Chapter 021: Azure Snake Lord
The finishing work gradually came to an end under the strong presence of the two camps. During this time, Yang Chen did not take any action, quietly standing in the safe zone, absorbing the essence of the beasts after their death. Gradually, the Nine-Pointed Star on his forehead was filled with green light. As the green vitality surged in, the Nine-Pointed Star became increasingly brilliant and gradually approached saturation.
"Leader, your forehead..." Eagle Tian Yi inquired.
"It's nothing." After saying that, he continued to focus on the battlefield.
After the Tian Sha Camp and Po Jun Camp hunted down the last beast, the final trace of green vitality surged towards Yang Chen. The Nine-Pointed Star on his forehead suddenly burst forth with life force, making everyone feel as if they were bathed in spring breeze. Without needing Yang Chen's command, everyone moved closer to him, immersed in the sea of green.
"Ding! Player Yang Chen activates Nine-Pointed Star - Life Essence. Shared inheritance initiated."
"Shared Inheritance: Absorb the vitality and essence of deceased creatures, converting it into fighting energy essence. Can be absorbed and shared."
"Everyone sit cross-legged and absorb what I impart to you," Yang Chen instructed in a deep voice.
Everyone quickly sat down cross-legged, quietly waiting for Yang Chen's next command.
Suddenly, from Yang Chen's forehead, 240 green rays of light dispersed and then imprinted on everyone's foreheads. The reason there were 240 rays was that eight people from Po Jun Camp had fallen in this battle.
Half an hour later, the flow of green vitality ceased. The green portion of the Nine-Pointed Star on Yang Chen's forehead had receded by about half. Gradually, members of the Ying Sha Yongbing team began to awaken and stood up. Without exception, all of their foreheads bore a gray Hexagram mark that soon faded into their brows, though none of them noticed it.
"Thank you, Leader, for imparting the Fighting Spirit." The members of the Shadow Kill Puppet Corps knelt on one knee, including Zhang Tian and Xie Yao.
Upon careful observation, during this Shared Inheritance, everyone had advanced one level, with those below Fighting Spirit not lacking in those who advanced two levels. Among them, Zhang Tian was already at the sixth level of Fighting Spirit, and Lu Ying was also at the sixth level of Fighting Spirit. However, Lu Ying was originally at the peak of the fourth level of Fighting Spirit, so this advancement came naturally. The hexagrams appearing on everyone's foreheads served as a mark of inheritance, allowing them to accept Shared Inheritance in the future. At the same time, Yang Chen no longer had to worry about potential traitors among them.
"For all my brothers in the Shadow Kill Puppet Corps, I will teach you a type of footwork to enhance your survival chances in the Wilderness. The brothers from Heavenly Kill Camp have already mastered it; what they demonstrated today on the Battlefield was this footwork—Ghostly Step. I wonder if you are willing to learn?" Yang Chen said to the members of Breakthrough Camp.
"Willing!" everyone shouted in unison.
"Good, sit cross-legged around me. I will impart this through Soul consciousness. Meanwhile, Heavenly Kill Camp Leader, I leave everything to you during my teaching," Yang Chen instructed.
"Please rest assured, Leader. I will handle everything!" Lu Ying replied respectfully while kneeling on one knee.
"Mm." Yang Chen nodded, closed his eyes, and activated the skill transfer—Ghostly Step—to impart it to over 121 members of Breakthrough Camp, including Xie Yao.
Half an hour later, Zhang Tian was the first to open his eyes. He glanced at Yang Chen with gratitude in his eyes and then nodded firmly as if he had resolved to follow Yang Chen for life. The second person to open their eyes was Xie Yao; her gaze toward Yang Chen was filled with appreciation but also a hint of confusion and complexity, as if she could not see through this man before her.
Li Mu and Eagle Tianyi took note of everything happening beside them. One by one, everyone opened their eyes and then stood around Yang Chen under Lu Ying and Zhang Tian's guidance, leaving a ten-meter diameter space in the center. Yang Chen sat cross-legged in the middle, silently operating the Demon God Strategy while the light points within his Nine-Pointed Star uncontrollably followed the operational route of the Demon God Strategy.
A vibrant green vitality filled Yang Chen's entire meridians. One cycle, two cycles. The green vitality within the Nine-Pointed Star dwindled to 2/5. Three cycles, five cycles; the green vitality continued to decrease until only 1/5 remained. Continuing to operate the Demon God Strategy, the green vitality within the Nine-Pointed Star was nearly depleted; just as the last trace of green vitality merged into Yang Chen's meridians, he completed his ninth cycle.
Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Yang Chen suddenly opened his eyes wide. Two beams of green light shot from his pupils and dissipated into the air ten meters away. Yang Chen stood up and checked his overall condition, discovering that his Nine-Pointed Star on his forehead had turned gray again with no trace of green vitality left, while his entire body was filled with vibrant green life force—pervasive within his flesh and meridians.
Moreover, these green light points had allowed his Demon God Strategy to advance from second transformation to third level. This meant that Yang Chen was now at the Three-Star Warrior Realm. "Alright, everyone's condition is almost there. Let's continue deeper and directly assault the Beast Lair," Yang Chen said spiritedly.
"Yes!"
At this moment, everyone acknowledged the leader of the three-star fighters. Although this leader was of a lower level, he possessed terrifying combat skills and could hunt magical beasts with ease. Moreover, he had a method to help enhance one's fighting spirit. With such a leader, who would want to leave? Who wouldn't support him?
Yang Chen nodded in satisfaction, knowing that the Shadow Kill Yongbing team had completely submitted to him and was united against external threats.
With over two hundred people, they continued to advance step by step. After walking about eight hundred meters, Yang Chen said, "This place is shrouded in mist. The members of the Tian Sha Camp can only scout this far. From here on, everyone should be careful. I would feel heartbroken if we lost any one of you."
"Leader!" everyone shouted in unison.
"Here’s the plan: all members below Five-Star from the Tian Sha Camp and those below Five-Star from the Po Jun Camp will stay here and wait for our return. Additionally, the members of the Tian Sha Camp will expand their scouting range to one thousand meters around us. If there’s any movement at all, I want to know immediately! Also, I want both brigade leaders to stay behind; if anything happens, you can coordinate from there. The rest of you, follow my lead."
After giving his orders, Yang Chen took the lead. Following closely behind him were about a hundred people. Among them, only about thirty were at the Spirit Fighting Realm, with the highest being the two brigade leaders at Six-Star Spirit Fighting. As they entered the misty area, Yang Chen summoned the Dragon Silk Sword. Just its effect of reducing all attributes by 10% could have a significant impact. Unlike the single-target effect of Death Spike, this was an area effect.
After walking for another ten minutes or so, Yang Chen could clearly hear the pained hissing of serpentine creatures. He stopped and said, "It seems that the Azure Snake Lord has not finished shedding its skin. Therefore, while we attack, there will be at least ten magical beasts guarding it. This means we only need to deal with about thirty magical beasts first—perhaps even fewer than that. Tian Sha, go scout the terrain."
"Understood," Lu Ying nodded respectfully without a hint of complaint.
