Chapter 1015: Strange Corpse
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Last time, Han Fei forgot to ask Ren Tianfei what the eyes on the fish skin were.
This was already the third or fourth time he had seen these eyes…
Even a fool would know what the eyes represented. It represented being extraordinary.
Han Fei looked at the eyes, hoping to find some information from the wall patterns around the altar.
However, for some reason, he felt a chill down his spine.
Suddenly, in his vision, he saw the eyes that were originally engraved at the top of the room move.
The eye was originally looking at the corpse on the ground, but now it was already looking at Han Fei.
“Gulp!”
Han Fei swallowed. The Invincible Heart was actually resisting.
Han Fei suddenly shouted, “What are you looking at? Come here if you have the guts!”
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
Hum!
As soon as Han Fei said so, the rotting corpse on the ground suddenly stood up.
“Holy sh*t, he’s really coming!”
Han Fei flew back and looked back, only to see the other people frantically gesturing at him. Following their gestures, he saw a pair of blurry eyes appear in the void.
“F*ck! There’s one outside too?”
Swis.h.!.+
Han Fei retreated all the way to the bottom of the altar, and the corpse quickly followed. This left Han Fei and the others dumbfounded. What the h.e.l.l was this?
It wasn’t until Han Fei left the altar that he heard the voices.
Zhang Xuanyu asked, “What’s this?”
Li Luoluo: “Let’s quickly spread out.”
Luo Xiaobai said, “Prepare for battle.”
Jiuyin Ling waved her hand in the air, and a seal appeared. “Seal!”
It was obvious that the corpse paused for a moment. However, the corpse seemed to have some unknown power, which helped him escape the restraints on him.
“Devil Change!”
Taking advantage of the moment when the corpse paused, Han Fei activated the Devil Change and spread his Phantom Gla.s.s Wings.
Han Fei shouted, “Spread out. I’ll fight him.”
As he spoke, Han Fei’s figure approached the corpse. As the saying went, the skilled were bold. In terms of close-quarter combat skills, Han Fei wasn’t weak at all.
At that moment, Han Fei’s body turned golden. He grabbed the corpse with one hand and slammed it with his shoulder.
BAM!
A violent explosion occurred between the two of them. Han Fei never expected a corpse to be so powerful.
“Seal!”
“Instant Mystic Spear”
“Worm Devour.”
At that instant, everyone attacked at the same time. Countless tiny vines extended from the corpse’s feet and bound it.
Holding the saber in one hand, Han Fei twisted his body and unleashed the Drawing at close range.
Clang~
Clink!
BAM!
The saber hit the corpse hard, but the sound made Han Fei’s scalp tingle. This thing’s hardness was comparable to a mid-quality divine weapon?
The corpse was instantly sent flying by Han Fei. It rolled on the ground countless times and a stick stabbed an inch into his chest.
As for the stick in Zhang Xuanyu’s hand, it bent like a bow.
“Hoooooo!”
The corpse trembled and Zhang Xuanyu was sent flying. He tumbled dozens of times before stopping.
As for Li Luoluo’s worms that attempted to burrow into the corpse’s body, they were crushed by a jolt.
With a tap of her finger, Jiuyin Ling poked the corpse’s head.
The corpse was sent flying again and rolled dozens of times on the ground.
With a crack, a saber mark appeared on the corpse’s chest—it had just been slashed by Han Fei.
“True Martial Fiend Saber.”
Along with the True Martial Fiend Saber appeared the Sky Swallowing Technique.
Using the Sky Swallowing Technique to suck the corpse, Le Renkuang slashed at its head.
Clang~
The backlash from the saber’s might hit Le Renkuang’s hand, body, and face. It made him feel what power was…
Smack!
Fortunately, Le Renkuang’s strike was rather violent and split the corpse’s head apart.
Han Fei took the opportunity to dodge and slashed at his arm with the Drawing.
Luo Xiaobai immediately understood what Han Fei meant. The vines grabbed the limbs of the corpse and tore them apart.
Clang~
This battle lasted for nearly a hundred seconds before they killed the corpse. This was even after Han Fei used Devil Change.
When Han Fei looked up again, he found that the eyes had disappeared.
Zhang Xuanyu kicked the corpse and said, “Good lord, isn’t this too hard? This corpse is comparable to a divine weapon!”
Le Renkuang rubbed his stomach and said, “More than that! His strength is astonis.h.i.+ng. Fortunately, we came together. Otherwise, it would have been dangerous.”
Han Fei nodded. “No wonder there are so few high-level secret realms. And this is a secret realm at the level of a Hidden Fisher. How strong will the Law Enforcer-level secret realms be?”
