Chapter 161: Chapter 145 Leaving Him a Weakness_1

"That flower... so huge," Lin Yaoyao said, her eyes wide as she stared at a ’mountain’ in the distance, which was in fact a dazzling red flower. Countless tiny red specks drifted from the petals, which quivered slightly, dispersing into all corners of the world.

"It’s really big," Zheng Yichen fell silent as he looked at the flower, its sheer scale exceeding his imagination. Was moving mountains the only way to destroy such a thing?

Uh, perhaps it didn’t require such an exaggerated approach, but dealing with it wasn’t going to be easy either.

Qi Xiangyun was right. A multitude of Aberrant creatures had gathered near the flower, facing the enormous Demon Flower as if on a pilgrimage. The Alien Phenomenon creatures responded to the flower, and from a distance, Zheng Yichen could see other moving anomalies.

"Do you really intend to confront that Demon Flower?" Qi Xiangyun couldn’t help but look at Zheng Yichen, who had learned some martial arts in a single day, the kind that didn’t involve techniques, Destroy Vitality Crush Life and Evil sword, that is—he didn’t learn the swordsmanship, just the part about Blood Sacrifice.

Both were extremely deadly Evil skills, but Zheng Yichen used them with brute force, ignoring the drawbacks due to his robust constitution. When he encountered some problems, he simply eliminated the Aberrant creatures, which all died more miserably than the last, all turning into mummies.

What made Qi Xiangyun even more uneasy was that, apart from the Aberrant creatures, there were many other monsters in the world, of which Asura Demons were just one kind.

Demons wreak havoc in the world... This was very similar to what was recorded in books, except that back in those days there was no red mist disaster, only demons. The strong men of the Mortal Realm united and drove the demons of that chaotic era back to where they came from. According to records, the chaotic world of demons had something to do with Supreme Demons, under whose influence, if men harbored evil thoughts, demons would breed.

"Otherwise? Since we’re already here..." Zheng Yichen looked at the dense red mist in the sky, where red threads wandered like fish. Their number and concentration far surpassed that of other environments, ordinary winds already incapable of blowing those red threads away.

"I know some Spells that can maintain these winds," Qi Xiangyun said, eyeing a turquoise gemstone mounted on the motorcycle. The Spells she had mastered were weak and varied; she hadn’t specialized in any because her main purpose for learning them was to assist with Mechanical Techniques.

She couldn’t produce the persistent winds that Zheng Yichen had been maintaining, but with the assistance of that gemstone, attempting to do so was possible.

"He’s caught in a dilemma," a man said with a smile, observing Zheng Yichen through a mirror atop the gigantic Demon Flower.

The woman beside him was indifferent. "The weaknesses of the human heart... but there’s nothing to be happy about here."

The people Zheng Yichen had encountered were arranged by them and were part of the preparations specifically made for Proxy Agents in advance since the Demon Flower had bloomed. All they had to do next was wait for the time to pass, and they didn’t need to have too much conflict with Proxy Agents.

Since the beginning, there were few simple Proxy Agents, and Zheng Yichen’s strength displayed along the way wasn’t extremely exaggerated but was not to be messed with.

The opponent’s adaptability was extremely high, and his combat prowess in this world was already top-level, capable of contending with a Supreme Demon. Although that incident involved an avatar of a Supreme Demon, the fact that Zheng Yichen could win in a short period signified his strength.

They were strong too, but their strength had been somewhat affected by adjustments to the environment of the world—some suffered a reduction in power, others had their Spells and magic weakened.

There was no need to conflict with Proxy Agents; just dragging out the time was sufficient. They didn’t deliberately arrange a large number of people for the Proxy Agents to encounter because then the Proxy Agents might decide to ignore those people. However, arranging a few people to compound the pressures was different.

Now the Proxy Agents either had to be heartless and leave those they saved, or they had to find a way to relocate them somewhere else. The only safe place would be the Dusk Territory, and back and forth, that would take at least four or five days, plus the previous travel time, a week would have passed.

Moreover, once the Proxy Agents were determined to return, they would set up more obstacles along the way. Besides their own action, some local Supreme Demons would be involved. After the breaking of the barrier, this world would merge with theirs. What did the suffering of the Mortal Realm have to do with those Supreme Demons?

Once they found out from their side that breaking the barrier would allow their Supreme Demons to ascend and become stronger, instead of remaining in this world as mere legends, they would face a chaotic world of demons but would be driven back by the united powerhouses of the Mortal Realm to where they came from.

With those demons blocking the way, it would take at least twice the time for Zheng Yichen to reach this place.

"If it weren’t for those Dusk mercenaries, we wouldn’t need to go to all this trouble, but this method is indeed effective," he said.

The woman nodded. "Don’t push him too hard though."

