Chapter 1553: Immortal City

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Han Fei’s strength had stunned Long Xi and Wen Zhu.

Especially Long Xi, she was shocked that Han Fei casually blocked her full-strength blow.

More importantly, Han Fei was so talented as a spirit gatherer, but he was also a soul warrior? And he was also a very strong soul warrior.

However, Long Xi immediately believed that Han Fei was a human. Only humans had the profession of spirit gatherer. Only human spirit gatherers would study complicated arrays.

Long Xi immediately cupped her hands and said, “It seems that you are from outside the cage?”

Han Fei grinned. “Do you believe what I say?”

Long Xi nodded. “Wen Zhu might not know, but occasionally some human Venerables will come in from the outside. However, it’s easy to come in but extremely difficult to leave. The barriers in cages are not eternal. They can repair themselves. Besides, the difficulty of entering and exiting is completely different. So far, no one has successfully left the Immortal City.”

Han Fei thought to himself, I know the difficulty.

When he came in, it also took him a lot of effort. At that time, he used the Twin Divine Technique and an ultra short-distance Dao Pattern teleportation array before he came in.

Han Fei said, “It doesn’t matter if it’s difficult or not! I need to know how strong the humans in this cage are.”

However, Long Xi said, “I won’t tell you anything about the Immortal City. If you can really prove that you are on the human side and are here to help us, you can go to the Immortal City. If you have the courage, we can accompany you.”

Han Fei smiled. “I didn’t expect you. However, I’m curious why you are here, and why you are both seriously injured.”

Long Xi didn’t keep it a secret. “We’re here to recuperate because we were injured. Although the Immortal City and the Demon Beast Union aren’t on good terms now, they won’t be hostile to each other. Therefore, this is the safest place.”

Han Fei didn’t ask further but just smiled. “There are quite a few islands nearby… If I’ve counted correctly, there should be 24 islands of various sizes within these 50,000 miles. There aren’t even 50 people living on them… Are there so few people in the Immortal City now?”

Long Xi was shocked. Is this person so terrifying? His perception range is so vast?

Han Fei added, “Or… there are only a few living people but many undead creatures in the Immortal City?”

Long Xi made an inviting gesture. “If you want to ask questions, please go to the Immortal City first.”

Han Fei grinned. “Hehe…”

Han Fei was eating barbecue here, only taking a short break. He casually scanned the area with his perception and found that although there were many islands here, there were very few creatures.

In addition, Han Fei was thinking about another question. Was there only one island that emerged from the Wall of Death in the Water-Wood World?

Just now, Han Fei saw that there were not even a few birds on the nearby islands, which were dead silent…

Therefore, Han Fei was puzzled. Could it be that there were few people in the Immortal City in the first place?

Han Fei went straight towards the Immortal City, and Long Xi followed him with Wen Zhu.

Originally, Long Xi didn’t want to take Wen Zhu with her. However, she had other thoughts. If Han Fei wasn’t an enemy, she might be able to ask him to cure Wen Zhu.

With Long Xi following him, Han Fei slowed down.

However, the further he went, the more islands Han Fei found. However, these islands were several times smaller than before. The smallest island only had a radius of more than ten kilometers.

On each of these islands, there were usually only three or five people living.

Han Fei discovered that all the people living on these islands were injured. Basically, their foundation had been damaged and they could never continue to grow in this life!

Although there were few people on each island, there were still a lot of them added up.

However, Han Fei was still surprised. Although these people didn’t form an alliance with the demonic beasts, they seemed to trust the demonic beasts because these islands were just left unguarded!

Han Fei passed hundreds of thousands of kilometers, turned in another direction, and walked nearly four million kilometers more. It was full of islands on the way, some concentrated, and some dispersed.

He had seen at least tens of thousands of injured people along the way. Counting the places he hadn’t been to, there were probably hundreds of thousands of people.

During this period, Han Fei also encountered several Venerable powerhouses. However, just like Long Xi, they were all seriously injured and their foundation was damaged.

Therefore, as Han Fei walked, three Venerables followed him in addition to Long Xi and Wen Zhu.

Considering this ratio, he had only taken one road, and with Long Xi, he had encountered four seriously injured Venerables. Then, in total, there were at least twenty or thirty seriously injured Venerables.

Suddenly, Han Fei discovered that there were no more islands where the wounded lived.

There were also very few creatures in the ocean. Within ten thousand kilometers, there were only a hundred sea creatures at the Explorer level, all of which were ordinary sea demons with poor strength.

Even the number of ordinary marine creatures was rapidly decreasing.

Han Fei saw that the seabed was full of bones.

Along the way, Han Fei was quite puzzled. He never would’ve thought that after flying for a hundred thousand kilometers, there would be bones everywhere and death energy rising to the sky…

Before entering this sea area and after entering it, even the temperature had changed. Han Fei could often see undying souls crying.

