Chapter 1881: Killing Hell
"If we can get back to Purgatory Heaven, maybe I can try," Guna said.
"How?" everyone asked at the same time.
"It is too late for me to spend time explaining here. Let us return first. Right now, Purgatory Heaven is not under the control of anyone, but the power is increasing over time. Soon, more and more Purgatory Beasts will be showing up. It is difficult to tell if we can reach the Goddess' statue before then. So, let's get there first." Guna stood up and gestured for Guya to follow her.
Han Sen knew that time was tight and they could not afford any delays. Wang Yuhang and the others followed, too.
Guna and Guya went together. While the pool of light was brighter, it still had a very limited reach. Han Sen and the others had to stay as close as they could to them.
Han Meng'er and Spell kept firing at the Purgatory Beasts that tried coming for them. It surprised Han Sen a lot to learn that Han Meng'er could shoot and kill the Purgatory Beasts.
Han Meng'er's powers were special, there was no doubt about that. Her genes originated in those of a god and a destructive goddess. A part of it was Han Sen, too. The death destructive power that she had gained was very unique.
"If Meng'er can kill Purgatory Beasts, that means Purgatory Beasts and Purgatory Heaven are somehow connected to Death powers," Han Sen thought.
Han Sen could guess the element of the Purgatory Beasts, but with the elements that could be used to counter them, it looked like something Spell could do, too.
It was a shame that Spell was only Baron class. She could still do battle now, but when Purgatory Heaven became stronger, Baron class skills might not be of much help.
The only skill he had at Viscount level was Jadeskin. It did not work on Purgatory Beasts, and that made him depressed.
Icebird Duke followed Han Sen and looked rather shy. She had the highest rank, but she was one of the most useless people there. She could only follow.
Guna and Guya were surprised with Han Sen's Spell geno armament and Han Meng'er's power. It was rare to encounter any that could kill the fiends they were up against.
They entered the city, and then their greatest worry appeared. They heard a cow, bellowing like thunder. And then, heavy footsteps trotted toward them from the dark.
Han Sen's eyes couldn't see in the dark, so he could only hear the scary Purgatory Beast heading for them.
"Be careful! A high-level Purgatory Beast has emerged," Guna warned them.
There was no need for such warning, though. Spell and Han Meng'er had their weapons drawn and aimed at whatever was coming. They could not dodge, and they could not leave. Without Guna and Guya by their side, the arms would claim them as soon the dark reached them.
Moo!
A cow's bellow came echoing out of the sky, rocking the darkness around them. A black Hell Cow emerged from the blur, churning its legs to sprint towards them.
Spell and Han Meng'er struck at the same time, with a fusion of black arrows and white bullets.
Dong!
A black arrow hit the black Hell Cow. It was dealt minor wounds, but none of the hits were able to break its flesh. The bullets lodged inside the skin, but that was where their flights ended.
"Get out of the way!" Han Sen saw that the cow was still coming. Spell and Han Meng'er would be unable to block it. He pushed Guna towards Wang Yuhang and Dragon Lady.
Han Sen held onto Guya and pulled her and Han Meng'er back.
Icebird Duke could not deal damage to the latest hellish beast, but she reacted quickly to the commands barked by Han Sen.
Everyone split up, just as the cow came rushing down the middle of their swift parting. It didn't hit any of them, but the near-miss had most certainly given them a cold sweat.
Han Meng'er and Spell kept shooting at the cow, but it wasn't accomplishing much. They were only Barons, so it made sense that they could not damage the black Hell Cow all that much.
The black Hell Cow decided on a new target, and that person was Wang Yuhang.
"Little Uncle! Catch!" Han Sen threw his Marquise armor to him.
Out of everyone there, the person in the most danger was certainly Wang Yuhang. Wang Yuhang knew the Purgatory Beast would end up going for him.
Wang Yuhang caught the armor and put it on with haste. The black Hell Cow was quick to start chasing after him.
Pang!
Wang Yuhang was unable to dodge in time. He took a nasty hit, but the Marquise armor was strong. The plating had prevented the cow from piercing the armor with its strike.
The force knocked him to the ground, though. Guna's light was weak, and it only worked for a proximity of two steps.
Wang Yuhang fell down next to the ghoulish arms on the ground.
Han Sen started attacking the arms next to Wang Yuhang, trying to slice the arms that came for him. No matter how sturdy the Marquise armor was, it couldn't stop the things from pulling Wang Yuhang into a hole.
Ghost Teeth Knife and Teeth power were useless under these circumstances. Han Sen found himself tightly gripping another knife, and he managed to hew down a few of the arms when he tried with that one. He was surprised by the result.
Han Sen noticed it was the Knife Blank from Planet Knife Grave. The Knife Blank was like a steel rod. It did not possess the edge of a blade, but even so, he was able to slice through the arms that not even a Duke's power could cut down.
Of course, there was no time to mull this over right now. So, Han Sen got back to work by swinging the Knife Blank. He cut every arm that had grabbed on to Wang Yuhang and pulled the man out of the ground.
Guya and Guna were unable to close their mouths. If someone could kill Purgatory Beasts, then that meant they were strong. But the arms were the energy of Purgatory Heaven. Not even King class folks could kill those arms. So, how was the stick-like item Han Sen wielded able to cut them down with such ease?
A few seconds later, the black Hell Cow came speeding over to Wang Yuhang again.
"Old Han, help!" Wang Yuhang was shaking, and he did not dare run. If he moved, he'd fall into the arms. That was just as bad as getting run over by the cow.
Seeing the black Hell Cow almost reach Wang Yuhang, Han Sen pushed him over to Guna and swiped at the cow with his Knife Blank.
A black cow's head barreled through the sky.
Boom!
The headless cow's body ran for a while before coming to an end atop the arms. They both became black smoke and disappeared.
Guya and Guna's eyes were open wide. They peered at Han Sen, thinking how unbelievable the entire thing had been.

Chapter 1882: The Kings Break Godlight
Han Sen kept swinging his Knife Blank, as if he was mowing down swathes of grass. He cut down endless numbers of Purgatory Beasts and the ghoulish arms.
"Little Han, what are you using? That is exceptionally good." Wang Yuhang's mouth hung wide open.
"It's nothing. It might be useful right now, but it is difficult to tell how well it will fare if higher-level Purgatory Beasts rear their heads. Come on, let's run." Han Sen led everyone towards the hall.
Han Sen knew the Knife Blank did not possess special powers. After all, it was simply the child of a knife, and it wasn't an actual knife. Its spirit was still weak, and it was still growing.
But that Knife Blank could very well be deified. That was because only items and weaponry of the same tier could defeat the Purgatory Beasts. That was how he was able to defeat the creatures and the arms.
Han Sen still had to decide how hard he wished to hit each creature he came against, though.
Black Hell Cow's power was equivalent to that of a Viscount. Han Sen was able to kill their current enemies, but if they came up against something of an even higher level, it was likely he'd end up performing like Han Meng'er and Spell had. He'd only be able to stagger the fiends, and not do any proper damage.
Han Sen walked near Guna and Guya. They went at a meandering pace, so Han Sen went forward with Knife Blank. He killed everything he could see in his path. From arms to two-headed beasts to Black Hell Cows. Everything was slaughtered, and it allowed Guya and Guna to move at a faster pace.
It wasn't long before they arrived at the hall they wished to go to. When they got there, though, the situation gave them quite the shock. The hall had fallen. The gold Gana Goddess statue was still glowing, though, bathing the area in a light that forbade the entry of beasts and phantom arms.
But inside the hall, Han Sen saw six shadows. They were the King class elites that had previously escaped. Gold Jade King was there, too.
"I thought they ran off. Why have they come back?" Han Sen looked at them with surprise.
Guya said coldly, "They thought that since Purgatory Heaven does not have a deified elite to control it, they could escape before it was activated. Clearly, they miscalculated."
Han Sen could guess this. After they left, they had hoped to escape the entire planet. Unfortunately, they could not. So, they had tried to destroy Purgatory Heaven.
Han Sen had left the place before then, so he hadn't seen them return.
The six Kings were carrying with them a strange array of powers. The use of those powers seemed to be twisting and distorting the very dimension. They were doing their best to get close to the statue.
Gold Jade King's hand gripped a sword that looked very sovereign and prim. The sword was being thrust at the Goddess statue. Gold Jade King wielded it with finesse. It looked as if it could sever the atmosphere at any moment, but whenever it came within two meters of the statue, its approach was stalled. It became extremely slow, and no amount of effort could move it closer.
The Gana Goddess' gold light became solid. The powerful weaponry and powers wielded against it could not defy that tangible light. Nothing was even able to scrape the statue.
Gold Jade King wasn't the only one suffering this suppression, either. The same thing was happening to the other Kings there, as well.
A beast King was trying to bite it in the air. The creature's fangs had the power to crush mighty objects, and it looked likely to break the statue with its maw. But it was ultimately unable to, as its bite was stopped two meters away. It did not matter how hard it tried, its power wasn't sufficient to deliver the attack.
A giant-looking King was holding a mighty hammer. The hammer was coming down on the statue. Every swing broke the air, but it could not break the statue. It never got closer than two meters from it.
Amidst those six Kings, Han Sen saw a bald monk. He wore monkish garb, like a robe. He struck the statue with the shadow of a buddha.
The same thing occurred to the monk as it did the other Kings, too. The godlight could not be broken.
The six wielded an extreme amount of strength. Together, they kept pounding on the statue. If it was a planet they were striking, it would have exploded many times over.
If they were unable to break the Goddess statue's godlight, the power gap between a deified being and a King must have been rather large.
"What about the Nobles in the hall?" Han Sen looked around. Aside from the six Kings attacking the statue, they were all gone.
Guya said, "Where the statue shines, there won't be any Purgatory Beasts and hellish hands. Ordinary people cannot withstand basking in that light for too long, though. I can only assume they were blasted and dragged into purgatory that way."
"Guna, is there a way to stop Purgatory Heaven?" Han Sen asked Guna.
Guna looked at the statue and the elites, and she said, "I want to sacrifice myself, and hopefully obtain control of it that way. Then, I can ensure Guya gets out of Purgatory Heaven. In attacking the statue, however, they have increased its power output. Even if I do sacrifice myself, doing so now would be useless."
"You are so cruel! You only want to have Guya escape this place, while everyone else is left behind?" Wang Yuhang was so mad!"
You guys are not nice. Whoever comes here has a reason to do so. They want to use us," Guna hummed.
This is not the time to talk about this, so let me ask again: do you have a way?" Han Sen frowned.
"No! The statue has been activated. Not even a King can get close to it. Unless someone deified is here, we will all die," Guna said.
"Is there no other way?" Han Sen asked, as he looked at the statue.
Guna hummed and said, "Yes. The other way is what the Kings are attempting. Break the godlight and take control of Purgatory Heaven the hard way; only then can you stop it."
"How do I control it?" Han Sen asked.
"It is difficult to control Purgatory Heaven if you don't have the blood of the Gana. The same would apply even if you were deified. But underneath the statue, there is a crack. You can escape Purgatory Heaven that way. That is what they planned to do, but they underestimated its power," Guna said, while pointing at the statue.
Han Sen looked in the direction she pointed to. The end of the statue's tail did indeed possess a tear in the fabric of space. There was a long mark there.
"That mark is where our deified elites fought their enemies. After a million years, it has yet to heal. That is why there is such a blatant flaw. Unfortunately, only deified elites can make use of it. King class elites cannot, so we most certainly can't," Guya said.

