Chapter 725: Great Battle with the Duke!
Seeing Murray’s entire body enveloped by blue lightning.
At this moment, streaks of electric patterns appeared on his face, his eyes glowing blue, resembling a deity who controls thunder and lightning in Western mythology, with an imposing aura.
In an instant, the area where he and Fang Yu stood was filled with thunder and lightning.
Even from a distance, one could feel waves of powerful energy bursting forth, extremely terrifying.
The Duke is about to make his move!
The more than thirty surviving members of the Holy Light Group watched the lightning-wrapped figure in shock.
Most of them had rarely seen a Duke in person, let alone witnessing one in action!
After all, given a Duke’s absolute status, there was hardly anything in the entire Western Region worth their personal intervention.
“This Duke Murray… he can actually use lightning?” someone asked in surprise.
“You don’t know that? The Angel Church bestowed eight different elemental powers upon the eight Dukes. And Duke Murray received the lightning element,” said a man beside him whose face was half covered with a golden beard.
“Eight elements… where did eight elements come from? Aren’t there only four elements: earth, air, water, and fire?” another person asked confusedly, “Big Beard, tell us about it.”
“The four elements theory is from long ago. Haven’t you all read the Angel Church doctrines? There’s an explanation about the eight elements in there.” The man called Big Beard frowned, glancing at the two people beside him, and said, “The eight elements, besides the original four, also include lightning, light, metal, and soul.”
“The eight elements were bestowed upon the eight Dukes.”
“Of the two Dukes who arrived with Duke Murray, Duke Drachi possesses the earth element, and Duke White possesses the metal element.”
“I see, then…” A person beside him nodded, wanting to ask more.
“Boom!”
But at this moment, the battle ahead had already begun.
Murray spread his hands, gathering a large mass of lightning, then suddenly brought them together.
Two clusters of blue lightning power, after merging, suddenly erupted with an even more powerful aura, transforming into purple lightning, the entire beam blasting toward Fang Yu.
“Divine Suppression Seal.”
Fang Yu silently recited the incantation, extending his left palm directly facing the incoming purple lightning.
Silver light rippled before his left palm, condensing into a complex, semi-transparent seal.
“Rumble…”
The purple lightning struck the seal, producing a tremendous sound as the ground shook violently.
Fang Yu remained standing in place, the seal before his left hand remaining intact.
But the ground behind him had been blasted into a large trench!
The group of Holy Light members watching from behind were also scattered by this aftershock.
Seeing Fang Yu withstand this attack without injury, not even taking a step back, Murray’s heart trembled slightly.
Drachi and White, who had retreated over fifty seconds away, exchanged glances, their eyes filled with surprise.
Although Murray’s attack was just a test with moderate power, the fact that Fang Yu could so easily receive it still far exceeded their expectations.
Could it be… that this man named Fang Yu, who looked extremely young, was truly as powerful as Bell had said?
“Let’s continue watching. Murray’s strength is far beyond this,” Drachi smiled.
White nodded.
…
“Divine Suppression Seal, an exceptional technique from the first-rank sect, White Crane Sect. The White Crane Sect is renowned for its defensive spells and achieved first-rank status through this specialty,” Fang Yu lowered his left hand, and the seal before his palm slowly dissipated. “The defense is indeed strong, and it seems to be able to decompose force… If I had used this technique against the Lich King earlier… would I have been able to block that suction force?”
“Indeed. If you couldn’t handle that attack just now, you wouldn’t have been able to kill the Lich, let alone the Lich King and Garry,” Murray spoke from ahead.
“If you don’t want to have regrets, then quickly use your full strength,” Fang Yu said indifferently. “Otherwise, once I make my move, you won’t have a chance to perform.”
Except for Bai Ran, everyone present thought Fang Yu’s words were extremely arrogant!
Even if he truly possessed impressive strength, he shouldn’t be so brazen!
Standing before him was one of the eight most powerful figures in the Western Region, second only to the Angel Church!
Originally, Fang Yu might have had a chance to leave the Western Region alive.
But after saying these words, that possibility no longer existed!
