Chapter 041 Life, Death, Life and Death Sphere
Yang Chen glanced around and found that about two hundred members had already disengaged from the battle.
"Leader," everyone said in unison. "You've all worked hard. Jiang Nan, how are things?" Yang Chen asked.
"Leader." Jiang Nan couldn't help but admire Yang Chen, who, without using any fighting energy and relying solely on a sword and physical strength, was able to kill a fourth-level monster across realms.
"Two hundred fifty-eight people have disengaged from combat, all of whom have completed their missions. Please give your instructions, Leader."
"Well, that's good. Jiang Nan, this is my mission item." After saying that, he tossed the Magic Core of the Iron Armored Blazing Tiger to Jiang Nan.
"This? Leader, did you carve the cross on this Magic Core?" Jiang Nan asked hesitantly. Yang Chen glanced at it lightly and replied, "Yes, it should be no problem for completing the mission."
"No, I just wanted to ask, just asking," Jiang Nan stammered. To be honest, with his fighting emperor-level power, Jiang Nan could easily break a fourth-level Magic Core. However, relying solely on physical strength made it a bit difficult.
"Everyone rest in place. I will transmit some life essence to you; make sure to refine it well. Also, gather all the monster bodies together," Yang Chen instructed.
"Yes, Leader," everyone said excitedly. Yang Chen closed his eyes and began to draw upon the Nine-Pointed Star life essence within him to slowly absorb the life essence from the monster bodies. Waves of green essence flowed into his forehead. At the same time, some gray essence also surged into his forehead. Yang Chen frowned slightly; this gray essence had not been present before.
Yang Chen focused on his Dantian and discovered that both gray and green essences were flowing into it along with the operation of the Demon God Strategy. Once inside the Dantian, the green essence flowed into a green sphere while the gray essence entered a gray sphere. The size of a ping-pong ball, the Life and Death Sphere continued to absorb both life and death essences.
"Could it be that this gray essence is the death essence after a person dies? If so, then the cultivation speed of the Demon God Strategy will increase again. But I've never encountered a situation where I absorbed death essence before; what exactly is going on?" Yang Chen pondered.
Continuously absorbing life and death essences, the Nine-Pointed Star on his forehead displayed an odd mix of gray and green colors. Yang Chen opened his eyes and looked at the monster bodies around him, wondering why death essence would appear.
"Le-leader," Liu Tao said with difficulty.
Yang Chen turned to Liu Tao and asked, "What’s wrong?"
"Y-your eyes," Liu Tao swallowed hard and said.
"Eyes?" Yang Chen said. With a wave of his hand, a Demon Beast crystal core appeared in his palm. The Magic Core reflected the face of a person, which was none other than Yang Chen.
A habitual lazy smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth, revealing a wicked intent, especially in his pair of eyes. His left eye was green, while his right eye was gray.
"Life and Death Eye, the left represents life, and the right represents death." Suddenly, a phrase floated into Yang Chen's mind.
"Life and Death Eye!" Yang Chen fixed his gaze on a plant before him. The originally green plant gradually turned yellow and withered, then it transformed from yellow to vibrant green again. Yang Chen stopped using the Life and Death Eye and observed that the Life and Death Sphere within him had become somewhat dim.
"Transformation between life and death? Let's try a single effect." Yang Chen said as he closed his left eye. A gray light flickered in his right eye, shining on the green plant in his hand.
Gradually, the green plant began to turn yellow and wither. Yang Chen did not stop releasing Death Qi; he continued to project it onto a pile of dead leaves, which slowly turned to ash and dissipated into a pile of gray.
Suddenly, amidst the gray dead leaves, a hint of green emerged. Yang Chen knew that if he continued to release the gray essence, this touch of green would wither away.
"Indeed, the ultimate form of life is death, and the ultimate form of death is life." Yang Chen quietly said with his eyes closed.
"Leader, he... he must be a follower of the Western Light God Church?" Liu Tao said.
"Have you ever seen a follower of the Light God Church who can drain all vitality?" Li Qi retorted.
"You two fools, this is the East. There are no explicit magical texts here! Some magical literature has gradually been lost, passed down orally through generations; do you really believe in it? Can you cultivate?" Jiang Nan scolded with a laugh.
"Oh? Why is that?" Yang Chen opened his eyes and asked.
"In the East of the Demon God Continent, there are no magical elements as described in magical texts. What exists is only spiritual energy. The same goes for the Western Continent," Jiang Nan explained.
"East? West? How do you say that?"
"Using Wilderness Center and Tower of Babel as reference points, we belong to the East of the Demon God Continent," Jiang Nan clarified.
"No wonder all of us only cultivate Fighting Spirit," Yang Chen said with understanding. "Is there any way to travel to the Western Continent?"
"There are two methods. The first is to traverse the wilderness, which would allow us to reach the Western Continent. However, that is no longer feasible."
"The second method dates back to ancient times when there were practitioners of magic on our Eastern Continent who had interactions with the Western Continent. However, during the Ancient Era, both continents attempted to invade each other's territories and waged war. The War God of our Eastern Continent engaged in a monumental battle with the deities of the Western Continent, shattering the heavens and distorting the universe. The space was fragmented, and ultimately both sides agreed to destroy the teleportation array, forbidding any beings from one continent from stepping onto the other. Afterwards, the two gods used their own inner worlds to repair the Demon God Continent. The Demon God Continent did not have a name until then."
"Then why are there no magical elements in this space?" Yang Chen asked. "Integrating one's inner world into the Demon God Continent requires immense energy. The War God of our Eastern Continent extracted the source of fighting spirit from the Western Continent, while the deities of the Western Continent drew upon the elemental source of the Eastern Continent. Therefore, there is not a trace of magical elements on our Eastern Continent."
"Do we still possess any magical literature from the Western Continent on our Eastern Continent?" Yang Chen inquired.
"Yes, but it is either in forbidden areas or collected by certain prominent families," Jiang Nan explained.
"Gather all the beast corpses; I need to absorb their life essence," Yang Chen commanded.
"Understood, leader." Yang Chen closed his eyes again, frantically absorbing the life essence and death essence from the beast corpses.
"When I am in a state possessed by the Demon God, I will have the Life and Death Eye; in my normal state, my eyes are ordinary. But what is this death essence? I've never experienced this before. Never mind, I will take my time; one day I will master all the secrets of the Demon God," Yang Chen resolved.
As he crazily absorbed death essence and life essence, the Life and Death Sphere within Yang Chen also frantically extracted proportional amounts of life and death essence from the Death Sphere and Life Sphere to enlarge itself. The three small spheres remained in a balanced state.
"Everyone gather," Yang Chen said as he looked up at the sky.
"Yes," everyone replied excitedly. Then, 284 streams of green essence shot out from Yang Chen's forehead and surged into everyone's foreheads. After a while, another twenty or thirty members of the Shadow Kill Yongbing group completed Yang Chen's task.
