2629 Storm Quicksand Sea (2 in 1)
Three days later.
Thanks to the efforts of the four of them, Han Fei finally came to the edge of the Storm Quicksand Sea.
In the past three days, Han Fei had gained some insights. It was really not easy to cultivate in this Wind Circle. Those who were not strong enough could easily die, or they could only cultivate in the outermost of the Wind Circle.
Even Wang Xiaojiu and the others could be said to have been through hundreds of battles in the past three days. They were in danger several times, and it was Han Fei who solved the enemies in the end.
At this moment, Han Fei and the other four stood at the edge of the Storm Quicksand Sea, looking at this strange scene in amazement.
The quicksand surged like a tide. It was clearly a sea of sand, but it seemed to be a huge tide in the sea. In addition, this tide was circulating. Every time it rose and fell, it created a turbulence that disappeared in the quicksand in the blink of an eye.
Needless to say, under the quicksand, there must be hidden tides.
In the sky above the Quicksand Sea, the storm was even stronger than the outer Wind Circle. The world was pale yellow, and visibility was probably less than three to five meters.
Han Fei snapped his fingers, and a knife light cut through the sand and into the Storm Quicksand Sea.
But soon, Han Fei felt that some cyan halos flickered on his knife light, which was exactly the law of wind that Wang Lanlan and the others mentioned. Soon, the knife light vibrated and rumbled, but it was completely destroyed by the law of wind after only less than a thousand kilometers.
Wang Lanlan and the others knew that although it was just Han Fei’s casual blow, this blow was also a knife light of the Perfected Star Transformation Realm. Such a knife light could easily slash hundreds of thousands of kilometers away outside, but here, it was annihilated within a thousand meters. It could be seen how terrifying the Storm Quicksand Sea was.
Wang Lanlan said, “Master Han Fei, except for the law of wind, undercurrents are surging under the Quicksand Sea, and the vortex is difficult to see. I’m afraid that half of the power of the slash just now was sucked into the vortex of the Quicksand Sea.”
Han Fei nodded. He had noticed that the slash could cut thousands of meters above the Quicksand Sea. But in the Quicksand Sea, it became much weaker.
Han Fei said casually, “It seems that no Wind Demons have approached this place.”
Wang Xiaojiu said, “Once the Wind Demons enter the Storm Quicksand Sea, they will also be swept in. Their result will be the same as ours. Once they get lost in it, it’s only a matter of time before they die. The greatest possibility is that they will be swallowed by the mine demons in the Quicksand Sea.”
Huang Ergou was sniffing the Quicksand Sea crazily.
Han Fei asked, “Ergou, what do you smell?”
Huang Ergou thought for a moment. “I smell the scent of a large number of mine demons, but they shouldn’t be very strong. In addition, I smell the scent of demon plants. Yes, it’s the smell of living demon plants. I often smell it at Big Luoluo’s house, so even if the life aura state is different, the essence is the same. They’re all demon plants.”
“A living demon plant?”
Everyone couldn’t help but look at Huang Ergou in confusion. You said there were demon plants in this damn place?
Even Han Fei frowned slightly. The environment here was so harsh. What kind of demon plants could survive in such extreme conditions?
Huang Ergou said, “I can be sure. And the vitality of this demonic plant is quite stable. Apart from that, I didn’t smell anything else. Perhaps it was affected by the law of wind, so I can’t smell anything further away.”
Han Fei said, “Enough. It’s already not bad to be sure that there are demon plants here. Alright, you can go back! Wait for me outside the Wind Circle.”
Wang Lanlan said, “Master Han Fei, why don’t you just leave? Few people can get out of this place after they enter it.”
Wang Xiaojiu nodded quickly. “Yes! In the past, even Monarchs often died in it. After all, no one can withstand the power of the law every day!”
Han Fei snorted and stepped into the Storm Quicksand Sea. In the blink of an eye, Han Fei’s figure disappeared without a trace in the storm. Only a voice remained. “Before I return, you have to cultivate hard. Don’t waste the divine crystals and Heavenly Dao Jade Essence.”
“Huff!”
Wang Xiaojiu took a long breath of relief. “Phew! He’s finally gone! How confident is he? He’s really not afraid of death.”
Sha Diao: “Wang Xiaojiu, be polite. Master Han Fei is also your master.”
Wang Xiaojiu said, “My master is Lord Emperor Sparrow. Forget it, let’s just go back quickly, OK?”
