Chapter 618: The Tomb’s Secret
Lightning crackled around Ye Feng’s body as he crouched. Flames erupted from his narrowed eyes and coated his blade in a sizzling sheath of swirling vapor.
Opposite him, Adam raised his hand. The wind created by the spinning arrows tugged at his sleeve, threatening to rip it off as he sneered. "Two elements? Wow! Almost as impressive as my dozens."
"Shut up!" Ye Feng scrutinised the different elements sparkling on the arrows. "The arrows are real, the elements mere illusions, a vain attempt to distract me. I’ve seen through your pathetic deceptions." His voice grew chilly. "Now die."
He watched Adam tilt his head with a confused expression. But he wouldn’t fall for it. There was no record of anyone born with more than seven affinities in the realm’s long history, much less dozens. He’d be a fool to believe they were real.
This farce ended now. It was time to claim his destiny, surpass the legendary Prometheus, and become humanity’s new guiding light. And everything would be possible because of this blessed land.
Lightning charred the ground beneath his feet as he lunged like a voracious beast.
BOOM
The deafening shockwave created by his charge blasted dust and rubble in every direction. Winds roared in his ears, locks of purple hair wiping his face as he pierced the air like a lightning bolt.
Time seemed to slow to a crawl as Adam’s sky-blue eyes followed Ye Feng’s movements. Though much faster than him, he observed the burning blade calmly. After all, he didn’t need to move to counterattack.
With a thought, the thousands of arrows hovering behind him exploded with terrifying momentum. The air quacked, burning, freezing, vibrating, and sizzling as streaks of multi-colored elements flashed like shooting stars.
He saw Ye Feng’s eyes widen and heard his frustrated curse as he tried to push through by dodging and deflecting the arrows amidst a cacophony of clangs and a rain of sparks.
