Chapter 1296: Human Head Feast
Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins
On an isolated dead star, South of Cloud Thunder Star,
The gray rocky ground exploded all of a sudden. A sturdy figure appeared, his eyes sparkling with a holy light that was like electricity.
Shi Yan looked at Cloud Thunder Star and frowned.
After he had left Heaven Cloud Star, he had begun his journey of slaughter, killing all the God Clan warriors in his way including three First Sky of Incipient God Realm experts, hundreds of Ethereal God Realm, Original God Realm, and King God Realm warriors. Their deaths had made up the energy he had consumed in the Fantasy Zone and it was a little bit more than needed.
After this time of carefree and cheerful slaughter, he accumulated a deeper knowledge of the Devouring power Upanishad's abilities.
Finally, he knew that the Devouring power Upanishad took more than the Essence Qi of the dead warriors. What this power Upanishad swallowed was power. All kinds of power from any kind of creatures. It could take their energy and convert it to the pure energy. Shi Yan could take the energy from the body, the stars, the five elements, the energies that created the warriors' power Upanishads, and more.
While the others were still alive, Shi Yan could use the Devouring power Upanishad all the time. He didn't even need to wait until the others died.
Anyway, after the warriors died, their energy slowly reduced. He could take more energy when the others were still alive.
The black hole was another application of the Devouring power Upanishad that swallowed the souls. It was specialized in taking in the soul altar to create soul energy and refine the soul altar. It could help transform the soul altar and develop it until it reached a marvelous level.
Perhaps it had the similar effect as the way Imperial Dark Tribe used to train their soul altars. But Shi Yan thought it was more excellent.
Shi Yan had been wild and crazy on his slaughtering journey in Thunder Firmament Star Area and it had helped him discover the real abilities of the Devouring power Upanishad.
However, he hadn't reached Second Sky of Incipient God Realm yet. He still needed more energy to grow his God power Ancient Tree. He needed more energy, indeed.
The energy converted from three Incipient God Realm experts, hundreds of Ethereal God Realm, Original God Realm, and King God Realm experts refilled his exhausted energy but wasn't enough to break to Second Sky of Incipient God Realm.
In this journey, he found that the native forces in Thunder Firmament Star Area had always cooperated with him just like the Chen family. They had pointed out the gathering spot of the God Clan warriors and gave him the details of their realms and numbers. Shi Yan got the necessary information to prepare every time.
After this experience, Shi Yan recognized that people hated the Bradley family a lot in Thunder Firmament Star Area. Although they were subdued, they didn't want to follow them. As soon as they found the chance to attack the God Clan, they became even more excited than Shi Yan.
And it was because of their cooperative attitude that Shi Yan could carry out his plan smoothly. Today, he headed to Thunder Firmament Lake. He was ready to take Wright's head to break through to Second Sky of Incipient God Realm. However, he wasn't so sure that it would be easy today when he came to Thunder Firmament Lake. Thus, he didn't dare to act rashly. He decided to stop by Cloud Thunder Star first to check the situation.
As soon as his thought flickered, he landed on Cloud Thunder Star. Shortly after, he appeared in the center of the Thunder City. He closed his eyes to let his Soul Consciousness check the place.
No God Clan warrior was found.
Cloud Thunder Star also had the God Clan warriors base here, but Wright had asked them to come back because of Shi Yan's mad slaughter.
It was also the reason why Shi Yan had to change his thought. He had to go to the headquarters of the God Clan in Thunder Firmament Star Area: Thunder Firmament Lake.
Many warriors from different planets around Thunder Firmament Star Area often came to Thunder City. The shops in this city were always packed. Shi Yan concentrated on listening. He found that most of the conversations here were about him. They called him by various names including "God of Slaughter," "Slaughtering Star," and "the Butcher who slashes the God Clan." When they talked about him, they looked happy and joyful. They didn't even want to conceal their amusement taken from the God Clan's misfortune.
Shi Yan nodded discreetly.
Walking along this street, he knew that Wright of the Bradley family had done many evil affairs in this star area. He made people hate that they couldn't plow his ancestors' graves. Wright could live indulgently in this star area because of the God Clan's reputation. Otherwise, he would have been killed a long time ago.
Shi Yan knew that because he knew that Thunder Firmament Star Area also had Third Sky of Incipient God Realm experts from the conversations of the people on the streets. However, those experts weren't in Thunder Firmament Star Area because they were afraid of the God Clan.
Inside Thunder City, people moved back and forth like water currents. They were talking about Shi Yan on the streets, in the shops, and even in the restaurants.
He pondered for a while, smiling and sitting on a random spot in the big square of the Thunder City.
As soon as his thoughts flickered, the items stored in his Incipient Extent flew out and arranged above his head.
Shortly after, screaming and shrieking arose on the square. Many warriors around the square looked at him. They were so excited.
The human heads floating above his head were from the God Clan warriors and many of them were infamous in Thunder Firmament Star Area as the leaders guarding some important regions. People hated them a lot, though.
This was especially the case for the three heads of the three Incipient God Realm experts. The warriors here had met them before. Seeing their heads floating in the sky, the majority of warriors on the streets and in the shops cheered crazily as if they were celebrating the New Year.
