Chapter 971: Forcing His Way through Tigerkill Pass

There was a piercing jangle. Xia Fei realized with a start that the White Flamingo was chirping!
“Strange! This weird White Flamingo has started chirping!” Xia Fei was startled and hastily took the item out.
Radix said, “Hurry and see what it says?”
Xia Fei observed it for a while, his brows furrowed.
“It’s an assembly order! All of the Skywing Clan with White Flamingos must assemble at these coordinates, not far from the God Race territory!” Xia Fei muttered. “So the White Flamingo is actually a secret communication tool of the Skywing Clan! This message has three exclamation marks in a row, meaning that it’s extremely dire!”
Radix shook his head. “In front of us is Tigerkill Pass. The fastest way is to go through the Dark lifeforms’s Tigerkill Pass, but that place is heavily guarded. We have to use Little Goldie’s power to return through the Dark Space, but that’ll still take some time.”
Tigerkill Pass was the first pass between the Dark lifeforms and the Law Realm! It had a large, permanent garrison of Dark lifeform warships and warriors. Xia Fei was fresh off killing Dark Wendar’s nephew Wensar and the strongest beast tamer Moha; he had even injured Princess Wenia. The Dark King must hate Xia Fei down to his bones, so it was certain that a large number of soldiers had been gathered around Tigerkill Pass to stop Xia Fei from escaping.
Frowning, Xia Fei sternly said, “No, this is an urgent matter, so I don’t have that time! I must return to the Law Realm through Tigerkill Pass!”
Radix was startled, saying, “A large army has gathered at Tigerkill Pass. Even if The Gemini has peerless speed in the universe, it can’t avoid those Dark lifeforms warriors guarding the pass. This is too dangerous!”
“Even if it’s dangerous, I still must do it!” said Xia Fei firmly, waving his hand. “At times like this, speed is life!”
…
*Whoosh~*
The Gemini streaked across space like a comet!
Xia Fei had the universe’s fastest ship overload its engine, instantly breaking through its historical speed limit!
In the distance was a dense concentration of nebulas, the region of space distorted. The narrow and thin black hole in the middle was none other than the famous Tigerkill Pass! The Dark lifeforms’s border stronghold!
“As expected, the Dark lifeforms have stationed a large army at Tigerkill Pass! There are several thousand warships alone, and many of them are even extremely powerful large-scale gunships!” said Radix worriedly as he looked at the radar.
Tigerkill Pass had treacherous terrain. The distorted space in the surroundings made it difficult for a warship, particularly for a speedy warship like The Gemini, to pass through. Attempting to push through that distorted space would be no different from suicide!
Xia Fei said nothing. At a distance not far from Tigerkill Pass, he stopped his ship and left it with the divine bow, Celestial Stamp Bodhi, in his hand.
Celestial Stamp Bodhi was the Law Realm’s number-one bow!
Xia Fei used the Celestial Stamp Bodhi to let loose three arrows at once!
These arrows infused with the Laws of Primal Chaos, Speed, and Space howled through the sea of stars with a universe-shaking momentum!
This was not even the end of it! After that, Xia Fei unleashed his peak Law of Primal Chaos combat technique: the Dark Crescent Ruinblade!
The three arrows and one blade came in from different angles as they approached the completely unaware Dark lifeforms.
*Rumble!*
Intense explosions radiated through the stars, flames engulfing space!
A third of the Dark lifeforms’s enormous fleet was wiped out by Xia Fei’s crazy attack before it even understood what was going on!
“What a powerful attack! I didn’t think that the Celestial Stamp Bodhi, combined with the Law of Primal Chaos’s strongest attack, would produce such an effect!” Radix’s eyes flashed.
Xia Fei was a high-speed warrior, and in the past, he had always preferred to fight his enemies in close combat, relying on his speed to kill his foes instantly.
However, Xia Fei was facing Tigerkill Pass! Garrisoned by the Dark lifeforms’s million-man army! Close-distance instant kills would find it very difficult to get through, so Xia Fei had used long-distance attacks! Area attacks!
With the power of the Celestial Stamp Bodhi and the Law of Primal Chaos, he had obliterated that dense fleet of warships blocking Tigerkill Pass!
*Whoosh~*
He moved swiftly!
The enemies in disarray was a perfect opportunity for Xia Fei! He put away The Gemini and rushed in alone, trying to charge through Tigerkill Pass!
Radix slapped himself on the head three times and grumbled, “Here I thought you had some brilliant plan! Turns out that you’re planning on just charging through! Isn’t this too unreasonable? After all, this is the Dark lifeforms’s greatest border stronghold!”
As Xia Fei charged, he casually said, “This may not be the best plan, but it’s the fastest!”
He would kill anyone that stood in his way, be it god or demon!
After receiving the urgent assembly order from the Skywing Clan, Xia Fei had gone red in the eyes!
It was obvious that the White Flamingo was a Skywing token of an even higher level than the Demonic Wing Token, and only the most special members of the clan could have one. Level 8 Great Law Sage Xia Guanghai did not have a White Flamingo, which was proof enough of how special it was!
Xia Fei was the Skywing Clan’s Godwing and Fiendwing! This was why he had a White Flamingo. It could be easily imagined that the members the clan gathering right now were the elites of the elite, and anything that required the Demon-sealing Fiendish Blade to assemble the clan’s strongest fighting force could not be a minor matter!
It might even be that the battle between the Demon-sealing Fiendish Blade and the Thirteen Founders had already begun!
