Chapter 2428: Meeting Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The acquaintance of Nezha and Zhang Xuanyu wouldn’t attract the special attention of some people.
At most, people in the City of Scavengers and the City of Origin would pay attention. However, everyone had wandered in the wilderness for decades, so it was normal for them to make a few friends.
In the dark, next to Zhang Daqian, Li Shenhao secretly exclaimed, “How does Nezha know such a strong master? Zhang Xuanyu is one of the top ten thousand strong masters on our Sea Establishment Roll!”
Pan Ying said, “So what? He is only a peak-level Sea Establisher. How strong can he be? It’s hard to say which ranking he can get in the end.”
Bai Ranran said, “Don’t underestimate this person. I once met him in the wilderness. This person’s spear technique is astonis.h.i.+ng. He might even be stronger than Nezha.”
!!
Slap!
Li Shenhao immediately slapped his thigh. “No wonder. They’re both spear Dao geniuses. It’s not surprising that they know each other. But I think it’s best not to provoke him. It’s said that Zhang Xuanyu kills people like flies, and on the battlefield of the Sea Establishment realm, deaths are allowed. So, it’s best not to provoke him.”
The two left the field in advance, so they didn’t attract much attention.
This arena would continue for a long time. The second round was not over yet. There would be a third round, a fourth round… and even a tenth round.
Although there were fewer and fewer partic.i.p.ants left, the people fighting the arena were getting stronger and stronger, so the fighting time would be uncertain.
In a certain restaurant, Han Fei and Zhang Xuanyu sat opposite each other and randomly ordered some local spiritual fruits.
Han Fei said, “Why are you so flamboyant even in the Sea Realm? What do you want?”
Zhang Xuanyu grinned. “That’s not my purpose. I approached Feng Qingcheng because I wanted to find you.”
Han Fei sneered. “Really? Since the compet.i.tion is not over yet, isn’t it only a matter of time before we meet again.”
Zhang Xuanyu curled his lips. “Heh! You’re very famous now. Once you’re hunted down, you might not be able to escape in time. Hey, not that I want to say this, but you’re too audacious. You’re in an unfamiliar place and don’t even know anyone here. How dare you make so many enemies?”
Han Fei chuckled. “Okay, I have my reasons. I haven’t finished my business yet. After this hundred-thousand-year compet.i.tion, I will disappear for a long time.”
Zhang Xuanyu’s heart stirred. “Are you going back to the Chaotic Wasteland?”
Han Fei said, “Yes. The human race must be saved, and the people of the Raging Sea must enter the Sea Realm.”
Zhang Xuanyu frowned. “To be honest, the Sea Realm is very dangerous. When we came out together, seven or eight of us had already died before we were separated.”
Han Fei raised his eyebrows and asked, “What happened after you left? Where are the two of them?”
Han Fei was not interested in others. He only cared about Zhang Xuanyu, Luo Xiaobai, and Le Renkuang. Now that he had met Zhang Xuanyu again, he naturally wanted to ask about Luo Xiaobai and Le Renkuang.
Zhang Xuanyu said, “After we left the Chaotic Wasteland according to the sea chart, we realized that this world was extremely vast. Later, three years after we left the Chaotic Wasteland, a few Emperors led us. But our paths were different, so later, we separated. You know, I would definitely be with Le Renkuang and Luo Xiaobai! The three of us spent a hundred years wandering in the wilderness and finally reached the peak of the Sea Establishment Realm. Later, we separated because we were each looking for our own path to open the sky.”
Han Fei frowned slightly. “You just separated? You don’t know where they are?”
Zhang Xuanyu nodded. “How long did it take you to open the sky? Didn’t you secretly leave for hundreds of years?”
Han Fei thought that it made sense, but then he said, “That’s not right! At that time, we were in the Raging Sea. All the insights there could only be found by myself, so I spent more than two hundred years comprehending the Dao. But since you have come to the Sea Realm, you might be able to obtain a lot of knowledge from any random Wilderness Camp, right? You reached the peak of Sea Establishment a hundred years ago. Why are you still at the peak of the Sea Establishment Realm now?”
Zhang Xuanyu nodded and said, “There are indeed too many shortcuts here, and there are too many insights into the Sky Opening Realm. However, Luo Xiaobai said that we improved too quickly before and told us not to be in a hurry to open the sky. Otherwise, we can only become ordinary geniuses in the Sea Realm. Therefore, unless we have no choice, or our bodies can’t bear the limits of our strength, we shouldn’t rush to open the sky. Therefore, until now, I have been squeezing out my potential. As for the Dao of Sky Opening, I have long comprehended it.”
Hearing Zhang Xuanyu’s words, Han Fei realized that only they had walked out of the Raging Sea.
They were all ambitious, or they wouldn’t have been able to come out of the Raging Sea. Naturally, they wouldn’t be willing to be reduced to an ordinary Heavenly Talent in the Sea Realm.
Therefore, Zhang Xuanyu had been stuck at the peak of the Sea Establishment Realm for more than three hundred years, and his current strength was probably extraordinary.
Han Fei asked, “Then you never contacted each other again?”
Zhang Xuanyu nodded. “Yes! We agreed that if we didn’t meet in a thousand years, we would go to the Sky Crater World.”
“The Sky Crater World?”
Han Fei couldn’t help but frown. “That’s the world battlefield where there are battles every day. Why did you agree to meet there?”
