Merging with Demon Spirits
Chapter 597 - 430: Dumbstruck
As the black mist gradually dissipated, a pile of corpses appeared before us, and the atmosphere at the scene instantly became deathly silent, even the sound of breathing seemed to vanish.
All onlookers were dumbfounded, their expressions a fascinating sight.
Among the crowd, besides the adventurers who were originally there, there were also many who entered later.
They entered the Maple Forest with various different purposes.
But regardless of their purpose, this scene before them was completely different from the battle scenes they had imagined, worlds apart.
The gaze swept past the corpses in various poses of death, and urgent breaths continuously sounded.
At the Space Gate, human corpses were as common as demon beasts, nothing surprising, and with the strength and achievements of Lin Feng’s team, hunting ordinary experts was also nothing surprising.
But among the corpses in front of them were Spirit Kings, and moreover, some Apostles.
And not just one.
What was even more striking was that Lin Feng’s team was now gathered together, without a single casualty, most of them unscathed.
Clearly, this was a complete massacre.
"Can anyone tell me what exactly happened?"
"I don’t know either, with the Dark Night Star Mist covering everything, who could have seen anything."
"If I’m not mistaken, there are four Apostles among these people!"
"I counted, there should be five!"
The group of onlookers was visibly shocked and discussed intensely.
In the other-dimensional Space Gate, Lin Feng’s team had always had glorious achievements, but this time was different, this time it was at an eight-star level Space Gate, with enemies having King Level strength, but even so, they were all slain.
Apostles.
And five of them actually died at once!
As the spokespersons for the Celestial Kings, Apostles all have King Level strength, each with their own trump cards, and given the deterrent power of the Pure Land Organization, ordinary factions wouldn’t dare to touch them.
Even an Emperor wouldn’t kill an Apostle unless necessary.
Hence, Apostles would not easily fall.
But this time, five Apostles fell simultaneously, one can imagine how great of a sensation this news would cause once spread.
What truly shocked people was that those who killed them were actually Lin Feng’s team!
A team whose average strength hadn’t even reached Seventh Grade, without a single King among them.
Amidst the exclamations, Yang Qing looked at Lin Feng, whose clothes were stained with blood, with a calm expression and complex emotions in his gaze, mostly filled with disbelief.
He had initially wanted to rescue Lin Feng to repay the favor.
But he never thought he would witness such an unbelievable scene.
"Has he grown to this point already?"
Yang Qing muttered to himself softly.
He didn’t know what Lin Feng’s current strength was, but he could be sure it was definitely not as simple as what appeared on the surface.
If he could even slay Apostles, then in the Maple Forest, he was also no match for him.
At this moment, the proud Yang Qing couldn’t help but feel a bit dejected.
Although he knew that it was in the other-dimensional Space Gate where strength was suppressed, leading to this outcome.
But knowing Lin Feng and others were still so young, give them some time to develop, who knows what heights they might reach in the future?
"Are young people these days so exaggerated?"
Zhan Xing, standing beside, looked a bit confused.
If in the Land of Chaos Lin Feng’s team could easily slay Kings due to suppressive force, then at the eight-star level Space Gate, the suppressive force wasn’t too strong, the Martial King could use Soul Soldiers, the Spirit King could summon Life Souls, how could they be slain so easily?
Or rather, be massacred!
What exactly happened in the black mist?
Why didn’t a single person escape?
At this moment, Zhan Xing started to doubt life.
His gaze swept over Lin Feng’s team and finally settled on his nephew, Zhan Tianyu.
As the grandson of the Clan Leader, Zhan Tianyu had always been talented and arrogant since childhood.
After refining the Six-armed Celestial Demon at eighteen, he became somewhat arrogant, but since joining Lin Feng’s team, some changes did occur, he matured somewhat, his aura also became stronger, but thinking that he already had achievements in hunting Kings and even Apostles, Zhan Xing still couldn’t believe it. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
These achievements were more dazzling than his!
He was already a King, while Zhan Tianyu had just stepped into Sixth Grade.
