Chapter 163 Little Brother, Don’t Be Angry

Pa!

Su Wen clashed with the fatty’s blade Qi.

In an instant, the same thought flashed in their minds.

This fellow was not weak!

The two of them jumped back at the same time. Su Wen carried the black-scaled man and turned around to run! He did not want to fight, especially at the moment. He did not know much about this place, so Su Wen only wanted to gather information!

The Fatty’s thoughts were similar. He turned to the four and smiled. “Don’t worry, we’re safe.”

The leader said in a low and muffled voice, “Thank you for saving us!” This person spoke with an honest tone, and said, “Please accept our kowtow, brother!” The four of them knelt down together! Fatty hurried forward to help him up and said, “Brother, there’s no need to be so formal. May I ask where we are?”

“This place is… your burial ground!”

Bam!

The four of them attacked at the same time!

The fatty had never expected that these four people would not let down their guard because of his rescue. Instead, they had the intention to kill! They even put on a show for him!

At such a close distance, even though these four people’s martial arts skills were average, the fatty who was not vigilant did not have time to defend.

The four weapons instantly smashed Fatty into a pile of meat paste! The leader grinned and said, “There’s such a fool in this world! Is he a lord from the city?” As he spoke, he took out a pearl from his bosom and placed it on the fatty’s flesh. The pearl seemed transparent, with black mist swirling within it. After placing it on the fatty’s body, the bead emitted a black light… not long after, the light dissipated and the black energy within the bead became much thicker. The four of them didn’t mind being dirtied, directly carrying Fatty’s corpse, letting the blood flow freely. They left the scene! On the other side, Su Wen grabbed the black-scaled man and ran for several kilometers. When he saw that there was no one around, he threw him to the ground! “Big Brother… you’re injured! Are you alright?” Su Wen asked with a smile.

The Black Scale looked at his smile and felt a little scared. The spear in his hand tightened unconsciously.

“I am fine… I am Wu Feng of the Phosphorous Black Snake Clan. Who are you?” “My name is Su Wen…” After introducing himself, Su Wen smiled and said,” Big brother, can you tell me what is going on here? Where is this place? How many people are here? Why are you fighting?” “You’re from the Immortal Realm?” Wu Feng’s eyes widened as he stared at Su Wen in shock. “Otherwise, how could you not know anything?” Su Wen narrowed his eyes. “What do you mean?” “It’s rumored that the people of the Immortal Realm will descend one day, bringing destruction and slaughter to the Devil Martial Realm. All of us, the members of the Devil Martial Realm, have to take on the responsibility of killing those from the Immortal Realm!”

“These are true words left behind by the God of Creation!”

Wu Feng’s well defined face was filled with fear as he exclaimed, “You must be from the Immortal Realm!” Su Wen rubbed his chin. This Star Martial Secret Realm was established by the Nine Saints of the human race. It was very clear that they had deliberately left behind these sayings to make both sides oppose each other.

In reality, even if he didn’t leave these words behind, Su Wen already knew from killing the frogmen that killing the natives would be beneficial to him.

However, Wu Feng’s eyes were filled with fear.

Su Wen then discovered a problem! His Emotional Value did not show any increase! Despair was written all over Wu Zhen’s face. “We’ve had so many seniors, yet none of them have been able to stop the descent of the Immortal Realm?” Su Wen frowned. What did he mean by that? Suddenly, Wu Feng leaped up from the ground and thrust his spear at Su Wen! “Bang!” Just as he moved, Su Wen had already moved. He ruthlessly punched Wu Feng’s head. Although Wu Feng was tall and his cultivation level was also at the 9th Stage of Star Rank, compared to Su Wen, his True Qi quality, level, and battle techniques were far inferior. Most importantly, Su Wen did not let down his guard. Su Wen’s fist landed on Wu Feng’s head, but his movements did not slow down in the slightest. Following which, he launched a series of violent combinations of fists and beat Wu Feng half to death! Following which, he kicked Wu Feng’s spear away as Su Wen laughed sinisterly! “Alright, I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but I didn’t expect you to not know how to appreciate favors! I’ll lay my cards on the table. I’m indeed someone who descended from the Immortal Realm. Whatever I ask, you better hurry up and answer truthfully to the best of your abilities, or else this Daddy here will beat you to death! I’ll give you a chance to be a traitor to your race in exchange for your life, how about it?” Su Wen urgently needed to know everything about this so-called Devil Martial Realm. Soon, Su Wen learned a lot from Wu Feng. This Devil Martial Realm was said to have been created by the devil god from the nine gods of creation. The entire world wasn’t too large, there were only nine cities and a stretch of wilderness.