Chapter 1883 Blood Path
"We have to give it a shot, no matter what. We cannot willingly let ourselves die here!" Wang Yuhang said, then jumped into the godlight area.
When his legs and his head touched the godlight, it was like he had struck a plank of raw steel. He bounced off with a pang, and it was fortunate he was wearing Han Sen's Marquise armor. Had he not, that would have hurt.
"D*mn! Is that light or a wall of steel?" Wang Yuhang looked at the golden light.
"Why else do you think the Kings tried to run?" Guya looked at him with disdain.
Han Sen touched the golden light, and it was like stone. It was so smooth, he couldn't even find a seam or crevice. So, Han Sen tried to use his Ghost Teeth Knife to slice golden light. Sparks flew from the blade, but he could not break through the light.
"It's so hard!" Han Sen was shocked. They could not penetrate the wall, so it spoke volumes about the Kings who had been able to move through the light. But even so, despite their massive strength, they were unable to get close to the statue.
Wang Yuhang and Han Sen were both unable to enter the godlight, but the six Kings soon noticed them, even as they tried hitting the statue.
They looked around them and were shocked. They did not expect another big bunch of people to still be alive. On top of that, Han Sen's group only had average power.
Aside from Icebird Duke, the others were all decidedly weak.
When they saw Guna and Guya, however, they were even more shocked. And adding to that, they then looked happy.
The giant King, still clad in armor, walked before Han Sen. He grabbed Guya and Guna in his hands and took them over to the statue.
There was a long pause. Han Sen saw this happen, but he did not move, and the giant had already taken them and brought them before the statue.
"What does he want to do?" Wang Yuhang asked.
Icebird Duke coldly said, "They cannot break the godlight. They want to use Guna and Guya's blood to hopefully achieve a connection with Purgatory Heaven. It might enable them to reach the tear."
Han Sen could not say anything. After they were taken, their protective light went with them. The arms started to rise like mad. But Han Sen's people could not enter the godlight, so he kept on swinging his Knife Blank to cut down the arms.
"Buddha King, you are the best at this. I will let you handle it. Our survival solely depends on you," the Giant said, right before handing over Guna and Guya to the monk-like King.
"Who will go to hell if I don't?" The King recited the line of an ancient buddha, and then he raised his hand and became a buddha himself. In a shroud of white light, he came before Guya and Guna.
"The geno universe has monks, huh?" Han Sen was shocked, as he had thought that monks were a human thing.
They are not monks, they are the Buddha! They are one of the higher races," Icebird Duke said.
"Buddha?" Han Sen and Wang Yuhang came from the Alliance. Their faces looked strange.
The buddha's head was as smooth as a lightbulb, without a single hair, as if he had been born bald. The dots across his head were nine naturally-born moles. Guna and Guya's faces turned pale. It looked as if they wanted to struggle and get free. But beneath the Buddha Light of the Buddha King, they could not even flicker their eyelids.
Buddha King moved his finger, and then a Buddha Light landed between her eyebrows. Blood began to seep out of her brow.
It was more than a mere dribble, as well. Suddenly, it became a long streak of blood that floated away from her head. Its target became clear, as it began to drift towards the statue.
The blood began to suffuse into the golden light. Gold Jade King and the others started to gather up power, ready to strike the blood.
As the Kings prepared a frightening attack, the blood-tainted light started to crack. Blood began to fill the cracks like a blooming flower.
The Kings were happy with this result, and the giant shouted, "Buddha King! Take the essence of the other Gana, so we can escape with greater haste! The longer we are here, the more danger we are in."
"Amitabha!" Buddha King said again. His face did not look very kind. He pointed at Guya's forehead, and then more blood came flowing out. That too started to drift towards the statue.
With Guya and Guna's blood, the godlight seemed to have weakened. The six Kings kept attacking without reprieve. Then the godlight began to shatter.
The smashed light could not coalesce again because of the blood that was spreading through the rupture.
Gold Jade King and the others were all made supremely happy, as they were able to destroy the godlight with their crazed attacks. Now, they wanted to create a path through the godlight and head towards the rupture.
"These scumbag *ssholes!" Wang Yuhang was so mad, he punched the godlight. But he was too weak, and he could not even break the outer layer. All he did was make his fist numb.
Han Sen didn't like what had happened, either, but at the end of the day, it was just natural selection. He couldn't have helped Guna and Guya, even if he wanted to. And they weren't in a much better position themselves.
Their powers would not be enough to breach the godlight. Even if Gold Jade King cleaved a path all the way through, they had no choice of entering.
Han Sen could jump into the sanctuary for safety, alongside Wang Yuhang, but Dragon Lady and Han Meng'er did not have anywhere to hide. If they were left alone, they'd surely die.
Guna and Guya had been frozen stiff by the Buddha King. The essence of their blood continued to leak from their foreheads. The blood was leaking slowly, but they had already lost a large volume. Especially Guya.
The two of them looked so angry, hopeless, and sad. They looked at each other, but understood that neither of them could do a thing.
They could not even die holding each other. They stood where they were as their blood was stolen, bit by bit.
Gold Jade King and the other Kings were waiting for them to finish bleeding out. The godlight was cracked, and a blood path opened. They were only one meter away from the statue.
Roar!
A giant dragon-like Purgatory Beast was bom. It came rushing towards Han Sen like mad.
It was a high tier Purgatory Beasts. Seeing it, everyone's faces paled.

Chapter 1884 Heaven
Han Sen was busy cutting down the twisted arms as the dragon-like Purgatory Beast came rushing for them. He did not have the power to deal with it.
Dragon Lady and the others were starting to think that this was the end. They used all the powers they could exert against the Purgatory Beast, but it was all to no avail.
Han Sen frowned. He kept thinking, wondering if now was the time to use super king spirit.
Just as he was going to activate super king spirit, there was a loud boom. A giant body appeared, and it was the Giant King. He landed in front of them and used his hammer to smack down the Purgatory Beast.
"Go!" The giant killed the Purgatory Beast, and his body possessed a radiant godlight. He ran back into the godlight, and it looked as if he had been talking to Han Sen and the others.
This made Han Sen very happy, and he and the others followed Giant King into the goddess' godlight. They stayed near Giant King, whose light was like a shelter. It shielded them from the goddess' suppression.
"Giant King, why are you bringing them here instead of focusing on removing the godlight?" a King with a spear asked coldly.
Giant King's voice boomed like thunder, and he replied, "For this small group to have survived this long in Purgatory Heaven, they must be useful in some capacity. And furthermore, if we exhaust the blood of the Gana, we can use theirs."
"Like hell we can! The blood of these two Gana only works because they are of the goddess' bloodline. This group isn't even Gana, so what is the point!" The King with a spear kept attacking the godlight while he berated Giant King.
"It's better than nothing." Giant King hammered the crack again. His strong attacks could crack open the godlight, and the shockwaves almost tossed the others onto the floor.
Luckily, Giant King's power was sufficient to keep them protected. Otherwise, the force could very well have killed them.
"I thought they wanted to save us, but no. It seems that they are after something else!" Wang Yuhang said.
"No matter what the case is, it's better than getting killed out there, as seemed likely." Han Sen stood near the giant's foot. Han Sen was quite tall for a human, but even so, he only reached the giant's ankle.
"I just hope the Kings can clear a path for us," Icebird Duke said.
Many horrible powers came crashing against the godlight, and the path cleaved was becoming deeper and deeper.
Guna and Guya's blood was on the path, and it prevented the godlight from repairing its defenses.
Six elites kept striking at the path, and outside the godlight, the arms were rising and wriggling in countless numbers. There was an abundance of Purgatory Beasts, too.
They could not step into the godlight, and so they roared at the people inside.
In the beginning, there was just that dragon-like one, but then other Purgatory Beasts emerged. They all looked murderous.
There was a Purgatory Beast that looked like a real dragon, and it was flying in the sky. It looked as if it could consume everything.
Han Sen could also see a creature that resembled an angel of some sort, but it was black. Even its wings were black, too. It looked like it had come crawling out of purgatory.
Han Sen and the others felt like they were in some big glass bowl. If the bowl broke, any of the Purgatory Beasts could eat them.
It was fortunate that none of the creatures were able to set foot inside the godlight. Even so, Wang Yuhang and the others were very scared.
Boom!
There was an explosion, and the godlight shattered beneath the big hammer. Giant King had managed to destroy the final layer of the godlight. It revealed the statue body of the golden Gana.
The entrance they needed was by the statue's tail.
Guna and Guya were dying, as they had lost most of their blood. They were still alive because they were strong, but also because the Buddha King had forced them to remain alive. He was worried that their blood would be rendered ineffective if they died.
When the path opened up, Giant King ran straight for the crack. As the giant entered the crack, he became smaller and smaller. Eventually, he disappeared inside the space tunnel.
Gold Jade King and Buddha King went in at almost the same time. When Buddha King went in, he did so with a grip on Guna and Guya.
The rest of the elites went towards the crack, too. Han Sen and Icebird Duke followed Giant King. Giant King's body was getting smaller the further it went, until it slipped right into the tear.
Han Sen and the others were the last to draw near the crack, and luckily, the path was still dyed red. It hadn't been suppressed by the godlight yet. So, quickly, he jumped into the crack.
The dimensional tear in the fabric of that space was crooked. Han Sen dug himself in, and he felt the same sensation he'd get when using a teleporter. Space turned blurry, and when his vision was restored, he was someplace completely different.
He was atop a sea of clouds. There were many palaces built in a sky realm. There were many large plants, adorned with flowers all around them. It was a picturesque scene of heaven, as taken from long ago myths.
Han Sen and the others appeared in the plaza of one particular palace. There was a gold fountain at its center, and it looked incredibly beautiful.
But when Han Sen entered that heavenly place, his gut clenched. His powers had vanished. He couldn't feel anything anymore. He was like an average commoner, without a modicum of extra power.
Han Sen looked around, and so did Icebird Duke. And when they did, they were shocked.
It wasn't just them, either. Giant King himself looked stunned, and none of the other Kings looked to be faring well.
Guna and Guya, who had been under the control of the Buddha, now had their freedom restored. Buddha King's Buddha Light had all vanished.
"Welcome to Heaven. The Gana Heaven." Guna and Guya helped each other up as they clenched their teeth. They looked very angry.
Their anger was understandable, though. The Gana had been treated like worthless slaves, and their blood had been sucked dry. It was only natural for them to be angry.
Han Sen thought things were quickly turning sour. This was not a way out.

Chapter 1885 Imprisoned
The gold fountain unleashed a gold light. The gold light descended on Guna and Guya, quickly repairing their ravaged bodies. When Giant King witnessed this, he ran to the fountain and threw his hands into the water to try and absorb that same power.
"Argh!" Giant King cried. The spring water was like a corrosive acid on his hands.
The water was good for Guna and Guya, but it was deadly for Giant King.
Guya coldly looked at Giant King and said, "I told you that this is Gana's Heaven. For you, this place is nothing short of hell. Only the Gana have power here, and can receive the boons bestowed by their goddess. We are practically invulnerable. All your power is stripped, so you are little better than an ordinary creature."
After that, she smiled and went on to say, "It is in thanks to you lot that we are here, of course. Even if we had tried to use our own blood, we wouldn't have made it here alone."
"Is this Purgatory Heaven's Heaven?" Buddha King frowned.
Yes. Outside is purgatory, and here is heaven," Guya said.
"I have heard heaven is in the clouds. Why is it here? We arrived here through a slipspace crack, which we broke open!" Gold Jade King said.
"The 'slipspace crack* was just a lie that we created about Purgatory Heaven. The gold clouds outside are just a path that can take you to purgatory, through the statue. The clouds won't kill you, but you can be killed in heaven—by someone with power, of course." Guna said this, and then punched Giant King in the head.
The strong Giant King was sent soaring. After his descent, he rolled violently until he came crashing into a wall, coughing up blood.
Giant King stood up in a fury. He was a King who had never been humiliated before, and he really wanted to fight back. Before he could straighten himself up, though, Guna came forward and punched him again. This time, he went flying into the clouds.
Guya did not join Guna, and she simply walked to the palace near the fountain.
Not long after, the clouds rumbled. Many clouds rose, and they each looked like a cage. Many creatures were inside them, and Giant King was one of them.
Han Sen now learned that the creatures that were trapped here were the ones who had been zapped by flying into the clouds. He knew Guya wasn't lying, as all of those creatures were here.
They had been trapped in the clouds, and while they had not died, they most certainly weren't free. Death was still an inevitability for them, though.
Many clouds came towards the palace. Han Sen saw that the clouds that flew there housed Gana.
Han Sen counted their numbers, and he noted that most of the Gana were here now. Han Sen tallied thirty or forty. It seemed as if they had planned to be captured, all so they could end up here.
It was the same for the other creatures who had been trapped by the clouds. They couldn't get out on their own.
But now, things were different. The clouds were supported by some phantom power. The Gana were sent to the palace, and the clouds faded from sight. They were free now.
The Gana were so happy, and they all bowed to Guna. They then proceeded to speak their own language, which was one that Han Sen did not understand.
"Throw them all in the clouds. They deserve it," Guna said angrily, pointing at the Kings.
The Gana headed towards Gold Jade King and the others. They could not use geno armor, so they were pretty much worse than the average commoner. And while they had skills, they did not have the power to make use of them. Quickly, they were taken to the sea of clouds.
"Hey! Hey! We are together!" One Gana approached Han Sen and tried to take them, too. Wang Yuhang was quick to shout. He even turned to Guna and said, "Guna, we meant you no harm. We went through all that together. Doesn't that make us friends?"
Guna looked at Wang Yuhang, and then Han Sen, and said with a venomous tone, "You guys are not nice people, either. Get moving."
Han Sen knew he had kidnapped Guna, which hadn't made her very happy. She wouldn't consider him a friend.
"You guys are not loyal at all." When Wang Yuhang saw the Gana approaching, he started to tread backwards.
"This is pointless. Let's just jump!" Han Sen made it sound easy. He was, of course, referring to a jump into the clouds.
Han Meng'er and Dragon Lady jumped without thinking. Icebird Duke didn't fancy getting hit, so she did so, too.
Wang Yuhang didn't think there was another way out of there, so he jumped as well.
Not long after, they found themselves floating inside the clouds. They were trapped inside them.
Giant King and Gold Jade King were in a similar situation. This Heavenly power of imprisonment was scary. Aside from the Gana, no King could escape. It was likely only a deified being would be able to break the chains that bound them.
Guya walked out of the palace. Her hands were clutching a piece of golden jewelry. Han Sen couldn't tell what it was, but Guya could use the power of the gemstones to control the clouds.
Han Sen sat in his cloud, watching Guna and the others. He wasn't going to just sit there, of course. He was going to figure a way to sort all this out.
In Gana's Heaven, all powers other than the Gana's were suppressed. Even Ghost Teeth Knife had no power. He could not summon geno armaments, either.
But Han Sen had one thing that wasn't restricted: the Knife Blank that was currently in his hand. There was still a strange power inside it. Aside from the Knife Blank, Han Sen also felt a power inside him that was not restricted.
Guna and Guya were at the edge of the palace. They looked at the people they had imprisoned, and their gazes were looked. It looked like they wanted to murder their prisoners.

