Chapter 784: Traces of Human Beings

Yu Ji frowned. “How were three of us killed so quickly?”

Yes, two of them were killed by Han Fei, and he didn’t know who killed the last one.

The situation was very chaotic with all the noises and explosions. Nobody could see anything either. Who could tell who killed whom?

The other six teammates were all silent. They would be stupid if they confessed that they accidentally killed their partners, or they would be punished after they returned to the Ten Thousand Demon Valley even if they got out of this place alive. The source of this content is ɴovel(F)ɪre

Suddenly, an indifferent voice said, “Can we stop chit chatting? There are still three Hundred-Year Tree Demons.”

It was exactly Han Fei who talked. At this moment, Han Fei seemed absolutely unconcerned about who was alive and who was dead. He looked as if everybody owed him plenty of money.

Everybody shivered. “Where are they?”

Han Fei pointed his harpoon. “There, there and there...”

The Hundred-Year Tree Demons that Han Fei pointed out instantly plucked their roots and started running, having no idea when they were exposed.

However, how could they run faster than Yu Hun and the others who were infuriated?

After only a hundred seconds, the three Hundred-Year Tree Demons were chopped into pieces, although it was quite unfortunate that no demonic stings were found.

Without the Hundred-Year Tree Demons and the Thousand-Year Tree Demon, all the vines retreated, and the place was back to peace.

Han Fei landed on the bottom of the sea. He cut a lot of Purple Vine Thymes with his harpoon and stuffed them in his Sea Swallowing Seashell.

Yu Ji frowned. “Yu Fei, what are you doing?”

Yu Hun also asked, “Why are you cutting those worthless leaves?”

Han Fei replied without raising his head, “They’re refreshing and can keep my head clear. Also, they taste good.”

Everyone: “???”

They taste good? We’ve just been through a life-and-death battle, and you’re telling me that those leaves taste good?

Yu Ji frowned. “Yu Fei, how did you locate the Thousand-Year Tree Demon and the Hundred-Year Tree Demons?”

Hearing Yu Ji’s question, Yu Hun also asked Han Fei, “You weren’t caught in illusions just now? What did you see?”

Han Fei shook his head. “I didn’t see anything just now.”

Yu Ji paused. “Then how did you...”

Han Fei pointed at the Purple Vine Thymes and said, “I was almost tied up by them. Then, I bit off one of them and found that their leaves were refreshing. After that, I found a flaw in the illusions. From where the vines came, the spiritual energy was too concentrated. I tried attacking there and found them.”

Yu Ying interjected, “How can you see the density of spiritual energy?”

Han Fei pretended to be surprised. “You can’t see it? Isn’t it a necessary skill for a sea creature to survive?” Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\

Everyone: “...”

Yu Ying was lost for words. Who told you that seeing the concentration of spiritual energy is a necessary skill for survival? Why have I never heard about it?

Yu Ji was silent. “Is this what legendary creatures are like?”

Yu Hun was no longer mad at Han Fei. He even praised him. “Good thing that you executed the Thousand-Year Tree Demon in time, or I may have lost my head.”

Han Fei secretly sneered. If the Thousand-Year Tree Demon hadn’t been so treacherous or removed the illusions as fast, I would’ve cut you into pieces.

But now that the crisis was over, Han Fei was not anxious. Only six of the eleven explorers were left after only six hours. There was plenty of time. Han Fei loved a chaotic environment best.

Yu Ji sighed. “What happened has already happened. It was quite exhausting. Now that it’s over, I suggest that we take a break.”

Yu Hun nodded. “You’re right. We must reflect on our mistake too and don’t be too greedy.”

Han Fei ignored them and began to cut the thyme leaves. After he cut a bunch of them, he threw some of them to the spiritual spring in Forge the Universe, planning to nurture them there.

Those thyme leaves were really good stuff! They could even suppress Little Black’s aggression. He could keep one of them in his mouth in his battles in the future to keep his head clear.

After cutting the thyme for a while, Han Fei discovered that Yu Da, who was also the only guy that didn’t have a Semi-Divine Weapon, was cutting the thyme leaves too.

Han Fei suddenly rose and stopped cutting.

Yu Da grimaced. “I’ve already used my Immortal Seal. If I die another time, I’ll be a goner. I have to keep my head clear too.”

Han Fei nodded and thought to himself, Do you think you’re me? If you’re caught in another illusion like this one, you’ll only die faster if your head is clear, moron.

