crack!”
But the next second, the Death Spirit King’s hand tightened, and the sword blade instantly shattered!
Seeing this, Jorsen’s face changed dramatically, his eyes wide open.
This was his Heland family’s heirloom sword, forged by a famous master swordsmith of the past using dozens of rare metal materials…
This sword was not just a weapon but represented the foundation and glory of the Heland family!
Jorsen brought this sword today to slay the last death spirit of the Death Spirit race, adding another glorious chapter to the Heland family’s honor!
He never dreamed that this sword… would be destroyed in such a manner!
“You…” Jorsen’s eyes turned red as he looked at the Death Spirit King.
At this moment, the Death Spirit King raised its hand again and grabbed Jorsen’s body.
“Ah…”
Jorsen tried to break free, but the more force he used, the stronger the hand’s grip became!
“Rescue Vice Leader Jorsen immediately!” Bell said with a grim expression.
“Yes!”
The Holy Light Group members who had just landed all charged toward the Death Spirit King.
Meanwhile, Bell took out a communicator and sent an emergency distress signal.
The current situation was more dangerous than he had initially anticipated.
They were no longer facing ordinary death spirits but a massive one that could even speak!
Jorsen’s strength was considered top-tier within the Holy Light Group.
Yet he had no chance to fight back against this special death spirit, and even his family’s heirloom sword was destroyed!
“Ah…”
Just as Bell sent the signal, more agonizing screams came from the front.
“Crack…”
Jorsen, gripped in the Death Spirit King’s hand, emitted crisp breaking sounds.
Jorsen’s face turned purple, flushed red, with bulging blood vessels.
“Splat!”
The next second, his head separated from his body, and the Death Spirit King’s hand was stained red with blood.
Seeing this, the Holy Light Group members who were charging toward the Death Spirit King all stopped in their tracks, looking at the black figure in the air with horror.
The smell of blood spread through the air.