Chapter 1886 I Make the Calls
Guya looked at Buddha King. The clouds that trapped Buddha King rose up and drifted over to her.
"Did you take the leader?" Guya asked Buddha King expressionlessly.
"Amitabha! I don't know what you mean!" Buddha King said, after speaking out his buddha phrase.
Guya looked at Buddha King and went on to say, "I know how powerful the Kao are. Without support, they wouldn't have been brave enough to betray us in the manner that they did."
"Amitabha! What does that have to do with me?" Buddha King said.
You think the Buddha Duke's meeting with the Kao leader slipped our notice?" Guya looked angry, and she went on to say, "If the leader had simply listened to me, none of this would have happened. Tell me! Where did the leader go?"
Now Han Sen understood why they had not met a stronger Gana. At the auction, they had only seen Viscounts.
The Dukes had not appeared, and neither had the Earls. They had already been taken by Buddha King.
Buddha King and the Kao had used the auction house as a distraction for the other races. While it played out, the more important Gana were successfully kidnapped. Buddha King and the Kao hadn't expected the Purgatory Heaven to come into play.
It wasn't Buddha King's fault, of course. No one expected the Gana's deified item to have been in the Gana's hands. Or for it to have been inside a random statue.
"Amitabha! If you release me, I will keep you safe and bring you all together again." Buddha King admitted he had his hands on their leader, clearly planning to use this as leverage.
As soon as Buddha King said this, though, Guya drew a ghostly scimitar and swung it toward his neck.
In a split second, the King class elite was beheaded. His head rolled across the floor, with his eyes open. No one had expected Guya to simply cut his head off.
The other Kings were all in shock after what they had witnessed. Guya was a very decisive individual. In this heaven, a King class elite's life was as worthless and weak as the average commoner's. There was no need to pay them respect.
Han Sen was shocked, but it made sense. Guya had already cast a spell to activate Purgatory Heaven, so yes, the fact she was a very decisive person was already established.
"Sister! You killed Buddha King. What about our leader?" Guna sounded worried.
Guya coldly said, "Killing him did not make a difference. Our leader isn't going to be returned, but don't worry; he's not going to die. He will likely be made a slave, for the Buddha won't kill him."
The other Kings did not speak, and Guya was correct. The Gana couldn't save anyone. If they had been reckless and left Purgatory Heaven, Buddha King would have found a chance. Instead of saving their kin, they'd end up captured like the rest.
Everyone knew this was a familial matter, but not everyone could make a decision like her.
Guya killing Buddha King had put an end to his tricks and deception. It also counted as vengeance for her own people. When Guya looked at the clouds, she noticed that all the elites were in shock.
"You!" Guya looked at Han Sen. She spoke one word, and Han Sen's cloud started flying towards her.
Everyone was shocked. No one expected that the second guy she'd kill to be Han Sen.
"What are you doing? We have been through so much together. We didn't take your blood, and neither have we forced you to do anything against your will. Why don't you kill the guys who robbed you of your blood instead of Old Han, huh?" Wang Yuhang said.
Guya ignored him and looked at Han Sen. "But you did bully Guna, did you not?"
"What do you want from me, then?" Han Sen asked, sitting on the cloud.
"You did not harm Guna, and you did help us. I can give you one chance." Guya looked at Guna while speaking to Han Sen.
"What do I do with this chance?" Han Sen did not believe she would let him go so easily.
"Kill them, and you vdll be considered one of us." Guya pointed at Gold Jade King, Giant King, and the others.
The five Kings were sent forward, near Han Sen.
"Good idea! Killing this many elites will gain me so many enemies, and that's just what I need. Even a King of the Rebate? Not even Knife Queen would protect me for such a transgression! With this leverage, I could only work for you and no one else. If I don't do what you say, you can tell the others and make me one of the universe's Most Wanted,"
Han Sen said coldly.
"Are you going to kill them or not?" Guya asked, looking at Han Sen.
"Sure! Why not? They're not my family. There's no point giving up my own life for theirs." Han Sen just shrugged with his shoulders.
"Good. Use this to cut their heads off, and then you will be considered a friend." Guya gave the Ghost Scimitar to Han Sen.
Giant King and Gold Jade King were surrounded by clouds. They could not move. They watched Han Sen approach, still holding his knife.
"Han Sen, do you really want to betray Knife Queen and the Rebate?" Gold Jade King said icily.
"From what I recall, you never treated me as one of the Rebate, anyway. If you did, you would have taken me with you when you tried to escape. Now you think I'm betraying you? Is this a joke or something?" Han Sen slightly pressed the weapon against Gold Jade King's neck. The touch of the blade gave him a cold sweat.
But Han Sen did not cut him. He then brought the scimitar in front of Giant King and said, "What did you say? You said if their blood was not enough, you'd use ours. I should kill you for that, shouldn't I?"
"Kill me if you want to. Just the crap and get on with it," Giant King said stolidly.
Han Sen didn't strike. He walked past each elite, and eventually he turned back to Guya and said, "These are five King class elites. It would be a shame to kill them all. You should hold onto them."
"If you don't kill them, I will kill you and your friends," Guya said dangerously.
"There is no way we are dying." Han Sen smiled.
"That is not up to you to decide. I decide what happens here," Guya said.
Han Sen threw the Ghost Scimitar back to Guya and said, "From now on, I call the shots. You and Guna can be my secretaries. Treat this place nicely, and I will treat you nice in return."
Guya, Guna, the Gana, and the Kings all looked at Han Sen like he was a madman.

Chapter 1887 Give You a Chance
"Did you really just say that? Are you sick?" Guna asked, lifting her lips in a sneer.
Guya looked at Han Sen and slowly said, "Han Sen, you are special. That is why I have given you this opportunity. You have the chance to be friends with the Gana. This is Purgatory Heaven; unless a deified elite appears, no one can challenge my will. Buddha King is a good example for you to follow. Or do you not want to end up like him?"
Han Sen nodded and said, "And I thought you were smart. I'm the one giving you a chance here. You and Guna can become my secretaries and nothing more. Don't misunderstand that."
"This *sshole has lost his marbles. Let's lock him up," Guna told the others.
Guya used her gem to control the clouds again. But it didn't seem like the clouds could be used to capture people unless they jumped off the platform. Guya had erased Han Sen's cloud, since she expected him to kill the Kings. In order for her to gain control of him, he would have to go to the cloud first.
A few Gana Viscounts rushed towards Han Sen, hoping to capture him quickly.
The Kings that had been locked up now watched Han Sen. They wondered what he was planning.
In this place, not even the Kings could fight against the Gana. Unless they had a deified elite using deified items, the Gana were practically invincible. The Kings could not fight them, and Han Sen was a Baron.
Icebird Duke could not fathom what sort of trick Han Sen was looking to play. Killing the Kings would have guaranteed Han Sen's survival. But he hadn't taken the offer, and now things were uncertain.
While Han Sen had pulled off unbelievable performances in battle elsewhere, Purgatory Heaven was different. Not even Icebird Duke thought he could fight back here. Still, she hoped he'd pull something off. If there was one thing Icebird Duke did know about Han Sen, it was that he wasn't crazy.
Seeing a few Viscounts rapidly approaching, Han Sen had yet to move a muscle. Eventually, he drew out his Knife Blank.
The Gana Viscounts weren't very concerned about that, though. Thus far, only the Gana had been able to use items of power there.
Boom!
A scary presence exploded out of Han Sen, as if it was breaking the earth. He was like a beast, laying eyes on heaven. Teeth Knife Knifemind!" Gold Jade King and Icebird Duke both squealed.
The Teeth Knife of the Rebate was quite famous. And even so, not many people were able to practice it. Even fewer could make proper use of it out in the field.
Han Sen was an outsider. It was absolutely shocking that he could use Teeth powers, almost unbelievable.
But right now, that was not the primary concern. It wasn't just that he was using Teeth Knife Knifemind; it was amazing that he had been able to summon power at all, while else was suppressed by the deified rules that governed the place.
Gold Jade King and the others had very strong wills, but in Purgatory Heaven, they were unable to release it. Han Sen's Knifemind could be used to its full extent, without suffering from the hampering and suppression of Purgatory Heaven. But this was because Han Sen's Knifemind had reached the level of Purgatory Heaven. That was the reason it was not suppressed.
But Han Sen was just a Baron. How was it possible for him to have such an experienced Knifemind?
All the Nobles were in shock. It made some people jump to the conclusion that Han Sen himself was a deified elite in disguise. Aside from deified elites, who could reveal such a formidable Knifemind, here of all places?
"What is this? How long has he been practicing Teeth Knife? How is it possible for him to have learned the Teeth Knife Knifemind? This mind, if I am not mistaken, is greater than the queen's own." Icebird Duke could scarcely believe the current spectacle.
But there it was, Han Sen and his Knifemind. He was nothing short of a monster. The Gana Viscounts suddenly started to fall back, looking extremely pale.
A deified Knifemind was a very cruel thing, and it could break a person's will simply with the weight of its presence.
But a Knifemind was just a Knifemind, and Han Sen did not have a deified body. If an elder of the Rebate was present, the Knifemind could have been used to kill all the Gana a long time ago.
Guna and Guya looked at Han Sen in shock. The Knifemind they were witnessing was rendering them speechless.
"Is he deified?" Guna was extremely shocked.
"Impossible! I haven't a clue why he has this Knifemind, but he is not deified. Why are you all still standing there? Go and get him! This heaven belongs to the Gana. It is a sanctuary built specifically for us. We're safe here!" Guya was actually quite frightened by what was going on. Still, she managed to keep herself under control and issue commands, telling her people to snatch Han Sen.
In Heaven, unless the Gana were killed, their wounds would seal up and heal at a tremendously fast pace. They were pretty much almost immortal, in many regards.
Seeing the Gana Nobles continue to advance, Han Sen said, "I don't want to hurt any of you, so why are you pushing me to do just that?"
Han Sen was depressed. He had planned to use his powerful Knifemind to bluff his enemies. But evidently, Guya was too smart for that. Han Sen's plans had fallen apart.
A Knifemind was just a Knifemind, after all. Using it with knife skills was very powerful, but a Knifemind on its own did nothing. Aside from the Knife Blank and the deified Knifemind, Han Sen's power was under a big strain.
Guya did not show any sign of relenting, and she continued to command her Gana troops to apprehend Han Sen.
"In that case, I must resort to Plan B." Han Sen's eyes began to shine, and soon after, the light quickly spread to the rest of his body.
Han Sen's Plan B was always the same: he would assume the identity of Dollar. He activated his super king spirit.
His black hair became sparklingly white. It grew quickly, becoming a long white stream of hair. His body glowed with holy light.
As the light shone from him, his body did not look real. Instead, he looked like a burned plate of steel. He was like a half-transparent god. Incredible power surged out of him. Everyone was in shock. They watched the god-like body approach.
"He really can use his powers in Heaven!" Guna looked stunned. She took a few steps back.
A few Viscounts were directly before Han Sen right now. They swung their swords and arms towards him. They were afraid. They had originally planned to take him alive, but now they were keen to wave their swords instead.
When the swordlights came against Han Sen, it was like they were hitting nothing. They didn't hurt Han Sen at all.

