Chapter 341: Towards the Demon Phoenix Continent (2/2)

It was simple to locate this mist, and the flood dragon within was filled with praises for their performances.

She was genuinely surprised to see the results that Xue Wei had produced, and she could not help but marvel in her heart about their gains.

Xue Wei was also quite astounded by the riches they had gained this time. Not only had they all become Heavenly Knights, but some had also even become Ordinary Saints.

Not to mention all the resources. They had gained numerous resources that could not be found generally in the outside world, as they required specific conditions, and only extreme locations such as the Thunder Twilight Zone allowed for these conditions to be met.

After finishing their talk with the Flood dragon, Xue Wei and the others exited the Thunder Twilight Zone.

Just as when they entered, a lot of people outside were waiting for them. Some had the purpose of robbing the people who had entered and gained fortune in the Thunder Twilight Zone, while others were there because they were supposed to enter it and try their own luck.

Xue Wei was observing the people that were looking at them as if they were fat sheep ready for slaughter, and he could not help but feel alert.

Although these people were not enough to threaten him if he used the Scarlet Blood Bats, he was also curious about his current strength.

The opponents had a full seven Ordinary Saint and twenty-three Heavenly Knights. There were even more Sky Knights as well, and although their damage was not enough to threaten them, they could still wear them down with their numbers.

The two groups were facing one another. One seemed small and easy to overturn, while the other was numerous and almost blotted out the horizon.

”Attack!” sounded from the opposite side, the ones with the most people did not at all fear Xue Wei nor his friends. However, reality would prove to be different from what they had expected.

The Ordinary Saint aura erupted from Xue Fu and Bai Tianyi, their strength far surpassing usual Ordinary Saints.

A massive sword made from the spiritual energy swept down, and one Ordinary Saint alongside a group of Heavenly Knights numbering three and even a whole bunch of Sky Knights suddenly lost their lives in an instant.

The sword intent that was left behind was enough to cause the heads of the remaining experts to quiver in fear, but before they had the chance to attack, Xue Fu waved her hands.

Scarlet Blood Phantom Claw!

This was one of the Scarlet Blood Bat's innate abilities and could be used in both her original form and her human shape.

A claw-like phantom appeared in the sky far above the others, but as if teleported it suddenly appeared in the midsts of the group, wreaking havoc on anyone that came close.

Lin Xiao was also testing out his new strength, the staff in his hand was being wielded with experience, and anywhere it passed, skulls were cracked, and blood flashed.

Xue Wei had initially planned on partaking in the battle and experiencing his own strength, but when he looked at the battlefield, he found that there were not enough to make him serious.

Instead, he decided to rob the corpses of their storage treasures, and while the ones observing thought that Xue Wei was just an errand boy for this group, the eyes of the friends popped out in shock. Xue Wei was simply becoming far too frugal!

Xue Wei did not care about their glances. He liked resources, and he needed an outstanding amount of them now their group had enhanced with over two hundred scarlet blood bats.

He could not let them be all on their own for cultivating; he would have to provide them with some resources for their strength to continue to be of use to him, so his obsession with resources was quite understandable.

The battle ended just like that. The experts died a gruesome and bloody death. They had no real chance to fight back, and although Xue Wei's group was much smaller, it was much more oppressive and forceful.

After finishing the battle, no one else dared to even look at them, the other experts standing outside the Thunder Twilight Zone were all feeling a chill run down their spine and feeling scared.

With a simple glance towards them, Xue Wei shook his head and withdrew a ship from his storage treasure.

The ship he withdrew was small but immensely fast. Sitting on the ship, they once more began moving towards the Demon Phoenix Continent. There was just one problem - they did not know the way.

As they sailed forward, they encountered another island that was a stop for most sailors and pirates in the Sea of the Enchanted.

They did not stay long on this island, but they managed to get their hands on a map, and afterward, their ship set sail towards the Demon Phoenix Continent.

After encountering the Thunder Twilight Zone, nothing exciting happened. Even when they encountered another ship, they did nothing to offend Xue Wei and his friends, even the pirates allowed for them to pass undisturbed.

Xue Wei was not stupid and knew that this was most likely done under the order of Tao Wu. He did not know where this monstrous expert came from, nor did he know what his plans were, but he knew that his strength was unquestionable, and having made him into a friend was the right decision.

He was also quite happy that Jiang Jingyue had found such a strong backer. Although he would have liked to spend more time with her, he understood that her destiny was different. She was to roam the high seas alongside Tao Wu and his band of pirates.

Xue Wei was unable to stop like this; he wanted much more than just be an overlord in a sea, he wanted to reach the peak of existence, he wanted to thread across an unventured path.

Like this, a year went by. The experts on board the ship were cultivating, and during this year they finally understood why Xue Wei was so obsessed with treasures. During the last year, they had not restored any resources, they had only used their stock, and it was dropping fast since he had to provide for more than two hundred experts' cultivation bases.

One day, when Xue Wei was deep in thought and cultivating his Qi, he suddenly felt something pull on his soul, and as he raised his head, he saw land in the distance.
