Chapter 701: Resurrection of the Dead! (1/2)
Fortunately, it concluded safely.
When Bai Xiaofei finally stopped, he was soaked with sweat like he had just been fished out of water. The intense pain made him a little dizzy.
However, the effort was worth it. Golden Feather stood in front of everyone, completely cured. There was not even a scar left where that ferocious wound had been.
As Bai Xiaofei had said, his body and abilities were very special.
“Aunt Golden, how are you feeling?” After confirming that Bai Xiaofei was fine, Leng Liuying ran to Golden Feather.
A close relationship had started to establish between the triplets and Golden Feather after what they had gone through together.
“I’m feeling great, but it seems that my ability is now limited.” Golden Feather smiled awkwardly. You gain some, you lose some. After the contract, her life was preserved but the majority of her skills were gone. The only thing left was her special flame.
The strength of a puppet depended on the puppet master. Since Bai Xiaofei was only Grandmaster Rank, Golden Feather had slipped to the Enlightened Rank.
Thankfully, her golden flame had nothing to do with ranks as it was an innate skill, the only limitation on it was quantity.
“Aunt Golden, since Liuying calls you aunt, I will call you so in the future as well.” A pale Bai Xiaofei walked over with the support of Leng Liuli and Leng Liushuang. His expression then grew serious. “Are you familiar with this place? What the hell is going on here? And what is that roar and the blood curtain above our head?”
A series of questions had everyone’s ears perked. It was impossible not to care about something that concerned their safety.
“I’m sorry, those are not from the power of our world and I don’t know much about it, but I feel the power of reincarnation from the blood curtain,” Golden Feather replied.
Bai Xiaofei’s eyes changed.
“Reincarnation?!”
“Yes, reincarnation.”
Golden Feather nodded seriously. Truthfully, she didn’t want to feel that kind of power here, because it wasn’t something that should appear in the world of the living!
“In my world, the death of the body is not the end. After the body dies, the soul will break away and drift to a place where undead gather. From there they will be processed to be reborn and start a new life. This kind of power is generally only available in the realm of the dead, so this blood curtain may bring us some unexpected difficulties,” she explained with a heavy expression. She didn’t want to put pressure on everyone, but keeping this from them would do no good.
Looking at the ring, Golden Feather’s expression froze, and then panic poured out from her eyes.
Bai Xiaofei’s heart jumped in excitement. She obviously knew something!
“Where did you find it?!” shouted Golden Feather. There was a mix of excitement, anger, and fear in her voice, as if she had found her mortal enemy.
“On those skeletons, we saw a lot of similar things along the way like they were mass-produced. Is there something wrong with this stuff?” Bai Xiaofei stared tightly at her.
Golden Feather calmed down and her face grew solemn. She asked him, “Remember what I told you about what happened in our world?”
Bai Xiaofei recalled and nodded.
“Those who suddenly appeared in our world all wore such bracelets, it’s their unique trait!” she said.
Bai Xiaofei was stunned. He felt like a typhoon was sweeping through his mind as he tried to string all the information together. The Ruins, alien experts that invaded other worlds, fallen sacred beings, strange props, how Lei Shan and the seniors were tight-lipped about everything…
Everything was connected, but Bai Xiaofei couldn’t grasp the missing vital point of the story no matter how hard he thought. However, he could be sure that the ancestors of Starnet Continent once had a life-and-death battle with those world invaders. And the result was evident.
Both sides lost…
“Boss, do we keep moving forward?” A’First softly interrupted Bai Xiaofei’s contemplation. This was not the place to ponder things.
“If I had another choice, I wouldn’t want to, but this direction is our only option!” said Bai Xiaofei resolutely. “Let’s go. No matter what’s ahead, I believe that this place is definitely not our burial grounds!”
There are many people and many things waiting for me outside. Even if you are really gods from another world, I’ll go all out with you!
Having strengthened his resolve and also recovered his energy, Bai Xiaofei took everyone back on the road.