Chapter 1888 Deified Elite
"How is that possible?" Everyone stared at Han Sen, who currently looked like a god.
The Gana people used all their powers on Han Sen, but they accomplished nothing. Han Sen's body was like that of a real deity. He could shrug off any mortal damage inflicted upon him.
Icebird Duke looked at Han Sen. She was totally frozen, and her mind had come to a complete standstill. This was partly due to shock, but it was also because she had now discovered a secret. A very scary secret.
Icebird Duke was Yisha's best friend. She was also her most loyal follower. Yisha put her absolute trust in Icebird Duke. They shared a lot of secrets with each other, and they disclosed many private and personal matters.
Yisha had told Icebird Duke that she was once bullied by someone in Demon's Grave. The man that had bullied her was called Dollar.
Yisha had commanded her to keep her ears to the ground and learn anything she could about the elusive Dollar. Thus far, Icebird Duke had come up with zilch. But Yisha knew what Dollar looked like, and she was able to describe his powers.
The power Han Sen currently wielded was very similar to what Yisha had described. Yisha had mentioned all this more than once, so Icebird Duke remembered it well.
"Han Sen is Dollar? This is scary!" Icebird Duke felt chilled, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
Yisha's important, all-mighty student was, in fact, her nemesis—the one she despised the most. Just thinking about that cruel twist of fate made Icebird Duke's mind go for a loop. And as she looked down at Han Sen, he suddenly looked like a demon.
Han Sen did not have time to act in a model manner, though. When he donned his super king spirit mode, he lifted his Ghost Teeth Knife and let the knife rage with purple light. The purple light rose tangibly across the blade.
Super king spirit let Han Sen release the powers contained within all his gear. Like the holy angel bone arrow, Ghost Teeth Knife activated its own power.
Ghost Teeth Knife's power, combined with Han Sen's deified knifemind, rendered Guna and Guya speechless.
There was only one explanation for Han Sen being able to use terrifying powers like that in Purgatory Heaven; he must be a deified elite. Only deified elites could use their powers in Heaven, just as he was doing.
As they thought about fighting a deified elite, the Gana suddenly felt hopeless. Their faces were drawn and drained of color. Things weren't looking good for them.
Guya was the palest of the bunch, though. She had the stone to control Purgatory Heaven, but she was not deified herself. All she had was the blood of the goddess' lineage. She couldn't control Heaven well. And she knew she wouldn't be able to compete or bring that power to heel.
Gold Jade King and the other imprisoned Nobles all stared at Han Sen. Gold Jade King could not believe Knife Queen's student was that strong.
Han Sen pulled out his Ghost Teeth Knife and started swinging it towards Guna and Guya. The lights of the knife were like individual monsters, wanting to swallow the entire dimension they resided in.
Guna and Guya's faces turned grey. The Gana wanted to help them, but the knife was way too fast. They couldn't react in time, and it was already coming down on the two women.
It didn't hit Guna or Guya, though. It actually flew past them, striking the fountain behind them.
Katcha!
With that surge of power, the entire palace behind them was sundered in half.
That wasn't the end, either. After the scary Teeth power cut the palace in two, it spread. A purple mist was swallowing it, making the palace looked like some cursed ruin.
Boom!
When the palace was covered in this purple mist, it suddenly shattered and fell to pieces. Dust choked the air, and the entirety of the heavenly realm rattled and shook.
Everyone was in utter shock. Seeing the god-like man and the palace he had reduced to rubble, no one could find the words to speak.
Han Sen put the knife back in the sheath on his waist, and then the white light faded. He looked normal once again. He looked at Guna and Guya and coldly said, "I thought you two were smart, and I would very much like to give you another chance. I'd like you and Guna to become my secretaries. What do you think of that proposal now?"
It was almost the same sentences as before, but now, the words sounded very different than before. Guya was catatonic. She just stood where she was. Now that Han Sen had dismissed that incredible power, he looked even more mysterious. He was like a god, disguised as a mortal.
Guya pulled Guna closer, and then she knelt. "Guna and I are willing to follow you. Our lives are dedicated to your service. Please spare us and the rest of our race from certain annihilation."
irk-k
Planet Crooked Rock had suffered one mighty disaster. All the creatures there had been killed in one day, and that included all the Kings that were there. No corpses were left behind, either.
When the rescue teams arrived, they couldn't find anything living. But judging from what they could see, a few people conjectured about what had happened. Purgatory Heaven was not a big secret, so they guessed that the Gana had attacked. Others came after that to investigate this incident, wanting to know where Purgatory Heaven was.
Han Sen was on his way back, on his ship. And he had something on his mind that was giving him quite the headache.
Guya and Guna were obeying him now, and Han Sen had taken measures to keep their lives in his hands and ensure they wouldn't revolt.
Purgatory Heaven consumed everything on Planet Crooked Rock. It had stopped now, but the gem Guna and Guya used to control the statue had become a little gold statue that Han Sen had brought with him.
The Nobles and Gana were still locked in that Heaven, and Han Sen wasn't planning to let them out anytime soon. After all, they had seen Han Sen become a super king spirit. He couldn't trust them fully, and so he couldn't release them back into the universe.
Especially Icebird Duke. He could not let her see Yisha again.
But if Icebird Duke did not return, what would he tell Yisha about what happened?
If he said that Icebird Duke disappeared on the planet, then how would he explain the fact that he was fine? If he told her that they weren't on Planet Crooked Rock, why would Icebird Duke be gone?
Han Sen had gotten a headache just thinking about how he could explain all this.
The ship was not at Narrow Moon just yet, and still, Yisha's battleship had come to meet with him. Her sudden appearance gave Han Sen a shock. He knew Yisha was coming after him and Icebird Duke.

Chapter 1889 Temporarily Passed
"Where is Icebird Duke?" Yisha asked Han Sen as they stood on the Knife Battleship.
"Queen, I do not know where Icebird Duke is." Han Sen gave her a wry smile. He wasn't planning on admitting anything. Plus, no one had survived on that planet, and they were all trapped in Purgatory Heaven. As long as he did not admit what had happened, no evidence would be unearthed to suggest otherwise.
"How can you not know? Icebird Duke should have been by your side at all times, protecting you!" Yisha spoke to him calmly, but Han Sen could detect what was really boiling beneath the surface. If he gave her the wrong answer, God only knew what would happen.
Han Sen did not hesitate to tell her, "Icebird Duke and I went to Planet Crooked Rock. I wanted to see if I could recruit a few of the Gana, but when I arrived, I realized I had no chance. So, I asked her to help me recruit. But then, the Kao revolted. They put the Gana on auction. We were invited, so Icebird Duke went ahead to the auction. With someone else to recruit on my behalf, I didn't bother going."
"And then what happened?" Yisha asked.
"And then I recruited them. Before we got back to the ship, the entire planet was veiled by gold clouds. And there were many arms coming out of the ground, alongside many beasts that crawled out of some nether. We tried to hide in a cave, and we fought those monsters side-by-side! After a day of this, the beasts, arms, and clouds disappeared. When we got back to the ship, we noticed Icebird Duke was gone, and so were many others! Everyone else on the entire planet was gone too."
Han Sen cooked up a hearty mixture of lies and truths to sell the story. He had to keep running with this yarn, whether or not Yisha believed him.
Yisha looked at Han Sen, Han Meng'er, Dragon Lady, Wang Yuhang, and then looked back to Han Sen. "How did you deal with those creatures and the arms?"
"Those arms were scary! Our powers didn't do anything. If we were grabbed, we'd be pulled into the ground. The beasts were even scarier! Our powers did nothing to hinder their assault. Only Spell and Meng'er were able to fight them," Han Sen said.
"You are saying that Spell and her powers can defeat the Purgatory Beasts?" Yisha asked with a frown.
"Yes, but they can't deal with the arms. But we survived because of this item. It enabled us to shred the arms." Han Sen presented her with his Knife Blank, showing it off.
Yisha took the Knife Blank and gave it a stroke with her fingers. She released some sort of purple power onto the Knife Blank, but the power could not be absorbed.
Yisha looked shocked, and she said, "This Knife Blank is godly! It is no wonder it could cut through those hell hands." "With the god element, does that mean it is a deified item?" Han Sen was happy to hear this.
Yisha shook her head and said, "It is not a deified item. It is just a material for a deified item."
"That is great! I can forge it into an item of some sort, then, yes? You should take this knife, my queen. You should forge it into a godly knife, and make it something properly deified. And then, you can shock the whole universe!" Han Sen said quickly.
You are willing to give this to me?" Yisha smiled at Han Sen, as she held onto the Knife Blank.
"Of course! You are my master, after all. Your glory is my glory. If you achieve more, I would be even more proud. This is just a meager Knife Blank. If I had a deified knife, I'd give that to you first. If your life is getting better, then my life is sure to improve, too." Han Sen looked awfully sincere.
Yisha looked much nicer now, but she gave it back to Han Sen. "You are nice, but this Knife Blank was obtained in the Knife Grave. It'll be difficult to forge it, and it isn't too godly. I can't make it into something powerful, I am afraid."
After a pause, Yisha continued speaking to Han Sen. "I will ask someone else to escort you to Planet Eclipse. I am going to Planet Crooked Rock, where I hope to find a lead on the whereabouts of Icebird Duke. I will avenge and destroy any who has done something bad to Icebird."
"Icebird Duke was put in danger because of me. I should go with you," Han Sen said.
"It's okay. And by the way, don't tell others you have been to Planet Crooked Rock. That will bring unnecessary hassle. It'd be bad." After a brief talk with Han Sen, Yisha sent him on his way to Narrow Moon. She went ahead to Planet Crooked Rock.
Han Sen felt a lot of relief when he was back. Somehow, he had made it through. Even if she did not believe him entirely, he should remain safe as long as she was not able to find any evidence that contradicted his story.
Han Sen brought his companions into the base. Then he gave Wang Yuhang a truckload of xenogeneic genes, wanting him to get stronger and generate a geno armor.
Although there was a Marquise class armor, Han Sen was worried that the man was so weak that he'd end up getting killed anyway.
Han Sen had nothing but Baron class xenogeneic genes, but that was fine for Wang Yuhang. And after a few days, Wang Yuhang's xenogeneic gene tally reached one hundred.
Wang Yuhang started to evolve, and he ended up generating a black geno armor.
But he couldn't evolve a second time, so Han Sen gave him a Magnet Fruit. He made it and became a fully-fledged Baron.
"Little Uncle! Your geno armament is cool." Han Sen looked at Wang Yuhang's geno armament in surprise.
Wang Yuhang's geno armament was a black dirt bike. It looked like a vintage model, but it looked sweet.
"Haha! I knew I was born a special chap. It looks pretty bad*ss, huh? If you need anything, I got your back." Wang Yuhang looked so cocky, sitting on his new bike.
"What powers does it have?" Han Sen asked with curiosity,
"It's awesome!" Wang Yuhang said, then started the bike. He drove around the base and returned to Han Sen. He proudly said, "What do you think? Fast? Powerful?"
The speed is okay, but what else does it do, aside from carry you?" Han Sen asked.
"I can run over people!" Wang Yuhang sounded a bit weak.
"So it deals no damage. Does it have any other function? Like, can it fly? Can it carry you across water?" Han Sen asked.
"Bro, this is a bike! You are talking about boats and planes." Wang Yuhang laughed.
Han Sen felt his heart sink. This bike was like any other he could buy. It could drive him around and little else.

