Chapter 1144: Han Fei’s Setup
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
On the Avenger, Ximen Linglan solved the seriously injured Clam Girl and immediately rushed back.
Ximen Linglan said anxiously, “Idiot, how are you? I just felt the energy riot in your body. Are you going to make a breakthrough?”
Han Fei nodded slightly. “I can’t control my strength in combat now.”
Ximen Linglan frowned. “Then you’d better not fight for now.”
Han Fei shook his head. “I’m going to the Grand Myriad Mountains. Take the Avenger back to the city. Be careful in case the big clans take revenge. I think they must have already learned the news..”
Ximen Linglan frowned. “Do you really not want me to go? You’ve never left me in your life.”
Han Fei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Are you worried that I will be eaten by a big fish halfway through?”
Ximen Linglan snorted. Seeing that Han Fei could still joke on her, she said seriously, “Yang Xiaogao is on the s.h.i.+p. He is also an Explorer. He can handle it.”
Han Fei shook his head. “Junior Explorers and Advanced Explorers are two completely different concepts. Don’t worry. I’ll be back soon.”
In the end, Ximen Linglan nodded helplessly. “Then hurry up. If you don’t come back in half a month, I’ll go to the Grand Myriad Mountains to find you.”
Han Fei grinned. “Okay!”
…
Han Fei stopped tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Avenger, his face cold. His strength couldn’t be suppressed for long. Once he made a breakthrough, he would definitely reach the peak and be very strong.
At that time, his soul injury would completely recover.
At that time, could he restore the remaining memories? He didn’t know! After all, there seemed to be a restriction of the Great Dao.
However, the consequences of this breakthrough were unpredictable. If he really remembered everything, to keep certain secrets, he might be directly sent out of this s.p.a.ce. At this moment, Han Fei still had some things to do. After he settled everything here, he could leave in peace.
Of course, even if he made a breakthrough, he might not go back, but Han Fei couldn’t take the risk.
Han Fei floated in the air and thought for a full two hours, before he turned around and walked towards the Storm Strait.
…
The Beast King Valley.
“w.a.n.g Han, you finally came back?”
“Fool, why are you only an advanced law enforcer?”
“Little w.a.n.g Han, let’s fight? I’m Ape Six!”
The beast king roared, “Go play. My disciple, come with me.”
When n.o.body was around, the first thing the beast king said was, “You can’t hold it back anymore?”
Han Fei nodded. “Master, I’ll definitely make a breakthrough in at most half a year.”
The Beast King took a deep breath. “If you forcibly seal your strength, it may be useful. However, your soul is protected by a special treasure, so it’s a little difficult!”
Han Fei said, “Master, I didn’t come here to continue to suppress my realm. I have a feeling that I’m going to leave.”
“Huh?”
The beast king’s eyes widened. “Have you found a way to cross the river of time?”
Han Fei thought to himself, There are only two possibilities. One is that after I make a breakthrough, my memories will be completely restored and I can’t stay in this world. The other is the Time Ring.
Either way, there must be a problem with his breakthrough this time. This feeling was very strong.
Han Fei shook his head slightly. “I’m not sure. I just have a strong hunch.”
The Beast King pondered for a moment. “Then why did you come back to our time in the first place?”
A gleam of determination flashed in Han Fei’s eyes. “I want to set up a trap. I hope that you can help me when the time comes, Master.”
“What trap?”
Han Fei said leisurely, “To kill a Venerable.”
…
Han Fei went to the Giant King City and the Demon Plant Mountain respectively. However, at this moment, the Giant King and the others were still sleeping and recovering from their injuries. Perhaps they knew that Han Fei had come, but they didn’t talk to him.
Han Fei just bowed and left. He didn’t know the divine son well, so he didn’t go to see him.
It had only taken Han Fei seven days to leave the Grand Myriad Mountains. This was because Han Fei was only in the Law Enforcer realm. If he were an Explorer, his speed would be at least several times faster than now.
When Han Fei was not around, Ximen Linglan had been sitting on the bow of the s.h.i.+p, looking far away, waiting.
Shua!
Han Fei suddenly appeared and looked at Ximen Linglan with a smile. “I’m back.”
Ximen Linglan rose abruptly. “What did the beast king say?”
Han Fei grinned and said, “It’s a little difficult, but not a big problem. Master gave me an amazing technique. Maybe I can make a breakthrough and transcend the heavenly tribulation.”
“Huh?”
Ximen Linglan was stunned for a moment. He had been suppressing his realm for so long, but now he could make a breakthrough and transcend the heavenly tribulation directly?
