Chapter 958 - Rivers of Blood!
Chapter 958: Rivers of Blood!
The border of the Dark lifeforms was actually a rather large region. This place was adjacent to the Law Realm, and in order to avoid conflicts, both the Law Realm and the Dark lifeforms tried to avoid having their people live in the region.
Of course, there were exceptions to everything. A few frontier folk chose to live in this dangerous region, and even trades between the Law Realm and the Dark lifeforms happened in it. Still, outsiders would never be able to truly get close to these secret exchanges.
The most numerous inhabitants of the border region were not sapient lifeforms but rather the various massive Dark lifeforms. This was because the strongest beast tamer of the Dark lifeforms, Moha, lived here, and his innumerable Dark Behemoths were the strongest barrier between the Law Realm and the Dark lifeforms.
Xia Fei did not take regular space to arrive here, instead intruding through Dark Space. In order to find the king of Dark Behemoths, he had no choice but to take a trip to the home of the Dark beasts.
*Whoosh!*
Under Xia Fei’s control, The Gemini made a nimble jump, flying out of the maw of a giant lion. That was extremely close. This black-furred lion had been sleeping behind a plant, and when The Gemini emerged from behind the planet, it almost fell into the lion’s ambush and became its food.
*Rumble!*
Xia Fei pushed on the accelerator, and The Gemini instantly hit maximum speed and soon left the terrifying lion far behind.
“That was close! The Dark lifeforms use those behemoths to guard its border, so it’s no wonder few people penetrate deeply into their territory. After all, these giant things are rather powerful, and some of these beasts are particularly sharp and can catch one unaware.” Radix wiped cold sweat off his forehead as he spoke.
Xia Fei slightly frowned as he hid The Gemini behind a few shattered asteroids. The Gemini was small, so it was easy for it to vanish without a trace.
*Bang!*
The fat Wensar was kicked into a hard alloy wall by Xia Fei, bouncing off of it and causing him to clench his mouth in pain.
This nephew of the Dark king, who had suffered a lot of torture at Xia Fei’s hands, was getting thinner by the day; thick black circles had even formed around his eyes.
Wensar had only thought that a life worse than death was the stuff of legends, but after meeting Xia Fei, he came to understand that even death was a luxury. At least, it would be much better than being brutally tortured by Xia Fei every day.
“Fatty!” Xia Fei picked up Wensar and vigorously pulled on his large ear as he viciously spoke. “Where the hell does this Moha guy live? I followed your coordinates and searched the area several times, but there’s nothing here besides Dark Behemoths. Are you trying to trick me?”
Wensar was currently a startled bird, the slightest movement from Xia Fei causing him to tremble in fear. He did not dare to lie, for all he looked forward to now was a swift death.
“I swear on the name of the Dark king that Moha definitely lives here! Lord Moha researches Dark beasts; he’s a very strange person who doesn’t like to be with others. He doesn’t even keep any servants around him besides his disciple, Feng Jita. All he has are the Dark beasts.
“Also, Moha dislikes living in any fixed place. After enough time passes, he’ll move to a different camp and continue his research on Dark beasts. Dark King Wendar has a gold-tempered gyroscope, which is the only method of summoning Moha. If you don’t have that, you’ll have to rely on luck!”
Wensar shuddered as he spoke, a sign of just how savage Xia Fei’s torture had been.
“This guy makes sense. Those guys who raise beasts are all very eccentric, preferring the company of beasts over men. Many of them even act more like beasts, doing things such as eating raw flesh and entering hibernation. There are records of such things,” Radix said, stroking his chin.
Xia Fei, who had interacted with beast tamers before, understood that Wensar was not lying. Moreover, Radix had spent a long time with those researchers and had seen countless examples of the eccentric and bizarre. It appeared that those who researched beasts were all a little strange in the head.
*Pa!*
The painful torture continued. Xia Fei punched Wensar into unconsciousness, and with this punch, Wensar’s last two teeth fell out.
Radix quietly swallowed. Xia Fei was terrifyingly cruel when it came to his enemies! Even though he was an immortal soul, he would never want to fall into Xia Fei’s hands.
Standing up, Xia Fei went to the radar and began to move his fingers around. The radar quickly displayed his surroundings, locking onto all the Dark beasts in the region.
The dots on the screen slowly began to congregate. These Dark beasts seemed to like gathering in packs. There were several concentrations of points in this region, indicating where large numbers of beasts preferred to gather.
The Gemini set off again, heading toward the greatest concentration of dots. It was a very bright spot, so dense with lights that they mixed together. There had to be tens of thousands of Dark beasts there!
Without a word, Xia Fei began to organize his equipment, his face grim. It appeared like he was about to go into battle.
“What are you planning on doing?” Radix curiously asked.
“Go over there and kill them all!” Xia Fei simply declared. Upon hearing this order, Furball howled. Ever since Peacock Blue evolved, Furball had felt uncomfortable all over. He was desperate to prove that he was also very strong, even if he had not yet evolved! The mention of a fight had his little eyes turning red.
