Chapter 391: The Shenzhia Dynasty
"A whale?"
"What kind of Celestial Beast is this?"
"As far as I know, among the whale-type Celestial Beasts, there's the Longfin Phantom Whale, Netherwhale Oblivion, Golden Horned Whale... but none of them seem to fit this one."
As soon as Song Chi summoned the Rule Dragon Whale, the guests below began to speculate on the origin of this fundamental secret technique.
However, no one hit the nail on the head.
It wasn't that the crowd lacked knowledge, as those who could attend this Flame Dragon Banquet were at least from forces with a Fifth Rank Battleship, and their vision wouldn't be that poor.
The main reason was that the number of Spine Tyrant Whales was far fewer than the other types of Celestial Beasts mentioned.
However, there were still some who recognized the Spine Tyrant Whale, including the elders on the high platform who had lived for thousands of years, and several heirs from top-tier forces among the younger generation.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the Leviathan Form from the Spine Tyrant Whale's legacy, right?"
Gary silently stared at the confrontation on the mechanical high platform, as Zhou Li's voice reached his ears.
As one of the top-tier forces in the Frandia Kingdom, the Zhen Dan Commerce Guild naturally had records of the Spine Tyrant Whale.
Upon hearing the words "Spine Tyrant Whale," Eliza, Christina, Kelin, and others nearby had their eyes lit up. As Zhou Li brought it up, the information they had about the Spine Tyrant Whale, which wasn't very deep, all appeared in their minds.
The Spine Tyrant Whale, one of the Celestial Beasts, strictly speaking, wasn't listed in the rankings of any attribute beasts. This was because it had extremely impressive talents in both spatial and light attributes.
Because of this, its name wasn't well-known among the various Celestial civilizations.
If one had to compare it with the Celestial Beasts on the rankings, it wouldn't be weaker than the top three beasts in the various attribute rankings.
"It turns out it's this kind of beast. I think there's also a force in our Frandia Kingdom that inherits the legacy of the Spine Tyrant Whale, but they only have a non-Dominator Spine Tyrant Whale, and they're not very famous."
On one side, Kelin murmured softly.
Soon, the lively Eliza also spoke up, "I remember hearing from my mother that the most renowned Spine Tyrant Whale legacy force in our Flame Human civilization is probably the Fuyao Pei Clan from the Shenzhia Dynasty. They have an Eighth Rank Flame Admiral, a Dominator-level force!"
"I wonder which family your friend, Fifth Uncle, is from?"
Eliza's words caused the people beside her to instantly focus their attention, awaiting Gary's response.
But Gary Frandee simply shook his head.
"Who knows? Not to mention the other four great empires and their dozens of kingdoms, even within the Shenzhia Dynasty, there's not just the Fuyao Pei Clan as a Spine Tyrant Whale legacy force."
"That's right. The Shenzhia Dynasty is the strongest of the four great empires of the Flame Humans. There are nearly forty kingdoms under its rule, and its territory spans nearly three billion light-years, with countless forces within."
As Eliza spoke of the Shenzhia Dynasty, her expression became solemn, no longer carefree as before.
Just then, the confrontation on the mechanical combat platform above suddenly changed.
The flame domain prototype summoned by Felix Vladimir, constructed from the Fire Law, had a significantly larger coverage area, occupying nearly sixty percent of the castle's great hall. However, when it collided with the spatial domain condensed by Song Chi, which only occupied forty percent of the area, it couldn't gain the upper hand and could only maintain a balance.
Felix was well aware that this was due to the uniqueness of the Spatial Law. Even though Song Chi's understanding of the Spatial Law wasn't as profound as Felix's Fire Law, he could still hold his ground.
Understanding this, both of them simultaneously decided to attack, choosing a more direct approach since it was difficult to determine a winner through the collision of laws.
Hiss! Roar!
The fire serpent and the dragon whale roared together, and the next second, the two illusory Principle Beings rushed out.
Sizzle...
The sound of the two laws colliding echoed throughout the castle's great hall. As the dragon whale and the fire serpent clashed, a violent energy shockwave surged out, centered on the point of contact between the two Principle Beings, and rapidly spread in all directions.
In an instant, the entire hall was surrounded by strong gusts of wind. Under the impact of the continuous energy waves, the Third Rank Flame Admirals felt their cheeks stung, and even the Second Rank Flame Admirals had blood marks appearing on their bodies.