Wang Lanlan asked, “Should we wait here?”
Huang Ergou said, “The speed of cultivation in the Wind Circle is far faster than outside the Wind Circle. Besides, the periphery of the Storm Quicksand Sea is a relatively safe place. The wind demons dare not step in easily for fear of being swept in. As for the mine demons in the Quicksand Sea, I’m afraid it’s extremely rare for them to come out, so isn’t this place the most suitable place for cultivation?”
Wang Xiaojiu said, “Stupid. If it’s really so easy, how can you be the one who takes advantage of this? Countless people have already come, trying to take advantage of this. Although it is relatively safe outside the Storm Quicksand Sea for the time being, you don’t know that a law storm will be set off here. Once the law storm comes and we don’t leave, there will only be one outcome, which is to be swept into the Quicksand River.”
“A law storm?”
Wang Lanlan asked, “Why didn’t you tell Master Han Fei earlier?”
Wang Xiaojiu said, “I don’t have to tell him! He was going to enter the Quicksand Sea anyway. What could he not encounter in it? Why would he care about a mere storm? Come on, let’s go.”
…
The reason why Han Fei took Wang Xiaojiu and the others along this way was actually very simple. He wanted to see their respective abilities.
In three days, after thousands of battles, Han Fei learned their combat power, fighting style, fighting habits, and even temperament like the back of his hand.
At this moment, Han Fei stepped into the Quicksand Sea. Instead of entering the Quicksand Sea, he stopped above the Quicksand Sea without moving.
His body was quickly moved away by the quicksand sea.
At that moment, Han Fei felt a magnificent suction force coming from under his feet. It was a power that was about to trap him. This power contained the law of strength.
Yes, the moment he stood on this quicksand sea, he had already sensed that this place not only contained the law of wind, but also the law of strength.
His body seemed to be sucked by the quicksand sea. Although he could break through the suction force, it was unnecessary. He could just maintain this state and experience the difference between the law of strength and the Great Dao of strength.
Apart from the law of strength he felt under his feet, the sky above the Storm Quicksand Sea was indeed filled with the law of wind. Different from the power of the Great Dao, the destructive power of the sand in the wind had increased by more than three times.
Han Fei perceived it carefully. Around him, a barrier of the Great Dao of Strength was erected. As the sandstorm slapped, Han Fei personally saw the grains of sand being blocked by the Great Dao of strength after penetrating it. After being blocked, the sands even burst out the last power, which was extremely refined, like crystals condensed from a Great Dao.
In other words, when the law of wind pushed the sand, in addition to acting on the sand, it even changed the internal structure of the sand.
Even if the external force disappeared, there was still a last burst of power inside.
Click, click, click ~
After only one moment, Han Fei seemed to be trapped in a sand cage.
Bang!
On the surface of Han Fei’s body, the power of the Great Dao burst out and with a bang, shattered the wind around him. But in the next moment, a strange scene happened. The scattered sand, under the effect of the law of wind, returned in the next moment and continued to trap Han Fei.
“Interesting. The power of the law has the ability to self-converge?”
Bang!
Breaking free from the sand again, Han Fei burst out with speed and broke through the barrier of the law of wind. The scattered sands gathered again, as if gathering into a big ball. Because there was no Han Fei blocking it, the big ball fell directly into the sea of quicksand, and in the next moment, the entire ball was eaten by the sea of quicksand.
In the blink of an eye, Han Fei chased after it. This time, he didn’t resist the suction force in the quicksand sea. He wanted to catch up with the sand ball condensed by the law of wind and see what would happen after it entered the quicksand sea.
When Han Fei sank into the quicksand sea and released his perception in an extreme range, he saw that the sand ball was attracted by the law of strength and suddenly dispersed, forming a vortex.
“Oh! In their respective law domains, can laws devour, cover, accommodate, or even transform into each other?”
The sand ball condensed from the law of wind contained a lot of the power of the law of wind, but when it was rolled up by the law of strength, the power dispersed. At that moment, the law of wind was swallowed by the law of strength, or to put it another way, it was transformed.
This was the first time he had come into contact with the power of laws. He felt that it was indeed more magical than the Great Dao. The so-called power of the Great Dao was more about the combination of the power of this world.
However, the power of the law was more complicated and varied.