If so, didn’t it mean that Han Fei was about to break through to the Explorer realm?
Ximen Linglan was overjoyed and quickly asked, “What should you prepare?”
Han Fei said, “I need to choose a place to transcend the heavenly tribulation. My heavenly tribulation might be troublesome. It might not be enough to rely on the Avenger alone. I need to set up an array with the power of the earth veins.”
Ximen Linglan frowned. “Do you need to borrow the power of earth veins to transcend the heavenly tribulation? Where can you do that?”
Han Fei sighed. “Originally, the Grand Myriad Mountains was a good choice. With the mountains and dragon veins as the array, I can resolve this disaster. But in that case, the Grand Myriad Mountains will be greatly damaged. Therefore, I have to find a place similar to the earth veins in the sea.”
Ximen Linglan frowned. “Are you talking about the Sea of Mystifying Mountains in the north?”
Han Fei nodded. “Yes.”
Ximen Linglan said, “But that’s the territory of the big clans, right?”
Han Fei snorted coldly. “All places are the outer waters of the City of Justice. Besides, they know my ident.i.ty, so they shouldn’t dare to attack me. Don’t worry. After this disaster, I may be able to get out of trouble.”
Ximen Linglan thought for a moment. If she went to the Sea of Mystifying Mountains to transcend the heavenly tribulation, there might be a big problem. But Han Fei was indeed different. He was the disciple of the four venerables. If someone dared to mess around with him when he transcended the heavenly tribulation, it would be provoking the Grand Myriad Mountains.
With this in mind, Ximen Linglan nodded. “Okay, let’s go.”
Han Fei grinned. “I’m in a good mood today. What do you want to eat? I can cook for you.”
Ximen Linglan smiled brightly. “Stir-fried Squid!”
“Okay!”
It was also when Han Fei returned that a Venerable suddenly opened his eyes from his cultivation in the place occupied by the big clans in the north. “Huh! Why is the beast king going to the Black Stone City?”
…
The sea area was so vast that the probability of boats b.u.mping into each other was extremely low. Therefore, even when the Avenger reached the waters of the Sea of Mystifying Mountains, they didn’t encounter any big clan s.h.i.+ps.
After all, this place was still far away from the land and belonged to the deep sea area. What he was more worried about was actually the threat from the big demons in the deep sea.
Half a month had pa.s.sed, and Han Fei was swimming among the mountains, setting up arrays and making plans. Everyone on the Avenger felt that Han Fei was really going to make a breakthrough this time.
Someone said, “How strong do you think Marshal Han will be after he becomes an Explorer?”
Someone shook his head. “I don’t know! I guess he might be comparable to an advanced Explorer.”
Someone sighed. “That can’t be! After all, he has to surpa.s.s the peak of the law enforcer realm. But in any case, he can definitely be comparable to an intermediate Explorer.”
Yang Xiaogao said solemnly, “Now, what we should worry about is not how strong he will be when he becomes an Explorer, but how strong the Heavenly Tribulation will be. Haven’t you seen that Marshal Han has been setting up arrays for half a month? He plans to resist the Heavenly Tribulation with the power of the mountains… Tsk, I’m afraid only Marshal Han needs to transcend the heavenly tribulation like this.”
A newcomer couldn’t help asking, “Master Gao, is the heavenly tribulation really so terrifying. How did you feel back then?”
Yang Xiaogao shook his head. “How did I feel? Without Marshal Han’s array, I felt that I was going to be killed. How did I feel? It was really horrible!”
Ximen Linglan shouted, “Stop talking. Stay on high alert. If a big demon attacks, open up all the arrays on the boat and ram it.”
Everybody s.h.i.+vered and shouted in unison, “Yes, Captain.”
Bang!
Han Fei broke out of the water, glanced at the Avenger, and shouted in a low voice, “All s.h.i.+ps, step back. When I’m transcending the heavenly tribulation, don’t enter within 50 kilometers.”
Ximen Linglan came to Han Fei. “Aren’t you going to borrow the power of the Avenger?”
Han Fei said, “Have you forgotten what path I took? Since I’ve embarked on the path of invincibility, even if it’s a heavenly tribulation, it’s still my enemy. When a danger comes and I have to use it, I will still use it. Just empty out the Avenger and don’t have anyone on it.”
Ximen Linglan sensed the extreme confidence and dominance in Han Fei’s words, but she couldn’t help but worry.
Han Fei said, “Remember, don’t enter my lightning tribulation area. Otherwise, not only will it attack you, but my heavenly tribulation may even become stronger.”
Ximen Linglan took a deep breath. “Okay, stay safe.”
