Chapter 1514: Return to the Level-Three Fishery
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After harvesting a wave of power of faith, Han Fei spent another half a month in Forge the Universe to push his strength to the peak of a junior Venerable.
Of course, this so-called peak was not Han Fei’s theoretical limit, but the limit that the power of faith could push to.
Since it was for the growth of strength, Han Fei didn’t care how to improve it in the realm of junior Venerable… The only thing he needed to consider was how to polish his foundation and dig out his potential in the realm of junior Venerable.
After his strength was raised to the peak of a junior Venerable, Han Fei began to disa.s.semble spiritual energy crazily with the power of will.
However, the difficulty of disa.s.sembling spiritual energy far exceeded Han Fei’s expectations.
In Forge the Universe, the power of faith was used up after only a month, and the disa.s.sembling degree of spiritual energy only went from 72% to 75%.
Han Fei was speechless. “Old Yuan, is it so difficult to disa.s.semble the spiritual energy?”
The old turtle was speechless too. “Do you think it’s slow? You have to know that it usually takes more than a hundred years of cultivation to reach the peak of the junior Venerable. And disa.s.sembling spiritual energy might take ten years for one percent of progress. How many days have it been? You’ve improved by three percent. Do you think it’s slow?”
Han Fei: “…”
Han Fei thought to himself, I want to go straight to 100%!
After trying it out, Han Fei found that the efficiency of his usage of spiritual energy was about one point eight times or one point nine times.
Compared to before, it had indeed improved a lot.
This did mean that the more spiritual energy was disa.s.sembled, the stronger his final strength would be. After all, only spiritual energy was inexhaustible.
In the following days, the collection of the power of faith slowed down, and people’s admiration for Han Fei began to subside over time.
Han Fei could do nothing about it. He couldn’t expect his soldiers to shout every day on the Scattered Stars Island. “Marshal Han is awesome!”
Fortunately, his strength seemed to be temporarily stuck and needed time to polish. No matter how much power of faith he had, it could only be used to increase the degree of spiritual energy disa.s.sembling.
The hunting lasted for three days.
As for Han Fei, he had been fis.h.i.+ng in the Empyrean Waterfall for three days. Except for occasionally slipping on the sea surface, he had almost never left.
In the past few days, he had been thinking about a question: should he go to the Wall of Death to take a look?
Once he had this idea, he couldn’t stop thinking about it. Curiosity killed the cat. Now, Han Fei was more or less that cat.
Now, there was no threat of sea demons on the Scattered Stars Island anymore. Therefore, Han Fei asked Xue Shenqi to temporarily act as the deputy commander.
Xue Shenqi’s answer was that there could only be one commander in the City of Justice. Since Han Fei was not dead, this was his way to become a king.
After the exchange, Han Fei knew that once Xue Shenqi regained control of the City of Justice and he was absent for a long time, it wouldn’t be a good thing for his rule.
Han Fei pondered for a long time. He really wanted to create a clone to help him guard the Scattered Stars Island!
Unfortunately, his clone was still in the Demon Subduing Tower. He didn’t know how his clone was doing.
He was too far away to perceive his clone.
Hesitating, Han Fei had been fis.h.i.+ng for three days.
Of course, what he was fis.h.i.+ng for was not the fish but an answer!
In the end, Han Fei still felt that he couldn’t give up the position of commander!
He could postpone the plan for the Wall of Death for a while. It seemed that he had other things to do besides going to the Wall of Death.
A relatively simpler thing for him to do was probably the two undone things in the level-three fishery.
As for the level-three fishery, what had been on Han Fei’s mind up to this day was the weird secret realm in the Abyssal Chasm, and the puppet monster suppressed under the Steps into the Sea.
Swis.h.!.+
Han Fei’s fis.h.i.+ng hook was retracted from thousands of kilometers away, with a Yellow-Blooded Sea Cuc.u.mber hanging on it.
Because Han Fei had been thinking about something, he didn’t ask Big Yellow to fish with him.
At this moment, Han Fei retracted the fis.h.i.+ng rod, and Big Yellow meowed.
Han Fei casually threw the Yellow-Blooded Sea Cuc.u.mber to him and said, “You can fish by yourself. I have something to do.”
Han Fei stepped into the Marshal’s Mansion and released Turtle Sanqing from the Sea Quelling Painting.
Han Fei said, “Old Yuan, when I’m not here, you’ll have to disguise yourself as me and guard the Scattered Stars Island for me for the time being.”
The old turtle said leisurely, “Will it take you long?”
Han Fei shook his head. “I’m not sure. It may take a long time. As an Emperor, you should have a way to achieve the connection between the clone and the main body, right?”
The old turtle said, “If it’s just in this sea area, I can do it. However, if you leave this sea area, even I don’t have the ability.”
Han Fei wanted the Star Turtle to disguise as him, but the Star Turtle had already run away. G.o.d knew where he was.
After all, Venerables were Venerables and wouldn’t be controlled by others.
