Chapter 179 - 179 Radiant White Hook Snake

179 Radiant White Hook Snake

In the next instant, Shen Fei turned to his right. His gaze zeroed onto a huge tree.

‘Someone is hiding there.’ Shen Fei frowned, his eyes narrowed, and a cold smile appeared on his face.

“Since you’ve taken the initiative to deliver yourself to my door, don’t blame me for being impolite!”

Shen Fei had thought that he was still being targeted by the black-robed old man, so he had deliberately lured him deeper into the forest and prepared his own counterattack!

However, Shen Fei quietly stayed in his original spot and pretended not to notice anything—he was waiting for the enemy to approach.

After a while, a cold laugh echoed through the forest. “Hehehe…”

Swish!

A masked man swept through the wind and arrived at an extremely fast speed. This person wore a loose black robe, and his face was covered by a black cloth, so Shen Fei could not see it clearly.

After the man landed on the ground, he quietly walked toward Shen Fei. The man walked out from the forest and looked at Shen Fei with a teasing expression.

Suddenly, the masked man grinned, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. “Hehe, you’re here as expected.”

“Who are you?” Shen Fei had no fear on his face.

Although the masked man’s identity was yet unknown, Shen Fei felt an extremely familiar aura coming from him. It was the stench of a murderer!

The masked man laughed playfully and drew his sword as he said, “Can you guess who I am?”

Shen Fei shook his head. “I have no interest in knowing your identity.”

“Hmph! You piece of trash, you actually have the courage to come fight me! It’s laughable!” the masked man said disdainfully. He had been tracking the Flame Owl’s aura and found Shen Fei. “Since you refuse to come to your senses, don’t blame me for not being polite!” His face was ice cold.

“I see.” Shen Fei heavily stomped his foot and instantly charged at the masked man.

Shen Fei’s figure was extremely fast, almost turning into an afterimage as he instantly approached the masked man.

“Hmph! You want to take me on? Dream on!” The masked man sneered and waved his long sword to meet the attack. Shen Fei’s eyes narrowed slightly, the corner of his mouth raised in a cold sneer.

Bang! He threw out a punch that contained a terrifying amount of power. It shot out as quick as lightning and went for the masked man’s chest.

The masked man’s expression suddenly changed. He never thought that Shen Fei’s one move would actually be able to produce such a terrifying attack.

“How is that possible?” The masked man’s eyes widened in shock.

Crack! The bones in the masked man’s arm shattered, and he was sent flying. He crashed through a huge ancient tree and fell to the ground. With just one punch, Shen Fei had severely injured the masked man.

Shen Fei withdrew his aura and coldly said, “Who are you?”

“Ptooi!” The masked man stood up and spat out a mouthful of blood, his body twitching violently. He raised his head with difficulty and glared at Shen Fei. Other than hatred in his eyes, there was also a deep fear.

‘How can this guy have such terrifying physical strength? The power of that punch just now almost killed me!’

The masked man gritted his teeth. “You brat! How dare you ambush me! I’m going to kill you!”

Hearing this, the corners of Shen Fei’s mouth rose, revealing an evil smile.

“Flame Owl, Blazing Charge!” Shen Fei said.

Hearing that, the Flame Owl turned to face the masked man and rushed at him.

“Shriek!” A deafening cry reverberated through the entire forest, threatening to destroy everything.

Boom!!!

A ball of blinding flames exploded upon impact, forming a violent blast that swept outward in a circle, wiping out all the surrounding grass and trees.

“Shriek!” the Flame Owl called to the sky. Its entire body was burning with raging flames, looking like a god of fire. Its aura was soul-shaking and majestic.

“Radiant White Hook Snake, World-breaking Thunder.” A cold glint flashed in the masked man’s eyes as he summoned his spirit beast with a low growl. At the same time, the Radiant White Hook Snake pounced on the Flame Owl. Its two silver snake fangs were like sharp steel weapons and glinted coldly.

In the next moment, the Flame Owl’s tail suddenly swung around, and hot flames swept out. They exploded with a bang and turned into a shower of fiery sparks.

The Radiant White Hook Snake was caught off-guard and was suddenly engulfed by the scorching flames. It let out a miserable cry, “Hiss, hiss!”

“What?” The masked man was stunned when he saw this. “Radiant White Hook Snake, Lightning Shock!” He refused to admit defeat and had his spirit beast use a high-level skill.

In the next second, the snake summoned a dense net of lighting and sent it flying over with terrifying power. However, the Flame Owl did not move at all and stayed proudly in the air.

Whoosh! A reddish-brown light appeared around the Flame Owl’s body. It then bent down and crashed into the lightning.

The Thunderbolt was the most basic attack skill, and only cultivators in the early stage of mystical learning could perform it.

Poof!

The lightning net touched the Flame Owl’s body and instantly broke apart. The Flame Owl’s body trembled, but it was completely uninjured.

“What powerful physical strength!” Shen Fei was stunned when he saw this. He had never heard of a fifth-tier peak-level holy beast possessing such terrifying physical strength!

“How is that possible? My spirit beast’s lightning can’t even hurt it!” The masked man’s pupils shrank, and he was scared out of his wits.

At this moment, he has come to realize that he had bitten off more than he could chew! The defense of the Flame Owl was too abnormal!

“I don’t believe that I can’t kill you!” The masked man clenched his long sword with both hands. He leaped up and slashed down with his sword. The terrifyingly sharp blade was enough to tear everything apart with incredible power.

“Coo!” the Flame Owl cried out, its huge body swayed, and its tail swept out. Its tail hit the long sword, and the overwhelming force directly sent the masked man flying.

“Cough, cough!” The masked man fell to the ground and vomited blood. His face was extremely pale.

“Dammit! How can this guy be so strong?” the masked man said with a ferocious expression.

The corner of Shen Fei’s mouth curled into a sneer. He slowly walked to face the masked man and asked, “Who are you?”

The masked man struggled to get up and said fiercely, “The person who wants your life!”

Whoosh! As soon as he finished speaking, an even more majestic power suddenly burst out from the masked man’s body.

“The mystic’s realm.” Shen Fei’s brows twitched.

Swish! The masked man once again brandished his long sword and slashed down. The resplendent sword tore through the mist, carrying a sharp and ear-piercing whistle as it went straight for Shen Fei’s head.

Shen Fei immediately dodged when he felt rather than saw the danger coming.

Crash!

The sword struck the rock face of a nearby mountain and blasted an indent into the rock wall leaving a huge sword mark there. The masked man attacked wildly, and the whistling sound of air being sliced resounded through the forest, making one’s hair stand on end.

Shen Fei’s face turned gloomy. His movements were strange, and he moved around into all kinds of tricky and strange positions, making it extremely difficult for his opponent to figure out where he would go.
