Chapter 2373: If You Don’t Have the Courage to Die, How Can You Have the Glory to Live?

In the outside world.


The next day.


Han Fei came out of his Origin Star and went straight to the 101st island, which was the competition area for the Sky Opening Realm.


“Brother Fei, here, here.”


Cao Mengde and the others waved at Han Fei. They knew that Han Fei had been cultivating in seclusion recently, so they didn’t disturb him. At this moment, they were all eagerly waiting for Han Fei, who was their savior.


Whether or not they could pass the fourth round of qualifiers depended on Han Fei.


“Han Fei, here.”


Feng Xingliu was staying with them, and Feng Yu looked at them from afar with a look of disdain. All of them, including Han Fei, were despised by Feng Yu.


Han Fei said, “Hey! You’re early!”


Wu Bufan said, “Brother Fei, we’ve been waiting here for a long time. Well, Brother Fei, let me tell you something.”


Then, Wu Bufan said via voice transmission, “Brother Fei, it’s up to you whether we can survive this time.”


When Wu Bufan finished speaking, the others also looked at Han Fei and nodded slightly. It seemed that they had all placed their hopes on Han Fei.


Han Fei’s heart did a flip. At this moment, Wu Bufan, Cao Mengde, and the others all looked relatively solemn.


This made Han Fei feel that something was wrong. This fourth round of qualifiers was probably not simple.


He looked around.


Compared to the first time he came to the 101st island, this time, there were only about 160,000 people.


Logically speaking, there were only 160,000 people left, so they could directly participate in the arena matches. As long as there was one round, half of the people could be eliminated. Besides, in this round, there were many relatively ordinary people. Of course, at this time, no matter how ordinary they were, they were not weak.


But now, the Divine Capital Dynasty had their own thoughts. When the referee appeared here, everyone knew that there must be a new rule.


The referee’s face was as indifferent as ever. Without hiding anything, he said, “First of all, congratulations to all the contestants present. You can pass the first three rounds of qualifiers and come to the fourth round. But next, I will tell you a cruel fact. In the fourth round of qualifiers, there will be a nearly 20% chance of death. Therefore, if you want to quit now, you can choose to quit. Once you choose, you can’t go back on your word.”


Buzz!


However, before this, there had been rumors that there might be deaths in the qualifiers. Originally, most people didn’t believe it. This world needed strong masters. Although in most places in the Sea Realm, there were just ordinary survival games, some places were still relatively cruel, such as the Sky Crater World where people fought all year round, or the exploration of distant stars.


Furthermore, Sky Openers were not Sea Establishers. Of the 160,000 people, even if only 10% died, there would be 16,000. 20% meant more than 30,000 Sky Opening Realm cultivators. How many Sea Establishment realm cultivators would it take to produce 160,000 Sky Openers?


Furthermore, these more than 30,000 people were not weaklings who had just opened the sky. They had been selected through the wilderness auditions of the East Sea Divine Realm and the three qualifiers of the Divine Capital Dynasty. Which one of them wasn’t a Heavenly Talent? How could the Divine Capital Dynasty tolerate so many Heavenly Talents dying in just a qualifier?


Sure enough, someone immediately questioned, “It’s just a competition. Everyone came here to grow and fight other cultivators to verify themselves and learn to grow. Why is there a mortality rate?”


“That’s right! We’re all in the Sky Opening Realm and have entered the Star Transformation Realm.”


“Isn’t this a joke?”


“It’s just a qualifier. There aren’t even any rewards. Why is there a mortality rate?”


For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar.


However, the referee was unmoved and shouted, “I will tell you the reason after you make your choice. Now, since you are here, please choose whether or not to participate in the fourth round of qualifiers.”


At this moment, the aura of the referee emerged, and a terrifying suppressing pressure suddenly suppressed everyone.


“Hiss ~”


Many people were shocked. Even Han Fei was shocked. This referee suppressed the entire audience alone? Is he a perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator?


Definitely not.


He was a Monarch.


Immediately, Han Fei couldn’t help taking a breath. F*ck, the Divine Capital Dynasty sent a Monarch to be the referee. Before this, no one had noticed it.


Even Han Fei didn’t notice it.


This powerful Monarch forced everyone present to make a choice without knowing the rules before the game.


Most people could guess the reason. This Monarch wanted to see if they had the courage to face the fourth round of qualifiers without knowing anything.


However, most people felt that courage was courage but it was not as important as their lives. They had already entered the Star Transformation Realm. Twenty percent of them would die, which would be more than 30,000 people. In the wilderness, how many years would it take to kill so many people? Even if it wasn’t 10,000 years, it would be thousands of years!


However, the referee didn’t care. There were only two paths for them now. They could either break through or leave.


Finally, someone couldn’t withstand the pressure. Perhaps it was because they knew that they were actually weaker than most people here. After all, the people left behind weren’t all strong masters.


Based on his own strength and the overall strength of the remaining people, that person felt that it was probably difficult for him to compete with these people. There were only 160,000 people left, which meant that for every three people he met, there might be one ranking among the top 50,000. This was too f*cking dangerous.


Therefore, someone shook his head. “My lord, I quit.”


A man shook his head. He came here for opportunities, not to die. Now he didn’t see any opportunities, but he was going to die first. Who was willing to do this?


He felt that even if he quit now, he could still watch the arena game. It would be equally exciting. He could learn a lot of things and get a lot of inspiration from it. Why should he risk his life to fight for the unknown?


He had stayed until now just because he had a strong captain in the previous team. Even if he passed the fourth round, how many rounds could he fight in the ring?


Therefore, this person was very determined.


As soon as someone made an example, many people immediately followed suit. Most of these people were the weaker members of their teams in the third round of qualifiers. They were not confident to face the fourth round of qualifiers.


However, some people were different.


For example, Ye Lingling, although she was no longer in Han Fei’s team, she saw that Han Fei, Cao Mengde, and the others didn’t move at all. It was natural for Han Fei to stay, but Cao Mengde, Wu Bufan and the others were all famous playboys in the Divine Capital Dynasty. She had asked around these days and these people were described as trash.


In addition, in the third round of qualifiers, Ye Lingling had observed them. Even if they took out their godly weapons, their strength was not very strong, but they still dared to stay. Why didn’t she dare?


It was impossible that the fourth round was also a team competition. It would be meaningless to compete like this. For them, the fourth round might be very dangerous. However, these big shots still chose to go. This meant that even if the fourth round was dangerous, there was a reason why they had to attend it.


In conclusion, the pros had outweighed the cons. Even if she would die, she had to have a try.


Unfortunately, most people were not as observant as Ye Lingling.


Voices rose and fell in the crowd. After half an hour, more than 13,000 people had proposed to quit.


As for the rest, although many people were hesitating, they felt that even if the fourth round was dangerous, it wouldn’t be so dangerous. Among the remaining people, there were still many people who had just entered the Star Transformation Realm. If it was easy to die in this realm, why was the death rate only 20%?


Therefore, they felt that the rules definitely protected them.


At this time, the referee shouted, “Anyone else want out?”


The Monarch referee roared three times, and less than a hundred people chose to quit. Then, the referee said coldly, “Since no one quits, you can’t quit even if you want to now. Now let me tell you about the fourth round of qualifiers.”


The referee said, “In the fourth round of the qualifiers, you will go to an extremely powerful Origin Ground. It’s a very dangerous place, a world of the strong, a world of demonic creatures. Isn’t it normal to have casualties in such a place? Twenty percent because you are all Star Transformation Realm cultivators. Otherwise, the mortality rate would be much higher.”


With that said, the referee sneered. “As for the reward, heh, this is an unopened Origin Ground. It itself is a reward. This Origin Ground contains countless treasures. As long as you survive, you won’t suffer any losses.”


“Hiss…”


“An Origin Ground?”


“An Origin Ground that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of Sky Opening Realm cultivators?”


“It’s actually undeveloped land. How many resources does such an Origin Ground have?”


“No wonder, no wonder there is a 20% chance of death. However, it’s a bargain!”


Those who stayed were overjoyed. Most of the people here had never been to the Origin Ground. Even if they had been there by chance, they would only experience the benefits of the Origin Ground. As for the mortality rate, well, most of the Origin Ground was hidden in the Sea of Stars. If they really went there, the mortality rate would be more than 20%!


Immediately, the people who stayed behind even cheered and rejoiced. This was because they had mostly come for opportunities, and this fourth round of qualifiers was an opportunity.


Those who chose to quit were dumbfounded after hearing the rules of the fourth round of the qualifiers. Humans die for wealth, birds die for food. They were not afraid of death, but they were afraid of meaningless deaths.


If they were told in advance that the fourth round of qualifiers was to explore a super Origin Ground, they didn’t think they would give up.