Chapter 1890 Returning to the Red Mist Valley
Han Sen thought about it, though, and he decided that the bike was probably quite suitable for someone like Wang Yuhang. If the man could use it to escape things chasing him, then it would be useful enough. Perhaps when the armament evolved some more, it would develop other abilities.
Yisha learned nothing from her trip to Planet Crooked Rock. All the factions were now in search of Purgatory Heaven, but no one had turned up any leads yet.
Han Sen was going to take Wang Yuhang to explore the Red Mist Valley, but Yisha gave Han Sen a call and told him they needed to talk about something important.
Han Sen went to meet with her, all the while thinking over any trace of evidence he might have left suggesting what had really gone down on Planet Crooked Rock. He didn't think he had, though.
When they met, she said, "Buddha Ambassador will be visiting Narrow Moon, and there will be a meeting. If you have nothing important that requires your immediate attendance, I suggest you attend," Yisha said.
Han Sen felt some relief, hearing what she wanted. She didn't want to talk about Planet Crooked Rock and the missing Icebird Duke. Knowing this, he felt much more at ease.
"Queen, why would the Buddha visit Narrow Moon? What is all this going to be about?" Han Sen asked.
Yisha said, "The Rebate are quite friendly with the Buddha. We are close allies. The meeting is a formality to sustain our friendship and exchange geno arts. The people who can join the get-together are usually the best of the best." Yisha paused for a moment, before going on to say, "The Rebate usually send in members of the Moon Garden. You may not be one of them, but you can still observe the proceedings. The geno arts of the Buddhas are fairly unique, and it might be quite useful for you to learn them. Even if you cannot try them out, you can watch them, at least."
Yes, my queen; I will take a look." Han Sen did not know what the point of going there actually was, but if Yisha was telling him he should go, he thought there had to be more to it.
But Yisha didn't explain any further, so he didn't ask.
Yisha spoke about the Buddha, though. And it jogged Han Sen's memory about something.
After Buddha King was killed by Guya, Han Sen had found two items. One was a Buddha necklace, and the other was a scroll.
The scroll was scrawled in the text of the Buddha. After its translation, Han Sen learned that it was about a geno art called Unlimited Sutra.
Han Sen checked it out. The main part of the text pertained to evolving, which was practically useless where Han Sen was concerned. He wasn't interested in a technique that could generate a geno armor.
What did interest him, though, were the additions of smaller techniques around the main body of text. It was interesting, and it helped Han Sen understand more about the Buddha.
The Buddha necklace was a high-class treasure, but Han Sen could not use it. Maybe the user required a certain blood lineage or a special power of some sort.
Yisha was allowing Han Sen to participate in the event, and Han Sen thought it might give him a look into Unlimited Sutra. That would only further his knowledge about the Buddha.
After Han Sen left, Yisha picked up a book and got to reading it. She was in a foul mood. Icebird Duke was still missing, someplace on Planet Crooked Rock. And Yisha had no clue whether she was alive or dead.
The spots for properly taking part in the event were only available to members of the Moon Garden. But now, the ten Kings of Narrow Moon—aside from two Kings that did not have any students of their own—could allow their students and children to attend.
It was only Yisha's student that wasn't allowed a spot in the proceedings. Hers was relegated to spectating. It made her feel quite poorly.
Yisha still allowed Han Sen to go there, though, because she wanted Han Sen to learn more.
There was something else that made her eager for him to go, too. Han Sen was not a member, so if he was challenged by one of the Buddha students, the challenge couldn't happen.
Han Sen went back to the base and got back to reading Unlimited Sutra. Then, he gave Wang Yuhang a call. He also called the others and told them all to rendezvous at Red Mist Valley.
The mist in Red Mist Valley was thick. It could be clearly seen from as far as ten miles away. The mist resembled fiery clouds.
Fortunately, it was Planet Eclipse. The magnetic storms and vortexes in the sky were scary. No one could see such things from the sky, and so many of the planet's secrets had yet to be discovered.
"Little Uncle, all of this hinges on you," Han Sen told Wang Yuhang as he pointed down into the valley.
Wang Yuhuang was wearing the Marquise armor, and he confidently gave Han Sen a don't worry gesture. "I will handle this. I'm good at this sort of thing."
Wang Yuhang summoned his bike and rode it towards the valley.
He didn't speed straight in. At first, he skirted the entrance before spinning around. He shouted out towards the valley, "Everyone hanging out in this mist, listen! Grampa Wang is here! If you guys don't come out of here, I'll destroy you!"
Wang Yuhang shouted, and then a sudden chorus of screams erupted from within the mist. And then, many fiery shadows started to emerge, coming straight for him.
"Mama mia!" Wang Yuhang put his foot down on the pedal and escaped with his bike. The bike's speed was very good for a Baron armament, but compared to the fiery shadows, it was actually quite slow. He had only made it a few meters before the shadows had caught up with him.
There was a pang and Wang Yuhang crashed his bike. He was sent flying a dozen meters before he hit the ground. He rolled quite a bit before coming to a total stop.
Luckily, Wang Yuhang was wearing the Marquise armor. If he hadn't, he'd have been a dead man by now.
But even though he had the armor, he still felt very dizzy. He picked himself up off the ground, and soon enough, a fiery shadow was before him again. It knocked him away once more.
Han Sen, Gu Qingcheng, and Xie Qing King finally noticed that the fiery shadow was a beast shrouded in red mist. It looked a mink, with three eyes.
The red mist looked as if it was actually under the red beast's control. Every time the creature attacked, though, it left marks across Wang Yuhang's armor.
"Quick! I'm going to die!" Wang Yuhang screamed as the creature happily tossed him around. The beast could not break the Marquise armor, but the force with which it shook him was still enough to have him spewing blood.
Han Sen put on his rabbit shoes. Without hesitation, he leaped towards the little monster and swung his Ghost Teeth Knife, which was swirling with purple light.
There was no one else around, so he did not have to hide anything. He used his Jadeskin's godlight—which was Viscount class—with the Ghost Teeth Knife's knifemind, and struck the beast. It cut through the shadow and left behind a cleft on the creature's skin.

Chapter 1891 Red Mist Mink
The little beast got hit, and it squealed in agony. It turned around and jumped towards Han Sen. Han Sen was very fast, and because his rabbit shoes were Duke class, he had Duke class speed to run with.
The beast was only Earl class, so it was much slower than Han Sen.
Han Sen moved like a shadow. He swung his Ghost Teeth Knife and hit the little beast again. Every time he did this, a small wound was left on the creature. Over time, after many more strikes, those cuts were all over its body.
The wounds kept bleeding as a purple mist oozed out of the injuries. It was only a matter of time before the wounds started to spread.
The beast was injured, and being unable to withstand the pain, it sought to race back into Red Mist Valley to escape.
Han Sen felt depressed. He had the speed, and he had a good knife to boot. Unfortunately, his powers were actually quite weak. The Viscount class godlight, with Teeth Knife, could not grievously injure the Earl class beast.
He continued to slash at the beast as well as he could, but the foe was still able to escape into the valley.
"Little Uncle, draw him out again!" Han Sen retreated to a position where he could hide.
Little Uncle ran back to the entrance, but this time without the bike. The bike was too weak right now, so it was pointless bringing it before an Earl.
"Where are you running off to, boy? Come out and fight Grandpa Wang again!" Wang Yuhang kept barking into the mist, but the creature did not reveal itself again. Perhaps it was because the beast really was quite injured.
Wang Yuhang shouted like that for a while, until his voice started to crack and leave him. Still, their foe refused to reveal itself again.
"Hey, is it working? If it doesn't work, we'll just have to find another way," Xie Qing King shouted at Wang Yuhang.
Wang Yuhang acted confidently, and he said, "What do you mean? Is it working? No! But I am a man, and I will not give up so easily!"
After that, Wang Yuhang turned his back to the entrance of the mist-veiled valley and pulled down his pants. He bent over to reveal his butt, and in a bid to provoke the enemies inside the mist, spread his cheeks. "If you have the balls, you'd come out and fight with me! Otherwise, your kid is my kid."
Squeak!
After Wang Yuhang shouted, a red shadow appeared. It was the same beast, and it was still bleeding from the lacerations it had procured earlier. It ran out, very angry, as if Wang Yuhang had just slaughtered its parents.
Wang Yuhang started running, and eventually resummoned his armor. Unfortunately, he was a little late in doing that, and he suffered a bite. He lost a big chunk of flesh from his backside, which bled profusely.
"Oh my God!" Wang Yuhang kept running as fast as he could. Fortunately, he was able to reequip the armor and avoid getting bitten again. But the blood from his bum dyed the armor red.
The beast was still not keen on giving up, though, and it kept running after Wang Yuhang.
Han Sen gripped his knife and ran out after it. With his speed, he caught up rapidly. The Ghost Teeth Knife, with Tusk, had created a nasty wound on the monster. The beast's recovery had been slow, as a result. The wounds it had incurred were still bleeding, and they were continuing to spread.
The beast wanted to kill Little Uncle, but Han Sen hit it again. Now that it had regained its senses, it tried to reverse course back to the valley.
Han Sen kept slashing it. He cast Jadeskin and the Blood-Pulse Sutra, and he ran them both at maximum velocity. His body looked like jade, and his blood was boiling.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
After three swings, Han Sen felt as if his own blood was going to spill out. A weird, blood-like power entered his Ghost Teeth Knife and dyed it red.
"Mutant Blood Ascended to Viscount."
The announcement rang inside Han Sen's mind, and it brought him sheer delight. The Blood-Pulse Sutra had finally leveled up.
Katcha!
The now reddened Ghost Teeth Knife was covered in a Jadeskin godlight. It came down on the beast and sliced its paws off.
Han Sen felt very happy about this. The red blade he now wielded was flashing, and blood was being thrown about everywhere. Before the enemy could escape all the way into the mist, Han Sen was able to cut off its head.
"Red Mist Mink Xenogeneic Earl hunted; xenogeneic gene found. Xenogeneic beast soul obtained."
Han Sen was happy. He picked up the beast and cut it open. He found a red bone inside its body, which he knew was the prized xenogeneic gene.
"Help! I'm going to die." Wang Yuhang was on the ground, screaming. His butt had been sorely injured.
"No one told you to be that reckless." Xie Qing King kicked Wang Yuhang's bleeding butt, which prompted another scream.
"You guys have no heart. I did this for you lot!"
Xie Qing King looked at the man with disdain and said, "You had it coming."
"Little Silver, go heal him," Han Sen called to Little Silver.
"No… argh!" Before Wang Yuhang could finish, Little Silver fired two bolts of lightning at him—one from each eye. They struck Wang Yuhang's bum and had him squealing in even more pain.
Little Silver's Viscount class healing was very effective. Its only downside was that it dished out a lot of pain. Wang Yuhang's wounds were completely healed after a short amount of time.
"Little Uncle, try again. See if there are any more xenogeneics inside." Han Sen smiled at Wang Yuhang.
Wang Yuhang didn't want to, but he still shouted before the entrance of the valley. He wasn't taking his pants off this time, though.
After a while, there appeared to be nothing more. Xie Qing King decided to sketch some shadows and send them into the valley, though. They soon disappeared, but not because they were attacked.
"It looks like there are no more xenogeneics inside." Xie Qing King put his book away and approached the valley.
They all entered that place, and as suspected, they weren't attacked. The red mist was too strong, though, and they couldn't make out anything.
"The mist is too strong! I can't see anything. I won't be able to see any sort of treasure, assuming there is something here," Wang Yuhang said.
They couldn't find anything there, so eventually, they abandoned the valley.
"There has to be something. It's just that finding it will be annoying." Xie Qing King frowned.
Han Sen was going to say something, but suddenly, an aircraft came flying down towards Mirror Lake.
"It doesn't look like an aircraft that belongs to the Rebate. Who would seek to visit this place now, of all times?" Han Sen frowned and called for everyone to return.
There weren't many electronic tools that could be used on Planet Eclipse. If they wanted to get some intel, they'd have to go back to base.
Outside of Mirror Base, an aircraft came to park. When the door of the ship opened, it revealed a woman with white, monk-like robes. The woman was very beautiful, and she had a red dot on her forehead. She was a Buddha.

