1546 Beings from Hell!

“Warning! A sudden increase in the enemy’s energy reactor is detected!”

“Warning! The enemy is in the process of locking on their fire control system!”

“Warning! The enemy has opened their deep space torpedo port!”

System warnings rang out, one after another. The red warning indicator kept flashing, signifying that danger was upon them. Without a doubt, this black warship planned to attack Xia Fan! Their energy shields and reactor suddenly strengthened, while a row of black weapon ports were opened, all of them either deep space torpedoes or hidden grenade launchers.

To actually attack without any warning?

Tamu was startled, and a little nervous. Still, Bright Pearl and Traveling Buddha looked as pleased as ever. Their eyes were slightly squinted, staring at the enemy ahead, almost as if to say, ‘Thinking of fighting against us? You’ve picked the wrong opponent.’

*Whoosh*

Xia Fan’s hands danced across the control console. Even in a condition where he had not injected Yggdragon’s blood, his speed was between four and five thousand meters per second. Like a phantom of light, he quickly adjusted the Skydome, entering the warship into a combat state. Every action was done in milliseconds, despite being manually input.

After a period of time familiarizing himself with the ship, Xia Fan was getting more acquainted with the ship’s performance. This was a high-grade battleship created by the Fey; and Xia Fan had not piloted such a large ship before this. However, because of his outstanding ability to learn, he had already mastered the operational essentials of the ship!

The advantage of a speedster when piloting warships was simply incomparable. Xia Fan was originally in a passive position, but under his high speed control, the Skydome’s reactor was quickly pushed to 120%, its backup shields ready to turn on at any time. The electric rapid-fire cannons on both the top and bottom of the ship appeared, and the fire control systems locked onto the enemy ship.

“Fire!” Xia Fan gave the order, and the electric cannons fired. Like a dragon spitting intense flames, countless bombardment shells began pelting the opponent’s hull with great efficiency.

This black warship was not to be outdone, either. Using deep space torpedoes and heavy howitzer shots, it fired a thundering salvo at the Skydome. Though the heavy howitzers possessed great firepower, their fire rate was considerably slower. Meanwhile, the Skydome’s rapid-fire cannons excelled in attacking, enabling it to keep up a continuous barrage, just like a machine gun.

The temperature of the cannon barrels shot up due to the high rate of fire, turning them red not long after the battle began.

The enemy’s energy shield was dwindling rapidly; Xia Fan had timed it for the perfect moment. Pushing a red button on the console, he turned around to Traveling Buddha and everyone else and shouted, “Head to the assault pod. Prepare to kill them all!”

Traveling Buddha, Bright Pearl, and Tamu left the command deck in a hurry. The cannon fire outside the ship’s window made everything look bizarre, while the ship rocked intensely from the impact of the shells. However, Traveling Buddha and the others were powerful, so it did not take them more than a handful of seconds to arrive at their destination.

A shocking scene unfolded in the darkness of the Celestial Path. The razor-shaped Skydome, under the propulsion of its powerful shockwave engine, gained speed as it sped forward, charging right toward the enemy ship like an unloaded torpedo!

*Kraang!*

A triangular impact cone suddenly appeared on the bow of the Skydome. This was a unique feature of the Skydome. It was not only able to bombard its enemies, it could also ram them!

The thunderous impact of this collision was like stabbing a sharp dagger into the chest of an enemy, tearing through blood vessels and shattering bone. On top of that, the powerful propulsion caused the enemy ship to tumble upon impact, smashing back into the barrier of the Celestial Path a second time.

The Skydome’s impact cone dug a hundred meters deep into the ship’s hull, thick smoke belching out. Some of the important control mechanisms of the enemy ship had been ruined, and it looked as if the black warship had abruptly lost power, its cannons going silent, now powerless.

“Kill them!”

