Battle Frenzy

“How daring!” The tall and large spider goblin behind the Crown Prince chided him. “Who are you? How dare you order our Young Master around!”

Old Cow quickly smiled apologetically. “Old Cow did not intend to do that. I just felt that beating up servants like this…”

Before he could finish talking, the spider goblin was about to scold him again when the young Crown Prince waved his hand slightly. The spider goblin that was about to break out into a scolding respectfully retreated, while the spider goblin that was beating up Little Lost Fox also stopped immediately. Old Cow thought that they were about to let this slide and was grinning from ear to ear. “Young Master is outstanding. Lord, you are very generous. Stupid girl, hurry up and apologize to the Crown Prince!”

During times like this, determining how exactly Little Lost Fox had provoked him was evidently unimportant. Old Cow could also see the situation clearly. However, before the teary-eyed and wronged Little Lost Fox could react, the Crown Prince smiled. “Apologize? If an apology can resolve problems, wouldn’t this world have already collapsed!”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Old Cow cheerily stretched out his hand and lightly touched his mouth. “Look at my foolish brain. I will prepare a table over there beside you. Yes, yes—”

“Scoundrel!” one of the spider goblins chided. “Why would our Young Master of the Shell Shade Faction go to such a place! Do you think that you have the right to treat our Crown Prince?”

More and more people started to observe them. When they heard what was said, they were shocked, and the whispers grew louder. The Crown Prince Jiao of the Shell Shade Faction was one of the most well-known figures in the entire Catanlyke District, even more so that his father, Yin Jiuli! He was a super genius who had been selected for the Heavenly Gates array before he even reached the age of 20! His growth was given priority in the Land, and he was a major figure that had the chance to step into Heaven in the future. He was on a completely different level from these unworthy people in the Land!

Furthermore, even if he was eventually unable to enter the Heavenly Core Stage, he had a high chance of accumulating his Gold Core. He was someone that people like them could not challenge.

A few years ago, there had been a lot of friction between the Ninth Wilderness Path in the Heavenly Treasures Street and the Shell Shade Faction beside them, until Crown Prince Jiao emerged one year ago. Then, the reputation of the Shell Shade Faction instantly exploded and completely suppressed the power of the Ninth Wilderness Path. However, it was said that the Crown Prince was fully focused on achieving his path and was crazy about cultivation. Why would he suddenly appear on Heavenly Treasures Street?

“Old Cow is suffering…”

“Did Little Lost Fox offend him? That girl is often forgetful. Oh, she has caused great trouble this time to offend Crown Prince Jiao. I suppose that even the Ninth Wilderness Path will not care about this.”

The alliance that resisted the acquisition of Heavenly Treasures Street was led by Old Cow and a few other beings. Today, he had come with Old Cow as his target. He was planning to punish him as an example to others. “You dared to try to sell half a year’s worth of lantern fire wicks to me for 100 Star Coins? Do you think that I’m too foolish?”

Old Cow was stunned.

“I didn’t!” Little Lost Fox still felt wronged. She remembered what had happened today. “I said 5 Star Coins. I didn’t sell them to you for 100!”

Crown Prince Jiao smiled. “So do you mean that I, the Young Master of the Shell Shade Faction, have lied? That is a relatively severe insult. Slap her for me!”

The spider goblin gloomily waved its claw. It had not actually started attacking just now. He slashed Little Lost Fox twice and dealt with her. Wang Zhong hurriedly stood in front of Little Lost Fox, but before he could open his mouth to speak, a gust of wind blew past in the next second. He was sent flying as if he had been hit by a high-speed train and collapsed at the side as if he was about to fall apart. He only had enough strength to breathe.

He knew that there was a difference in power, but he never expected the difference to be so large. He firmly gritted his teeth and tried his best to not fall unconscious. The other seven legs of the spider goblin were rubbing against one another. “If you don’t know about life and death, I will teach you in a little while.”

