Chapter 228: Fighting The Crow Leaders

"You little shits!" 

Crow Theo, Apollo, and Joe's furious voices blasted out in the air, stretching far into the area for miles. Never before in their lives have they felt such a furious rage towards any specific person.

But Darcel, Aniela, and Masami had finally spark that fiery rage seeded deep within them. Though they may slightly fear their prowess, they still couldn't accept that some masked nobodies could match their powers.

Crow Theo, Apollo, and Joe don't consider themselves nobodies. They all hail from the Golden Crow Circle! 

The strongest Mercenary group in the whole Plunged Tundra! 

Furthermore, they all were the strongest Leaders of their whole massive group. There simply no way they should be getting this intensely pressure by mere Spirit Monsters and masked nobodies! 

"Hmmm….looks like somebody mad because reality is hard to accept." Aniela joked between Darce and Masami. Though that Spirit Monster Hawk was surprising, against these tenth-level Heavenly Kings, she didn't feel a great sense of danger.

Both Darcel and Masami had a slight smirk towards Aniela's comment. '

Honestly, she wasn't wrong at all. There was a genuine rage truly emanating from those Crow Leaders. 

But Darcel, Aniela, and Masami could also tell another emotion in them.

The emotion of hidden fear. It wasn't like they could just perceive the Crow Leaders' hidden emotions. But they could just tell it from each of their surging Heavenly auras.

Even before the trio saw the Crow Leaders, they were sensing the Crow Leaders auras all go frantically wild. And while their Heavenly aura is slowly increasing in power. There simply wasn't any refined control in them.

In just a second after Aniela's comment, the trio saw the Crow Leaders. 

Crow Theo, Apollo, and Joe stood just a hundred feet away from them. Pools of blood were leaking out of their mouth as an immense pain was still wracking their bodies.

It was only one punch from Darcel, Aniela, and Masami, yet the Crow Leaders felt as if their entire chest got caved in. 

Even for all the intense fights they had participated in, they were never injured so heavily like this.

For a single tense, silent second, Darcel's group and the Crow Leaders matched gazes with each other. 

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami had a calm stature in the face of three tenth-level Heavenly Kings.

But their auras were deathly chilling. Killing Intent was continuously spewing out of them as their minds kept on recalling the two surprise attacks of these Crow Leaders. That powerful Martial Skill they unleashed stuck a noticeable cord in their minds.

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami's mind became rock-solid firm on making these Crow Leaders suffer before dying. 

All the while, Crow Theo, Apollo, and Joe kept ferocious gazes as their eyes bore holes into Darcel, Aniela, and Masami's mask.

Their statures weren't anywhere near as calm as Darcel's group. Even as they kept on relying on their rage, the imminent fear they had over Darcel's group prowess couldn't be ignored. 

But, there was no way they would simply back down from a fight!

And if that Spirit Monster Hawk could match all three of them, the Crow Leaders had the assurance to kill Darcel's group. 

After all, they know they don't rely on some beastly instincts of suddenly increasing their powers. They have a talisman and the most dangerous Spirit Artifacts to clear any enemy! 

As the Crow Leaders' thoughts became more confident because of this, their eyes began to spew out cold rays of Killing Intent.

In the very next second, the Crow Leaders' spatial ring ignited, and they each had brought long straight swords. On their long straight swords were a bright orange glow. The orange glows were luminous like rays of sunlight. 

When the Crow Leaders brought these swords out, their Heavenly aura increased even more in power! 

The weapons they were using were all high-ranking Royal Spirit Weapons! 

Every Royal Spirit rank weapon contains a massive yet wild sum of energy that only Heavenly Transformation cultivators and above can control. 

When sensing those Royal Spirit rank weapons Darcel and Aniela felt a bit of intrigue. 

The energy emanating from those weapons reminded them of their old Earthen Spirit rank saber weapons. Only those orange glowing swords were a whole different level. 

At that moment, Darcel and Aniela realized they should find higher quality weapons than the ones lying around the Snow Angel group.

But before their thoughts could divulge any further on that subject, the Crow Leaders began to move. In the same instance the Crow Leaders brought out their weapons, they shot right towards Darcel's group.

The Crow Leader speeds were amazingly swift, crossing over thirty feet in just a single step. 

However, before they could take another step forward, Darcel's eyes burst into a profound Darkness glow. 

Darkness energy crazily spewed from Darcel's eyes as he narrowed his gaze on the three Crow Leaders. 

The Crow Leaders felt an icy sensation shiver down their spines from Darcel's Darkness glow eyes. His stare was like peering into cold pits of a nightmarish abyss.

But before they could process anything else, they all suddenly felt their bodies get tightly constrained! 

'Chi! 

"Wha?!" The three Crow Leaders all bellowed their surprise as numerous Darkness tendrils had wrapped up their bodies!

The Crow Leaders were nothing short but utterly shocked. While they felt that icy sensation from Darcel's eyes, they didn't sense any power surging around them. There wasn't even a shift in the wind.

