Twisted Ideals

Above Willow City, Shisui simply waved his hand casually.

The Composite Radiant Feathers in the Chain Bomb, which were still detonating, suddenly stopped exploding.

Immediately afterwards, the Psychic Energy that had spilled into the atmosphere from the mass death of creatures in Willow City seemed to be attracted.

They surged toward Shisui in an endless stream.

Then, the energy was absorbed and purified by the large number of Radiant Feathers released all at once, and stored as Flesh Crystals.

Because these energies may contain unwanted components—the energy of planets mixed in.

Therefore, Radiant Feathers needs to spend more time filtering.

While Shisui was waiting for the energy to be filtered, Li Nai'an and Miao Xingyu set off.

Accompanying them was an elite force of the Undying Legion, following far behind.

These elite troops will not make a move on the way there, but will instead hide themselves to provide a backup plan for the final evacuation.

These Heaven Realm Awakened were naturally unable to kill Shisui.

However, the Undying Cells in their bodies are enough to allow them to last for several more rounds, until the Demon Race's Heaven-Controlling Realm makes a move.

In this way, Miao Xingyu, the biological detector responsible for collecting energy information from the Ghoul Heaven-Controlling Realm's body, can successfully escape.

Hu Lingling led the elite of the Undying Legion, following at a distance behind Li Nai'an and Miao Xingyu.

She volunteered for this task.

She was genuinely curious about the strength of this newly promoted Heaven-Controlling Realm and wanted to fight him.

Even if this means certain death.

To be honest, she wasn't afraid of death; in fact, she longed for it.

But as a member of the Undying Legion, and as a former test subject.

She knew very well that she was unlikely to die.

It wasn't because she particularly wanted to live.

Rather, it is that extremely strong will to survive that is a "common ailment" of all surviving members of the Undying Legion.

It was their instinctive desire to live that allowed them to survive the experimental period.

It is precisely because of their tenacity that they are so difficult to break free from.

Furthermore, this problem that plagued all members of the Undying Legion gave rise to an "ideal" that existed universally in the hearts of every member.

To be killed by a powerful enemy on the battlefield.

In this way, they could pin their hopes of either overthrowing the Demon Race's leadership or destroying the Demon Race on that powerful enemy.

In their view, only this kind of death can truly free them from the karma of this life, and is the liberation they have longed for.

This distorted, irrational, and pathetic ideal made life a little easier for the members of the Undying Legion in the mire.

Therefore, the vast majority of members attached their precarious mental state to it.

This included Hu Lingling.

Moreover, because his strength reached the Heaven Realm, he also held the rank of colonel.

Therefore, Hu Lingling saw more and her "ideals" were also greater compared to those of the other members of the Undying Legion.

She hoped that the person who could liberate her would be powerful enough to destroy all intelligent beings.

Human Race or Sea Race alike.

The rulers of every race are rotten to the core.

If everyone is experimenting on intelligent beings, even their own kind, then who is truly superior?

It would be better if none of them lived, and everyone died!

This thought only occasionally crossed Hu Lingling's mind.

She dared not think about it too much, for fear that the Undying Cells in her body would detect it.

If he were judged to be disloyal to the Demon Race as a result, he would die on the experimental table.

She would surely die with her eyes wide open in disbelief.

Therefore, she never revealed even a trace of her ideals.

Until this moment.

A new Heaven-Controlling Realm has appeared.

Furthermore, he is a member of the Heaven-Controlling Realm who is wanted by all races.

At this moment, she saw the possibility of realizing her dream.

With Li Nai'an's escort, Miao Xingyu arrived at a point three kilometers Willow City at an extremely fast speed.

This place is far enough that the Undying Cells are enough to temporarily reduce the presence of a living person on my body, thus concealing my tracks.

Furthermore, given the speed of Earth Realm Awakened, even if they are not good at traveling, it would not take them more than half a minute to travel three kilometers.

Li Nai'an hid herself, keeping a close watch on Willow City not far away.

Then we'll see Miao Xingyu.

Miao Xingyu took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

He actually really wanted to go on strike.

But the Undying Cells within his body caused him waves of pain, urging him to carry out the command.

He prayed in his heart that this Heaven-Controlling Realm would discover his weakness and kill him completely, not just his body.

When Miao Xingyu got within about two kilometers of Shisui, a sense of crisis instantly overwhelmed me.

The next moment, Radiant Feathers appeared out of thin air and flashed by.

"Pfft!"

Warm, bright red liquid flowed out.

Miao Xingyu was slashed in the throat and fell into the forest below.

Shisui received the sensation transmitted by Radiant Feathers.

It's strange; even though I hit the target, I have a feeling that I haven't completely killed the prey.

The peculiar feeling instantly attracted Shisui's attention.

He extended his senses and saw the "corpse" in Miao Xingyu.

In reality, there were no signs of life.

But this is only on a physical level.

Under the Kakugan, Miao Xingyu's dazed soul began to transfer energy into its body.

The solidified soul gradually eroded, replaced by the gradual healing of the wounds on the body.

This near-resurrection ability is extremely rare.

Although Shisui didn't need it, he still considered collecting it.

He focused more of his attention on Miao Xingyu and its surroundings.

Then, unsurprisingly, they discovered Li Nai'an, who was lurking nearby and exuded the aura of Undying Cells.

And in the distance, an army of Demon Race with an even stronger aura of Undying Cells.

Wow, this is such a pleasant surprise!

Apart from the Miao Xingyu, all the other Demon Races in Shisui's perception were none other than Heaven Realm Awakened.

Moreover, its aura is profound and its Psychic Energy reserves are solid.

A quick glance revealed not only no mediocre individuals who had been forcibly promoted, but also a host of high-quality performers.

Makes a profit!

In order to prevent these little snacks from escaping, Shisui decided not to touch the Earth Realm Awakened who had the talent for resurrection.

He quickly absorbed all of Willow City's energy.

Then, it eagerly tore through space and left.

Only after his aura had dissipated somewhat did Li Nai'an dare to approach.

First, they bypassed the "corpse" in the Miao Xingyu and went ahead to further confirm whether Heaven-Controlling Realm had already left.

She only glanced at it from afar.

Willow City was a scene of utter devastation, yet no trace of blood, flesh, or bones remained.

It has clearly been cleaned up.

Finding no trace of the Heaven-Controlling Realm, Li Nai'an dared not delay and immediately returned to the side of Miao Xingyu's "corpse".

Li Nai'an picked up his body and head and ran towards the army.

Just as she successfully reunited with the army, a thick fog suddenly enveloped them.

"Damn it! Retreat!"

Even though she didn't know where the fog came from, Hu Lingling immediately gave the order to return.

Something unusual must be going on, especially since the Heaven-Controlling Realm only left this place a second ago.

Having valuable experimental subjects and energy data from the new Heaven-Controlling Realm, they dared not gamble.

However, the fog field released by Shisui is not something that can be escaped so easily.

The dense fog began to draw Psychic Energy from the air, thus restricting the internal life forms' ability to replenish their own energy.

Just as Shisui had surrounded this Demon Race army...

On the other side, within the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range.

At this moment, the Demon Race 'Heaven-Controlling Realm Jiqu, is conversing with the Heaven-Controlling Realm of the Human Race and the Sea Race.
