Chapter 265 Xie Feng vs Nangong Jun - A single attack! (2)
"This... what is that?" muttered Yang Tian with wide eyes as he looked in front of him.
It was a tornado, of that there was no doubt. But the problem was the size... Level five tornado? If they were comparing the level five tornado that shook part of Beijing two years ago, a tornado with enough power to be called "God's Thumb" by all of humanity, against this tornado they were looking at right now.... It was no different than comparing a toy car to a real car.
A colossal behemoth to say the least, it united the heavens and the earth! The magnitude of the tornado was so massive that in truth, even being over a thousand kilometers away, the people standing over the ocean did not need the 'Water Mirror' created by the ancestor of the Gu Family to see it.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Even from their distance, they could hear the faint explosions coming from the center of Antarctica. Explosions not generated by the battle between the only two people there, but explosions caused by the enormous pressure of the wind, crushing everything in its path!
Yang Jie, Yang Tian's father and patriarch of the Yang Family, looked at the wind monster whirling above the now-clear clouds and murmured uncertainly, "A tornado...? Or is that what it's supposed to be...? Hmph, brat, does your shoulder hurt?"
Yang Tian was surprised and looked at his father in confusion, "My shoulder...?" Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and asked quickly, "You.... How do you know?"
You must know that Yang Jie's power, like all members of the Yang Family, was to control the earth. The power to control the earth was very good for investigations, raids, defense, attack, etc.... But it was not good for inspecting an enemy in depth since unlike the volatility of wind, the earth was a fixed solid element.
"Hmph, of course I know. It was me who asked that boy Xie Feng to give you a little lesson." Yang Jie revealed without caring to hide the truth.
"What!?" Yang Tian exclaimed. If it weren't for the fact that everyone was gazing at the phenomenon in the distance, he probably would have attracted the attention of everyone present. "Why did you do that, old man!?"
Yang Tian was furious. The ease with which Xie Feng injured him tonight, although it was extremely slight and in a few minutes he could heal himself with a skill user, was a great humiliation to him.
"You dare to call your father an old man, you brat!" Yang Jie also got angry and hit Yang Tian behind the head. "You want to know why? Fine! Because since your earth elemental power grew in the past few years, your arrogance also took off into the skies like a rocket!"
Yang Tian was so surprised that he didn't know what to say. In fact, he was being somewhat arrogant lately.... But wasn't it normal for those who were strong or had superior abilities to have the right to be somewhat arrogant? Yang Tian grew up in an overly powerful family and his enemies were always everywhere; in such an environment where war existed even while he slept, showing weakness was fatal. Therefore, he developed a rough and somewhat arrogant, but still sincere personality.
Yang Jie sighed when he saw his son's astonished expression and said only a few words: "It's not wrong to be arrogant, but I want you to know that everything has limits.... Everything in excess is bad in this life. Take Xie Feng for example, if you pass him on the street one day, you would probably think he is just a normal person.... Now, imagine you do something that upset him like for example insulting that girl Xie Yao. What do you think would happen?"
Yang Tian's face changed slightly and his gaze unconsciously turned in the direction of Antarctica.... Towards the wind colossus that measured who knows how many kilometers in diameter.
"Looks like you understood." Yang Jie nodded and pointed, "It's not wrong to be arrogant, but it's wrong to believe that you are unrivaled under the heavens.... Unless you want to end up one day like the Chen child of the Nangong Family. You never know if the person you offended was someone you could afford to offend."
After saying that, Yang Jie stood silently and observed the sky. Faint lights were beginning to flicker there as if a storm was approaching.
Meanwhile, Yang Tian was silent for several seconds before nodding slowly. His eyes had a sparkle of understanding in them and, after hearing his father's words, he seemed to finally agree with him.
Everything in excess was bad; this was a reality that applied to anything.
"It's bigger than I thought it would be." Said an elderly woman who looked about 60 years old. Although her face had several wrinkles and much of her hair had turned white, one could easily see from the lines of her face and the contours of her body that in her youth she was undoubtedly a beauty. This old woman was actually the ancestor of the Mu Family, Mu Xuegang.
