Chapter 2479 - 2479 Lone Star City
2479 Lone Star City
In the Shattered Star Sea.
When Wushuang arrived, she saw Han Fei and Feng Yu sitting cross-legged on a queen ant. This scene stunned her.
“What are you doing?”
Wushuang looked at Han Fei in confusion and said, “Waiting for you!”
!!
“Waiting for me?”
Wushuang was stunned. She knew that she might be slow, but this was already her fastest speed. But to her surprise, Han Fei and Feng Yu arrived early, but instead of going to the finish line, they were waiting for her. What the h.e.l.l?
Wushuang wondered, “Why don’t you wait for me at the finish line?”
Han Fei smiled and said, “If we do, your third place will be gone.”
“Hiss!”
Wushuang’s beautiful eyes froze, and she couldn’t think straight. After a few seconds, she widened her eyes and said, “Ah! Have the others not arrived yet?”
Han Fei smiled mysteriously. “The others didn’t form a team with me, so of course I sent them away. Okay, enough chit chat. Let’s go!”
After a long while, Wushuang finally accepted the fact that she had won without doing anything. She was a little flattered that he had given her a third place.
When she teamed up with Han Fei early on, Wushuang had thought that something would happen. In fact, something did happen.
However, she didn’t expect Han Fei to wait for her before the finish line. Especially when she knew that Han Fei had stopped seven or eight people and even Zhao Qinglong had been eliminated by him, her thoughts almost froze and she couldn’t come back to herself for a long time.
At this moment.
Han Fei patted the queen ant under him and said, “I know that you have swallowed a lot of other queen ants’ inheritance crystals. Your strength has been growing. Be it your body or your physique, your evolution speed is astonis.h.i.+ng. I think you’re not far from proving your Dao, right?”
Over the years, Han Fei had enslaved the queen ant and knew that she was acc.u.mulating strength. Because of her oath, the queen ant had always listened to Han Fei even though a huge number of her herds had been consumed.
After a few years, this queen ant had become the absolute queen of the remaining queen ants.
And now, the three-year pact was about to come to an end. The queen ant knew that she could finally escape control. However, she couldn’t help but have a strange feeling. Han Fei had killed many powerful creatures along the way, which benefited her too. Such a person would probably be very strong in the future!
The queen ant said, “It takes more than a day to prove Dao. The number of my race has plummeted by 80%. If I can prove Dao, I’ll only get a chance to recuperate in the future. If I can’t, I’m afraid my race can only return to where we came from and recuperate.”
Han Fei said, “If my guess is correct, this path is not only my path, but also the path of all the races living in the Shattered Star Sea. If you can complete this path, you might be able to prove Dao, rise and go to a powerful and unknown realm like us. This is your fate.”
The queen ant said, “Maybe you’re right.”
Feng Yu and Wushuang were very curious, thinking that it was unbelievable that Han Fei could conquer a race alone.
However, on second thought, the key was whether they could take them down. Once they did, the benefits would undoubtedly be huge. They wondered if they would embark on this path again in the future. If they came again, would they meet these creatures again?
Han Fei said, “Help me stop the designated people. Let’s call it a day for our cooperation! I made you lose 80% of your clan, but you’ve also got a great opportunity. It’s needless to say who’s right and who’s wrong. In the future, even if you want to take revenge on me, it’ll be fine, but now I hope you can fulfill our three-year agreement.”
The queen ant: “Okay.”
One day later.
Han Fei and the others came to the star system again. Feng Yu and Wushuang were both fascinated.
The middle-aged man, who had been waiting for the contestants, looked at Han Fei strangely again. How could he not know what Han Fei had done? But a game was a game. He would not interfere.
He just felt a little surprised. This guy had set so many people up and eliminated them effortlessly by simply fabricating a rule. If he could pa.s.s the Shattered Star Sea this time, he would definitely be a big shot one day.
The middle-aged man said, “Why? You’re not stopping the contestants anymore?”
Han Fei grinned. “That’s no longer necessary. Senior, will we be considered to have reached the destination if we go to the star?”
The middle-aged man nodded slightly. “Go on your own! If you choose to go in, you’ll have pa.s.sed the finish line. When you reach the star, familiarize yourself with it and wait for the notice. You can go wherever you want and do whatever you want. As long as you don’t fight, cause trouble or wreak havoc, you can do anything. However, the Star Sea Metal-Eating Ants can only stay for a short time at most. After that, they only have two choices. One is to continue walking forward, and the other is to go back.”
The queen ant was smart. She said, “My lord, can you give my clan 300 years? During these 300 years, my clan will stay in the Sea of Stars here and we will definitely leave in 300 years.”
Han Fei couldn’t help but look at the middle-aged man. He knew why the queen ant wanted these three hundred years. There was no other possibility except to prove her Dao.
Perhaps the queen ant understood that with the current size of her race, there was a high chance that they would be destroyed after entering the rear of the Scattered Stars Sea. But since she already had a chance to prove her Dao, it represented a possibility.
