Chapter 780: 576 Chapter Soil_1

This unique battlefield held such allure for the strong fighters who arrived later that if they missed it, they’d crazily provoke battles everywhere, trying to recreate the standards of this war.

Death? Death truly didn’t matter, what was essential was to be part of this war! To thoroughly enjoy the chaotic slaughter! TMD, such a powerful and intense battlefield, one must not miss it at any cost!!

"Waaahhh—" Young dragon Tanshia Firlo, in the internal space, widened her eyes, the white ball stuck in her teeth gently wriggled as she opened her mouth dumbfounded, and plopped down onto the crib, evenly wiping away her drool.

Through the scenes synched over by Lilith, Tanshia Firlo saw the chaotic battle outside, where Zheng Yichen and the others’ figures were no longer visible, while a group of Chaos creatures, their battle intent ignited by the demonized Asura Battle Intent to the point of madness, had completely bloodshot eyes.

All moving beings nearby were enemies, with no cooperation, no sneaky opportunism, only kill, kill, kill... The motorcycle lacked the aura of life, so none of the Chaos creatures paid any attention to it.

To the young dragon, such a scene seemed far too brutal!

So much so that even the young dragon found it boring.

The blood battle continued, with more and more beings joining the fray, and as time passed, the fierceness of the fight not only didn’t decrease but actually became more intense, stunning some strong fighters who were regulars in Chaos Furnace but had resisted its influence.

The Blood battles in Chaos Furnace could last for ten days, half a month, or even longer, but this time, the intensity accumulated in just one day reached an unprecedented level, and strong fighters far from the battlefield of Blood could feel the insane battle intent from this direction.

They felt a sense of urgency, because judging by the intensity of this fight, the Chaos Furnace might be reshuffled due to this battle, and at the center of the fight was a strange force that could greatly impact the mental state.

Of course, negative mental states were not necessarily a bad thing in Chaos Furnace, where the most important thing was an unyielding will... as long as the battle intent endured, even if one was brutally killed, they would come back to life somewhere, turning over a new leaf.

If the will was completely worn down and burned out, then it meant utter death, not the kind where the soul enters Hell after death or recycles in the River Styx, but a death leaving nothing behind.

Crack—

In the midst of the fierce battle, Qi Xiangyun felt something snap inside her body, she breathed heavily, but couldn’t stop, because to stop meant failure, meant death, as there were too many creatures participating in the fight.

They fought fearlessly, turning the entire battlefield of Blood into a gigantic meat grinder, with the weakest being eliminated first. As time passed, all who remained were truly the elite of the elite.

Those who couldn’t reach this level, upon joining the blood battle, were like stones thrown into the ocean—larger ones caused big splashes, while smaller ones were simply submerged.

The enemies in the blood battle were crazed yet difficult to deal with, some even capable of predicting her movements with their strong combat instincts. Qi Xiangyun was fast, so fast that her agility seemed somewhat lacking, and here in the battle, she was forced to find ways to improve her agility.

Among the Chaos Furnace’s strong fighters, who were relying on their combat instincts in madness, her lightning-fast speed was not so effective anymore, and to achieve an overpowering effect, she had to better control her own speed.

The mental pressure allowed her to be influenced by the environment of Chaos Furnace, with the efficacy of the Ice Heart Mantra fluctuating wildly.

One slight misstep and she could be influenced by demonic thoughts and battle intent, the overwhelming battle intent filling the environment. The Asura Battle Intent within Blood Asura was absorbed into the stronger current, and the blood qi infused with battle intent was absorbed by the magic power, allowing her to breakthrough her slowly-progressing Blood Asura, which was at a bottleneck.

She re-experienced the sensation of rapid improvement in her magic power that she felt when she first practised it, but this progress came at the cost of severe devastation to her will, looking as fragile as a person teetering in the cold wind.

This was also a form of tempering... The stabilizing effect of Ice Heart Mantra on mental state fluctuated wildly, but the lower limit kept rising.

No matter the fluctuations, nothing could breach the ’frozen’ lower limit maintained by Ice Heart Mantra. The mantra was auxiliary and very useful under normal conditions, but in the chaotic battlefield of Chaos Furnace, if her will was not resilient enough, the lower limit sustained by Ice Heart Mantra would not suffice to keep her consciousness clear.

Now, her eyes saw nothing but blood-red, which didn’t hinder her vision; instead, the crimson hue excited her in an unusual way.

The feeling that something in her body might have broken seemed irrelevant now, and she didn’t want to give up. She wanted to continue to push her limits, because Lin Yaoyao, who seemed ’lazier’ and preferred to eat and drink on regular days, hadn’t given up yet!

She didn’t want to be the first to leave the stage. In the battle, she could sense three other auras with the same origin; one was almost like hers, and one was stronger.

The stronger one was surely Liu Hongzhao; among the three, she was the most formidable, and the last origin aura was like a sun, with the other origin auras agitated under it, this ’sun’ however remained unshaken... the palpable presence gave Qi Xiangyun extra reassurance.

She decided to go for broke!

