Chapter 235 - 88: Aristocratic Family Parasites
The next moment.
In the sky, the Blood Corpse King was instantly shattered, leaving only two clusters of red objects falling into a pair of jade hands.
"Too weak."
The Empress said indifferently.
At the same time, she placed the exploded items into the space backpack.
As for the Abyss Core, with a wave of her hand, it landed in the palm of the Vast Heaven Daoist Venerable.
He turned it into black energy and absorbed it into his body.
"Damn!"
From afar, the Celestial Corpse felt the aura of the Blood Corpse King completely vanish and let out a thunderous roar.
The previously leisurely mood had long disappeared, and in anger, it commanded the infinite black mist to surge forward like waves.
The black mist swept across.
Trying to break through the golden light emitted by Mu Qing, to completely envelop the Vast Heaven Daoist Venerable and others, using its power to annihilate them.
It was not only anger.
But also fear, fear of the future.
Among the several figures besieging the Blood Corpse King, it didn’t sense any Second Transformation auras.
Which means a group of First Transformation beings actually managed to kill the Blood Corpse King.
If these people undergo Second Transformation, what will happen then?
And the Iron Corpse King, who escaped back, saw the Blood Corpse King actually fell.
With a face full of shock and confusion.
The Blood Corpse King and it were the right and left hands of the Celestial Corpse.
Both had their strengths.
The Iron Corpse King’s strongest attribute was its physical strength and hardness.
While the Blood Corpse King excelled in physical recovery and the mastery of magic, with exceptional resistance to various control effects.
Killed just like that?
It couldn’t even muster the strength to resist, numerous strange abilities tightly locked the Blood Corpse King in place.
Leaving no room for any counteraction.
And the opponent of the Blood Corpse King, Chaotic Sword King Fang Qingluan, had a fleeting look of bewilderment on her cold face.
She knew how troublesome the Blood Corpse King was, be it its corrosive bloody magic.
Or the flesh body that could withstand her Sword Qi.
When the Sword Qi slashed into it, it felt like a sword cutting into water.
Especially the last sword from Stabbing Immortal, its sharpness even she felt its impact.
"Good!!"
Mu Qing showed a trace of excitement on her face, Shen Fei’s summoned beast was indeed too strong in both cooperation and tactics.
In this short time, they actually managed to slay the Blood Corpse King.
Seeing the Celestial Corpse directly breaking through defenses, intending to blast open her domain, she just sneered, "If you have the guts, launch a full-scale attack!"
Immediately, the gold light shattered all the black mist coming through, gold light and black mist remained distinctly separate, neither able to prevail over the other.
It seemed very lengthy, but only those at Tier Eight could clearly see each of the Empress’s moves.
Some professionals and abyssal creatures unable to perceive like Mu Qing, Fang Qingluan, Xiao Hao, Poison King Dugu Yan, and those at the Celestial Corpse’s side.
Those below Tier Eight just saw the Blood Corpse King virtually being forcibly fixed in place.
Just during the process did it erupt once, using bloody power to block briefly.
Otherwise, it was entirely controlled in sequence, then completely killed.
Clean and sharp.
All were in disbelief, gazing silently at the figures standing in the air.
"Commander Mu, luckily arrived!"
At this moment.
Mu Qing heard a voice from the side, turning to look, it was Shen Fei, smiling.
[You slew the level 83 abyssal creature ’Blood Sea Corpse King’, based on your contribution, you gain +41% experience]
[Your level rises to: Level 50]
[..., gained +12% experience]
Indeed, it was worth coming to the abyss; upon arrival, there were two Tier Eight kills.
Along with numerous Tier Seven creatures, directly elevating him by two levels, truly exhilarating to slay across tiers.
No need to worry about leveling difficulties, though rapid leveling isn’t always favorable.
If unable to slay abyssal creatures across tiers, leveling would become arduous for them.
However, for professionals, compensating for combat power is relatively straightforward.
And for professionals to gain experience, unless using special items like ’Matchmaker’s Love’.
Their default experience will largely depend on contribution, but if high-level professionals greatly surpass lower-level ones in contribution.
Low-level professionals will face an experience penalty.
Unless using a team contract to offset the experience penalty, but if the tier difference is vast, higher-quality team contracts are required.
As for the loot distribution, it’s a matter of allocation.
Of course, these two kings were directly slain by Shen Fei, possibly with prior contributions from the other two kings.
But Shen Fei and their contributions wouldn’t differ much, experience penalties remain minimal.
"Indeed, luckily arrived." Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, eyes falling on the distant Celestial Corpse.
Simultaneously, the giant figure behind her spoke.
Sounding like a vast Daoist chant, "Vile corpse, fight or flee."
Shen Fei’s gaze landed on the Celestial Corpse.
Even at such a distant range, he felt immense pressure.
Just one strike is enough to utterly destroy him, even life-saving skills might prove futile.
Since even Stabbing Immortal has similar slaying skills, the abyssal creatures are likely no exception, especially those at Tier Nine.
Indeed.
To slay Tier Nine is truly challenging!
"Damn humans! You better watch out!"
The Celestial Corpse found it couldn’t overcome Mu Qing, hence led its army and retreated.
Mu Qing’s beautiful eyes watched the mighty abyssal army depart, staying alert without pursuit.
With Tier Nine Celestial Corpse watching closely, venturing outside Corpse Suppressing Abyss City imposes great pressure on low-tier professionals.
This battle was quite fruitful, slaying at least five Tier Seven, two Tier Eight.
Corpse Suppressing Abyss City’s predicament was resolved.
That’s enough.