And this was the result after developing for an unknown period of time. This also led to the geographical sense of everyone in this world to be especially good. After all, this place was only so big to begin with.

Thus, it was very strange for someone like Su Wen to ask where this was!

In this world, cultivation was very simple. Many races were born as Star Ranks, but… everyone had a goal. Ascension! This was connected to the legends spoken just now. Those who broke through to the 3rd Grade of Earth Rank would be able to ascend to the Immortal Realm and fight against the Immortal Race to save the Devil Martial Realm.

This was also a maxim left behind by the Founding Demon God. It was regarded as the truth by everyone in the Devil Martial Realm. Wu Feng continued, “However, from three thousand years ago, many people no longer chose to ascend because after tens of millions of years of ascension, many people believed that the Immortal Realm had already been conquered by our Devil Martial Realm! Basically, they would do their best to delay the speed at which their cultivation increased. In any case, as long as they wanted to ascend, it would still be very simple…” Su Wen was speechless. He had a vague guess in his heart.

Those who entered the mystic realm would be teleported out once their cultivations rose above 3rd Grade Earth Rank. However, would these fellows also be teleported out? Probably not. If not, according to Wu Feng, why had Su Wen never heard of anyone ascending from this Devil Martial Realm in the past tens of thousands of years? Most likely, they were probably reduced to ashes on the spot. “Then what is that Demon Martial Bead you mentioned?” Wu Feng continued, “Demon Martial Beads are items that can be used to comprehend martial skills. This kind of bead can absorb the Saint Qi from corpses. The more you absorb, the higher the level of the martial skills within the bead! The Demon Martial Beads can also absorb each other to strengthen themselves. Every member of the Devil Martial Realm wants a Demon Martial Bead, but the number of beads is limited. Occasionally, after someone ascends, they would be scattered all over the world. Whoever picks them up will treat them as treasures!”

Su Wen narrowed his eyes.

So that was how it was. He gradually understood that the world he was in was a world of slaughter!

Simple and pure!

It was to encourage those who ‘descended’ to kill!

Want a cultivation technique? Kill! Want to become stronger? Kill! This was the simplest form of training. It was also what they had come to do. Just as Su Wen was deep in thought, he suddenly raised his head and saw a figure speeding over from afar. It was precisely Ni Hongxiao. When she reached Su Wen’s side, Ni Hongxiao’s eyes were filled with excitement! “Interesting! This place is too interesting! There are many experimental materials that I have never seen before!”

As she spoke, she saw Wu Feng on the ground.

She opened her eyes wide and exclaimed, “That’s great! I ran into a similar looking black fellow, but he ran away! It just so happens that I can dissect this!”

“No!” Su Wen immediately refused. “We need someone familiar with this place.”

He did not want to be blind and run around recklessly! Ni Hongxiao pursed her lips in dissatisfaction for a while before conceding, “Alright then.” She squatted down and brought a small bottle to Wu Feng’s wound. “Since you’re injured, you don’t mind me taking some blood, right?” Although it was a question, Wu Feng clearly had no right to refuse! “Give me some scales too.” “Hair… nails…”

“So annoying… I want to cut open your head…” Wu Feng’s face was filled with fear as he looked at this beautiful woman.

After taking out what she wanted, Ni Hongxiao then retrieved a jade bottle and poured some medicine on Wu Feng’s wound. Then, she took out a small notebook and began to write down her observations. “Physical healing is three times faster than normal humans… absorption of drugs over twice as fast as normal humans… poison resistance… ten, eleven, twelve…” When she counted to twelve, Wu Feng suddenly began convulsing

“Well… it’s a lot stronger than a normal person’s, based on the fact that he’s only at 9th Grade Star Rank…”

As she spoke, she stuffed another pill into Wu Feng’s mouth.

A moment later, Wu Feng recovered. Ni Hongxiao finally stood up, “Be obedient, did you feel it just now? If you don’t eat the antidote after a month, you will die immediately.” Wu Feng’s already black face turned even darker.

Su Wen then told Ni Hongxiao about the information he obtained from Wu Feng.

