Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Xia Fei’s method of breaking through was astonis.h.i.+ng. He relied on his formidable energy control… to unleash spirit energy and then take it back! In the span of a single second, he repeated the action several thousand times!
Thus, the people outside the Garden of G.o.ds were able to witness a fascinating sight. Xia Fei, his body covered in ghostly flames, was abruptly accelerating and decelerating. When he was fast, he was moving at almost 150 million meters per second, and when he was slow, he didn’t even drop below 100 million!
This change in speed was truly incredible, occurring several thousand times a second! It was like someone constantly pus.h.i.+ng the gas pedal down to the bottom and then lifting their foot again, constantly causing the car to constantly lunge forward.
This fantastical performance lasted for a few seconds, and then Xia Fei began to show his true power!
He stopped decelerating, his speed ascending in a straight line! In the blink of an eye, he broke 150 million meters per second, and began to approach 200 million!
!!
His body erupted with flames and crackled with lightning, looking like a phoenix being reborn from flames!
After applying one thousand units of spirit energy to his body, Xia Fei had reached the second level of the Chilled Ligament Ghost Valley! Satisfied, Xia Fei began to slow back down.
Everyone started to come back to their senses. The scene just now had been unbelievable, just like a fantasy movie!
“Such formidable speed. It makes me think of…”
“Think of who?”
“Think of Lord Paletooth! He’s so similar! The same broken wings, and the same supreme speed that no mortal could attain! I really don’t know how Xia Fei managed to do it all, breaking the limits of the limits of the Law of Speed!”
“Yes, I feel like Xia Fei is very similar to Lord Paletooth. I once had a chance to see that venerable lord with my own eyes, and his demeanor was exactly like Xia Fei’s!”
“With Xia Fei around, we might really have a chance at winning! After all, speed is the sharpest weapon, surpa.s.sing all ranks and levels!”
“It’s possible!”
“It’s really possible!”
Xia Fei did not know that his expression of extreme speed had given a huge boost to the morale of the Dragoons!
The Devil Shadow Dragoons regarded the Four Sky Devils as G.o.ds. Xia Fei’s speed and broken wings were extremely similar to Sky Devil Paletooth, so everyone couldn’t help but link the two together.
A warrior with speed comparable to a Sky Devil on their side was excellent news for the Dragoons in their desperate circ.u.mstances!
In the garden, after finis.h.i.+ng his runs, Xia Fei felt refreshed all over! spirit energy not only caused Xia Fei pain, but also triggered momentous transformations. Smiling, Xia Fei went up to Avril and hugged her.
“Did you see it? I just broke my own record!” Xia Fei said excitedly.
Avril’s hands were covered in dirt, so she mischievously dabbed a little yellow dirt on Xia Fei’s nose, softly saying, “Did you see it? My man is the most formidable of all!”
Their flirting had Chu Jingfeng, Little Yu, and Xu Luanbu laughing heartily. Xu Luanbu said, “It seems like you’re born for speed. Tell the truth, did your speed hit 200 million just now?”
Xia Fei replied, “At my absolute limit, I might be able to reach 200 million, but the pressure on my body is too great. I only tried a little.”
Chu Jingfeng nodded. “There’s no rush. Take things slowly. Your current speed must have set a new record. Even the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Soul Familiar might not be able to catch up to you! You’re the undisputed fastest in the universe!”
Chu Jingfeng suddenly remembered something and asked, “Where did Wing, Gale, Sea, and Calamity run off to?”
Xia Fei replied, “Those four have strange personalities and said that staying here was awkward, so they went out for a walk. I didn’t stop them. You saw how Nalan Wufa looked at the four Soul Familiars. There was clearly anger in his eyes. If they’re together, they might actually start fighting.”
Chu Jingfeng sighed. “That’s true. The four Soul Familiars are arrogant and unruly, and the Fiend Race has its own pride. While you can’t say that the two of them get along like water and fire, they’re both still very temperamental.”
Xia Fei said, “There’s no way to resolve these old and new grudges. We can only hope that they’ll keep the overall situation in mind and not cause any trouble at this critical moment.”
Chu Jingfeng said, “Since we’re on the subject of the four Soul Familiars, how do you plan to deal with them? After all, you don’t have the Medicinal Cauldron Prince’s Iron Book.”
Xia Fei shrugged. “I’ll think about it as I go along. I don’t have the Iron Book, but I do have the Jade Dragon Frost! No matter what, we have to tie the four Soul Familiars to our side. They are powerful in battle, and there are plenty of places that they could be useful at.
“Right, how is the Jade Dragon Frost doing?”
Chu Jingfeng waved his hand and led Xia Fei to the garden where the Jade Dragon Frost had been planted. “Look. Ever since we got here, the Jade Dragon Frost has been growing much more quickly, and its resistance is getting stronger. I estimate that it will be ten days to half a month at most until the first batch of Jade Dragon Frost bears fruit.”
Xia Fei was stunned. The Jade Dragon Frost bearing fruit was far too important to him. The mystical plant left behind by the Four Sky Devils had to have unusual properties. If it was a treasure that could increase his rank, it might be able to give a huge boost to the Dragoons!
“How did this sort of thing happen!?” Xia Fei asked in surprise.
Chu Jingfeng replied, “The environment, the change in environment is the reason! The Jade Dragon Frost was a mystical plant that was completely unsuited for the previous environment, which was why the Sky Devils weren’t able to make the Jade Dragon Frost bear fruit despite their many years of effort.
