137: People who doubt life
Jiang Yiyi also stared intently at Chen Fei, her understanding slowly shattering.
When she first exited the Secret Realm, Jiang Yiyi couldn't find Sikong Zhenhai.
She suspected he was already dead.
But who had the ability to kill him?
Now, combining the situation at the time with a glimpse of the strength Chen Fei displayed, a bold guess formed in Jiang Yiyi's mind.
Could it be that Sikong Zhenhai was killed by Chen Fei?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yiyi was startled by her own conjecture.
If that were true!
Then he's more than just a Genius!
He's a peerless Prodigy, rarely seen in ten thousand years!
Shen Lin said with a long Face, "I thought I was catching up to Big Shot Chen Fei, but I didn't expect to be pulled even further behind.
Right, if we can have so many gains, why wouldn't Big Shot Chen Fei?"
Tang Jian was also numb. "I finally understand the expression Chen Fei had when he casually chuckled back then.
He didn't want to explain, he just didn't want to discourage us!"
At this moment, everyone felt their understanding violently assaulted.
Since his strength couldn't be hidden anymore, Chen Fei didn't care.
Anyway, after accumulating more slaughter value, he could advance to Grandmaster Level.
By then, there would be no need to keep hiding.
"Third-Generation Bugs, release the Insoluble Poison!"
The reason it's called Insoluble Poison is its extreme potency; under the toxic mist, very few can survive.
Only Ghost System, Mirror System, and other non-corporeal entities can endure it.
[Killed a Level 4, Tier 1 Four-winged Celestial Moth Beast, slaughter value +200.]
[Killed a Level 4, Tier 3 Fierce-Eyed Evil Spider, slaughter value +250.]
[Killed a Level 4, Tier 5 Four-Chain Vortex Beast, slaughter value +300.]
[...]
Evil Beasts fell in swathes, and slaughter value accumulated rapidly, even faster than killing Skeleton Monsters.
This gave Chen Fei a taste of success. "Wu Yun, World-Cleansing White Thunder!"
The tribulation lightning descending from the sky turned the Ghost System and zombie monsters into ash.
Under absolutely countering attributes, there was such powerful lethality.
Their Souls were naturally devoured by Chi Yu, who even let out a satisfied burp.
The Soul Mountain reached 22 times its destructive power and was still growing.
The surrounding people couldn't help but exclaim again:
"Holy moly, holy moly, holy moly, he's gone crazy with killing, absolutely crazy! Casually killing higher-level beings, just how much has Chen Fei been hiding?"
"First it was incredibly powerful exotic sand, now it's tribulation lightning. What is this person's background?"
"That Cat Demon must be SSS-grade!"
"Someone stronger than Ximen Lingyun, possessing an SSS-grade beast earlier than him. This person is so powerful."
Ximen Lingyun rubbed his nose, silently complaining in his heart:
My SSS-grade Sky-Swallowing Toad isn't as exaggerated as this Cat Demon, can you believe it?
Even if Chen Fei said it was an Immortal Beast, Ximen Lingyun wouldn't doubt it.
If their understanding was merely impacted just now.
Then now, their understanding was directly overturned, then crushed.
Just as it reformed, it was fiercely shattered again.
Until they doubted their very lives!
However, no matter how strong Wu Yun was, it was still just a Third-level Beast.
To hard-control those few Level 4, Tier 8 Evil Beasts for nearly a minute was already the absolute limit.
To kill them outright, that was impossible!
And it was powerless to continue!
If the Quicksand Technique also reached Flawless Grade, combined with the power of immortal fungus sand, it might be possible.
However, this extra minute of delay was already enough.
Chen Fei announced loudly, "Everyone, get ready, and listen to my command at all times!"
Previously, everyone followed Chen Fei out of respect for Ximen Lingyun and Ji Chenfeng's Face.
After Chen Fei displayed a certain level of strength, everything changed.
No one questioned Chen Fei's words anymore!
No matter where one went, strength represented everything.
Only powerful strength could command conviction!
Just as Chen Fei finished speaking, everyone sensed the ground begin to shake.
Believing it was the Earth-Splitting Demon Worm King starting its attack, everyone focused on the ground.
"Boom~"
"Boom~"
Rhythmic footsteps sounded, but they were deafening.
It was impossible to imagine how large a body would be required to produce such a sound.
The next moment!
People saw a humanoid Skeleton, as tall as a small mountain, already within a hundred meters.
With each step, a large pit appeared.
Everyone was even more horrified!
"Oh my god, a Level 5 Skeleton King, are we even allowed to live?"
"This is an inanimate object, unable to exert its strength from when it was alive, but the hardness of this Skeleton is not something we can shatter."
"We've always heard about the Fierce Land, and now we finally know where the fierceness lies."
Chen Fei stared at the giant Skeleton Monster, muttering, "It finally appeared!"
Then he shouted, "Everyone, come to me!"
As everyone gathered, crystal portals appeared one after another before them.
As the Skeleton King arrived, Chen Fei quickly yelled, "Enter!"
After speaking, he was the first to rush into the portal.
Seeing this, everyone no longer hesitated.
When they reappeared, they were behind the giant Skeleton King, at the boundary between the outer and central areas of the Fierce Land.
The Third Generation Gu Worms, arranged by Chen Fei, had already placed crystals here.
"It's temporarily safe here, everyone rest and recuperate on the spot.
Be careful not to touch any thorny vines; they are living creatures, at least Level 4 in strength."
Upon hearing this, everyone wasted no words; those who needed healing healed, and those who needed to replenish Spiritual Qi did so.
Some even took out sound transmission stones, hoping to contact their elders for rescue.
Chen Fei dampened their spirits, "It's no use; this valley not only prohibits flight but also sound.
Once inside, you cannot use sound transmission stones to send any messages.
Perhaps this is also the biggest reason why they sent us here."
The person's hand froze in place, momentarily lost in confusion, and others weren't much better.
Chen Fei ignored their thoughts, instead observing the entrance through the eyes of the Third Generation Gu Worms.
Interestingly, the Skeleton King was clashing with those Level 4, Tier 8 Evil Beast leaders.
This Skeleton King had no Soul, no Gu Worm controlling it, and the reason for its appearance was unknown.
As a result, the Evil Beasts' attacks didn't have much effect in the short term; even if they shattered it, it could reassemble at any time.
And the Skeleton King, after all, was a Level 5 Demon King in its former life; a casual sweep could send them reeling.
Those weaker were directly severely injured.
Seizing this opportunity, the Third-Generation Bugs frantically harvested their lives.
Thanks to this great Skeleton King, the speed of slaughter value accumulation was even faster than the killing speed of World-Cleansing White Thunder.
It was simply too exhilarating!
"It seems Big Shot Chen Fei has really been to the Fierce Land before, which is why he's so familiar with it."
"That's right, he can even use the Skeleton King to fight those Evil Beasts?"
"Just don't know how long the Skeleton King can last?"
Chen Fei heard their conversation, his tone becoming a bit heavier: "It won't last long!
Although this Skeleton King can constantly reassemble, its intelligence is too low; as long as they bypass it, they can delve deeper into the Fierce Land.
Those Evil Beasts haven't discovered this yet. When they react, it'll be time for us to keep running."
Ximen Lingyun quickly reacted: "You mean, we need to go deeper?"
