Huge fruits condensed on giant trees,
Roots buried deep in the ground like ginseng,
Vines as robust as living humans standing upright...
When it is silent here, they are rely fruits, roots, and vines, but as soon as soone approaches, emitting faint breaths and light footsteps, these things wake up, revealing grotesque and fierce faces, using their special organs to sniff the scent on living humans — They are the Barbaric Yin Soldiers.
As they ventured deeper, they found the ancient tomb in a labyrinthine jungle, but outside the tomb was a millennium "palace" built up by barbaric vegetation, housing a massive army of Yin Soldiers.
In such a situation, it was very difficult to find shortcuts; one must fight through.
The revived Yin Soldiers, like a dark red ocean, fixed their gaze on the intruders, surging forward relentlessly.
"Leave it to us." Xu Xia said.
Wu Hen nodded; he did not want to waste his Qi on these incessant Yin Soldiers.
With Wei Gu leading the way, and Xu Xia and Fei Ying handling the minor enemies, even when encountering fierce barbaric creatures, Qingxi would decisively intervene.
It's fair to say that these miscellaneous soldiers outside the ancient tomb were there rely to delay ti, allowing the Green-tailed God to complete its transformation.
During the march, Wu Hen specifically observed Fei Ying's fighting style.
Wu Hen rembered that Fei Ying's evolution was not obvious; she was a warrior who heavily relied on technological equipnt. Only by accessing the dark technology of the Daxuan Empire could those Spirit Awakeners like her beco powerful.
Indeed, Fei Ying still primarily used elental weapons; the armor on her back had a design similar to an eight-ard Asura, with each wing arm equipped with different weapons.
At this mont, Fei Ying was using a type of Fiery Flas Crossbow. Each arrow the heavy crossbow fired was like a fire Phoenix sweeping past, having an extrely lethal effect on those Barbaric Yin Soldiers. Virtually wherever the Phoenix arrows flew, the Yin Soldiers along that path were turned to ash, clearing a path free of thorn devil trees for them.
"There are more above, as nurous as moths during the humid season." Xu Xia was chopping down the Yin Soldiers surging from behind when he looked up to see a dense mass of Yin Soldiers falling from the ancient great tree crowns.
"Leave it to !" Another of Fei Ying's wing arms imdiately underwent a chanical transformation, becoming a large-caliber energy cannon in an instant.
Fei Ying, utilizing her Perception, locked on the sky in a very short ti and perford biological tracking on the vast number of Yin Soldiers.
"Boom!!"
The next second, the energy cannon released a burst of blue light that soared into the sky and burst open like fireworks.
However, the blue light fireworks did not follow a parabolic trajectory or free fall, but turned into firefly missiles, each missile having its precise target, completely incinerating all the Yin Soldiers hiding in the tree crowns or attempting aerial attacks in the blink of an eye.
Ash rained down from the sky, with not even the Yin Ice's claws or bone knives spared. This large-scale precise strike also amazed Wu Hen.
It seed his old teammates, although primarily Sixth Rank Life, heavily relied on advanced technology.
It was like a special forces soldier, who if evaluated for hand-to-hand combat ability, could fight at most around ten ordinary people.
But equipped with his usual training and special-use weapons, even with the most ordinary military blade, his combat ability would increase more than tenfold, not to ntion those powerful firearms and cannons.
"In the past when we t large armies of Yin Soldiers, she handled them single-handedly; she's simply a battlefield harvester," Xu Xia, responsible for clearing the rear, actually had a relatively easy task.
Wu Hen nodded; no wonder there were Yin Soldiers appearing in multiple Barbaric Land Erosions. These Yin Soldiers were actually very cunning; every ti Holy Power was used to transcend them, they would form a dense Yin Evil to cover themselves, completely like a group of sewer rats hiding in fog, very difficult to clean up, and using a Holy Decision's wide killing power was often blocked by the lush barbaric vegetation, allowing most of the Yin Soldiers to survive.
Fei Ying's elental weapon could both attack a range and hunt precisely. The fog by the Yin Soldiers had no effect on her enemy-locking device; it was essentially a dinsionally-reductive strike.
"How do you solve your recharging problem? If it's a tactic of swarming, and you can't recover slowly through specific cultivation thods like we Holy Cultivators, you surely can't carry a large amount of ammunition every battle, can you?" Wu Hen asked.
Fei Ying walked ahead, glanced back at Wu Hen.
She didn't understand why a Holy Cultivator was interested in her weapon equipnt.
"Any species, after death, produces a tiny amount of Dark Energy, which can also be understood as their souls. My winged arms can absorb this Dark Energy and convert it into the ammunition needed for all weapons," Fei Ying explained.
Wu Hen suddenly realized.
Killing restores mana.