However, the only problem now was that to master the infinite changes, one not only needed to understand the characteristics of the law, but also needed to understand where the law came from.
Characteristics weren’t important. Where they came from was.
Han Fei’s first reaction was that the law was separated from the Great Dao. But how could he separate the law from the power of the Great Dao? Han Fei didn’t have much clue about this problem.
However, he wasn’t here to comprehend a law. Although laws were good, it was the specialty of a Monarch. In fact, fundamentally speaking, the power of a law was the use of a higher level of power. Once one comprehended a law in the Sky Opening Realm, his combat power would probably rise several times. This would violate the law of the heavens. Therefore, the probability of one comprehending a law in the Sky Opening Realm wasn’t high. It was mainly because after the Monarch-level Tribulation, the power of the Great Dao would undergo a qualitative change.
It was not bad to be able to understand the characteristics of some laws. At least, he knew something about the power of laws.
After experiencing the power of two laws, Han Fei had a rough idea. Three times. The power of the law in the Storm Quicksand Sea was about three times stronger than the same Great Dao.
Although the gap was not small, it didn’t cause much damage to Han Fei. Of course, although it wasn’t big, Han Fei didn’t need to be corroded and hit by the power of the law here for a long time.
Therefore, Han Fei was immediately covered in a layer of Star Sea Mystic Sand. It was also sand, but the probability of the law here dispersing the Star Sea Mystic Sand was almost zero.
At this moment, hidden tides were surging in the Quicksand Sea. If Han Fei allowed the Quicksand Sea currents to sweep over, his position would constantly change.
Therefore, Han Fei stabilized himself and resisted the impact of the sand tide.
However, when Han Fei did this, he frowned slightly. The sand tide was actually affected by the law of strength and the law of wind, so the thrust was astonishing. Without activating his Great Dao, Han Fei almost had to use all his strength to resist this push.
“It seems that I can’t stay here for long. If I stay here for too long, my mental state will definitely decline. Even if I can withstand the push of the sand, it won’t be easy to deal with the mine demons living here.”
Han Fei immediately took out the Vast Ocean Navigator. As he issued an order in his heart, the needle pointed in a certain direction.
Buzz!
Han Fei rushed out with all his strength. The quicksand was like a tide, but it was relatively sparser than the sand in the Wind Circle, so he didn’t need to dig holes to move forward.
The only bad thing was that this quicksand sea had great resistance. Han Fei could have burst out with more than thirty times the speed of light, but here, he could only barely maintain twice the speed of light.
This gave Han Fei a headache. Considering the depth of the outer wind currents, it would take him at least half a month to get out of this Storm Quicksand Sea.
“No wonder they dare not enter the Storm Quicksand Sea. Normally, a Perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator’s spiritual power will be exhausted after holding out for one day in this damn place. Three days is the limit even for a powerhouse with five Dao Locks. This is not counting the situation of the mine demons here. Even if they encounter a mine demon of the ordinary Wind Demon level, they might immediately fall into a perilous situation.”
Han Fei remembered that Li Luoluo told him this information so casually. She didn’t seem to try to kill him, but to test him. However, was she testing him, or was she testing the Emperor Sparrow? Or was there another purpose?
Half a day later.
Han Fei was glad that he hadn’t met the mine demons in the Quicksand Sea yet. Perhaps the living conditions here were very difficult, so the number of mine demons wasn’t as many as they said.
While Han Fei was thinking, he suddenly rushed into a large silver sea of sand. He took a closer look, only to see strange fishes no more than several meters long, whose bodies were erect and as thin as paper. Their bodies were composed of extremely smooth minerals, which must have been polished by the law of strength and the law of wind for a long time.
In Han Fei’s eyes, information immediately appeared:
<Name > Silver Blade Mine Fish
<Introduction > A Silver Blade Mine Fish is condensed from mineral sand. Affected by the law of strength and the law of wind, its body is as thin as a cicada’s wings and as sharp as a wind blade. Silver Blade Mine Fish are gregarious mine demons. They can only break through the wind and waves in the Quicksand Sea in a group. Once they are alone, they will be swept up by the quicksand and be beaten to death. They use the mineral sands in the quicksand tide as their energy supplement. They can’t stop for their entire lives and can only swim nonstop.
