Divine-level Base

Chapter 315 - 314: Monster

The Great Sun Sword Aura was instantly crushed by the white jade hand.

Shu Feng was sent flying by a terrifying gray aura, slamming hard against the wall. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, having broken more than a dozen ribs.

A terrifying gash appeared on the white jade hand. Gray liquid, like blood, began to drip from it.

With every drop that fell, the white jade hand rotted a little more.

"It’s working! This isn’t the Void Demon Realm, after all! This ’Great Terror’ can still be fought!"

Shu Feng took a deep breath. His bones shifted and reset as his terrifying Constitution and powerful regenerative abilities healed him in an instant. He sprang back into action, unleashing the power of his Divinity and madly striking down with Great Sun Across the Sky.

The white jade hand suddenly blurred, then exploded. An incredibly eerie gray aura surged from it and, like a bolt of lightning, slammed into Shu Feng’s body.

An icy chill instantly washed over Shu Feng. His entire brain seemed to freeze as he plunged into the deepest darkness. A searing pain wracked his soul, as if something was gnawing at it.

Just then, the five points of Divinity within Shu Feng’s body flared with a mysterious light, as if bursting into flame, and he instantly regained a sliver of consciousness.

A prompt sounded in Shu Feng’s mind: "Extract Source Evil Divine Power?"

"Extract!"

Shu Feng forced out the word with all his might.

A series of incredibly eerie wails echoed from within Shu Feng’s body as the gray aura was absorbed, vanishing into his Base Space.

The entire Base Space trembled as Source Power burned furiously.

The gray aura trembled unceasingly before finally falling into the Source Energy Evolutionary Mutation Nest. There, it was enveloped in countless layers of mucus and condensed into a large, gray egg.

Lingering fear flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes. ’So this is the "Great Terror" of the Dark Demon Wind! Truly terrifying. If I didn’t have five points of Divinity, I’d be deader than dead right now.’

Shu Feng’s strongest asset was the Half-Saint Level Swamp Dominator. But the creature was immense—a full sixty meters tall. Summoning it would expose everyone to the dangers of the wilderness.

One eerie, giant hand was already giving Shu Feng a massive headache. If they were exposed outside and encountered more of those "Great Terrors," not even the Half-Saint Level Swamp Dominator could protect him.

"Quick! Use the doors to block the stairwell!"

The moment Zhu Chenyu came to her senses, her expression changed drastically, and she shouted,

Sheng Xin pointed to several powerful members of the Blood Demon Clan and barked, "You lot, go block the door!" He was also filled with terror at the thought of that eerie hand and didn’t dare go himself, afraid of being caught by that monster again.

Gritting their teeth, several powerful members of the Blood Demon Clan hoisted up the door they had previously torn from the second floor. They rushed to the stairwell entrance and used it to barricade the opening securely.

"Open up! Please, open the door and let me in! There’s a monster chasing me out here! Please, let me in, or I’m going to die!"

A piteous voice that tugged at the heartstrings suddenly came from outside the inn’s main door. It sounded like a beautiful little girl being chased by a terrifying monster.

"Open the door! Hurry up! Someone’s being hunted out there, how can you just stand by and do nothing?"

A young man, his eyes glinting with an eerie light, suddenly flew into a frenzy and lunged for the inn’s entrance.

The color drained from Zhu Chenyu’s face. "Shu Feng, the voice of the monster outside has enchanted him!"

"Sleep!"

Shu Feng gave a slight nod. He glanced at the ordinary people around them and activated his Phantom Badge. Wisps of mysterious Badge Power spread out, enveloping the commoners.

The young man with the eerie glint in his eyes, however, was completely unaffected. He charged to the inn’s main door, intent on opening it.

The rest of the ordinary people were also unaffected by Shu Feng’s power.

Shu Feng frowned slightly. ’It’s no use? As a Badge Master, my Power of Illusion is far weaker than that monster’s power.’

"Kid, you’re courting death!"

A vicious gleam flashed in Sheng Xin’s eyes. With a flick of his fingers, two black beams of Finger Aura shot out and struck the young man, instantly blowing his head apart.

Seeing this, the other travelers who had also been getting worked up instantly calmed down. They huddled together, trembling uncontrollably.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

A series of heavy thuds came from the inn’s main door.

From the barricaded stairwell came a series of equally eerie thuds, accompanied by the horrifying, scraping sound of claws on wood.

"An eye! There’s an eye over there!"

A scantily clad woman pointed at a large hole in the wall—one that had been blasted open by a Spiritual Spear—and shrieked in terror.

Most of the people in the inn followed her finger and looked toward the large hole.

Zhu Chenyu immediately squeezed her eyes shut and shouted, "Don’t look!"

Shu Feng, however, did look at the fist-sized hole in the wall. An unnervingly bizarre eyeball, covered in blood and writhing maggots, had appeared there. It radiated an aura of pure, malevolent terror.

The moment Shu Feng saw the eye, he felt a wave of vexation wash over him and a throbbing pain flared in his own eyes. He circulated his Sun and Moon Spiritual Power, immediately suppressing both the vexation and the pain.

"No! My eyes! My eyes!"

The woman suddenly let out a bloodcurdling scream as her eyeballs rolled out of their sockets and dropped to the floor.

Gouts of blood sprayed from her empty sockets, splattering on the ground in a grotesque display.

"My eyes!"

"It hurts! It hurts so much!"

One by one, the ordinary people who had looked at the eerie eyeball screamed in agony. Their own eyes rolled out, spraying jets of blood, as they writhed and shrieked on the ground before dying horribly.

The bodies of the Blood Demon Clan Warriors who had seen the eye trembled, then their eyes exploded. They collapsed, rolling on the ground and screaming in pain.

However, the Blood Demon Clan Warriors had tenacious Life Force, so they did not die right away.

Sheng Xin, Hassina, Luna, Zhu Yi, and Zhu San merely felt some discomfort upon seeing the eerie eyeball and quickly turned their heads away.

Zhu Chenyu said, "You can’t listen, and you can’t look! Without reaching the Spirit Saint Level, even looking at those eerie eyes is extremely dangerous. Hearing the voices of those bizarre entities will tempt you and lead you to ruin."

"Oh?"

Shu Feng continued to stare at the eerie eyeball. A wave of vexation and bloodlust suddenly surged through him, making him feel as though he could only be satisfied by slaughtering everyone around him.