Han Fei nodded slightly. “Don’t worry. I’ll transcend the heavenly tribulation in an hour. Go back to the boat first.”
With that, Han Fei sat on the sea.
Seeing this, Ximen Linglan could only retreat.
At this moment, no one was more nervous than her. She knew that if she survived this disaster, Han Fei would probably be unimaginably strong.
On the boat, Yang Xiaogao was shocked. “Captain, won’t Marshal Han need the Avenger?”
Ximen Linglan shook her head slightly. “It’s none of your business. Just do your job.”
As for Han Fei, he sighed inwardly. What heavenly tribulation? I just made it up.
Han Fei never thought that the sixth level of the True Spirit Fis.h.i.+ng Art would be deduced under such circ.u.mstances.
He was gambling, but he felt that he had the ability to do so.
The deduction of the sixth level required a billion points of spiritual energy, which must be appalling and turbulent. Also, according to the level of Void Fis.h.i.+ng, the sixth level of Void Fis.h.i.+ng could reach the venerable level, divine-quality.
What did it mean?
Above the Venerable level was the Sea King Realm. And the Demon Purification Pot could only deduce Venerable-level, low-quality at best.
Although he could continue to deduce it, it would damage the Demon Purification Pot.
Han Fei still chose to deduce it because he knew where the third little vine was, and he would get it in the end. Even if the Demon Purification Pot was damaged in this forced deduction, it should be able to withstand it.
He could always find a way to make up for it later.
Besides, this deduction might be a chance. The sixth level of Void Fis.h.i.+ng was at least a venerable-level technique. The safest situation was to deduce it when he reached the venerable level.
However, it was impossible for Han Fei to really wait to reach the Venerable level. In fact, the Explorer level would also do. And his physique could be said to have reached the peak. Under his full strength, he could match an intermediate Explorer. Of course, he could give it a try!
…
Han Fei didn’t dare to talk to Ximen Linglan anymore.
Otherwise, he would have said a lot similar to the last words. With Ximen Linglan’s smartness, she would definitely sense it.
Therefore, he might as well not say it.
He was already prepared. When he made a breakthrough, the deduction would begin.
The two were connected. Even if the Great Dao noticed it, the deduction had already begun. It had to be completed, right?
Half an hour later, Han Fei’s body was obviously surging with spiritual energy. 50 kilometers away, everyone looked at the sea nervously.
Ximen Linglan’s palms were sweaty, her body was tense, but her face was expressionless.
Buzz buzz buzz!
On the surface of the sea, vortexes appeared one after another, making Han Fei seem to be in them.
A tremendous amount of spiritual energy rose to the sky, forming visible spiritual energy storms.
Gulp!
Everyone swallowed. Is this the beginning?
This scene was shocking enough. Han Fei was just advancing from an advanced law enforcer to a peak-level one, but caused such a huge commotion. Wouldn’t his heavenly tribulation scare people to death?
Han Fei had indeed set up arrays on the mountains. However, in addition to the spiritual energy arrays, there were also various killing arrays to prevent other creatures from attacking him. He estimated that if he really made it through, most of the mountains would collapse, which would be a great loss to the Sea Clan.
This deduction was also an opportunity. If Han Fei successfully deduced it, he probably wouldn’t have to worry about cultivation techniques until he reached the Venerable realm.
But on the sea, Han Fei didn’t make any arrangements.
He wanted to wait for the big clans to take action and destroy his heavenly tribulation.
Han Fei’s ideal plan was to successfully deduce the technique, but he would definitely be seriously injured.
If the big clans came to cause trouble and try to stp him from transcending the heavenly tribulation, his plan would be successful. This was because they couldn’t break it at all. After all, this wasn’t a real heavenly tribulation.
Then, he would put on the Time Ring and pretend that he was already dead.
When the time came, the beast king would show up and kill the Venerables, and everything would go smoothly and he could also avoid Ximen Linglan’s eyes.
The other situation was that the big clans didn’t take action. But even if they didn’t take action, it wouldn’t change anything. Coming to the Mystifying Mountains to transcend the heavenly tribulation was just an excuse. As long as he disappeared, or said that the big clans wanted to kill him, even if those big clans didn’t take action, the beast king would still take action. Even if he didn’t slaughter them, it shouldn’t be difficult to suppress the big clans for another hundred years.
Everything was going according to Han Fei’s plan. He didn’t hesitate.
No matter how beautiful everything was, he was still not from this world. He had left the Thousand Star City for so long. Who knew what changes had happened there?
Buzz!
Thirteen spiritual energy tornadoes crazily poured into Han Fei’s body, and the surrounding energy was suddenly emptied.