<Level > 101
<Quality > Level-Four Mine Demon
<Realm > Early-stage Sky Opening realm
<Battle Technique> Silverlight Blade, Wind Slaying Knife, Power of Silver Light
<Collectible > Level-Four Mineral Sand
<Absorbable >
<Note > Its weakness is obvious. Be careful of the collective attack of the Silver Blade Mine Fish.
In Han Fei’s eyes, information appeared one after another. From level 101 to level 105, it kept changing. He didn’t see one stronger than level 105, or maybe he hadn’t seen it yet.
Because perception couldn’t be released in the Storm Quicksand Sea, even if these Silver Blade Mine Fish were only thousands of kilometers away from Han Fei, he didn’t know.
This was why Han Fei bumped into the school of fish.
These Silver Blade Mine Fish were actually taken aback by Han Fei, but they reacted faster, as if they were already used to this sudden change. Therefore, this huge school of fish, led by the lead fish, suddenly turned around, and thousands of Silver Blade Mine Fish seemed to turn into a complete big fish, breaking through the quicksand tide, cutting open the Great Dao of Wind and the Great Dao of Force, and instantly rushed past Han Fei.
Clank, Clank, Clank ~
At that moment, Han Fei almost lost control of his body. It was as if in an instant, tens of thousands of knife lights hit him, and even the Star Sea Mystic Sand was full of cracks.
Of course, the Star Sea Mystic Sand wouldn’t be shattered, but the fact that a group of early-stage Sky Opening realm mine demons could crack the Star Sea Mystic Sand proved how terrifying these Silver Blade Mine Fish were.
It was not that a single Silver Blade Mine Fish was terrifying, but that the impact of their combination was very terrifying.
After the first round of attacks failed, the Silver Blade Mine Fish instantly turned back, trying to launch a second round of attacks. Han Fei certainly wouldn’t let it.
Han Fei flipped his hand and threw out the Extreme Cold Pearl. In an instant, the sky was frozen. The Silver Blade Fish all froze. However, the Extreme Cold Pearl was fine for living creatures with flesh and blood, but the number of mine demons it could kill was limited. It was unrealistic to kill tens of thousands of mine demons at once. At most, it could freeze them for a while.
Besides, the power in the Storm Quicksand Sea wouldn’t allow the freezing power of the Extreme Cold Pearl to last long.
Therefore, Han Fei clenched his fist and threw out a Star Explosion Fist. Like a star exploding, the impact immediately blew up these frozen Silver Blade Mine Fish in all directions.
At this time, the quicksand poured back and the law of strength was activated. Because the Silver Blade Mine Fish that had been blown up could no longer gather in groups and their bodies could not return to normal movement for the time being, nearly half of them were destroyed by the quicksand sea in the blink of an eye, causing lightning and thunder to flash above the quicksand sea.
In the end, there were less than 500 Silver Blade Mine Fish that could barely be gathered together. Only 500 of them could barely keep their group alive. It was impossible for them to settle scores with Han Fei. If they were scattered again, they would probably be wiped out.
The Silver Blade Mine Fish that had grown to this level had some consciousness, so they quickly hid in the quicksand and never showed up again.
However, less than a hundred seconds after the Silver Blade Mine Fish ran away, thousands of hairs suddenly extended out of the sand, piercing through the silver power of the Silver Blade Mine Fish and directly piercing through the five hundred Silver Blade Mine Fish.
At the end of every thread, there was a strange water drop-shaped fruit. When the thread pierced through the Silver Blade Mine Fish, the fruit suddenly cracked, turned into a skin, and enveloped the Silver Blade Mine Fish. It lasted for about half an hour. When these skins turned into water drop-shaped fruits again, there was no Silver Blade Mine Fish here, only some ordinary sands.
On the other side, Han Fei quickly put away the Extreme Cold Pearl. Looking at the Quicksand Sea that had returned to normal, he could only take out the Vast Ocean Navigator again.
He had no choice. Once he lost his direction in the battle, he had to correct it in time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to cross this Storm Quicksand Sea.
Taking action again, Han Fei became vigilant.
The Silver Blade Mine Fish could be said to be very weak. In order to adapt to the harsh environment of the Storm Quicksand Sea, they had evolved into slices to resist the law of strength and the law of wind.
However, even a group of creatures like the Silver Blade Mine Fish could shatter the Star Sea Mystic Sand collectively. What if their individual strength was stronger? What if their individual strength reached the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm or even the perfected Star Transformation Realm?
Han Fei didn’t dare to imagine it. If he encountered a mine demon of that level, his only way out would be to run.
