Chapter 224
Yamen coldly laughed and looked on in disdain at the group before him . He had sealed their fates the moment he called Schiller over . He was feeling rather amused at how these people were clueless as to their imminent fate .
At this moment, Chu Feng's diamond chakram was ready to attack at a moment's notice .
The black yak was incredibly nervous . He was waiting for Schiller to approach and enter the ambush lain by the Manchurian Tiger and the Undead Phoenix . The first strike of the ambush would decide the flow of the ensuing battle .
Even Yellow Ox was unable to keep his calm . His small face was tense with anxiety . Their plan today involved a fair amount of risk, but it was worth the gamble . It would be even more dangerous if they waited for Schiller to completely recover from his wounds—by that time, he would be free to assassinate them at will .
In the distance, the Manchurian Tiger and the Phoenix King were lying in wait . They had long since sealed their aura and breathing, ready to charge out and deliver a fatal blow .
They knew Schiller was on his way . The slight fluctuation Schiller had carelessly emitted couldn't hide from the two experts with six severed shackles .
Schiller's incomparably cold gaze was focused on the distant mountain . Unless some peerless experts were guarding them in secret, it would be difficult for them to escape his grasp even if they had wings .
He was confident that not many people would be able to deter him at his level . The mutants of the lower realm were like frail scarecrows to him .
With a swoosh, he moved out in large strides . He glided along the forest's edge and charged through as if the land was growing ever smaller in the face of his incredible speed . He was about to start a satisfying massacre!
Schiller was no longer his old amiable self as he was back at the Vatican . His smile, at the moment, was cold and cruel .
If anyone asked him who he hated the most, it would definitely have to be Chu Feng . The latter had blasted his medicinal garden apart and destroyed his Myriad Spirit Blood Medicine . He could still feel his heart bleeding to this very day .
If not for this incident, he would probably be the first ever expert with seven severed shackles .
Who, at that time, would be able to stand in his way? He would've taken one step ahead of the others and his every subsequent step would be unhindered . He would be able to look down on all the kings of this world and obtain the divine resources throughout the land .
As for the home of Myriad Gods, he was already so sure he had everything in his grasp . He was confident that he would be able to find his fortune there, but it turned out contrary to his expectations .
At this point, he had arrived on top of a small hill . He revealed himself and glanced down at Chu Feng and the two oxen .
"Those who destroyed my treasured medicine, don't even think about living!" he cursed under his breath .
He then leapt up from the small hill and tore through the air . It was as if he was flying close to the forest's edge and was just about to arrive at the target destination . He was about to kill his most hated enemy .
Yamen saw everything clearly since he was facing the direction from which Schiller was coming . He smiled brilliantly at Chu Feng and the rest, "Everyone, take care on the road . "
He was extremely conceited . He was fully confident that these people wouldn't dare target him with Schiller breathing down their necks . He anticipated that Chu Feng and the two oxen would fall into a state of panic and attempt to escape before succumbing to Schiller's merciless onslaught .
But the unexpected happened at the next moment as things spun rapidly out of control .
While Schiller was flying atop the forest, a gargantuan tiger leapt up from below . His claws, bursting with an intense light brighter than the sun, crashed down upon Schiller's back .
Those claws were as large as a small hill—the force behind it was staggering—the direct force of this blow violently shook the land .
At the same time, the Undead Phoenix had also crept up . She was enshrouded in jet black flames as she rose from the woods and tore through the sky in but a moment, releasing a powerful strike towards Schiller from a different angle .
In the distance, Yamen was puzzled at the sudden developments . Someone actually dared to attack the all-powerful Schiller?! One had to know that even with the silver lamp, he was quite apprehensive of Schiller .
Boom!
Chu Feng immediately made his move . The ultimate results didn't matter at this crucial moment—it was the right time to eliminate this Yamen . They couldn't allow him to fully release the Flames of Ultimate Darkness; the consequences otherwise would be dire .
