Chapter 1358: Fish Demon
Han Fei was shocked by the old turtle"s words.
Even a G.o.d couldn"t completely disa.s.semble spiritual energy? And the old turtle had already become an emperor by disa.s.sembling 95%?
From what he said, it seemed that the higher the level, the more difficult it was to disa.s.semble spiritual energy. The Insect King could disa.s.semble more than 80% of the spiritual energy, so he stood a chance of becoming king.
In other words, if one wanted to become a king, 85% would be a watershed. And one was sure to become a king if he could disa.s.semble spiritual energy by 90%.
His goal was, of course, the higher the better, although this sounded difficult.
Seeing that Han Fei was stunned, the Insect King thought that Han Fei was thinking about the difficulty. He said, "Actually, you don"t have to worry too much. Most people only study the method of disa.s.sembling spiritual energy in depth when they become peak-level Explorers. You are only at the peak of junior-level now, so there"s no need to rush. At least, your comprehension of disa.s.sembling spiritual energy is much earlier than ordinary people, so you have enough time to disa.s.semble spiritual energy and polish your foundation. Besides, disa.s.sembling spiritual energy is actually not difficult."
Han Fei"s lips twitched slightly. "Not difficult?"
Han Fei thought to himself, I"m afraid you don"t know what people with low talent will think? From what you said, I already feel that it"s extremely difficult.
The old turtle replied, "He didn"t lie about that. It"s indeed not that difficult to disa.s.semble spiritual energy, but it"s not that simple. Besides, establis.h.i.+ng the sea and splitting the sky doesn"t just depend on your understanding of the disa.s.sembling of spiritual energy. Disa.s.sembling spiritual energy is only beneficial to becoming a Venerable or a king. By doing that, you can comprehend deeper levels of power, which is also a way to polish your foundation."
The Insect King also explained, "The disa.s.sembling of spiritual energy is just a means of polis.h.i.+ng one"s foundation. You have to confirm your own Great Dao before you can become a Venerable. Only then can the polis.h.i.+ng of your foundation be meaningful. Further down is the road to becoming a King. That road is the most difficult one."
Han Fei thought to himself, Which stage is simple? Every time I reach a new realm, someone will say that this realm is extremely difficult and important and I shall polish my foundation well.
Now, Han Fei was already used to it.
Han Fei crossed his hands. "Insect King, please teach me how to disa.s.semble spiritual energy."
…
Half a month pa.s.sed.
In a secret realm more than 500,000 kilometers away from the Fiery Sea, Han Fei was sitting cross-legged. A white light flashed in front of him, like a wisp of starlight annihilated.
The Insect King taught Han Fei two ways to disa.s.semble spiritual energy. The first was to nibble it away. In this way, instead of being eaten one grain after another, the spiritual energy was taken as an onion wrapped in countless layers and was peeled layer by layer. As long as one ate through each layer, it represented the improvement of disa.s.sembling progress.
The other was the method of infiltration of Dao runes. It was to infuse spiritual energy with one"s own Great Dao. To judge one"s degree of disa.s.sembling of spiritual energy by the degree of penetration. This method required Han Fei to have a certain understanding of his own Great Dao first. In fact, this method wasn"t suitable for a person like Han Fei who made rapid breakthroughs, but more suitable for a strong master like Yu Wendao who had stayed in the realm of Half-Venerable for a long time.
Now, with his forging and disa.s.sembling technique, Han Fei had three ways to disa.s.semble spiritual energy.
These three methods worked the same.
Han Fei didn"t feel that there was anything missing in the technique of forging and disa.s.sembling… Perhaps it was just the quality of his forging that was not as good as the technique of nibbling.
Of course, they were only the methods of disa.s.sembling spiritual energy.
In addition to teaching Han Fei these methods, the Insect King also taught Han Fei some truth. One was the acc.u.mulation of time. As long as one method worked and one persisted and repeatedly tried it, it would work well in the end.
In addition, the Insect King emphasized on the method of Dao rune infiltration, saying that this method might be slow, but it had the best effect. He believed that although Han Fei had used other methods, once he decided his Great Dao in the future, he could use this method to try to disa.s.semble spiritual energy.
Apart from that, he taught Han Fei some knowledge on the Great Dao, battles, and the use of spiritual energy…
"Huff!"
The Insect King left.
Han Fei tried for half a month in a row and was finally relieved. "It"s indeed difficult. I"ve tried several methods. My own method is similar to the nibbling method. I don"t know how to infiltrate with the Dao runes. In half a month, I can only disa.s.semble 55%. The foundation is really difficult to polish."
The old turtle couldn"t bear it anymore. Look, is this what a human should say?
The old turtle said to Han Fei, "Your Great Dao is already set, but you don"t quite understand it yet. In addition, it"s the first time you tried it as an Explorer, so your disa.s.sembling progress is already very extraordinary. If you can understand your Great Dao more deeply, it shouldn"t be a problem for you to disa.s.semble more than 70% of spiritual energy in the next year or two."
Han Fei curled his lips. Only 70%? That"s not good enough!
The old turtle said angrily, "Seventy percent is enough for you to become a Venerable. What else do you want?"
Han Fei rose quickly. "There"s no rush. Although I haven"t fully cultivated a Golden Body, I should be close. I think I should make a breakthrough now while I still have some resources."
The old turtle raised no objection.
Han Fei"s opportunity this time was really too great. If an ordinary person could obtain this opportunity, his strength would probably be boosted a lot, and it was even possible for him to directly break through to the Half-Venerable realm.