Xia Fei’s heart was aflame with worry, and his blade moved even faster as he pushed his speed to the maximum! While the Dark lifeform army was still in turmoil, he blasted through Tigerkill Pass!
“Whew!”
Xia Fei took a deep breath, cold light erupting from his eyes!
Tigerkill Pass was a passage, the only passage one could take to leave the Dark lifeform territory. At present, this passage was deserted and silent as if time had stopped. It was completely at odds with the vast army that had surrounded it outside. It was so quiet that it made one’s hair stand on end.
“Ocular Cognition!”
There must be a reason for this abnormality! Xia Fei used the Beast Spirit Codex’s Ocular Cognition to observe his surroundings carefully.
“Did you find anything?” asked Radix cautiously. As a superexpert who had recovered his memories at this point, he felt extremely uneasy about this eerie silence.
“Nothing,” answered Xia Fei sternly. “This is what I don’t understand. There’s a huge army outside, but there’s not even a shadow of a ghost in Tigerkill Pass itself. That’s very abnormal.”
*Whoosh!*
Gritting his teeth, Xia Fei hardened his resolve. No matter what scheme they had in place, he just had to break through Tigerkill Pass swiftly! Wherever the fiendish blade was, there would be no survivors!
In the blink of an eye, he had reached the end of Tigerkill Pass. As long as he could get out of the passage, he would be in the Law Realm! Once The Gemini got going, no one would be able to catch him. Xia Fei felt like he could already see the dark red sea of stars on the other end of the passage.
Suddenly—
Dark figures emerged from the sides of the passage, blocking Xia Fei’s path forward, and behind him, toward the entrance of Tigerkill Pass, six more Dark lifeform experts had appeared.
Six in front and six in the back, for a total of twelve top-class Dark lifeforms war gods! It turned out that they had intentionally let Xia Fei into Tigerkill Pass before blocking off both ends! Xia Fei was surrounded at the center.
Xia Fei stopped and grimly looked around, his mind working rapidly as he sought the ideal solution to break through.
“Someone dares to intrude on Tigerkill Pass! You’ve got the guts, but we brothers have been waiting for you for some time! You can go, but you must leave your life behind!”
These Dark warriors wore black armor and black masks as they wielded dark sabers; they could even speak the common language of the Law Realm. These Dark generals were clearly different from the ones Xia Fei had encountered before. Putting aside their training, even their armor and weapons were identical, as if they belonged to the same team.
These experts in twelve immaculately chosen positions began to approach Xia Fei after uttering such harsh words, their steps synchronized and their positions impregnable. Clearly, these warriors were not merely experts skilled at combat; they also excelled at group tactics! They did not give Xia Fei any openings to break through.
“Can you get past them? Use your Crafty Approach and your speed!” suggested Radix anxiously.
“I can!” replied Xia Fei crisply. “I’ll just kill them all, and then I’ll naturally be able to break through their encirclement!”
Xia Fei lunged forward. Furball turned around and fired off energy blasts at the six experts behind his master to slow them down. Meanwhile, Xia Fei brandished Peacock Blue and Nirvana at the six foes in front of him!
*Rumble!*
The battle was very swift and intense! In the blink of an eye, several hundred blows had been exchanged!
These Dark warriors, who were undoubtedly experts among experts, had clearly been ready and waiting for him! With three men to a team, their teamwork was perfect. Since they could not keep up with Xia Fei’s speed, they relied on their perfect teamwork and powerful reaction to battle with Xia Fei.
It seemed like they were not in a rush to kill him. Instead, they planned on exhausting him to death in this long tunnel!
Two fists would find it hard to deal with four hands. While Xia Fei had the advantage in speed and his mystical armament, he could not deal with so many experts at once. They did not use law force, but all of them were on par with his cultivation!
Xia Fei was extremely surprised and overjoyed at how well Radix controlled Nirvana in this battle. He seemed to have transformed, the blade moving swiftly and with killing intent, completely different from the Radix of the past who lacked combat experience. Several times, Nirvana, which was under Radix’s control, had almost killed an opponent; the enemy had only been able to just barely avoid the attack through their incredible reaction speed and flawless teamwork.
Despite him having Radix, Nirvana, and Peacock Blue on his side, Xia Fei was still at a disadvantage against the six Dark warriors. As for Furball who had to face six warriors in the back alone, his suffering was beyond words!
With his little eyes turning red and his fur bristling, Furball was using all of his strength. The only thing he had not yet used was the Shatterstar Beam!
There were enemies up ahead and pursuers behind! The twelve Dark warriors drew closer and closer, and once they came together, Xia Fei, despite all his prodigious abilities, would never be able to escape!
*Clack!*
Xia Fei, who was unable to attack the nearest Dark warrior with Peacock Blue, moved like a sly mudfish and used White Skull, the blade made from the destroyed divine weapons, to slice across that warrior’s thigh.
The wound was not very remarkable, but the maddening effect of White Skull soon went to work. That warrior lost his senses and charged at his own companion.
*Whoosh!*
These guys were not just well-trained but were also the cruelest combat group Xia Fei had ever encountered.
Three Dark figures came together and killed their crazed companion instantly!
The remaining five warriors reorganized. Rather than two three-man teams, they took up an even more powerful five-man formation, which suppressed Xia Fei in the center.
To lack resolve when resolve was needed would only hurt oneself. Without another word, Xia Fei gritted his teeth and shattered the rainbow energy ball in his seventh brain region!
Endless energy surged through his body!
“This is it!” declared Xia Fei, his words terse and determined!