Zhang Xuanyu sneered. “We have to become stronger! We can’t promise to meet in the Divine Capital Dynasty a thousand years from now, right? If someone comes late and someone comes early, wouldn’t the time be wasted? But the Sky Crater World is different. Have you forgotten what we are best at? Fighting! We have already started fighting as early as when we are on the Scattered Stars Island. Whoever arrives first will fight first. When the others arrive, there might already be someone that has conquered a big territory. At that time, we’ll have connections to use.”
A thousand years was neither long nor short. With the strength of Zhang Xuanyu and Luo Xiaobai, they probably couldn’t suppress their strength for long.
If nothing unexpected happened, with Zhang Xuanyu’s current physique and soul strength, he would probably be about to open the sky as soon as the compet.i.tion ended.
Of course, in the past four hundred years, they must have had a lot of hards.h.i.+p. The acc.u.mulation of resources alone couldn’t have nurtured Zhang Xuanyu’s ferocity so well.
Han Fei said, “Perhaps they are also hiding among the partic.i.p.ants.”
Zhang Xuanyu shook his head slightly. “I guess not. First of all, they definitely won’t partic.i.p.ate in the Sky Opening Realm compet.i.tion, because they can’t grow so fast. And in the Sea Establishment Realm compet.i.tion, I have experienced four rounds of qualifiers and two arena matches outside. I specially revealed the Instant Mystic Spear, but I didn’t get any responses, so I guess they aren’t here.”
With that said, Zhang Xuanyu said in surprise, “Hey! How did you see through me at a glance? Are my disguises useless in front of Sky Openers?”
Han Fei smiled and said, “Is it difficult to see through you? Why do you have to put on such a flashy face? Also, your glib tricks and the special features of using a spear, plus the fact that you’re in contact with Feng Qingcheng, it would be hard for me not to notice you.”
“Haha! Is it so obvious?”
Zhang Xuanyu laughed. “What about you? I heard that not only did you become an enemy of the Heavenly Race, but you also fought Zhao Qinglong head-on? Did you lose?”
In Zhang Xuanyu’s heart, Han Fei had always been a freak who was monstrously strong. He was not surprised at all that Han Fei had beaten the entire Dragon Fighting Street.
Zhang Xuanyu didn’t think it strange that Han Fei made an enemy of the Heavenly Race. When Han Fei challenged the Thousand Star City back then, he didn’t flinch at all.
However, Zhang Xuanyu was still very surprised that Han Fei challenged Zhao Qinglong. They had lived in the wilderness for so long and had heard a lot of news. They had heard about the experts on the G.o.d Roll.
Three hundred years ago, the news that Zhao Qinglong got listed on the G.o.d Roll spread throughout the four divine realms. Hearing that Han Fei challenged Zhao Qinglong, even Zhang Xuanyu was worried that Han Fei had made too many enemies.
Han Fei chuckled and said, “When there are too many debts, one stops worrying about them. Now I’ve killed a large number of descendants of the big clans in the Divine Capital Dynasty, so I can’t meet you with my original body.”
The corners of Zhang Xuanyu’s mouth twitched. “Can you leave after the compet.i.tion ends?”
Han Fei grinned and said, “Don’t worry. Since I dare to fight, I’m confident that I can leave.”
“Crunch!”
The two chatted about their experiences in the wilderness while eating spiritual fruits. Zhang Xuanyu had broken into some primitive graveyards with some people in the wilderness, but there weren’t many of them, so Zhang Xuanyu only obtained three World Origin Fruits.
However, this guy had tapped a lot of his potential. This time, he hoped to obtain a large number of World Origin Fruits and prove Dao.
It was a pity that the World Origin Fruit couldn’t be preserved. Otherwise, Han Fei could give some to Zhang Xuanyu.
After sitting for a while, Zhang Xuanyu said, “When will you prove Dao?”
Han Fei was lost for words. “Do you think it’s easy to prove Dao? You make it sound so easy!”
Zhang Xuanyu said, “Who knows about you! Since you can kill a cultivator in the perfected Star Transformation Realm now, I’m afraid that few people below the Monarch Realm are your match, right?”
“But I’m still far from the Monarch level.”
Zhang Xuanyu nodded slightly. Although Han Fei was very strong now, what he wanted to do was not simple at all. Anyway, he could open the sky after this ten-thousand-year compet.i.tion, but it was hard to say when Han Fei could conquer the Chaotic Wasteland.
Zhang Xuanyu nodded. “Okay! We can’t help you now. When the thousand-year period is up, we’ll go to the Sky Crater World to improve our strength first. We’ll come to you when we reach the star transformation realm…”
Han Fei shook his head. “No, reaching the star transformation realm is not enough. My suggestion is that you find a way to enter one of the major factions in the Eastern Sea Divine Realm in this compet.i.tion. In addition, I think with Xiaobai’s personality, if she knows that there will be a ten-thousand-year compet.i.tion, she shouldn’t be absent unless she is tied down. As for Le Renkuang, it’s hard to say. His Dao seems to make no difference whether he partic.i.p.ates in the ten-thousand-year compet.i.tion or not.”
Zhang Xuanyu said, “Haha! You’re right about that. Since we entered the Sea Realm, Le Renkuang has been the fastest to cultivate among the three of us. He reached the peak of the Sea Establishment Realm almost 50 years earlier than us. No, I have a headache when he’s mentioned. It’s too much that he can become stronger by eating! I have to go back to watch the battle. I have to say that there are too many strong masters. There are too many things I can learn from watching the battles.”
