Chapter 5353 Tang Wan-er’s Heavenly Fate Manifestation
Tang Wan-er shot out like a bolt of lightning toward the Heaven Devil, her sword unsheathing with a cry like a dragon’s roar.
When her sword slashed down, the wind energy of the world gathered, and a sharp Sword Qi sliced toward the Heaven Devil’s head.
Caught off-guard by her sudden attack, the Heaven Devil hastily raised his left hand, summoning a white bone shield. The Sword Qi slammed into the shield with a thunderous explosion, sending him reeling from the impact.
Like an elegant cloud, Tang Wan-er charged over, her sword strikes flying as swiftly and relentlessly as a tempest. The air around her glowed with brilliant sword-light as she pursued the retreating Heaven Devil.
Vast wind energy concentrated on her sword without leaking, and each of her strikes was sharp and precise, slicing apart the very laws of the world, forcing the Heaven Devil further back.
Long Chen smiled, watching her fight. The impish girl he once knew had been tamed by responsibility ever since becoming a divine daughter, but now, in battle, her true nature revealed itself. She attacked unceremoniously, not even saying a word beforehand.
The bone devils grew panicked upon seeing Tang Wan-er take the initiative. The Heaven Devil had been prematurely awoken by their ritual, which left him injured and unstable. Now, under Tang Wan-er’s relentless assault, he was unable to unleash his full strength.
Suddenly, the elder of the bone devils—the only seven-vein Emperor present—waved his staff, conjuring a barrier in front of the Heaven Devil. He wanted to halt Tang Wan-er’s momentum.
“How shameless!” Xiao Yue and the others were outraged by his interference.
Indeed, while Tang Wan-er sliced the barrier apart, her movements slowed, and her rhythm was interrupted.
The Heaven Devil grasped this chance to shove his shield forward, and the two combatants were blown back. Tang Wan-er’s tempestuous assault ended just like that. freewebnøvel.com
Outraged by the elder’s interference, Xiao Yue and the others glared at him, but Long Chen shook his head.
Long Chen reprimanded them. “This is a life-and-death battle. To survive, there is nothing wrong with being crafty or even shameless! Remember, you are not only disciples of the Wind God Sea Pavilion; you are also warriors of the Hidden Dragon Legion. What you face now aren’t sparring matches with rules and principles. You’re up against enemies who won’t hesitate to kill you. Fairness? Shamelessness? I don’t want to hear those naive words again!”
His cold reprimand caught them off-guard, and they quickly realized their mistake. They had been judging this battlefield according to the principles of the Wind God Sea Pavilion’s martial stage. That was a fatal oversight.
To put it frankly, although they had gotten stronger, some of their rigid thinking had yet to change. They were actually angry that the elder had interfered in the battle, a reaction that Long Chen found laughably naive. It was this naivety that angered him.
“We understand.” Xiao Yue and the others turned red and apologized. In that moment, they felt utterly foolish, even growing to resent their own ignorance.
“It’s fine as long as you realize this. Battle is not a game. If you want to live, you must understand these principles. For now, just watch and absorb what you can,” Long Chen sighed, starting to regret being so harsh just now.
Becoming stronger wasn’t just about power; changing someone’s mindset took time. It was his fault for being in a rush.
After all, they were all young and inexperienced. Being able to grow to this point was already very amazing. He couldn’t judge them with the standards of the Dragonblood Legion.
At this moment, the Heaven Devil’s Heavenly Fate Disk appeared, and berserk devil qi exploded out of him.
“You despicable human, do you only know how to launch sneak attacks?!” the Heaven Devil shouted, a white bone spear appearing in his hand. With a shield in one hand and a spear in the other, his devil qi surged, making him appear like a battle god.
“What a powerful aura!” exclaimed one of the Hidden Dragon warriors.
Despite them all being in the Heaven Saint realm, the Heaven Devil’s pressure made their souls shake. Fortunately, their training in the Seven Treasure space had hardened them, or they might have been paralyzed with fear.
“He’s as strong as a divine son,” Xiao Yue whispered in awe.
Within the same realm, the strongest heavenly geniuses they had seen were the divine sons and divine daughters, so the Heaven Devil’s aura shocked them.
Refusing to take the Heaven Devil’s insult lying down, Tang Wan-er retorted, “Hmph, you despicable devil, do you only know how to rely on numbers? If you have any guts, you’d send your minions away and fight me one-on-one. But I bet you’re too scared!”
Tang Wan-er’s sudden attack might not have been the most honorable move, but the bone devil elder’s interference was just as shameless. Neither side was better than the other.
The Heaven Devil was left at a loss for words. Gritting his teeth, he snarled, “You invaded the devil race’s territory, disrupted my awakening ceremony, and injured me! You already deserve a thousand deaths! Who would fight you fairly? All of you will die!”
The next moment, devil images appeared within his Heavenly Fate Disk, pouring their energy into him like a massive army fueling his strength. His devil qi ignited, and flames erupted from his body as he thrust his spear forward.
“Tch, so you are gutless after all,” Tang Wan-er sneered. “Whether it’s one-on-one or a group battle, do you think my Hidden Dragon Legion fears the likes of you?”
Tang Wan-er raised her sword, and her own Heavenly Fate Disk manifested behind her. Seeing this scene, Long Chen was stunned. Tang Wan-er’s Heavenly Fate Disk held vast mountains and endless plains, with a full moon shining in the sky. Though the image was still somewhat blurry, its meaning was unmistakable. It was Long Chen’s first time seeing a manifestation like this. Could this mean that Tang Wan-er’s manifestation was already on the verge of awakening? She was just one step away.
Within the Seven treasure space, no one had bothered to summon their manifestations, as it had been unnecessary. But now that Long Chen saw hers, the entire world seemed to change. A murderous aura filled the air, and even the wind that accompanied the Heaven Devil’s spear vanished without a trace.
Hovering in the air, Tang Wan-er appeared peerless, bathed in the ethereal glow of the moon behind her. Her presence was majestic.
Slowly, Tang Wan-er swung her sword, meeting the Heaven Devil’s spear head-on.