As well as the chance to obtain Saint Qi upon killing others. Ni Hongxiao frowned at this knowledge, and after a moment’s thought, she said, “I’ve got some poison here. Would you like to find a river and throw it in? It’ll probably kill a lot of people… and things that aren’t human…” Su Wen gulped. This… was such a tempting suggestion! “Later! We’ll talk about it later!” In the end, Su Wen still rejected this suggestion.

And at that moment, the other trial challengers had all begun to use their own methods.

People like the Third Prince, Wu Lie, and Xu Longcheng would usually find a safe place to break through to the 1st Grade of Earth Rank as soon as they entered this realm! There were some who didn’t break through, some who killed the creatures of this world, some who were killed! And within the nine cities, the various city lords were the kings of this Devil Martial Realm!

The area Su Wen was in was under the jurisdiction of Hurricane City.

At this time, in the City Lord Residence, an extremely beautiful woman with a spicy hot figure was lying on a couch. In front of her was a curtain, and around her were maids. Other than her smoking figure, she also had two fox ears on her forehead. If one were to look at her legs, they would also notice that she had several large fox tails.

“You’re saying that… someone who seems to have descended from the Immortal Realm has appeared?”

“Yes! These people are dressed differently from the masses. Their cultivation techniques are profound, and their battle prowess is formidable. However, they all look like ordinary humans. I’m thinking they’re from the Immortal Realm!”

The Hurricane City Lord narrowed his eyes and lazily stretched her body. Her ears twitched as she smiled, “Then send someone to investigate and get two living people back!”

“Yes!”

Bai Xiangxiang’s smile grew wider. Perhaps her ordinary life was going to be more exciting! What exactly was the Immortal Realm like?

To the natives of this realm, the Immortal Realm was an existence that they yearned for and feared.

The yearning was because it was passed down in legends. Furthermore, the people here rarely died of old age. They lacked resources and fought all year round. It was not easy to survive till a ripe old age.

Experts would ascend very soon. Although many people suppressed their cultivation in order to enjoy a better life, no one would hesitate for too long. Because to them, they were very clearly aware that unless they wasted their time and died of old age, the only path was to ascend to the Immortal Realm. Bai Xiangxiang, as the City Lord, other than the Bai Clan being the biggest clan in Hurricane City, her strength was also at the peak of the 3rd Grade Earth Rank. She could break through at any moment! At this moment, Su Wen had followed Wu Feng back to his home!

Rather than calling it home, it would be more accurate to call it a temporary cave. Wu Feng was a member of the Phosphorous Black Snake Clan, but he had great ambitions. He wanted to obtain a stronger martial skill and lead his clan to live a good life. Thus, he came out into the wilderness.

Except, so far, he hadn’t succeeded… except to have become a slave to an ‘immortal’…

Su Wen had also learned about the current state of the world from Wu Feng. The wilderness here was made up of oases of all sizes. As long as one wanted to find someone, it was very simple. They just had to find an oasis. “But what’s with the feeling of being targeted during the day?” Su Wen frowned. He knew that he would never make a mistake in his perception. Even if his perception was wrong, the reaction of the Sorcerer God’s Golden Gu was also very unusual. Slaughter was the theme of this world because resources were insufficient to begin with. The nine large cities were the places with the most abundant resources. The people outside the city were lonely souls and wild ghosts. It was normal for people from different races to eat with each other or even their own clansmen.

At this moment, Wu Feng was chased out while Ni Hongxiao and Su Wen were in the cave. Ni Hongxiao was carefully dissecting the frogman that Su Wen had killed. “Is it any different from us?” Su Wen asked.

Ni Hongxiao spoke as she dissected, “It’s definitely different? How can this thing be the same as a human? Look at your entire body, which part of it looks like this?”

“Um…”

Su Wen was more concerned about the fact that Wu Feng did not provide him with any Emotional Value feedback.

Was it because Wu Feng was not human? “Then how do you think Wu Feng is different from us?”

“They’re from the Snake Clan, and we’re humans, so we’re fundamentally different from each other, alright? Don’t ask me some stupid questions, I still need to do experiments. If you’re really bored, then just look at the jugs. Big Sister doesn’t care, but I’ll have to trouble you to shut your mouth, okay?” Ni Hongxiao irritably spoke as she pulled down her collar. “Alright…” Su Wen decided to quietly admire the scenery! “There’s someone!” Suddenly, Wu Feng outside the cave roared.

