The Geared Immortal

Chapter 499

/*unedited*/

A huge gigantic flying creature is currently terrorizing the whole area of the wall. Long streams of flames and sharp wind blades are currently assaulting the walls and the ships trying to dock on them. Although the ships tried to retaliate by firing their cannons, the agile creature easily dodges them with ease. Some would hit it, but those projectiles are not strong enough to stop it from its rampage.

Suddenly, everyone noticed two figures flying towards the creature.

"Those people are crazy." someone exclaimed.

"I think the woman is an infant soul realm expert."

"Ha! She's crazy and suicidal. Does she think she can defeat a level 6 wyvern with her powers alone?"

"At least she is brave enough to face it; you have the nerve to scoff at her… Why don't you go up there?"

"Hey, look! The guy following behind him… He… He does not have an aura undulation… is he a magus warrior?"

"That's impossible, magus warriors can't fly. They would always wear those machines…"

Those who saw the two began to discuss amongst themselves while trying to defend against the incoming attack from the beast. But the battle didn't stop as the wyvern still rampages while trying to attack all the ships and defenses it could see.

"Miss Mai, I think you should know something…"

"What is it, Master Ji?"

"That thing is not acting alone…"

"I know, it's being controlled. And the person behind it is a domain master too."

"You noticed?"

"Hihi… Thanks to you, my spiritual sense seems to have grown stronger by leaps and bound… I can't thank you enough for your help."

"No, this is all your hard work… I just accidentally gave you a push… Haha…"

The two converses leisurely while floating in the air and watches the beast now too far from them. Suddenly the beast shifted its gaze towards their direction.

"Oh, I think it noticed us. It's time to move then…" Shin Jiao said as he took out a flat 1-meter-long sword with a palm-size thick flat blade.

Then he suddenly flew towards the wyvern that is not on guard. When the wyvern saw a man flying towards it, it suddenly took a deep breath and with a powerful blow, spews out a long tongue of flame.

When Shin Jiao saw the flame, he immediately dodges to the right and flew to that direction while still closing in towards the beast.

 But the creature seems to be intelligent enough to guide its flame breath while using its wings to send out multiple wind blades to Shin Jiao's direction. A frantic look appears on Shin Jiao's face as he flew downwards to the left trying to evade the two attacks.

The flame breath has stopped but the wind blades continuously bombarded Shin Jiao as his figure dance in the air agilely while trying to dodge each of the blades. But no matter how fast he dodges, he was still caught by some of the blades of the sharp wind and his robe began to show some tearing on them.

This scene made the people on the ground watching feel a bit dismayed. They thought that the guy was brave enough to face the beast and have the strength to defeat it. But upon seeing the condition of the person, everyone felt dejected.

This situation made the wyvern excited as it continuously threw out wind blades. Suddenly, Shin Jiao draws a sword from his ring and sent it flying towards one of the wind blades, and …

Bang!!!

A loud explosion happened which then covered the whole sky with dark gray smoke. 

Everyone was confused as they can't even see what is happening. Even Yao Mai showed a confused look on her face as even after using her spiritual sense, she could not see what's inside the smoke.

Then suddenly a loud roar was heard and another loud explosion occurs.

Boom!!!

Then three figures were seen falling from the skies. Shin Jiao was one of them, then the wyvern, and then another person came falling.

Everyone can see that there is a large hole on the wyvern's neck and from the looks of it, it is clear that it is already dead.

Suddenly, everyone saw the man wearing clothes that have the same color as the wyvern's scale, twisted his body in the air, and suddenly darted towards the falling figure of Shin Jiao.

The sinister look on his blood-covered face seems to indicate that the man is crazed.

"You bastard! You killed my pet! I will kill you! I will kill all of you!" he shouted in a crazed manner.

With his right hand forming a claw, he is prepared to catch and strangle the neck of Shin Jiao who seems to be lifelessly falling to the ground.

"Oh, no! That guy is now dead!"

"Tsk… it's was all futile… he should have asked the woman for help and not attack mindlessly by himself."