Luo Xiaobai said, “What did you see up there?”
Li Luoluo said, “That’s right! Just now, you stood there without moving. Then, a pair of eyes appeared in the void. It was terrifying.”
Han Fei curled his lips and said, “Nothing. Just a pair of eyes. Now, the corpses are useless. Let’s go.”
After a moment.
When Han Fei led everyone up the altar, his eyes suddenly widened.
Everyone looked at Han Fei speechlessly. Zhang Xuanyu said dumbfoundedly, “No way! Fei, why is there another one?”
Han Fei was also stunned. “Holy sh*t, retreat!”
A hundred seconds pa.s.sed.
With their previous experience, they cooperated perfectly and killed the corpse, their faces filled with puzzlement.
Han Fei said with a sullen face, “When I was up there, I only saw one corpse. But when I went up with you, I saw another one. If nothing goes wrong, there’s still one when we go over now. The problem isn’t the corpse, but the eyes.”
Everyone exchanged looks. What kind of strange altar was this? How could there be endless corpses?
Luo Xiaobai said, “Therefore, it’s not that the seniors didn’t explore this place back then. They did, but new corpses kept appearing. But what are those eyes? There are also such eyes in the giant ruins. They seem to be above the clouds.”
Han Fei nodded. “Let’s go to the next one. This ruin isn’t that big. I think it’s a building. Who knew that we would come here to fight… Let’s go to the next one.”
Han Fei basically knew what this secret realm was for. It was to tell the people that the eyes were strange, and this secret realm was to remind them to pay attention.
Regardless of whether there was anything else worth investigating, this secret realm was still in his hands. There was no need to repeatedly fight with a corpse.
Furthermore, Han Fei suspected that the origin of this corpse didn’t seem to be from the plains of the underground city.
Therefore, he thought of the Heavenly Palace.
Han Fei still remembered that when he took the Origin Water, the shadow had said that the Heavenly Palace was now filled with such corpse puppets. Not only were there low-level ones, but there were also many Explorer-level puppets.
Han Fei thought that even if he came to this secret realm again, he would have to come alone.
Han Fei: Let’s go to the next place.”
“Wait a moment.”
Luo Xiaobai interrupted Han Fei. “I have a question.”
“Huh?”
Luo Xiaobai looked at the altar and said, “For some reason, I have a feeling that the ruins we have pa.s.sed through are related. We have seen these eyes in the ruins of giants. However, don’t forget that above the eyes is a palace.”
Jiuyin Ling suddenly said, “By the way, there’s something I don’t know if I should say.”
Everyone looked over and Han Fei couldn’t help but say, “Go ahead!”
Jiuyin Ling pursed her lips and said, “When I cultivated the Comfort Technique, I was once brought into an illusion by a strange force. I once saw a huge floating island I had never seen before. There was a melodious voice nearby.”
Everyone was waiting, but Jiuyin Ling blinked and fell silent.
Han Fei was stunned. “That’s it?”
Jiuyin Ling’s face turned slightly red as she opened her mouth. “Yes.”
The corner of Han Fei’s mouth twitched. “Alright! At least it’s information.”
With her face flushed red, Jiuyin Ling smiled awkwardly. It wasn’t easy for her to interject, but it didn’t seem to be effective.
Han Fei said, “What Xiaobai said makes sense. If these ruins are all connected, it means that all the ruins in the Thousand Star Proving Ground are probably connected. More or less, they involve some secrets about the Age of Doom.”
Luo Xiaobai said, “If that’s the case, our ruins-type Star Beads should be very valuable.”
Han Fei immediately said in distress, “But we can’t s.n.a.t.c.h the ruins of other families!”
Jiuyin Ling opened her mouth and said slowly, “My family should have a few.”
Luo Xiaobai added, “My family has some too.”
Han Fei couldn’t help but laugh dryly. “No rush. I’ve already achieved my goal of coming to the Thousand Star Proving Ground. My main goal is to sweep through the secret realms, which is suitable for Su Daiji and the others to cultivate. As for exploring the ruins of the Age of Doom, it’s just my own interest. Besides, even if we don’t have enough ruins, there are still the three Holy Lands to explore. So don’t worry. There’s plenty of time to do these things.”
In fact, Han Fei already had a guess. If this pair of eyes could take out a corpse, could it take a person up?
If his guess was right, would eight-star or nine-star secret realms directly appear in the Heavenly Palace?
In Han Fei’s opinion, this ruin might also be a spatial tunnel that allowed one to come and go freely. So, why couldn’t it directly lead to the Heavenly Palace?