Looking at the more than 10,000 people who looked surprised and even disappointed, the referee looked over with pity and disdain.


He said, “Great Monarch East Martial once said that if you don’t have the courage to die, how can you have the glory to live? It’s impossible for you to become great.”


 




Chapter 2374: Hundred Herb Demon

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
Next to Han Fei, Cao Mengde couldn’t help but click his tongue. “What a bunch of fools. They’ve already passed the third round, but they just gave it up. Stupid!”


Wu Bufan said, “After all, not everyone is well-informed. If they were informed in advance, would so many people quit?”


Feng Xingliu: “You speak as if you’ve known in advance. Why didn’t you tell us that?”


Wu Bufan said, “Brother Xingliu, we didn’t know it, but guessed it. Besides, we can’t tell anyone about it, or we might be punished. But don’t worry, Brother Xingliu and Brother Fei. This is just the fourth round of qualifiers. It won’t be a problem for you.”


Han Fei’s heart stirred. “I think in this round of qualifiers, you are facing both a life-and-death crisis and a great opportunity, right?”


At this moment, Cao Mengde and the others couldn’t help but nod. That was the truth. If they really planned to idle around for the rest of their lives, it didn’t matter. They could choose not to participate and continue to fool around on the Dragon Fighting Street.


However, once people had great power, who would be willing to stay in the Divine Capital Dynasty for thousands or even tens of thousands of years? Could they stay for 10,000 years, 100,000 years, or a million years?


Humans had their own pursuits and wouldn’t be willing to live a mediocre life. Even the playboys would be tired of living a befuddled life someday.


Han Fei had seen them fight before. It could be seen that none of these guys had used their full strength. They were hiding their strength, waiting for a chance to turn the tables.


The main reason why they all came to Han Fei through Feng Xingliu was that Han Fei was ruthless, independent, and unscrupulous. In the Divine Capital Dynasty, he dared to challenge the Heavenly Race and even kill Yi Qianxing in public. This ruthlessness and reckless spirit was the main reason why they came to cooperate with Han Fei.


Han Fei didn’t ask further. It was up to them when they showed their fangs.


The referee continued, “Before the fourth round of qualifiers begins, everyone needs to know a few things.”


The fourth round of qualifiers would last for three years.


“You can’t leave the arena in advance for this round. You have to wait until the three-year period is up. Although you can enter your Origin Sea, you’d better wait at the Origin Ground when the three-year period is up. Otherwise, you’ll have to find a way back from the Sea of Stars.”


“By immersing your mind into the qualification token, you can obtain basic information about this Origin Ground.”


“You will have a mission indicator that you will know when you check your qualification token.”


After the referee finished explaining the rules, he waved his hand, and the entire floor of the black tower behind him seemed to be covered by misty light, turning into a teleportation channel. After everyone entered one after another, Han Fei and the others came directly to the Sea of Stars.


Obviously, the black tower sent them to the Sea of Stars. But above the Sea of Stars, a huge crack appeared here. Obviously, this was the channel to the so-called Origin Ground.


The referee announced, “The fourth round of the qualifiers is about to begin. Participants, please enter the arena immediately.”


Han Fei exchanged a glance with Feng Fei, and then with Feng Yu. Feng Fei didn’t intend to go with them. In fact, they didn’t need Feng Fei to carry them. Feng Fei was curious about what Little Junior Brother and Feng Xingliu were up to.

1

At the moment when they were about to enter, Cao Mengde handed Han Fei a few tokens and said, “Brother Fei, with this thing, you can roughly sense our locations.”


“Okay!”


With that, Han Fei accepted the items and walked into the entrance without hesitation.


Buzz!


The entrance to the Origin Ground controlled by the Divine Capital Dynasty had been arranged into a random teleportation entrance.


It was not that the Divine Capital Dynasty insisted on doing so. This was something they had carefully considered. Because the Origin Ground was very vast, if they gathered people at the beginning, they would inevitably be in groups.


It was not forbidden to form teams. However, if they invaded in teams, it was very likely to suffer the strongest backlash. It might even cause the death rate of the participants to be at least 30% or even 40%.


In that case, too many people would die. It was unnecessary.


When Han Fei appeared here, he found that there was no light here. The entire world was enveloped in darkness. He looked up at the sky and saw a dark moon with gray stars.


However, the light was almost negligible.


Instead, the spiritual plants growing in this world and some rocks and moss on the ground were emitting shimmers of different colors.


Han Fei slightly spread out his perception, but when he spread out his perception, all the spiritual plants seemed to sense him and were extinguished, leaving only infinite darkness.


Han Fei frowned slightly. Logically speaking, it was impossible for a spiritual plant of this level to discover his perception. Then, it could only be explained that his perception was a different kind of external power to this world, so ordinary spiritual plants were so sensitive to it.


But Han Fei didn’t care. He tried to extend his perception and found that the range of his perception was about one third of the normal range, which was more than 2 million kilometers.


However, Han Fei felt that it must be related to the rules of this world. Perhaps the two million kilometers here was equivalent to more than seven million kilometers in the Sea Realm.


Han Fei discovered that this was a pure dark world. The rivers, land, and sea here were intertwined and quite complicated and dense.


In Han Fei’s perception, hundreds of thousands of various spiritual fruits appeared. Unfortunately, he didn’t know what kind of spiritual fruit they were.


In his perception, some demonic plant-type creatures hiding in the darkness appeared. So far, the strongest one Han Fei had discovered was in the Sea Establishment realm.


However, the key was not that these were Sea Establishment realm demonic plants, but that there seemed to be too many powerful creatures in his perception range.


In his perception, there were more than 100,000 creatures, and except for those basic spiritual plants, most of them were above the Venerable realm.


In that case, weren’t there too many strong creatures here?


Han Fei didn’t immediately catch a creature to ask. After scanning this world with his perception, he immediately tried to communicate with his Origin Star and found that, as the referee said, he could enter it at any time.


“What’s the difference between this world and the Sea Realm?”


Han Fei sensed the surrounding energy. When this energy was absorbed, Han Fei frowned slightly. It seemed to conflict with regular energy. The energy in this world seemed to carry some poison, some inexplicable power that tried to change the body.


Han Fei slapped back and dispersed all the energy.


“No, it’s just that we’re not used to the rules of this world.”


Han Fei frowned slightly. According to the referee, this world would cause about a 20% probability of death. Then it was impossible for strong masters to fight without energy. Since energy couldn’t be absorbed from this world, what about from the void?


Han Fei stretched out his hand and tore open the void. Stepping into it, he found that the void here was also filled with this strange energy.


If the void didn’t work, he could only go to the Sea of Stars to absorb energy through his Origin Star.


Above the Sea of Stars, Han Fei tried it. Sure enough, the Sea of Stars was reliable.


However, although the Sea of Stars could provide energy, he couldn’t take his enemies into the Sea of Stars to fight, let alone his Origin Star.


And the 20% probability of death meant that there would be battles here. In addition to relying on the resources in his Origin Sea, Han Fei thought that there would definitely be a reasonable source of combat energy.


Han Fei immediately focused his eyes on the creatures here.


He grabbed at the air and a giant tree was pulled up by Han Fei. This kind of creature didn’t seem to have any sense of fear. As soon as Han Fei grabbed it, it extended countless branches at Han Fei. Unfortunately, Han Fei squeezed hard and the giant tree exploded. A large number of energy bodies appeared.


“Huh!”


With a thought, Han Fei found a normal source of energy.


Han Fei absorbed the energy in the bodies of creatures, which had no negative effect on him. But this surprised Han Fei. The creatures here were more like energy bodies, so when they died, they would turn into pure energy.


Han Fei realized that the creatures here had the ability to filter the negative energy impurities of this world. The energy absorbed by them was pure.


When this large amount of energy spread out, Han Fei immediately felt countless creatures move. Many demonic plants extended their tentacles towards here. Among them, a mushroom-like creature at the late-stage of the Sea Establishment Realm erupted with a spiritual penetration towards Han Fei.


“Humph ~”


Han Fei grabbed back, minced the spiritual penetration, and held the big mushroom in his hand. However, when Han Fei pulled it out of the ground, a strange creature was pulled out.


“Is this a humanoid?”


Han Fei saw that the big mushroom was actually just a head. Half of that thing’s body was underground. After pulling it out, he saw that it was a humanoid demonic plant with many colors on its body.


There was a mushroom on his head, fungal moss on his face, roots, hard lumps, and weird veins stuffed with spores below his neck.


In short, it was a weird humanoid monster made of thousands of plants.


In Han Fei’s eyes, information emerged.