"At least he saves a lot of people… who would have known that the wyvern is being controlled by that despicable person."

The people began to discuss what is happening in the air as they watch.

"No! Master Ji!" Song Xie shouted in horror.

Even the guards and the other people on the ship showed a concerned look on their face. They saw how the young man fought so hard against the wyvern. Although they knew not if it was just a fluke or not, at least the guy was able to kill the wyvern.

As the weirdly clothes person neared Shin Jiao and can't wait to break his neck in his anger, a thin energy film suddenly appear.

When the man saw this, his expression immediately changes.

"Not good! This is domain… How? How could you have a domain?" the man shouted as his expression turned pale while shifting his gaze towards a beautiful woman slowly floating towards him.

The man is a nascent realm cultivator and is also a domain holder, but his domain is not complete and is only effective against the beast. Hence he felt helpless when he was suddenly enveloped inside the domain of another.

"I don't think you can hold me in your domain… you are just a weak infant soul realm cultivator. Let me break your weak domain then." He said as he forces himself to control his body and try to break the hold of Yao Mai's domain.

But to his horror, he could not.

Yao Mai just holds him in place as she slowly floated towards the ground along with Shin Jiao.

"This is not possible! This is not possible… I am the only domain user that is in the lower realms… How could a no-name person like you defeat me!" cried the man as he tried to break the domain holding him.

"Master Ji, please stop playing around… I can't hold on anymore…" suddenly Yao Mai said with a knitted brow.

Although she can now control her domain for a long time, it is not that strong enough to hold a nascent realm cultivator's strength for long. Her strength is not yet strong enough to hurt a nascent realm in a normal attack. Hence he didn't dare make a move on the guy.

"Sigh… I was wounded you know…" Shin Jiao suddenly said as he slowly stood up.

Unnoticed by everyone but the once tattered looking robe on Shin Jiao has now returned to its original shape as if nothing happened. This is the camouflage effect of the armor suit he is currently wearing. 

"You… you're not hurt! How? How could this be?" the man suddenly showed a panic look.

"Hehe… I was just playing around so that she can also do her part you know…" Shin Jiao said as he suddenly flicks his sword in the air and then when its handle was in front of him flicks his finger towards it.

Clang!

The loud sound of his finger hitting the butt of the sword reverberated as the sword suddenly flew towards the man who is being held by Yao Mai's domain.

The sword flew like a lightning and immediately stabbed through the man's chest. This did not stop as it flung the man's figure towards the dark gray wall and pinned his corpse there.

Disbelief and unwillingness can be seen in his eyes as he died after being pinned at the wall.

When the people watching this scene saw this everyone cheered.

"That was a bit over the top isn't it?" Yao Mai asked as her forehead was filled with beads of sweats.

She clearly feels how strong that simple flick from Shin Jiao was. It could not even compare to the strength of the man. As everything happened inside her domain, she is now clear on how strong this Master Ji is.

"Let's go, we are done here…" Shin Jiao flicks his hand and the sword suddenly flew out of the man's corpse and directly went inside Shin Jiao's ring.

When they reached their ship, the people who entered it to hide from the wyvern attack showed fear and reverence towards the two powerful figures that defeated the wyvern on their own.

"Master! You… you can use your domain now without a problem! You are truly an awesome master!" Song Xie said in exhilaration.

This only means that her master is now a very powerful cultivator under the nascent realm. It is known that those who can use domain are far revered than normal nascent realm cultivators. And those who can use a domain under the world nascent realm are only 1 out of a million people. However, no one heard that someone below the nascent realm can use a domain. Hence everyone is looking at Yao Mai with great respect and reverence.

Even the guards are looking at her with the utmost respect in their eyes.

"Master…" Shin Jiao cupped his hand and bowed towards Yao Mai.

This was followed by the rest of the people. Inside and outside of the warship they are in.

Yao Mai was stupefied at this as she did not expect to gain so much attention in her lifetime.. So she is at a loss on what to do.