Suddenly, Han Fei detected a long bar underneath the bottom of the sea.

Instantly, Han Fei stopped cutting and started digging.

Everyone: “???”

Yu Ying asked, “Yu Fei, why are you digging right now?”

Han Fei said coldly, “Observing the environment all the time and detecting underground treasures is a necessary skill for a sea creature to survive.”

Instantly, everybody’s face was darkened. Another necessary skill? How many necessary skills do you have?

However, Yu Bing leaned close to him and asked, “Are you saying that there’s treasure down below?”

Han Fei said coldly, “It’s mine.”

Instantly, everybody unleashed their senses, only to detect a long bar some ten meters into the soil at the bottom of the sea.

Unfortunately, there was only one.

They found it inappropriate to compete with Han Fei at this moment. After all, Han Fei just killed the Thousand-Year Tree Demon and saved them.

A moment later, a fruit that was as red as a carrot with six long tails appeared.

Intense spiritual energy was spreading out on the fruit. Everybody’s eyes glittered as it was a good treasure.

Information popped up in Han Fei’s eyes.

<Name> Six-Tailed Mystic Ginseng

<Introduction> It grows among the Purple Vine Thyme and absorbs the essence of seaweeds. It contains abundant energy and can enhance senses and spiritual power.

<Level> Demon Level

<Quality> Ultra

<Spiritual Energy> 498,000 points

<Effect> It can increase a significant amount of spiritual fruit and ten percent of spiritual power when eaten directly. Doesn’t not work for creatures above the Hidden Fisher level. You cannot improve your spiritual power by eating other fruits in another a hundred days. It cannot be eaten repeatedly.

This was a rare treasure!

Han Fei was delighted. It was even better than the Sunflower Fruit that he saw! It had abundant spiritual energy and was perfect for breakthroughs.

Sensing that he used a lot of spiritual energy just now, Han Fei simply tore off a tail and put it in his mouth.

Everyone: “???”

Yu Ji exclaimed, “You’re eating it just like that?”

“Are you not afraid it’s poisonous?”

Yu Hun added, “Do you even know the effect of that? Even I don’t recognize it, and you’re eating it?”

Han Fei said casually, “Telling if a spiritual fruit is poisonous is...”

Everybody else said at the same time, “... Is a necessary skill for a sea creature to survive?”

Yu Ying rolled her eyes. “Can you say something else?”

After a brief stun, Han Fei nodded and said, “You’re right. You’re all fast learners.”

Everyone: “...”

Another hour passed. No other sea demons came. Obviously, the previous Demon Shrill didn’t attract anyone, which meant that they were the only team, or rather, the only half-team, in a radius of three hundred kilometers.

Yu Hun rose solemnly. “Let’s continue the exploration, but we must not be reckless. Yu Fei, if we’re ever in a similar situation, you’ll—you’ll check it first with your necessary skills and confirm that everything it’s fine before we do anything.”

Yu Hun was good at fighting, but he had no idea about those necessary skills of survival. Well, he did know a thing or two about that, or he would’ve died long ago. It’s just that he had never been to such a weird place before.

Han Fei accepted the request and said to himself, I’m going to let you die first if we’re caught in danger.

After they rose, everybody proposed that they return to the forest of giant algae, which seemed much safer than the place with the Purple Vine Thyme that had claimed the lives of five of their partners so easily.

After half a day of swimming, Han Fei didn’t find any opportunity to attack them, but he did find many spiritual fruits and other treasures. Almost everybody got three spiritual fruits.

They killed twenty Hundred-Year Tree Demons. Han Fei didn’t have to do anything at all. Yu Hun and others, who hated the Tree Demons’ guts, killed them without showing any mercy.

For some reason, Han Fei seemed to have become the new captain of the team. He seemed even more respected than Yu Hun was.

At this moment, Yu Da mumbled, “How big is this place? We’ve walked for such a long time, but we haven’t met a single human being...”

Suddenly, Han Fei detected a ruined place forty kilometers away where a great battle seemed to have just happened.

Han Fei quietly swam in that direction. When they were twenty kilometers away, Yu Hun roared, “Follow me! I found something!”

A moment later, everybody stood on an area of ruins that was full of severed leaves and marks of knives and swords. There was also a terrifying fist mark, and whatever left of a Thousand-Year Tree Demon lay in the pit that was caused by the punch.

Han Fei found the shape and feeling of the fist mark surprisingly familiar.

Huh? The fist mark of the Cao family? Is Cao Qiu here?