<Name> Hundred Herb Demon


<Introduction> A demonic plant living in the Dark Demon Domain. Because it was polluted by the ominous power, it is seriously mutated. They devour all foreign species and even native species, allowing the mutation to evolve deeper. There’s a trace of ominous aura in its body. If you’re unfortunately contaminated, take the pure life origin crystal in its heart as the cure.


<Level> 97


<Quality> Ordinary


<Realm> Sea Establishment


<Contained Chaotic Qi> 1,048 wisps


<Battle Techniques> Poison Assault, Parasitic Technique, Hundred Herb Demon Seal


<Collectible> Life Origin Crystal


<Absorbable>


<Note> In this world polluted by ominousness, no spiritual plant is innocent.




Chapter 2375: Demon Domain

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
“A world polluted by ominousness?”


When Han Fei saw this message, he felt a little uncomfortable.


He pierced through the Hundred Herb Demon and dug out a pale green life origin crystal in his body.


If he guessed right, this life origin should be similar to that of the No. 3 Revived Place in the Chaotic Wasteland. The only difference was that the creatures in the No. 3 Revived Place weren’t polluted by the ominousness. However, all the creatures in this Origin Ground should have been polluted.


Han Fei couldn’t help but frown. It was impossible for the Divine Capital Dynasty not to know about this, but they said that in the entire Origin Ground, which was the venue for the fourth round of qualifiers, everything obtained was a benefit for the participants.


However, they hadn’t revealed any information about the ominousness to the contestants, but they had arranged for everyone to carry out the fourth round here. Why?


“Huh?”


Suddenly, Han Fei raised his eyebrows.


The Hundred Herb Demon was killed by Han Fei with one blow, Han Fei thought that it was over.


However, there was no Great Dao crack here. The Heavenly Dao here didn’t seem to be sad about the death of a Hundred Herb Demon, let alone happy about the return of a Great Dao. There was no movement here.


After the death of the Hundred Herb Demon, countless spiritual plants gathered around. These spiritual plants didn’t seem to know what fear was, nor did they seem to care that Han Fei was here. They rushed up and ate the body of the Hundred Herb Demon and the strange and messy demonic plant fragments.


Han Fei could clearly sense that after devouring the remnant body of the Hundred Herb Demon, these ordinary Venerable-level demonic plants were growing at a terrifying speed.


Han Fei frowned slightly and ignored it. He raised his hand and immersed his perception into the qualification token.


It seemed that after entering this Origin Ground, some information appeared in the qualification token.


When Han Fei immersed his perception into it, some information immediately emerged.


First of all, it introduced this world.


This was once an Origin Ground that was full of vitality. It was once filled with all kinds of powerful and friendly demonic plants. Later, because of the pollution of the dark power in the Sea of Stars, the creatures here gradually mutated. The demonic plants here became more and more bloodthirsty. They fought each other crazily and hunted all foreign species. In the end, they transformed in the direction of demonic plants. So we call it the Demon Domain.


In the Demon Domain, energy couldn’t be absorbed directly from the void, but could only be absorbed by killing demonic creatures. All creatures above the Monarch level in the Demon Domain had been killed, but the demonic creatures here didn’t need to rely on the Origin Sea to grow and advance. They had a unique way of advancement, which was to devour the darkness. The participants killed the demonic creatures and took the only life origin crystal in their bodies, which could increase their vitality and fuse with their Origin Stars to strengthen the life origin of their Origin Stars.


There were no absolute rules in the fourth round of qualifiers. The participants only needed to complete three of the tasks to pass the fourth round of tests.


The first task was to kill 10,000 Sea Establisher demonic creatures.


The second mission was to kill ten demonic creatures in the Sky Opening Realm.


The third task was to destroy a demonic source.


Notes: The demonic source is the source of the power of darkness. The demonic source is hidden in an unknown corner of this Origin Ground. Participants have to find it on their own. However, there is usually more than one powerful Sky Opening realm demonic creature guarding the demonic source. In addition, don’t be contaminated by the dark energy in the demonic source. Otherwise, there is a high chance for you to fall into the demonic Dao.


Special note: The resources in the Origin Ground can be brought back. The Divine Capital Dynasty can buy them back or deal with them themselves.


After reading this information, Han Fei was a little confused. This world was not right, or to be exact, there was something terribly wrong here.


The main reason was that the number of kills on the mission was too large. What did ten thousand Sea Establishment Realm cultivators mean? There were a total of 150,000 trial-takers. If each killed 150,000, did it mean 1.5 billion Sea Establishment Realm demonic creatures to be killed?


Weren’t there too many demonic creatures? So many that it was abnormal!


Also, one person killed ten demonic creatures of the Sky Opening realm. This meant that there were at least 1.5 million demonic creatures of the Sky Opening realm in this demonic domain for the participants to kill!


And if there were 1.5 million freaking Sky Opening realm demonic creatures in an Origin Ground, was this still an Origin Ground? How powerful was this Origin Ground?


Also, when did the Monarchs here get eliminated? There were so many demonic creatures in the Sky Opening Realm, but none of them became Monarchs now?


Han Fei’s impression of the Origin Ground had always been from the Chaotic Wasteland. It was already not bad to have one or two Sky Opening realm cultivators in an ordinary Origin Ground.


For example, he had once encountered Blood Fiend in the No. 3 Revived Place. However, there were only four Sky Opening realm creatures there!


Even if it was only a Revived Place, it might not have been like that in the first place. Judging from the number of blood fiends, there were at most a few thousand Sky Opening Realm cultivators in the past, and there shouldn’t be any Monarchs.


Compared to the Raging Sea, Han Fei thought that places like the No. 3 Revived Place were already very powerful.


However, compared to the Demon Domain, the No. 3 Revived Place was just garbage. Since the mission standard was to kill 10 Sky Opening realm creatures alone, it meant that there must be a million Sky Opening realm demonic creatures in this world to kill. Otherwise, it would be difficult for everyone to compete. Would they fight to snatch the demonic creatures? That would be contrary to the purpose of the fourth round of qualifiers.


Besides, in Han Fei’s perception, there were a total of…


Han Fei counted 17 Sea Establishment realm creatures in total, including those who were in good disguise. Yes, he was sure that he didn’t count wrong. Within this area of two million kilometers, there were 17 demonic creatures in the Sky Opening realm. Among them, the Hundred Herb Demon he had just killed was the strongest.


According to this number, there seemed to be a lot of demonic creatures in this demon domain. At least, it shouldn’t be difficult to kill 10,000 Sea Establisher-level demonic creatures.


Han Fei thought for a moment. The mission must be carried out. For most people, it was actually quite difficult to kill ten Sky Opening Realm demons, but it shouldn’t be difficult to kill ten thousand Sea Establishment realm demonic creatures.


Therefore, judging from the mortality rate, Han Fei thought that the main possibility of death was not from killing the demonic creatures of the Sky Opening realm, but destroying the demonic source.


There should be a lot of these things. Otherwise, how could they be enough for so many people?


Three years?


Han Fei smiled. Three years were given to complete the mission in order to take care of the relatively weak.


In addition, three years should be a benefit as the referee said.


But the best news for Han Fei was that he had three years. Time was too important for him now. It would take about four months for his Star Core to be born.


After the Star Core was born, it was naturally indispensable to inject vitality. And there were two ways to obtain vitality. One was to kill the participants, and the other was to kill the demonic creatures and snatch their life origin crystals.


As for how long it would take, it shouldn’t take long. It didn’t seem difficult to inject vitality into the Star Core.


The biggest problem was the last step, body tempering. Star transformation, molding ground veins, nurturing the Star Core, injecting vitality… All of this was prepared for Han Fei’s body tempering.


Once he condensed enough Golden Jade Marrow, he might be able to fight Zhao Qinglong again.


Han Fei came back to his senses and found that there was already a fierce battle here. Some strange mixed demonic creatures with hundreds of plants on their bodies were fighting and tearing crazily.


Han Fei was not in a hurry to attack. He was observing the attacking methods of these demonic creatures.


Different from the usual great techniques, this kind of demonic plant seemed to cultivate both the body and the soul. For example, Han Fei saw a guy with a humanoid body, a Ganoderma head, and roots arms. When he raised his hands, endless roots erupted. Those roots were like incomparably sharp spikes that could pierce the void, the barrier, and even the soul.


Han Fei also saw a beetle-like Hundred Herb Worm, which he just called that! Flying in midair, before being pierced by the roots, he condensed a soul barrier and tried to block the roots with his bark-like carapace. Although the rotten carapace looked like it could shatter with a touch, Han Fei was sure that its defense was good.


However, this carapace was easily pierced by the root tentacles as if it were a piece of paper. And the Ganoderma monster, which had won the battle, sucked away some power from the beetle monster through its tentacles.


Because Han Fei could clearly see that the colorful spore plants on the beetle monster withered immediately. The colorful monster immediately shriveled into a pool of black water.


