Chapter 443
by fanqienovelChapter 443: Enemies of the Previous Generation, Shui Suqing
“The regeneration is indeed very fast.”
Yun Ye clenched his fist and swung it fiercely, delivering dozens of strikes. Each punch seriously shattered the muscles and bones of the live zombie, pulverizing it completely.
The live zombie resisted, bursting with tremendous Demonic Power to enhance its speed, which exceeded the speed of sound several times over. But it was too slow, far too slow, and it had no chance to resist in front of Yun Ye, with all its muscles and bones shattered on the spot.
Boom!
It was blown away, a large amount of black blood splattering everywhere. Yun Ye intentionally targeted all areas, completely destroying its remaining blood, leaving it a dried, ragged body that seemed to lack bones.
However, as its Demonic Power contracted, the damage on a physical level instantly healed, regenerating quickly, almost faster than one could respond.
Yun Ye did not stop his movements; white air currents gathered as he shaped his life force. However, Shui Mingqin had not yet caught a glimpse of this life force, which Yun Ye had already grasped in his palm.
It was a miniature star ring, held tightly in his hand, unseen by Shui Mingqin.
Then, the live zombie charged at him, and its massive Demonic Power transformed into giant claws aimed to strike.
Yun Ye didn’t even glance.
With a single punch…
The live zombie shattered on the spot, breaking from head to toe into hundreds of pieces!
Generally speaking, being crushed to such an extent meant that even the strongest regeneration ability wouldn’t have a chance to manifest.
Yet this live zombie did not comply!
It revived once again, each piece of flesh appearing to have its own consciousness, spreading forth enormous Demonic Power to connect with one another, forcibly piecing itself together.
At first, this reassembly was grotesque, but the live zombie reorganized itself in a short time, unnatural facets returning to a natural state, becoming human-shaped once more.
“This self-healing is no different from resurrection; it truly… is terrifying!”
Yun Ye’s eyes flickered with flames.
As the live zombie lunged at him, its body turned to ashes inch by inch.
With his Rainbow Eye’s red hue, he awakened the capability to generate high temperatures just by looking, without any external flames. A target would directly reform at the molecular level, requiring a defensive ability such as completely enveloping oneself with spirit energy to withstand it.
Unprepared individuals could be burnt out by a single glance; this was an ultimate eye technique for a first encounter kill.
“My physique has improved again. Speaking of which, can I only enhance my physique?”
Yun Ye mused, perhaps not. Even if the body grew more powerful, it had its limits. Earlier, Shui Wuge had also displayed a surge in the power of Spiritual Law.
He tightened his fist, feeling exceptionally good. The simple act of killing weaker opponents to grow stronger was incomparably joyful.
Shui Mingqin observed him, her slender fingers tapping with a bit more force, causing cracks to suddenly spread across the armrest.
“This level of control! The concentrated power has surprisingly spread into a sphere!”
She squinted her enchanting eyes slightly. With her Spirit Sense, she could follow the traces even when the undead being turned to ashes.
In her perception, the undead was burned to nothing by a flame that erupted from within, the control so intricate it was hard to describe—at least, she could not achieve it.
Due to the lack of spirit energy, Foreign Warriors do not hunt disaster beasts, resulting in their power not matching that of past cultivators. To grow stronger, they could only enhance their control.
In reality, she had never seen a technique controlled to such a height. If it were normal flames, it could only ignite from the outside, burning inward gradually. But her child was different, compressing the power to its utmost limit, exploding into a spherical form within gaps…
Relying on this move, the eight-year-old child instantly defeated a high-level monster without using his bloodline power, a feat that only formal members could achieve!
If he began hunting disaster beasts, what would happen then?
This child’s strength clearly exceeds everyone else, possessing a value beyond that of the female Super Geniuses of the Shui family!
“Clap, clap, clap…”
Yun Ye and Shui Mingqin turned their gazes toward one side of the trial ground, where a woman in a red dress walked out, continuously clapping her hands.
This woman was unique, with a striking red line extending from the corner of her mouth to her left cheek. The red line resembled ink splatters, thick and rough, seemingly meant to create an impression like that of a slit-faced woman.
However, the problem was that this mark only appeared on her left cheek, making it very unbalanced and misaligned.
“No wonder she is the head of the family; even her son possesses such talent. Passing the Second Trial in just a few seconds is something that has only occurred once in the history of the Shui family a hundred years ago! This is about to create new history; perhaps he could be the first male head of the family?”
The woman’s tone was laced with sarcasm.
“Siqing, do you have any complaints?”
Shui Mingqin asked lightly.
“Not at all, I am just very envious of my sister’s assets, hehe… I hope the assets you hope for can achieve that step!”
As Shui Suqing spoke, she transformed into a spray of water and vanished.
She defined Yun Ye as an "asset," likely implying that once he grows up, he would be harvested, especially in this world where one could kill to level up. Ming Ju probably met with her end due to the same reason.
What truly caught Yun Ye’s attention, however, was the woman’s emotional state.
(Does she completely not believe…?)
Yun Ye possessed a special Innate Spiritual Law with extraordinary insight into everything, allowing him to clearly sense this woman’s emotions.
In her mind, it was impossible for a man to become the head of the family, even if he crushed the live zombies.
And this mindset was also something Yun Ye sensed from Shui Mingqin; even after defeating the second monster, her attitude remained unchanged.
They spoke one way but thought another, and he never expected their methods to evolve…
Yun Ye had no desire to expose this. He turned to Shui Mingqin and said, “Please start the Third Trial. Can I become the captain directly after passing?”
“Indeed, as long as you pass the Third Trial, you will gain the privilege to directly appoint a team to become the captain,” Shui Mingqin replied, retracting her gaze.
“Great, then let’s begin,” Yun Ye said.
Regular members, elite members, Vice Captain, Captain, followed by the Deputy Minister and the Minister.
Passing the Third Trial to directly become the captain meant starting at the fourth level, saving an incredible amount of time.
This path and privilege were shortcuts reserved for Super Geniuses.
“The Third Trial is against spiritual zombies, a spiritual zombie that previously wiped out twenty elite members. Its strength is already close to that of a Vice Captain.”
Shui Mingqin waved her hand, causing the space to tremble violently, and a man, whose powerful aura still emanated even though he was sealed with chains, appeared.
This man had pale skin, tightly shut eyes, and his body was indistinguishable from that of an ordinary person. He was one of the various advanced forms of the undead being.
Spiritual Zombie!
The first spiritual zombie Yun Ye encountered was named Shi Qing, and it was very weak, at the level of a high-level monster of the lower tier, not even stepping into chaos.
Having just completed its evolution, it had little power or experience, relying solely on the knowledge contained in its bloodline to fight. Even the initially weak Yun Ye could easily defeat it, making it a classic beginner elite monster, more capable of bullying ordinary cultivators than competing with someone from another world.
But this one was different.
Completely different.
It was far too strong, existing on an entirely different level!
