Chapter 702: Demon Essence
Yu Bei went crazy. He could resist the mist and the Infinity Water, but it was impossible for him to resist the invisible poisonous smoke.
Although the divine battle suit that he was wearing blocked the blades of Infinity Water, he still felt that his internal organs were roiling and his stomach was exploding…
Standing on the stairs to the altar, Han Fei only took one step up.
He vividly remembered what happened back in the Steps into the Sea, so Han Fei was extremely cautious at this moment.
He was even ready to expose the Overlord.
Yet, surprisingly enough, nothing happened.
Han Fei created a Coiled Turtle Array and a Six Spirit Armor, and kept an eye on Yu Bei with the octopus eye on his back. I won’t use the Infinity Water anymore. Be prepared for some serious vomiting and diarrhea.
Meng Guiyi said telepathically, Be careful.
Tang Ge added, Watch out.
Han Fei waved his hand and climbed to the altar after only several steps.
There was an array on the floor. Han Fei didn’t walk into it as he couldn’t understand it. He simply looked up from outside.
The dress of the enormous human illusion was fluttering. Han Fei couldn’t help but wonder what he would see from under her legs.
He was not sure if the master of the Snow G.o.d’s Temple had the habit of wearing leggings.
However, when Han Fei looked at the woman illusion in the eyes, he discovered, to his surprise, that she was staring back at him.
“Shoot!”
Han Fei subconsciously stepped back, as he really had no good feelings for the people from the Snow G.o.d’s Temple.
“Not good.”
In the next second, Han Fei could not move anymore as if he were frozen.
A weird aroma, which seemed to be originating from somewhere near him, found its way into his nose.
Han Fei couldn’t move his head, but with Little Fatty’s vision, he found that some blue long hair was dangling from his shoulder.
Creak! Creak! Creak!
Han Fei took a deep breath and struggled to turn his eyes, only to see a most delicate face that was smiling at himself, and its chin was against his shoulder.
The aroma came from the woman’s body, or maybe her hair.
Suddenly, Han Fei felt more or less tightened. He lowered his head, only to see a pair of jade-like hands that surrounded his waist and laid on his hip.
“Gudu!”
Han Fei swallowed. He felt that he was almost shedding tears. What is this all about?
Han Fei managed to open his mouth and mutter, “Hi…”
In Han Fei’s eyesight, Yu Bei was still struggling in the Infinity Water, Tang Ge was still charging, and Gong Yuehan was already floating close by.
Han Fei dare not move at all. How did a woman appear behind me? Why did n.o.body show any reaction?
Where is this woman from? How did she appear behind me without a sound?
More importantly, the woman stuck her chin to my shoulder, but why did I not sense her sooner?
“Wait!”
Han Fei suddenly s.h.i.+vered. It didn’t make sense! If someone was really on his back, then Little Fatty’s vision should’ve been blocked! Why could he still see everything around him clearly?
Han Fei took a deep breath. “Who are you?”
The woman didn’t say anything, and Han Fei didn’t have the courage to ask further. He simply felt that the woman’s hands and face were as cold as ice.
A long time pa.s.sed.
A vague voice suddenly echoed next to Han Fei’s ears, “You are a human being, but why do you carry demonic Qi?”
Han Fei gasped hard. “Would you believe me if I say that a Half-Mermaid filled demonic Qi into me when I killed her?”
The voice that sounded as if from the void heaved a sigh next to Han Fei’s ears. “Such a strong body, such a heavy soul, and the vibe of Snowmourne… You’ve met that woman?”
Han Fei was frightened. “I have. Isn’t she a sea demon?”
Han Fei sensed that the arms that embraced him were moving up from his abdomen to his stomach and his chest…
Han Fei swallowed hard. “The Snow G.o.d’s Temple has been sunken for too long. You should feel happy that human beings have risen again after the Age of Doom.”
The voice came again distantly as if from another time and s.p.a.ce, “But I’m already dead!”
“Hiss!”
Han Fei felt that ten thousand Iron-Head Fish were raging in his heart. Who am I talking to if you’re dead?
Maybe your physical body died, but your soul is still here, isn’t it?
Han Fei hadn’t figured out what he should say yet, when the woman already laid her cold hands on his face.
The low voice continued unpredictably, “Huh? It’s not demonic Qi that you carry… I understand it now. You’re from that place.”
Han Fei was lost for words. “Sister, I’m just an ordinary person. I can’t be carrying any demonic Qi!”
“Giggle… Poor kid, you must’ve suffered a lot.”
Han Fei: “???”
Han Fei was lost for words. “Miss, are you talking to me?”
