44 mission points!
“In such a short time, did Jiang Yichun kill two inferiors Undying?” Wang Ye looked at the mission points on the Soul Commander.
One medium Undying was worth 3 mission points.
One inferior Undying was worth 1 mission point.
Normally, they should have 42 mission points.
The extra 2 points didn’t just appear out of thin air.
Refresh the location.
Not far away.
“Could it be that she and we are targeting the same thing?” Wang Ye pondered lightly.
Even though their routes were different, it seemed like everyone had the same destination.
“Too reckless,” Wang Ye thought to himself.
Despite Jiang Yichun’s considerable strength, being on the same level as Dongheng Wanyi, charging alone into the rear of the death curse race was akin to entering the lion’s den.
While he was contemplating, Dongheng Wanyi had finished collecting the spoils of war and approached.
“One top-grade supreme treasure, two high-grade indestructible artifacts, and the rest are medium to low-grade,” Dongheng Wanyi reported.
“You can hold onto them for now,” Wang Ye shrugged off the minor gains.
Apart from the top-grade supreme treasure, which was worth a few star beads, the rest didn’t even add up to one star bead.
At this point, he could easily earn several hundred-star beads by crafting a top-grade indestructible artifact.
For him, the most valuable thing was evolution points!
After the recent slaughter and the accumulation from before, his evolution points had once again surpassed 30 points!
This meant that his cosmic energy and origin power could ascend to the next level!
It was swift!
Wang Ye accessed his interface.
“Would you like to spend 30 evolution points to advance to the next stage of origin power?”
“Yes!”
Whoosh! Wang Ye entered his space of consciousness.
Origin power and cosmic energy were two fundamental realms.
Three stages constituted one level. In the classics area of the Newborn Fate World, Wang Ye was well-versed in cultivation knowledge.
Given the limits of the human body and without crossing the cycle of reincarnation, one could only control origin power up to the sixth stage!
With the attainment of the fifth stage, a breakthrough was natural!
Walla!
Wang Ye opened his eyes.
He felt the original power surging within his body.
After gaining insight into the origin of the body, although he still couldn’t autonomously absorb the origin, he could store a small amount of origin power.
His body was like a container reinforced to its limits, now filled with much more origin power, as if he had gained many more bullets.
The advancement in the realm of origin power directly improved his utilization efficiency, strengthening control and outbursts of origin power!
Simultaneously, it also enhanced his proficiency in the path of material.
“You seem… different?” Dongheng Wanyi stared at Wang Ye.
“After the battle, I felt some insights, so I comprehended a bit, and my realm increased by a tiny bit,” Wang Ye explained earnestly.
“Hmph, I’d have to be a fool to believe you,” Dongheng Wanyi scoffed.
In this day and age, no one believed anyone’s honesty.
Wang Ye also felt emotional.
The two walked towards Qing Yu and Qifeng Zhenqing.
After consecutive battles, they even engaged in solo fights with powerful medium Undying Lifeforms on the battlefield, and both women sustained some injuries.
“Are you okay?” Wang Ye asked.
“Of course!” Qing Yu raised her petite head, her slender waist feeling as though it could snap.
“I’m fine,” Qifeng Zhenqing said stubbornly.
Both girls looked soft and cute on the outside but were tough on the inside.
“Hurry up,” Dongheng Wanyi said sternly.
“Alright, let’s continue,” Wang Ye decided.
In the death curse race’s camp, located in the wilderness of the Pentagram Continent, was surrounded by swirling chaos fog.
In cages made of special black metal, many robust children were imprisoned.
Physically strong but covered in wounds and blood.
Their eyes brimmed with anger and determination as they pounded on the black cages relentlessly.
“Let us out!”
“We’ll kill you all! I’ll avenge my parents!”
“You ugly creatures! Rot in hell!”
A member of the death curse race with a cold expression, approached. He extended his right hand, covered in black runes, and grabbed the loudest shouting boy. Lifting him by the neck, he threatened, “Make another sound, and I’ll end you!”
The boy from the barbarian star race blushed but couldn’t utter a word.
Crack! His neck snapped.
The death curse race member released his grip, and the barbarian star race’s boy fell heavily to the ground, clutching his broken neck. Despite his agony, he didn’t make a sound, gritting his teeth and muttering, “I’ll kill you!”
“Quite resilient,” the death curse race member sneered.
“Otherwise, why would the lords of the Poison-Curse race be interested?” another undying lifeform mocked.
“Isn’t it because they’re young, strong, and enjoyable to trample?” another death curse race’s member chuckled, licking his lips with a long, red tongue.
“Be careful with your words!” Commander Karras commanded, casting a cold gaze over the three.
The three inferior Undying fell silent and dared not speak further.
Commander Karras patrolled the area before returning to the camp’s center.
“Milord, everything is normal,” Commander Karras said solemnly.
“Guard well, don’t be careless,” Chief Commander Newman’s voice was icy, emanating the formidable aura of a superior undying.
“Yes, milord,” Commander Karras responded. “When will we send out the children of the barbarian star race?”
“There are too few, we need at least 1000 barbarian star children,” Chief Commander Newman stated calmly.
“So many?” Commander Karras furrowed his brow.
“The mission is the same for all four curse races,” Chief Commander Newman explained. “The spirit curse race is nearly finished.”
“Why does the Poison-Curse race need so many children from the Pentagram Continent?” Commander Karras questioned.