*Plush!*
Radix almost fainted, asking, “Xia Fei, have you gone crazy? Those are tens of thousands of Dark Behemoths! Other people wouldn’t be able to get far enough from them, but you want to go over? Is it that you won’t feel uncomfortable unless you get into a fight?”
Xia Fei took advantage of the time the journey would take to have a smoke. He indifferently said, “Since that Moha is so difficult to find, I’ll have him find me! He likes Dark beasts so much; I’m sure that he won’t be able to watch as all his beloved pets die!”
Radix was stunned. It turned out that Xia Fei was luring the snake out of its hole, attacking Moha’s beloved Dark beasts to draw out the strongest beast tamer of the Dark lifeforms!
This plan of Xia Fei was audacious but was also the fastest and most effective! After all, this region in space was so large that Xia Fei would have to spend ages searching it.
*Whoosh~*
The Gemini quickly reached the edge of the beast pack. Xia Fei and Furball emerged from the warship, and then Xia Fei put The Gemini away in his spatial ring. At this moment, he entered combat mode. With Sin Raksha’s help, he flew through space!
“Ocular Cognition!”
The Beast Spirit Codex’s Ocular Cognition appeared once more! Xia Fei looked around and saw many Dark Behemoths in the distance, grouped in threes and fives. Some of them were asleep, while others were playing. The distance was far enough that none of them had noticed Xia Fei yet.
*Whoosh!*
Ending Ocular Cognition, Xia Fei lightly raised his right hand and allowed Peacock Blue to emerge slowly.
Peacock Blue was now ten kilometers long. The universe’s most tenacious weed did not appear to be different. Its tough grass blades were covered in pale white flowers of death and were brimming with poison. It was a natural enemy to the Dark lifeforms.
A second later, Xia Fei raised his right arm high like an athlete about to toss a javelin!
Peacock Blue’s eight giant blades of grass began to flail around wildly, stirring up vicious winds!
*Rumble!*
The winds gathered! Energy gathered!
As Xia Fei savagely swung, the wind attribute activated! A giant wind blade, about ten kilometers long, appeared!
It was a silver blade that could obliterate the world. The wind blade was unstoppable as it swept through space!
This was the power that had come from absorbing the Whistling Moon Willow. Peacock Blue was now capable of long-distance attacks—of sweeping through the sea of stars!
*Bang!*
*Rumble!*
The blade plunged into the beast pack, and those resting Dark Behemoths met with a calamity. Anyone struck by Xia Fei’s wind blade was sliced in half!
“Awoooo~”
Those beasts were awakened by Xia Fei’s attack and fell into turmoil. These Dark Behemoths glared at the unremarkable figure of Xia Fei in space.
One second later, this ruthless stare becomes a flood of beasts! Tens of thousands of Dark Behemoths formed a vast world-crushing army that threatened to engulf Xia Fei!
“Hahahaha!”
Xia Fei laughed at the approaching tide of beasts, and Furball howled with him, his body rapidly growing larger as he gathered energy in his chest for an attack.
“Our goal is utter extermination!” declared Xia Fei as he raised an eyebrow!
Radix clenched his teeth and took control of the fiendish blade Nirvana as he rushed forward. The fiendish blade had the special trait of devouring any enemy it killed!
Furball took a deep breath, and then he spat out an endless wave of energy. The white wave was like a sharp sword, instantly vaporizing anything it touched!
Meanwhile, Xia Fei’s right arm swung faster and faster, releasing a ten-kilometer-long wind blade each time. By the end, the wind blades had become a net of death, slicing the distant beasts into chunks!
A triple attack, as well as the power unleashed, was utterly horrifying!
The combination of Xia Fei, Radix, and Furball had created a dense net of firepower, and the tens of thousands of Dark Beasts couldn’t get out of this net! On the contrary, Xia Fei’s group was able to wipe out half of them almost instantly!
“It feels good! This sort of killing is just wonderful! Peacock Blue is so powerful, the endless wind blades are so awesome!” Radix excitedly said, his eyes gradually turning red.
Some people were able to influence their friends through their actions; Xia Fei was this kind of person. Those who stayed at his side would always end up being infected by his personality. Putting aside Furball, even Radix and Little Goldie had started to show their edge. Radix had been a scientist who was not much of a fighter, but now, he enjoyed the sensation of killing. This was truly an absurd power. Perhaps by the end, Xia Fei would be accompanied by a whole pack of madmen, all of them just as insane as he was.
The Dark beasts were no match for Xia Fei. He had the advantage of distance, relying on his long-range attacks to keep the beast pack at bay.
However, these Dark beasts did not fear death, and their mournful howls summoned even more reinforcements.
The battle continued, as did the slaughter, and rivers of blood began to flow through space!
One hour soon passed. Suddenly, those Dark beasts retreated, leaving Xia Fei alone where he stood.
Far into the distance, a rumbling could be heard, and with this rumble, Xia Fei saw a Dark Behemoth, the likes of which he had never seen before!
“He’s really a beast taming master! The Dark lifeforms can’t tame the Immemorial Mystical Armaments, so Moha raised a Dark beast that could subdue an Immemorial Mystical Armament! That’s just absurd!” Radix saw who was coming and cried, his brows furrowing..
