Chapter 123 Spirit Realm
Chapter 123 Spirit Realm
The sky was hazy, with no sun, moon, or stars, only a thick layer of gray clouds.
The land was barren, devoid of trees and any other plants, consisting only of bare rocks and sand.
The air was filled with a putrid stench, the distinctive smell of insects, which made one want to vomit.
This is the spirit world. The small world behind the spatial rift, independent of the main world, is a world of its own.
Some spirit worlds are paradises, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, brimming with spiritual energy, and overflowing with rare and precious materials.
Some spirit realms are hells, teeming with poisonous insects, roaming with ferocious beasts, and barren of everything. This spirit realm is clearly the latter.
Ye Feng's spiritual power spread out, covering an area of several miles in radius.
Then his brow furrowed. The place was teeming with insects, big and small, swarming everywhere.
They are eating.
They don't eat food; they eat their own kind. It's survival of the fittest, the law of life and death.
Ye Feng squatted down and reached out to touch the rocks on the ground.
Further away, there is a hill. The outline of the hill is still there, but the hill is full of caves.
It wasn't formed naturally; it was created by insects gnawing at it. This spirit realm has been completely devoured by insects.
Plants, animals, minerals—everything edible has been eaten.
However, there were also unexpected discoveries.
Ye Feng picked up a fist-sized piece of ore and weighed it in his hand.
Crimson Blood Black Gold is a high-grade spirit-level refining material that can be used to forge high-grade spirit-level offensive weapons.
In the auction houses of Great Xia, such a large piece of Crimson Blood Black Gold would be worth at least several million.
He put the ore into his spatial ring and continued walking forward.
All over the place.
Crimson Blood Black Gold, Netherworld Cold Iron, Star Meteorite Iron, Void Crystal, Phoenix Blood Jade, Dragon Scale Gold, Mysterious Ice Marrow, Nine Netherworld Copper.
Ye Feng walked by, picking them up along the way.
They are all good stuff, all top-quality materials.
Although this spirit world has been emptied by insects, they only digest organic matter and ordinary minerals.
These top-grade refining materials are indigestible for insects.
The materials in the spatial ring kept piling up.
Ye Feng picked up items as he walked, as if he were browsing a free supermarket.
"Haicheng has turned misfortune into blessing; it's about to prosper," Ye Feng murmured.
The value of these spiritual materials is conservatively estimated at several hundred billion.
Just as he was about to pick up a few more pieces of ore, the insects spotted him.
It wasn't just one or two, but an overwhelming horde. They surged in from all directions, from the ground, the sky, and even emerging from underground, completely surrounding Ye Feng.
Ye Feng looked at the insects swarming towards him, grinned, and revealed a set of white teeth.
"Heh, all kill points. Can't wait to come and die?"
With a thought, twelve high-grade spirit-level telekinetic throwing knives flew out and hovered around Ye Feng.
The spirit array on the blade shimmered with a pale golden light.
The throwing knife is so fast that it is almost impossible to see with the naked eye.
They moved through the swarm of insects, taking the lives of more than a dozen insects with each movement.
There were so many insects that Ye Feng didn't need to aim at all; the throwing knife could hit the target no matter which direction it flew.
Ye Feng continued killing as he moved forward.
He didn't want to waste time here; the source of the insect swarm was the mother nest, and he had to find it.
Once the Queen Mother is killed, these insects will be leaderless and no longer a threat.
The throwing knife moved faster and faster through the swarm of insects.
Ye Feng became increasingly skilled at controlling the newly forged throwing knives, and his killing speed increased accordingly.
[Ding! Killed a Tier 2 Zerg, gaining 50 kill points!]
[Ding! Killed a Tier 3 Zerg, gaining 100 kill points!]
[Ding! Killed a Tier 4 Zerg, gaining 1000 kill points!]
[Ding! Killed a Tier 5 Zerg, gaining 5000 kill points!]
The kill count is rising rapidly.
Thirty thousand!
fifty thousand!