Many didn’t believe the scene before them, but the fact was right in front of them, they had no choice but to believe it.
Among the onlookers, many eyes subtly showed a hint of relief.
They came in here, besides to watch the excitement, some also had ideas of taking advantage of the chaos.
The bounty on Lin Feng’s team was just too tempting, kill one person, and you’d have enough resources for life, many had these thoughts, but at this moment, faced with the deterrence of so many corpses, only relief remained.
Lin Feng had by now exited the Demon Transformation state and Gigantification, holding the Celestial Punishment Sword, he glanced around slightly, his eyes carrying a hint of iciness.
Soon, Lin Feng withdrew his gaze and looked down at the Celestial Punishment Sword in his hand.
The Celestial Punishment Sword had undergone significant changes, the cracks that lined the blade had mostly disappeared, the bloodthirsty and evil aura became more intense, a wisp of red mist lingered on the sword, carrying a hint of poignant beauty.
Lin Feng glanced around, the Red Umbrella had disappeared, seemingly swallowed by the Celestial Punishment Sword.
Lin Feng looked at his teammates beside him, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
The plan went very smoothly.
The harvest this time was also substantial.
By leveraging the power of feeding back, originally an Eighth Grade Grandmaster Realm, he had now stepped into the Ninth Grade Lingyun Realm.
The strength of Nightmare was unknown, but the Dragon Fish also evolved to the eighth tier.
In just one hour of hunting, at least three years of cultivation time were saved.
Because there were many onlookers, Lin Feng didn’t inquire about his teammates’ strength.
"There probably won’t be such an opportunity again in the future."
Lin Feng thought to himself silently.
With this lesson, in the next trip to the other-dimensional Space Gate, no Kings should dare face them.
And as their strength grows, the feedback power would become slower and slower in enhancing their abilities.
This was also why Lin Feng had to participate in the King Becoming Plan.
Relying solely on the power of sacrifice, unless sacrificing an Emperor, it wouldn’t be possible for them to break through to King Level rapidly.
And killing an Emperor was unrealistic, just a thought.
Even if they were Kings, if not in the Maple Forest, without the suppression of strength, they couldn’t possibly hunt them, might even be easily slaughtered by Apostles.
If outside the Space Gate, three Apostles would easily hunt them down.
As Lin Feng looked around, the crowd of onlookers whispered.
"Such fierce eyes!"
"Even I feel pressured, incredible!"
"I also feel a bit of pressure, perhaps the achievements are just too immense!"
For some reason, at this moment, Lin Feng, who was only Sixth Grade, made them feel oppressed.
To know many among them were already Ninth Grade, even reached King Level.
"Too young, the strength is a bit lacking, otherwise could join the King Becoming Plan."
"Yeah, but even a few years later would be fine."
"Do you think there are so many resources? Even if hosted by countries worldwide, perhaps only this edition."
"Hmm, the resources for the first edition would definitely be the most."
Someone’s tone revealed a sense of pity.
If they could join the King Becoming Plan and become Kings, with the talent of Lin Feng’s team, even general Emperors might need to avoid their edge.
"Tidy up."
Lin Feng said, and soon a group began searching the bodies.
The Apostles’ bodies held many good things, they couldn’t be wasted.
In front of over a hundred onlookers, Lin Feng’s team began to search the corpses.
The Spirit King’s fall would cause the Life Soul to vanish along with it.
While a Martial King’s fall wouldn’t cause the Soul Soldiers to vanish, three Soul Soldiers were undoubtedly the biggest haul.
With simple tidying, without checking the haul meticulously, Lin Feng’s team soon vanished from the people’s sight.
This time, no one dared to follow.
As the onlookers gradually disbanded, the news of this battle spread thoroughly, and those who were eagerly anticipating the news were, upon hearing it, besides delighted, also incredulous.
In just half an hour, like a tidal wave, the news spread worldwide.
The data on Lin Feng’s team appeared on the radar of major organizations for the first time.
This time, no one dared to underestimate this team without a single King.
