Chapter 1039: Accumulating Energy
Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins
Fu Wei and Xia Xin Yan approached the deep hole immediately. They craned their necks to look.
After a while, the fluctuating energy from the hole ceased. A figure soared up into the sky. He looked high-spirited as his Blood Qi was abundant.
In his black fighting suit, his lean, muscular body was exposed. His eyes were like diamonds with earth-shaking power.
Xia Xin Yan exhaled in relief, parting her lips into a smile. "Are you all right?"
Fu Wei also looked at him.
"Best condition ever," Shi Yan laughed brightly.
The battle on life star number 9 had taken all the energy in his body to drive a wisp of Soul Consciousness coming from a deep place in the mysterious galaxy, which had killed Cocker and the Dark Shadow warriors and overturned the situation. After that, Shi Yan was hurt while Immortal Demon Blood in his body was used up.
However, the Essence Qi of Cocker after he was killed had filled Shi Yan's acupuncture points, making up for the loss that he had suffered.
The energy of an Incipient God Realm expert was extreme, indeed. If Shi Yan hadn't been about to reach Ethereal God Realm, it wouldn't have been just that simple backlash. Perhaps, his acupuncture points would have exploded, leading to a body eruption.
After three months of strenuous digestion, he had absorbed all the energy generated from Cocker's death, which had expanded his Essence Qi Ancient Tree to the upper limit of First Sky of Ethereal God Realm and also helped him condense almost one thousand drops of Immortal Demon Blood. Compared to himself three months ago, he didn't lose a bit of energy. Quite the contrary, his energy had rocketed to new heights!
Unfortunately, he hadn't deciphered the mysteries of the Ethereal Extent yet. Otherwise, when his realm was more stable, he could have broken through directly to Second Sky of Ethereal God Realm.
"Can you tell us about the Ancient Demogorgon phantom that had appeared out of nowhere? What happened after all?" Fu Wei hesitated for a while before she decided to probe.
It has been three months and this doubt was still lingering in her mind. She could die to know why. She had made a lot of assumptions but none of them could approach the truth.
Xia Xin Yan understood Shi Yan's situation more than Fu Wei, but still, she didn't know about the phantom of the Ancient Demogorgon. She didn't know what kind of God it was.
"The inheritance I got has been battling with the God Clan for tens of thousands of years. The Ancient Demogorgon that appeared in life star number 9 was controlled by the soul of a precursor of mine. That's how it got such invincible power." Shi Yan pondered for a while, his face stern. "Once the Dark Shadow Clan knows about my existence, I will become the must-kill target that the God Clan won't hesitate to eradicate at any cost. My precursor worried that I would be exposed before I'm strong enough. Thus, he killed Cocker and all of the warriors of the Dark Shadow Clan. And he didn't spare your fellows."
Xia Xin Yan and Fu Wei exchanged looks, their faces bitter.
To prevent Shi Yan's identity from being exposed, that man didn't hesitate to kill almost ten thousand warriors. He didn't spare their subordinates, either. Which level of ruthlessness this expert has?
However, they couldn't blame Shi Yan.
At the moment Cocker came, he had used his power at Incipient God Realm to take the upper hand. Without the help of that precursor, these two women could have been killed, too.
They were still alive. They had to thank that mysterious expert. But they couldn't be happy...
"Precursor Feng Yan has been trying to contact me... Zha Duo also sends Fu Wei messages after several days. We cut them off deliberately. But now, what do you want us to tell them?" Xia Xin Yan rubbed her porcelain forehead as if she had a headache. "The commotion your precursor had caused in life star number 9 was too big. Forces around Shadow Ghostly Prison do have concerns. We have to give them an explanation, anyway."
"Just tell them that it was a Third Sky of Incipient God Realm precursor who has a deep grudge against the Dark Shadow Clan This person suddenly came and massacred people." Shi Yan had a plan, so he told them without any hesitation. "Tell them that precursor found out that Dark Shadow Clan and God Clan have a conspiracy. They will invade Agate Star Area. After he killed Dark Shadow clansmen, he captured us and took us away. He told us the evil plan of Dark Shadow Clan and God Clan. Oh right, don't forget about Great Elder Zuo Lou of Potion and Tool Pavilion. Tell them that precursor wanted us to inform every force in Agate Star Area about this."
"How about the dead warriors of Potion and Tool Pavilion and Windstorm War Department?" sighed Fu Wei.
"Simple. Cocker of Dark Shadow Clan and Du Lin of Ghost Mark Clan had killed them all," Shi Yan said deliberately.
"Yeah, only that way," Xia Xin Yan wore a reluctant complexion. Suddenly, she glared at him angrily. "My Windstorm War Department has lost one-third of its members. You irritate me!"
Hearing her mentioning this, Fu Wei felt sorrowful, looking at him with bitterness and regret.
Shi Yan felt awkward. He just smiled and said nothing more.
"Can we contact the others now?" asked Xia Xin Yan irritatedly.
"Yeah, no problem, no problem," Shi Yan forced a smile.
Xia Xin Yan and Fu Wei immediately took out their Sound Stones.
Shi Yan pondered then furrowed his brows. He also sat down like the two women, closing his eyes. A scarlet drop of blood appeared on his fingertip.
----------------------------
Fighting League.
Feng Yan was shouting at the warriors of her Windstorm War Department with a cold face. She was startled all of a sudden, waving her hand to signal the others to stop talking. She took the Sound Stone from her sleeve, listening attentively.