Wang Zhong looked at the murderous intent in the spider goblin’s gaze. This was the first time Wang Zhong had sensed such intense rage since he had entered the divine territory. The two years he had spent in Tianjing had been too comfortable and easy, causing him to lose his sense of danger. However, this kick had fully awakened him.

He was a good-for-nothing in the divine territory. The Fate Stone caused him to consider many nonessential things. Increasing his strength was his first task. If not, everything would be of no use!

As he watched the spider goblin raise the struggling Little Lost Fox, its claws repeatedly rubbing against her white face, Crown Prince Jiao did not immediately take action. Instead, he smiled and looked at Old Cow. “Old Cow, you are a smart person. You should know what I want. If anyone blocks my path, I will destroy their entire family!”

“Young Master, I really cannot sell this shop.” Old Cow definitely knew what was happening. “You cannot possibly force us to buy or sell. I believe that the Star Alliance will not ignore this.”

As Old Cow spoke, he glanced sideways outside the door. The law-enforcing creatures from the machinery race had arrived. Yin Jiao smiled. “What’s wrong? The Shell Shade Faction is a formal Faction that follows the rules. Let’s not talk about this. Since you want to apologize, slap yourself 100 times.”

The machinery race had obtained the evidence, but Yin Jiao’s actions were beyond the jurisdiction of the law enforcement squadron. He was rather precise in his actions.

Old Cow gritted his teeth and started slapping himself while facing everyone else. Yin Jiao flashed a refreshing smile. “Put more power into it. If you have no strength, I can get my subordinates to do it for you.”

Not long after, amidst the slapping sounds, Old Cow’s head was swollen while Wang Zhong watched without saying a word. He would clearly remember what had happened today.

Old Cow was finally done slapping himself. Yin Jiao left behind a few words. “I will still come back.”

Old Cow’s awkward smile was completely frozen. He knew that he was the scapegoat to be punished as a warning to the rest. There would be no end to this.

…

Meanwhile, in the Heavenly River sandpit, Aiolos was calm and steady. Just as he had planned, he slowly got used to the density and rules in the land. He found a direction to break through after the special environment in the divine territory had obstructed the energy in his body. On Earth, he had almost unlimited Soul Power; that did not disappear because he had come to the divine territory. Power was still power and still existed in his body. However, due to the change in environment, his body and will were unable to activate the power that was once easy to use.

This was like losing access to a treasure house. When he was on Earth, he was allowed unlimited access to the treasure house, but when he reached the divine territory, access to the treasure house changed, and the door was locked.

Now, he had moved the door and formed a small gap. Although the door was still locked, he could use a few methods to borrow the riches inside. Just like that, his power was stable and sustainable. Sooner or later, he would be able to possess this treasure house once again. Furthermore, the divine territory had allowed it to change into a large treasure house. Most importantly, the divine territory was so powerful that it deserved to be called divine. However, in terms of combat, they were weak here. If it were not for their great talents and understanding of spiritual influence, Aiolos felt that he would be able to rampage through a street. To humans, they still needed to be patient.

Meanwhile, in the fields…

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

The rock spirits that managed this field looked at the field that had been severely damaged. Indeed, time had brought about great changes. Although they were paid to do this, even the rock spirits who were adept at controlling stones needed a long time to repair this level of damage back to a brand-new state.

It was not easy to earn money from the Titans. However, this human was even more shocking. The rock spirits looked at Aiolos but did not dare to believe that until now, one-third of the damage in the field had been done by this human.

Bang bang bang…

Once again, Tsarilorhuan sent Aiolos flying. However, Tsarilorhuan did not have a complete advantage. Aiolos retaliated and fiercely kicked his chest. A small part of this great power was absorbed by the Titan’s flesh, but most of the power traveled through his entire body — from his chest to his waist, then his legs — before traveling to the ground.

Crash!

It was as if an explosion had occurred. The ground underneath Tsarilorhuan’s feet rumbled and exploded into many pieces.

