“Just a bit more, I need…”
Ye Fei Li licked his lips, opened his hands and swung it upwards.
Boom!
A 3-meter thick pillar of blood-colored light rose to the sky where the fat Man Killer Fiend was standing.
The fat Man Killer Fiend was trapped inside like a fish in a cylindrical tank of blood.
It tried to struggle, roaring while pounding the outer blood wall, but to no avail.
In a few breaths, the blood tank disappeared.
The fat Man Killer Fiend had already been dissolved all the way through, only leaving a ball of blood-colored light floating in the air.
Ye Fei Li only needed to breath in slightly for the red ball to fly straight into his mouth.
He then let out a scream of pain.
“What happened?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“Protect me for a bit, I won’t be able to do anything at all for the next few minutes, in a lot of danger” Ye Fei Li quickly said.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then called the Interstellar Wars.h.i.+p over and jumped on top of it.
Holding the sword, he looked around cautiously, releasing his inner sight to carefully observe Ye Fei Li’s change.
Ye Fei Li was still screaming in pain, rolling around nonstop.
From his body, large amounts of blood-colored glow were flowing out like a liquid.
“AAAAAaaaaaa!!”
Ye Fei Li screamed, using both his hands to hit the ground in a frenzy.
After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, then covered himself with his own wings.
Sounds of crying as well as screams of pain were mixed together, echoing out from inside the wings of bone, no one can guess how Ye Fei Li really is at the moment.
Right then, Gu Qing Shan noticed that some strange things began to manifest on Ye Fei Li’s wings.
Releasing his inner sight, he observed it up close.
Some sort of intricate runes and symbols as well as cut marks started to appear on Ye Fei Li’s wings of bone.
The symbols were few in number, but they occasionally let out a dim blinking light, giving Ye Fei Li a faint sense of mysteriousness.
Observing this, Gu Qing Shan began to loosen up.
The evolution process is always painful, that’s a known fact, but as Ye Fei Li was the “perfect evolution” that he envisioned, the evolution process did not go off the path.
Tapping his Inventory Bag, Gu Qing Shan took out a pill.
It was an energy pill.
Spirit energy is the most basic essence of heaven and earth, the purest form of power.
This energy pill was something specifically made for nurturing blood essence in the body, usually something that only high-tiered cultivators need.
And this was a pill from Bai Hua sect, something that came from Qin Xiao Lou’s own hands, even in the cultivation world, it’s an item that many people were willing to fight over.
“Catch”
Gu Qing Shan threw the pill out.
Ye Fei Li originally stayed inside the wings, not moving a single bit, but when he felt the pill, the wings opened by themselves.
His whole body was now thin to the bone, Ye Fei Li eyes also carried a frenzied color of blood, almost as if he was about to lose control of his killing intent.
Jumping up, he caught the pill with his mouth and swallowed it without any hesitation.
Although he didn’t know what this was, with how highly evolved Ye Fei Li is, he could tell this strange thing right here held a lot of energy.
After he swallowed the pill, the blood mist around Ye Fei Li begin to become thicker.
His skinny body also began to go back to normal, as the frenzied look in his eyes also retreated.
“Just a bit more and I would’ve gone mad from starvation, thanks a lot” Ye Fei Li’s eyes showed clear grat.i.tude.
Around him, the blood mist split into two, swirling like two mini maelstroms.
Then the red mist swirls went into his ears one each.
“My ear… my ear…” Ye Fei Li covered his ears.
Gu Qing Shan asked: “What’s wrong with your ears?”
“…It’s not enough, I could feel that my ears can still evolve, but I need to kill even more” Ye Fei Li replied.
Gu Qing Shan stayed silent.
Even after killing so many monsters, it’s still not enough for Ye Fei Li.
Carefully feeling the energy on Ye Fei Li, he could tell he has become different from before.
“Don’t worry though, I’ve successfully evolved” Ye Fei Li noticed his gaze and said.
Gu Qing Shan was relieved.
Closing his hands, he checked the process of the battle in the Game of Eternal.
Bodies littered everywhere, blood once again painted the ground.
The Professionists had all went crazy with murder, not really thinking of anything else but to stab their weapon into their opponent’s body.
After checking the number, Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes and said: “We don’t have enough time to let your ears evolve, we’ll have to go back”
“Not much time left?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“Right, you’re about to have to face a very powerful opponent, and you definitely can’t lose” Gu Qing Shan nonchalantly said.
“How powerful?”
“Since this is a challenge for the elites, the Game of Eternal will probably give out a very strong reward. I’m going to guess the champion’s fighting strength might barely reach the level of Martial Saint”
When Gu Qing Shan and Ye Fei Li returned to the S.W. Divine Temple, the Game of Eternal was already reaching its end.
There were only three people left in the arena.
Two of them looked exactly the same.
The other was a bulky, muscular man.
He had already fallen to the ground, breathing heavily.
Blood was flowing from the numerous holes on his body, his eyes had already becoming blank.
“Just finish… me off…” he was barely able to say that.
Standing across from him was a pair of twins wearing pugilist clothes.
“Lil’ bro, finish him off” the older of the two said.
“Fine” the younger answered.
He walked towards the man, raised his fist and was about to punch through the man’s head.
But then his fist headed toward his back.
Bam!
A sudden sound of impact.
Both brothers took one step back.
“Dear brother, I already knew you were this kind of person” the younger begrudgingly said.
“Don’t act all righteous, for the sake of eternal life, you’d make the same choice as I” the older answered.
Both their bodies moved, exchanging kicks and punches.
They both stepped back, then rushed forward again, their hands turned into after images, each strike full of killing intent.
After keeping up the stalemate for a bit, the younger stepped backwards, his hands cupped into fists and suddenly let out a burst of Martial Thaumaturgy.
“Hah!”
Shouting loudly, his fist sent his older brother flying a few meters away.
The older brother spat up blood, rolling on the ground and barely managed to stand up.
“You’re still so strong!” the older brother couldn’t believe it.
“After so many years, I’ve always held back for you, dear brother, you just didn’t know it” the younger spoke with a pitying tone.
“Why? Why would you hold back for me?” The older asked questioningly.
“Because this is a joy in and of itself. Watching you practice those clumsy movements every day, never getting through to their true meaning, there’s nothing more laughable than that” the younger declared loudly.
“Brother, eternal life shall be mine, you just lie there and die!”
The younger brother’s figure blurred, rus.h.i.+ng at his older brother like a fierce tiger.
Then suddenly, his body was sliced in two across his torso by a thin metal thread in the air.
As blood flowed from his hips, his upper body followed the inertia and flew forward.
In the younger brother eyes was a deep sense of confusion.
But his expression was frozen that way forever.
Death came so quick that he didn’t even know how he died before he fell into eternal darkness.
A small golden string was circling around the older brother.
Metal of the 5 Elements.
It turns out he wasn’t just a Martial Pugilist, but also an Elementalist that hid his ability for a very long time.
“Lil’ bro, you’ve always acted like you knew everything ever since you were small, no matter how much your older brother teaches, you never listened”
“And that’s why you’re dead”
The older brother sighed acting as if he was sincerely teaching his younger brother.
Then he walked towards the only remaining person.
A golden gleam.
His final opponent’s head was severed.