It was hard to imagine that this was the battle disturbance caused by two Third Rank Flame Admirals without summoning their Flame Battleships.
Noticing this, the Michel family head waved his hand, and immediately four transparent energy light screens appeared around the outer ring of the mechanical combat high platform. With this energy barrier, the battle aftermath from the collision of Song Chi and Felix Vladimir's laws no longer affected the other guests in the hall.
As the two Principle Beings clashed, Song Chi and Felix, who were below them, were also fighting.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After three Life Ascensions, their enhanced constitutions made every collision of their bodies resonate with a dull sound.
Boom!
Their fists, enveloped in Ethereal Energy, clashed again, and both of them grunted and retreated several steps.
Felix's expression turned grave. Although he had never underestimated Song Chi, a member of the Radiance Star Tower, this brief physical confrontation further increased his respect for his opponent.
He never imagined that his proud constitution, capable of supporting twenty focuses of mind power, would gain no advantage in Song Chi's hands. Instead, he felt a sense of being suppressed.
With this thought, he no longer hesitated.
A faint glow appeared between his eyebrows, and the entire hall was filled with silver light. In the shocked gazes of the guests below, a long sword shimmering with silver light appeared in his hand.
It was no wonder that the guests were stunned. A silver legendary artifact weapon was enough to be a clan's foundation, even in a typical Sixth Rank force. It should have been traded through secret channels for other artifacts of the same rank that could be converted into starship components.
Only an ancient and noble family like the Vladimirs, with a legacy spanning tens of thousands of years, could provide such a high-ranked artifact as a weapon for their heir.
In an instant, the situation on the platform changed, and all the guests turned their attention to Song Chi.
A silver legendary artifact weapon was enough to determine the outcome of this duel. If Song Chi couldn't produce a weapon of the same rank...
Song Chi didn't keep everyone waiting. Soon, a faint glow appeared between his eyebrows, and a brilliant silver light shone for the second time in the castle's great hall.
That Silver Dragon Spear
Summoned forth, the Silver Dragon Spear's appearance elicited even more enthusiastic cheers from the Great Hall.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The clash of blade and spear echoed, and the long blade in Felix's hand was enveloped in Flame Law, while the Silver Dragon Spear in Song Chi's hand was covered in Spatial Law, and with the additional empowerment of a peak Third Rank Ethereal Energy, the energy intensity of their clash even reached the Fourth Rank.
Suddenly, the two on the mechanical platform seemed to share a telepathic connection, and after the long blade and silver spear collided again, they both retreated at extreme speed.
"At this rate, who knows how long we'll be fighting. How about we settle this with one decisive move?"
Across from him, Felix spoke first.
There was no need for Song Chi to respond. As soon as Felix finished speaking, flames rose around him, and these orange-red flames quickly converged, finally transforming into numerous tiny Fire Tuft Serpent shadows.
On the platform, the older generation of Flame Ship Captains immediately recognized this move.
"This is... Fire Tuft Boil Sea? Even mastering this secret art, Medici, your Vladimir family has produced another little monster!"
Fire Tuft Boil Sea, a high-level secret art of the Vladimir family, was awe-inspiring in its power. When mastered, a single strike could incinerate the heavens and boil the sea.
Hearing this, Medici merely smiled and remained silent.
Looking at Song Chi on the mechanical combat platform, upon seeing his opponent activate an unknown attack, he reacted swiftly. The Silver Dragon Spear in his hand rose, and at its tip, a sharp Netherwhale Beam rapidly converged.
In a short time, the countless mini Fire Tuft Serpents suddenly exploded, and the flame energy in the entire castle's Great Hall sky soared several times. Under this, the Spatial Law domain enveloping the Rule Dragon Whale could no longer resist and was completely suppressed by the flame domain of the Fire Tuft Serpent.
The infinite sea of fire resembled a fiery heaven, surging down towards Song Chi below.
Even after suppressing the Rule Dragon Whale, the Fire Tuft Serpent's eyes above sank, and it suddenly fixed its gaze on Song Chi's true body below.
If it were anyone else, they would have been affected by this gaze, at the very least falling into a daze for a short time, but with the empowerment of Double Pupil, Song Chi only felt a slight tingling sensation in his mind, and then there was no further impact.
Facing the overwhelming sea of fire above, he didn't have time to think too much. He swung the Silver Dragon Spear forward at a 180-degree angle.
Swish!