"You don’t really think this method can hold him back, do you? The weakness of the human heart is obvious, but when it comes to his own safety, he will also give up on those girls," said the man, observing Zheng Yichen in the mirror, who was pondering something. Dusk mercenaries could abandon their mission and not die.

Proxy Agents were different; they didn’t know what the unfamiliar Proxy Agent excelled at, so they could only add some weaknesses through artificial tests. The reason they chose those girls of suitable age was naturally because of Zheng Yichen’s gender. Of course, they were also adaptable individuals.

Even if they weren’t selected, they would later attempt to take some of them away. After training the adaptable natives, they too could be converted into a viable force.

"It’s a pity that time is too pressing, or we could create some conditions to improve their relationship."

The woman’s words made the man burst into laughter, "Hahaha, since when did you start playing matchmaker?"

The woman glanced at the man who maintained the circular mirror, "Is that so amusing? If you can fight, you can directly challenge him and deal with him. Then there wouldn’t be so many issues."

The man fell silent as he stared at Zheng Yichen in the mirror. He was about to say something when he saw Zheng Yichen suddenly look up, their eyes met through the mirror. A strong repulsive force emanated from the mirror, and spiderweb cracks appeared on the smooth surface.

"My mirror!!"

"What’s going on..." Zheng Yichen was somewhat puzzled as he withdrew his gaze. Ever since he arrived here, he had felt something watching him, but he had never been able to locate the presence. Just now, that feeling of being watched had suddenly intensified, so he followed that feeling and looked in its direction.

Then, the feeling of being targeted disappeared.

"What’s the matter?" Qi Xiangyun looked puzzled.

"Nothing, let’s talk about your spell just now. Make sure you can maintain its effectiveness, then you’ll drive this vehicle. I’ll give you temporary authorization, and we’ll regroup here in two hours."

Qi Xiangyun looked at Zheng Yichen’s motorcycle with eagerness. She had trained in martial arts. She was young but tall, capable of riding the motorcycle. As for how to use it, she was an expert in Mechanical Techniques. How difficult could learning to ride a motorcycle be?

Ancients weren’t that dumb; a wise person in any era is wise.

Ten minutes later, Zheng Yichen stood ten meters away, watching the winds encircle the motorcycle. He nodded; spells were such convenient things. He wanted to learn, but even that required time and he didn’t have the relevant foundation. He couldn’t expect to be an unparalleled genius who mastered things at a glance.

"Alright, starting now, regroup here in two hours. There is a positioning map on the motorcycle," said Zheng Yichen to Qi Xiangyun and the others, then he walked towards the Demon Flower. Determining this location was simple for him; he could use the motorcycle’s positioning system, and he also left a beacon here. The remote controller he carried also had positioning capabilities.

Watching Zheng Yichen’s departing figure, the expressions of the three girls were complicated.

They had spent very little time with Zheng Yichen, less than three days, and the power he wielded didn’t seem like something a normal person should have; it was more like something from the Evil Path. Yet Zheng Yichen was acting to resolve the chaos of the Demon Flower.

In such a case... perhaps the means didn’t matter after all? To end the chaos, even a master of the Evil Path could become a hero.

"Dammit—It can’t be fixed!" Elsewhere, the man looked at the damaged mirror, his expression annoyed. He hadn’t expected Zheng Yichen to have such a counteractive ability. Everything had been fine along the way, but a problem had emerged now.

"Was it too close?" The woman suggested with a slight frown; previously, to avoid exposure, they had always observed Zheng Yichen from a great distance.

This time, the observation distance had been more than halved.

"This will make it difficult to monitor his situation in real-time," the man said, frowning as the red fog blocked their view.

The Demon Flower was clearly visible in the red fog as it was the source of it. The Aberrant creatures active around the Demon Flower formed a special protective ring that could directly protect the local powerhouses approaching the Demon Flower unless they flew over, and there were not many beings capable of flying in this world.

Even if some were skilled in spells, there weren’t many spells that allowed for flight, and brief flight wouldn’t be enough to cross the barrier of the Alien Phenomenon.

"Next, we’ll see how much they care about them," whispered the woman. They originally had a fair number of people on their side. Some were lost in the battle with the Dusk mercenaries, and others were dispersed to counter those Dusk mercenaries.

In the days that Zheng Yichen had been traveling, many conflicts had occurred, even resulting in an Alien Phenomenon creature being dealt with. These creatures were important in this world.

They were connected to the strangeness produced by the Aberrant creatures. The removal of even one could weaken the collective Alien Phenomenon strength of the Aberrant creatures and affect the overall efficiency of the boundary breaking.

Having killed an Alien Phenomenon creature meant that the time it would take to break the world’s boundaries had been extended by several days.

It must be said that the Dusk mercenaries indeed had very high combat standards. Although they were not as numerous, the support from Dusk enabled them to obtain stronger equipment and weapons easily.
