Everyone’s eyes were focused on Qin Feng.
Qin Feng was still struggling with those ultra beasts. Despite that, he did hear the conversation between Ayshan and He Tianxing.
Perhaps in the eyes of these two powerful S-tiers or even most people, it would be impossible for Qin Feng to win such a bet. But to Qin Feng, this was the lifeline he was waiting for.
Nonetheless, Qin Feng did not reveal his true thoughts. If he carelessly expressed his confidence now, it would draw unnecessary suspicion from He Tianxing. In that case, he would never get to glimpse the moment He Tianxing would slap his own face.
They would deeply regret it when all was said and done.
Qing Feng kept on brandishing the Verdant Emperor Saber, killing one after another beast coming his way.
The soul of the dead beasts would flow into Qin Feng’s body, which little by little healed Qin Feng’s wounds.
The injury caused by He Tianxing had been substantially alleviated as well.
Seeing Qin Feng’s composure in dealing with the beast, Long Yunyi knew those beasts could hardly hurt Qin Feng for now. He temporarily set aside his concern.
“Alright, I agree!”
He Tianxing sneered. He too realized Qin Feng might not fall so easily. That was why Long Yunyi had agreed to the bet so big-heartedly. However, his movement was currently being impeded by Long Yunyi. Since He Tianxing could not touch Qin Feng, he could only bet on his luck.
Now he wished for more powerful creatures to come through the crack.
As if He Tianxing’s prayer was answered, ultra beasts emerged continuously from the rift. Both their level and size increased herd after herd. After the Skeleton Wyvern from earlier was brought down by Qin Feng through some effort, more ferocious beasts stepped over its body and lunged at Qin Feng.
“Up!”
To prevent himself from being cornered by the beasts, Qin Feng raised his footing. He stood steadily on the little hill, like a boulder that stood stubbornly in the middle of the sea despite being lambasted by sea wave after sea wave.
Qin Feng wanted to stall for as long as possible.
He did not know what kind of ultra beast would be coming out from the rift later. At least right now, he was not troubled by them. Once Hu San had finished assimilating the blood crystal, then there would be three S-tiers on his side. He would have nothing to fear when that time came.
The slaughter carried on.
Because of the endless killing, fresh blood spilled everywhere and lured more beasts to cross the rift. Even beasts belonging to this realm were lured by the blood scent. Beasts around this area, local and alien alike, were all coming in Qin Feng’s direction. They were triggered by Qin Feng and craved to shred the arrogant human.
However, it was the beasts that always ended up falling under Qin Feng’s saber.
The killing continued after the moon’s arrival chased away the daylight. Qin Feng refused to surrender despite the endless mob. One slash, one kill.
If there was anyone who could single-handedly stop a beast wave, that person had to be an elect, and the beast wave must be a few tiers below his or her level.
But nobody would believe a B-tier, with a single saber in his hand, could withstand such a large-scale B-tier beast wave for this long.
Yet, such a miracle was currently unfolding in front of their very eyes.
Awoo!!
Amid the night, a staggering roar broke through the chaos. A pair of green eyes beamed in the night looking for its pair. The aura of A-tier beasts had finally arrived.
Long Yue frowned upsettingly. It was a bad omen.
“I believe you guys from the Long family are men of your words, right?” He Tianxing reminded Long Yue.
He was closer than ever to victory now, despite the long wait. It would be extremely pleasing to see his foe being torn apart alive by beasts in an exhausted, defenseless state. It was worth the wait.
Not only that but He Tianxing would also be utterly delighted when the man the Long family vowed to protect was killed right under their helplessness.
He eagerly anticipated the moment Qin Feng would fall on his knees.
This was when the door of the igloo behind Qin Feng swung open.
Hu San was surprised to find himself inside a glasshouse. It was actually a spatial dimension created by Bai Li to protect the igloo.
Realizing that Hu San had come out from the igloo, Bai Li immediately dispersed the spatial barrier. Commotion on the outside immediately reached Hu San’s consciousness. The four S-tiers in the sky and the numerous carcasses on the ground were enough for Hu San to know that Qin Feng must have gone through hell when he was meditating.
“The hell happened out here?” Hu San murmured somberly. His hair was still largely white but it was different from before. It no longer carried a shade of yellow but was sparklingly snowy now. The wrinkles on his skin had straightened a lot too.
More so, his hump was fixed and looked especially brawny. The blood concentrated crystal was indeed effective.
Hu San had spent more time than he needed to fix some of his persistent ailments. He did not expect to come out to such a drastic change on the outside.
Bai Li blinked impatiently when she saw Hu San’s slightly confused face. She promptly briefed him about the current situation, “The black S-tier over there tried to stir trouble first after you went in. Then these two came to help. Not long after, He Tianxing joined the party as well.”
Bai Li did not mention the bet, because it no longer mattered after Hu San had woken up.
“My little bro Qin Feng, it seems I now owe you another favor. Thanks a lot!” Hu San thanked him sincerely.
If not because of Qin Feng’s protection, Hu San could not have assimilated the crystal undisturbed. Though he would not lose anything, he might have missed out on the best therapy in years.
He could not thank Qin Feng enough. The young man must have put his life on the line trying to stop his nemesis Ayshan, a legit S-tier!
Qin Feng finally felt the shackle on his shoulder loosen up after he heard Hu San’s voice.
“Since you have come out, I no longer have to pretend,” Qin Feng claimed casually.
“Oh?” Hu San was puzzled. He then saw Qin Feng begin to imbue the saber with his internal strength.
The next moment, the saber started to wail. Along with the frightening wailing, numerous silhouettes erupted from the saber.
They were the spirits trapped inside the Soul-lock Stone.
“Spirit Chain Rend!”
Qin Feng exhausted a hundred pools of internal strength. Amplified by the force, the spirits further expanded ten times.
Then, Qin Feng made a half turn with the saber and swept the battlefield in front of him with the spirits clinging to it.
All beasts within sight, including the A-tier, were exterminated by this S-tier ancient art.
The roars, the footsteps, the buzz—all of it was silenced by half.
Onlookers from afar, S-tier in a stalemate midair—had been equally silenced.
It only made the subsequent saber swing sound louder than it should be.
“Spirit Chain Rend!”
“Second hit!”
All the remaining beasts on the other half of the circle were cleansed this time.
Behold, such was Qin Feng’s maximum power!