“How comfortable! Ha ha!”

Tsarilorhuan’s silver eyes flashed, and electricity shot out. At the same time, his bones let out a strange cracking sound. Complex veins appeared on his exposed muscles. These veins swelled and expanded as silver lightning traveled from his head down to his body. When it reached the ground, it wildly traveled and accelerated.

Aiolos stretched out his golden hands and fiercely grabbed the lightning “stare” that the Titan had produced. He took one breath, and terrifying veins appeared on his hands. This was the terrifying lightning stare of the Titans, and this was still the weakened version before transformation.

“Foul! Transforming is a foul!” At this moment, the rock spirit, which had been observing the fight, suddenly remembered his mission and loudly refereed the match. This was the mission that the Titan Lord had entrusted him with. It was evident that after the Titan transformed, even the flick of his finger was more than what a human would handle, let alone lightning. Of course, more importantly, the level-6 field that he had created could not endure the power from a level-7 civilization. After the Titan transformed, with one punch, the human would be done for, and the field would have to close for over ten days for repair work. Furthermore, this Titan Lord, who was still being punished to work at the Heavenly River sandpit, would probably not have enough Star Coins to pay him for the massive damage that had been caused.

When Tsarilorhuan heard the shout of the rock spirit, he started to blush as he suppressed his power. The moving muscle veins rapidly shrank, and the lightning in his eyes was put away.

“Roar! Stop this fight, stop this fight!”

Tsari roared angrily for the fight to stop. When he did not transform, Tsarilorhuan did not have any good methods to deal with Aiolos. This was also the reason why he could fight to his heart’s content during this fight. Aiolos’s punch was powerful enough for the pain to break through his skin and enter his internal organs and bones, even inciting his Titan instinct to transform. However, this was the limit. Once he transformed, this competition would lose its meaning.

As a soldier from the level-7 Titan civilization, Tsarilorhuan was only over 30 years old but already possessed a Void Core. In the divine territory, age was counted according to how long they had lived in the divine territory. The spiritual energy in the divine territory and its exhaustion on the body were two completely different concepts. Thus, in front of Tsarilorhuan, Aiolos was a small boy, but the growth of this small boy was shocking. However, what was most shocking was his combat power!

Aiolos was simply a genius who lived to fight. If it were not for the fact that Tsarilorhuan had his Void Core and could transform, he would have been no match for Aiolos. It was very obvious that he did not have any murderous intentions but had more than enough power to do so. It looked like the other civilizations had ignored this trait of the human civilization. This lower-class civilization that lived within the games had relatively brutal combat techniques.

“Tsari, you are getting easier to defeat.” Aiolos flicked his wrist. He was very clear of his limits. He could still deal with a half-transformed Tsarilorhuan, but once he completely transformed, Aiolos would be no match for him. In the divine territory, one’s realm was threatening. Once they went into the outside world, they did not need techniques to fight.

“Cheh. I’m only afraid that I will kill you and live in boredom for the rest of my life!” The Titan rolled his eyes. He could not lose with his words.

At this moment, golden spiritual energy surged out from Aiolos’s pores and shrouded his hand, constantly repairing his injured body. After just a dozen breaths, he could see a numbing sensation surging forth. His recovery abilities were growing faster, causing even him to be surprised. The treasure house within his body seemed to have a preference for recovery and regeneration. There were times when he would even think about whether he could instantly recover and eventually become an undying soldier in some sense?

How would Aiolos, who had emerged from a bottom-class civilization, be able to accumulate his Core? He did not have any way. Thus, obtaining combat power was still his first objective. He would only have a future if he remained alive. From what he saw, the divine territory that had existed for a very long time was deteriorating in certain aspects. He believed that his two brothers should see this as well.

