Chapter 790: The Dominance of Law
Chapter 790: The Dominance of Law
The Feathered Serpent, once defeated by the Righteous One of the City of Law, was then sealed by Clearsky in the Dust Path World.
Unsurprisingly, this creature holds a grudge against the Righteous One of the City of Law.
And the Law Paladin, the most loyal profession to the Righteous One.
Understanding this cause and effect, the current situation becomes apparent.
After entering a state of temporal chaos, the Feathered Serpent descends into this era, coincidentally encountering the ancestor of the Law Paladin.
Without hesitation, they engage in combat.
This leads to the scene Lin Sai now witnesses.
"..."
"What started as a thrilling adventure across the world has now turned into an exploration and discovery mission?"
Lin Sai feels a bit helpless.
He has always had complex feelings towards Awakened like the Law Paladin.
So it's impossible for him to claim that he isn't curious about the initial development of such a profession.
"Moreover, meeting this individual is a piece of good news."
"By defeating the Feathered Serpent, I can gain more detailed information about the Law Paladin from his own mouth. After reaching the City of Law, this knowledge will undoubtedly prove useful."
Lin Sai maintains his stealth, continuing his approach.
With his astonishing perception and eyesight, he quickly spots the Awakened battling the Feathered Serpent.
"Ah?"
The result is somewhat unexpected.
The one fighting the Feathered Serpent is not someone like Kang Song, a middle-aged man with a steady demeanor, but a boy brimming with a passionate smile.
Even in the midst of a life-and-death struggle with an enemy, he doesn't forget to flash a smile during the fight.
The boy's voice, carried by a gentle breeze, reaches Lin Sai's ears:
"Hahaha! Fascinating serpent!"
"Possessing both the techniques of a beast and an Awakened, how marvelous!"
"Accepting Ben's invitation to come here was indeed the best choice."
"Hey—serpent, if you surrender right now, I'll spare your life. Otherwise, become a soul under my rule technique!"
The ancestor of the Law Paladin, like the Feathered Serpent, is at the Seventh Stage.
However, his control over his body, essence, and techniques is terrifyingly precise.
Lin Sai observes from a distance.
The way he fights, as if every ability is something he has meticulously explored and mastered himself!
"And he possesses Life Essence as well."
Lin Sai notices a feature on the boy that piques his interest.
It's the essence of life within the essence.
Like Lin Sai, the boy is also a possessor of Life Essence.
"So, this appearance is merely the result of his essence, and his true age is likely much older than he appears."
Lin Sai gradually approaches the battlefield.
After a quarter of an hour, he finds himself within the combat zone of the Feathered Serpent and the boy.
At this point, maintaining stealth and getting closer becomes extremely challenging. Lin Sai draws his bow and arrow, aiming at the Feathered Serpent in the air using the skills of the FPS module.
In the first second, the reticle appears.
In the second second, the predictive skill begins calculating the Feathered Serpent's flight trajectory.
With a simple gesture, Lin Sai confirms that his arrow will undoubtedly hit the target!
"This distance is perfect."
"Now, I just need to wait for the most opportune moment to strike."
Skilled hunters often refrain from rushing their attacks.
Lin Sai draws his bow, notches an arrow, and silently observes the ongoing battle between the boy and the Feathered Serpent.
The techniques of the boy and the Feathered Serpent rage around Lin Sai.
Any unexpected event could result in Lin Sai, a Fifth Stage Awakened, being severely injured or even torn apart by their power!
Lin Sai's arms and gaze remain steady, unmoved by the surrounding dangers.
He stands firm in the midst of the crisis, patiently awaiting the perfect moment to strike.
Meanwhile, the injured Feathered Serpent roars in the air:
"Law Paladin! Lackey of the Righteous One!"
The boy smiles nonchalantly:
"Look at you—what a harsh thing to say."
"I accepted Ben's invitation and came to cooperate with him - our relationship is equal. And you mention the Law Paladin, to be honest, I'd rather name the technique I created as the Law Dominator!"
As his words fell, the young man leaped high into the air and struck down with his sword.
In the moment he attacked, the laws of space were anchored in place. Even the Feathered Serpent, with its enormous body and terrifying power, couldn't escape the opponent's spatially anchored sword!
With a slashing sound, the sword tore open a gash on the serpent's abdomen.
The Feathered Serpent then bled profusely, staining the grassland beneath it a deep black and emitting an ominous aura.
The young man dodged the falling blood:
"Moreover, I was just wondering, why is your blood black?"
The Feathered Serpent let out a mournful cry.
After being struck by the sword, it immediately flew into the sky, attempting to escape the young man's attack range.
The young man was shocked:
"Hey! You're running away now?"
"You initiated the attack, and now that you're losing, you want to escape?"
The Feathered Serpent in the air ignored the young man, fleeing at full speed.
However, this straight and stable escape trajectory made it an easy target for shooting a moving target.
In the silent air, Lin Sai's 【Mythic Arrow】was released without a sound.
With the assistance of 【Silent Blade】, the supersonic arrow flew towards the Feathered Serpent without making a noise.
The 【Mythic Arrow】struck the Feathered Serpent's abdomen.
Unlike the 【Dragon Hunting Black Arrow】, this arrow reacted with the serpent's divine power upon contact.
The physical flesh turned into nothingness, and the divine essence became the reality.
The 【Mythic Arrow】pierced through the Feathered Serpent's body and became embedded in its divine concept.
A roar of confusion and astonishment echoed through the sky.
The 【Mythic Arrow】functioned as described, beginning to modify the Feathered Serpent's divine concept.
Its original faith-based abilities, divine core, and power were all twisted and distorted, becoming the opposite of their original state, and then collided violently within its body!
Lin Sai watched the sky.
With his keen perception, he could certainly determine the Feathered Serpent's state was rapidly deteriorating. However, there was also an ominous phenomenon above.
That was the Feathered Serpent's power as a monster.
The divine concept had been rewritten and destroyed by the 【Mythic Arrow】, but the Feathered Serpent had a different essence than a normal Awakened being who became a deity.
It still possessed the essence of a monster, the power of a Seventh Stage beast, which had not been destroyed by the 【Mythic Arrow】. Therefore, the Feathered Serpent continued to struggle in the air!
Lin Sai was extremely satisfied with the result of his sneak attack:
"Good!"
"Waiting for an opportunity was indeed the right choice!"
"Now, when dealing with a legendary creature, the best option is to attack its soul with the 【Extinction Blade】."
Lin Sai activated his 【Freedom Seal】.
But just as he was about to fly into the air and pursue the struggling Feathered Serpent, a power of law blocked his path.
The young man, who had just been entangled with the Feathered Serpent, smiled at Lin Sai:
"I didn't expect this."
"In this rural area, we'd have so many guests today."
"And you... have the aura of 【Divine Realm】and the flavor of 【Seven Star Federation】, and even the chaotic law aura like that thing above... What kind of person are you, with such a strange aura?"