The ultimate Netherwhale Beam suddenly tore through the sea of fire, charging straight towards Felix Vladimir at the center of the fiery heaven.
Felix's face paled in shock, as he could sense the terrifying annihilation power from this Netherwhale Beam.
"Fire Tuft Boil Sea, suppress him!"
As his thoughts turned, the infinite sea of fire stopped spreading towards Song Chi and rapidly condensed, transforming into countless Fire Tuft Serpents rushing towards the Netherwhale Beam that had charged into the fire.
One by one, the mini Fire Tuft Serpents were annihilated, and under the relentless blocking of these Fire Tuft Serpents, the Netherwhale Beam gradually lost its power and completely dissipated when it was still dozens of meters away from Felix.
"Again!"
Across the sea of fire, Song Chi's eyes flashed with rapidly circulating Principle power, and the Silver Dragon Spear in his hand rose again, a second Netherwhale Beam converging at its tip.
Across from him, Felix did the same.
This was the advantage of secret arts. As long as one's own body and the Principle power they controlled could withstand it, the secret art could be used infinitely, without the need for buffering like warship components.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Spatial fluctuations appeared, and although the means of convergence were the same, this time Song Chi chose a completely different attack method.
After the second Netherwhale Beam was gathered, the remaining Spatial Law power circulated around him, enveloping his body as he vanished into the void, leaving only an afterimage in its place.
Having entered the flame domain, Song Chi's flash retreat effect was significantly weakened, greatly affecting his flash strike tactics. Taking advantage of this gap, Felix once again gathered numerous Fire Tuft Serpents.
These countless mini Fire Tuft Serpents converged between the two, intending to block Song Chi's approach.
At the same time, Song Chi also felt the terrifying scorching power transmitted through the surrounding air. Under this intense baking, his entire body turned red, and his skin felt unbearably hot, a sign that his flesh could not withstand this relentless roasting.
In contrast, Felix Vladimir's lips curled upward in a smile, as Song Chi's proactive approach gave him the opportunity for a decisive strike.
Under his control, the Fire Tuft Serpent that had completely suppressed the Rule Dragon Whale suddenly dissipated, and the next second, the flame power that had spread from the Fire Tuft Serpent's shadow collectively descended, instantly merging into the countless mini Fire Tuft Serpents gathered by the Fire Tuft Boil Sea secret art.
At this moment, the air in the entire castle's Great Hall seemed to boil, as countless raging Fire Tuft Serpents roared and charged towards the void where Song Chi had vanished.
One could imagine that if these raging Fire Tuft Serpents were allowed to collectively self-destruct nearby, even though Song Chi had already entered the void, he would undoubtedly be heavily injured.
Just as everyone thought the outcome of this battle was about to be decided, a spatial rift suddenly appeared in the boundless heat wave above the Great Hall, and strands of starlight projected out from the rift.
In the next instant, this rift was infinitely magnified until a mini star revealed its silhouette.
Radiance Star Arrival!
Below, Gary Frandee smiled and exclaimed these four words.
And for Zhou Li and the others, who were no strangers to the Radiance Star Tower's ultimate secret art, their hearts were equally thrilled.
With this, adding the Leviathan Form and the previous Netherwhale Beam secret art, Song Chi had already displayed three secret arts. Even if he ultimately lost this match, no one would say anything about it.
On the mechanical platform, as the Radiance Star projection appeared, limited by the scattered starlight, the speed of the numerous raging Fire Tuft Serpents' shots abruptly slowed, and the aura of Song Chi, who had hidden in the void, suddenly rose.
With this addition and subtraction, Song Chi's flash retreat speed suddenly surged, and he dodged all the mini Fire Tuft Serpents with an incredible flash retreat speed.
Swish!
By the time everyone in the Great Hall could see the situation on the field again, Song Chi, holding the Silver Dragon Spear, was already standing before Felix, and the tip of the Silver Dragon Spear was only a few dozen centimeters away from Felix's neck. The faint Netherwhale Beam at its tip almost completely severed Felix's head.
However, he ultimately knew his limits and did not truly strike a fatal blow, stopping at the last moment.
"Good!"
"Radiance, Radiance!"
...
Below, in the Great Hall, enthusiastic cheers had already erupted.
However, the guests didn't know that at this moment, Song Chi's entire body was enveloped by an indescribable mighty power.
Although he hadn't intended to kill, this mysterious, overwhelming pressure had descended upon him first, making his body difficult to move.