Su Wen hurriedly got up and rushed out. Meanwhile, Ni Hongxiao continued to dissect the frogman corpse.

The moment he stepped out of the door, Su Wen saw more than ten men and women. All of them were naked and were holding weapons. The leader was the man who had fought with Wu Feng during the day. However, the fatty’s machete had already fallen into his hands. He grinned. “Hehe, we can eat my fill tonight! Kill!”

As soon as he finished speaking, over 10 people charged towards Su Wen and Wu Feng! Wu Feng’s face was already filled with fear. Amongst the people in front of him, the lowest cultivation base was at least at the 7th Stage Star Rank, and there were four or five of them at 9th Stage Star Rank! But at this moment, Su Wen had already swung his blade!

Nine Waves Return to Origin! A slash from Su Wen’s saber created nine streaks of Saber Qi that flew in all directions.

The Saber Qi then suddenly congregated in the air!

A huge blade qi that was more than ten meters wide swept across the area destroying everything in its path. These natives had never seen such a terrifying martial technique before. Before they could react, they all suddenly froze in their movements! Right after, their bodies split into two, and blood splattered all over the ground. The smell of blood originally caused by the dissections became even stronger! Cultivating an Earth Rank martial technique to perfection had greatly increased Su Wen’s battle prowess!

It was just that, with a sweep of his saber, Su Wen’s True Qi was depleted by a quarter! The skill’s expenditure was truly terrifying as mentioned! However, everything was worth it. More than half of the dozen or so people died in one move, including the 9th Grade experts! The remaining people fled, but Su Wen did not hold back at all. He quickly chased after them and quickly killed them all! Only one was left alive!

Su Wen stepped forward and took out the Demon Martial Bead from the leader! This thing was the key to obtaining high level martial skills! Under Wu Feng’s guidance, Su Wen placed the bead on the corpses of these people. Just like before, the black Qi flowed into them. Furthermore, when Su Wen was killing people, he discovered that there were wisps of Saint Qi entering his body. Indeed, this world encouraged killing and slaughter.

At this moment, Ni Hongxiao walked out of the house. Her clothes had already been straightened back to before. When she saw the corpses all over the ground and one still alive, she smiled and said, “Well done, little brother! Get me a corpse and then give me the living person, and you can have fun tonight! There’s no need for you to sleep anymore!”

However, Su Wen stood on the spot with his brows tightly furrowed. He still did not gain any Emotional Value throughout this exchange! This made him extremely unhappy! Furthermore, it completely did not make sense. Although killing these natives had given him quite a bit of harvest, the lack of Emotional Value still bothered him.

“My good brother, don’t be angry anymore. I know my attitude wasn’t good just now. I’ll let you touch it later. Quickly bring the people in.” Ni Hongxiao mistakenly thought that Su Wen was angry from his expression. Su Wen shook his head and brought them in. He said to Ni Hongxiao in a low voice, “You must take a good look. These people are definitely different from us!” Seeing how serious Su Wen was, Ni Hongxiao also put away her teasing expression. She dissected the corpse first, but no matter what, she could not see any difference. “There’s no difference. These people have the same structure as us. Other than being a little ugly, there’s no difference at all!” Ni Hongxiao said in a low voice. Su Wen looked at the corpse in puzzlement. He then shook his head and said, “There’s definitely something different!”

That’s right. The person in the corner was so scared that he almost peed his pants, but Su Wen was still not getting any emotional value. How could he be the same as the humans outside this realm? Ni Hongxiao solemnly looked at Su Wen. “Are you sure?” “Very sure, certain, it must be so!” “Alright then!”

Ni Hongxiao turned her gaze to the person in the corner.

After another round of experiments, she came to a conclusion the next morning. “There’s indeed something wrong with the people here! Their spirit is incomplete!” Ni Hongxiao said somewhat doubtfully, “Compared to normal humans, they’re missing a soul and a mortal form. I don’t know why either, but this is the difference between them and us.”

(TL Note: In Daoism, it is believed that Man has three immortal souls and seven mortal forms, which make up one’s spirit) Su Wen frowned. “What kind of impact would that have?”

Ni Hongxiaio shook her head, “From the looks of them now, there’s no impact. But if it’s us, we will turn into fools if we’re missing even one of the souls or mortal forms!”

“Is there a way to make up for it?” Su Wen asked curiously. Ni Hongxiao simply stared at him as if she was looking at a fool, “If we strip someone of one soul and one mortal form, through some methods, we can still replenish them. But they are born without it, what can I use to replenish them?”