The white diamond chakram glowed with resplendent lights as it spun through the air at several times the speed of sound . The seen was overwhelming; it was like a comet shooting through the skies!
The weapon was extremely mysterious . It only weighed 64 kilograms originally but would grow to tens of thousands kilograms once injected with energy . It was a terrifying transformation .
As Chu Feng's strength increased, so did the amount of energy he could inject . This increased the diamond chakram's weight noticeably!
The diamond chakram broke the sound barrier and caused the air to explode . Like an exploding cloud of flames, it arrived carrying fatal destructive power .
Yamen was stunned . Everything was going according to plan just moments ago . He was secretly ridiculing the people before him, thinking they knew nothing of the fate that was soon to befall them .
He never expected the situation to change within seconds .
Despite all this, his reaction wasn't slow . He raised the silver lamp in front of him and shot out a stream of black flames to protect himself and burn the assailants .
But it seemed his combat experience wasn't nearly enough and he wasn't well prepared beforehand . At this moment, he could only defend in haste .
The diamond chakram arrived in a flash; its speed had exceeded a person's reaction time . It was emanating an aura of terror as it came hurtling towards his body .
"No!" Yamen cried out in alarm .
The black flames flickered momentarily before flowing towards his body to form a screen of light, shielding him from the incoming attack . Furthermore, the lamp itself moved to his front, dragging his hand along with it .
Yellow Ox's worries had come true—the extraordinary weapon could shield its owner . The flames released brilliant light which spread out to encompass the whole area in front of Yamen .
It was an alarming sight; the black fire flickered as it took on an increasingly corporeal metallic glow akin to a shield .
Yellow Ox inwardly cursed . Things were certain to go south if the other party was able to survive this blow and given time to release the flames of ultimate darkness . Their chances of survival, at that point, would be quite troubling .
Boom!
Contrary to expectations, a violent explosion took place as the diamond chakram came into contact with the metallic aegis, which was immediately penetrated .
It then crashed directly onto the silver lantern, releasing a blinding flash from their midst .
Black flames were still dancing on the silver lamp . Mysterious energy surged out in an attempt to immolate the diamond chakram, its temperature was terrifying .
Crack!
But at that moment, a crisp sound was transmitted from the lamp, much like the sound of shattered porcelain . Cracks gradually filled its surface before the whole treasure fractured into four or five pieces .
"Ah!"
Yamen cried out in misery . His hand grasping the silver lantern had turned into a bloody mist which evaporated almost immediately . Not even bones remained .
Yellow Ox was flabbergasted . That magical weapon was extremely powerful, but the diamond chakram had forcefully shattered it .
He felt he had underestimated the bright little bracelet . It was even more astonishing then he had expected .
In truth, Chu Feng had long since felt the diamond chakram's might increased as he poured greater amounts of energy into it . He knew it was much more powerful than in the past .
Buzz!
Droning sounds were being emitted from the diamond chakram . It had been temporarily halted by the impact against the lamp, and its speed had decreased a fair bit . But that wasn't enough to stop the spinning chakram as it shot through and blew Yamen's shoulder apart, causing the remaining arm to fall to the floor .
Yamen screamed in agony as he staggered back, his whole body drenched in blood . He was now sweating buckets and the unbearable pain almost made him faint .
"God's messenger? What are you without that lamp?!" Chu Feng landed in front of him and gave him a hard kick .
With a thump, the kick landed on Yamen's lower jaw and immediately sent him flying .
The black yak rushed over and swung down with his violet long sword . In one annihilative stroke, he cut off the messenger's two lower limbs . The latter had now completely lost his combat abilities .
This was actually being quite merciful . They still wanted to keep him alive for questioning . His head would otherwise be like a splattered watermelon by now .
Chu Feng flew out immediately to search for his diamond chakram . He found it very soon using his spiritual energy and with a swoosh, it was back in his hands .
Yamen's face was deathly pale as he lay barely conscious on the ground . He was full of indignation . He was previously mocking them, thinking they were pitiful bugs that were about to die, but now it was him who had been defeated by their counterattack .