Such a battle was breaking out frequently nearby.


It wasn’t until all the power of the Hundred Herb Demon was absorbed by these monsters that the surroundings returned to calm.


“Huh? Since they’re devouring each other, why do they stop fighting?”


Han Fei felt that the way the demonic creatures here grew up was very similar to the way the ominous creatures in the Chaotic Wasteland grew up. They both had a strange power of unlimited growth.


The only difference was that the ominous creatures would form a clan, so their strength would be lowered. Otherwise, it might not be difficult for them to grow to the Monarch level.


Han Fei pondered. If these demonic plants had the possibility of growing into Monarchs, why didn’t they kill them?


At this moment, Han Fei saw something approaching under the black mud in the distance.


Han Fei wanted to directly perceive what it was, but when his perception touched the ground here, he found that his perception couldn’t penetrate at all.


In lakes, part of the lake water blocked perception.


In the sea, his perception would stop at the seabed.


Han Fei didn’t notice this just now.


“Pu! Pu! Pu! Pu!”


Before the underground monster appeared, Han Fei saw that the creatures that were fighting crazily just now all bloomed with flowers. In the flowers, there were some black water droplets condensing.


It seemed that they were waiting for someone to collect the black water droplets.




Chapter 2376: Mutated Life Bodies

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
After seeing and understanding what kind of world this was through the qualification token, Han Fei was not very determined to complete the mission.


As the saying went, sharpening the knife wouldn’t delay the work of cutting firewood. In Han Fei’s opinion, these three missions weren’t difficult. Even if he wanted to find the demonic source, how could he not find it with the Vast Ocean Navigator?


Now, Han Fei was very curious. These strange demonic plants were like blooming flowers, offering the black water droplets they condensed as sacrifices.


However, the moment Han Fei saw the water droplet, he knew that it was not anything good. It was full of evil and looked like it was condensed from the so-called ominous aura.


The monster that came from underground in the distance didn’t show up after it came to this area. Instead, hundreds of thousands of straw-like tentacles emerged from the soil.


The tentacles stretched out and seemed to be able to sense where the black water droplet was. They quickly found the right place. However, when the tentacles absorbed the black water droplet, they would feed some strange spores to the demonic plants that were then quickly absorbed by the demonic creatures.


Han Fei clearly sensed that after these demonic plants obtained the strange spores, some strange hybrid plants immediately grew on their bodies.


Suddenly, there seemed to be a special demonic plant among the demonic plants in this area. Because it sacrificed more black water droplets, thousands of roots suddenly burst out of the demonic plant, piercing through the surrounding 30-odd demonic plants and quickly extracting the vitality and energy in their bodies.


As the surrounding demonic plants slowly withered, the aura of this demonic plant began to undergo a slight metamorphosis. Its momentum was increasing, and it probably wouldn’t take long for it to directly transform into a Sea Establishment realm demonic plant.


Han Fei couldn’t help but tremble. The demonic plant made a breakthrough so easily?


What exactly did the thing underground feed them?


This transformed demonic plant must have accumulated enough energy and received the strange nourishment, so it made a breakthrough. Its breakthrough didn’t cause the other demonic plants and demonic creatures around to attack it. It was as if it had reached the breakthrough first and then no other demonic plants could compete with it.


At this moment, Han Fei sensed that the creature that was digging underground seemed to want to leave. But how could Han Fei let it?


Han Fei took out his fishing hook, which immediately sank into the black mud.


On the other side, dozens of God Sealing Spears appeared around Han Fei.


With the experience of being sneak attacked by the Heavenly Race in the third round of the qualifiers, Han Fei forged tens of thousands of God Sealing Spear in case of emergencies.


At this moment, 36 of them shot out all at once.


“Roar~”


Bang!


Han Fei had thought that this method was foolproof. No matter how strong the creature underground was, it was only in the Sky Opening realm. How strong could it be?


However, when his fishing hook caught it, the thing exploded. No, to be precise, it dispersed with a bang like a mass of ants.


Clank, Clank, Clank ~


However, the God Sealing Spears followed it closely, so this demonic creature didn’t spread out much before being sealed by Han Fei in that area.


At this moment, the demonic plant had already broken through the soil, and Han Fei had seen its true appearance.


It was a centipede monster with a human head and a centipede body made of various spores and demonic plants.


“Ew!”


Although Han Fei had seen many deformed monsters, he had never seen one that looked so deformed. If it was just a centipede, it would be fine, and even if it was a human-faced centipede, it wasn’t a big deal either.


However, it was f*cking made of plants, and its body was covered with thousands of different demonic plants, like a mixture of plants.


In Han Fei’s eyes, information immediately appeared:


<Name> Mutated Hundred Herb Demon


<Introduction> A demonic plant living in the Dark Demon Domain. Due to being contaminated by the ominous power, it underwent serious mutation and became a mutated Hundred Herb Demon. They devour all foreign species and continue to transform by absorbing the ominous power obtained by ordinary Hundred Herb Demons. After absorbing the ominous power, they will feed back evolution spores and parasitize them into countless ordinary Hundred Herb Demons, making them become a part of them. There is a large amount of ominous aura in their bodies. Only the pure life origin crystal in their hearts is the cure.


<Level> 106


<Quality > Rare


<Realm > Sky Opening


<Ominous aura contained> 306 wisps


<Battle Techniques> Poison Assault, Parasitic, Demon Devouring, Life Absorption, Energy Absorption, Life Stealing Technique


<Collectible> Life Origin Crystal


<Absorbable>


<Note> In this world polluted by ominousness, no spiritual plant is innocent.


Han Fei was dumbfounded. He thought that this centipede monster was only here to collect rent, but it turned out that while collecting rent, it had parasitized many other Hundred Herb Demons and made them all part of its body?


Besides, it had too many combat skills. None of the six combat skills felt normal.


The body of the Hundred Herb Demon turned into independent demonic plants one after another. Then, Han Fei felt that all the demonic plants within a million kilometers began to move.


The ordinary demonic plants began to entangle and fuse with each other. After a moment, Han Fei saw a huge humanoid Hundred Herb Demon appear.


This humanoid Hundred Herb Demon, with six Sea Establishment realm Hundred Herb Demons as the core, attracted tens of thousands of Hundred Herb Demons to fuse with its body, forming a huge mutated monster.


“Damn it! Can plants be played like this? If Little White saw this, she must probably be greatly inspired!”


At this moment, within a million kilometers, all the demonic plants and demons went crazy. The vines and roots that filled the sky blocked Han Fei’s way out and even drilled into the void.


It was the same scene within a million kilometers. This was the first time Han Fei had seen such a terrifying scene. He looked solemn because there were too many vines and roots. When they swept across the sky, Han Fei didn’t know how to wipe out so many demonic plants in this range.


Infinity Water turned into a knife tide, creating a knife storm tens of thousands of kilometers away, protecting Han Fei. But what made Han Fei even more speechless was that the roots and vines exploded in the sky, turning into colorful smoke.


Han Fei knew that it was not smoke, but a kind of spore plant or pollen. Once he was contaminated by it, he was very likely to be poisoned, possessed, had his vitality stolen, and had his energy stolen.


Once that happened, he would be in a passive defensive situation. Therefore, he was actually not fighting a Hundred Herb Demon in the Sky Opening Realm, but countless demonic plants in an area.


Immediately, Han Fei understood the significance of the fourth round of missions. It seemed to be a simple mission, but in fact, it was much more difficult than he had imagined.


This made Han Fei suddenly realize that in the fourth round, not only would there be a 20% chance of death, but it was very likely that half of the participants would be eliminated.


Therefore, the number of people who could complete these three missions might be even fewer than he had imagined.


With a thought, Han Fei used the Sacrificing Punch to penetrate 60,000 kilometers of the void. After three punches, he arrived beside the huge demonic plant.


The Infinity Water turned into water droplets and immediately attached to the huge demonic plant monster.


Bang!


The Infinity Water exploded, and the terrifying explosion swept out for more than 100,000 kilometers. The huge demonic plant monster that had just formed was pierced through and exploded into powder. Within 100,000 kilometers, all its tentacles and roots were destroyed.


There were still some things such as pollen left, but Han Fei had already set up a large array to protect himself.


This explosion stunned most of the demonic plants and demonic creatures here. It seemed that they had never suffered such great damage.


At the moment they froze, Han Fei stood proudly in the void and shouted, “Void Descending.”


Buzz—


Tens of thousands of Han Fei appeared in all directions, and there must be one Han Fei every ten thousand kilometers.


These Han Fei held the God Sealing Spears and pressed down. Immediately, the riot here disappeared, and a large number of demonic plants blurred, desperately resisting the suppression of the God Sealing Spears.


How could Han Fei stop? He continued to summon the Infinity Water and swept this million kilometers inch by inch.