Chapter 1892 Guardian of the Door
Han Sen had seen many bald people, but very few women. And he definitely hadn't seen a bald woman that pretty before. Her delicate face, and the grace she exuded, made it easy to ignore the fact that she had no hair.
She was different from Budda King. This Buddha woman did not possess a scar, and she only had that red dot on her forehead.
Behind the Buddha woman, a Buddha man came forward. And then a few of the Rebate did, too.
"My Lady, Planet Eclipse is so poor. There is nothing to see here, and I can assure you that this is not a place you will enjoy visiting," a Rebate man said to the woman.
The Buddha Lady, called Speechless, smiled and said, "No Flower and I want to see Knife Queen's student. We are here for the sole purpose of visiting this planet."
No Flower Buddha quietly said, "The crystallizer that is called Han Sen; he brought out a King class knife from Knife Grave, did he not? And he managed to practice Teeth Knife techniques, yes? Are these claims true?"
Yes, but he is a mere Baron. Because he is so weak, Knife Queen has squandered a great many resources on him. He is not even a Viscount yet! I am afraid there is no point in you guys visiting," Sad Night said.
"That's okay. We are merely sating our curiosity. We just want to observe what sort of creature he is." Speechless smiled.
"This way, then." Sad Night led the way for them.
When they stood before the entrance of the base, Sad Night said to the guards, "Tell your master Han Sen that Sad Night, Black Cliff, Speechless Buddha Lady, and No Flower Buddha are here to visit."
After that, Sad Night performed a welcoming gesture to them. Then, he said, "This way."
After walking a few steps, a guard stopped him and said, "This is our base. You cannot enter here."
"Move." Sad Night looked at the guard coldly, then tried to force his way inside.
The guard did not say a word, and instead pulled out a giant cleaver. The guard swung it at Sad Night.
"How dare you attack me! You are a mere servant." Sad Night was enraged by this, and so he threw a slap towards the cleaver to eliminate the guard.
The Night family did not have much respect for Han Sen. In the Moon Festival, Han Sen had stolen the thunder away from the Night family. It made Sad Night very angry with him, and that was only fuel to the fire of his current rudeness.
Sad Night could tell that the guard was just a Baron, though. Sad Night was a Viscount, so killing the guard should have been an easy feat.
But when the cleaver was about to come into contact with his hand, the giant cleaver moved like a fish. It slid to the side of his wrist and cut it. It was a small cut, but it was enough to make Sad Night extremely angry. Being injured by a Baron was quite humiliating for him.
He was the son of Night River King, and he had been dealt a speck of damage by a weakling guard. This was just too embarrassing for him.
He started to glow with a godlight, preparing to use all his power to kill the guard.
Unfortunately for him, he had found the wrong person. A normal Baron might have been killed by three of his punches. But this guard was Lady Chef.
Lady Chef was just a Baron, but she had lived a very long life. Her fighting talents were like those of a grandmaster. The guy in front of her was nothing, by comparison.
A light shot out of Sad Night's palm, but Lady Chefs movements were like magic. He was unable to do anything to her.
Speechless and No Flower were shocked. For a Baron guard to fend off such an enemy with such ease was a big surprise.
"Amazing blade skills, for sure! It looks like she has something of a knifemind. It is rare for a Baron to possess something like that." No Flower thought this was very shocking.
Sad Night's face was swollen with rage. He was trying to kill a Baron, and he had yet to have any success. He looked useless in front of the Buddha.
"What are you guys up to?" A voice came from a short distance away.
Everyone turned around to see three men, one woman, and one creature approaching. Han Sen was amongst them.
Sad Night coldly spoke to Han Sen, "Han Sen, how much disobedience do you teach your slaves! They have stopped a few Kings and Buddha. What's more, they are fighting me! I will teach them how to behave properly, if you want."
Han Sen recognized him. They last met in the Moon God's Festival.
"Dragon Lady, what's all this about?" Han Sen walked over to Dragon Lady.
"They tried to force their way inside. I stopped them," Dragon Lady answered.
"Good job!" Han Sen patted her on the shoulder, then walked inside the base alongside Gu Qingcheng.
Sad Night was frozen, unsure of what to think about this. He shouted, "Han Sen, did you hear me! I brought Speechless Buddha Lady and No Flower Buddha to see you. Do you not possess any manners whatsoever?!"
Han Sen turned around, looked at him, and said, "This is Planet Eclipse, not the palace of Night River King. Who gave you permission to come down here? I should ask Night River King if this is how his family has been taught to behave."
"Go back. I'll give you half an hour to leave. And you are only given that out of respect to Night River King. If you guys are still here when the time is up, I'll punish you all with my special sort of discipline." When Han Sen finished speaking those cold words, he vanished into his base.
Everyone was so mad, and they didn't expect Han Sen to be so disrespectful.
"Sure. We only wanted to see the sort of rules you enforce. What do you think, Black Cliff?" Sad Night's face was green as he asked the black-eared man.
Black Cliff nodded, agreeing with what he said.
Sad Night was not stupid, though. Speechless and No Flower were with them, and the Rebate that had come along were all Nobles. Black Cliff was Black-Moon King's son. Han Sen couldn't do anything.
Sad Night knew there were no elites there, though. At the very most, they could only expect to find Viscounts inside. Black Cliff could get rid of everyone inside if he chose to.
Unfortunately, the law in Narrow Moon was strict. And Knife Queen made fights breaking out between the planets difficult.
If Han Sen struck first, it wouldn't be their fault. They couldn't kill Han Sen in return, but they could sure teach him a lesson.
"If Mister Han wall not welcome us, we should go back," Speechless Lady said. She looked quite surprised.
The student of Knife Queen was far more unique than she had expected. She was actually all the more curious about him now.
"Don't worry. Black Cliff and I will take care of this. We will wait here and keep an eye on what Han Sen is up to." Sad Night coldly laughed.
Hearing that, Speechless and No Flower looked at each other. They didn't say anything. They were curious about what Han Sen was planning to do, though.

Chapter 1893 Soloing All the Group Fights
Dragon Lady followed Han Sen into the base. Wang Yuhang and Xie Qing King then took up positions on opposite sides of the gate. They were like two soldiers, just smiling at the intruders.
"Brother King, what is your least favorite meal?" Wang Yuhang, standing at the side of the gate, suddenly decided to ask.
"Hmm, I am not sure. I like pretty much everything I am able to eat. I even like all desserts, such as stinky tofu," Xie Qing King said.
"Brother King, you really do like to eat everything! But you know what? I know of something that you would not like to eat," Wang Yuhang said with sincerity.
"What?" Xie Qing King rose to the question.
"A closed gate. Would you like to eat that?" Wang Yuhang asked, laughing to himself.
"I don't want to eat that. I don't think anyone would like to." Xie Qing King smiled.
"Maybe. Maybe not. Some people might love to eat that. And they certainly enjoy it. They can't get enough of it!" Wang Yuhang smiled, and he looked right at Sad Night.
"What a rude slave." Sad Night was angered by the jest. He drew his sword and sent a scary swordlight soaring towards Wang Yuhang's neck.
He could not kill Han Sen, but he did not care about disposing of his slaves.
Dong!
A silver shadow blocked Sad Night's swordlight. It was a leopard, composed of silver light, from the looks of it.
Sad Night was not quite sure what it was, but he wasn't afraid. He swung his sword like lightning to do battle with the leopard.
Sad Night's sword skills were wonderful. It was to be expected; after all, he was the son of a King. His fighting techniques were top-dog.
After a dozen strikes, the silver leopard was slain. The creature vanished into thin air.
"If you keep talking crap, you'll end up just like that!" Sad Night said, staring right at Wang Yuhang.
"If you like to kill so much, would you like to do a few more?" Xie Qing King moved his fingers to scribble out a few more of those silver leopards. They quickly surrounded Sad Night.
It hadn't been difficult for Sad Night to take out the silver leopard, but there were so many of them now. They were all Viscounts, and they worked together smoothly to establish a proper formation. It'd be hard, that was for sure.
Speechless and No Flower were shocked by this. The ability to draw beasts was very rare.
Sad Night killed one silver leopard, then found that Xie Qing King had already drawn another to replace it. He kept spawning more and more, as soon as each one died. The numbers didn't reduce, and the fight looked as if it could go on forever. The leopards were able to get a few hits in every now and again, too. Although none of the wounds were grievous, it sullied his image.
"Come and help!" Seeing Black Cliff and the others merely waiting and watching, Sad Night suddenly felt fear. He couldn't keep fighting these leopards by himself.
Just as the Rebate looked ready to strike, Xie Qing King closed the book and the leopards disappeared. He coldly said, "Just as I thought; a run-of-the-mill King's child. Just a bully."
"You!" Sad Night was so angry, but knew he could not compete. When he was flying solo, he hadn't been able to take out the leopards. If he was unable to take out the leopards, he'd be unable to take on Xie Qing King.
The Rebate were curious about all this, though. They wondered where Han Sen might have found such a man. In a solo fight, Sad Night would not be able to beat him.
The drawing abilities were rare, too. They had never seen it before.
"You are a bully, too! If you have the guts to do it, fight him mano-a-mano! I guarantee you cannot fight Sad Night solo," one of the Rebate Barons shouted to Xie Qing King, referring to the fact that there were so many shadow leopards.
"You sure you want to engage me in a solo fight?" Xie Qing King looked at Sad Night with a smile. He didn't even spare the Baron a glance.
"So what, yeah? But do you dare to come at me?" Sad Night knew it sounded ridiculous as soon as he said it. He was not too happy about this situation.
"Are you sure? Don't go crying to daddy when you get beaten up." Xie Qing King smiled at him.
"I'm afraid you won't even be able to cry," Sad Night said coldly.
"Then come on! It's been a long time since I last had the chance to throw my weight around. The creatures here are so strong, so it's hard to find someone weak enough to enjoy bullying. Now the opportunity to do just that has come." Xie Qing King put his book away, and then the silver book became a set of armor to plate him. Then, he stretched his limbs.
Sad Night knew Xie Qing King was mocking him. He looked murderous, and his sword was like the wind as it came to take a bite out of Xie Qing King.
He had a terrible thirst for bloodshed right now. He might not have been able to kill Han Sen, but he could most certainly kill a family member. Even though it would cause him trouble, this was something Night King River could sort out.
As the swordlight flashed toward him, Xie Qing King was still stretching his wrists and rolling his neck.
Pang!
Just as the swordlight was going to strike his nose, Xie Qing King threw a punch. The silver light broke the swordlight.
Xie Qing King's strong body began to gleam with silver light. He was like a demon, and he began throwing punches towards Sad Night.
"Alu-Alu-Alu!"
A raging bevy of fists was coming at Sad Night like a furious storm. Sad Night knew he wouldn't be able to fight back, so he blocked it with a sword. He was like a boat in the middle of the rain.
The fists kept striking the sword, shaking it.
A katcha noise sounded. The sword shattered to pieces under the pressure of Xie Qing King's repeated attacks. The punches eventually landed on Sad Night.
"Argh!" Sad Night was sent soaring through the air with a body that had been totally twisted by the punches. His armor had shattered, even. His gear had been completely destroyed.
Everyone was shocked, and no one had expected that would be the end result. The son of a King had been beaten by a guardsman. He couldn't resist the flurry of attacks, and he was broken and sent flying.
They found out that Xie Qing King was actually scarier when he put the book away.
A few of the Rebate were shocked. They wished to save Sad Night, and only Black Cliff did not move.
"It looks like you guys love to fight in groups." Xie Qing King was wearing an evil smile. His silver armor returned to the shape of a book. So, he drew something inside and brought a new shadow to life.
But this time, it wasn't a leopard that came out. It was Xie Qing King himself.
"Alu-Alu-Alu!" The shadows of Xie Qing King all began punching the Rebate.