Han Fei couldn’t find him, so there was nothing he could do!
Han Fei said, “Old Yuan, why don’t we sign a master-servant contract now?”
“Hiss…”
The old turtle was suddenly furious. “That’s impossible! I’m an emperor, and you’re only a Venerable! You want to sign a master-servant contract with me? Don’t even think about it.”
Han Fei couldn’t help but laugh. “Old Yuan, you should know that! Knowing so many secrets of mine, I can’t let you leave. If you have to keep following me, what’s the difference between signing the master and servant contract early or late?”
The old turtle’s eyes were bloodshot. Although he had foreseen that the two would start a fight on this topic, he felt that it must be after Han Fei became a king.
When Han Fei became a king…
He could give in a little bit. Then he wouldn’t lose face as an emperor!
After all, Han Fei had the potential.
However, Han Fei was only a Venerable now. How could he lower his n.o.ble head now?
The old turtle thought of something. “It’s possible for me to sign the contract… I know that you have extraordinary luck. Why don’t we sign an equal contract and support each other in the future?”
Han Fei pretended to hesitate and then said leisurely, “Well, let’s go back and ask Old Han for his opinion! He should have lived long enough to know the difference between different contracts.”
“No, wait a moment…”
The old turtle was immediately anxious. Old Han? Your father? There’s no simple person in your family. If you ask your father this, he’ll definitely drag out my soul and chop it…
The old turtle hurriedly said, “Well, it’s just my suggestion. You don’t have to tell your father for the time being. In fact, there are many kinds of contracts in this world. Why do you insist on a master-servant contract?”
Immediately, the old turtle threw out a contract. He said, “Han Fei, in fact, before the Age of G.o.ds, there was another contract, called the life contract. If you want, I can accept it.”
Han Fei raised his eyebrows. “What’s a life contract?”
The old turtle explained, “Those who sign the contract will be together for life, die together and never abandon each other. This kind of contract is also known as a soul contract, which uses the souls of the contractors as the carrier. Once you break it, your soul will be destroyed.”
Hearing this, Han Fei immediately trembled. “Go away. A life contract? Tsk, only my wife can receive such treatment. You, you… how old are you? Sign a life contract with me? No way!”
The old turtle: “…”
Han Fei snorted. “Forget it. Let’s talk about it later. However, Old Yuan, if I really become a king one day, there may be many creatures who want to recognize me as their master. Think about it. My contractual spiritual beasts are at least legend creatures. In the future, if I have a chance to become a king, will I be weaker than you?”
Of course, Han Fei didn’t expect the old turtle to surrender today. However, it was necessary to threaten him a bit.
…
Three days pa.s.sed.
Han Fei didn’t return via the teleportation array, but directly crossed the vast sea.
Along the way, Han Fei found many secret realms.
However, Han Fei didn’t explore it because he knew that such an ordinary secret realm was meaningless to him.
Even if these secret realms were filled with spiritual springs, Spirit Awakening Fluid, and the like, it was useless.
Of course, in some secret realms, there might also be Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasures. However, they must be extremely rare. Now he even had a Human Sacred Weapon, so he might not be interested in Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasures!
When Han Fei traveled more than 2.4 million kilometers, he saw a fis.h.i.+ng boat above the vast sea, on which there was an old man.
After seeing Han Fei, the old man nodded at Han Fei. “The supreme commander of the Scattered Stars Island, Han Fei?”
Han Fei smiled.
Sure enough, there were more Venerables in this world.
In the level-three fishery, there were actually Venerables. These Venerables might not care about worldly affairs, but they would never allow sea demons to barge in.
Han Fei smiled. “Senior, you are?”
The old man shrugged. “I’m just a n.o.body. You don’t have to know my name, Marshal Han. Marshal Han, are you going to the level-three fishery?”
Han Fei nodded. “Yes! I have something to tend to over there.”
The old man nodded slightly. “Do as you please, Marshal Han.”
He didn’t ask why Han Fei was going there, but Han Fei felt that this old man should already know his purpose.
However, this made Han Fei somewhat puzzled. In that Abyssal Chasm, had the two secret realms he hadn’t explored been explored by others?
After all, which Venerable didn’t want to become a king? Didn’t this old man know the two secret realms?
The secrets in the Abyssal Chasm might be a secret for others, but for these Venerables, was it also a secret?
Very soon, without the guidance of the Vast Ocean Navigator, Han Fei quietly came to the Abyssal Chasm and entered the strange place.
Taking this road again, Han Fei wanted to see if he could make it without the ferryman.
However, Han Fei discovered, to his surprise, that even though he was a Venerable, his energy was slowly dissipating, and he still couldn’t tell the direction…
In the end, Han Fei followed the ferryman to the ghost s.h.i.+p.
Around him, small blue fish were still swimming.
On the ghost s.h.i.+p, there were new intruders.
Han Fei hesitated and didn’t board the boat. Instead, he fumbled with the Time Ring on his finger and asked casually, “Where is Xiao Se?”
