Chapter 788: Encounter

After he learned how to split spiritual energy, Han Fei was too strong for Yu Ying, as evidence from how he broke the blockage of the three manipulators with one punch.

Han Fei opened his mouth and bared his fangs. "You know too much."

Little Black had already dashed up, and Yu Ying moved horizontally before she was hit. She had lost her Semi-Divine equipment, which she didn't have the time to recollect a moment earlier.

At this moment, Yu Ying, who had completely turned into a shadow, had flashing eyebrows, and a Shadow Scorpion appeared. Then, the Shadow Scorpion turned into a Half-Mermaid identical to Yu Ying.

Both of them were covered in ultra-quality battle suits and a shadow barrier.

At this moment, the Overlord stood behind Yu Ying, and Han Fei pressed close with his Golden Harpoon as he smiled creepily. "I have only one question for you. If you answer it, you'll live; if you don't, you die."

Yu Ying looked back, and the invisible danger didn't seem to catch up with her again.

Yu Ying took a deep breath. "What is it?"

Han Fei's lips curled. "Chixue Huan asked me to look for a golden fruit. What is the fruit? Don't tell me that you don't know. You only have one chance. If the fruit is so important, a lot of people should know about it, especially the strong and talented ones like you."

Yu Ying's heart trembled in the shadow. "I will die all the same if I tell you the answer!"

Han Fei chuckled. "Since you call me a traitor, then a traitor I'll be. I'm not going back to the Ten Thousand Demon Valley. The case will be the same whether I kill you or not. You can take a chance."

Yu Ying looked at Han Fei in shock. "You're going to take the channel on the human side?"

Han Fei tilted his head. "You have three seconds to consider."

"Three… Two…"

Before Han Fei said one, Yu Ying had replied, "It's a Heritage Dredging Fruit that can improve your Demon Heritage."

"Hiss!"

Han Fei gasped hard. Was there such a thing in this world?

He had a Heritage Stealing Fruit, which had unbelievable effects. It was a shame that he couldn't use it. What about the Heritage Dredging Fruit?

Han Fei narrowed his eyes. "What's its effect?"

Yu Ying shook her head. "It's a legendary fruit. Who knows?"

Han Fei was surprised. "Why do you know about such an important matter? If it can improve your Demon Heritage, what if the person who finds it eats it?"

Yu Ying scoffed. "That won't happen. Lord Blue Feather knows the level of our Demon Heritage perfectly. You may be interested in it, but you don't need it. You have a growing Demon Heritage in the first place. It makes no difference whether you have it or not."

Han Fei remarked in mixed feelings. "That explains a lot."

All of a sudden, Shu Shan said from the bracelet, "It can increase your heritage by a whole level. However, the Heritage Dredging Fruit was already picked in my age. Has it grown back again?"

Han Fei chuckled. "Old man, you know that too?"

Shu Shan said angrily, "Who's an old man? Call me big brother. I'm still young."

Han Fei snorted. "I'm relieved to know that the fruit is a real thing. It must've grown back as countless years have passed since your age. Why else would the people of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley be competing for it?"

Shu Shan asked, "Humph! Are you going to set her free?"

"Set her free?"

Han Fei said to Yu Ying, "Go to the other world!"

All of a sudden, Han Fei activated the Majestic Mystic Spell and initiated the fist marks again. He didn't want Yu Ying to escape as shadows again.

Yu Ying burst into a fury. "Shameless!"

Yu Ying was locked onto by a terrifying power. She instantly roared, "Sea God's Attachment!"

Han Fei laughed. He would've taken it seriously if it were Yu Ji's Sea God Arrival, but he knew that Sea God's Attachment was nothing to be scared of.

Boom!

After a punch, Han Fei put a mouthful of Candle Dragon Blood into his mouth without hesitation. The Overlord had already stopped the other clone. Han Fei's fist marks had turned golden. They were less powerful but more enduring. Yu Ying was covered in blood in only ten seconds.

Han Fei slightly raised his eyebrows. "I'm truly curious about the sturdy lives such as yourself. I didn't even notice when you swapped with your Companion Spirit."

"Puchi!"

A great number of Void Chains appeared underneath Yu Ying's feet. After Little Black's bite, the Overlord's smash, and Han Fei's performance of the Art of Invincibility, Yu Ying was penetrated on the spot no matter how sturdy he was.

Suddenly, Han Fei detected that a team of nine sea demons was approaching quickly from forty kilometers away.

"Huh?"

Han Fei frowned. How could they have come so fast?

Han Fei stood still. He was still waiting.

One second passed.

Two seconds passed.

When Yu Ying emerged from the void, he launched another Sacrificing Punch. He wasn't panicked as it would take the sea demons at least a minute to arrive.

"Dissemble!"

Han Fei's pupils contracted. She could turn herself into pieces of shadow?

"Freeze!"

A voice came from his bracelet, and Yu Ying's half split shadow was frozen.

Boom!

Covering the target with the Sacrificing Punch, Han Fei recalled Little White, Little Black, the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp and the Overlord, ready to go.

"Thank you, old man."

Han Fei was more or less surprised. This old man had been dead for so many years, yet he was able to still freeze a target so easily? That must be a threat. Yes, it had to be a threat.

When Han Fei was about to leave, he found that a glowing stone was drifting away from where Yu Ying perished.

Han Fei quickly grabbed it.