Chapter 1894 Black Cliff
Not much later, the Rebate Noble heirs were beaten. Their armors had been broken, and their faces were all swollen. They fell to the ground, crying their eyes out.
Speechless, No Flower, and Black Cliff were all in shock. It was unheard of, for a nameless Viscount to beat down so many Nobles. Xie Qing King seemed terribly overpowered.
And he was nothing more than a guard in Han Sen's roster. It was a scary thought.
"It looks like solo, or even in group fights, you guys are all weak. None of you can fight," Xie Qing King said simply, and then returned to the entrance.
He returned to standing at his station like a proper guardsman, and he paid them no further attention.
Sad Night picked himself up off the ground. His face was completely swollen, stained with blood and dirt. His eyes were bloodshot. He wanted to go and hide.
He wouldn't mind losing to Han Sen, but he and the other Rebate had been beaten by an insignificant Viscount. This wasn't just embarrassing to them; this was an embarrassment to their elders. Everyone would be laughing if news of these events ever spread.
The worst thing about it, though, was that Speechless and No Flower had seen it all.
"Black Cliff, what do you think?" Sad Night looked at Black Cliff. Sad Night was not going to continue fighting, as that would just lead to greater embarrassment. But Black Cliff was different. He was the oldest son of Black-Moon King, and he was a Duke. If he struck, it was unlikely anyone near Mirror Lake could withstand the blow.
"I am only here to see Han Sen's Knife Blank. The rest of this is none of my business," Black Cliff said with disinterest.
Sad Night's face went red. He looked at Black Cliff, then left. He was way too embarrassed to stay now. A few more of the Nobles drifted away, and then the rest got up and said goodbye to Speechless and No Flower.
Speechless and No Flower didn't want to leave yet. They were happy to wait outside with Black Cliff.
After half an hour, Han Sen exited the base.
Han Sen looked at Black Cliff and the Buddhas. With a frown, he said, "Why are you still here?"
"I am Black Cliff, from Planet Black-Moon. I have heard you are in possession of a mystic Knife Blank. I would like to borrow it. The conditions are yours to decide," Black Cliff said, looking at Han Sen.
"Are you related to Black Steel?" Han Sen asked.
"Black Steel is my fourth brother," Black Cliff answered.
"If you are a sibling of Black Steel, please come inside." Han Sen welcomed him inside.
Black Cliff was willing to comply, and he let one of the Kate lead him forward.
"What do you two need?" Han Sen looked at Speechless and No Flower.
"Amitabha. I am No Flower of the Buddha. This is Speechless Buddha Lady. I have heard Knife Queen accepted a genius for a student, and so we have eagerly looked forward to meeting him." No Flower bowed.
"Well, you guys have met him. You can go now." Han Sen turned around and walked back into the base.
"Hang on…" Pang! Before No Flower could speak, Han Sen had closed the gate.
Speechless and No Flower had seen a lot in their time. They had seen many people express all sorts of different tempers, but Han Sen was unique amongst all they had seen.
"The student of Knife Queen is special." No Flower had a wry smile.
"Never mind. If he doesn't want to see us, then we'd best depart." Speechless looked strange as she made the decision. "That is the only way, I suppose." No Flower nodded.
They left the base and flew off in the aircraft. Speechless was thinking to herself, "Knife Queen wouldn't just accept any student. We haven't yet found out why she selected him, but seeing how strong his followers are, it might suggest he is hiding something. I need to force him to talk to me sometime."
After Han Sen went back into the base, he went to the meeting room to discuss things with Black Cliff.
"Why do you want to see my Knife Blank?" Han Sen asked.
The Knife Blank was not an ordinary item. If Black Cliff hadn't been Black Steel's brother, Han Sen wouldn't have let him in, regardless of his rank. He certainly wouldn't let him see the Knife Blank.
Black Cliff said, "The Black family forges weaponry, and I am quite skilled at the process. I have been doing this for fifty years, but even now, I have yet to be able to forge a King class knife. And that's all because I've never been able to get my hands on decent materials. Only fine materials can make what I seek to create. I have heard the Knife Blank you found inside Knife Grave is a good item. So, I was hoping I might borrow it. And if not, I hoped I could make an offer to purchase it outright."
"I wasn't planning on selling it. And you do know that because it came from Knife Grave, it cannot actually be forged?" Han Sen said.
"The weaponry from Knife Grave can be forged; you just have to know how. It's okay if you do not wish to sell the material, but if it does work, I can forge it into something of your choosing, all for free. I'd even be willing to pay. You will still keep ownership of the knife, too." Black Cliff looked excited.
Han Sen thought that was a worthy bargain. The Knife Blank was only a Knife Blank. He couldn't utilize its powers, so it would be great if it could be forged.
It'd be free, and it'd also come from the best blacksmith of the Rebate. That was a very good deal.
Han Sen did not need to worry about Black Cliff destroying the weapon. This was Narrow Moon, and he wouldn't do something like that unless he was genuinely crazy.
And Black Cliff did not look like a crazy man, so Han Sen was not worried.
"Okay, please wait here." Han Sen asked someone to bring the Knife Blank. But just as he was about to hand it over, he felt that something was wrong.
When Black Cliff saw the Knife Blank, he froze. It looked as if his eyes were on fire. The fire did not really exist, but Han Sen could see it. It looked very familiar.
"King Jun." Han Sen immediately recalled where he had seen this before.
The gold sunbird that Han Sen had killed, and the being called King Jun that named himself Skygod, and the fire he used… What Han Sen saw in Black Cliff's eyes reminded him of all that.
Han Sen was going to hand the Knife Blank over, but right before he did, he pulled it back.
"Knife Blank. Knife Blank." Black Cliff was acting as if he had been possessed. He mumbled over and over, as he tried to grab the Knife Blank from Han Sen.
"F*ck! King Jun is behind this!" Han Sen immediately reacted. Unless Black Cliff was stupid or just plain mad, he wouldn't have come here to try to steal the Knife Blank. Even if he stole it and killed Han Sen in the process, he couldn't have owned it.
But that seemed to be exactly what Black Cliff was doing. The man's mind seemed to be scrambled. And it reminded Han Sen of King Jun Skygod.

Chapter 1895 Red Mist Spring
Han Sen quickly fell back as Black Cliff roared. His body was on fire, and he leaped towards Han Sen like a beast. He was shouting, "Knife Blank! My Knife Blank!"
In that precise moment, the meeting room was blown up by the power unleashed by Black Cliff. His Duke powers were scary to witness.
Many people heard the commotion and came rushing toward them. Han Sen shouted, "Please stay away! Run, as far as you are able to!"
Han Sen held onto the Knife Blank and also ran. The rabbit shoes were on his feet, and he headed out of the base.
Black Cliff was like a hungry beast as he ravenously pursued Han Sen. He summoned a big black hammer and swung it forward. The fire was like a living thing as it tore a big hole in the ground. The nearby houses were being smashed to pieces.
Luckily, the rabbit shoes made Han Sen just as fast as Black Cliff. Han Sen made it out of the base, but he hadn't gained enough of a lead to lose Black Cliff.
Black Cliff ran like a lunatic. He kept trying to smack Han Sen with the hammer. He wanted to smash Han Sen into nothing but bits and take the Knife Blank for himself.
"King Jun, that *sshole! He is so obscene." Han Sen knew that Black Cliff was not himself. The fire in his eyes was growing brighter, and he attacked without holding back.
It was fortunate Han Sen had the rabbit shoes; otherwise, he'd be mush right now.
"Zero, contact Queen!" Han Sen shouted as he kept running. He was running towards the mountains, leading Black Cliff away from the base so he wouldn't inadvertently destroy it.
Han Sen couldn't lose him, but he used his Dongxuan Movements to dodge each attack. He kept evading as he led the raging Rebate towards the Red Mist Valley.
Han Sen could not fight Black Cliff. He needed Yisha to help, but god only knew how long it would take her to get here. So, he needed to find a way to buy himself some time. It'd be bad to suffer even a single strike.
A random Duke class hit could be enough to break him to pieces.
Han Sen guided Black Cliff towards the red mist, and in the meantime, Zero got in touch with Yisha. Yisha had the time to see her message.
"What? This has really happened? Black Cliff did this?" After Yisha heard Zero explain the matters at hand, she frowned.
She could not believe he was willing to do such a thing.
But it was Han Sen's subordinate that had contacted her, and she knew Zero wouldn't lie. Yisha went quiet and quickly left for Planet Eclipse. She was soon at the base.
"Where are Black Cliff and Han Sen?" Yisha asked with a frown.
"Master was getting chased. He was leading the enemy off that way!" Zero pointed to Red Mist Valley.
Yisha did not delay. Like an act of teleportation, she instantly disappeared.
Yisha was in a major rush right now. If what Zero had told her was true, then there was a Duke chasing after Han Sen. It was difficult to gauge how long Han Sen might last in such a pursuit. He could have been whacked into jelly by now, already.
Yisha scanned the valley ahead, and what she saw shocked her.
Han Sen was sitting on a rock outside the valley, singing.
"Where is Black Cliff?" Yisha asked as she ran up to Han Sen.
"In that valley," Han Sen said, as he pointed down into it.
Han Sen had drawn Black Cliff into the valley, and his pursuer had gotten lost in there. Han Sen was able to get back out and wait for Yisha's arrival. Black Cliff was still down there.
Yisha looked into the valley with much confusion. Her face changed and she said, "A Red Mist Spring?"
"Do you know what it is?" Han Sen asked Yisha.
Yisha looked at the red mist plaguing the valley and said, "It is a Red Mist Spring. I don't know if it is good for you or bad for you, though."
"What is a Red Mist Spring?" Han Sen felt a chill hearing this, but he asked her for more info.
They had been in the valley searching for quite some time, last time they were there. There didn't seem to be anything useful inside. They couldn't find what was causing the mist, either. Even if there was a treasure, it seemed unlikely they could find it.
Now hearing Yisha say this, it sounded as if it might not have been treasure that was inside there. It might have actually been something harmful.
Just as Yisha was about to answer, Black Cliff came out of the clouds with a big hammer. After seeing Han Sen, he roared and swung towards him.
Yisha frowned. She could tell something was wrong with him, and she knew he wouldn't behave like that in front of her.
She waved her hand and a purple mist came out. It cracked Black Cliff's big hammer in an instant.
Black Cliff coughed up some blood. The hammer was his geno armament, and as soon as Yisha broke it, harm was delivered to his body. But even so, he still wanted to go after Han Sen and Han Sen alone. He was acting like a man possessed.
Yisha then hit Black Cliff himself with the purple mist. She didn't want to kill him, though. All she wanted to do was knock him out.
"We cannot let others learn about this spring. I will discuss this with you when I return." Yisha told Han Sen that, then picked up the unconscious Black Cliff. After that, she warped away.
Han Sen went back to the base. After what happened with Black Cliff, he knew he'd have to be more careful. King Jun was able to use Black Cliff to come after him, so it was clear he could assume the form of other people to get to Han Sen.
"Having an association with a god is a bad thing, indeed. They are so powerful, but they won't kill directly. Why is that? Maybe if I find out why, I can kill King Jun." Han Sen retreated into thought.
When it was nighttime, Han Sen sought rest. When he turned around, he saw Yisha standing right there. She had been behind him, and her sudden presence there scared him.
"Queen, when did you get here?" Han Sen blinked.
Yisha smiled and said, "I just wanted to take a look at you. I almost don't recognize you."
"Why? Why would you not recognize your student?" Han Sen smiled.
"Under the threat of Black Cliffs pursuit, you managed to run so far and so fast without sustaining any damage. I don't even think a Marquise could do such a thing." Yisha squinted her eyes as she spoke.
"You know, I have shoes that can give me speed. I'm weak in other talents, so I guess I'm just good when it comes to being speedy. These take me up to around Duke class, I think." Han Sen said that, and then used his rabbit shoes to walk three meters.
That is a good item. It gives Barons the speed of a Duke. That is very rare. It is better than your holy item, even." Yisha looked at the rabbit shoes as she spoke.
Han Sen felt strange, all of a sudden. He was afraid Yisha might want to try them on. They were a beast soul, and Yisha couldn't use them because she was not from the sanctuaries.
Fortunately, she was not interested in the rabbit shoes. She thought of something else and said, "Do you know what the Red Mist Spring is?"

Chapter 1896 The Possibility of Leveling Up
"I don't know," Han Sen said quietly.
Yisha sighed and said, "I don't know if the Red Mist Spring is a good thing or a bad thing, but for you, it might be an opportunity. It's possible that this spring could make your Spell geno armament level up. It could become a Viscount."
"That means the Red Mist Spring can level things up?" Han Sen was happy to hear this.
His Spell geno armament had been difficult to develop. It required an external sort of power for that to occur. If he tried to level it through solo practice, it'd be a slow process. It'd probably take him a hundred years to get it up to Viscount class through training alone.
That wasn't about Han Sen performing poorly, though. It was because The Story of Genes was not for humans. It was extremely unlikely that Han Sen had been able to practice it in the first place.
"It'd be better if it was simply a treasure," Yisha sighed and said. "There is only one way to generate a Red Mist Spring. It has only been created because many creatures have died in this area and remained buried here for billions of years. Changes have occurred beneath the ground, which resulted in the generation of this new substance. The red mist is a sign that the substance has finished formulating, and that it is now available."
Han Sen waited for a bit, hoping she'd continue speaking.
"This is a substance that comes from the corpses of xenogeneics. Nobles have no use for it, but it is great for ordinary types. Average creatures who touch it can become xenogeneic. If a xenogeneic ate this substance, they'd evolve quickly." Yisha went on to say, "But your geno armament is special, and I think there is a way in which Spell can absorb it. We can speed up your growth by doing this. If there is enough of the substance, we can level her up to Viscount."
"What do I do?" Han Sen asked. It was too difficult to level up Spell, and if there was a chance to cut comers here, he didn't want to let it escape him.
"I have a geno art I believe you should practice. When the Red Mist Spring comes out, you use that skill and transfer the power obtained into Spell. If you do that, she will level up. But this geno art is very difficult to learn, and transferring the spring's power will be painful. It's entirely up to you if this is what you want," Yisha said. She would provide him as much information as she could, but the decision was ultimately up to him.
"Thanks, Queen." Han Sen accepted the papers she offered him and looked over the geno art that was called Yin Yang Change.
"Don't forget to go to the event I told you about," Yisha told Han Sen before she left.
Han Sen confirmed he'd go, despite his total lack of enthusiasm in it. He began practicing Yin Yang Change right away, though.
Han Sen gave it a read-through, and he was immediately taken by surprise. Yin Yang Change was just like Yin Yang Blast. It had simply been developed in a different direction.
Yin Yang Blast's focus was on exchanging power that came against it, in which a power's direction would be reversed. Yin Yang Change was based on making a power stronger.
With Yin Yang Blast as a base, he could easily learn how to take advantage of Yin Yang Change. He would only need a bit of practice before using it.
He didn't know how Yisha had dealt with Black Cliff. She didn't mention anything about the man, so he didn't ask.
But Yisha hadn't killed Black Cliff, he knew that. He thought she might have simply sent him back to Black-Moon King.
Yisha thought the Red Mist Spring would make itself apparent in around forty days. So, Han Sen had plenty of time to practice.
Wang Yuhang went to Han Sen's room, smiling. "Han Sen, there is a Rebate woman looking for you."
"Rebate woman? I don't know any Rebate women." Han Sen frowned.
"Still pretending? She says you are her teacher, and you two used to be close. You even taught her knife skills." Wang Yuhang was still smiling.
"No, I never taught any Rebate women. There is a Rebate woman that teaches me, however." Han Sen was depressed, unable to think who he might have been talking about.
"What Rebate woman has been… teaching you?" Wang Yuhang looked at him with a disgustingly creepy face.
"Knife Queen. Who else?" Han Sen said, then left. He didn't know who Wang Yuhang was talking about, so he went to take a look.
He went to a meeting room, and there he found a fifteen-year-old Rebate woman. She had white rabbit ears and a face that was quite chubby. She had big eyes, and she was really cute. Seeing her there, it was tempting to reach out and squeeze her cheeks.
Looking at the Rebate girl made Han Sen think of Wang Mengmeng. They were not of the same race, but they sure looked similar.
"I don't believe I know you," Han Sen said, while looking at the lady.
"Master, please allow me to follow and obey you." The girl immediately kneeled in front of Han Sen and bowed via the Rebate's typical gesture.
"What is this? Who are you?" Han Sen looked at the lady.
"My name is Qing Li. I am Flower King's daughter. I really admire Knife Queen, and I wanted to become her student. She, however, did not accept me. So, I will have to ask you to become my teacher, in her stead. That way, I can sort of be Queen's student!" Qing Li looked rather smug.
"I haven't made plans to accept any students," Han Sen said. He was so busy these days that he really didn't have the time to accept students.
Qing Li was Flower King's daughter. Flower King was at the same level as Yisha. If Qing Li became Han Sen's student, it would suggest that Flower King was of lower stature than Yisha. If Han Sen actually accepted her, it was highly unlikely that Flower King would agree to it.
"It is too late. I am already following you. From now on, you are my teacher. Queen will become my elder teacher." Qing Li looked quite excited.
"You are Qing Li, right?" Han Sen was not mad, and he actually smiled at her.
"Yes. And you are my teacher, right? You can call me Little Li." Qing Li sounded rather sweet.
"Qing Li, I'm not refusing to be your teacher, but if you want to be my student, you are going to have to pass my tests first. Forcing me to become your teacher is useless," Han Sen said.
"What kind of tests do you want me to perform?" Qing Li asked.
"Why do you want to follow Queen so much?" Han Sen asked.
"It is because Queen is great and her knife skills are the best. She practices the strongest Teeth Knife of the Rebate. I really want to be like her, so that is why I want to obey her," Qing Li said in explanation.
"So, you simply want to learn Teeth Knife?" Han Sen smiled.
"I guess. But I want to learn it straight from Queen. I don't care if others teach me," Qing Li said seriously.
"How about we do a test, and see if you possess the adequate talent to learn it? If you do, I can accept you as my student. Then, you will become Queen's student's student," Han Sen said.
"Really? Then test me! How do we do the test?" Qing Li sounded excited.
"I will write a few words for you, and then you can go practice them. If you can write them down exactly the same, I will take you as my student." Han Sen said that, and then brought out a wooden board. He used his fingers to write down a few words, and then gave her the board.