After a while, Feng Yan's eyes brightened. She hurried to go to the God of War temple to meet Hegemon Feng Han.
In life star number 9, Bettina and Zha Duo were talking to an expert from the Wood Clan.
Great Elder Zuo Lou had his hysteria which made Bettina and Zha Duo increase their powers. Three months ago, they contacted the Wood Clan, the force that was close to them, and asked them to send over experts.
At this moment, life star number 9 wasn't weak anymore as it had more experts.
Zha Duo was shaken as he said, "We got the news!"
In the dark galaxy by a group of dead stars of Shadow Ghostly Prison, battleships of Demon Clan and Monster Clan were scattering, searching through the dead stars.
Atop a battleship sat Blood Devil. His mind flickered when his eyes radiated strange light. He smiled, yelling, "Found him!"
Battleships of Monster Clan and Demon Clan gathered quickly, heading in a fixed generation.
On a meteorite by Shadow Ghostly Prison, Fei Lan, Leona, Ka Tuo, Benny, Zuo Shi, and Xuan Ming were sitting cross-legged, their eyes gloomy. It has been three months since the earth-shaking commotion in life star number 9 had happened. Even the wandering visitors like them got the news. They were so worried about Shi Yan. They didn't know whether Shi Yan had survived or not.
Ka Tuo suddenly got up, looking here and there. He screamed happily, "Senior calls for us!"
-----------------------
Seven days later.
The dead star where Shi Yan, Xia Xin Yan, and Fu Wei were staying welcomed the first wave of guests, which was a fleet of almost one thousand battleships of Monster Clan and Demon Clan.
Chuckling, Shi Yan relaxed his tense mind, Looking at the battleships approaching, he suddenly said, "Precursors, thanks for your trouble."
The Monster Clan and Demon Clan gathering made Shi Yan feel warm. When he was in danger previously, he had trusted Blood Devil enough to send him a rescue request. He wasn't even sure if Blood Devil could receive his message or not.
Shi Yan thought that even if Blood Devil had received his message, he wouldn't have mobilized a lot of people. At most, he would send some Demon experts to check his situation. When he could confirm Shi Yan's situation, he would send his big army.
However, it was beyond his imagination. Not only Blood Devil coming personally, but he also brought Bath and Gu Te of the Monster Clan. He had brought the strongest forces of Monster Clan and Demon Clan, combining them into one. It was because Blood Devil trusted him or he did care about Shi Yan's death or life much.
Shi Yan could see the biggest favor was that lonely member of the Immortal Demon Clan had for him.
Looking at the coming battleships and Blood Devil storming and landing, Shi Yan was touched as he said, "I couldn't believe you came here yourself. And you... bring your experts together with the Monster Clan."
Blood Devil laughed heroically. "Bath and Gu Te were quite discontented with me on our way here. Boy, help me explain to them. Or else, they would think I'm just acting unreasonably."
In the loud laughter, Bath and Gu Te appeared. Following them were McGee, Gu Mo, and Ghost Hunter. Their energy rolled powerfully, showing off the Monster Clan's might.
"What happened after all that?" Bath frowned. He was wearing a complexion that wasn't so friendly. "Kid, you sent a message and Blood Devil wanted a war. He had almost disordered the Monster Clan and Demon Clan. He forced us to send out our troops. We came to Shadow Ghostly Prison from our place. This route isn't short. Did you tell the truth about the danger coming to Agate Star Area?"
"Do you know about the God Clan?" Shi Yan's face was stern, hissing.
Blood Devil, Bath, and Gu Te exchanged looks. They nodded with a heavy visage.
"Recently, the number of members of the other clans who have come to Agate Star Area have reached the figure of several hundred. It was no exception that those people have come to Agate Star Area because their homelands have been invaded." Gu Te nodded and continued, "From what they told us, the God Clan... is an extremely intimidating force in this universe. Their fighting competence is said to be the strongest in this vast space. They are too invasive. They have always been working on expanding their territory. This clan has invaded many galaxies."
Shi Yan took a deep breath and said simply, "They've laid their eyes on Agate Star Area."
Everybody was shocked.
"The God Clan is about to invade us?" Bath changed his visage, his voice low and harsh.
"Almost," Shi Yan nodded, explaining seriously. "The Shadow Ghostly Prison here will be the entrance. Dark Shadow Clan is the watchdog of the God Clan. It's in charge of pioneering and cleaning the space barrier that stands between the two star areas. I'm sure that Great Elder of Potion and Tool Pavilion, Zuo Lou, has sealed a treaty with God Clan. He will use the internal competition of Potion and Tool Pavilion to put Agate Star Area into chaos, which will be the pavement for God Clan to come here later."
After he finished, the experts of the Monster Clan and Demon Clan couldn't stay calm anymore.
They all knew about the power of the God Clan through the refugees from different galaxies who came to find shelter in Agate Star Area. At the same time, Potion and Tool Pavilion was a super powerful force in Agate Star Area. Great Elder Zuo Lou controlled one-third of the power of Potion and Tool Pavilion. Being an ally with God Clan and Dark Shadow Clan would bring Agate Star Area a destructive transformation.
"God Clan is much stronger than what you think," Shi Yan sighed. "They have more than one hundred Incipient God Realm experts. Each of the twelve great families of the God Clan is able to rule an entire star area. In this vast sea of stars, God Clan has claimed almost half of the stars. If they lay their eyes on Agate Star Area, they would stir up this sea of star severely. Great but deadly commotion would happen."
Listening to his description of the God Clan's might, people took in a cold breath, their eyes frightened.