“It’s said to be for some kind of fusion experiment. I’m not entirely sure,” Chief Commander Newman waved his hand dismissively. “Don’t ask unnecessary questions. Focus on your tasks, and be cautious. Don’t let the human powerhouses take advantage of you.”
“Yes, milord,” Commander Karras acknowledged before stepping back.
In the vast wilderness, five handsome and beautiful young men and women followed closely behind a charming woman dressed provocatively, her attire bearing the emblem of the Infinite World of Slaughter.
“The disciples of Primordial Star are incredibly strong,” one of the female disciples remarked admiringly.
“While the five of us only managed to kill two inferiors Undying, she single-handedly took down two,” another young man commented with admiration in his eyes.
“She must be the top disciple of Primordial Star,” Captain Li Mingrui
asserted. “The seven supreme factions are more or less equal. Don’t underestimate yourself. I doubt there’s anyone stronger than her in Primordial Star.”
The team members nodded in agreement.
“Captain, if we continue to follow her, can we complete the mission?” the female disciple inquired.
Captain Li Mingrui nodded thoughtfully. “The wilderness is fraught with danger. Even if we don’t perish, we might stumble. With her scouting skills, we can conserve a lot of energy. And judging by her performance so far, her scouting abilities are exceptional.”
“Indeed,” Deputy Captain Lan Minmin concurred. “Her intuition and reflexes are remarkable. Not only is she skilled in combat, but she truly deserves to be the top disciple of Primordial Star. By following her, we might just locate the death curse race’s camp.”
“Yes, captain!”
As they traversed the barbarian star sub-continent,
Wang Ye’s group of four ventured into the wilderness.
“Isn’t the death curse race’s base located in the sub-continent?” Qing Yu queried with curiosity.
“The Pentagram Continent is no ordinary chaos continent, its essence is a gem treasure of the Great Path,” Wang Ye explained. “Because it’s a unified entity, teleportation channels can only be established by the alien star race in specific locations.”
“Moreover, the wilderness zone is vast and boundless, even the six stars races of the Pentagram Continent haven’t fully explored it, making it highly concealed.”
“So, the death curse race’s base is most likely here.”
“You know so much, Wang Ye!” Qifeng Zhenqing exclaimed, her eyes sparkling.
“Showing affection every day…” Dongheng Wanyi muttered sarcastically.
However, what Qifeng Zhenqing said was correct.
Although they were initially a bit slow, following Wang Ye’s lead made everything smooth sailing without any mishaps.
And if there were any, they were resolved effortlessly.
There was a sense of having a brilliant strategist in Wang Ye.
Indeed, Wang Ye had the aura of a seasoned general.
However…
” I’ m getting closer and closer to Jiang Yichun,” Dongheng Wanyi remarked, observing the location on the soul controller.
It was unclear whether Wang Ye’s approach was intentional or not, but he seemed to be gradually closing in on Jiang Yichun.
This guy…
Could it be a scheme to catch people?
“Jiang Yichun entered the Wilderness before us,” Wang Ye noted, looking at Dongheng Wanyi. “In a short period, she has consecutively slain four inferior Undying. She likely shares our objective.”
“Unless she’s searching for treasure or opportunities, the likelihood of encountering the death curse race in the wild area covered by chaos fog is much lower than in the barbarian star sub-continent. There’s no reason for her to come here.”
“She possesses an incredibly sharp intuition. When there’s no clear direction, following her is a wise choice.”
The two girls nodded in agreement.
Jiang Yichun might be difficult to get along with, but that didn’t necessarily mean she was a bad person.
In the wilderness,
Jiang Yichun moved with ghostly grace, darting through the world enshrouded in chaotic mist.
With her ultimate talent, ‘Superperception’, she possessed extraordinary intuition and reaction.
Not only was her sixth sense remarkably acute, but her perception of danger was also exceptional.
“Is it here?”
“It seems like we’re getting close…”
Jiang Yichun focused intently.
Sensing her surroundings, her sweet face gleamed.
Her intuition told her she was getting closer to her goal.
Suddenly, Jiang Yichun shuddered and halted in midair.
Danger!
Extremely perilous!
Jiang Yichun’s hair stood on end, her face taut.
Go or not?
Jiang Yichun tightly pursed her red lips.
Under normal circumstances, it would be fine. Avoiding risks was paramount.
However, since leaving the team, she’d found nothing.
Watching Wang Ye and the others effortlessly complete their advancement mission made her even more conflicted.
She wanted to prove herself!
No need for a team. She alone sufficed!
“I’ll risk it. At worst, I’ll be resurrected!” Jiang Yichun resolved.
Seemingly high-risk, but at most, resurrection awaited.
Without trying, how could she seize the opportunity?
Whoosh! She flew out again.
Speed increasing!
Jiang Yichun gritted her teeth as her extraordinary intuition kept warning her.
Behind her, the five-member team from the Infinite World of Slaughter closely followed.
Suddenly…
“This is…?” Jiang Yichun abruptly halted, her expression shifting.
Many death curse race members were still alive!
And there were massive cages!
Could this be… the death curse race’s camp?
“Boom!” Terrifying flames descended as the five-stage worlds pressed down!
Monstrous curse power descended. Led by Commander Kallas, a group of undying beings surged out of the camp.
“Human, you’re asking for death!” Commander Kallas bellowed as black runes enveloped his body.
His killing intent surged as he headed straight for Jiang Yichun!