This attack was truly instantaneous! 

"Tch…." Although for Darcel, it wasn't as peachy as it seemed. A burning sting was rising in his eyes from constraining these Crow Leaders. 

Darcel wasn't sure what it was, but it was like these Crow Leaders bodies had actual Fire Qi deeply infused in them. Still, the stinging pain wasn't enough to break Darcel's concentration as he kept a solid hold over the Crow Leaders. 

Right when Darcel's unleashed her Darkness tendrils, Aniela's bloodline arm began sparking up in an intense white Light. At the same time, one of Masami's foxtails started to burst in a harsher blue fire glow compared to the rest of her Firefox cloak. 

Aniela was quite literally in the process of opening her mouth to unleash her soul stunning flashbang.

But right then, an immensely blinding golden ray of light exploded from the Crow Leaders' eyes, covering up Darcel, Aniela, and Masami's vision! 

For a half-second, the trio was legitimately caught off guard, causing Aniela to stall her attack for a half of a second.

Inside Crow Theo, Apollo, and Joe's bodies, Darcel's Darkness lustful energy was causing chaos there. Their bloodstreams were getting burned, and their Heavenly Qi got heavily disrupted.

However, the Crow Leaders' prowess wasn't becoming weaker. On their hands, they all had a golden ring that was brightly surging a radiant golden glow. 

This Ring Spirit Artifact was the reason the Crow Leaders had experienced a sudden power surge and caused their eyes to spew that blinding golden ray of light.

In the half-second Aniela was stalled in their attacks; the Crow Leaders didn't hesitate and gathered all of their Ring Spirit Artifact energy. 

Their eyes burst with an even higher golden glow, and two golden fire beams blasted out from each of their eyes!

'Chi!' 

The six golden fire beams shredded through the air, nearly reaching Darcel, Aniela, and Masami, all in a span of a split second! 

Right before the six golden fire beams reached them, Darcel, Aniela, and Masami still managed to react.

They all had to cut off their current attacks, and they swiftly gathered their respective Fire energy sources. 

Darcel and Aniela's hands burst with black flames. While Masami's hands emitted an intenser shade of blue fire.

When the six golden fire beams were just a foot away from Darcel's group, they all raised their hands simultaneously. A vast black and blue firewall quickly rose from their feet, shielding them against the Crow Leader's attacks.

'BANG~!' 

A tremendous Fire explosion blasted out for several feet as the six golden Fire beams crashed on Darcel, Aniela, and Masami's mixed firewall. 

Blue, black and golden flames swirled out in the already ruined destruction field, drilling even more holes into the ground.

"Ng! Finally!" The three Crow Leaders all felt a bit of relief as the Darkness tendrils disappeared from their bodies. 

As the Crow Leaders touch the ground, they had to take a moment to catch their breaths.

Remnants of Darcel's Darkness lustful energy was still affecting their bloodstreams and continuously decreasing their Heavenly Qi. The Crow Leaders took a moment to stay still and attempt to purge this chaotic energy in their bodies.

None of them were sensing Darcel, Aniela, and Masami close to them at this moment, so they believed that attack had indeed stalled them. 

But right then, Crow Theo, Apollo, and Joe froze in fear.

Their entire beings got tremendously suppressed as three immense power surges exploded right in front of their faces! The Crow Leaders' pupils shrunk to needle sizes. 

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami were mere inches away from their faces.

Only now, they all had a drastically different appearance. Each of their masks was now entirely burnt of revealing their beautiful faces. 

"Wha-" The Crow Leaders didn't have a chance to react or gather any defense. Their movements became tremendously sluggish as Darcel, Aniela, and Masami's current aura was briefly overpowering them.

Darcel, Aniela, and Masami had frantically overdrawn on their souls, allowing them to reach immense speeds to appear right in front of the Crow Leader's faces.

"Fiery Slice/Fox Claw!" 

At the same time, Darcel, Aniela, and Masami unleashed their Martial Skills to the completely unprepared Crow Leaders.

'Chi!' 

Two thin streams of black fire and a blue firefox claw blasted the Crow Leaders away, quickly shooting them through the ruined field. 

"AHHH!!" The Crow Leaders were shrieking in pain as Darcel, Aniela, and Masami's Martial Skills were overpowering them.

But before the Crow Leaders got fully vaporized by the trio's Martial Skills, a brilliant golden light burst from Crow Theo's chest!

'Hua!' 

An unfathomable power burst from Crow Theo's chest! 

In that instance, Darcel, Aniela, and Masami's Martial Skills were utterly vaporized by this surge of power.

Crow Apollo and Joe fell to their knees, just barely hanging on to life. While Crow Theo remained standing. His gaze was ferociously wild as he glared at Darcel's group.

Seeing their powerful Martial Skill get instantly vaporize shocked Darcel, Aniela, and Masami. 

Admittedly, they started to feel dread as the power discharging from Crow Theo was explosively growing at an insane rate, nearing a whole other level of prowess.
