Chapter 977: Valley’s Current
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
This time, Qin Feng did not even need to show himself. Instead, he had his seven shadow splits, along with the four to five hundred specters, crush the battle. Other than the SS-tier who had managed to escape, the rest of the S-tiers from the Dark Coalition died on the spot.
Qin Feng reaped the reward almost effortlessly.
Qin Feng was not at all feeling guilty of exercising such a tactic that had little difference from cheating.
***
Two hours later, Qin Feng had “cheated” seven groups in total. So far, he had only found Hell Stones in all seven encounters. No sight of either dragon blood or dragon marrow just yet.
Oddly, he realized that everyone had begun to shift toward the exit.
‘Perhaps they have intel that I am not aware of?’ Qin Feng suspected.
He decided to tail one of the groups. They did not have anything worth ambushing. Thus, Qin Feng followed them quietly and gathered important intel along the way.
The Bahamut continent was definitely not a friendly place. Casualties had piled up to two hundred out of the six hundred who had entered the valley this time. The falling of an S-tier was a common occurrence here. After all, death was a common theme in this unforgiving dimension.
As it was so common, these people were extremely cautious, praying that the scythe of death would not swipe at them next.
Just like the reason they would leave the continent, they were leaving the valley now because the sun was about to set.
Qin Feng took note of the time. They had wasted half an hour hiking. Then, he led the way for another half an hour and wandered by himself for three more hours. If the time when they began the trek was near mid-afternoon, then it was probably close to 4 pm right now. The sunray was going to disappear soon. If they did not leave now, they would be trapped here for at least another month.
If the Dragonspine valley was already this horrible during day time, it was not difficult to imagine how harsh it would become during night time.
The dark runes in here were currently being suppressed by the sunlight. It would be extremely terrifying when the light fades.
‘How terrifying will it be? Is it going to be more terrifying than the nights in the mainland?’ Qin Feng had no idea. But he had no fear with Bai Li by her side.
‘But wouldn’t it be better this way? No one would be around so there would be no SS-tier threatening me then!’
‘I can even upgrade my conscious power to S-tier here! I am sure of it!’
At that time, Qin Feng’s Sovereign Roar would be unstoppable, not even by an SS-tier.
After having these thoughts, Qin Feng made a bold decision—He was staying.
“I wonder if Shao Tai and Voodoo Lord are still alive. If they are not killed, perhaps they would stir up some trouble in the Dark Citadel!”
Qin Feng could not care less about the unimportant Dark Citadel. Even if they had seen his true strength, they would not have guessed his identity as the president of the Fengli Organization.
As time passed, the remaining aptitude users left the Dragonspine Valley one after another.
Voodoo Lord and Shao Tai were indeed still alive. With Qin Feng alleviating most of their burden, Zolls’s troop’s fighting capacity was well preserved. Thanks to that, Zolls bagged quite a fortune this round. He even generously spared some to Shao Tai and Voodoo Lord.
“Judging by his capability, he has certainly escaped unscathed. You two, find him for me and bring him in next month. If not, I will know where to find you both, no matter which dimension you go to!”
As he spoke, Zolls held his hand up. A conscious force soon struck the two, putting a grimace on their faces.
“Soul Mark.”
Zolls tagged them and could now find them no matter where they were hiding.
Voodoo Lord and Shao Tai cursed grudgingly on the inside. They finally understood the cost of collaborating with an SS-tier on an uneven scale. They deeply regretted it, but it was all too late now.
Qin Feng did not know that Voodoo Lord and Shao Tai did not get to return to the Blue Star Realm at all in the following month because Zolls wanted him.
After they left, astounding changes began to take place inside the valley.
Splash!
There came the sound of water splashing in the dark.
‘What is this?’
Qin Feng watched quietly with his consciousness stretched out to the furthest.
This was when he saw a current.
It rippled off from the depths of Dragonspine Valley. Qin Feng reckoned that it resembled a stream.
Something was being carried by it.
Figureless specters were seen hovering above the stream. Suddenly, they swarmed simultaneously toward a specific location.
Their sounds became eerier with urgency in it. The specters pounced onto an object that was flowing along with the current.
It was a Hell Stone.
The first specter swallowed the Hell Stone, while the others tried to tear it apart. But such assault only resulted in them fusing with one another.
This looked like a fusion more than a battle.
Gradually, all the specters merged into a new giant creature.
Unlike a soulless specter, this newborn at least harbored a raw and simplistic consciousness.
Suddenly, Qin Feng realized that this land of death was not completely void of life after all.
This creature in front of him was the new life native to Bahamut.
The specters were much like human cells. If undisturbed, they would naturally come together and breed a new form of life.
Among the intelligent species Qin Feng had encountered before, the Cinderclast Golem was the best example. They too were created from the assembly of fire elements.
However, such an evolution would take a very long time. The visiting plunderer would not care to preserve them. Qin Feng would not either.
He charged forward but was immediately met by a powerful force.
‘This is…’
Qin Feng was taken aback. He did not sense anything when probing with his consciousness earlier. But when the current got closer to him, Qin Feng finally sensed it.
The stream itself was liquefied energy. Although it is not as dense as an energy cube and was filled with dark energy, it fit Qin Feng’s appetite just right.
Besides, there were ample of them incoming.
“Absorption!”
Qin Feng no longer cared about the new creature or the Hell Stone.
He gulped the energy flow insanely. Perhaps his opportunity to attain S-tier depended on this.
Even though they were both Immortals, Bahamut was surely more powerful than the Snow Lady. Without proper protection, Qin Feng probably could noy reach the Immortal’s core based on his current strength. But taking only a portion of Bahamut’s energy was rewarding enough for Qin Feng.
Qin Feng was glad that he had chosen to come here and stayed put.
The whirlpool between his brows had been opened up more than ten times today. He engulfed the vast power gluttonously.
His consciousness responded to the influx and improved rapidly. He believed he could reach S-tier in less than a month at this rate!