It was not until nearly six hours later that Han Fei mashed everything in this place. And on Han Fei’s qualification token, it appeared:


Sea Establishers, 17.


In the end, only the mutated Hundred Herb Demon was left. Because it had lost most of its strength and lackeys, it was already quite dispirited and its strength had probably plummeted.


Frowning, Han Fei held the Phoenix Feather Violent Saber in his hand. Under the burning flames, the mutated Hundred Herb Demon let out a shrill scream. Han Fei cut open its body and took out a fist-sized dark green crystal of life origin. This piece was probably worth a lot of small pieces.


However, when Han Fei took the life crystal, he found that the mutated Hundred Herb Demon didn’t die immediately.


“Huh?”


Han Fei observed it and discovered something that surprised him. That was, the body of this mutated Hundred Herb Demon was breaking inch by inch. Every time it broke, it turned into a separate Hundred Herb Demon as if it had nothing to do with this mutated Hundred Herb Demon.


It was exactly because of this that this mutated Hundred Herb Demon wasn’t really dead. It was still alive.


Han Fei pierced it through repeatedly.


He took out a total of 103 small life origin crystals. Finally, on the qualification token, it showed: Sky Opener, 1.


“Huh?”


Suddenly, Han Fei felt that something was wrong. His perception seemed to be able to penetrate the ground now.




Chapter 2377: Resources Everywhere

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
Han Fei was quite delighted that his perception could penetrate the surface, because many treasures were hidden underground.


It seemed that this place was occupied by a large number of demonic creatures, so they blocked his perception.


However, when Han Fei spread his perception down, he only found a large number of intertwined roots of demonic plants. They were too dense and deep, leaving Han Fei dumbfounded.


“Oh! Is there a spiritual fruit underground?”


After a while, Han Fei discovered that in some areas, there were earth veins forming and earth veins spring water and spiritual fruits growing.


In some places, there were strange mineral veins, but not many of them. Besides, no spiritual stones were found here. There was no telling if there was a spiritual stone mine here.


However, Han Fei found a special mine that contained a trace of ominous power. This mine was relatively soft and had many holes in its body.


When Han Fei dug up the mine, he found that there were some fruits called “Ominous Fruits” in it. This thing could actually remove the ominous power in the body.


It seemed that where there was poison, there was an antidote. But this poison and its antidote were too close to each other.


“Wait, the land here is so full of vitality.”


Han Fei sensed the changes in the surrounding vitality. The vitality here had clearly increased. At first, Han Fei thought it was because of the Earth Vein Spring Water, but when he dug again, he found nearly a thousand square meters of Mystic Yellow Soil.


Han Fei took a deep breath.


“Shoot! Mystic Yellow Soil?”


Gulp!


Han Fei swallowed. The Ten Thousand Scale Monarch often rewarded others with Mystic Yellow Soil, and only under special circumstances would he reward them with more than five pieces. Each piece of Mystic Yellow Soil was only the size of a brick, and ten pieces added up to less than one square meter.


However, Mystic Yellow Soil could make the land of the Origin Stars fertile and full of vitality, making the Origin Stars more like primitive stars.


He only got a hill-like piece of Mystic Yellow Soil in the Ruins of Gods, but it was only one or two times more than the Mystic Yellow Soil here.


“I’m rich! Treasures are everywhere.”


At that moment, Han Fei was a little excited.


But when Han Fei calmed down, he began to analyze these Hundred Herb Demons carefully.


This mutated Hundred Herb Demon was very difficult to deal with. It could split its body into many conscious parts and parasitize the creatures in a large area.


If he didn’t kill all the creatures in this area, he didn’t know if he could kill it.


Han Fei wasn’t sure if all the mutated Hundred Herb Demons were like this, or only this one he had encountered was like this. But he felt that after this massacre, within a million kilometers, not a blade of grass grew.


Because all the contestants entered the Demon Domain at random, and this world should be an extremely huge world, Han Fei didn’t think he would meet anyone else in a short period of time.


Besides, those who could kill the mutated Hundred Herb Demons could probably find something wrong underground too. But he had the Demon Purification Pot, they didn’t.


Out of curiosity, he dug out a mine that contained the ominous aura, which was why he found the Mystic Yellow Soil.


Others might be able to discover this mine, but although they didn’t recognize the ominous aura, they could sense it because mutated Hundred Herb Demons had it on their bodies.


Therefore, others might not dig up this entire mine, so it was unknown if they could find the Mystic Yellow Soil.


Of course, there was a high chance that it would be discovered in the end. After all, no one who could cultivate to this level was an idiot.


After a calm analysis, Han Fei took out a life origin crystal he had just obtained and tried it curiously. When he completely swallowed one, he found that it was useful for his vitality. However, he couldn’t increase his lifespan with it.


Lifespan and vitality were two different things. In the beginning, when he consumed vitality with the Heaven Enlightenment Divine Technique, he would replenish it with his lifespan. Later, when Han Fei slowly became stronger, what he consumed was no longer his lifespan.


Of course, if he was heavily injured or one of his twin bodies was killed, he still had to consume his lifespan.


However, so far, Han Fei’s lifespan was sufficient and he was almost in his peak state, so this life origin crystal wasn’t of much significance to him for the time being.


But how could he know how much vitality his Origin Sea needed? He had to ask the God of War about the injection of vitality later.


There was nothing wrong with taking things one step at a time. Anyway, the God of War seemed to have nothing to do every day, so they could chat for a long time.


With this in mind, Han Fei didn’t consume these world origin crystals. He’d better put them away first. When he needed them in the future, he could take them out.


Swish! Swish! Swish!


Han Fei waved his hand and took back the God Sealing Spears that had been sealing this place. The God Sealing Spear was really powerful. The people trapped in the Ruins of Gods could almost kill five alone easily after learning this technique, so it wasn’t a surprise for him to seal a hundred kilometers with the spears.


When all his clones returned, Han Fei pointed in the direction of the demonic source with the Vast Ocean Navigator and then rushed towards that place.


Han Fei thought that although the mutated Hundred Herb Demon was powerful, there were also many capable people participating in the 100,000-year competition, such as Feng Yu, Zhao Qinglong, Wushuang, Wang Beichen… Even the combat fire of Feng Xingliu could naturally restrain the demonic plants of the Demon Domain.


Therefore, Han Fei thought that it shouldn’t be a problem for a really strong cultivator to kill ten demonic creatures in the Sky Opening Realm.


However, most people definitely had to form an alliance before they had a chance to kill ten demonic creatures in the Sky Opening Realm.


…


Three days later.


Han Fei didn’t go far. Only after walking out did Han Fei know how many demonic creatures there were in this Demon Domain.


What he had seen before was just the normal state. The density of the demonic plants and demonic creatures here was so high. Within a million kilometers, he could easily find a dozen Sea Establishment realm demonic creatures. The birth rate of these demonic creatures simply horrified Han Fei. If this world had only been ominously contaminated, were there many such worlds?


If there were a lot of them and these creatures launched a collective counterattack, Han Fei thought that this would be an unimaginably terrifying combat power.


In three days, Han Fei had walked 90 million kilometers. In total, he had killed 812 Sea Establisher-level demonic creatures, 5 Sky Opener-level demonic creatures, and countless other demonic creatures.


“Huff~”


Although ordinary demonic plants also had life origin crystals, they were too small. They were only the size of fingernails and light green in color. The effect was obviously not good enough.


Of course, the advantage was that there were many of them! Han Fei calculated and realized that there were probably a million nail-sized life origin crystals on his Origin Star. There were too many small demonic creatures here.


“Huff!”


On the fourth day after Han Fei came in, he had basically completed half of his mission. But at this moment, he no longer regarded these as missions. After all, the obtained life origin crystals would belong to him. Furthermore, he could absorb a large amount of energy from the bodies of these killed demonic creatures and nourish his Origin Star. It was a good thing.


The main reason was that there were many spiritual fruits growing in places where these demonic creatures were rampant. These demonic creatures treated spiritual fruits as ordinary garbage fruits.


Many spiritual fruits were in clusters, each cluster including dozens of them. Some of these spiritual fruits were polluted, and some were normal. Anyway, Han Fei had the Demon Purification Pot, so he could distinguish them easily.


After a few days, Han Fei discovered that 80% of these spiritual fruits were normal. And according to his judgment, the polluted spiritual fruits were the favorites of demonic creatures. Generally speaking, as long as they matured, the demonic creatures would swallow the spiritual fruits first, which might even cause the demonic creatures to fight.


However, ordinary spiritual fruits would be abandoned by the demonic creatures. Therefore, after Han Fei’s appraisal, 80% of the spiritual fruits were normal.


In the past three days, he had obtained hundreds of thousands of spiritual fruits.


