Tempest of the Stellar War

Chapter 1280: Sage Arts + Lie Flame Technique

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“What is Lie Xin doing? Her aura seems different, unless it’s her hidden ability, but it seems to not be enough!” Si Jiali said.

It could be felt by everyone – the new energy did not seem that strong. On the SIG battlefield, there were too many experts, and energy of this level had appeared throughout the competition numerous times. If this was Lie Xin’s trump card, it seemed like she was too naive.

After Si Jiali said her words, she went silent, as she saw Jondi Lilick’s expression... Weird...

When ancient martial arts came to be, every country was researching, improving, or adjusting, and formed unique martial techniques. Be it Aslan, Arbiter, or Manalasuo, there was one basic principle: the strongest martial technique was of 128 points!

Lie Xin, what was she... trying to do?

Trying to merge Sage Arts and the Lie Flame Technique?

What a crazy idea...

On the field, Eve Litt could clearly feel and understand what Lie Xin was trying to do. If this was a normal match, she would not care – she would wait for her opponent to finish their preparations, but now, it was a battle, one concerning her country’s pride!

To wait? Or not to wait?

Eve Litt faced a dilemma. For herself, she hoped to see what Lie Xin would become, as she had confidence in herself. But in terms of strategy, she should attack, and not wait for Lie Xin to finish.

The tremendous energy was continuously absorbed, and this had nothing to do with the flames. Hence, Eve Litt is unable to stop it. At the same time, this was the first time such a weird technique and energy had been seen.

Amongst the various techniques, the Sage Arts were undoubtedly mysterious, focusing on spiritual power level, which complemented the Lie Flame Technique.

But fusing both techniques was not that simple, and it was incredibly dangerous. Lie Xin was staring death in the eye.

The expressions of the Lie family’s leaders were solemn. They did not think that this was the right time for Lie Xin to try and break through, They are able to wait – they had been waiting for so long that a few more years would not matter. As members of the Lie family, they knew that there were many things that were left up to fate; Lie Xin had the right to make her own decisions.

Today was the day where success or failure was determined.

In the midst of yin and yang energy, the small flame was flickering, and it seemed so weak that it would extinguish any moment.

This was Lie Xin’s fire of life.

Bang...

Thunder echoed through the sky. Even though not a single a cloud could be seen, the sky suddenly darkened, and it seemed like the sky was about to collapse. A solemn atmosphere shrouded the arena, and everyone felt like they were burdened with a heavy weight.

Wang Zheng and Achilles looked at each other. This... was too much. Be it the Primordial Regression Technique or the Heavenly King Arts, they were both 128 points. They knew what Lie Xin was trying to do, but was she crazy? This was something unthinkable. It had been a few hundred years, and no one had heard of combining the Lie Flame Technique and the Sage Arts!

Lie Xin gritted her teeth. Forcefully merging the two techniques was indeed crazy. Due to Wang Zheng, that lunatic and a**hole, she had no idea which screw of hers got lose that made her join Saruman Snake. Indeed, she had been greatly influenced by him.

This was how much she desired to win this match. The process may just be a process, but she hoped to win, and be a part of the victory.

This was Lie Xin’s pride!

Rumbling...

Lightning began to strike towards the horizon. It seemed like it was preluding to something. Eve Litt felt that something was wrong and that she should not wait any further!

Bang...

The two flame whips began to burn with endless flames infused into them, and in the next moment, the flame whips struck.

BOOM BOOM...

Lie Xin’s mech remained motionless. This was a moment of breakthrough; not to mention move, even a distraction would be disastrous. Lie Xin had to be crazy. Did she think that her opponent would just stand by and watch her?

However, the two attacks were deflected by the swirling yin and yang energy, and the energy currents began to shake violently.

Lie Xin’s body shuddered. As blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, whatever her opponent was trying to do, it made sense. However, the problem was, what was she going to do?

Within Lie Xin’s body, the two streams of energy showed no hints of fusing. The Sage Arts were merely at a basic level as the time spent on them was not long, but due to Lie Xin’s foundation in the Lie Flame Technique, she did not face much difficulty. However, she did not have much growth either, and most of the time, she used it to adjust her spiritual power. Spiritual power was Lie Xin’s weakness. In this aspect, the Sage Arts could help in her conditioning, and that was all. Until some time back, a proposal came from the Lie family, stating the plans for the Heavenly Flame Technique, but this was for Lie Xin to mentally prepare herself, take note for her routine training, and gather experience.

However, Lie Xin ended up trying to force it now.

When would be the best opportunity? Perhaps even till death, she would not encounter such an opportunity!

If she wanted to do it, the time was now!

Boom, boom, boom...

The moment she struck, she attacked with no hesitation, but her opponent’s defense seemed to be far greater than what she expected. She could no longer let things continue. As the flame whips continued their attack, the temperature in the arena was rising, and the audience felt the extreme heat.

Lie Xin continued gritting her teeth. It would seem like the attacks were not landing on her body, as her focus was on the insides of her body, where the Lie Flame Technique and the Sage Arts were shaking, forming a huge energy field. The energy did not belong to her, it was the energy from the violent repulsion between both techniques that were being forced to fuse.

The repulsion seemed like it was going to tear Lie Xin apart.

But she had to endure it!

Eve Litt found the problem as well. If this continued, it would not be good. She had no idea what Lie Xin was trying to achieve, or if it was even possible. But Saruman Snake had made too many risky moves, and she could not let this continue any further!

From a distance, endless flame energy flowed into the laser swords, forcibly straightening the whips. If she was unable to break through it, she could only pierce it!

The two laser swords pierced through the formless Yin Yang energy field. Lie Xin, who was already under tremendous pain, felt her body being pierced by the laser swords.

Eve Litt’s expression was worse. Before she could feel the joy of piercing through the energy field, she felt the backlash of her attack, and she could not even react.

She vomited a mouthful of blood, but Eve Litt was a strong-willed woman. She continued to feed her laser swords with flame energy. Even if it ended in mutual destruction, she would never admit defeat!

At this point in time, Lie Xin was drained by the attacks. In a direct confrontation like this, Lie Xin could not be compared to Eve Litt, as Eve Litt was able to hold her ground. Eve Litt directly pierced through and crushed the last bits of strength left in Lie Xin.

In this moment, the Lie Flame Technique and the Sage Arts felt a sense of danger. The host body was at risk, and the two techniques spent most of their energy fighting each other. The purpose of techniques was to enhance life force, and now that life force was being destroyed. The two streams of energy worked together to fend off the attack.
