Chapter 370: Ch 370: Scarlet Void Starfield
It was a huge forest, so big that it would not end even if a World Master flew for a whole month continuously at high speed,
Currently, Emrys could be seen traveling in a group with two women. These two women were Ninth-level Kings. However, one was at the peak of the Ninth level, while the other had just entered this level. The disparity in their strength was huge.
These two women were Li Xueli and Ping Liuyan.
After slaying the demon and consuming it completely, Emrys made the acquaintance of the two women. Li Xueli and Ping Liuyan also questioned what he had done with the monster’s corpse, and Emrys answered that he had moved the corpse to a different location, which was created due to his comprehension of Space Law.
While saying so, he also manipulated space elements easily and created a fissure in the air that fluctuated with chaotic spatial energy, which in return made the two girls believe his words easily.
After that, they didn’t ask anything.
Soon, they decided to travel together and started moving on the battlefield.
While at it, Emrys questioned if they knew the place where the World Master Moris was leading a team to fight.
To Emrys’s surprise, he got to know that he was no longer on the same battlefield.
The Eternity is vast, and there were more than ten Cosmic Battlefields in one region.
The first time Emrys entered the Cosmic Battlefield, he had appeared in the Blue Sea Starfield. This was something he already knew. However, what he didn’t expect was that this time, he was no longer in the Blue Sea Starfield, but in the Scarlet Void Starfield.
If he wanted to return to the Blue Sea Starfield, he would first have to go back to the main camp and request the "leader" for Long-Distance Teleportation. However, using that teleportation device required paying an exorbitant price.
So, under the two girls’ lead, he was moving towards the main camp of the human army on this battlefield.
After spending more than three days on the battlefield, they got to know each other well. Emrys also somehow became the leader of the group.
Soon, the trio encountered another demon. This demon was again different from others. It had a human-like body, but the head of a bull. Moreover, it was huge, about five meters tall.
This was a powerful Bull Demon, slightly weaker than normal Peak Ninth-level King demons.
"Ping Liuyan, you’re the weakest among us. Why don’t you go first and practice a bit with this demon," Emrys suggested to Ping Liuyan.
"What do you mean I’m the weakest? I..."
Ping Liuyan instinctively wanted to retort, but the words died on her lips. She simply didn’t have the confidence to argue.
Li Xueli was about to make a move, but upon hearing Emrys’s words, she immediately reined in her eagerness.
Ping Liuyan drew her sword, and before the bull demon noticed her, she launched a sneak attack.
"Green Sea Rising Sword, First Form!"
Although Ping Liuyan was a bit weaker, she was still a powerful cultivator. Dealing with such a Bull Demon wasn’t a big problem.
Ping Liuyan thrust her sword into the bull demon’s neck, then swiftly withdrew it, causing blood to gush out.
The Bull Demon roared in rage and then kicked towards Ping Liuyan.
Their battle immediately caused a huge disturbance in the surroundings.
When Ping Liuyan attacked, she was able to injure the Bull Demon only because she took it by surprise. However, the element of surprise was only effective once.
Soon, it turned into a head-on fight.
Ping Liuyan’s movements were graceful. She easily dodged the bull demon’s attacks and retreated a few steps. Then she moved forward and tried to pierce her sword into the Bull Demon’s heart.
However, a metallic sound rang and her attack bounced back.
"Liuyan, how long will you keep poking at it? Put in more effort and chop off its head," Li Xueli urged Ping Liuyan.
The bull demon’s skin was thick; stabbing it like this would require at least a dozen thrusts to kill it.
Decapitation was the most effective and quickest method.
Ping Liuyan took a deep breath. The bull’s neck was much thicker than a human’s, and she instinctively felt that decapitating it wouldn’t be easy.
She waved the sword in her and erupted with a terrifying Sword Momentum. Sharp air rippled around her sword as she swung it again.
"Roar!"
The Bull Demon roared and punched at her face, but to its surprise, her figure shattered like a mirror. The real her was already behind it.
Her sword cleanly cut through the bull’s neck, and with this strike, the bull’s head was cleanly severed, rolling to the ground as blood sprayed everywhere.
Emrys raised his brows in surprise. He didn’t expect Ping Liuyan to have such a fast movement. The figure that was shattered by the Bull Demon was actually just an afterimage produced by her fast movement. She was so fast that her afterimage didn’t dissipate upon collision, instead, it shattered, giving the illusion of being real.
Of course, this was all due to the marvelous movement skill she had comprehended. It was the effect of that skill.
After killing the Bull Demon, Ping Liuyan opened up the bull demon’s body and retrieved its demon core.
This demon core was actually the world seed that this demon had given birth to. The demon race is somewhat special when it comes to the World Seed. Anyone can retrieve or dig out World Seed from a demon’s body and use it to nurture their own World Seed or World (universe).
Emrys learned about this from the two girls.
And he could guess why such a thing never happened in the battlefield he appeared in for the first time.
It is because that was not a battle but a war, a war between human and demon armies. No one had time to cut open a demon’s corpse and retrieve their World Seed after killing it.
Because if they tried, they would be killed by another demon before they would have the chance to dig out the World Seed.