They left the rock spirit’s field. As usual, they walked through the streets and took a shortcut to the pub as they discussed their battle. Tsari observed Aiolos’s hands until he was sure that they had not completely recovered. There was still some lightning power inside him that caused minor injuries. However, Aiolos’s ridiculous recovery abilities allowed these injuries to heal the moment they surfaced. Thus, on the surface, one would not be able to tell that he was injured. Then, Tsari sighed and felt more relaxed. Although he had unleashed the weakened version of the lightning stare, the essence of his power was that of a dazzling level-7 civilization. Rationally, to civilizations that were below level-6, it was a poison that could never be healed. There was no way to get rid of the accompanying injuries. This was a suppression of power. Simply said, weak bodies could not withstand high-leveled power.

Tsari stretched out his hand and forcefully slapped Aiolos’s body several times. He saw some silver lightning flowing out from beneath Aiolos’s skin like living and agile snakes. The electricity flowed to between Tsari’s fingers and then rapidly followed a path to flow into his lightning hair.

“You can take back that lightning?” Aiolos curiously looked at Tsari’s hair and realized that it was real lightning. However, the mysterious thing was that as long as Tsari was willing, the lightning could become extremely meek. Touching them felt like touching a hot spring.

Of course, Aiolos had never touched Tsari’s hair. During their match, he had suffered many times because of this lightning hair that was just like a lightning sword. Even though Tsari had allowed Aiolos to touch it when he was drunk, Aiolos had never planned to stretch his hand into another man’s hair. Even if that man was a Titan and Aiolos was extremely curious, he would definitely not do it. However, they had agreed that Tsari would find a Titan girl for Aiolos to try touching her hair. Of course, this was an agreement they had made after drinking. Only the God in the Titans’ church knew whether Tsari would keep to his promise and carry this out.

Tsarilorhuan smiled. As usual, he boasted about how silver electric Titans were grand and special even among the Titans. Their lightning was intelligent, and Titans had the ability to take back their lightning. This was simply the basics…

However, he had just begun boasting when his smile froze.

At that moment, the small road that they had walked through 100 times was excessively quiet. Even though people did not usually walk here, sounds from the street would usually travel in here. However, at this moment, they did not even hear a sound.

Bang bang bang…

“As expected of a silver electricity Titan who is famous in the divine territory. Even though I have prepared so much, I was still unable to ambush you. If I had not used this artifact to conceal this rune, you might not have even stepped in here.”

There was a sound, accompanied by clapping noises. Ten shadows appeared from the front and the back of the street, as well as the roofs of the buildings beside them. Their piercing murderous intents caused a chill in the air. Even the air started to carelessly surge, as if it was terrified, and a sharp gust of wind blew past the small path.

Tsari looked at the person who was speaking. “So it was you, you fool. You restrained yourself to only look for me now because you wanted me to fight assassins from the night race?”

Tsarilorhuan’s calm expression angered the other person. With the wave of his hand, the 10 assassins silently revealed their original appearance.

The “night race” did not all come from the same civilization. Instead, it was an organization of assassins from different civilizations. They were also one of the great powers in the Land. Since they had many civilizations living together, the power of the darkness would definitely be great.

Their aura suddenly changed. Black sparks appeared on the two walls along the small path, as if countless flowers had instantly bloomed.

When Tsarilorhuan saw these black flowers, he was stunned. He shouted in shock, “The Cosmos Void Array. You are rather willing to spend your capital!”

Crash! Lightning flashed, but there was no sign of transformation from Tsarilorhuan’s body.

“Today is your day of death!” The “person” in the lead was very handsome, but this only referred to the head in the middle. Meanwhile, there were eight other heads that grew out from his neck like warts, giving Aiolos the urge to punch and burst them.

This was a member of the nine-headed dragon race, a level-7 civilization. Tsari had killed this fellow’s elder brother. It was said that this race was both male and female. Halfway through hearing this, Aiolos wanted to vomit.

At this moment, Aiolos raised his hand. “Er, those who want to take revenge, please take revenge. Those who want to kill, please kill. I am just a passer-by. Can I leave…?”
