Xu Hei moved cautiously, taking the storage bag and sweeping it with his Divine Sense, only to be stunned.
Inside the storage bag, there were only five hundred thousand Spirit Stones and not a single Magical Treasure. How could soone be so poor?
"No way?" Xu Hei couldn't believe it, suspecting that the person had hidden the treasures elsewhere. He planned to search the person's body for a while.
But just then, Han Te suddenly snatched the storage bag, jumped up like a zombie, and retreated thirty ters away.
Xu Hei was taken aback, looking again to find Han Te still appeared unconscious, not as if he had woken up.
Han Te clutched the storage bag tightly, his head drooping, eyes shut, with a lingering expression of grief and despair on his face.
"Hey, Han Te?" Xu Hei called out.
Han Te didn't respond.
Xu Hei thought for a mont and shouted, "Your Spirit Stones fell!"
The supposedly unconscious Han Te suddenly opened his eyes wide, sprang up, and looked around in panic.
When he saw Xu Hei, he quickly checked the storage bag in his hand and, finding the Spirit Stones intact, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But then he glanced at the distant ruins and began to wail again.
"Ahhh!! My Spirit Stones, they're gone! All gone!"
Han Te sat on the ground, crying like a slaughtered pig.
Xu Hei was speechless.
It's just Spirit Stones, is it really worth all this?
"What happened to you?" Xu Hei asked.
"The twenty-three Cave Dwellings I bought, and a mine, all gone! The Spirit Stones I painstakingly saved, I didn't even use them myself, all gone," Han Te said with a mournful face.
Xu Hei really had nothing to say.
This guy is too miserable, buying more than twenty Cave Dwellings here. Calculating at a million each, that's twenty million.
No wonder he's so poor; that's the reason.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I'm now penniless and desperately need Spirit Stones. If you have any needs, as long as the Spirit Stones are in place, I'll do anything you ask!" Han Te said urgently.
Xu Hei looked him over and shrugged, "What Spirit Stones do I have? I'm penniless too, not lying to you."
Xu Hei was indeed penniless.
To obtain materials for Five Elental Artifact Refining, he had spent all his Spirit Stones. The rest were thrown into the Spirit Beast Ring to feed the insects; he couldn't exactly make them spit it back out.
The only Spirit Stone he had was the Supre Spirit Stone he obtained earlier, but he would never take that out.
Han Te's expression imdiately fell.
Xu Hei shook his head, ignoring him, and flew towards the depths of the ruins ahead.
The sky and ground were filled with the smog from the impact, a dark mass, making it impossible to see the direction with the naked eye, relying only on Divine Sense to discern.
Explosions occasionally occurred in the distance, and the sounds of fighting could be heard; this place was not peaceful.
Before long, Xu Hei found a corpse burned to charcoal, but unfortunately, the storage bag had already been taken.
Along the way, he also encountered many teorite fragnts, so quite large, which Xu Hei did not pass up and collected one by one.
Xu Hei continued forward for a distance, entering a sunken terrain where the front was filled with scorching magma. The heat from the impact was terrifying, turning into a sea of magma, with everything in sight a fiery red.
"This must be the impact point," Xu Hei thought to himself.
Ahead was all fiery red, scorching magma, and the entire Chaos Star City had lted. Once the magma cooled, it would beco a giant teorite crater.
Xu Hei spread his Divine Sense, probing into the depths of the magma, but found nothing.
However, there were quite a few cooled teorite fragnts nearby.
teorites have the effect of isolating Divine Sense, like the stones in gambling stones, and also contain the power of the stars, making them excellent materials for Artifact Refining.
If forged into Flying Swords, they could be used to construct the Star Sword Formation, achieving twice the result with half the effort, much better than using ordinary Flying Swords for formations.
Xu Hei imdiately began collecting teorite fragnts.
Of course, not all fragnts were needed; each fragnt varied in size and the power of the stars contained. Xu Hei would only collect those that t the quality standards.
Many cultivators were doing the sa as Xu Hei, searching for fragnts in this area.
When people t, they would actively avoid each other to prevent disputes.
Han Te noticed the situation and joined in; to him, these fragnts were all gleaming Spirit Stones.
In the blink of an eye, a day passed.
The teorite fragnts Xu Hei obtained were enough to refine a hundred Flying Swords.
But strangely, initially, he could still encounter so fellow cultivators, but now, after more than half a day, he hadn't t anyone.
Xu Hei squinted his eyes, sensing sothing was wrong.
He didn't think too much about it, continuing to collect fragnts, but his attention was more focused, and the range of his Divine Sense expanded further.
After searching for another hour.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, a cold gleam shot from behind, and Xu Hei, without a change in expression, turned and raised a palm, a gust of wind surging from his palm, colliding with the cold gleam.
Azure Dragon Immortal Spell, Summon Wind.
"Crash!"
