Chapter 700: Volunteer

Translator: Sigma Editor: Hitesh

This place should be the foreign land, but it neither had the sun, moon, stars, nor usable heaven and earth energy. This environment was too extreme.

It wasn’t easy to survive in such a meteorolite sea, let alone cultivating or breaking to the higher realms. It was just a dream here.

The hope in their hearts collapsed directly as soon as they arrived. They had a feeling that they could never see the dawn again.

For the time being, everybody kept silent.

After a while, Kante of the Dark Spirit Clan suddenly shouted with his gloomy face. "Bao Ao, is this the place of hope you said? You’ve brought me to a dead road."

Corpse Chief, Zenith inside the Yin Written Charm Scripture, and the creature with the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame, got angry. Energy rippled from them, as if they wanted to take back justice.

Bao Ao and Jie Ji couldn’t snap back. Looking at the meteorolite sea in front of them, which was even more desolate than the First Demon Area, they smiled miserably, as they had no solution.

"If we start a fight in this place, no one could get any benefits." Shi Yan glared at the Yin Written Charm Scripture, talking faintly. "Without the energy to supply, when we fight, we can’t refill our power. I think we will die earlier."

Even if the True God Realm warriors used the top-grade Essence Crystals in the Grace Mainland to refill their power, it was like putting salt into the ocean.

Although Shi Yan had many top-grade Essence Crystals in his Storage Ring, if they battled, those crystals couldn’t supply the energy used by even one strike.

If they ran out of energy, it was impossible to survive in this perilous area.

His words worked. The four people calmed down their intention of attacking them.

"Can we go back?" Zenith’s feeble voice came from the Yin Written Charm Scripture. "The Grace Mainland’s our homeland. Although its energy was about to reach the end... at least we still have some. It’s much better than this place. If we can return, I won’t care about what your Demon Clan’s done anymore."

Bao Ao and Jie Ji beamed a forced smile while shaking their heads, as they had no way to come back.

Shi Yan snorted. "The bone formation has exploded into dust. How could we get back? Don’t talk nonsense."

"Kid, it’s all because of you! You're Shi Yan, right? You weren’t nice at all in the Grace Mainland. You killed my fellows. If you provoke me, even if I have to waste my energy, I will still kill you!" Zenith shouted from the Yin Written Charm Scripture.

Waves of soul fluctuation surged vehemently from the Yin Written Charm Scripture like a soul tornado, engulfing Shi Yan.

Shi Yan didn't change his face, but he was shivering inside. He could feel the sacrificial altar in his head seeming to be urged, as if it wanted to get out of his head.

Zenith had reached the King God Realm, but his energy had been lost significantly. That was why he couldn’t take the upper hand in the battle with Bao Ao and Jie Ji.

Bao Ao and Jie Ji were both at the Third Sky of True God Realm, with one step in the King God Realm. Before Zenith could recover his competence, he still would have to struggle hard.

However, it wasn’t a big deal to fight with Shi Yan.

"Zenith, you can try. I’m not sure who will die first." Jie Ji grinned fiendishly, his face crazy. This man was inborn savage. He would never stand any threat.

Bao Ao kept silent, but fighting will was seething in his dark pupils. He looked like he would burst out insanely if someone provoked him.

The Demon Clan was combative. It was the wildest and most ferocious clan among the big clans. Sometimes, even if they knew it would be harmful, they would drag the opponents to death together.

As Zenith saw Bao Ao and Jie Ji protect Shi Yan, he was enraged. However, he didn’t dare to call for a battle at this moment, so he kept his mouth shut.

"What to do then?" Corpse Chief was calm. He spoke up when he saw the others were quiet now. "Who knows how to get out of this place? Staying here isn't a good solution. We have no idea about this place, and we are consuming our energy every second. We can't endure for a long time. We need to find the exit quickly."

Bao Ao shrugged, swinging his arms begrudgingly. "I have no idea."

"This place’s a meteorolite sea. Seems like there’s something outside the meteorolite sea, preventing the stars from entering this place. If we can cross this meteorolite sea, perhaps we can find the way out." Pondering for a while, Shi Yan suddenly said. "However, I'm afraid of dangers hiding behind those meteorolites. I don't know what would happen if we do that."

"Nonsense!" Zenith couldn’t help but scold. "Who doesn’t recognize the dangers in between the meteorolites. Your words are useless. If you have the guts, and you aren’t afraid of death, you can try first. Let’s see if you can cross it."

Shi Yan got angry as he harrumphed. "If you have a good solution, I want to hear if you don’t mind."

Zenith didn’t say anything.

