Chapter 411: Chapter 215: Who Gave You the Nerve? Exploring Black Lake (Part 2)

But a flash of golden light struck, immediately killing him on the lake surface, his Divine Soul shattered on the spot.

Pei Shinan made his move!

He is not one to be bound by outdated principles like not using power to oppress the weak. Such talk is mere hearsay. If you underestimate Pei Shinan, you won’t even know how you died.

Moreover, no one shall escape; not a single one of these Flood Dragons can be spared.

He acted, no longer bothering with any restraint, several beams of golden light shot down, killing off a few more Demon Monarchs, allowing the Demon Suppression Bureau to completely gain the upper hand, before he refrained from further action.

It’s not that he feared anything, but he could not monopolize all the kills; some achievements had to be left for the soldiers below, or how would his subordinates survive if he hogged all the credit?

"Kill!"

On the Human Race’s side, excitement surged as if they were fueled by adrenaline. They had already witnessed Wei Fan suppress and kill Qi Zhicun, and now seeing him easily eliminate the Black Lake Jiao Venerable, their battle intent soared.

With such a person in charge, what is there to fear from Demon Fiends?

Besides, Pei Shinan had also slain a few Demon Monarchs, leading the Human Race to quickly launch a one-sided slaughter against the Demon Fiends.

"The bloodline is indeed peculiar, as if some potential is being suppressed, unable to be unleashed!"

With Pei Shinan and Ji Qingyue present, Wei Fan didn’t concern himself with the battlefield situation.

One hand holding the sealed Black Lake Jiao Venerable, his Heart Spirit delved into the Jiao Venerable’s body for research. Indeed, within this race’s body, there is something peculiar suppressing their development.

Attempting to unravel it with Will Power, he discovered his will could not even touch this power, as if it was a more advanced power than he currently possessed, beyond his reach.

"Let’s first extinguish the consciousness of the Black Lake Jiao Venerable!"

After researching for a moment with no results, Wei Fan decided to first eliminate the consciousness of the Black Lake Jiao Venerable.

His will entered the Primordial Spirit of the Black Lake Jiao Venerable, transforming into a sharp weapon, swiftly erasing the Jiao Venerable’s Primordial Spirit, leaving a complete corpse.

[Slain Black Lake Jiao Venerable, gained 20,000 years of Ordinary Power, 40 years of Golden Body Power]

[Ordinary Power: 87,000 years]

[Golden Body Power: 510 years]

"Stop!"

Suddenly, a booming shout came, and Wei Fan withdrew his Heart Spirit from the Black Lake Jiao Venerable’s corpse.

Looking over, a man with a jade-like face approached through the air, face sullen: "How dare you kill the Jiao Venerable, who gave you the guts!"

"And you all, stop for me!"

Upon hearing this, many people paused their actions to look towards the suddenly appeared man.

Arrogantly commanding everyone, with condescending tone towards Wei Fan, caused many to show uncertainty and suspicion.

In Wei Fan’s hand, still hung the over-a-zhang-long Black Lake Jiao Venerable’s corpse. Anyone with a functioning brain would not dare speak to Wei Fan like this in such circumstances.

Moreover, not only Wei Fan, but he also commanded the tens of thousands in the Demon Suppression Bureau army.

[Bai Mingyuan: Early-stage Spirit Condensation, Master of Nine Bends Mountain, Disciple of the Profound Crane Sect]

[Killing will yield 5000 years of Ordinary Power]

The information of this man flashed before Wei Fan.

The Master of Nine Bends Mountain, though unfamiliar, he had heard Huo Tianzheng mention, was a disciple of the Demon Demon Saint Sect.

Back then, he had wanted to eliminate this guy but was blocked by Huo Tianzheng.

"And who gave you the guts to talk to me, Wei Fan, like that, just a trifling Condensed Spirit Demon Monarch, daring to order me?"

Wei Fan’s indifferent eyes glanced over, causing Bai Mingyuan to shiver with coldness: "You are Wei Fan?"

Bai Mingyuan’s pupils shrank, the notorious name of Wei Fan, not just humans but even Demon Fiends feared.

In the next moment, he screamed in dismay: "Don’t..."

Boom!

With a casual slap, Wei Fan exploded Bai Mingyuan mid-air.

A mere Condensed Spirit Demon Monarch, daring to stand before him and ask who gave him the guts; whoever gave it, it’s not as bold as this, questioning a martial artist of the Human Race as a Condensed Spirit Demon Monarch.