One day later.
Han Fei encountered the second wave of mine demons, a kind of Flying Leaf Shell. This kind of mine demon was different from the Silver Blade Mine Fish. They were shellfish, and their originally flat bodies became even flatter, like leaves fluttering and moving with the sand. However, these things spun with astonishing cutting power. Fortunately, their level was similar to the Silver Blade Mine Fish, so they didn’t cause any substantial damage to Han Fei.
One day.
Two days.
Three days passed.
…
On the seventh day, Han Fei encountered as many as 13 types of gregarious mine demons, with an average of two groups every day. And the strength of these gregarious mine demons was indeed constantly growing. From the Silver Blade Mine Fish that was only in the early stage Sky Opening realm, to today, seven days later, Han Fei encountered a group of disc-shaped starfish whose average strength was in the Star Transformation Realm. The strength of the mine demons here was slowly improving, and the threat was getting greater and greater.
At this moment, the Emperor Sparrow shouted, “Are you done resting? If you are, take your body back. There are too many of these starfish and they are extremely fast. We can’t just keep killing them.”
Han Fei said, “Okay, okay. It’s my turn.”
The Emperor Sparrow: “Why am I the only one rotating with you? Why don’t you call Little Black and Little White out to rotate with you?”
Han Fei said, “In such a chaotic battle, I’m afraid that Little Black will go crazy and then I might not be able to take my body back.”
“It seems that your will is still not strong enough. You can’t even suppress your spiritual beast.”
Han Fei was lost for words. “I can’t suppress you either.”
The Emperor Sparrow pondered for a moment. “What you said makes sense.”
Han Fei regained control of his body and threw out the Extreme Cold Pearl, blocking thousands of disc-shaped starfish. But another thousands of them still surrounded him from all directions.
Although these disc starfish were also gregarious mine demons, they weren’t densely packed and only formed groups within a certain range. Therefore, the Extreme Cold Pearl couldn’t freeze all of them.
The chase had been going on for half an hour. The Emperor Sparrow had killed about 60% of the disc starfish with one blow. Here, he couldn’t use the Eyes of Disaster, or God knew what other groups of mine demons would be attracted over. At that time, it would be even more dangerous. But fortunately, the Emperor Sparrow had already solved most of the disc starfish. With so little left, even if Han Fei took his time, he could wear them down in at most another four hours.
Two hour later.
The number of disc starfish chasing Han Fei had decreased by nearly half, with only less than 2,000, and the others had all been shaken off. Han Fei was about to throw out the Extreme Cold Pearl again, preparing to freeze them again.
But suddenly, Han Fei had a bad feeling. He threw the Extreme Cold Pearl at an unknown place backhand.
“Puff! Puff! Puff!”
In the next moment, Han Fei saw thousands of hairs shooting out of nowhere from the Quicksand Sea. These hairs pierced through the nearly 2,000 disc starfish behind Han Fei in an instant. Then, a water drop-shaped fruit turned into a skin and enveloped those disc starfish.
Looking at the direction where the Extreme Cold Pearl was thrown, there were thousands of hairs trying to hit him. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and had the Extreme Cold Pearl. Otherwise, he would have been ambushed.
“Sh*t!”
In the blink of an eye, Han Fei performed the Saber Drawing Technique, holding a piece of quicksand and cutting through the hair. After this slash, only a hundred strands of hair were broken.
Han Fei reached out and grabbed the broken hair. Then, information popped up in his eyes.
<Name > Thousand Silk Monarch Willow
<Introduction > A strange demon plant that grows in the quicksand sea. This demon plant was born to have the ability to absorb the power of minerals. Because the Thousand Silk Monarch Willow’s body is extremely thin and moist, it can survive in the quicksand sea and deprive the souls of the mine demons to eat. The Thousand Silk Monarch Willow is small and can shrink into a ball, but its silk is like a net and comparable to a godly weapon. Fishing with a thousand strands, it is good at hiding, good at hunting, and extremely difficult to catch.
<Level > 111
<Quality > Primordial Demon Plant
<Realm > Dao Proving
<Battle Technique> Thousand Thread Fishing, Void Barrier Breaking, Devouring Teeth, String Puppet
<Collectible > Thousand Silk Buckle
<Absorbable >
<Note > The Thousand Silk Monarch Willow’s only weakness is that its body toughness is average.