A hidden mechanism in the impact cone opened, and Traveling Buddha charged into the enemy ship alongside Tamu and Pearl. Instantly, chaos exploded throughout the ship. These three had all broken past their Law Barriers, and Bright Pearl was even a dragon! Their combat strength was nothing short of terrifying!

…

The battle ended in a short while. Xia Fan had also boarded the enemy ship, and was holding two captives on the command deck. They were being held down by Tamu’s Guardian, the God of Light, and were completely bloodied all over, with dirty faces, looking absolutely haggard.

“Is this your doing?” Xia Fan asked him.

“No. These two were already injured when we entered.”

“Is there no one else?” 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

“None. We’ve carefully inspected the ship, and only these two demons are on board.”

Xia Fan found it strange. It was such a huge warship, yet there were only two demons? Where had the rest of the enemy gone?

These two demons were not particularly high-ranked, and not yet fully evolved. Compared to a genius like Shaka who could flawlessly imitate a human form, these two were still beast-like. One was a Fire Fox, while the other was an Ice Fox, both with sharp snouts.

Xia Fan sat down across from the two and swept a glance over them. He then asked emotionlessly, “Why did you leave the Desolated Valley Universe, and why did you attack me?”

The Fire Fox was apparently more cunning. His eyes were darting about, while the Ice Fox was more straightforward, cursing, “We couldn’t beat Xia Geng, so does that mean we can’t even try and beat you?! It’s just too bad that your warship was a lot more formidable than we had imagined!”

The Ice Fox was indignant. Xia Fan realized that they did not recognize the Skydome, or they would not have dared to attack him if they were aware that this strange warship shaped like a razor had been built by the Fey.

As for Xia Geng, that was even more interesting! They had been in the process of following their leader, Black Ghost, in sweeping Desolated Valley when Xia Geng and his people had unexpectedly barged in. The ensuing battle that ensued ended with the Demons beaten badly, Xia Geng delivering a shattering defeat at his hands.

The Fire Fox was used to adapting to the flow of the battle. The moment he realized that the situation was going from bad to worse, he dragged his kin the Ice Fox and piloted his warship to leave Desolated Valley. Unfortunately, they ended up encountering Xia Fan the moment they made it through the Cosmic Gate. The Ice Fox had a straightforward personality, so once he saw that the Skydome bore the insignia of the Skywing Clan, he mistook them as reinforcements for the Skywings, so he attacked without another word. Fire Fox was too slow and had not managed to stop him in time.

What followed after was Xia Fan’s fierce counterattack, and the capture of the two foxes!

“Wasn’t Xia Geng a tracker?” Xia Fan asked, curious. Trackers were vanguards, and generally speaking, they would not take on the enemy, since their main job is to scout.

Bright Pearl rolled her eyes at Xia Fan, “What do you think? Even a three-year-old child from your clan would be extremely aggressive, not to mention Xia Geng. He’s a veteran of the Skywings, and though his job is a tracker, that does not mean all he knows is tracking!”

That made a lot of sense…

Xia Geng was not only fine, he was actually beating up the demons black and blue! Xia Fan was relieved. It seemed like his fellow clansmen were indeed very domineering. Ever since he had arrived in the Celestial Path, there was a sense of pride that he had never felt before welling up inside him. Whenever the Skywings were mentioned, there was no one that would not flash them the thumbs-up, which had had brought plenty of benefits his way.

Xia Fan had Tamu lock the two captives up with disruptor handcuffs to prevent them from running away, and brought Pearl and Traveling Buddha along to search the ship for spoils.

With how common spatial rings were, important items would always be carried on people, and none of the things Xia Fan found on board the ship were noteworthy. The only thing valuable was the voyage log, as well as the various data onboard. He transferred all the data on to the Skydome so as to perform macro-data analysis.

“There’s no need for us to go there. We can simply wait out here, so as to avoid going into separate timelines,” Tamu proposed.

