113: Chapter 113 Monster Killing and Leveling Up

“You'll be randomly teleported once you enter. I'm going in first. Remember, never take off your identity bracelet. As long as you don't take it off, even if you encounter a Gold Rank Monster's attack, it can bring you back here…”

After cautioning them, Thank Rain walked alone into the denser mist ahead.

Under the gaze of the four, Thank Rain, who had only walked ten meters, suddenly vanished before their eyes.

She had entered the Hidden Mist Forest Void Realm.

“She disappeared…”

The few people, who were wondering how to enter the Void Realm Instance, exclaimed in surprise at this sight. Someone had just vanished before them.

A Void Realm is another dimension. Anyone who steps into its area of influence will be pulled inside. No one knows what kind of miracle this is.

Those with low Rank, like Fang Yuan and his group, couldn't even see anything amiss ahead.

In their line of sight, the hundred meters ahead looked the same as where they were, completely unaware that walking just ten meters forward would lead them into the Hidden Mist Forest Void Realm.

Only when one's Rank reaches a certain height can they discern the Void Realm's area of influence and thus avoid it.

With the Void Realm Instance, which allowed for rapid Rank advancement, right before them, Squad of four didn't hesitate. They all grabbed their weapons and walked forward.

Just like Thank Rain, when they entered the Hidden Mist Forest's area of influence, they were also drawn into the Void Realm… “Indeed, none of them are here…”

In a moment of daze, Fang Yuan found himself in a lush green world, surrounded by towering trees tens to hundreds of meters tall.

He was alone. The other three who had been with him were all gone.

Only upon truly arriving in the Void Realm did he realize it was somewhat different from what he had imagined. It wasn't filled with gray mist like the outside world; on the contrary, there was much less gray mist.

If not for the tall trees obstructing his view, with his current eyesight, he could clearly see scenes several kilometers away.

Croak!! Croak!!

A crisp croaking sound came from a nearby bush, and the peculiar sound made him immediately look in that direction.

Through the dense green leaves, a fist-sized, emerald-green frog was faintly visible.

Fang Yuan looked closely and was surprised to discover that this fist-sized, emerald-green frog was actually a Bronze Rank Three monster.

Frog-type monsters, these monsters with obvious animal characteristics, were clearly the animals that inhabited the Hidden Mist Forest before it was assimilated by the Void Realm.

“Croak!!”

The mutated frog hiding in the bush detected the appearance of an unfamiliar creature. Driven by its biological instinct, it let out a loud cry upon sensing danger, then, to Fang Yuan's surprise, it leaped, directly jumping over twenty meters away.

Before he could react, the mutated frog made several more large leaps and quickly vanished without a trace.

Having understood mutated animals for a month or two after his Talent Awakening, Fang Yuan knew some of their characteristics.

Unlike monsters purely born from monster factor within the Void Realm, mutated animals shared considerable similarities with monster syndrome in humans to some extent.

Unlike monster syndrome patients who completely lose their minds, animals, which inherently possess little intelligence, though they also become violent after being eroded by monster factor, are not as terrifying as monsters.

At least they retain many animal instincts and won't immediately charge and fight any creature they encounter.

“I hope this Void Realm Instance won't disappoint me.”

Fang Yuan didn't pay attention to this small interlude. What he was more concerned about now was whether the monsters in this Void Realm Instance would allow him to Devour Origin energy after being killed.

However, he thought it should be possible since the monsters in the Haishi Void Realm did.

After muttering to himself for a moment, Fang Yuan arbitrarily picked a direction and ran towards it, holding his bronze long saber.

Relying on his powerful strength, he moved with an air of swagger, not at all worried about monsters hearing his movements.

Soon, without any attempt to hide himself, he attracted the attention of over ten Bronze Rank Four to Ten monsters.

More than ten three-meter-tall, slender, entirely green monsters appeared around Fang Yuan, and many more similarly shaped monsters were approaching from afar.

Green Vine Monster, the most common wood-attribute monster in the Hidden Mist Forest. Its vine-like limbs can extend several meters. Its weaknesses are its head and fear of fire. It's the favorite monster for Fire Talent users to deal with.

The more than ten Green Vine Monsters, like rabid dogs, furiously attacked the target in the center. The vines on their limbs were taut, eager to quickly catch their prey.