The sky and the earth suddenly changed.
Han Fei’s heart skipped a beat. As he expected, was this realm the limit he left in this world? Even before he started the deduction, the world had changed.
Half an hour later.
Crack!
When the crisp sound of a breakthrough was heard, there was an explosion in the sky.
“Deduce.”
Rumble!
In an instant, within tens of thousands of kilometers, the wind and clouds suddenly changed, and black clouds covered the sky. In the sky, lightning kept exploding. Above the sea, furious tides struck, and huge waves rose.
Everyone held their breath and looked at this scene in shock. Is this the scene of Han Fei transcending the heavenly tribulation?
Almost at the same time.
The three human venerables looked at the sky almost at the same time.
“Is someone transcending the heavenly tribulation? No, the Great Dao is roaring?”
Swish swish swis.h.!.+
All the peak-level Explorers also raised their heads. Something big was bound to happen.
The Beast King stood above the unknown sea area. “The Great Dao doesn’t allow his existence? What did this kid do? Why did he trigger a Heavenly Change? But this change seems to be a little weak.”
…
As if forming a super vortex above the sea, Han Fei was almost wrapped in a spiritual energy coc.o.o.n. However, Ximen Linglan and the others who were close could see that the terrifying amount of spiritual energy was entering Han Fei’s body at an incredible speed.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning struck down without any warning, and the electric arc illuminated the dark sky. The weird electric arc could even jump on the sea, forming a large circle that enveloped the sea area for dozens of kilometers.
As an Explorer, he could already see billions of tiny electric arcs flas.h.i.+ng in the water and the void.
“Hmph!”
Han Fei’s clothes were torn and he was bleeding from his mouth and nose. Electric arcs were dancing on his body.
Shua!
The Divine Healing Technique was activated. Han Fei turned his hand, and thousands of energy fruits appeared, but they were instantly reduced to dust.
“Huff!”
The Swallowing Technique was activated, and the terrifying energy was sucked into Han Fei’s body in one breath.
Boom! Crack! Crack!
The void was illuminated again, and thick lightning enveloped Han Fei. The lightning was about to disappear when…
Boom Boom Boom ~
Bolts of lightning struck down one after another.
Every time lightning struck down, the eyelids of Ximen Linglan and the others twitched, and their hearts trembled.
Someone exclaimed, “Master Gao, Master Gao, didn’t you say that there were only three lightning Tribulations? How many of them are there?”
Yang Xiaogao was stunned too. He looked at Ximen Linglan and asked, “Captain, what happened? Did the Heavenly Tribulation try to kill Marshal Han?”
Ximen Linglan was also stunned. This is a heavenly tribulation? This is torture!
More than 30 bolts of lightning struck down in a row, and it seemed that it needed to acc.u.mulate strength before it stopped for a moment. But at that moment, everyone saw that Han Fei’s skin cracked, his flesh became blurred, and a terrifying vitality was erupting.
They saw more than a thousand energy fruits appear, but then they were turned to dust. On Han Fei’s body, flesh and blood were rapidly growing and repairing.
…
In the sky.
Three Venerables appeared at the same time.
The three of them looked at each other. “It’s w.a.n.g Han. Why is he here?”
Someone shouted, “It seems that he wants to transcend the Heavenly tribulation with the power of the Sea of Mystifying Mountains. But why did this heavenly tribulation anger the rules of the Great Dao?”
“Don’t be hasty. I’ve never heard of such a heavenly tribulation. It wouldn’t be bad if he is killed by it.”
“To be able to trigger such a power, how talented is this kid? No wonder the four venerables of the Grand Myriad Mountains took him in as their disciple.”
Ximen Tian’s eyes were cold. “No, this guy can’t survive this heavenly tribulation. Otherwise, once he becomes a Venerable, who can resist him?”
Someone immediately said, “The beast king seems to have something to do and has gone to the Black Stone City. The Grand Myriad Mountains are only guarded by the Divine Son. Shall we take action?”
Another Venerable said, “Look at the sky. The Heavenly Tribulation doesn’t seem to be stopping at all. Let’s wait and see. If it doesn’t work out, we can still take action. It’s best not to do it ourselves, or the beast king will be angered.”
“Humph, even if we p.i.s.s off the beast king, we can’t let him survive the Heavenly Tribulation!”
The Venerables were chilled. They had seen how domineering Han Fei was. He regarded the big clans as his enemy. Once Han Fei became a Venerable, how could the big clans rise again?