In the air, countless feathers burst out; Bai Mingyuan’s true form should be a bird species.

"..."

Watching the feathers scatter across the sky, even Pei Shinan remained silent.

Wei Fan and Bai Mingyuan, one daring to scold Wei Fan as a Killer God with just Condensed Spirit Demon Monarch cultivation, the other daring to kill even a Holy Sect disciple like Bai Mingyuan. Pei Shinan couldn’t discern whose courage was greater.

Several hours later, the earth-shaking battle cries vanished, leaving behind a field of corpses from the Black Lake Demon Race, with only some low-level Demon Fiends escaping, all Nascent Soul and Spirit Concentration levels were completely annihilated, the blood dyeing the black lake water red.

Countless Demon Fiend corpses were gathered, piled into several mountains.

This was still only those initial and True Realm Demon Fiends who only extracted Demon Pouches, leaving the corpses; otherwise, there would be even more.

Pei Shinan extended an invitation: "Interested in exploring this Black Lake?"

Wei Fan nodded.

This Black Lake is incredibly peculiar, continually emitting a terrifying cold, with frost all over the shore, a place he had never seen before.

Ji Qingyue was also interested here, and the three flew to the lake’s center and dived in; immediately they were enveloped in darkness, seemingly isolating even light; upon entering the water surface, no light was present.

Pei Shinan activated his Golden Body, creating some light.

Initially, the low temperature here was nothing for Martial Venerables like them, but as they descended to a hundred meters deep, Wei Fan still felt no chill, yet Pei Shinan’s Golden Body had accumulated a thick frost.

Descending another hundred meters, Pei Shinan clearly indicated he could not withstand it and began to float towards the surface.

At this point, Wei Fan also began feeling some chill, extending his Power of Heart and Spirit to scan, he too felt a chill penetrating into his head, as if trying to freeze his Primordial Spirit; even the Heart Spirit detected nothing useful, seeing only darkness in his mind.

Another hundred meters down and even Ji Qingyue couldn’t bear it, large chunks of ice forming on her body, shivering.

She too floated towards the lake surface, leaving Wei Fan to continue alone.

At this moment, Wei Fan also somewhat wanted to give up, his Heart Spirit unable to scan anything; even if he reached the lake bottom, the Black Lake was so vast that finding Treasures would be difficult, needing days and nights to explore.

"The chill seems to emanate from a specific location!"

Descending three hundred meters further, reaching the lake bottom, even Wei Fan’s Seven-Colored Golden Body showed signs of freezing.

No matter how heated his Qi Blood was, his body still was cloaked in frost.

There was some gain, though; after long-term sensing with his Power of Heart and Spirit, he discovered the chill of the Black Lake was not embedded in the water, but emitted from a certain spot, having a fixed point.

He attempted to approach the source of the chill but quickly felt as if his Golden Body was about to crack. Though he could deploy the Human King Bell, the Power of Heart and Spirit could not be protected by it, rendering him blind.

"Cannot continue approaching!"

Simultaneously, his Spiritual Sense warned him of danger if he continued.

"Looks like I can only explore this place once my cultivation is stronger in the future!"

He didn’t know if there were any Treasures ahead, so risking it was out of the question. Contemplating this, he too floated towards the surface.

"Any discoveries?"

On the lake surface, Pei Shinan and Ji Qingyue awaited him. Hearing this, Wei Fan briefly explained his findings, and the three flew towards the shore.

"Great Victory! Return to the city!"

Upon reaching the shore, Pei Shinan waved grandly, leading the army back. As for the Black Lake Demon Race’s territory, the pervasive chill made it unsuitable for ordinary human habitation, lacking in occupation value even after capture.

Moreover, a stronger Demon Venerable still lingered near the Black Lake than the Jiao Venerable, with Tongzhou lacking the confidence to confront the other; coupled with Great Victory Dynasty’s similar attitudes towards Zhang Juzheng and others, not only did Long Jianying and others lose their ambitions to expand territory, even Pei Shinan was disheartened.

Now, his and Long Jianying’s thoughts aligned: to guard their current territory, preventing people under their protection from demon predation; expanding territories, whoever wants to do it can do it!

Nascent Soul Demon Fiend corpses were loaded onto carts, transported to the city, while serpent-like Flood Dragon corpses were personally lifted by commanders like You Qingfeng, using Will Power to transport them to Tongzhou City.