Thus, Xia Fan and the others waited patiently outside the Cosmic Gate. According to the information that the two demons had provided, the battle had already ended, with Xia Geng emerging as the undoubted victor. As such, it should not take long for him to find his way out. Conversely, if Xia Fan tried to enter the Cosmic gate now, there was a possibility that he would miss meeting Xia Geng entirely!

——

For three consecutive days, all everyone did was eat, chat and cultivate their various special abilities and martial techniques. But when the fourth day came, even the more composed Tamu was beginning to lose patience.

“Something’s wrong. It has been four days. Why have Xia Geng and his men stayed in Desolated Valley Universe for so long?” Tamu was concerned.

*Whoosh*

Xia Fan gritted his teeth and pushed the propulsion lever to the maximum, engaging the shockwave engine, “We’re not waiting any longer. No matter what happens, I want to go in and take a look!”

No one could dissuade Xia Fan once he made up his mind. The Skydome quickly turned around in the darkness, and proceeded to accelerate in the direction of the Cosmic Gate. His speed climbed until it was finally just a beam of silver light.

*Bang*

The powerful shockwave engine tore open the dimensional wall, and everyone saw a seering glare flash before them. In the next moment, all they could see was a foreign sea of stars.

Just as Carlos, the owner of the Waystation, had said, the Desolated Valley Universe was a world of brimstone and hell. Countless planets were burning in the darkness at astonishing temperatures that could melt rocks and turn them into magma, forming a tumultuous sea of red.

The onboard scanners indicated that there were no signs of life anywhere near the Cosmic Gate, and everything around them was completely barren.

“Bring those two out here!” Xia Fan ordered.

Traveling Buddha acted like a young master and was unwilling to budge, but Tamu, infinitely loyal to the Skywings, was more than happy to head to the temporary cell where they had detained the two foxes. He lifted up the Ice Fox and Fire Fox with one hand each and tossed them onto the command deck.

Seeing the world beyond the ceiling-to-floor windows, the expression on the two monsters immediately changed. They were secretly exchanging shifty glances, almost as if they were terrified to be back.

Xia Fan glared at them menacingly, “Tell me, the two of you were in a fight with Xia Geng here?”

“It’s no use, even if you know! The timeline is constantly changing!”

“That’s right, don’t go.”

“You can send an ultra-range communication signal. The interference in Desolated Valley is very weak, so a single signal burst should be enough to cover the entire universe.”

The Fire Fox and Ice Fox seemed to be hiding something from Xia Fan. They were vehemently set against heading to the battlefield, using all sorts of reasons to refuse him.

Xia Fan suddenly exploded, dashing to the Ice Fox and grabbing his arm. He proceeded to close his hand, breaking the Fox’s right arm in two with a crunch. The Ice Fox howled in pain as sweat poured from his forehead.

“Do you wish to be like him?” Xia Fan asked with a sinister face.

The Fire Fox had a treacherous yet cowardly personality. He was very easily swayed after being threatened by Xia Fan in such a manner.

Because they did not have too high a status among the demons, neither knew the specific details. All they knew was that here in this hellish world, there existed a sapient race known as Hell Ghosts, and the demons wanted to find them and acquire their unique genes.

It was unknown where Xia Geng had picked up this thread and come to investigate the Desolated Valley Universe. However, they were still one step too late, as the demons had already found the Hell Ghosts prior to being attacked. They had just retreated from the frontline and were discussing how they should deal with these strange beings when Xia Geng arrived with his men. Both sides had engaged in combat, and the demons had lost again. It was after they were completely defeated that the Fire Fox dragged the Ice Fox along to flee.

*Huu~*

Everyone heaved a sigh. These two damned demons! To think they would hide such crucial information. They were also beginning to worry Xia Geng, wondering if he might have had to enter an altercation with the Hell Ghosts.

“Hell Ghosts are beings from Hell, and do not belong in this world! If you go into their territory, you will surely regret it!” the Ice Fox bellowed, cradling his broken arm.