Even if they want to invade again, it will be difficult to form another Abyss invasion within a year or so.
Mu Qing looked at Shen Fei with a hint of amazement in her eyes.
She had actually witnessed Shen Fei’s process of killing the Supreme General, and realized that it was quite strenuous at the time.
But how long has it been?
Shen Fei’s strength has undergone a tremendous transformation.
Though the Corpse Dragon King and the Blood Corpse King were indeed worn down by Fang Qingluan and Xiao Hao before.
Still, being able to slay them clearly shows his true strength.
"All troops, take a break!"
"Attend to the wounded."
Mu Qing’s voice echoed all around.
"We’ve won, finally won!"
"Awesome, these people are incredible, they managed to kill two Tier Eight beings."
"Who are these divine people?"
...
The crowd was filled with curiosity about the Empress and others who swiftly emerged to slay the Tier Eight entities.
Down below, the Breaking Abyss Army burst into a frenzy; repelling the Abyssal Army was indeed a great victory.
And at that moment.
Five massive illusions appeared in the sky, dropping dew-like emerald green raindrops all around.
The Breaking Abyss Army, drenched by the green light rain, felt their prior fatigue and tension utterly vanish.
Not only that.
Their injured parts began to heal rapidly, becoming as good as new.
"My leg is healed! This is amazing! This healing skill is too powerful!"
"Incredible. Could this be a special squad of the Breaking Abyss Army?"
"It looks like it!"
Medicine Ancestor successively summoned the previous four Medicine God illusions and the newly comprehended ’Song Ci’.
Hua Tuo, Li Shizhen, Sun Simiao, Bian Que, and Song Ci worked from inside out, healing everything from bones, blood, to skin.
A miraculous restoration akin to reviving flesh from bones.
Mu Qing raised an eyebrow, "Your summoned beast’s healing power is comparable to that of an eighth-tier Professional, impressive."
Her tone was full of admiration.
It was indeed extraordinary, clearly something only a large-scale Legendary Skill could achieve.
Others only encountered Legendary Skills typically after the Second Transformation, and even then they usually just mastered one or two moves.
Which already made them quite powerful Professionals.
But Shen Fei’s summoned beasts seemed to possess countless Legendary Abilities.
The inherent quality of Shen Fei himself endowed his summoned beasts with high attributes, coupled with the skill’s quality.
The combination made Shen Fei’s summoned beasts almost transcend their own tier.
A moment later.
In the command room.
Mu Qing sat in the main seat, with Shen Fei beside her, and opposite were Dugu Yan, Fang Qingluan, and Xiao Hao.
But Dugu Yan, Fang Qingluan, and Xiao Hao all had their eyes fixed on Shen Fei.
As well as the Empress and others seated not far away, their eyes filled with awe and curiosity.
"Is this the reinforcement you mentioned, Commander?" Dugu Yan looked at the exceedingly young Shen Fei and the Empress and others behind him.
Completely unable to imagine that this young person was the one who slaughtered the Corpse Dragon King with their first appearance and swiftly killed the Blood Corpse King.
He looked just like a student.
Dugu Yan previously thought that Mu Qing had decided to compromise with the Heavenly Pride Club to gain their assistance.
But didn’t expect it to be a young man.
Could this be a special talent of the Breaking Abyss Army?
Dugu Yan had heard that the Breaking Abyss Army had a specially trained elite team.
The resources, Skill Books, and equipment provided to them were the best, and they constantly roamed the Abyss slaying Abyssal Creatures.
"Yes. Shen Fei, a disciple of War God Luo." Mu Qing had no intent to hide.
Or rather, many Kings should already know that War God Luo took a disciple.
Yet they wouldn’t have thought that Shen Fei would be this powerful.
"A disciple of War God Luo?"
Dugu Yan exclaimed, while Fang Qingluan said, "Shen Fei, I heard about you from Fang Ruxue, you’re indeed monstrous."
"It seems your family’s assessment of you is too low. This isn’t just talent.
I fear you’ve grown a lot already."
"Didn’t expect you to be War God Luo’s disciple, those old ones must be regretting now."
"This is Fang Family’s Fang Qingluan, one of the previous generation’s Heavenly Prides from the Fang Family. She’s considered Fang Ruxue’s aunt."
Mu Qing explained, "Those old folks from your Fang Family really demanded excessive concessions this time!"
"Otherwise, I wouldn’t have sought Shen Fei, but I didn’t expect him to surprise me more."
Fang Qingluan smiled lightly, "Those old folks must be fuming, they waited so long to interfere here.
Didn’t expect it to be resolved."
Mu Qing sneered, "It’s not just the Fang Family, many were waiting to see my misstep, these aristocratic parasitical families."
"I even heard they’ve prepared impeachment topics against me as Commander to give me a few stains."
"They didn’t foresee Shen Fei breaking through their convolutions, despite pulling many Tier Sevens who would rather not come."
Listening to Mu Qing’s words, Shen Fei realized the intricate power dynamics at play.
This made him despise those so-called aristocratic families even more.
Facing an Abyss invasion, yet still engaging in internal strife.
No wonder Demons steadily appeared, when there are those within akin to Demons.
Commander Mu wasn’t wrong, these are true parasitic aristocrats.
He learned a bit more from Xuu Zixu’s words.
These aristocratic families essentially stemmed from bloodlines of early Heavenly Prides during the initial Professional era.
With the passage of time, building on their ancestors’ prestige and the initial advantage translating to long-standing power,
they’ve grown into formidable forces.
Some even partially detached from Wu Xia, treating its survival as a bargaining piece.