Eighty thousand!
100,000!
Unbeknownst to him, Ye Feng had already killed tens of thousands of insects and was still going deeper.
The insects began to feel fear.
They are intelligent, not highly intelligent, but intelligent enough to understand one thing.
That person in front is someone you shouldn't mess with.
But Ye Feng had no intention of letting them go, and continued forward, reaping them with his throwing knives.
After killing hundreds of thousands of insects, he finally arrived at the deepest part of the spirit world.
Ahead was a huge cave, tens of meters wide and more than ten meters high, with piles of bones at the entrance, including those of strange beasts and humans.
Ye Feng's eyes turned cold as he stepped into the cave.
Deep inside the cave, a huge insect was laying its eggs on the ground.
It was several times larger than any insectoid creature I had ever seen before, its body like a small mountain, its abdomen bulging high, constantly releasing eggs.
Each of those eggs was the size of a washbasin, covered with a transparent membrane, and the developing larvae inside could be clearly seen.
The Zerg Queen.
Half a step into the seventh tier.
What truly made Ye Feng stop was not the Queen Mother, but the thing on her back.
It was a monster with a human head and a worm's body.
It resembled a giant beetle, its six legs tightly gripping the queen's back. Its upper body was humanoid, while its lower body was fused with the beetle, and it was mating with the queen.
The owner of that face saw Ye Feng.
"Ye Feng! It's you again! You ruined my plans!"
The voice was sharp and piercing, filled with deep-seated hatred.
Ye Feng tilted his head, carefully examined the distorted face, and finally remembered.
Li Mo.
The eldest son of the Li family who took away his guaranteed admission spot at Wuhan University.
Li Mo, who became a half-demon in the Heavenly Demon Clan's Devouring Array.
Li Mo, who eventually turned into a rat and escaped.
"Li Mo?" Ye Feng raised an eyebrow. "Didn't you become Miss Li? How come you're back to normal?"
Li Mo's face contorted even more violently.
He was so angry about it that his teeth itched.
He was once killed by Ye Feng after transforming into a half-demon.
The only way to escape is to use the Heavenly Demon Secret Technique to turn into a rat and run away.
In order to make a comeback, he found this spirit world and this Queen Mother.
He abandoned his human dignity, turning himself into this inhuman, ghostly figure, and mating with his mother every day.
He just wanted to gain the power to kill Ye Feng.
Even now that Ye Feng is in front of him, he still can't beat him.
He sacrificed so much to become stronger, giving up everything, all so that one day he could kill Ye Feng.
"Kill him!" Li Mo roared hoarsely, "Kill him!"
The Queen Mother let out a sharp screech.
Deep within the cave, several enormous insects emerged from the darkness. Blade Warriors.
Their mother's personal guards, half-step into the seventh rank.
Their carapaces are jet black, and their forelimbs are two enormous scythes with sharp, serrated edges.
They move incredibly fast, leaving afterimages in the air.
The scythe slashed towards Ye Feng, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound that tore through the air.
Ye Feng didn't even move.
With a thought, seventy-two sacred flying knives, "Swallowing the Stars," flew out.
This is his trump card: a Saint-grade psychic weapon, far superior to any Spirit-grade weapon.
Seventy-two throwing knives hovered and converged above his head, combining to form a giant blade of light.
A powerful strike is about to be launched.
Three thousand charges were poured into this single strike.
A ninety-fold increase in power.
The light blade slashed down.
Those Blade Warriors, who were half-step seventh rank, didn't even have time to scream before their carcasses, flesh, internal organs, and bones were all devoured by the light blades.
The Blade Runner's body vanished from the world like pencil marks erased by an eraser.
[Ding! Killed a near-Tier 7 Zergling—Blade Warrior, gaining 30000 Kill Points!]
[Ding! Killed a near-Tier 7 Zergling—Blade Warrior, gaining 30000 Kill Points!]
Li Mo stared wide-eyed at this scene.
"Why is it so powerful?"