In addition to these spiritual fruits, Han Fei also dug up a lot of Mystic Yellow Soil, about twice the amount that the fake god gave him in the Ruins of Gods.


After all, not every place had so much Mystic Yellow Soil. It just happened that there was more Mystic Yellow Soil where he was previously.


“Three days!”


Han Fei couldn’t help but breathe heavily. In just three days, he had obtained the Mystic Yellow Soil and life origin crystals that ordinary people couldn’t get even after tens of thousands of years.


This made Han Fei sigh. Sure enough, his journey to the hundred-thousand-year competition was not in vain.


He wondered if there would be a greater surprise near the demonic source if he could already get so many resources from the place of ordinary Sky Opening realm demonic creatures.


 




Chapter 2378: Demonic Creatures Army

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
In the Demon Domain, the land area was relatively small.


On the fourth day, the environment in front of Han Fei changed a lot. What he encountered now was a swamp.


This swamp was much weirder than the land. There were very few trees in the swamp. Where there were trees, they were not regular trees. For example, if you saw a circle of colorful fruit hanging on a tree, you would think it was a fruit from the Demon Domain. But in fact, it could be a colorful spider that shrank into a ball or a strange demonic plant.


As for that tree, it was a proper Sky Opening Realm demonic tree, but it could control countless demonic creatures within a million kilometers.


Han Fei discovered that in the Demon Domain, all kinds of life had a common characteristic, which was parasitization. Perhaps in the end, demonic plants ruled this world, and demonic plants were creatures with particularly tenacious vitality and strong sowing abilities. Furthermore, they could evolve into highly poisonous creatures, evolving into beast-like creatures, worm-like creatures…


Several hours later, after Han Fei killed the Tree Demon and dug out a piece of Mystic Yellow Soil under the swamp, he found a piece of strange black soil under the Mystic Yellow Soil.


This piece of soil was only palm-sized and seemed to have hardened in some places.


But a piece of information appeared in Han Fei’s eyes.


<Name> Chaotic Treasure Soil


<Introduction> A treasure soil born at the beginning of the Chaos. It can stabilize and strengthen the effect of the Origin Stars. The Chaotic Treasure Soil can slowly absorb the essence of the world spontaneously, improve the ordinary spiritual soil around, and make it transform into the Mystic Yellow Soil.


< Level > None


<Quality> Inferior


<Note> This piece of Chaotic Treasure Soil has evolved over a long period of time and suffered from ominous pollution. Its quality has been greatly reduced, and only ten or twenty percent of its effects remain. To return to its normal state, it needs about ten thousand years of natural precipitation.


“Heh!”


When Han Fei saw the Chaotic Treasure Soil, he thought that it was a good thing, but it turned out to be of inferior quality. He didn’t expect that this thing had inferior quality. Even if it was a Chaotic Spiritual Treasure, its quality was probably not good. Han Fei thought that this was at most equivalent to hundreds of square meters of Mystic Yellow Soil.


Han Fei threw the Chaotic Treasure Soil into his Origin Star and sighed. He was really happy for nothing.


Han Fei sighed. “After I finish the task of killing the demonic creatures in the Sky Opening Realm, I’ll be halfway through the first task. When I solve the demonic source, I can go to Cao Mengde and the others.”


Han Fei was calculating his plan. Since they had helped him get the essence blood of divine beasts, giving him at least two chances to upgrade his bloodline, he should pay the remuneration they deserved.


More importantly, in addition to the reward, there must be some additional gains. If someone really attacked Cao Mengde and the others and he killed the person, wouldn’t the person who was killed be counted as his spoils? At that time, the guy’s Star Core could be used for his body tempering, and the vitality of his Origin Sea would naturally belong to him. And his broken Origin Star could be offered to the God of War as sacrifices.


Well, the God of War seems to despise these incomplete Origin Stars, and the remuneration for this kind of sacrifice is pitifully small. It seems that I have to get a complete Origin Star for him.


With this in mind, Han Fei felt that he still needed a lot of enemies. After the fourth round of qualifiers ended, he probably wouldn’t have a chance to get the corpses of the Sky Opening cultivators and snatch their Origin Stars.


Therefore, he had to do what he should do, get the resources he should get, and kill the people he should kill in the Demon Domain all at once.


Just as Han Fei was fantasizing about taking advantage of these three years to completely transform his Origin Sea into a star and embark on the Star Path, in a place not far away from him, an amethyst that looked like a flower bud growing from under the ground bloomed. The amethyst had six-colored petals, which protected a crystal flower.


In the middle of the crystal flower was a turbid but fragrant black jade-colored liquid, forming a garden pool.


Whoosh!


In the muddy pool, a huge figure emerged from the water. It was a huge, strange creature that was half human, half flower. It looked like a human because the fused plants and black water formed the upper half of its body, and this creature had a pair of arms made of tens of thousands of demonic plants, and a head made of spiritual plants. It was indeed quite different from humans.


However, her face was that of a human woman. It was not the kind of face that was made of colorful colors, but quite good-looking.


“Hiss ~”


On the head of this weirdo, a python crawled out of her head. The python stuck out its tongue, and soon, around the woman, vines spontaneously formed six different demonic creatures.


A total of six masses of black unknown matter condensed in the hands of this strange person. After this thing appeared, the six demonic creatures were all excited. It seemed that they were afraid of something, or they would have rushed up to snatch it.


However, as a divine thought pressed down, all the six demons were obedient.


The divine thought said to the demonic creatures. “There’s an intruder who broke into my territory. He has already killed six guardians in the Sky Opening realm in a row. All of you, attack together, kill him, and bring his corpse back.”


“Tweet ~”


Suddenly, one of the six demonic creatures turned into an eagle, grabbed a mass of black water, and flew away.


The others had the same reaction. One of the frogs stuck out its tongue and took away his share of the black water.


A treeman extended its tentacles and grabbed the black water. A centipede crawled to the purple crystal, rose, and took it away.


A cheetah and a python also left with the black water mass.


They were not just one species, but they all had the same characteristics, which was that they were all simulated plants. Essentially, they were still plants.


However, unlike ordinary demonic plants, they seemed to have developed consciousness and were very aggressive. If the female demon in the purple crystal flower didn’t give them any benefits, they didn’t seem to be obedient.


…


Half a day later.


Along the way, Han Fei felt a little strange. This swamp was not right. He had met some normal Sea Establisher creatures just now.


However, it was as if there were fewer demonic plants and demonic creatures here all of a sudden.


Was this the territory of a powerful existence? Was that why there were fewer demonic plants around?


But Han Fei didn’t seem to care. Even if it was a powerful demonic plant, so what? No matter how strong it was, it couldn’t be a Monarch. Otherwise, the Divine Capital Dynasty wouldn’t have sent so many people here to complete the mission.


As long as it wasn’t a Monarch, Han Fei was confident that he could escape even if he couldn’t beat it. Or at least, only someone at Zhao Qinglong’s level could hold him back.


Han Fei seemed to have thought of something and fished out the Nine Palace Luck Ruler from the void.


Han Fei felt that he might have found the demonic source. Otherwise, there was no reason to explain the strange silence now, which was like the calm before a storm.


Sure enough, when the Nine Palace Luck Ruler’s marker began to move, it landed on the “Greatly Ominous”.


“Oh, the difficulty is actually quite high.”


Han Fei wasn’t surprised. Logically speaking, there should be many demonic sources in this world, probably hundreds of thousands. With so many demonic sources, wasn’t it normal for him to encounter one?


If it wasn’t for the demonic source, how could the demonic plants and demonic creatures here have caused him to fall into a “Greatly Ominous” situation?


Han Fei walked for a moment more and found that the swamp began to slowly become shallower. Small areas of land often appeared around him. And the surrounding demonic plants and demonic creatures became unusually dense again.


“Huh? That’s not right! Why are the demonic creatures so dense again?”


“Splatter!”


Suddenly, Han Fei frowned and looked into the distant sky. In the sky, a figure flew over in an instant.


“eagle?”


Han Fei was taken aback at first, but then he realized that there was no hawk here. Sure enough, what appeared in his eyes was only an eagle-like flying plant. Han Fei also saw that there were many mushrooms on the wings of the eagle. The eagle flew past, leaving a long spore mark behind as if it was sowing seeds.


Toot…


Bam! Bam! Bam!


In the next moment, Han Fei saw creatures moving towards him from underground far away as fast as using the light escape technique in the soil.


On the ground, a cheetah plant was sprinting as fast as the eagle.


Three? No, six.


In the swamp, Han Fei saw a long dragon cruising over, and a mountain rising from the ground on the other side. In the next moment, the mountain actually jumped.


Under Han Fei, billions of tentacles that were emitting blue light rose to the sky and attacked first.