Instantly, the city was boiling.
The warriors in Thunder City came when they heard the cheering. They stopped their works and gathered at the square. From a bird's view, they were packing the square like a cloud of grasshoppers.
WithShi Yan as the center, the warriors from different clans circled him in layers. They pointed at Shi Yan and shrieked. They looked so happy and satisfied.
Hundreds of God warrior's heads floated above Shi Yan's head. The warriors gathering in the square felt like they had a refreshing stream running through their hearts that washed away the resentment that had tortured them for so many years. When they saw the heads, they knew they were liberated.
Many senior people and women began to cry and sob. It seemed like they couldn't control their joy as they cried when their enemies were killed and their grudges were clear.
The great chaos in Thunder City had affected the meeting in the secret chamber. Lei Dong squinted and listened to his subordinate's report. His eyes brightened. He abruptly stood up and said, "He came. He shows off the heads of the God Clan warriors to prove his identity. He comes to Cloud Thunder Star and Thunder City to find us..."
"Old Lei, what should we do now?" asked the others.
"If he has considered us, we shouldn't be cowards anymore. Alright, I will send the Soul Consciousness to invite him here to talk," said Lei Dong.
Everybody nodded in agreement.
Lei Dong closed his eyes and released his Soul Consciousness towards Shi Yan.
Staying inside the circles of dozens of thousands of warriors on Thunder Firmament Star Area, Shi Yan just stooped and said nothing. He was waiting for the invitation from the rebellious group who dared to stand against the God Clan. The heads of the God Clan warriors here were Shi Yan's gift to them to show his goodwill.
Indeed, a magical light flashed then disappeared into his eyes.
At the same time, the heads of the God Clan experts floating in the sky exploded, turning into dust and scattering around Thunder City.
The crowd of warriors of Thunder Firmament Star Area cheered happily like they were celebrating the New Year. They threw their hands into the air, hugging and congratulating each other.
In the secret chamber of Thunder City, Shi Yan appeared all of a sudden, sitting next to Lei Dong. He squinted and asked, "Did you call me?"
Lei Dong was startled. He jolted up and said respectfully, "Lei Dong welcome the Master of the Bloodthirsty Force."
The others were still sitting, so they were baffled to see Lei Dong greeting the guest. They immediately followed him and stood up to greet Shi Yan as Lei Dong had done. "Welcome, Master of the Bloodthirsty Force."
Shi Yan rose his arms, his face casual. "No need to be too serious. Please sit down."
Everybody then sat down.
"You are Lei Bao, right? I used to hear about you. You were the Deputy Hegemon of Thunder Firmament League. Because the League was destroyed, you don't have the power to resist against the God Clan. Then, you've begun to seclude. Is it true?" Shi Yan talked calmly.
Lei Dong nodded and said, "I'm called Lei Dong now. I didn't expect that you have heard about me, Sir. It's my honor."
"Right, it doesn't matter with the name as long as you don't forget your past." Shi Yan curled his lips and asked, "You called me here not to tell me that you've changed your name, right? Okay, tell me what do you think?"
"Sir, you came Cloud Thunder Star to find me. I wonder what you want me to do. As long as I can do it, I will do my best. I just hope you would agree with me on one thing." Lei Dong looked at Shi Yan deeply. "Agree with me to expel all the God Clan warriors from our Thunder Firmament Star Area. As long as you agree with that, I can die for you!"
"Old Lei!"
"Old Lei!"
"Old Lei!"
The others discolored as they couldn't believe it.
Lei Dong waved his hand and said, "For the future of Thunder Firmament Star Area, I can pay with everything! It's not that I'm afraid of death, I just want a brighter future for Thunder Firmament Star Area. Today, if Master agrees with me, our Thunder Firmament Star Area will have that future. My life is in your hand!"
Hearing him, the other leaders of the forces who were still hesitant felt their hearts stimulate. They were so touched and their eyes became more resolute.
Shi Yan was surprised. He looked at Lei Dong, nodded, and then said, "I agree with you."
Before Shi Yan came here, he didn't think that Lei Dong would be that resolute because he thought that an old man who had to live and seclude to hide himself from the God Clan was like a cunning rat and wouldn't dare to stand up against the God Clan.
Shi Yan knew that he was wrong. Looking at Lei Dong's fierce reaction, he was surprised and touched.
"What do you want me to do? Please do tell. If this Lei Dong can help you, I will do my best. Even if I have to die, I will make everything alright for you," said Lei Dong resolutely.
"I don't need you to die. What I want is simple. I want to know what kind of experts are staying in Thunder Firmament Lake. Have they sent any new expert there or not?" explained Shi Yan.
"Oh, simple. They've just sent two Second Sky of Incipient God Realm experts. However, the Sea Territory of our Thunder Firmament Star Area has encountered some problem. After those two arrived, the Sea Territory has become turbulent and the passages became ineffective at the same time. I think there are no God Clan warriors who will come later. Wright got a headache because of this. I heard that another Incipient God Realm warrior wanted to come but he was stopped outside," Lei Dong said, his face puzzled.
Shi Yan's eyes brightened up as he laughed.
He knew someone had his back and erased the rising obstacles.
