Chapter 1360: Subst.i.tute
Apart from the four battlefields in the Water-Wood World, be it the White Sh.e.l.l Royal City or the trial grounds in the Blood Sea Divine Wood City, everything was very secret.
Han Fei had thought that it wouldn"t be difficult to find a trial secret realm.
It turned out that Han Fei was wrong.
After searching more than 300 secret realms, Han Fei finally found this one. He didn"t know if it was because he was unlucky, but he felt that he had worked hard enough. He explored one secret realm a day on average but it still took him so long to find a trial ground.
If it weren"t for the fact that he was hunting treasure while looking for traces of the Millennium Snappers, Han Fei didn"t think he would have used such a stupid method.
Of course, this method wasn"t bad. Although the secret realms were mostly empty, it wasn"t without gain. G.o.d helped those who were determined. At least, Han Fei accidentally dug into an ancient realm, which turned out to be a place where a great whale in the Venerable realm perished. Although there were layers of seals and arrays, Han Fei still broke in.
At that time, Han Fei saw that the area around the Venerable"s bones was full of spiritual stones that extended nearly a kilometer. Some of the spiritual stones had even corrupted the Venerable"s bones, causing their quality to drop.
But fortunately, Han Fei gained a huge amount of spiritual stones at one time, which increased his wealth by nearly five times.
It was for this reason that Han Fei was willing to explore secret realms one by one. Although he didn"t gain as much since then, he finally found this Blood Demon Proving Ground three days ago.
Logically speaking, it was impossible to enter this place from the outside.
But when he pa.s.sed this place, he found that there were singing sounds coming from a crab cave. Then he found that under the corals, there was another world, a place of crazy devouring.
The so-called place of crazy devouring was the kind of place Han Fei had experienced when he discovered the Big Red Trunk. In such a place, humans would enter illusions, transform into fish, and lead fish to devour each other. The winner would encounter the Red Ball Fruit, and the person who swallowed the fruit would become a Millennium Snapper.
This was the scene Han Fei had once encountered.
However, there seemed to be a slight difference here. Firstly, the species of the fish was different. When he turned into a fish back then, what he turned into was not a Millennium Snapper, but a kind of man-eating fish, but here it was all Millennium Snappers.
Therefore, Han Fei judged that this was a trial ground of the Blood Sea Divine Wood City.
The Millennium Snappers were thrown here and fought each other, and in the end, only the real powerhouses were left.
The only thing Han Fei didn"t understand was that the Millennium Snappers were of the same species. How could the Fish Dragon King sneak in?
Needless to say, there must be a way to differentiate ident.i.ties among the Millennium Snappers. They couldn"t just let anyone in. Otherwise, which party would own the final winners?
However, Han Fei sensed the aura of a strong master, a person who could threaten him.
The old turtle said, "There"s a Venerable, but he doesn"t seem very strong. He might just be a junior Venerable."
Han Fei asked in surprise, "A Venerable is personally taking care of them?"
The old turtle said, "This is not surprising. This kind of place is usually an important trial ground."
Han Fei frowned. "But how can the Fish Dragon King sneak in? This is still a problem."
The old turtle said, "Don"t you have a disguise technique? Why don"t you teach him?"
Han Fei immediately said, "It"s useless even if he learns the low-level ones. If I teach him the high-level ones, where can I find him?"
The old turtle said leisurely, "That"s true. However, it"s not difficult to pretend to be someone else. I do have such a technique. However, You"ll have to catch a Blood Demon first."
Han Fei grinned. "That"s simple. A mere Blood Demon shouldn"t be a problem."
Han Fei turned into a black fog and floated close to the ground towards the trial field.
…
Ji Yue was the examiner of this secret realm. Her main task was to ensure a certain mortality rate and select some excellent Millennium Snappers.
Her perception was constantly patrolling.
In the hunting ground, two Blood Demons were fighting, using various combat skills and chanting runes.
Ye Long"s protective red leaf knife had been shattered, the runes on her body were almost broken, her spiritual energy was almost exhausted, and she was running wildly.
Behind her, someone shouted, "Ye Long, you know that this day will come one day. We have fought 16 rounds. This time, you can"t survive. Curse Essence Poison Spike…"
Swis.h.!.+
All of a sudden, Ye Long paused and shot a water arrow at the person behind her while she was casting the spell.
The person behind her was shocked. She had never seen Ye Long use this move before. When did she learn it?
"Pfft!"
Because her speed was too fast and her strength was too powerful, she struck as fast as a bolt of lightning and killed her enemy in one blow.
"Huh!"
Ji Yue was watching the battle and waiting for one of them to die. She didn"t expect that the person being hunted survived.
"Interesting. She still has a trump card even now. This person is not bad."
However, what she didn"t know was that at the moment Ye Long paused, her soul had already been controlled.
Han Fei"s purpose was very clear. He just needed to hunt one person secretly.
When he hunted one, Han Fei controlled Ye Long to go to a corner, take out a spiritual fruit, and quickly recover.
Han Fei said, "I"ve hunted one. What should I do now?"
