Chapter 365
Che Tai Xian looked up at the barrier on the horizon.
The battle was, finally over. Now all that was needed was to break through this barrier and pray to the Destruction Star God.
To publicize the traitorous actions of Yong Zhou, that bitch!
“Little Chan…” The undead Che Eunwoo took a few steps forward, his voice stiff and hoarse.
The sweet girl in the distance breathed a sigh of relief, having survived a near-death experience. However, she ignored Che Eunwoo and happily called out ‘Tai Xian Brother’ before scurrying towards Che Tai Xian.
Che Eunwoo’s pale pupils instantly froze.
Che Tai Xian remained expressionless.
Now that his wife was dead, the best candidate for dual cultivation with the Yin-Yang Mirror was undoubtedly his brother’s girlfriend. Luckily, Eunwoo had already died long ago, so even if he was displeased, he couldn’t resist.
He looked at the sweet girl running towards him. She wore a JK uniform with pigtails, and her exquisite little face was full of youthful energy, looking much more vibrant than his wife.
“Tai Xian ge~ ”
The sweet girl’s pigtails swayed as she ran, but Che Tai Xian’s pupils suddenly constricted!
“Quick, dodge!!”
However, behind the girl, a strange humanoid halo appeared very suddenly. In less than a second, it condensed into a physical form – the K-Masked Man!
The K-Masked Man grabbed the girl’s slender neck from behind. As the girl looked on in astonishment and confusion, the Spirit Restricting Rope once again bound her entire body, squeezing her tightly.
“Little Chan!!” The undead Che Eunwoo’s mouth parted as he let out a low growl. He hadn’t expected such a turn of events. This bastard K-Masked Man was still alive!
“Mmm~~~~”
Che Eunwoo’s dazed eyes slowly widened. He watched as his girlfriend was manhandled by the K-Masked Man, her graceful body arching to the extreme, her sweet little face flushed red, her tongue sticking out and her eyes rolling back.
[Four Symbols Array: Within the domain, an enemy has been marked. You can instantly teleport behind this enemy at any time.]
Xia Feng, to be safe, did not rashly choose to resurrect behind Che Tai Xian. Instead, he chose to re-mark the spatial imprint that had disappeared due to death.
He re-marked the sweet girl.
“Bastard—!!” Che Eunwoo finally snapped back to reality, roaring as he charged towards Xia Feng.
“Tai Xian ge~ Eun, Eunwoo, you guys don’t look~~” The sweet girl’s face flushed again, her voice trembling. This time, however, it wasn’t intentional; she was truly ashamed, wanting to cry, utterly desperate.
In front of her dead boyfriend and the man she secretly admired, being toyed with by the evil K-Masked Man to this state made her mind go blank. Her long legs under her short skirt clenched together, and she suddenly lost all strength, collapsing to the ground.
The K-Masked Man behind her disappeared.
“Damn it, come back!!” Che Tai Xian’s enraged roar suddenly echoed from a distance.
However, it was too late. The furious Che Eunwoo had already rushed to the sweet girl’s side.
At the same time, the K-Masked Man entered the Holy Knight Space and quickly appeared before Che Tai Xian.
Che Eunwoo possessed the [Undead Explosion] ability. As long as he protected Che Tai Xian, Xia Feng would not dare to approach Che Tai Xian easily.
But now, the undead Che Eunwoo could move freely due to his emotions. This undoubtedly became a great flaw of this A-class Spirit Robe, and it could be exploited.
“This idiot!!” Che Tai Xian roared curses at Che Eunwoo in his heart. The next moment, the K-Masked Man’s right hand pierced through his chest.
B-grade Spirit Robe · Fingertip Lightning.
Sizzle!!!
Purple lightning flashed, and the dim spirit body twisted, shrieked, and let out a pained roar.
Che Tai Xian’s face began to disintegrate. His eyes, filled with hatred, were a mixture of horror and confusion.
He didn’t understand.
He didn’t understand what kind of monster this K-Masked Man was! He was clearly already dead.
Che Tai Xian gradually lost consciousness. All that remained in his heart was endless regret. His grand ambition had not yet begun, and he was only one step away from becoming Venerable. How could he have died like this?
As Che Tai Xian collapsed, Che Eunwoo desperately reached out, attempting to touch the sweet girl’s skirt. However, his dim undead form, floating in the air, dispersed like smoke and clouds.
Slowly fading away.
“No!!!” he let out a roar of unwilling despair.
As an undead, Che Eunwoo’s emotions were not that rich, and his thoughts were as sluggish as a zombie’s. However, extreme emotional stimulation from his past life would allow him to regain consciousness briefly.
For example, his hatred for the K-Masked Man.
For example, at this moment, he couldn’t bear to imagine what would happen to his beloved girlfriend at the hands of the evil K-Masked Man after he died. Just thinking about the explosive scene made him feel the utmost humiliation.
