Chapter 99 Fighting Against Shadows

Gulp!

All of them swallowed their saliva at the same time, thinking ‘How the fuck are we supposed to fight them?’

At this moment, there were nearly thousands of shadowy figures. Each figure had a different shape and size. But, they all had one thing in common.

Shadows! They were basically shadows but each had a drastically powerful aura.

Fu Chen instantly gazed upon their strength.

“They are only at the True Essence Realm. Let’s go all out to defeat them.”

“Alright!” Chu Yan and Wu Kong shouted at the same time as their true essence burst out.

Su Ling also released her true essence and transformed into a giant bow of flames. Her power of elemental was massively strong. As a spirit, it wasn’t surprising.

As they made their moves, the shadows in front of them rushed toward them as well. Each had had its weapon made out of the shadow. And, at the same time, Fu Chen also moved forward.

His sword released a massive chunk of sword energy that transformed his surrounding into the beautiful sakura tree. The giant tree dropped a lot of sakura petals which revolved around his sword.

When Fu Chen moved between the leaves, it looked like he was dancing.

Su Ling who caught the glimpse of his movement didn’t see his sword slashing those shadows but only saw his body dancing under the falling sakura.

‘So cool’_.

Her heart vibrated as if she had just received a notification. She couldn’t help but slightly blush. But at the same time, nearly ten shadows disappeared alongside the sakura tree.

“Thirteen Lonely Peach Blooming Sword Art”

Fu Chen stopped his movement as he removed himself from being surrounded by the shadows. He closed his eyes for a moment and released his true essence. The blue true essence changed into red and transformed into flames that covered his sword.

“Fire Drawing Sword Art”

“Fire Dragon Storm!”

With a single swing of his body, his sword released a massive wave of flames. The flames transformed into the eastern dragon as it covered him with its body.

The shadows that touched the dragon’s body got burned to nothingness. But, suddenly one of the shadows opened its mouth and a stream of ice came out of his mouth, freezing the fire itself.

“Roaring Tiger Fourth Stance- Ultimate Red Beast”

Crack! Crack! Bang!

A few seconds later, the ice got broken into pieces. Fu Chen came out of it but his form was different. He was covered in the red tiger armor. It was magnificent.

Holding the sword in his hand and covered with armor, Fu Che instantly used his chance to fight against the shadows.

On other hand,

Wu Kong transformed into the golden ape and started smashing those shadows with his rod but the more he smashed, the more stamina he lost. But, the number of shadows just didn’t get smaller.

“Alright, you bastards! Let this grandpa show you a trick!”

“Wu Kong’s Rod Smashing the Arhat”

Wu Kong jumped and raised his rod. He infused an immense amount of true essence into his rod and the size of the rod grew by nearly twenty times as he smashed it against the shadows on the ground.

Bang!

Crack! Crack!

The ground itself got cracked open by his attack. Those shadows were smashed so hard that they probably felt it even in the deepest part of their shadows.

Seeing his attack and hearing the name of his attack, Su Ling’s twitched her lips and looked at Chu Yan.

“Can’t you do anything about his naming sense? It feels so perverted.”

Chu Yan shook his head and said “I can’t do anything about it. His bloodline is influencing him even more and slowly the way he speaks also started to change.”

“His ancestor must be one of hell of a pervert.” Su Ling muttered but her eyes quickly regained vigilance. She turned around as her hand released dozens of lightning bolts.

She merged the lightning bolts into a single attack and jumped. The lightning covered her hand and chopped down.

“Lightning Release- One Hand Chop”

Her hand released a blade formed out of the lightning. It struck those shadows and extinguished them but, she didn’t stop there. Seeing the more shadows gathering below her, she infused her second hand with land and released the barrage of lightning chops.

“Lightning Release- Multiple Chops!”

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

“She certainly is versatile with her attacks. Fire, Water, Lightning, Earth, Wind. She can almost control all of these elements. As expected of a spirit!”