The cold gleam was blown away, followed by dozens more cold gleams, which, upon closer inspection, were flying needles.
Xu Hei used the sa thod, blowing them all away with Summon Wind, quickly locking onto a figure, shooting out like a sharp sword, thunder gathering in his palm.
Azure Dragon Immortal Spell, Summon Thunder.
"Impressive skills, Fellow Daoist!"
The figure quickly retreated, shouting while retreating, "Fellow Daoist, the smog here is thick, and it also blocks Divine Sense, making it perfect for ambushes. Why don't we team up, kill and seize treasures, and split the spoils?"
Xu Hei ignored him, using the effect of Summon Wind to accelerate, instantly closing in, and the thunder in his palm struck down on the opponent's head.
Split the spoils, with you?
"Bang!!"
With a thunderous roar, the cultivator was smashed into a pulp by Xu Hei's palm thunder.
However, Xu Hei did not find the person's Elental Infant, nor a storage bag; the one who died was just an empty shell.
"Fake?"
Xu Hei frowned slightly, looking at his palm, only to find it had turned black.
His palm also felt a bit numb, and this sensation was rapidly spreading throughout his body, threatening to corrode him.
"Is this person poisoned?"
Xu Hei's mind moved, the Demon God Cauldron activated, quickly absorbing the poison and refining it clean.
But he pretended to be poisoned, imdiately sitting cross-legged, setting up a Formation, taking a Pill, and focusing on detoxification, his deanor showing a hint of panic.
"Rumble..."
Sothing underground was approaching, and when it reached directly below Xu Hei, it suddenly shot upwards, aiming for Xu Hei's rear.
Xu Hei's face showed panic, but at the mont the opponent approached, he raised his palm and punched the ground, colliding with the erging figure.
"Earth Pulse Fist!"
Xu Hei shouted, his punch smashing down on the person's head.
The person's eyes still held disbelief, "You weren't poisoned?"
"Boom boom boom..."
A series of explosive sounds followed, Xu Hei's force penetrating the person's entire body, like a string of linked bombs, blowing the person into a pile of flesh.
Without even using the Star-Moon Sword, Xu Hei dealt with the opponent using just the Demon God Cauldron and Immortal spells.
"No wonder there are no cultivators here; it turns out you were killing and looting," Xu Hei said coldly.
He raised his hand, pulling an Elental Infant over, grabbing it in his hand. This person's poison skills were indeed formidable, managing to poison him, which was sowhat impressive.
But the opponent didn't expect Xu Hei to detoxify so quickly, perfectly countering it.
"Spare , Fellow Daoist, I was blind. As long as you don't kill , I'll agree to anything!"
The Elental Infant was still pleading, but Xu Hei didn't listen, crushing it with a slap.
With a roar of Dragon Shatter Roar, the Divine Sense was also shattered into nothingness.
Xu Hei picked up the person's storage bag, sweeping it with his Divine Sense.
Inside the storage bag, the teorite fragnts were three tis more than his, along with so storage bags obtained from killing other cultivators, totaling five, aning five cultivators had died at this person's hands.
However, Xu Hei didn't find the materials for poison refining he was interested in, nor any Magical Treasures.
"Hmm? Strange."
Xu Hei frowned, wondering if he had missed so storage artifact, but after searching again, he found nothing.
There were only two possibilities: either the person destroyed all their belongings before dying, or the person wasn't their true self.
But if it wasn't their true self, how did they possess an Elental Infant?
Unable to figure it out, Xu Hei transferred the teorite fragnts and five storage bags into his own storage bag.
The commotion from the fight just now was significant, making it unsuitable to stay here for long.
Xu Hei quickly withdrew from the area.
After dealing with the naless poison master, Xu Hei beca more cautious.
He was certain there must be stronger individuals secretly killing here; otherwise, he wouldn't have encountered no one. That poison master had only killed five people, which wouldn't cause such an effect.
However, with the Star-Moon Sword, Xu Hei feared no one.
On the contrary, he was currently broke and needed to kill and seize treasures to replenish his wealth. Especially after just tasting the benefits, this desire grew stronger in his heart.
"In that case, might as well fish for law enforcent and see what experts I can lure out."
Xu Hei's eyes flickered.
He no longer hid his presence, nor did he deliberately release his aura, just wandering around like an ordinary Elental Infant cultivator, searching for teorite fragnts.
And so, two hours passed.
Suddenly, a blood arrow shot from behind.
Finally, they're here! Xu Hei sidestepped, creating distance in an instant, only to see the blood arrow change direction, pursuing Xu Hei again, faster this ti.
The blood arrow carried overwhelming murderous intent, and being hit would have dire consequences.
"The opponent is strong."
As Xu Hei's thoughts turned, he decisively raised the Star-Moon Sword, blocking the blood arrow with a horizontal slash.
"Boom!!"