"We can only cross the meteorolite sea. We have no choice, and we can’t stay here for a long time. If we’ve consumed much of our energy, it would be harder to cross the sea," The dim halo suddenly said, after having been silent since the beginning. "I can go there first. If it’s too dangerous, I can always come back."

He paused for a while and then continued. "You, that human kid, you come with me. I don’t have a body. I’m afraid I won’t be able to sense dangers. If you go with me, we can see the dangers between the meteorolites clearer."

Kante, Corpse Chief, and Zenith got cheered up and nodded continually.

"Yin Spirit, your suggestion is not bad. We agree," said Zenith.

He didn't know what the name of the other was, but since he had the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame, he always called him Yin Spirit. The other had no objection, as he accepted this addressing.

Kante and Corpse Chief nodded to show their agreement.

"No!" Jie Ji suddenly laughed evilly. "Good calculation, Yin Spirit. You think we don’t know you want Shi Yan’s heaven flames? Aren’t you still waiting for such a good chance to snatch Shi Yan’s heaven flame to increase your power?"

Bao Ao beamed a faint smile. His attitude was clear - he didn’t agree.

"This way would benefit us all," Zenith couldn’t help but talk from the Yin Written Charm Scripture. "Bao Ao, Jie Ji, if you don’t agree, don’t blame us for having no mercy! This way doesn’t work, that way doesn’t work… And you have no solution. Hurry up, or don’t blame us later on."

"Yin Spirit has volunteered, so of course, you guys have to find someone to cooperate with him. We won't let you take advantage of us," Kante shouted. "If Shi Yan can’t go, you Demon Clan should send another one to try the dangers in between those meteorolites. Send someone to replace him. We won’t have any objection then."

After Kante said that, they immediately divided into two sides. Shi Yan and the Demon Clan was one team, and the other four formed the other team.

According to him, Yin Spirit from their team had volunteered to go, so the Demon Clan should send someone to survey this area too. If Shi Yan didn’t want to go, one from Bao Ao, Jie Ji, Bo Ruo, or Gu Da Si had to go with him. This was to be fair, they said.

Bao Ao and Jie Ji wanted to stay something, but Shi Yan spoke up, "I have no problem with that."

He turned around, looking at the two leaders of Demon Clan and chuckled. "Don’t worry. I think I can survive those energy tornados."

"What we worry isn't only the tornadoes. We are worried about someone else!" Jie Ji put on his savage face, looking at Yin Spirit. "Some beings are more dangerous than the energy tornados. You shouldn't take responsibility recklessly. These folks can trap you badly, you know?"

Normally, soul class living forms could be immune to almost all kinds of dangers. Although Yin Spirit looked generous as he volunteered to take risks, he surely had some dark schemes. Otherwise, he wouldn’t want to drag Shi Yan with him.

"It’s alright. I think people should be calm and honest in the given situation." Shi Yan grinned, and didn’t wait for Bao Ao and Jie Ji to talk more. He said abruptly, "I’m going now. I’ll wait for you in there. You have to go, okay?"

Then, before Bao Ao and Jie Ji could stop him, he turned into a beam of light, shooting into the dark, cold void in front of them like a meteor.

As soon as he got into the void, he disappeared immediately, and his living energy fluctuation seemed to vanish into thin air too. The hotshots standing on the meteorolite couldn’t sense him anymore.

Everybody was startled, as fear arose in their hearts. They were scared of the areas between those meteorolites even more.

Even though Yin Spirit had said that he wanted to pioneer that area, seeing the anomaly of space, he regretted his decision immediately. He lingered, not wanting to go anymore.

Bao Ao and Jie Ji put on a cold visage. Evil light sparkled in their eyes, looking at that dim halo.

Kante, Corpse Chief, and the Yin Written Charm Scripture also looked at him, as if they were urging him to move.

Yin Spirit had to go. He swayed at his spot for a while before gingerly flying towards the direction Shi Yan left. At this moment, everybody could see bunches of Yin spirits and wandering ghosts appearing from that dim halo. They were showing their fangs and claws, which could tingle people’s scalp.

"After surveying the place, you should hurry to come back. We will discuss and find the solution." Zenith pretended to be nice, giving advice. Then, he continued to talk calmly. "Be careful. This foreign land’s dangerous. Don’t fall into any traps."

Yin Spirit cursed under his breath. Anyway, he had no choice but to follow Shi Yan.

Bao Ao’s team exchanged looks. They quieted down, gazing at the cold, dark area in front of their eyes, releasing the Soul Consciousness to sense their journey, in vain.

Everybody felt more insecure. As anxiety rose in their hearts, their eyes got distressed, thinking that they were too careless in entering the foreign land this time.