At this time, she started to speculate, “This Star Martial Secret Realm was created by the joint efforts of the nine Human Saints. I suspect that although the nine Saints were strong, they are only humans after all. They are unable to perfectly reproduce some things. These races, humans, perhaps they are able to reproduce according to existing species, but because of the rules involving one’s spirit, they are unable to perfectly reproduce them. Thus, they created these strange people.” At this point, she smiled. “In the end, they’re just objects for us to kill. What does it matter whether it’s complete or not?” Su Wen shook his head and sighed. Were they the experts here? There was actually a person who created a world of its own, and created a new biological specie. Although there were still some shortcomings, it was already something that ordinary people could never achieve in their lifetime.

All living beings were ants in front of the creator!

At this moment, Su Wen realized that he knew too little. No wonder Su Changqing said that the waters in the capital ran deep. A mere Star Martial Mystic Realm had completely overturned his worldview.

However, he also understood why these people could not increase his Emotional Value!

Obviously, these people were judged by the system as artificial.

Taking out the Demon Martial Bead, Su Wen smiled and said, “Then take a look at this bead.”

Ni Hongxiao did not stand on ceremony, she took it and examined it. After a while, she shook her head: “I don’t understand it! This thing completely exceeds my understanding, it is like the Saint Qi in your body.”

Su Wen looked at the remaining living person and smiled. “Then you should kill this person. You have to have some Saint Qi. Since we’re working together, I can’t let you gain nothing.”

Ni Hongxiao did not bother to be courteous as well, she casually slapped her experimental subject to death.

Su Wen was a little curious. “Since you’re so obsessed with experiments, why is your cultivation level so high?”

Ni Hong smiled as she stroked her hair. “Because long-term experiments require great physical strength, I casually found a cultivation technique to practice.”

‘Good Lord… Su Wen resisted the urge to tell her to stop bragging This fellow had casually found a cultivation technique to practice, and was already at this stage?

She was even doing a dual-cultivation of spirit and martial arts!

If Su Wen remembered wrongly, the Spiritual Masters had their own special cultivation methods.

For example, he wasn’t able to examine the spirit of the native just now.

Currently, within the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, Emperor Zhou was looking at the 200 jade tokens in front of him!

Four of them had already shattered!

This meant that four people had died.

As for the others, there was a value below the jade token.

Su Wen’s current value was 64, which meant that he had obtained that amount of Saint Qi.

Currently, the highest ranked person was that Little Monk Zhizhen. He had already obtained 145 points of Saint Qi!

Close behind him were a few others.

The Third Prince… Wu Lie… Xu Longcheng… All of them had quite high amounts of Saint Qi.

They all hovered at the three digit mark.

Emperor Zhou sighed and said, “Su Wen’s cultivation is still a little low, so he’s at a disadvantage.” The old eunuch shook his head and said with a smile, “Your Majesty is being anxious. This is only the first day, so it doesn’t mean anything. Moreover, no matter how much Saint Qi is accumulated in the early stages, if they can’t leave the mystic realm then everything will be empty talk. There are still 179 days left, still far away from the end.”

Emperor Zhou said in a low voice, “I can’t not be anxious. The last time, because we were completely wiped out, it caused great damage to the foundations of Great Zhou! If we are completely wiped out this time, I will have no choice but to fight in the war! Because Great Zhou will lose the capital to drag this out!”

At this moment, the top scorer for Greath Zhou, Little Monk Zhizhen, was situated in an oasis.

He held a Buddhist staff.

With a warm smile on his face, he looked around his surroundings!

“Without Master present, I can finally eat meat…”

“These things talk… but they’re not human… and… they taste pretty good…”

“Hee-hee, it’s nice not to have to chant scriptures

At this moment, Huiming was continuously striking the wooden fish as he meditated, but his heart was not calm.

“Zhizhen… has the Buddha Embryo Demon Heart… Can you actually reject a Demon Heart?”

Huiming didn’t know if he had done the right thing or not.

The little monk had been by his side for seventeen years, and had never been alone on his own.

In his opinion, although Zhizhen was still lacking, his demonic nature should have been eliminated…

But he hadn’t expected that… even as a Heaven Rank expert, he couldn’t see through a person’s heart…

A repressed nature, yet thrown into a mystic realm that encourages slaughter…
