Leylin listened attentively to Fergie’s explanation of the new realms.
“The foreign land’s much complicated than what you’ve thought. Experts here are like trees in a thick forest. Surviving in a high-level continent is much more strenuous than living in your low-level continent.” Fergie seemed to turn her boasting channel on, but she wasn’t hurried, looking at him with a cold face. “If you want to survive in a foreign land, you always have to think about advancing. You can’t be relaxed.”
Fergie paused for a while and then asked him. “How old are you?”
Leylin said. “Twenty nine.”
Even though Leylin has been running back and forth through the Grace Mainland, and he hadn’t stopped for a long time in any land he still remembered the age of the real body.
Fergie’s eyes became strange. She scrutinized him, as her eyes shot out a flow of dim light. “Really?”
“I don’t lie.” Leylin said.
Fergie was startled. After a while, she furrowed her brows and then said, “Good innate endowment.” She then contemplated for a while.
Fergie didn’t continue. She seemed to muse over something. After a long time, energy waves rippled from her, and it seemed to get stronger from time to time. The big Divine Crystal in her hand wasn’t shiny anymore, as the energy inside had been absorbed completely.
“Back to work.”
That beast continued to dig the meteorolite, scattering the five-colored Perish Essence pieces. Fergie took most of them, and Leylin just needed to collect the ones she missed. It was much easier than when he worked with Decca.
It was another unfathomable period of ore exploitation.
During this process, he had used the low-quality Divine Crystals to restore his energy. Leylin could feel his Essence Qi ancient tree getting more vibrant, while his realm became steadier, and he was advancing steadily.
Today, while Fergie was using her strange power to collect the five-colored Perish Essence, a diamond-shaped mark on her forehead glowed all of a sudden.
Fergie’s countenance changed a little bit, and her moving fingers trembled. Dozens of five-colored Perish Essence pieces shot out, but she missed them.
Fergie stopped, pointing at the beast.
The beast stopped digging, standing still in the piles of rocks.
Fergie looked grim. She squinted as if she was talking with someone using the mark on her head. Gradually, her face became more grimaced. A gleam of anxiety and worry appeared in her eyes.
“Another force has come to this meteorolite. They are much stronger than us.” Fergie stayed quiet for a while and then opened her eyes wider. The mark on her forehead didn’t glow anymore, indicating that her conversation had ended. “Anmou went to negotiate with him. If he fails, perhaps… we will have a fight,”
“Precarious situation… How strong?”
Fergie beamed a forced smile. “Two King God Realm warriors and six Peak of True God Realm warriors. Seems like they’re prepared to devour us. I hope he can negotiate with them. Otherwise, we will be in big trouble.”
“He doesn’t seem the type to act tactfully.. ”
Fergie looked surprised and shook her head. “You have good eyes… He is a bit hard headed.”
She ordered the beast directly.
That beast grunted, then started to dig towards another direction hurriedly. Just like a pangolin, it dug another cave deeper into the rock wall.
Fergie frowned while explaining. “Anmou’s a simple-minded person. His temper isn’t good either. If he fails to negotiate, and we have to fight, he will risk his life for sure. Anmou is at the King God Realm. Even if we get defeated, he can protect himself and run away. And we will be… So, we should stay here and watch.”
“You seem to have some backup plan.”
It looked like Fergie wanted to disband. She didn’t want to fight, and she wanted to run away to save her life before the fight happened.
Under Leylin look, Fergie still acted naturally. “I don’t want to die. If you don’t want to live, you can go there.”
She paused for a while and then continued. “When the battle happens, you guys, the low strangers, will die first. Those who go with you will be killed shortly if they show themselves. If you get there, you will be killed like them. Anmou won’t care about your life of death.”
“Yeah.. ” Leylin looked above and felt the commotion. He really wasn’t much interested in going out and fighting, it would be difficult to fight against such a force.
‘So long fellas I wish you don’t die.’ Leylin thought about his other companions from Grace Mainland but he didn’t need more than a moment to abandon them and move on.
BOOM BOOM!
Explosions reverberated rumblingly. Shortly, a tremendous tremor transmitted from above their heads. That tremor carried a furious energy shockwave and mysterious power, intruding into the ground.
Fergie shouted with a grim face. “We should move now!”
She then ran into the passage the beast had dug as fast as if she were flying.
‘She seems to be an important person…She can even dare to run away, it must be a grave felony. I guess I’ll follow you for a while.’ Leylin quietly followed Fergie by jumping into the passage.
“How’s the situation up there?”
“The battle has begun. Anmou can hold the others for a while. If we leave here, we won’t get ambushed.” Fergie didn’t care about him, just talking. “Of course, Anmou will hate me. He will report me for sure when he gets back. Anyway, it’s okay. Being reported is better than being dead.”
The beast in front of them was like a fast pangolin digging the rock.
After a while, the beast roared and pushed further. It then jumped into the immense darkness.
Leylin and Fergie followed the beast, falling into the icy-cold darkness.
Fergie jumped on the beast and, Leylin also flew over and landed on the beast, sitting behind her.
Fergie didn’t say anything apart from lightly frowning, she patted the beast. It then sped up like a black thunderbolt, dashing towards a meteorolite in front of them. Shortly, they fell into an energy storm.