Han Fei didn’t dare to use any secret techniques. He first tried to resist the lightning with the War Body and the Swallowing Technique, but after a round of bombardment, he clearly couldn’t withstand it. Only then did he try to resist the lightning with the terrifying vitality of the Indestructible Body.
Fortunately, he had a lot of resources, and he was giving out energy fruits ceaselessly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After half an hour, Han Fei had directly turned into char. If it weren’t for the fact that they could still feel Han Fei’s breath, Ximen Linglan and company would have collapsed.
As many as hundreds of lightning bolts had struck him.
In the void, Ximen Tian’s eyes were cold. “We can’t wait anymore! This kid’s physique is amazing and he has infinite resources. If he makes it through, what will happen?”
Someone said, “Don’t move. Is there any deeper meaning for this kid to transcend the heavenly tribulation in the Sea of Mystifying Mountains?”
Ximen Tian said, “How is it possible? This kid’s heavenly tribulation is so terrifying. If the beast king is here, how can he not come?”
The three of them performed divination at the same time.
However, they were immediately stunned. The world around this brat was in chaos, and they couldn’t calculate anything!
Someone suggested, “Each family picks a peak-level Explorer. Don’t we have the remains of Venerables? Throw them out and use it as an excuse. Then, we’ll compete for it with our own abilities. Even if this guy dies, it won’t be our responsibility.”
After all, these Venerables all had their own schemes. If the beast king was enraged, they didn’t want him to target their families. If they had to be implicated, it would be good if they could take less responsibility.
However, no matter what, Han Fei couldn’t survive this heavenly tribulation. This was their consensus!
With Han Fei’s personality, he dared to blatantly threaten a Venerable at the Law Enforcer realm. If he really succeeded in transcending the heavenly tribulation, what would happen?
Therefore, they would rather offend the beast king than let Han Fei survive this disaster!
Half an hour later, Han Fei’s breath became weaker and weaker. If it weren’t for the energy fruits and spiritual energy gathering, even Ximen Linglan felt that Han Fei might not have been able to survive this strange heavenly tribulation.
At this moment, the lightning strikes slowed down, and everyone’s eyes lit up.
On the Avenger’s side, everyone was shouting, “Marshal Han, hold on!”
“Marshal Han, you are invincible.”
“Marshal Han, we’ll wait for you to come back and continue to explore the sea.”
“…”
Suddenly, three figures tore through the void. The three of them wore battle suits and held giant s.h.i.+elds, rus.h.i.+ng into the field at an extremely fast speed.
Ximen Linglan shouted angrily, “A*shole, w.a.n.g Han is the disciple of the four venerables. If you dare to touch him, you will die.”
Ximen Linglan rushed forward, Yang Xiaogao followed closely behind, and a group of peak-level law enforcers roared out.
“F*ck, do you want to die?”
“How dare you touch Marshal Han? Go to h.e.l.l.”
“B*stard from the big clans, stop!”
However, one of the three shouted, “The remains of a Venerable are here. We are just competing for opportunities.”
As he spoke, a ray of light was smashed into the deep sea.
Han Fei was really dying. In fact, he should become an Explorer before he deduced the sixth level of Void Fis.h.i.+ng.
This time, the consumption of resources was terrifying.
He felt that a weird power was really trying to kill him. If it weren’t for the Demon Purification Pot’s rapid swallowing ability, he probably wouldn’t have survived this even with the vitality of the Indestructible Body.
At this moment, seeing the strong masters of the big clans coming at him, no one knew that under the charred skin, Han Fei’s lips twitched.
At this moment, a seemingly ordinary ring suddenly appeared at Han Fei’s fingertips.
At that moment, the ring, which was originally the size of a baby’s finger, became bigger and bigger the moment it touched Han Fei. In an instant, it turned into a dragon-shaped ring and slipped on Han Fei’s finger.
Ka ka ka!
Han Fei turned his head with difficulty, his flesh and blood were being torn. He looked at the three peak-level Explorers and opened his mouth with difficulty. “Boom.”
Seeing this scene, the three of them were speechless. What did w.a.n.g Han mean? Was he struck silly?
Boom!
Another lightning bolt struck down, and the lightning enveloped Han Fei.
Han Fei felt that there was a power trying to obliterate his vitality.
However, a blue light flashed at his fingertips, and a vortex hole appeared.
Shua!
Everyone saw that in the lightning, the person was twisting and changing.
Buzz!
However, this bolt of lightning seemed to have acc.u.mulated some more power. Therefore, it lasted a little longer. When the lightning disappeared, Han Fei was nowhere to be seen.
On the sea, there was only a large amount of coal-like flesh and blood.
“Roar!”
There was a roar, which seemed to come from the endless sky.
