Chapter 417: Traveling Together (6)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Without Shou Yi’s protection of righteousness, these scavenger villagers were
no match for the owner of the fog.
The capable warriors in the village had already stepped onto the frontline. At this moment, it had completely become a one-sided slaughter.
The splattering blood dyed the falling snowflakes red and was finally sucked
away by the fog.
Half an hour later, the entire village was slaughtered.
After slaughtering the village, the owner of the fog gathered the fog and condensed a pure blood bead. With a wave of his hand, the blood bead fused into Feng Qi’s body, which had been swept into the air by the fog.
Under the nourishment of pure blood and Qi, Feng Qi slowly opened his eyes.
He looked around and saw the corpses of the villagers lying in the snow.
His heart trembled, but he did not show his emotions.
“Thank you.” He looked at the owner of the fog and said.
“If I can rise up in the future and stand at the top of this world, there will definitely be a spot for you by my side.” Fog blinked its purple eyes and said with a smile.
Fog’s smile was in the same scene as the corpses around it, making it especially
glaring.
Next, the two of them continued to set off for Winterfrost City.
Looking at the owner of the fog who could still remain calm after killing nearly a thousand people, Feng Qi wanted to ask him how it felt to kill humans, but he did not ask these questions in the end.
He kept telling himself that he shouldn’t be indecisive. He ought to be ruthless
and heartless and completely integrate into the domain factions.
However, after experiencing it personally, he realized that the cruelty was not something he could accept with his worldview.
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and looked
at the owner of the fog.
“What’s our world like?”
Knowing that Feng Qi had lost his memories, the owner of the fog patiently explained,
“Our world is divided into countless spaces. Every space is a small world and is connected to each other. The races you and I are in live in our own small worlds. Therefore, when we descend to this world, there will be domains that are incompatible with the world because we descend with our entire world.”
After listening to Fog’s explanation, Feng Qi continued to ask,
“Then why did you come to this world?”
“There was a problem in our world. I realized that powerful races were constantly paying a huge price to move to this world. At that time, I also realized the problem with our world, so I wanted to learn from the powerful races and open a path. I came to this world to seek a chance for my race to survive in the future. It was also for the opportunity to rise.
“The Great Event will also descend in our world?” Feng Qi caught the main
point.
“That’s right, it’s worse than this world. That’s why all the races came in search
of survival and opportunities.”
“It’s just that some races chose to open up a path, and some races simply
abandoned their worlds and descended directly.”
Hearing this, Feng Qi’s heart skipped a beat.
He thought of the clan that Little Cripple was from. Their method of descent
was different.
They had descended as a whole clan, but there was no domain field.
This was clearly the abandonment of the world that the owner of the fog had
mentioned.
When it descended, the Silent Domain Field appeared. This was clearly the descent by opening up a path.
At this thought, he asked,
“What’S the difference between these two methods of descent?
-There’s a huge difference. If we directly descended, we would have died the moment we descended. After all, the rules of the world we’re in are very different from the rules of this world.
-However, there’s also a chance of survival. Even if you survive, there will be many restrictions and inconveniences. Your strength will be greatly reduced.
“As for opening a path to descend, it means bringing the world, which is also a domain field, to this world.
-This method of descent is the most difficult, but as long as it succeeds, it can also bring many conveniences. As long as we wait for the domain field to complete the fusion with this world, we won’t be restricted by the rules of this world. This is also the reason why the once domain field has existed for long enough, the creatures inside will become what humans call domain transcendent creatures.”
Hearing the owner of the fog’s explanation, Feng Qi came to a realization.
“What’s the opening up of a path you’re talking about?
“The most difficult way to descend is to break through the world barrier and bring your world to this world. If you’re lucky, you can directly descend. If you’re unlucky, you might encounter road blockers.”
“And what are road blockers?”
■A group of absolute experts. They are blocking the path to this world. Once you encounter them, you will almost definitely die.
At this point, the owner of the fog’s eyes dimmed.
“At that time, I led my clansmen to break through the world barrier and open a new path. We encountered the road blockers. My clansmen died in battle to escort me to this world.
“After I arrived in this world, I swore that I would revive them. This is also the reason why I yearn for blood and Qi.
“Only with enough blood and Qi can I condense physical bodies for their souls and revive them on the spot.”
Hearing this, Feng Qi immediately thought of the ghosts in the fog. They were clearly the clansmen who had died in battle that the owner of the fog had mentioned.
However, he was still very curious about the “roadblockers” it mentioned.
What are they?
As he pondered, he suddenly thought of the Path to Heaven.
Could it be that those who blocked the way were the absolute experts among humans?
After they disappeared, they actually went to the source of the world, trying to stop domain forces who wanted to step into this world?
After thinking for a moment and failing to come to an understanding, Feng Qi stopped thinking.
For the rest of the journey, he decided to continue following the owner of the
fog to establish a domain faction.
He wanted to understand the truth of this world from another perspective. The process would definitely be very cruel. He felt that he had to adjust his mentality.
Being sentimental would only hinder him from continuing.
He would fail to complete his mission and create value in this sacrifice timeline.
Therefore, he had to adjust his mentality and become ruthless.
Because similar things like today would definitely happen in the future.
Today, it was Shou Yi. The next time might be someone else.
Perhaps he would have to personally kill the people he had once regarded as heroes and do something that did not match his worldview at all.
If the timeline of joining the Science and Technology Research Institute back then was to fall into darkness,
Then, this antagonist line was to become a demon and consider problems from the perspective of purely treating humans as nobodies or livestock.
However, he had to walk down this path heartlessly.
Only in this way could he be more like a domain creature and witness the truth that he had yet to find out.
At this thought, he turned to look at the owner of the fog.
NOW, he was certain that the owner of the fog had already regarded him as a companion.
Otherwise, he would not have given him precious blood and Qi for healing. However, he had no feelings for it.
He only wanted to make use of it and learn more information through his growth.
If there was a day in the future when it lost its value,
he would kill him in reality without hesitation and not give it any chance to grow.
At this moment, the owner of the fog grinned at him.
“How’s your recovery?”
Seeing this, Feng Qi also smiled.
“I’m fine now. Thank you.”
After pondering for a moment, he continued,
“Fog, if I find my clansmen in the future, I will definitely ally with you and plan for the future together.”
“Alright, it’s a deal then.”
In the biting cold wind, they each had their own thoughts as their figures walked further and further away..