"Huh~ So then... I’m starting." Feeling that both her body and mental state had reached a limit, Qi Xiangyun completely released the demonic thoughts she had been consciously controlling, the operating Ice Heart Mantra retracted, maintaining the last thread of her consciousness, deep-rooted within the demonic thoughts like a firmly growing seed.

Practicing magic power inevitably led to troubles with demonic thoughts; there were many varieties, and if not resolved, they would eventually lead to problems. Even though there weren’t significant issues at the moment and Ice Heart Mantra could suppress it well, making them appear normal.

Suppression, however, does not completely solve the problem.

Her demonic thoughts contained a strong possessive desire for the ’sun’ perceived in her awareness, coincidentally, Lin Yaoyao and Liu Hongzhao felt the same. They had exchanged their experiences in practicing magic power, so if they did not properly resolve the issue of demonic thoughts, their relationship would inevitably fracture one day due to the intensifying possessiveness caused by the influence of demonic thoughts.

The cultivation of magic power is deeply ingrained and cannot be simply eradicated, for to do so would be equivalent to crippling one’s martial arts. Using Dusk to try to eliminate demonic thoughts? This can indeed be achieved, but while many enhancements or other treatments in Dusk are perfect, some aspects shouldn’t seek that kind of perfection.

If the demonic thoughts were completely removed this time, what about the next? Eradicating demonic thoughts in Dusk is just ’treatment,’ akin to healing a wound—just because it’s healed this time doesn’t mean one won’t be wounded again. It is the same with demonic thoughts.

To avoid injury altogether? That’s not treatment, but enhancement. A Vajra’s indestructible body enhancement can be done, but it also requires enhancement material.

Thus, eliminating demonic thoughts in Dusk is merely a temporary solution. With magic power within, removing it is merely avoiding the problem. The demonic thoughts, being a form of power mainly used for unleashing Demonic Abyss Seven Kills, should be dominated and utilized by them as they originate from within!

"Hmm?" Liu Hongzhao sensed Qi Xiangyun’s aura turn chaotic, almost as if she had been demonized, and she slightly furrowed her brows. After a day-long Blood Asura battle, she was exhausted. If it were not for the fact that Blood Asura’s magic power thrived on battle, they simply wouldn’t have lasted so long!

Even so, the cycle was struggling to keep up. Though the magic power, slow to advance at the limit, greatly increased in speed under extreme conditions, it was the physical and mental limitations that truly hindered progress. But limits are meant to be challenged and broken.

The real fight was only just beginning at this moment!

In the extreme battlefield of Blood, every minute of perseverance equaled several days or even weeks of arduous cultivation!

The frenzied battle intent on the battlefield, the intrusion of demonic thoughts, gave her additional considerations. The battlefield was in such disarray, and as the ’sun’ perceived in her senses, Brother Chang Qing feared nothing, but here they also faced the inevitable... casualties, right?

A bloody storm formed and shattered the enemies around, and Liu Hongzhao, with bloodshot eyes, looked toward where the ’sun’ was...

Inevitable—casualties?

"..."

Sss—

A faint sound ensued, a ghastly Chaos creature broke through the bloody storm, its claw tearing through her shoulder fabric, leaving behind three bloody marks. The girl with red hair and red dress flashed a streak of brutality in her eyes, and the Chaos creature was shredded to blood mist by the explosive wind.

Inevitable casualties meant distrust in Brother Chang Qing!

If Qi Xiangyun truly succumbed to demonization, under the influence of demonic thoughts she would never stay within her own fighting area but would instead include them in the enemy’s range following the trend of demonic thoughts!

Yet Qi Xiangyun hadn’t done that; instead, Liu Hongzhao was the first to show a mental lapse under the attack of demonic thoughts.

"..." The girl in red sunk her consciousness into the demonic thoughts. Unable to harness demonic thoughts as fiercely as Brother Chang Qing did, she decided to use the demonic thoughts as soil, her spirit as the seed, drawing the sustenance from demonic thoughts to become stronger than them!

"It all seems like they’ve been possessed... Maybe I should give it a try too?" Lin Yaoyao hesitated slightly, sensing the madness and brutality of the two auras. Being of water and earth attributes, she harbored a bold idea for controlling the demonic thoughts.

She had once used her special traits to catalyze seeds and plant toxins, leading to the audacious thought that specially cultivated soil could grow stronger poisons. Could demonic thoughts serve as soil too?

A spirit grown in the soil called demonic thoughts should no longer be affected by it, right? Just as those special poisons would take root, germinate, and seed on the doctored poisonous soil, allowing them to adapt to even more intensely toxic soils, while the former soil became just regular growing ground for those seeds.

Other seeds placed there would instantly corrode, but those seeds could flourish, possibly even struggling if the soil quality was not optimal for rapid growth.

This bold idea had been discussed with both Liu Hongzhao and Qi Xiangyun!

Fighting until now, she wanted to call out to the ’sun’ she could sense, to flee the lesson and pout alone, assuming Liu Hongzhao and Qi Xiangyun hadn’t given up yet...

Or even just to lazily stay by Brother Chang Qing’s side as a maid would be okay, right? Brother Chang Qing surely wouldn’t refuse.

But... is that really okay?

The ’Blood River’ by Lin Yaoyao’s side grew from calm to increasingly violent.
