Chapter 61 (1/2)
Eternal Life (永生) Ch. 61
Showing Might
The strength of a ‘Shura’, Fang Han knew very thoroughly. They moved like lightning, capable of flying at extremely fast speeds. The scales on their bodies were impervious to even flying swords, and they had the strength of thirteen horses, making them only suppressible by ‘Divine Realm’ cultivators. If one ‘Shura’ was this powerful, then how powerful would ten working together be?
Probably even a true disciple like Jin s.h.i.+ Tai would be destroyed in one strike, his entire body shattered to nonexistence.
If we can actually turn the ten ‘Flying Yasha’ into ‘Shura’, then I will even be able to gain a spot amongst the true disciples. It will be even easier to dominate the ‘Shan’he Rankings’ and be first. I wonder who the first place person on the ‘Shan’he Rankings’ is? The amount of time I have spent within the Yu’hua School is too short, and I have too few intimate friends, I can’t even form a group. I am not well informed about any news. When I return, I must fix these problems. To just bury my head and cultivate is not the best plan.
While he pondered in his mind, he continued running and jumping, chasing after the aura left by the large group of ‘Heavenly Devils’.
Fang Han didn’t hope to actually fight against the large group of ‘Heavenly Devils’, that would just be like smas.h.i.+ng an egg into a stone. Instead, he only hoped to kill the stragglers which had been left behind and gain pure ‘Sky Blue Great Pellet’ and ‘Blood Pellet’ essences to create the pellets. The more ‘Heavenly Devils’ he killed, the better, and this would also greatly temper his own agility and reflexes. It would temper his ability to adapt to any situation at any time.
This would be real combat.
If he was able to survive ten days and ten nights within the ‘Heavenly Devil Arena’, after leaving, there would definitely be an obvious change.
Yan! In the following encounters with ‘Heavenly Devils’, you must not help me kill them. Let me do it by myself. I would like to make the most of this opportunity to temper myself.
Don’t worry, even if you call for me I won’t come out. The examination this time around has too many ‘Heavenly Devils’, I’m afraid some things changed. The Yu’hua School will definitely realize this, as if they allow all of the disciples taking the exam this time to die, then just would they still be able to call themselves one of the ‘Ten Great Immortal Path Schools’? They would become a small, third-rate school. If I exert my mana, it will definitely be noticed. You should also not use the ‘Silver Snake Sword’ and ‘Blood Cotton Devil Clothes’. However, you can use the ‘Seven Evil Spirits Gourd’ all you want, and that should be enough to protect yourself.
After Yan finished speaking, he quieted down.
Fang Han felt his skin stir, the ‘Yellow Springs Picture’ tattoo entering into the s.p.a.ce between his skin and membrane, completely hiding itself.
“Okay! With this many ‘Heavenly Devils’, I’m afraid that some of the disciples are in danger during the exam this time around. I just happen to have the ability to save a few. My strength is great, and along with the grace of saving their lives, they will probably all be extremely grateful, allowing me to win them over.
“The time to show my might has come!”
After Yan hid himself, Fang Han began to concentrate his spirit. His entire body seemed to be like a highly tensed up leopard about to chase after its prey. Even the slightest of vibrations of the gra.s.s blowing in the wind far away was able to be sensed by his spirit.
Constantly running and moving without the slightest rest, in the amount of time it took to roll the eyes, Fang Han had already traveled tens of li away. Suddenly, Fang Han moved diagonally, his body turning around. After skimming over a hundred steps, he viciously let out a palm, striking at an inconspicuous boulder that was beside him.
Surprisingly, the boulder didn’t shatter, but instead let out a piercing scream and leapt up, turning into a pigeon-faced old female priest. It was actually another ‘Heavenly Devil’ which had turned into a stone hoping to ambush Fang Han.
The appearance that the ‘Heavenly Devil’ turned into, who knows which eaten old priest it was based off of. However, it couldn’t conceal itself against Fang Han’s piercing eyes.
Right now, Fang Han’s spirit was able to see through ghosts masquerading as G.o.ds. It was even more sensitive than the spirits of dogs and cats by a lot (cats and dogs, when they sense yin qi ghosts they will bark and meow), so naturally, he could sense it. Thus, he had struck out and heavily injured the ‘Heavenly Devil’.
“Big Dipper Kick!”
During the time in which the ‘Heavenly Devil’ turned into the old priest, Fang Han’s leg had already struck out. An intense, powerful, and sharp qi again hit the ‘Heavenly Devil’, tearing it apart. I didn’t reform. Afterwards, he waved for the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’ to come out and wrap up the ‘Heavenly Devil’ and brought it into the ‘Yellow Springs Picture’.
Yan didn’t speak, silently refining the ‘Heavenly Devil’ into a ‘Sky Blue Great Pellet’.
One hit one kill, extremely clean.
[TL: Wasn’t really though…]
Now that Fang Han had experience killing ‘Heavenly Devils’, he was much faster at it. For him, it had become as easy as chopping radishes. Thus, as he killed more and more devils and refined them into pellets, he became more and more confident.
After killing this ‘Heavenly Devil’, he didn’t rest. He continued moving forward like a ‘Ten Thousand Li Horse’, turning left and right to observe the wilderness around him. He looked everywhere, trying to see if he could encounter another Yu’hua School disciple.
After about an hour, he swept another area of ground about several tens of li around him, and encountered another group of isolated ‘Heavenly Devils’. There were about fifteen of them. This time, his actions were even swifter. Before the ‘Heavenly Devils’ could even move, Fang han released a great roar, creating a sonic wave. With it flew the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’, catching the paralyzed ‘Heavenly Devils’. Afterwards, they were refined into pellets.
Currently, Fang Han had a total of twenty ‘Sky Blue Great Pellets’,which meant that he had killed around thirty ‘Heavenly Devils’, as ten of them had been fed to the ‘Flying Yasha’, one per ‘Flying Yasha’. Including the one that he had killed at the beginning which looked like Fang Qing Wei, he had killed a total of thirty one ‘Heavenly Devils’, and refined thirty one pellets. He now took one out and ate it. The rest would be stored until they were needed later.
Towards cultivators, pellets were their food, pellets were their wealth.
It seems as if the harm done by a sonic wave attack towards ‘Heavenly Devils’ is very great, as they are just currents of qi. I wonder what Devil King stage ‘Heavenly Devils’ are like? I heard that they are more powerful than ‘Shuras’. If I can kill one and refine it into a pellet, I wonder what the effects would be? However, without Yan helping me, I, by myself, have no way of prevailing over a Devil King.
Gradually, Fang Han figured out the fastest method for dealing with ‘Heavenly Devils’.
Pu’chi! Another ‘Heavenly Devil’ flew down from the sky. After seeing Fang Han’s flesh, it evilly, fiercely rushed down, but was captured very quickly. Yet another pellet had entered Fang Han’s hand.
“Twenty one pellets! I am still really far from three hundred and sixty pellets though, and I should kill at least five hundred ‘Heavenly Devils’ to be safe.”
Just as Fang Han was killing this ‘Heavenly Devil’ and refining it into a pellet, during this moment of fortune, within the depths of the Yu’hua School’s ‘Sky Court’, a few ‘Half Elders’ stood in front of a giant mirror. They were already anxious like the ants atop a hot pot.