“Bang—”
The undead Che Eunwoo vanished into thin air, filled with despair.
The sweet girl stared blankly at the scene before her, horror gradually appearing in her eyes.
“Da—da—” A black-robed figure slowly walked up to her.
She stiffly raised her head. The K-Masked Man’s gaze was cold and eerie. It felt as if a demon was hidden beneath the mask. However, luckily.
This perverted demon seemed interested in her young body, so she should not be killed for the time being, the sweet girl judged nervously.
“Da—” The muzzle of the gun was suddenly pressed against her forehead. Her pupils dilated, and before she could react, the masked man behind the black shotgun pulled the trigger.
“Boom!!!”
A thunderous dragon roared out, instantly annihilating the sweet girl, leaving only flesh and bones.
After dealing with the last living witness, Xia Feng began to search for spoils of war.
From the 70 Burning Heaven Cultists, he obtained 3 Fourth-stage Spirit Treasure Fruits, 3 Spirit Infusion Fruits, 29 low-grade Spirit Treasure Fruits, 300 Wisdom Fruits, and a small amount of advanced spirit materials.
These spirit materials, in the past, would have been a fortune to Xia Feng. The Spirit Treasure Fruits alone could have helped him greatly expand his amount of Spirit Particles.
But now, these things were insignificant.
What he wanted now was the Divine Faith Fruit, which could perfect the [Divine Martial Venerable Image], or the Void Fruit, which could enhance [Spatial Perception and Agility], or even Fifth-stage Spirit Treasure Fruits.
!
But… beggars can’t be choosers. After putting them away, Xia Feng rummaged through Che Tai Xian’s personal belongings.
Luckily, Che Tai Xian had brought the materials for becoming Venerable with him.
[Sky-Mending Stone Embryo: 1 piece]
[Tai Chi Fruit: 4 pieces]
[Fifth-stage Spirit Treasure Fruit: 1 piece]
[Low-grade Soul Stone: 4 pieces]
[High-grade Soul Stone: 1 piece]
[Other Sixth-stage Advancement Spirit Materials: Several]
Xia Feng nodded with satisfaction as he looked at these spoils. Now that he had two Sky-Mending Stone Embryos, it should help Yue Hongli recover a lot of memories and repair her soul.
The Tai Chi Fruit, besides being a key material for becoming Venerable, also possessed the ability to swap positions.
The Tai Chi Fruit looked like a Yin Yang fish, half black and half white.
For example, if Xia Feng cut this black and white fruit in half and took one half with Mu Qingtong, for 24 hours, their souls would be linked.
The person who consumed the black half could forcibly swap positions with the person who consumed the white half once, with no distance limit.
If used well, this thing was a divine artifact that could catch enemies off guard.
The drawback was that each fruit could only be used once.
Of course, because of this drawback, almost no one would waste a Tai Chi Fruit on such a function, as it was a material for becoming Venerable!
Each one was extremely precious!
Only Che Tai Xian, who possessed the Yin-Yang Mirror, could create Tai Chi Fruits with a small probability.
Otherwise, even a Seventh-stage Sage would not possess four Tai Chi Fruits, such a huge fortune.
After dealing with the spoils, Xia Feng collected Che Tai Xian’s last remnant soul into a Soul Stone. He then used the Shadow of the Blood Fiend to clean up the battlefield. After confirming everything was in order, he left without delay.
His five Spirit Artifact slots were now full, so he naturally did not completely annihilate Che Tai Xian’s soul, but left a remnant soul.
His current Spirit Artifact slots were:
B-grade Vermilion Bird Demonic Armor, B-grade Ten Dragon Magic Cannon, B-grade Spirit Restricting Coin, B-grade Excitation Ring, A-class Nascent Ten Sacred Armor.
The Excitation Ring and the Four Symbols Array worked well together. The Spirit Restricting Coin could provide him with a large reserve of Spirit Particles, and when used with the demonic cannon and the sacred bow from the Sacred Armor, it unleashed terrifying power.
He really didn’t know which one to discard.
Alas, he had no choice but to not replace anything for now. By keeping Che Tai Xian’s remnant soul, he could temporarily store the Yin-Yang Mirror within it.
A low-grade Soul Stone could preserve a remnant soul for 1 day, and a high-grade Soul Stone for 10 days.
Xia Feng originally had 1 low-grade Soul Stone given to him by Miss Mu. Adding the 4 low-grade Soul Stones and 1 high-grade Soul Stone from the spoils, he could preserve a remnant soul for a total of 15 days.
His current Spirit Pressure level was early Fourth-stage, approaching mid-stage.
Whether he could reach late-stage, peak, or even break through to Pu Wu (Rank 5) Spirit Pressure and obtain a new Spirit Artifact slot for the Yin-Yang Mirror depended entirely on these short 15 days.
But thinking of Miss Mu’s condescending, playful smile, Xia Feng couldn’t help but sigh. The task was arduous.