“Oh! You’ve learned your lesson, so you’re ambushing me together?”





Chapter 2379: Fierce Battle with the Aliens

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
The moment three demonic creatures of the Sky Opening realm appeared in a row, Han Fei knew that he had been ambushed.


When he realized that there were as many as six Sky Opening Realm demons ambushing him, he actually felt a little uncomfortable.


According to his previous experience, he had stayed in this area long enough. Now six of them suddenly came to ambush him. This was more like a premeditated and planned ambush.


In the swamp under Han Fei, a treeman suddenly appeared. This treeman stretched out billions of tentacles, seeming to want to control Han Fei. The greatest characteristic of demonic plants was control.


Han Fei could feel that weird patterns were forming on every tree vine, as if they were the Dao Pattern of Heaven and Earth in this ominous world.


Apart from the hundreds of millions of vine tentacles, all the demonic plants and demonic creatures within a million kilometers exploded. Without needing Han Fei to eradicate them, all the non-Sky Opening realm creatures here self-destructed and turned into clouds of myriad colors.


Of course, if only they were just clouds. But in fact, they were densely packed spores and poisons. And they were all active. More importantly, some undetectable Dao patterns would be imprinted on the tiny and even undetectable spore particles.


This tree demon alone had many strange abilities, such as control, Dao Pattern curse techniques, parasitic spores, poisonous fog corrosion, and so on. It wasn’t that it was very strong, but these methods were too insidious.


At this moment, Han Fei felt that he needed a sea of fire.


Swish ~


Two sledgehammers appeared in Han Fei’s hands. He was not a sword cultivator. He could use any weapon. These double sledgehammers were forging hammers.


As for the usage of combat techniques, Han Fei activated the Void Fire Technique and supplemented it with the Hundred War Divine Hammer. In an instant, the Immortal Qi on the two hammers turned into fire.


Buzz!


It was not enough to just use fire. Wouldn’t it be a waste if he didn’t use the Dao Pattern of Heaven and Earth?


In the void, tens of thousands of twisted patterns were branded all over his body, including the double hammers.


Whoosh!


As soon as these Dao patterns appeared, coupled with the fire turned into from Immortal Qi, the flames of anger spread out for 100,000 kilometers.


Countless demonic vines lingered in midair, and in fact, half of them were immediately burned.


But Han Fei had no time to pay attention to the Tree Demon, because two extremely fast demonic creatures of the Sky Opening realm, the eagle and the cheetah, had already attacked.


Swish! Swish! Swish!


The eagle approached and spread its big wings, filling the sky with flying feathers. This was more like the essence of spores that filled the sky, trying to take advantage of the wind to blow at Han Fei.


“Triple Hammer Technique!”


Knock, knock, knock!


In the void, there were endless ripples of hammer strikes. In the blink of an eye, more than 200 ripples exploded in the void. Every ripple followed a new one after bursting out in the void. In the end, the ripples formed a cone, piercing through the void, piercing through the spore rain that filled the sky, and suppressing the eagle that was flapping its wings desperately.


At the moment Han Fei hammered the void, a golden figure ten thousand feet tall rose from the ground. If it wasn’t his Dharma Idol, what was it?


At this moment, two hands stretched out from the back of the Dharma Idol. He punched out faster than the speed of light, and a series of explosions seemed to happen in the direction where the cheetah ran.


Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!


In the blink of an eye, the attacks of the three Sky Opening realm demonic plants were blocked by Han Fei alone.


However, Han Fei wouldn’t forget that there were still three demonic plants in the Sky Opening realm.


At this moment, the python had already soared into the sky. Before it arrived, it whipped at Han Fei with its tail.


Bang!


Han Fei, who seemed to have no time to be distracted, was sent flying into the swamp. The terrifying ripples of the explosion spread hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.


Bang!


Then, the swamp exploded, and a Blade Storm swept out. The vines were minced into spore pollen, but the immortal fire was still burning, so the treeman couldn’t do anything to Han Fei.


With a thought, Han Fei transformed into Nezha who had three heads and six arms. He held two hammers with two hands, put gloves on two other fists, and held double knives with the remaining two fists.


For a time, fierce battles broke out here. The centipedes that were moving underground couldn’t help but attack too. Chain-like hooks appeared all over the sky.


Han Fei realized that as long as he was caught by one of the hooks, billions of hooks would fall on him in the next moment.


Those were all centipede claws. If he was caught by them, coupled with the tree demon, he would fall into a passive state. It wasn’t that these demonic plants were very strong. In fact, they weren’t very strong themselves, but they had borrowed too much external power. For example, a demonic creature in the Sky Opening realm could almost absorb the power of all ordinary demonic plants within a million kilometers. Then would it still be an ordinary Sky Opener?


If there was only one, it wouldn’t be a problem to deal with it. But if there were six in a row, it would be a big problem.


Han Fei didn’t think that an ordinary person would fight unscrupulously in the same territory and wait to be ambushed by the other party as him.


Han Fei gave a self-mocking smile. He didn’t use the Void Stealing Technique immediately. He was waiting for the six Sky Opening Realm demonic creatures to surround him. Then, he would have a good opportunity to use the God Sealing Spears and kill them all in one fell swoop.


Otherwise, with the nature of these demonic creatures in the Sky Opening realm, they could transform into countless demonic plants and escape.


Bang!


Han Fei was hit again, this time by the cheetah. At that moment, Han Fei’s body was caught by the centipede’s Void Hook.


It was at this moment that the six cultivators knew that their chance had come. The Tree Demon hurriedly sealed the surroundings of Han Fei, and the vines had already tied him up.


At this moment, the last toad that hadn’t taken action for a long time and seemed to be waiting for an opportunity suddenly took action. The big toad opened its mouth, and a long tongue composed of demonic plants wrapped around Han Fei’s body at almost ten times the speed of light.


Only at this moment did Han Fei clearly know that three of the six Sky Openers were control-type. This confirmed a fact. demonic plants were best at control. No matter how they simulated other creatures, their characteristics couldn’t be erased.


Buzz!


The moment the sixth toad appeared, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, a figure appeared holding the God Sealing Spear.


The God Sealing Spear itself might have to pierce through their bodies to seal these demonic creatures. But the spear array was different. It was a large-scale sealing field.


However, there was no telling if it was because these six demonic creatures had mastered too much power, but Han Fei felt that the situation was not good as soon as the God Sealing Spear fell. The God Sealing Spear was shaking.


Not good. They have borrowed all the power of all the creatures within a million kilometers to resist the sealing power of the God Sealing Spear. I have to nail them through with the spear.


In the void, Han Fei’s figure appeared out of thin air. As early as the first time he was blasted into the swamp, he had already used the Twin Divine Technique. Although he had fused his twin bodies in advance, fortunately, the six Sky Opening Realm demonic creatures had already appeared, so he could take action now.


“Steal his consciousness.”


The first thing Han Fei did was to steal the consciousness of the python, because in his opinion, this thing was closest, huge, and not fast enough. It was the easiest to kill.


However, as soon as he activated the Void Stealing Technique, he found that the python had no reaction at all.


“Damn it!”


Han Fei’s expression suddenly changed. Only then did he realize that there were countless sensory systems of these demonic plants. Did the other party not even notice that he had stolen its consciousness?


“Steal his power.”


The stealing power was useless too, and Han Fei only felt a little power replenishing him. His heart immediately became heavy. This kind of Sky Opening realm demonic creature couldn’t be considered as one creature but a strange combination of countless independent demonic plants. They might have a unified consciousness, but Han Fei couldn’t steal this consciousness.


After stealing twice in a row, the python had clearly reacted. Although it was a combination of countless independent individuals, it always had a main body to support it.


Therefore, it knew that it had lost consciousness and power.


However, in the next moment, it found that time around it suddenly stopped. Creatures in the Sky Opening realm could sense time stopping. They could even enter the river of time.


However, time was still. This was a state of law. This python could resist the power of time, but then he found that the energy in the void, including the energy in his body, was rapidly draining.


As for Han Fei, his strength soared instantly, and cracks appeared on his body.


Looking closely, the God’s Prayer Bead was no longer on his chest, the God Slaying Boxing Gloves were no longer on his hands, and he had even abandoned his Dharma Idol.


This time, he stole all the energy in this place where time was frozen. He didn’t know if this would work, but he was obviously disappointed.


Without a main body, the stealing wasn’t very effective. The natural energy within the range of time had been stolen by Han Fei, but the python’s Great Dao was instinctively protecting the python. Although it was losing energy, Han Fei discovered that the power he stole was less than 10%.


Fortunately, Han Fei didn’t completely count on the Void Stealing Technique. He held a God Sealing Spear in his hand and at the moment of time freeze, he had already nailed the python’s vitals.