Chu Yan looked at her and murmured. But, his head turned around when he saw a few shadows coming toward him.

These shadows were quite literally different than other shadows. While most of the shadows were taking the humanoid shape, all of the shadows rushing toward him were monster beasts.

“Forcing me to fight against my ancestor. This is too much.”

Chu Yan’s eyes blazed with anger but he quickly calmed down. He knew these shadows were simply following the orders. He quickly gathered the true essence around him and roared.

“Bloodline Ability- Wolf God Incarnation”

At this moment, the giant phantom of the wolf appeared above him. When it appeared, the Wolf God stared at those monsters and roared. That roar alone contained the amount of true essence that Fu Chen uses on his normal attacks.

Infused with the power of Wolf God himself, the roar destroyed those shadows into nothingness.

The battle continued with all four of them using every attack in their arsenal to fight against these shadows but the number of shadows just kept growing.

It didn’t end at all. This made everyone even more serious. At this moment, Chu Yan shouted.

“Chen! These won’t stop no matter how much you kill. The only way to stop them should be the Origin Pond. You need to take the Origin Pond soon. Find it and take it. We will hold back these shadows till then.”

Hearing his words, Fu Chen nodded his head. He put back his sword and opened his Infinite Eyes. At this moment, several shadows rushed toward defenseless Fu Chen but three of them covered him instantly.

Chu Yan was still using the Wolf God Incarnation. Wu Kong was still in his Golden Ape form. And, Su Ling was using the armor made out of five different elements at once.

At this moment, they were fighting with their full strength. Fu Chen was constantly looking around with his Infinite Eyes trying to find the Origin Pond.

He looked around, everywhere but he couldn’t find an exact source at all. At this moment, a lot of different thoughts appeared in his mind.

‘Origin Pond was supposedly a powerful reserve of Spiritual Liquid. That means it can be located by my eyes. But now, that I am not finding it means only one thing.’

‘Something is blocking. What could it be? There is nothing else to block it except Death Law. But Death Law won’t come out of anywhere, right? There must be something that released the Death Law into the Origin Pond and used its power to influence the entire pond.’

‘Hmmm….. There is only one clue to finding the source. That would be shadows. If I am not wrong, these shadows are created with the power of the Death Law. That means something that is covering Origin Pond is related to these shadows.’

‘I can’t use these eyes for long so I have to act now.’

Fu Chen instantly turned around and rushed out. He quickly caught one of the shadows without killing it and returned inside the blockade. He released the purple light and instructed his eyes to devour this shadow.

The purple light covered the shadow and slowly, it started disintegrating the shadow into small pierces. Slowly, the purple light returned to his eyes. Now, a new piece of information appeared in his mind.

[Shadow Energy- It can be used to control the power of the shadow, see through the shadow, live into the shadow, and turn into a shadow.]

At this moment, he activated his eyes once again but this time, there were some differences. He found he could see a small source of energy in each shadow. And, whenever his teammates kill these shadows, they regenerate from these sources.

He didn’t think too much about it and started searching around. Only at this moment, does he find a giant dome in the middle of this area. And, they were very close to it.

There were also a lot of shadows. He finally understood what was happening here.

“Chu Yan, Wu Kong, Su Ling, kill all the shadows at 2 O’clock.” Fu Chen ordered as he took the step forward and started using his sword once again. They destroyed the shadows in their directions until they reached the designated place.

At this moment, Fu Chen infused a lot of true essence in his hand while activating the Ultimate Red Beast. He clenched his fingers, forming a fist, and smashed the ground below him.

Bang! Crack! Crack! Crack! Fswoosh!

At this moment, a purple gas came out from the ground. This purple gas was so powerful that as soon as it could Fu Chen’s skin, it started corroding him. The skin slowly turned red as it felt like he was thrown into magma.

“Damn it! You are not killing me here.”

“Infinite Eyes- Devour!”

……….

I am sorry for one month break. I will try to upload one chapter a day. And, if this book gets back on track, I will slowly increase the uploads.