Fergie’s body glowed gloriously in the furious gust of the energy storm. This halo came from her garments, creating a thick layer that covered her entirely. This protection kept her safe from the impact of the energy storms.
Leylin simply activated his Petrification Martial Spirit. His body became rigid in just a blink. Each muscle of his became strangely firm with a mysterious energy that could neutralize the energy of the storm.
Fergie could sense something. She turned her head, looking at him. Her eyes got brightened.
As they were in the middle of an energy storm, she had to use her magical clothes to resist. But Leylin, who was bare body, could withstand the storm easily. His intimidatingly tenacious body was much stronger than most of the True God Realm warriors she had met.
She was astounded, looking at him. At this moment, he had gained a higher value in her eyes.
‘Everyone appreciates a genius.’
In her eyes, this kid, who came from a low-level continent had something strange. As he was too young to reach the True God Realm, his innate endowment was excellent. And, his tenacious body showed that he had been trained arduously for a significantly long time.
Everybody knew that physical training was more strenuous than increasing the realm and power. Each warrior who had a significantly strong body all had a tough will, as they were the most persistent and terrifying persons.
Fergie’s eyes brightened. She considered for a while and then nodded discreetly as she had a good calculation.
‘These eyes.. ‘ Leylin squinted and accurately caught the sly crafty gleam in her eyes. He understand that gleam very well, it wasn’t one of finding something useful but more of concocting a scheme. Those eyes were very much in indistinguishable to his own when he calculates and plot against people.
‘You are still an amateur to let your feelings show.. Big mistake.’ Leylin remained nonchalant and stood quietly.
The beast moved forward in the dark space quickly, gliding over massive meteorolites and heading towards the edge of the meteorolite sea.
Fergie didn’t say anything, staying silent all the way. Sometimes, she took out the Divine Crystals to restore her energy. She wasn’t worried about Anmou’s team fighting with the others at all.
In this cold and dark space, Leylin didn’t know how much time had passed. He only knew that they had crossed several hundred meteorolites, advancing through a long distance.
Eventually, the beast crossed the bizarre meteorolite sea, entering an endless starry sky.
This mysterious starry sky was stunning. Countless stars were twinkling charmingly. Flows of Star energy crossed a far distance to gather on his body, as his Star Martial Spirit was refilled.
This was the marvelous feature of his Star Martial Spirit. Even if he didn’t have any other energy sources to use, as long as there were stars in the sky, he could still use the Star Martial Spirit to supplement the consumed energy.
The beast continued to fly in this vast starry sky. Meteors shot, passing by the beast they were riding. Those meteors were illuminating gloriously, much better than the most beautiful firework that enthralled people’s souls.
In this endless starry sky, they could often be impacted by the perilous energy storms. Some were much more dangerous than the meteorolite sea.
Fortunately, Fergie seemed to be familiar with this starry area. On this journey, they had tried their best to avoid the tremendous energy storms. They had taken the long way around the storms and never dared to intrude.
“Dangerous but beautiful…..These dreadful energy storms are much like beautiful girls. You’ll get caught and crushed even before you know it. By the way where are we going?”
“You are a strange dude comparing women with those things. As for where we are going it’s a safe place which can help me dodge away the punishment of abandoning my post and running away.”
“Nice…. I can help you too by the way.” Leylin voice fell and before Fergie could mock the hilly billy who didn’t know the immensity of heaven earth, something completely unexpected happened.
“Puff!”
Leylin’s right arm pierced through Fergie’s clothes and then her back like a sharp spear. She looked down and could see his five fingers jutting out of her tender chest.
“Crack!”
His hand stirred one round, smashing all internal organs inside her body. Blood splashed everywhere, staining his body.
The color in Fergie’s eyes faded away, replaced by despair. Her breath of life diminished.
‘Wha.. ‘ She couldn’t even understand the situation before she died. Her realm of Third Sky of True God Realm was paper thin before Leylin.
Leylin got a lot of blood all over the flying beast.
*Moww*
The beast started to shake razing in anger Leylin frowned and raised his right leg, kicking the beast.
*Boom*
Although the beast was very useful in digging up five-colored Perish Essence pieces and probably a Level 9 beast but it couldn’t stand a full powered attack from Leylin, dying immediately.
Leylin looking at Fergie’s dead body immediately opened his soul altar and sent command to Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame to imprison her soul altar.
“I can’t let you go so easily you need to donate some information to me.. Consider this your punishment for daring to plot against me.” Leylin looked at her shivering soul altar surrounded by devilish flames of Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame.
‘A. I. Chip use the Ghost Mark Clan soul scripture to enter her sea of consciousness, locate the seal of memories and extract everything. No need to care about the target soul survivability.’
[Beep! Task established.. ] The cold voice of A. I. Chip intoned as the suffering of Fergie continued even after her death.
The Ghost Mark Clan who were actually predecessors of Demonic Sound Clan had a soul technique called the Great Soul Search Technique.
The Great Searching Soul Technique was a sinister technique. It burned the victim’s soul to generate the energy to draw the memory out of the victim. After the soul was burned out, most of the victims would die tragically. Some who survived would become retarded without memory.
The A. I. Chip analyzed and optimized it to cater Leylin’s needs. With this Leylin can plunder for some much needed information, if not for the King God Realm warrior with the team he met previously, Leylin would have most probably dealt with them the same way he did with this poor girl.