Of course, if it were an ordinary person, he might not have been able to withstand such a huge amount of energy. It was more likely that he would have been blown up by the huge energy.
Han Fei looked down at his fat body and thought to himself, As long as I make a breakthrough, I can restore my perfect figure. Thinking of this, he couldn"t help but grin.
In front of Han Fei, a spiritual spring river appeared.
In Forge the Universe, a tremendous amount of spiritual energy was steaming. It was like a spiritual spring moistening the earth. At this moment, spiritual energy was nouris.h.i.+ng the golden body as if polis.h.i.+ng an exquisite object.
Han Fei was not in a hurry to break through the barrier. This time, he planned to polish his body and make a breakthrough when his foundation was firm.
He polished it for three days and three nights.
Han Fei"s golden body was resplendent, the crack on his forehead had long been repaired, and there was already a golden sheen. It should no longer affect his breakthrough.
"Break!"
With the previous two lessons, Han Fei didn"t dare to act recklessly this time. Relatively speaking, he was much more careful this time.
Spiritual energy rolled around Han Fei and washed over him again and again. His fat body was slowly becoming thinner at a visible speed.
The energy contained in Han Fei"s body was transformed into his marrow, nouris.h.i.+ng his flesh, veins, bones, marrow, etc…
An hour later.
With a click, Han Fei made a breakthrough without encountering any obstacles. He could clearly feel the explosive increase of his strength.
However, Han Fei could also foresee that he still had a long way to go to become a peak-level Explorer.
"Phew ~"
Heaving a long breath, Han Fei didn"t open his eyes but looked at his data.
Owner: Han Fei
Level: 77 (Advanced Explorer)
Spiritual Energy: 220,000 / 220,000
Spiritual Power: 2,8002 / 2,8002
Perception range: 3,800 kilometers
Strength: 858 Waves
First Spiritual Heritage: Unknown
Second Spiritual Heritage: Unawakened
First spiritual beast: Twin Yin-Yang Spirit Swallowing Fish (level-65)
Second spiritual beast: Unawakened
Main Art: Sky Stealing Technique, level six of Void Fis.h.i.+ng (Venerable Level, Divine Quality)
…
Han Fei"s face slightly changed when he saw the data, but he still took it for granted.
In the blood pool, his breakthrough was too rushed and he had no time to polish it. In the end, his body was still filled with a large amount of energy.
This time, he had used up all the energy. In the short term, it would be difficult for his strength to soar again.
Besides, he was already an advanced Explorer, but his soul power hadn"t been replenished yet.
It could be seen that although splitting his soul created an avatar for him, the price was definitely not small. Even if he made consecutive breakthroughs, his perception range was only 200 kilometers higher than before.
It could be seen that the strength of his soul was much weaker than when he was still a junior Explorer.
In terms of strength, because his golden body was almost complete, it had soared by a lot.
But if he wanted it to rise again, he had to continue polis.h.i.+ng his foundation and tempering his body. If his bones had turned golden, but his flesh and blood couldn"t keep up, it would be uncoordinated. This also needed time to stabilize it.
Of course, Han Fei had two urgent things to do at this moment. One was to replenish his soul power; the other was to replenish his lost vitality.
Without the scene of thousands of geniuses s.n.a.t.c.hing treasures in the Thousand Mountain Ancient Realm, it would take some time for him to quickly replenish them.
After all, it was not that the entire sea area was full of peak-level Sea Spirits or Dao Seeking creatures, and it was impossible for him to slaughter powerful sea monsters all at once.
Powerful marine creatures were rare after all.
Places like the White Sh.e.l.l Royal City often brought some talented creatures to the outside of the city for them to fight each other and the most powerful creatures would survive. But if he went there and hunted too many of them, it would inevitably raise suspicion.
Han Fei pondered for a moment. To the west of the Fiery Sea was the Blood Sea Divine Wood City. He couldn"t go there.
However, the Fish Dragon King could.
He could go there even just for the purpose of setting a chess piece. And then he could follow the sea chart given by Queen Life to hunt treasures for two years. During this period, he could polish himself and consolidate his current cultivation.
…
Three months later.
Blood Sea Divine Wood City.
"Master Xue Qin, for some reason, maybe a talented fish demon appeared in the sea recently and specifically hunted great demons at the Dao Seeking realm. These days, more than 30 people have already been killed, but we haven"t even found the figure of that big fish."
Xue Qin frowned. "Although there aren"t very few Dao Seeking realm creatures, there aren"t many. There"s indeed a problem with their continuous deaths in the territory of our Blood Sea Divine Wood City. However, how are you sure that it"s a fish?"
The blood demon said respectfully, "Because of the bite marks. Although that mysterious fish demon hunted and swallowed most of the great demons at the Dao Seeking realm, there are occasionally creatures it doesn"t eat. After taking a closer look, I"m sure that it"s a big fish of about 10 to 15 meters in size. This is my judgment."
Xue Qin nodded slightly. "I know. You can"t even find it. That creature must be at least a legendary one, or even…"
The Blood Demon"s heart skipped a beat as he thought to himself, Is Lord Xue Qin suspecting that it"s a legend creature?
They had seen legendary creatures in the vast sea, but… legend creatures? They had really never seen one.
What the Blood Demon didn"t know was that Xue Qin"s heart stirred. "Could it be… a mysterious creature?"