It appears that the Daxuan Empire's Dark Technology is indeed special, solving the problem of human firearm warriors needing to carry magazines and ammunition. As long as the weapon is intact, even if stranded in a primitive otherworldly wilderness, they could recharge their weapons by hunting other high-energy life forms...
It's clear that after discovering that all things can be driven by Dark Energy, the Daxuan Empire designed a series of devices driven by Dark Energy. And with Dark Energy omnipresent throughout the otherworldly realm, their citizens, even without highly evolved perfect bodies, could contend with powerful otherworldly Predators using these exclusive elental weapons.
Fei Ying belongs to the pure Technology Party.
However, the eight-winged arms on her back are truly extraordinary, giving one the feeling of a chanical Ascension. Yet, the overall design resembles Asura from the mythological system; if further high-level improvents could be achieved, she would belong to a generation of chanized divine beings in the otherworldly wilderness.
...
After clearing a huge number of Yin Soldiers, Wu Hen finally saw the ancient tomb.
The ancient tomb was unsealed, and its interior structure was fully exposed, representing a layout not perable north to south, deliberately facing away from the sun's path to absorb Yin Hua.
The Green-tailed God was lying in a Dragon Blood Wood Coffin at that mont, the coffin half floating. The Green-tailed God's nine tails turned into suckers absorbing the essence of the world, half buried in the Barbaric Soil, and half connected to the sky.
Suddenly, the Green-tailed God opened his eyes, revealing the fangs of the Nine-tailed God beneath his lips.
He sat up from the coffin, appearing like an ancient king who had just finished his noon nap, receiving guests who had been waiting outside for a long ti, lazily exuding a hint of majesty.
"I spared you, but you do not intend to spare . Why not strike when I hadn't recovered my Qi?" the Green-tailed God eyed Wu Hen with a sinister and enticing look.
He paid no attention to anyone else, but even as he scrutinized Wu Hen, he could feel a shift in his deanor, from initially slightly defensive to now completely relaxed and superior.
"Step back, the more I think about it, the more irritated I get. I feel like I won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't deal with you. Since insomnia is boring, I might as well take back what's mine. Initially, I didn't plan to eat well; having Jiang Heng fill my stomach would have been enough. But since you swallowed my midnight snack, I can only slaughter you to prepare a sumptuous late-night feast to comfort myself," Wu Hen said.
"Enduring montarily, paves the way for great achievents. Since you have co here, you should know what my original body is," the Green-tailed God said.
"You are a Nine-tailed Beast capable of reincarnation," Wu Hen stated frankly.
"Hehe, what Nine-tailed Beast? In the long past, I was just a demon beast!" the Green-tailed God revealed a hint of disdain for the past, then continued,
"I was not content to remain a little demon beast, so I began to cultivate. After a thousand years of difficult cultivation, I reached the threshold of a Demi Immortal. However, an unexpected Heavenly Tribulation made realize that, as the order of living beings is set by the heavens who decided I was born a little demon beast, they do not permit demon beasts to ascend, treating all such hopeful demon beasts with eradication..."
"When I was blasted to ashes, I didn't bla the heavens."
"I thought, it must be because I hadn't cultivated diligently enough in this life, failing to forge a strong Primordial Spirit to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation..."
The Green-tailed God was calmly narrating, but Wu Hen interrupted him.
"You might as well start from Pangu's Creation of Heaven and Earth. To summarize, you finally cultivated your Primordial Spirit, found that it couldn't withstand the Heavenly Tribulation, realized that opposing the heavens was foolish, endured, and sought a new path. Utilizing your ability to reincarnate with mories, you dispersed your Primordial Spirit into the Night Blood Stone, and then sent an empty shell to trick the Heavenly Tribulation. Even if it got destroyed, your Primordial Spirit Power remains in this world. In your next life, once gathered, you will again be a deity roaming through the Desert Dust!" Wu Hen said.
The Green-tailed God's eyes darkened, feeling inexplicably suffocated by this interruption of emotions.
"Stop wasting ti here; you can continue talking, but it depends if I crush you or not. I was kind enough to share Jiang Heng with you, seeing your difficult cultivation, and possessing the golden finger of reincarnation with mories which ensures survival, you will definitely be a supre deity eventually. But you were ungrateful, insisting on monopolizing everything; how could Wu Tian tolerate you!" Wu Hen was unleashing a torrent of verbal power. Even before it physically hit his opponent, it already caused the enemy to feel internally wounded.
The Green-tailed God swallowed that strange feeling.
Honestly, he couldn't understand why this youngster easily irritated people, causing a churning anger in their bellies.
"What do you think you are? Even Heavenly Tribulations can't destroy . You are just a stepping stone for to beco a Heavenly Saint Immortal God. Go to hell!" The Green-tailed God declared, pulling out his nine tails that connected the heavens and earth, and with the exaggerated transformation into a demonic divine being, charged at Wu Hen!
