Chapter 1525: Disorienting Holy Hymn

The Immortal King's substitute blocked the blow with his halberd in an explosion of the void. The sword energy caused even the stars to explode.

Sword and halberd met in a spray of silver light. Even the bones of the two combatants' fingers began to crack.

Ruby-red blood dripped down the halberd and onto the altar.

Li Feng raised his sword high into the air. Light-attuned genetic energy gathered around it, invoking the stars. Holy hymns echoed around him, and the concentrated energy manifested as outspread wings to his back.

However, there wasn't much light-attuned genetic energy in the void, and Li Feng's wings seemed a little ethereal.

He seemed to be right beside his opponent, but simultaneously a world apart—in a dimension beyond.

Spatial manipulation!

A hundred dragons wrapped around Li Feng's sword in a cavalcade of light that illuminated the altar. The man in dark green robes and Radiant Sun frowned as they shielded themselves from the light.

"[Manifold Gates of Heaven]!"

Radiant white light exploded from the point of impact, the holy light of heaven. Li Feng's sword slashed apart the gates, unleashing concentrated light.

The Immortal King's substitute rushed into the air with his halberd, slashing down vertically and causing the void to shudder. Energy of annihilation rose into the air and erupted.

The energy that the Immortal King's substitute possessed was shocking in its density and scope. The spectators found chills running down their backs, as though the apocalypse was nigh.

"[The Boundless Blade: Heaven's Gate]!"

Li Feng struck with his sword. A river of holy light seemed to trail behind him, and arclight dragons could be seen amidst the light. The source of the river was a pair of ornate doors. As those doors opened up, countless arclight dragons poured out from behind the doors, forming a concentrated river of light.

Suddenly, with a flash, that white light was bisected.

Countless whirlwinds of sword energy were manifesting before him. The holy dragons that had been summoned in a dense horde were obliterated in bursts of white light.

The white light shot out all around like sharp blades. Millions of holy dragons transformed into millions of blades, more concentrated than even raindrops in a storm.

The Immortal King's substitute blocked the blow with his halberd in an explosion of the void, defending against the millions of arclight dragons that Li Feng sent his way.

"[The Boundless Blade: Heaven's Gate]!"

Silvery-white genetic energy burst forth as Li Feng raised the sword in his hand high into the air, as though a god were descending on the world.

The entire sky was overshadowed by a silvery-white glow that faced off against the golden light.

Holy hymns began to ring through the air.

Zhang Lie and the other members of Team Zenith smiled.

Their opponents, Feng Xian, Qingyue Ge, the cultivator with the golden lamp—none of them knew why the hunters were suddenly smiling.

The next moment, they all blanched.

The hymns seemed to pierce straight through their souls. They suddenly felt as though they were at ease, as though there was no strife with which to concern themselves.

The cultivators hesitated to strike, but the members of Team Zenith were prepared. They had all fought Li Feng before and were familiar with his techniques. Upon hearing the familiar hymns, they were immediately on guard.

Indeed, their opponents were temporarily taken aback by the mental attack. Even Leiting Ya, shot through with lightning, and Feng Xian, glorious and majestic, both paused what they were doing.

Only one cultivator besides the members of Team Zenith was prepared for this: someone who understood Li Feng well and had fought against him in the past, the Immortal King's substitute.

He had been prepared to counteract the holy hymn.

However, Li Feng's attack gave the other members of Team Zenith a chance to take the upper hand. They struck simultaneously.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade]!"

Zhang Lie punched forward. The black serpent behind him shot forth.

With a low shout, Fang Yi dashed forward with his spear in hand.

The spear was imbued with gold-attuned lightning that dyed its haft a resplendent gold. Wind formed sharp blades around the spear, imbuing it with energy.

Fang Yi launched his spear, crackling with wind and lightning, with incredible force.

The black spear sent wind howling and lightning flashing through the sky.

With his spear, he invoked chaotic energy in the form of lightning and raging wind. The spear left a dozen afterimages in its wake.

"[Avatar of the Fae: Earthbound Prison]!"

She released all her stored vitality at once, causing the ground to quake as thousands of jade-green wood dragons rushed out of the earth. Each dragon was about six hundred meters wide, with skin flecked with golden radiance.

"[The Boundless Blade: Ersatz Yawning Wave]!"

A sword flashed, the strike forming a long river through the skies. The genetic energy burst apart in a shower of droplets, the attacks infused with spatial force.

Three arrows, brimming with purple flame, flew forward like tracking missiles.

Even the man in dark green robes paused for a moment, snorting as he did so. Feng Xian, Qingyue Ge, the cultivator with a golden lantern, and Leiting Ya recovered from the temporary stupefaction, only to find the members of Team Zenith headed straight for them. All of them were hurt to some extent.

Zhang Lie noticed another cultivator that had been almost entirely unaffected by the holy hymn.

Like waves, the silver glow pulsed forward, lapping the shore, sounding like peals of thunder, like stampeding hooves.

Each silver wave morphed into an arclight dragon, soaring through the air.

The surface of the sea frothed with angry waves, like dragons emerging with the tide.

Countless arclight dagons soared through the sky, which thundered amidst forks of white lightning. It looked as though a holy world were forming in the sky.

Li Feng struck. A holy storm raged around him. Sword energy manifested as trailing dragons. A god descended as the heavens raged, as lightning forked through the air.

Li Feng's blade arced through the air and landed like a heavenly tribulation. Thousands of holy dragons smote the solar king's forces,

The crackling of thunder covered up the sound of hymns, as though it was a requiem for the world.

The Immortal King's substitute's gaze turned ardent. His thick hair danced in the wind. He looked like a god come down from heaven, invincible and deific.

The void halberd gleamed like crystal as it gave off immense energy. As the Immortal King slashed at the horde of holy dragons, the void split apart and ignited a large explosion.

Shockingly...