“But after many epochs, the Jade Dragon Frost has changed! It was able to adapt to the environment, and there’s no reversing this change! Back in the eighth universe, I noticed that the Jade Dragon Frost was absorbing the energy of the Yggdragons. Here, it’s begun to absorb the power of the Seven Star Steles!” Xia Fei looked up at the seven stone steles in wonder. These steles weren’t just mysterious, but also packed with some sort of frenzied energy! That power protected the steles from the erosion of time, ensuring that they weren’t destroyed.
As Xia Fei was thinking, Chu Jingfeng smiled mysteriously. “Actually, the biggest change did not occur to the Jade Dragon Frost, but to that weird cactus! Come with me.”
Chu Jingfeng led Xia Fei to the garden where the cactus had been planted. This cactus that Ye Zhiqiu had gotten from who knows where had absorbed a Jade Dragon Frost and had become the most mystical existence in G.o.d’s Eden.
The cactus had already grown to a large size, standing over ten meters tall, and its tiny little pearl-flowers covered it like stars.
“It’s already this tall?” Xia Fei hadn’t paid much attention to it these last two days, so its growth spurt left him amazed.
“This thing really isn’t simple. Putting aside its absurd life force, it even absorbed a Jade Dragon Frost, taking in those special genes to crazily mutate!”
“Look here!” Chu Jingfeng pointed at a bulging part of the cactus. “A fruit is forming here. I estimate that it won’t need three days for this fruit to ripen.”
“Heavens!” Xia Fei was stunned. He had never imagined that it would be this cactus that would come out ahead of the other plants of the G.o.d’s Eden to deliver him a surprise.
“I can’t wait to see what sort of fruit this unknown plant can produce!” Chu Jingfeng muttered, a sense of achievement in his voice.
After some thought, Xia Fei asked, “Did you tell anyone else about this?”
Chu Jingfeng replied smoothly, “Relax, only the two of us know. This cactus is yours, so the fruit will naturally be yours, as well. But I’m getting ahead of myself. While this cactus has borne fruit, there’s no telling what type of fruit it is. We have to investigate it first. Don’t go eating it as soon it ripens. That could easily cause problems.”
Xia Fei nodded, noting that he wasn’t in the habit of randomly eating things.
At that moment, Ding Hai suddenly arrived at the G.o.d’s Eden with a group. The monkish Ding Hai was full of praise for Xia Fei breaking the limits of his speed.
Changing the subject, Ding Hai said, “Our forward scouts have sent back word that Wing, Gale, Sea, and Calamity have run off to a nearby dragon base! The dragons don’t know that we have reinforcements, so it would be bad if we alarmed them.”
Xia Fei was startled. He said grimly, “I understand. I was the one who brought them, so I’ll naturally take responsibility for them. Can you have someone show me the way? I’ll call them back.”
Ding Hai pulled over a man with a scar on his face. “This is Mu Feng, the deputy squad leader of the reconnaissance team. Have him show you the way. And remember, be careful.”
The Devil Shadow Dragoons couldn’t deal with the four Soul Familiars, so Ding Hai had no choice but to have Xia Fei to bring back the four disobedient fellows.
Ding Hai returned to the Dragoon base. Xia Fei asked, “Senior, where is the dragon base? Is it far? And how do we get there?”
Mu Feng was a very stern fellow, saying, “Elder Ding Hai was not talking about the main base of the dragons, but an outpost they set up to keep an eye on us. It’s not that far, but we need to rely on a special lifeform. In a little while, listen to my orders and don’t make any reckless moves, and I will send you over safely.”
Xia Fei nodded. Mu Feng placed two fingers into his mouth and whistled.
A moment later, a dark figure streaked out of the darkness: a Night Owl! A draconid scout!
Xia Fei pulled out his Nirvana Fiend Blade from his spatial ring, but Mu Feng stopped him.
This wicked beast obediently went up to Mu Feng. It seemed to listen to his orders.
“I dug out its eyes and sealed its mouth so that it can’t resist. If we carelessly get close to the dragons, our scent alone will give us away. That’s why we have to ride a Night Owl,” Mu Feng explained.
Xia Fei took a look and found that this black draconic being really did have its eyes and mouth sealed. This was truly an excellent application of using the enemy’s tools against them! The Dragoons were using the draconid scouts as their mounts!
Xia Fei and Mu Feng mounted the back of the Night Owl, and the beast took off into the stars and began to accelerate!
Whoos.h.!.+ Their surroundings suddenly fell silent as the Night Owl entered a warp state!
“This thing can warp like a wars.h.i.+p!?” Xia Fei curiously asked. “Is it fitted with a warp engine!?”
Mu Feng casually replied, “Why do you think the dragons are called the strongest of the wicked beasts? No matter how far away you are, you can’t stop them. Some dragons can travel faster than even the fastest wars.h.i.+ps.”
Xia Fei was stunned. The universe was very large, and if one did not have some means of traveling at high speed, a dragon might fly for eons and cover only a little distance!
With biological bodies, they were able to fold s.p.a.ce and warp! These draconids were truly frightening!
This was only the Night Owl! There was no telling what sort of frightening movement ability a real Megadragon had!
The Night Owl exited its warp state, traveling at tens of millions of meters per second as it brought Xia Fei and Mu Feng close to the dragon outpost.