The old turtle said, "Then, it"s the Blood Soul Technique. As long as you swallow the soul of this Millennium Snapper and drink her blood, you can play as her and share her memories. The drawback is that the devoured one isn"t really dead. If the soul of the Fish Dragon King can"t suppress her soul, it"s very likely to be counterattacked in the future. Therefore, this method is not profound. However, it"s not difficult to pretend to be her without being detected."
Han Fei frowned. Swallow her soul and eat her blood? The old turtle was truly a big demon.
Han Fei asked the Fish Dragon King, planning to say, This is your only way to sneak into the sea demons.
However, as soon as he told him, the Fish Dragon King gladly accepted it.
Han Fei was lost for words. "Aren"t Heavenly Talents all proud?"
The Fish Dragon King seemed to know what Han Fei was thinking, but he had been tortured by Han Fei for so long. For him, nothing was more disgusting than being humiliated by Han Fei!
Before the Fish Dragon King swallowed Ye Long"s soul, Han Fei looked at her soul first. Han Fei didn"t plan to use the Soul-Attracting Art because the Soul-Attracting Art still needed to be deduced and had side effects now.
Remembering Ye Long"s name and appearance, Han Fei attached to Ye Long in the form of the black mist.
Half a day later, Han Fei replaced the Fish Dragon King with Ye Long. As for the real Ye Long, she had already become soulless and had no vitality left.
The Fish Dragon King was overjoyed. A new ident.i.ty was nothing as long as he could survive.
Han Fei had already extracted part of the Fish Dragon King"s memories and said, "I took so much effort to send you into the Blood Sea Divine Wood City, so I naturally have the ability to find you. You can betray me, but if I see you again, you will definitely die. But if you are willing to cooperate, find a way to become a Heavenly Talent of the Blood Sea Divine Wood City, collect the Big Red Trunk, collect information about the Blood Sea Divine Wood and Patriarch Blood Demon, and tell me about it. You know why I want it, don"t you?"
The Fish Dragon King took a deep breath. "Do you want to destroy the Blood Sea Divine Wood City someday?"
Han Fei shook his head. "No, what I want is that there is no king in the Blood Sea Divine Wood City, but I don"t necessarily have to destroy this race. Dragons can"t be leaderless all the time. If you can, you can become their ruler in the future. But the premise is that you have to be loyal to me."
The Fish Dragon King"s heart trembled as he thought, You"re only in the Dao Seeking realm, but you already want to kill a king and nurture a trusted subordinate?
Han Fei said leisurely, "It"s your business to believe me or not, but whether or not I can do it is my business. That"s all I have to say! I didn"t kill you, so I won"t bother to kill you even if I have the chance in the future. Of course, if I don"t come here again, you are free."
The Fish Dragon King"s expression was complicated. Han Fei is too terrifying! My life is insignificant in his eyes, but he is playing a long game. Is this the gap between me and the top Heavenly Talents?
Looking at this quiet place, the Fish Dragon King couldn"t find Han Fei anymore, and Han Fei"s voice echoed in his head, "You can go now! I"m going to hunt a Venerable for fun."
The Fish Dragon King waved its tail and quickly ran away.
The whole operation was carried out in secret.
However, the Fish Dragon King secretly complained in his heart, You"re too good at bragging! Do you think I don"t know when you transcended the tribulation? It"s only been two years, not even three years. How the f*ck can you hunt Venerables?
However, the Fish Dragon King didn"t know that Han Fei had turned into a shadow and left in the direction where the Venerable was.
The old turtle asked, "Are you really going to hunt a Venerable? Do you not intend to stay here any longer?"
Han Fei sneered. "I have a feeling that the Blood Sea Divine Wood City is dangerous. As you said, there are evil cultivators here, so why should I stay here? I"ve already finished my matters in the Water-Wood World and I don"t think anything will happen there in the short term. Why don"t we end the journey early and return to my Yin-Yang World? I still have a lot of things to do over there."
The old turtle said, "You can give it a try. This place is more than 600,000 kilometers away from the Blood Sea Divine Wood City and in a secret realm. With your current strength, there"s a chance. However, if the other party has already become an intermediate Venerable…"
Han Fei curled his lips. "I"m not stupid. I just want to try a junior Venerable. It doesn"t matter if I can kill her or not. It"s not easy to meet a junior Venerable. I just want to see how big the gap between me and a junior Venerable is."
The old turtle said leisurely, "Although your strength has increased during this period of time, you"re still in the realm of a Half-Venerable no matter how strong you are. Even if you use all your secret methods, you"ll only barely reach the Venerable realm. However, fortunately, you have a lot of Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasures, so you can use part of their power now."
Han Fei grinned and thought to himself, As long as I have the strength to kill a Venerable, I won"t be afraid when I return to the Yin-Yang World. Besides, over the past year, I have been polis.h.i.+ng my foundation and my strength has improved a lot. The upcoming battle on the Scattered Stars Island will be both a trial and a chance for me. Others can"t get the remains of the king, but I may have a chance.
After all, he could change his ident.i.ty, become a sea demon, and cultivate with the remnant body of that king!