He had thoroughly offended Duke Murray, and since Murray was an honorary mid-level leader of the Holy Light Group, they would naturally stand with Murray.
As for other forces in the Western Region, there was even less to say.
No one dared to stand in opposition to a Duke!
“Sigh…”
Bell, who had been caught up in Murray’s sudden aggression, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and sighed heavily.
The situation he feared most had still occurred.
Fang Yu’s defeat of the Lich King and saving many Holy Light Group members was originally a good thing, even worthy of reward.
But with the situation developing as it has… forget rewards, Fang Yu might become the second Garry! Viewed as a common enemy by the entire Western Region!
After hearing Fang Yu’s words, Murray laughed in extreme anger.
“Hahaha… I truly miss this feeling,” Murray laughed. “Since I became a Duke, no one has dared to speak to me like this. You’re the first!”
“But, you will also be the last.”
As he finished speaking, the smile on Murray’s face suddenly disappeared, and killing intent erupted from his body.
“Boom!”
Powerful lightning energy burst from Murray’s body, shooting straight to the clouds.
The flashes of lightning appearing around Murray suddenly grew larger, gradually changing from blue to purple.
Murray let out a roar from his throat and thrust his hands forward.
“Boom!”
In his hands, lightning flashed, condensing into a giant blade as thick as a tree trunk!
Lightning Greatsword!
Murray gripped the sword hilt with both hands and brought it down on Fang Yu before him!
Viewed from a distance, this scene was extremely shocking!
Facing the lightning greatsword, Fang Yu’s entire person seemed incredibly small, with nowhere to escape!
“Murray’s control over the lightning element has reached a very high level,” Drachi commented from behind.
White didn’t speak, his gaze locked on Fang Yu.
Facing the descending lightning greatsword, Fang Yu stood in place and raised his right hand.
“Since you’re using a weapon, I might as well use one too.”
“You should have let me out earlier, Master,” the weapon spirit’s voice sounded in Fang Yu’s ear.
Then, white light flickered in Fang Yu’s right palm.
The outline of a long halberd appeared in his right hand.
Heavenly Dome Sacred Halberd!
“Bang!”
Fang Yu gripped tightly with his right hand, and the Heavenly Dome Sacred Halberd immediately erupted with a heart-pounding aura.
By now, the greatsword containing endless lightning power had reached above Fang Yu’s head.
In the next second, the greatsword was about to touch Fang Yu!
Fang Yu raised the Heavenly Dome Sacred Halberd, blocking it above his head.
“Boom!”
The massive lightning greatsword struck the shaft of the Heavenly Dome Sacred Halberd.
The force of this strike caused the ground beneath Fang Yu’s feet to collapse with a rumble!
At the same time, the lightning power within the greatsword fully erupted, instantly enveloping Fang Yu!
“Crackle!”
In the eyes of those around, Fang Yu’s entire person was swallowed by purple lightning.
Judging by the continuously exploding ground… the power of the lightning was not something a human body could resist.
It’s over!
Many people had this thought.
In their view, Fang Yu had been blasted to ashes.
But this thought had barely existed for a second.
“Boom!”
The ground where Fang Yu stood suddenly erupted with a deafening sound!
A silver light rose, and when everyone looked closely, they saw Fang Yu’s figure encased within a silver light shield!
This shield wasn’t formed from true energy, but by the rapidly spinning Heavenly Dome Sacred Halberd in Fang Yu’s hand!
The rapidly rotating Heavenly Dome Sacred Halberd had formed the most solid shield!
The violent lightning power was forcibly intercepted and pushed upward.
Fang Yu pushed the descending lightning greatsword directly back into the sky!
This scene left everyone around with their mouths open, completely stunned.
How could it be possible… to achieve this level!?
Fang Yu rose into the air, gripped the Heavenly Dome Sacred Halberd tightly and pushed hard…
“Bang!”
The lightning greatsword was pushed back, and Murray below couldn’t resist this tremendous force, retreating continuously.
“So-called Duke, nothing more than this. To deal with you, I don’t even need a weapon.” Fang Yu smiled coldly, releasing his grip on the Heavenly Dome Sacred Halberd, and diving toward Murray below with his bare hands!