Data popped up in his eyes.

<Name> Bone Transformation Spiritual Lamp

<Introduction> This is a lamp made of the bones of a deep-sea demon. When the lamp shines, creatures under level-50 within its coverage will melt in three seconds, those between level-50 and level-60 will melt in ten seconds, and those between level-60 and 70 will melt in a hundred seconds. It does not work on creatures above level-70.

<Quality> Mid-Quality Divine Weapon

<Maximal Usage> One

Note: All the creatures within the coverage of the lamp will be significantly slowed.

"Hiss!"

Han Fei gasped hard. What the hell? A mid-quality Divine Weapon?

Yu Ying was only a peak-level sea demon. Why was she carrying a mid-quality Divine Weapon?

Unfortunately, Han Fei had no time to think and could only flee.

…

Several minutes later, someone found Yu Ying's broken bones, which were still recognizable.

The leader of the team changed his expression. "It's Yu Ying. Something happened to Yu Hun's team."

Someone exclaimed. "How is it possible? That team was very strong. They have Lord Yu Hun, Yu Ji, Yu Ying and even Yu Fei…"

The leader said angrily, "We're only ten seconds later. The water is still rolling. Chase after them!"

Han Fei thought for a moment and decided not to lure the team to Cao Jiaren's side as the team had too many people.

He also studied the Bone Transformation Spiritual Lamp, which was terrifying. He would be killed in three seconds if he were exposed to its light. How terrible was that?

No, she must've carried the Divine Weapon for something big. Was she meant to kill the Leafless Tree? Definitely. Chixue Huan must've been prepared to kill it.

Han Fei's eyes flashed. If Yu Ying carried a Divine Weapon, was it possible that other teams carried Divine Weapons too?

Sensing that the sea demons moved in a different direction, Han Fei didn't intend to trap them again.

Cao Jiaren clearly had a team of ten men, and this team had the same number of people. Besides, Cao Jiaren's team had just been through a battle, and it was possible that they were still exhausted.

"Forget it. Off you go!"

…

Half a day later, Han Fei punched and shattered a Hundred-Year Tree Demon, retreating the Void Chains.

Han Fei dug out a spiritual fruit that could increase a significant amount of physical strength. He simply swallowed it.

Han Fei pointed to an area of water, "Old man, which sea is this place connected to? And what's that big tree? What will I gain if I kill it or save it?"

The bracelet was silent for a long time. "Would you believe me if I say that I'm not certain?"

Han Fei rolled his eyes. "Of course not! You've lived for such a long time. You didn't come here before?"

Shu Shan said, "You saw me because I came here as reinforcements. I didn't live here, so I'm not sure about the secrets of this place. I do know some of the tales, such as the Heritage Dredging Fruit. but I don't know where this place leads to."

Han Fei asked, "What would your guess be?"

Shu Shan was lost for words. "How could I guess? Well, I think I can make one. First of all, the dry tree can't be a Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon. I saw a real Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon before, which was as strong as me. Since both parties are fighting for the dry tree, it must be a key to a channel. If I have to guess, the channel may lead to an unknown forest of demonic plants."

"Huh? You saw a Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon before? Have you been to the forest of demonic plants?"

Shu Shan replied casually, "In their long history, human beings once fought side by side with the demonic plants, but later they were at war. It was a secret even back in my age. Now that human beings are even weakened, they don't have an opportunity to cooperate with the demonic plants anymore."

Han Fei asked in surprise, "Human beings and demonic plants once cooperated?"

Shu Shan snorted. "Human beings even married sea demons before. Is there a problem that they worked with demonic plants?"

After a long silence, Han Fei asked thoughtfully, "Well, have human beings ever married demonic plants?"

Shu Shan seemed to consider it carefully for a moment, until he said unhurriedly, "How can you sleep with a tree?"

Han Fei giggled. "How can you sleep with a fish?"

Shu Shan fell silent again… "You do have a point."

The two of them stopped talking, and Han Fei pet Little White. "Let's go, daughter. We'll keep hunting for treasures."

…

One day passed.

Han Fei acquired eleven spiritual fruits. He was amazed at this place, which was essentially a garden of spiritual fruits, and wished that he could live here for a year.

Of course, it was impossible for him to do that.

Han Fei ran into two human teams and one sea demon team on his way, but he avoided all of them.

This time, Little White suddenly ran in one direction.

Han Fei chased Little White for a while. Then, his eyes widened, as the destination did look like a garden. He had already detected three spiritual fruits.

Of course, he discovered a few Hundred-Year Tree Demons too. After swimming ten more kilometers, Han Fei stopped as he found that forty people were fighting. There were even Thousand-Year Tree Demons among them.

"So many people?"

Han Fei was delighted after quickly scanning.

"Luo Xiaobai and Le Renkuang?"

However, it wasn't long before Han Fei realized that the human beings were outnumbered.

Human beings had only two teams and seventeen members left, and the sea demons had three teams and 26 members. They had nine more warriors.

Han Fei frowned. "Old man, are you going to take action?"

His bracelet shivered. "I can't. I already used up my strength that I got from the five hundred kilograms of Spirit Awakening Fluid you gave me by freezing the sea demon for you earlier."

Han Fei rolled his eyes. "You're not helping the disadvantageous human beings?"

Shu Shan scoffed. "You're hiding your strength. You're as good as more than five people in this battle."

Han Fei: "…"