“Puff ~”


Roar!


With a furious roar, the other parts of the python’s body wanted to run, but how could it run when its tail was nailed? The only thing that surprised Han Fei was that the vital part of the snake-shaped demonic plant’s body wasn’t that important.


“Pu! Pu! Pu! Pu!”


The python was about to break free from the time and disband its body.


But during the frozen time, Han Fei nailed the python from head to tail with seven consecutive God Sealing Spears.


“Humph! No matter how many tricks you have, your defense power is only average.”





Chapter 2380: River of Life

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
Without the power of the python, the effect of the God Sealing Spear Array was immediately stabilized, but not completely.


At most, the God Sealing Spear Array could last for another ten seconds. Of course, if another demonic creature was sealed, the effect of the God Sealing Spear could be strengthened to more than ten seconds.


As for the second prey, Han Fei chose the toad.


Han Fei put on a smile.


“Snap~”


As Han Fei snapped his fingers, the big toad’s body was pierced through. It was a water-shaped spear branded with the Dao Pattern of Heaven and Earth.


Earlier, when he was deliberately tied up by the big toad’s tongue, he had already left the Infinity Water behind. As long as he thought about it, the Infinity Water could change into any form he wanted.


At this moment, the toad was directly skewered. The Dao Pattern of Heaven and Earth imprinted on the Infinity Water, and the toad had no chance to struggle at all.


Not only that, the toad and the python couldn’t even disband their bodies.


This scene far exceeded the expectations of the other four demonic plants. They never expected that in such a short moment, their two teammates would be almost suppressed at the same time.


Without the two major helpers, the God Sealing Spear Array here was relatively stable, and their strength had dropped by as much as 30%.


The main reason was that the range of the God Sealing Spear Array was relatively large now, and they had borrowed the power of countless demonic plants and demonic creatures. Therefore, they had only lost 30% of their strength. Otherwise, it would only be more.


Previously, these six demonic plants were equivalent to six peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators. But now, they were at most six late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators.


Of course, if it were six peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators from the Divine Capital Dynasty or the Heavenly Race, Han Fei probably wouldn’t be able to resist them. Fortunately, the intelligence of these demonic plants wasn’t that high, and their reactions weren’t that fast. Although their individual combat power might have reached the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm, they had experienced too few battles.


Han Fei, who had been through countless battles, had long been prepared to deal with various situations. Two of the six demonic creatures had been resolved.


The remaining four demonic creatures knew that it was useless to disperse their bodies at this moment. The first thing they had to do was to open a channel.


Then, to Han Fei’s surprise, the four demonic creatures began to borrow power from each other and gathered all their power on the eagle.


At this moment, they had already discovered that Han Fei was different. This person was not easy to deal with. He had killed two of their companions as soon as he attacked. If they waited for a few more seconds, they would probably be all dead.


As soon as the eagle flew away, Han Fei grinned. After it flew away, Han Fei suddenly said, “There’s no wind here.”


Boom!


Han Fei deprived the God Sealing Spear Array of the Great Dao of Wind. No matter how the bird flew, it had to borrow the Great Dao of Wind.


If the Great Dao of Wind was suddenly gone, wouldn’t the eagle be doomed?


However, Han Fei did not attack the eagle immediately. The centipede, cheetah, and treeman lent their strength to the eagle, which must have greatly weakened them.


Even if the eagle didn’t have the Great Dao of Wind, it must have other ways to fly again. Han Fei suddenly appeared in front of the cheetah at nearly eight times the speed of light.


“Pu! Pu! Pu! Pu!”


The cheetah wanted to disperse its body and transform into countless demonic plants, but Han Fei was still faster than it. He stabbed the God Sealing Spear at its head.


The Tree Demon wanted to help the cheetah, but Han Fei launched a series of ultra-light speed fist marks with two fists of his six fists. Coupled with the fact that Han Fei had put on the God Slaying Boxing Gloves again, the sky was filled with debris.


Realizing that the cheetah was doomed, the Tree Demons and centipedes dispersed. Thousands of demonic creatures suddenly appeared and spores flew all over the sky.


However, how could Han Fei not know what the centipede and the treeman were thinking?


They knew that they could only rely on the eagle, so they used most of their burdensome demonic bodies to hold Han Fei back. And their main body had already run to the eagle.


At this moment, Han Fei had just finished sealing the cheetah.


The entire God Sealing Spear Array was filled with spore powder of various colors that could isolate perception.


Han Fei’s perception was blocked. However, Han Fei smiled faintly and shook his head slightly. “Void Descending.”


Different from other cloning techniques, what the Void Descending Technique split out wasn’t completely clones. When the clones exceeded a certain level of strength, they would become the main bodies.


This trump card was accidentally discovered by Han Fei during the more than 30 years in the Ruins of Gods. However, he had never used it until now. If he didn’t have to kill these six demonic creatures today, he wouldn’t have used it.


Besides, he dared to use it because he was the only one here. Even if there were Monarchs, they might not pay attention to him. How could the Monarch’s perception pass through the array of the God-Sealing Spear, through the barrier of these spores, and finally find his little trump card?


Han Fei thought that Monarchs wouldn’t be so bored.


The eagle was dumbfounded too. Why did this person suddenly appear?


The eagle had no time to think. It gathered its sharp claws with all its strength. However, a holy pillar of light suddenly descended on it.


Buzz~


A large amount of ominous aura was directly purified, and thick black fog spread out in all directions.


Han Fei, bathed in divine light, walked towards the eagle that was a little stiff and said, “You shouldn’t have entrusted hope to others. Fortunately, the three of you gathered your strength. Otherwise, I might not have been able to take down the four of you.”


At this moment, the eagle still had some strength left, but after being illuminated by the Heaven Enlightenment Divine Technique, a large amount of dark aura in its body was purified, and the power it had just obtained from the others was immediately reduced. The battle became one-on-one.


Thirty seconds later, everybody including the eagle was nailed to the ground by Han Fei.


After destroying the dispersed bodies of the Tree Demon and the centipede, Han Fei finally caught the Tree Demon.


Han Fei had to admit that this world of demonic plants did give Han Fei a lot of surprises. They were a strange life form. Their bodies could be divided into countless independent entities. There was a difference in strength among the independent entities. But when necessary, all entities would turn into body parts and gather.


If their main body was just an ordinary star transformation demonic creature, when all these independent individuals gathered, they would instantly become a peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm demonic creature.


Han Fei wondered what would happen if their independent body parts also evolved to the Sky Opening realm? Would they fuse with each other and directly prove their Daos?


Han Fei had studied them for a long time. He could only understand that all of them came through parasitism. As for why they were such life forms, it could only be related to the Great Dao of Parasitism.


Han Fei couldn’t help but think of Xue Fan from the Blood Sea Divine Wood City in the Water-Wood World. That guy really had forward thinking and took a parasitic path. If he really grew up, the consequences would be unimaginable.


After that, Han Fei didn’t take out their life origin crystals immediately but used a strange technique.


This technique was the Vitality Condensation Technique passed down by the God of War.


Although using this technique would strengthen his karma fire, he had to try it out. He had to know how to use it first. At the same time, he wanted to gain the experience of using this technique.


Using his own vitality as a catalyst, Han Fei triggered the vitality of the six demonic plants in the God Sealing Spear Array.


In fact, he only triggered their life origin crystals. How could there be a better test subject?


After a while, Han Fei felt that a mass of extremely rich vitality was slowly taking shape in front of him. However, the feeling of being burnt by the so-called karma fire was not obvious, or even felt at all.


“Could it be that these demonic creatures are not good things in the first place, so it’s not easy for the karma fire to produce?”


Han Fei didn’t really want to be burnt by the karma fire. He just wanted to check the Vitality Condensation Technique and confirm how to use it in the future.


But the result was not ideal.


Half a day passed.


Ka ka ka ~


The vitality of these demonic creatures condensed into a very pure life origin. It seemed to be several times more than absorbing their life origin crystals alone.


Throwing this part of vitality into his Origin Star, Han Fei felt that this rich vitality was quickly absorbed by his Origin Star, like rain falling on the sand, absorbed in the blink of an eye.


“Huh?”


Han Fei’s heart did a flip. He felt that he seemed to see a small river. This vitality seemed to converge in this river in his Origin Star. The increase was as much as one tenth of the river.


“Is this… the River of Life?”


“No, no, Feng Xingliu once said that the river of life is a mysterious river that integrates the lives of billions of people. Mine should just be a quantification of the vitality contained in my Origin Star.”


Not only that, after Han Fei suddenly closed his eyes, an illusory river appeared in his mind. It seemed that he had accidentally found it, so it no longer hid from him and actually appeared.


“That was the river of life of my Origin Star… And this is my own river of life?”