Once she proved Dao, she wouldn’t be afraid of the other races.
However, the middle-aged man sneered. “Three hundred years? You only have thirty years. After thirty years, you must leave. Also, although the rear of the Shattered Star Sea is dangerous, it’s not that dangerous. All dangers are relative, and all chances of survival are relative. Besides, it’s wishful thinking if you want to prove Dao in three hundred years. You won’t be able to do it without endless tempering.”
The middle-aged man sounded very firm and affirmative as if he had seen through the queen ant at a glance. However, he still let the queen ant stay here for 30 years.
If it was just thirty years, it would only be enough for this queen ant to consolidate her recent crazy improvement. It was impossible for her to prove Dao.
In the end, Han Fei glanced at the queen ant casually and said, “By the way, maybe I will embark on this path again in the future. If you can’t make it all the way out, wait for me. We cooperate quite well. What do you think?”
…
Saying goodbye to the middle-aged man and the queen ant, Feng Yu said, “I don’t think you treat these Star Sea Metal-eating Ants as creatures. You’ve been sending them to their deaths. Are you sure they won’t hate you in the future?”
Wushuang nodded. “That’s right! Those who are not our kind are bound to have different thoughts.”
Han Fei laughed. “Which race are we from? We are part of the myriad of races. How do you know that the Star Sea Metal-eating Ants are not part of the myriad of races too?”
After that, Han Fei looked at Feng Yu and said, “The queen ant doesn’t care about the lackeys. Along the way, more than ten million Star Sea Metal-eating Ants have died. Every time one dies, it will feed a trace of its energy back to the queen ant. This is why she needs to recuperate for three hundred years.”
Feng Yu shook her head. “Unfortunately, she doesn’t know the difficulty of proving Dao.”
Wushuang nodded. “According to the races we’ve met, their growth is tower-type. The longer they cultivate and the more energy they absorb, the more they will slowly undergo a metamorphosis. Perhaps in tens of thousands of years, the queen ant will naturally grow and have a chance of proving Dao. However, if she shortened the time to three hundred years, it seems good, but some of her insights will be lost in the process.”
Feng Yu couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Why does this look like an extremely huge Origin Star?”
Wushuang asked, “Why is there such a place in the Shattered Star Sea? Without a Monarch guarding it, this place wouldn’t have existed.”
Han Fei smiled. “You’ll find out when you get there.”
…
This was the first time Han Fei had descended directly from the Sea of Stars to an unknown star.
After Han Fei and the others arrived, they all took a breath. The gravity here was abnormal, the spiritual energy here was rich, and they could even feel the chaotic energy circulating here.
Due to the excessive nourishment of spiritual energy, the mountains and rivers here were lush with vegetation.
There were towering trees that were tens of thousands of feet tall. There were also wild monsters in the mountains, but on a closer look, they were all cultivators. Their strength was at least in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm.
In the lake and sea, there were creatures of all races. Although there weren’t many of them, their strength was at least in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm or even the perfected Star Transformation Realm.
Han Fei and the others flew all the way and saw that there were even Explorers here. They didn’t understand why there were Explorers here.
However, on a closer look, he found that these Explorers only had cultivated for less than ten years.
“Sh*t!”
“Hiss!”
“Huh? Well~”
For a moment, the three of them were dumbfounded. What the h.e.l.l was this?
Gulp!
Han Fei swallowed and said, “Can… can the members of your Phoenix Divine Race reach this level after cultivating for only more than ten years?”
Feng Yu rolled her eyes at Han Fei. “Impossible!”
Wushuang was shocked. “How is this possible? Isn’t this growth too fast?”
Han Fei said, “Although there aren’t many people here, they are all too strong. They can become Explorers in more than ten years. I would believe it if I am told they are all divine beasts.”
Feng Yu said, “That’s not right! Their growth is very abnormal. If they’re really growing so fast, why are there so few of them? Can’t they just nurture these rare geniuses? There are less than a hundred of them in total.”
Han Fei and the others had already crossed tens of millions of kilometers. In total, they had seen no more than a hundred people who could become Explorers or even Venerables in more than ten years. Therefore, apart from being shocked, they suspected that these people had extraordinary bloodlines and were all geniuses among geniuses.
However, at this moment, someone suddenly flew over from afar.
The comer was a female perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator. She said, “I think you’ve misunderstood. They’re just ordinary creatures.”
“How is that possible?”
Han Fei and the others exclaimed in unison, thinking that this person was just here to talk.
However, the woman smiled and said, “This is an experiment. The Lone Star City is trying the method of rapid rise of all races. You think what you see are monsters, but you don’t know that their upper limit of growth is too low. At present, they can only quickly grow to the advanced Venerable realm. It’s almost impossible for them to continue to grow. They might not be able to establish the sea for the rest of their lives.”