“Heh heh, let you all try the effects of Myriad Laws Return to Origin first.”

Besieged by so many Green Vine Monsters, Fang Yuan showed no tension. As his thought arose, more than ten fireballs, each over a meter in diameter and exceeding three hundred degrees Celsius, instantly appeared around him.

“Fall!”

With Fang Yuan's command, all the fireballs rapidly blasted towards the surrounding Green Vine Monsters.

These Green Vine Monsters, whose heads were completely filled with only slaughter, were utterly unable to stop their charge forward. All that awaited them was a grand package of fireballs.

Boom!!

Boom!!

The massive fireballs crashed into their respective targets, followed by successive explosions. Terrifying flames splattered, and all the Green Vine Monsters that attacked Fang Yuan were instantly scorched into black lumps by the high temperature.

Lumps of humanoid charcoal fell powerlessly to the ground, lifeless.

“Hiss~, is this the power of a Gold Rank Talent? Even a Silver Rank Two monster would be injured by this single attack.”

Looking at his masterpiece, Fang Yuan himself gasped. Only by truly experiencing it could he understand the power of a Gold Rank Talent; fighting above one's Rank was no problem at all.

Powerful attacks came with a price. The dozen fireballs just now consumed one-fiftieth of his stamina the moment they were released.

However, before he could lament the terrifying energy consumption, wave after wave of monster Origin was absorbed, and his expended stamina immediately recovered.

“…!”

Fang Yuan was left speechless by this up-and-down experience. He had become a perpetual motion machine, hadn't he? As long as he could keep killing monsters, couldn't he release Myriad Laws Return to Origin all day long?

Swoosh swoosh!!

The shocking annihilation did not cause the subsequent monsters to retreat in the slightest. One by one, Bronze Rank Green Vine Monsters still charged madly towards the incredibly tempting target ahead.

“Fireball, Ice Blade, Boulder, Sharp Edge, Corrosion, Wind Blade…!”

In response to this scene, Fang Yuan, experiencing the power of Myriad Laws Return to Origin for the first time, began his flashy maneuvers. Various powerful abilities, representing different Gold Rank Talents, were unleashed by him.

Bang! Crack! Sizzle!… All sorts of sounds echoed through the dense forest. Each strange sound represented a Green Vine Monster dying in various ways.

Some turned into charcoal, some were crushed into chunks of flesh by boulders, and some were corroded into a puddle of green liquid. In short, all sorts of unimaginable situations occurred.

“Haha, this is so damn invigorating!!”

Fang Yuan, wildly unleashing various attacks of different attributes, felt a surge of exhilaration.

He didn't have to worry about consumption at all. Those Green Vine Monsters could only become experimental subjects for his bulldozer-like existence.

No monster could escape the judgment of Myriad Laws Return to Origin. From beginning to end, Fang Yuan's position never moved.

Just by controlling from his spot, all the attacking monsters had already fallen.

Fifteen minutes later, Fang Yuan stood in a place with at least a thousand monster corpses, collecting his spoils.

There were simply too many monster corpses, so much so that he didn't even bother to take the crystal core of these monsters.

Fang Yuan

Rank: Bronze Rank 10 (58%)

True Spirit Talent: Origin Devouring (Gold Rank)

Ability One: [Devour] Devour the Origin of any monster killed by the possessor, restoring injuries and enhancing all personal abilities.

Ability Two: [Plunder] Plunder monster Talent Origin to complete the possessor's Talent.

Ability Three: [Evolution] Talent Rank is not constant. Devouring enough Origin can evolve the True Spirit Talent.

Ability Four: [Myriad Laws Return to Origin] Phase One: Devour myriad Talent Origins, condense them within oneself, master and, to a certain extent, become immune to various elemental energy damages.

Talent: Devour All Things (0.00000001000005%)

When he checked his energy accumulation, Fang Yuan was stunned. In just over ten minutes, he had actually accumulated forty-four percent of the energy needed.

The shocked youth looked at the dense monster corpses all around and suddenly found it quite normal.

What made him quite speechless was that out of over a thousand monsters, the progress bar at the very bottom only showed an increase of zero point zero zero zero zero… zero five percent.

That was practically nothing!