Han Fei became solemn.

It wasn’t until he traveled another hundred thousand kilometers that Han Fei saw a vast land. The coverage of that land completely exceeded his perception range.

However, Han Fei could clearly see the deathly silence on the huge island.

Although this big island was also protected by seals, there were no fresh green plants inside.

The remaining plants were mostly dark green, dark purple, and black… The coast here was littered with bones. The color of the seal here was also black and gray.

The entire island seemed to be hidden in a thin film in the black fog.

“Huh…”

Han Fei landed casually on the shore, followed by four peak-level junior Venerables and Wen Zhu.

One of them said, “Long Xi, why did you bring her here? The death aura here is too strong. Wen Zhu is seriously injured. It’s not good for her to stay here for long.”

Long Xi didn’t answer but looked at Han Fei. “This is the Immortal City you wanted to come to. We’re here now. Please…”

Long Xi and the others had always been vigilant to Han Fei, but they weren’t worried.

Even if Han Fei had reached the level of a Half-King, he probably wouldn’t be able to shake the Immortal City alone.

Han Fei put on a smile and strode dozens of kilometers into the island.

Han Fei didn’t even need to use the Vast Ocean Navigator. He could guess where the Immortal City was based on the intensity of the death aura.

When Han Fei entered the island, a Half-Venerable in a black robe was already waiting. The Half-Venerable hidden under the black robe said, “Guest, please come in. The Venerables are already waiting.”

Han Fei grinned. “You learned of my arrival so quickly. It seems that you have a way to send messages!”

After all, after staying on the Scattered Stars Island for a long time, Han Fei knew that some special objects could transmit information to each other. That was the function of the star waist tag.

The black-robed man didn’t answer either. Instead, he led the others to walk on this gloomy and dead silent island.

Before long, Han Fei saw a plain of bone jars, which were enshrouded by black gas.

Han Fei was puzzled. These should be people who had just died. He could even see the inside of some bone jars and find that some people’s bodies were still intact.

The old turtle said, “These people are indeed fresh dead. However, before they died, they were not hopeless. They just killed themselves and chose to turn into undead creatures.”

Han Fei frowned. “So many bone jars, all of which are transformed into undead creatures?”

The old turtle said, “No, only certain bone jars that are enshrouded by black aura can be transformed into undead creatures. When living people switch to undead creatures, the benefit is that they can survive and keep their memories. But the bad thing is… Once they’re killed again, their existence will be completely wiped out. Their souls can’t be reincarnated, and their souls will be completely shattered. This is the price of switching to undead creatures.”

Hearing the old turtle’s explanation, Han Fei felt a bit depressed. If it wasn’t necessary, who would be willing to switch to an undead creature?

Within a hundred thousand kilometers of the Immortal City, white bones littered all over the sea and the island. God knew how many people had died since the Wall of Death existed.

After half an hour.

After they passed the creepy bone wasteland, Han Fei saw a huge city made of black rocks.

At that moment, more than 30 perceptions swept past Han Fei.

According to these perceptions and the suppressing pressure that fell on him, Han Fei realized that there should be a Half-King among them.

If Han Fei hadn’t been to the Demon Beast Union and saw more than 30 Venerables with more than a hundred Half-Venerable and a thousand Explorers, which were all undead creatures… he might have been shocked.

But now… Han Fei had more than a thousand puppets alone.

In terms of the number of Venerables, these 30-odd Venerables couldn’t even hold a single gathering on the Ten Thousand Beast Island.

More than ten kilometers away from the giant city, Han Fei stopped and sighed. “Have the human beings in the cage declined to this point?”

On the city wall, someone said in a hoarse voice, “It should still be stronger than the outside world, right?”

Han Fei smiled and said, “There are no opponents like the Black Blood City in the outside world.”

Han Fei spoke to a black-robed man on the city wall in the distance, not caring about others.

Behind Han Fei, Long Xi and the others looked at Han Fei with complicated expressions. An outsider barging into the Immortal City alone required more than a little courage.

The black-robed man didn’t answer Han Fei, but looked at Han Fei and asked, “Who are you? Why have you come?”

Han Fei casually took out his 13-star token and said loudly, “I am the current supreme commander of the Scattered Stars Island, Han Fei. I’m here to become stronger. However, after seeing the present Immortal City, I’ve decided to help you solve the threat of the Black Blood City for the time being.”

A man in a black robe sneered. “Hehe, what a big tone. More than one or two supreme commanders of the Scattered Stars Island have come, but only one who is still alive and can fight… What makes you think you’re special?”

Long Xi and the others were stunned. There was really a place called the Scattered Stars Island? Did Han Fei really come from the outside world?

Han Fei, on the other hand, said in disdain, “My name is Han Fei. I liberated the Scattered Stars Island, slaughtered all sea demons,and killed more than 20 Venerables, including a Half-King… Is this battle record enough?”