Han Fei sensed that the hands on his face moved away, and the aroma from his side was dispersing.
A voice came from the wind, or maybe the void, “Fine. I didn’t expect to fall in your hands in the end! I don’t know if it’s bliss or a curse…”
Han Fei asked quickly, “Wait, miss, what are you talking about? I don’t follow! Can you explain yourself before you go?”
The voice chuckled. “Remember, take one step at a time on this road… Don’t forget to come to me. My name is Bingxue Chuling…”
Han Fei was lost for words. “Wait, on what road should I take one step at a time? How can I find you if you’re dead? h.e.l.lo, are you still there? Is the signal turning so bad? h.e.l.lo…”
Han Fei opened his mouth, and a white pearl just emerged out of nowhere and suddenly flew into his mouth.
Then, the pearl entered his throat from his mouth, dispersed into a stream of air, and drifted all the way to his Dantian.
Han Fei felt that his blood was freezing. What was that? And it just entered my body on its own?
“I’m screwed! I’m really screwed! I should’ve been more prepared to explore a place as weird as the altar!”
There was already a seed, a worm, and a white pearl that were inside his Dantian.
The Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect was holding the seed, and the white pearl was slowly spinning around the seed.
Han Fei s.h.i.+vered hard, as if some restraints had just been removed from his body.
He quickly turned around, only to see nothing.
At this moment, Tang Ge glanced at Han Fei. “Is it dangerous up there?”
Han Fei looked at Tang Ge in a stunned state. Wait, Tang Ge was there when the woman came, but how is he still there after the woman chatted with me for such a long time?
Han Fei quickly cast his fis.h.i.+ng hook at Tang Ge.
Tang Ge grabbed the hook with one hand and landed right on the altar.
Yu Bei, on the other hand, was lying on the ground and vomiting crazily. His gastrointestinal system seemed to have been ruined.
Han Fei didn’t recall the Infinity Water, as Yu Bei surely had an Immortal Seal. He had to kill the guy again after the seal was triggered in order to fully end his life.
Also, the second kill might trigger the Dying Strike in his body, which might be tricky to deal with! He would rather not deal with it again, so he might as well kill the guy from afar!
Tang Ge was stunned after he landed on the altar. “Why is there nothing here?”
Han Fei scratched his head. How should I tell you? Can I say that I was just touched by a woman?
Han Fei asked, “Did you see anything?”
Tang Ge shook his head. “No! Haven’t you been standing here alone all the time?”
“Huh!”
Han Fei secretly swallowed. It was true that Tang Ge and the others didn’t see the woman.
Bingxue Chuling? Where can I possibly find her?
Han Fei couldn’t help but shake his head. He could think about that later. The priority at this moment was to kill Yu Bei.
Gong Yuehan had already flown close. She said after she landed, “Those statues are weakening. I wonder why…”
Han Fei immediately said, “Because they’re out of spiritual energy! This place is short of spiritual energy in the first place. It would be strange if so many statues could fight all the time under the control of such an enormous array.”
Gong Yuehan didn’t know much about arrays, but actually, even Meng Guiyi was thinking the same.
However, it was merely Han Fei’s excuse. After all, in his opinion, the real reason that the array was declining was that the treasure was gone.
A moment later, everybody gathered around.
Ye Xiangxiang was lost for words. “Why is there nothing here? I thought there would be treasures on the altar.”
Su Hongye’s eyes sunk. “So, we’ve taken such a long journey and run into so many dangerous, yet we haven’t found any treasures?”
Meng Guiyi said, “I’m sure the Soul Splitting Technique is available, but it’s impossible for us to obtain it from the old monsters.”
Chen Aochen added, “I, for one, have got something.”
Everybody looked at him.
Chen Aochen said, “I greatly enjoyed myself in the battle, and I feel that I’ve grown a lot. If I train myself in seclusion after we come back, I think I can achieve a breakthrough.”
“Uhh!”
Everybody was lost for words. They had thought that he found something really valuable.
Ning Dong scoffed. “This is boring. This wretched place is not worth the death of eleven people.”
Han Fei quickly interrupted him, “Let’s kill this Half-Mermaid first! He’s dying, and his Immortal Seal will probably be used soon. After we kill him again, there should be a chance for us to get out.”
Tang Ge was briefly stunned. “The Immortal Seal? Not good! Run!”
After that, Tang Ge dragged Han Fei and straightly broke out.
“Why?”
Everybody ran after them, but they didn’t really know why they were running.
Tang Ge roared, “This guy has already been killed by me once before. His Immortal Seal was already used.”
“Huh!”
Exactly at this moment, the most magnificent force swept at them.