Mu Xuegang looked at Gu Yating and asked, "Can you do something like that?"
Gu Yating thought seriously for several seconds; this was enough to surprise the other three ancestors greatly! They were very clear on how powerful Gu Yating really was... in fact if you were talking about battle power, he was probably one of the strongest! However, what he said next surprised them even more.
"I can... In fact, with my power over the wind, I can do something of this scale." Just as everyone sighed in relief, Gu Yating pointed out, "But after a single attack of such magnitude, I would be completely exhausted to the point of not being able to use wind power for a certain amount of time."
Gu Yating's words surprised everyone! Exhausting himself and losing his power for a certain amount of time?
Some people's eyes had a strange shine in them. If what Gu Yating said was true, didn't that mean that Xie Feng would be "crippled" for at least a few days? This would certainly be a good time to end that demon's life!
Xie Yao could feel some eyes on her body, but she didn't care nor did she wonder who it belonged to. If these people believed that Xie Feng was dumb even after all that had happened, then she would have to seriously rethink how such stupid people had not died yet.
* * *
-Antarctica.
Xie Feng gazed in wonder at his creation and a smile that could charm any woman graced his handsome face. It was a happy smile, as if he had finally unburdened himself of a heavy stone that lay at all times on his back.
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
The wind howled furiously as a hurricane measuring at least 200 kilometers in diameter and with a height that seemed to embrace the heavens whirled seemingly slowly in front of Xie Feng. The speed at which the hurricane wind was spinning seemed slow, but it was actually at such a high speed that anything that came even slightly close would be engulfed and completely destroyed! However, the most amazing thing to the eye was that the wind that formed the hurricane had turned as black as night!
Even the sky over Antarctica had practically completely darkened!
But Xie Feng was not satisfied, he wanted to try something else.
Raising both arms and pointing towards the terrifying windstorm, hundreds of lightning flashed over Xie Feng's body and flew towards the hurricane.
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
Since this was Xie Feng's first time performing an attack of such magnitude, he did not know how to use his energy properly; therefore, it took him several seconds to form something that he was finally satisfied with.
He clenched his teeth while watching the lightning flashes he sent out being seemingly destroyed by the windstorm. But Xie Feng knew that they had not disappeared, it was just that the wind was so powerful that the lightning could not be seen with the naked eye. It was only after a full ten seconds that Xie Feng finally relaxed his posture.
"It's a pity that I won't be able to use any lightning for several days..." Xie Feng said bitterly.
In fact, since his power was generated by the strange colored cloud, as long as there was some power inside he could generate such an element anywhere! This was something Xie Feng had realized when he almost died in outer space. The only problem was that, unlike the wind he had obtained in unknown ways, the lightning he absorbed from Nangong Wentian's lightning world was clearly insufficient in comparison.
"But this is worth it!" Xie Feng smiled to himself as he looked at the beautiful sight in front of him.
BOOM!
BOOM!
An already terrifying black wind hurricane had become even more terrifying! Thousands and hundreds of thousands of blue lightning flashed constantly, surrounding the raging whirlwind!
Xie Feng was sure that if he released this in Beijing, the entire city would disappear in a second and probably many other nearby cities would suffer dreadful devastation! But if there was one thing Xie Feng wasn't sure of, it was what kind of earth-shaking power it would provoke when he set it off!
Just imagining it, Xie Feng shuddered in horror! But what Xie Feng didn't know was that the person most surprised here and had even shuddered slightly when felt the power containing attack he had created, was none other than Nangong Jun!
Several kilometers away, Nangong Jun's view was covered from east to west by the gigantic colossus that seemed to hold up the heavens! A hurricane of wind and lightning of indescribable size!
How much power was inside that whirlwind of wind and lightning? Five nuclear bombs? Ten nuclear bombs? Nangong Jun could not even imagine!
