Chapter 793 Departure [Six Updates]
The aged Second God's eyes showed anger as he rapidly counterattacked, clashing with his opponent's strikes.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Instantly, the Void exploded, sending out waves of force, layer upon layer.
The aftermath impacted up to thousands of meters away before it completely vanished.
At that time, not only were Ye Feng and Asuka Hana watching, but the Sword Emperor Commander, Ninja Emperor Commander, and the Fist Emperor Commander were also observing.
The Young Second God and the aged Second God clashed fiercely, neither holding back at all, fighting as if crazed, each move was meant to kill.
Ye Feng's eyes showed confusion, greatly surprised; these two were clearly intent on killing each other, showing no mercy at all.
Before, hadn't the Sword Emperor Commander said the four Second Gods were united? Why were they behaving like this now?
And at that time, Asuka Hana, the Sword Emperor Commander, Ninja Emperor Commander, and Fist Emperor Commander all appeared serene, as if already accustomed to such scenes, nothing worth their surprise.
In mid-air, the Young Second God and the aged Second God fought fiercely, expressions twisted and mad, locked in an indecisive battle, giving Ye Feng a better understanding of their strength.
Indeed, their strengths weren't strong within the early stages of the Divine Realm. Compared to Ye Feng when he had just broken through to the early stages of the Divine Realm, they were much weaker, only having roughly eighty percent of Ye Feng's combat power.
The two continued attacking each other, but neither could gain the upper hand.
Finally, after hundreds of moves, both were fatigued and gasping for breath, unable to defeat the other.
The Young Second God said, "Old Ghost, you're lucky today. With more training, I'll utterly destroy you!"
The aged Second God coldly responded, "Brat, you're not qualified to kill me. Wait to be destroyed by me instead!"
"Hmph, we'll stop the fight here today. Better not provoke me next time, or else I'll kill you!" the Young Second God said loudly.
The aged Second God's eyes showed disdain and contempt, "Come on, with your meager skills, trying to destroy me? I'd like to see what new tricks you have next time!"
Then, the aged Second God turned to look at the Sword Emperor Commander, Ye Feng, and the others, "Let's head back, tomorrow you'll leave Luoying for a mission. Rest well today, and set out early tomorrow!"
Ye Feng and others nodded and returned to their residences.
Back at his residence, Ye Feng's eyes showed confusion looking at Asuka Hana.
Asuka Hana smiled slightly, anticipating Ye Feng's question, "Ye Feng-kun, are you curious why, though they said the four were united, they fought like today? Each move was deadly, as if they genuinely wanted to kill each other?"
Ye Feng nodded, "Indeed, I am curious."
Asuka Hana explained, "Actually, it's simple. They are not truly united. My father's Reincarnation Four Body Skills have significant drawbacks. Though he split into four individuals, almost unbeatable within their class, the personalities of each are different, particularly during their younger days, where they are most extreme.
Having split into four, their strength is only about seventy to eighty percent of their peak, so they want to absorb each other. If they kill one another, they can merge their insights and strengths. That way, their future achievements could be higher. Of course, now is not the time for them to merge into one."
"Oh? What would happen if two of them merged now?" asked Ye Feng.
"If they merged into one now, they would possess the combat power of an ordinary early-stage Divine Realm fighter, and their cultivation speed would substantially increase. If all four merged into one, they might even break through to the mid-stage of the Divine Realm!" Asuka Hana explained.
"Oh, then why don't they merge?" Ye Feng was very puzzled.
Asuka Hana explained, "As I said earlier, each of the four has their own personality and thoughts. Every one of them wants to be the last one remaining, so they won't easily merge together, and now isn't the optimal time to do so."
"Hmm, I see…" Ye Feng then refrained from asking further.
Ye Feng then came up with new plans.
Soon, the next morning arrived, at 6:30 AM, Ye Feng and the others had already gathered in the Outer Heaven plaza.
This time, leaving Luoying to eliminate Alien Shadow were Ye Feng, the Fist Emperor Commander, and the Storm Envoy.
The Sword Emperor Commander said, "Ye Feng, you must be careful on this mission. The leader of the Alien Shadow has reached the Legendary Great Perfection, maybe even matching my power at the Half-step Divine Realm!"
Ye Feng nodded slightly, "Don't worry, I will complete the mission."
Ye Feng was also familiar with Alien Shadow, a wicked organization committed to numerous illegal acts, and mercilessly taking lives; naturally, he would show no mercy.
The Sword Emperor Commander felt that Ye Feng's power was not much different from his own. Even if the leader of Alien Shadow was at the Half-step Divine Realm, with two Legendary Great Perfection fighters like the Storm Envoy and Fist Emperor Commander, facing the Alien Shadow leader wouldn't be impossible.
The Sword Emperor Commander looked at the Storm Envoy and Fist Emperor Commander and said, "This time, Ye Feng is your commander. You must follow his orders completely, understand?"
"Understood!" The Storm Envoy and Fist Emperor Commander nodded.
By now, they were convinced by Ye Feng's capabilities. After seeing Ye Feng defeat Saito Hideki in three moves while injured and not fearing the Sword Emperor Commander, the Storm Envoy was entirely impressed by Ye Feng's strength and respected him greatly.
As for the Fist Emperor Commander, he recognized Ye Feng's strength as well, and considering that Ye Feng was likely to become the Second God's son-in-law, making him a figure second only to one above tens of thousands in Luoying, he dared not show disrespect.
"Alright, then I won't say more. I hope you have a smooth journey and return safely!" the Sword Emperor Commander told Ye Feng and the others.
Asuka Hana also looked at Ye Feng, saying gently, "Ye Feng-kun, I'll be waiting for you. Come back soon!"
