Chapter 488: Chapter 197: Crushing Victory, One Against a Mob

It was like a torrential downpour; the land for several miles around Thunder Marsh Lake became moist as the lake’s water fell like rain.

Amidst the falling water, a figure stepped through the air and landed on the shore.

Fang Xing was glowing with vigor.

He broke open the Fierce Beast’s corpse and took out a massive Beast Essence.

It was just like the Inner Core of Demons and Monsters.

It contained astonishing energy.

He refined its flesh and blood, transforming it into a huge sphere of Qi Blood Essence. Fang Xing then stored it away along with the Beast Essence.

This was the first Demon Emperor Level Fierce Beast he had killed.

He had secured thirty million Enhancement Points.

This one beast was worth more than all the Demon Kings and Great Demons he had killed before combined.

Killing Demon Emperor Level Fierce Beasts was much more cost-effective.

His points also instantly shot up by one hundred.

In one go, he broke into the top ten on the points leaderboard!

However, compared to the top three, the gap was still huge.

As the All Heavens Life and Death Talisman circulated, he devoured a massive amount of tempestuous Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

While others recovered by gradually absorbing energy, the All Heavens Life and Death Wheel restored his power by devouring it in massive quantities.

The True Essence Power he had consumed was completely restored in just a few short breaths.

"The first Demon Emperor. I guess you could say I’m open for business." Fang Xing’s face broke into a brilliant smile.

Not only that, but after absorbing this Fierce Beast’s soul, the last ten percent of his Primordial Spirit’s injuries had also fully recovered.

His Primordial Spirit was completely restored.

When the time comes, he could start restoring his three Divine Spirits.

With a single step, Fang Xing appeared before Yun Shu.

At that moment, Yun Shu also came back to her senses.

Staring at the Fierce Beast’s head on the ground, the shock in her eyes had yet to fade.

She knew Fang Xing was formidable, but she had never imagined he would be *this* formidable.

His strength was on a completely different, crushing level.

’If I stick with him, I’m afraid I won’t be of much help...’ For the first time, such a thought occurred to Yun Shu.

She was a dignified Grandmaster, yet faced with a freak of a Grandmaster like Fang Xing, she felt like she had become a burden.

’I’m afraid I won’t just be useless... if we encounter a particularly powerful Fierce Beast, I might even be in danger myself.’

’This is all for the Profound Wind Tribe. The more Fang Xing kills, the better the Profound Wind Tribe’s results will be, and the more resources we’ll be allocated.’

’Yes, in that case, it’s better to split up. I probably don’t need to worry about him. As long as I don’t drag our overall score down too much, it should be fine.’

With this thought in mind, Yun Shu looked at Fang Xing, her expression serious.

"Young Master Fang, let’s split up!"

"Hm?"

Hearing this, Fang Xing paused and looked at Yun Shu.

"What’s wrong?"

"Have I done something wrong?" Fang Xing asked.

Yun Shu shook her head. "Young Master, your strength is immense. You can hunt more powerful Fierce Beasts. It’s difficult for me to help if I follow you. If we act separately, the Profound Wind Tribe’s total score should be higher."

Previously, she had planned to act together with Fang Xing.

But having witnessed Fang Xing’s true strength, she had to change her plans.

Fang Xing’s power exceeded her imagination. Under these circumstances, the gains from splitting up would be far greater than from sticking together.

After all, individual results and tribe results were two different things.

The higher the tribe’s score, the greater the final resource allocation the tribe would receive from the Holy Hall.

"I see..."

After hearing Yun Shu’s explanation, Fang Xing understood.

"Alright. But if you encounter any danger you can’t handle, you can contact me."

Fang Xing didn’t refuse. Acting alone would indeed be faster.

Since Yun Shu had proposed it herself, he naturally had no reason to say no.

It was better to separate.

If Yun Shu followed him, it would indeed be difficult for her to achieve any results.

He would be the first to kill anything they came across.

This would certainly suppress her performance.

Yun Shu nodded. "Young Master, you should also be careful. If anything happens, let’s contact each other."

Fang Xing gave a slight nod. Then, as he watched, Yun Shu’s figure quickly vanished from his sight.

Watching Yun Shu disappear, Fang Xing summoned a burst of fire, performing Refinement on the Fierce Beast’s head on the ground and absorbing its essence.

He glanced back toward Thunder Marsh Lake. While killing the Demon Emperor Level Fierce Beast, he had also eliminated several Demon King Level ones.

Although the Power of Thunder and Lightning prevented his Primordial Spirit from scanning the area, relying on his Flesh Body’s Perception Power, he could no longer sense any particularly powerful auras.

This was only the third layer, after all.

It wasn’t possible for Demon Emperor Level Fierce Beasts to be everywhere.

’Next up... the Demon Forest.’

Fang Xing’s gaze shifted to the distance, locking onto his next target in the third layer’s forbidden zones.

The Demon Forest!

A forest filled with poisonous gas, it was also highly likely to contain Demon Emperor Level Fierce Beasts.

’I’ll go take a look.’

Having set his goal, Fang Xing swiftly vanished from the spot.

He unleashed his Zongyi Ascension Step at full power.

In a flash, he arrived at the second forbidden zone.

A forest permeated by a red, poisonous mist.

He didn’t know if it was due to the reflection of the blood-red stars in the sky or if the mist was naturally red, but either way, it didn’t look normal.

"Hey, Brother Fang, you’re here too!"

Before Fang Xing could even begin to investigate, a figure suddenly approached from another direction.

Aguda!

Besides him was another burly Grandmaster, also an Early Stage Grandmaster.

"Just came to take a look," Fang Xing said with a slight smile.

"Huh? Where’s Miss Yun Shu? Wasn’t she with you?" Aguda stepped forward, looking surprised to see Fang Xing alone.

"We split up for now. She wanted to act on her own," Fang Xing said.

"I see..."

Aguda nodded.

"Split up? Don’t tell me you angered Miss Yun Shu and made her leave?"

Just then, several other figures also arrived before the Demon Forest.

Fang Xing’s brow furrowed. He looked over and a familiar figure came into view.
