Condemning the Heavens Chapter 473

Chapter 473: 473
For a spirit, breakthroughs were never accompanied by bottlenecks, as long as there was enough energy, they would grow indefinitely .
Even progressing from the Heavenly Saint to the King rank was not something that difficult for a spirit . .
When humans and beasts reached the King rank, they would have to transform their body into a spiritual body, but spirits already had spiritual bodies, hence, while they needed excessive amounts of energy, they did not have to transform their bodies .
Xue Wei was aware that their bodies would be changed when they became King ranked experts, but he was not sure how . He did not know much about the ranks above the Saint rank, but now was not the time to consider it either .
He made a mental note of asking Lan later about the breakthrough into the King rank in detail, in order to learn everything so that they could prepare their own breakthrough .
But right now, the battle was still ongoing, and while Xue Wei was wondering if Bai Tianyi and Luoluo would reach the King rank, others began dying from having their energy tainted by the absorbed soul power .
As they realized that even a little tainted energy was deadly, many stopped their wanton absorption of the energy, but it was often too late for these experts . Many got killed even faster than before, causing the dense soul power in the surroundings to become even thicker .
It was at the point where Bai Tianyi had entered a frenzy . His eyes were red; a great smile was spilling over from his lips, and laughter ran in his surroundings .
Two massive swords were created from spiritual energy, and they were harvesting lives left and right .
He was descending into madness, but Xue Wei had no intention of stopping him . He understood the feeling of being drunk on killing, and Bai Tianyi was not entirely without rational thoughts yet .
He had not touched the members of the Demon Phoenix Continent yet, and the massive swords were collecting only the lives of their enemies .
Also, while Bai Tianyi seemed very controlled in everyday life, Xue Wei knew that he was actually just holding back his emotions .
He had been pursuing immortality, and when he finally became an artificial spirit, he was struck down by the men whom he considered friends, but who were also his rivals while being human .
He had been suppressed as a sword spirit for thousands of years, watching as maidens kept getting sacrificed time and time again to keep him imprisoned .
Being imprisoned for so long, it was only natural that he needed to vent his emotions, but he had never found a suitable situation before now .
It was not only Bai Tianyi who was running amok, Luoluo was also making frozen statues all around her, and her chilling smile made everyone try to run away from her .
She was young, but she was a real terror on the battlefield . No matter who she came across, they all ended up as a frozen statue .
Where Bai Tianyi killed instantly, Luoluo let them experience the feeling of their lives slowly ebbing away from them . While both were extraordinarily ferocious and frightening, they continued their massacre with no fear .
Their strength was snowballing while killing due to the sheer amount of soul power on the battlefield . Luoluo was already a Sky Saint at the eight layer, while Bai Tianyi was a Heavenly Saint at the first layer .
Xue Wei could not help but wonder what would happen if one of the King or Emperor level experts died and they absorbed their remaining soul power .
However, this was an impossible thought . The King and Emperor ranked experts would not allow others to benefit from their deaths, especially not since their bodies had turned into spiritual bodies, and they would be relying on Soul Power to improve their bodies .
Xue Wei observed the battlefield with all his focus . He had previously tried to rescue the Vermilion Bird Clan Members, but because of the Xiyang prince, he had been interrupted .
He was not willing to give up on the rescue mission, and he was contemplating the current movements of the battlefield . Many had forgotten about the cage filled with birds, and the battle was moving into a stalemate .
Although many were dying, it was on both sides of the armies, and the blood flowed freely .
Many were stuck in the bloody mud, and this caused the battle to become even more desperate . No matter how strong they were, they needed to consider the ground under their feet .
Some lost their balance; others lost their focus . Some fell in the mud, and others were pushed down .
There was not even one clean person left in the entire battlefield, and the desperation of the people who fought was overwhelming .
Xue Wei did not care too much about the actual battle . He knew that what truly determined the winner and the loser was the battle between the Kings and Emperors .
If the Demon Phoenix Continent's King and Emperor's won the battle, they would wipe out the Xiyang Continent's army . And the opposite would happen, should they lose the battle .
This was a gamble with his life, and Xue Wei knew it was risky, but he did not regret his choice .
He had to improve his strength, and rewards came risks . The riskier the situation, the better the results he would gain .
Forbidden Rush!
Taking a deep breath, Xue Wei began moving with his movement technique . He was heading towards the cage, but this time he was not getting entangled with the people on the way .
The birds were awake now, and while they were injured, they were able to move, but they dared not make others aware of their current situation as they might be retaliated against .