The blood arrow exploded, shattered by the Star-Moon Sword's edge, and Xu Hei, without stopping, charged in one direction, hand on the sword hilt.
"Hehe, impressive skills. I an no harm; how about we call it a day?"
A strange voice, both male and female, sounded, and a red figure erged from the mist ahead, with a flushed face, a sinister aura, and an androgynous appearance, smiling at the corner of their mouth.
It was the Heart-Devouring Demon, Xiong Yan.
"Call it a day?"
Xu Hei squinted his eyes; if he hadn't reacted quickly just now, being hit by that blood line would have ant death.
Unexpectedly, one of the main forces in breaking the Ancient Formation had survived and was still alive.
Xu Hei had intended to fish for a small fry to kill, but instead caught Xiong Yan, which put great pressure on him, yet his hands didn't stop moving.
"Summon Thunder!"
Xu Hei drew another Flying Sword, summoning lightning, and threw it, the sword transforming into a long lightning snake lunging at Xiong Yan.
"Stop, don't be ungrateful!"
A voice shouted angrily from the side, and a withered hand descended from the sky, pressing on the lightning Flying Sword, shattering it with a slap.
Xu Hei imdiately halted, turning to look to the side.
A pale figure approached from afar, with a skeletal body, a sinister aura, eyes glowing green, and emitting a corpse stench.
It was the Three Corpses Daoist, Gu Yunsong.
Two top experts from the outer battlefield were both here, neither dead.
Xu Hei didn't know how they escaped, but surviving the teorites ant their abilities far surpassed other cultivators.
"What do you want?" Xu Hei frowned.
"Nothing much, since you survived, it shows you have so skill. Ahead is a void area; co explore it with us!" Gu Yunsong said coldly.
"Don't be so crude; guests are guests, we should ask for their opinion."
Xiong Yan's voice was strange, alternating between male and female, extrely unpleasant.
Xu Hei certainly didn't believe their words; these two were notorious demonic path cultivators in the outer battlefield.
But if he dared refuse, they would likely kill him imdiately.
No wonder there were no cultivators here; they were either killed or taken by them.
"Xiong Yan, is this how you recruit people?"
A cold voice ca from the magma.
Another person appeared ahead, bearing a long sword, with a stern appearance and a blue robe, sowhat resembling Lin Tianhe, seemingly from the Tianhen Sword Sect, but clearly stronger.
This person exuded righteousness, with a heroic spirit, starkly different from the two demonic cultivators. He glanced at Xu Hei and said indifferently, "Follow ."
With that, he headed towards the depths of the magma.
Though his deanor and aura differed, it was still a commanding tone, showing his arrogance ingrained in his bones.
Because he believed Xu Hei would only follow him; with two demonic cultivators present, any normal cultivator would choose to follow him.
Xu Hei said nothing more, flying towards the depths of the magma.
This magma sea was vast, and as they delved deeper, the temperature rose, and the Spiritual Qi grew more violent, requiring constant True Essence protection to avoid harm.
To avoid revealing the strength of his Physical Body, Xu Hei also actively used True Essence to protect his body.
Before long, they reached the center of the magma sea, the impact center.
Xu Hei focused his gaze and was stunned.
Ahead lay a vast void area, with nothing there, and the space itself was shattered.
Even space was shattered, unable to be repaired; what kind of power was this?
More astonishingly, within this vast void world, a vortex released an attraction, leading who knows where.
No one dared to enter recklessly, as no one had seen such a situation before.
"This is..."
At the sight of this scene, Xu Hei's breath halted, thoughts racing, and a word sprang to mind: Void Realm!
This was the Void Realm from Huangfu Duanlong's mories!
The outer battlefield's Void Realm was a legendary place, its location and entry unknown.
It's said that within the Void Realm lies the secret to ascending to the upper realm, with countless treasures left by ascending cultivators. Even Huangfu Duanlong crafted a fifth-tier divine weapon and broke through the Divine Transformation Stage by entering the Void Realm.
"Void Realm, Void Realm! It's actually the entrance to the legendary Void Realm?"
Xu Hei's heart raced, but he maintained a calm exterior, showing a puzzled expression like the others.
Besides them, three other cultivators were present, all top experts to stand here.
"The Void Realm, according to Senior Huangfu, once inside, one loses their mory, so he didn't know what was inside," Xu Hei thought regretfully.
This was a gap in the mory inheritance; he didn't know how Huangfu Duanlong crafted the fifth-tier divine weapon.
But it was certain that the Void Realm was the greatest opportunity in the outer battlefield.
Entering once, as long as one survived, would yield abundant rewards.
However, the Void Realm was also perilous; last ti, Huangfu Duanlong and over a hundred others entered, but only nine survived.
No one rembered what happened inside, what dangers or taboos existed.
Xu Hei knew what this place was, but judging by the others' expressions, they seed clueless.
Xu Hei had no intention of explaining; as a rogue cultivator, the less he knew, the better.