Chapter 1897 The Sky Mind Like Knife
"Sky Mind like knife. What does that mean?" Qing Li held the wood board and wrote down the four words. She looked at Han Sen with a modicum of confusion. She knew the four words, but she did not understand the meaning of their combination.
"Go home and look it over. When you understand it, you can write it. And when you can write it, I will take you as a student." Han Sen smiled.
"As long as I am able to write out those four words, you can accept me as a student? That simply?" Qing Li did not believe Han Sen. Copying out four words to pass a test was far too easy.
"Yes, it is that simple. Now, go and practice. But I have a rule for you to follow, and that is, you cannot ask for the aid of others. You have to write this out by yourself. If you get help to do this, then you forfeit." Han Sen smiled.
Those four words were simple, but copying them was not easy.
The words Han Sen wrote contained the Teeth Knife knifemind. The words could be copied, yes, but the feelings they elicited could not.
He gave Qing Li this task because he wanted her to give up in her pursuit. That being said, if she did understand the meaning behind the text and could copy it as she had been instructed, then she'd be something of a genius. No one would mind taking on such a student, if that was the case.
"Okay, you said that. No regrets now." Qing Li was too young, and Han Sen thought she was too naive. She didn't understand the real task that she had been given.
"I won't have any." Han Sen smiled.
Qing Li left for home quite merrily with the wooden board. She planned to write down four beautiful words for Han Sen, so he'd have no choice but to accept her as a student.
When she was back home, she could not wait to start practicing.
Rebate generally took their education seriously, but Qing Li was an exception to that rule. She studied, but she didn't focus on it too much. She'd finish any homework she was given, but she wouldn't go the extra mile with practice.
It was fortunate that Flower King was good at teaching and that he had forced her to practice some writing.
Qing Li's writing was not the best, but it wasn't too bad, either. If this was just writing, Qing Li had a chance.
But when Qing Li started to write out the words Han Sen had given to her, she felt rather strange. And that was because she was unable to write them out like he had. When she started, she thought they looked similar, but the further she went, the more she realized they drifted apart.
"Weird! Why is this happening?" Qing Li held up the wooden boards to investigate. It was then that she realized the words were changing.
They weren't exactly changing, though. It was because the markings on the board were getting deeper, and the words elicited the feeling of them changing. It was as if the text could move.
"Teeth powers." Qing Li immediately realized that the words Han Sen had written out contained the power of Teeth. Teeth powers were breaking the wood; that was what was happening.
But no matter what, this would not scare Qing Li away. It actually flared her curiosity and her urge to go on. She swore to her god that she'd write it all out, if it was the last thing she did.
This time, Qing Li tried her hardest. She kept trying to write down Han Sen's words and practicing the knife skills at the same time.
As the daughter of Flower King, many teachers would be willing to teach her if she was willing to learn writing and knife skills. Plus, Flower King had a wide collection of writing techniques, and she was a naturally smart woman. So, it should not have been too difficult.
It was hard to learn writing in such a short time. But the added pressure made her focus more. The more she watched Han Sen's words, the more fascinating she found them.
It wasn't because of how well they were written, though. It was because the knifemind was so strong.
As Qing Li looked into the writings and the knife skills, she realized that the four words were really unpredictable. The more she wrote, the less she found herself following. She was starting to think she couldn't practice it at all.
Pat!
After ten days, the wooden board cracked. The knifemind and the Teeth powers broke the boards. And then, the four words disappeared.
Qing Li was shocked. She understood that this was the time limit given to her by Han Sen. She felt depressed. She had failed to copy them down, and on top of that, they were now broken. She had failed the test.
"Qing Li, why have you been hiding yourself away at home for so many days? The event is going to start!" A woman's voice sounded from the outside, and then she pushed the door open.
The person who entered was a Rebate woman the same age as Qing Li. Her name was Du Lishe. She was Moon Wheel King's daughter, and they were members of Moon Garden. They were also best friends.
Qing Li was an outgoing person. But she had been hiding away at home for ten days, and she hadn't gone looking for her friends once. Du Lishe was curious about what was going on, and so, she came looking for her friend.
"The Buddha is already here. Why don't you come take a look? Why are you hiding at home?" Du Lishe asked.
"Ah, you are practicing writing? Did Uncle Flower force you to?" Du Lishe saw writing all around the place. She picked up one and went on to say, "The words aren't bad. You have definitely improved."
"Father did not force me. I wanted to practice this myself!" Qing Li shook her head.
"That is strange! You are practicing writing out of choice. That's not your style at all. What made you take this up?" Du Lishe looked at Qing Li with surprise.
Qing Li looked depressed and said, "You know I admire the queen? Well, I want to be her student. But she said that I am not qualified enough to learn Teeth Knife, and so she did not accept me as a student."
"I know. But that was a long time ago. Is this still on your mind?" Du Lishe said.
Qing Li shook her head. "Queen is my idol, and that'll never change. So, I thought that if I could not have her as a teacher, I would become the student of her student. Then, that would make me her student's student. It can't be all that different, can it?"
The daughter of Flower King is becoming Han Sen's student? Even if you wanted to obey him, I doubt he'd take you."
Du Lishe smiled.
"He didn't reject me. He wanted me to write down four words. If I do them successfully, he'll take me as a student," Qing Li said.
"So, you've been practicing how to write this the entire time?" Du Lishe saw that all she had written were sky mind like knife.
"Yeah, I have been practicing for so long, and yet I still fail!" Qing Li felt depressed.
"How can it be so difficult? Let me see." Du Lishe was curious about this.
Qing Li shook her head. "The text is gone."

Chapter 1898 Exchange Even
"Gone? How can they be gone?" Du Lishe asked curiously.
Qing Li explained it, and then let her take a look at the broken wood chips.
After Du Lishe heard what she was told, she had a look of disbelief. "Really? How long has Han Sen been practicing Teeth Knife? You say he has a Teeth Knife knifemind and can use it to such a high level? I can't help but find that hard to believe."
"I wouldn't have believed it, either, if I hadn't seen it with my own two eyes. But I really did watch him write it down upon the boards. And then, I saw the wooden board get broken apart by the words he had scrawled. You have to believe me. Han Sen really is so strong! It's no wonder the queen picked him as a student. I am far inferior," Qing Li said.
"Don't think too much about it all just yet. The event is going to start soon, so let's head over to the meeting." Du Lishe hadn't seen the text herself, so she didn't think it was that incredible. She put it out of her mind and dragged Qing Li with her to the event.
The exchange event was hosted by one of the two races, and they alternated each time. This time it was the Rebate's turn to host. The Buddha Clear Sea King brought around twenty of his Buddhas here. Before the event started, they met with the Nobles of the Rebate. That way, the two groups would be familiar with each other during the event.
Amongst all those Buddhas, there was one called Sun. He had the highest rank out of them all. He was a Marquise class fellow.
If this was down to raw talent, Speechless and No Flower were the absolute strongest. Buddhas had a special ability; when Buddhas became old, they could transfer their knowledge and experience to the younger ones.
They called that ability, Open the Mind. The Buddhas that used it would die a short time after, and the Buddhas that were on the receiving end would only be able to absorb as much knowledge as their prowess allowed them to.
No Flower and Speechless had their minds opened. They had been very talented when they received their knowledge, so they were able to absorb a lot. They learned far more than the average Buddha did.
Speechless was the best, though. The elder that opened their mind for her was a half-deified Buddha. Speechless was extremely talented, and people expected her to be the first fully-fledged deified Buddha in the last thirty thousand years.
But Open the Mind was classified, and most people did not know anything about this process. Even those who knew about the ability couldn't tell who had received a predecessor's knowledge.
Qing Li and Du Lishe went to the meeting and met up with friends there.
Someone introduced a Buddha to Qing Li. The Buddhas and the Rebate were allies, so there was a good atmosphere and relationship between them. But there was a competitive side to their cordialities, and they were fond of finding out who was stronger in various categories.
This was an exchange event, but right now, it was more like a competitive display of skills than a swap-meet.
Han Sen was not at all interested in events such as this, but Yisha had repeatedly asked Han Sen to attend. So, he had no real choice but to come.
Wang Yuhang and Xie Qing King were fond party-goers, and Gu Qingcheng was interested in learning about the Buddhas. So, they all decided to follow Han Sen.
The four of them found a corner to sit down in, and there, they could watch the show and enjoy the food of the Rebate. Because Han Sen was not a member of the Moon Garden, he could only sit outside to spectate. He could not enter or interact with the Buddhas.
While this meant nothing to Han Sen, Speechless kept looking for him. When the meeting began, she had yet to see Han Sen around. She felt confused about his absence.
Speechless thought Han Sen was the student of Knife Queen, and because of that, he would have been allowed to participate in the event. But Speechless looked around for him for a long time, with no hide nor hair of him to be found. She didn't ask about him, though. She'd feel weird to ask.
"Isn't Han Sen Queen's student? Why are you watching the event from the outside, like us?" As Han Sen and his companions were munching away, he heard someone speak with a rather mocking tone of voice.
Han Sen looked over and saw a few xenogeneics. They were not old, and neither were they Rebate. The person who spoke was someone with the head of a cow.
While they were some sort of bovine race, but they looked different from the Kao. Han Sen did not know which race they belonged to, but he had seen this cow-headed person before.
In the Moon God Festival, the cow-headed man was with Gold Jade King's son Gao Ji. He was one of the very few Earls there.
Han Sen looked at them but did not say a word. They were outsiders, and they were simply leaning on the Rebate.
"I thought Queen would give her student special treatment. But he's just like us, an outsider, not allowed to be a member of the Moon Garden. He can't participate in the event, and he can only sit out here and watch."
"So what? Even if he could join, what could he hope to exchange?"
"Maybe he can exchange a little luck, you know?"
The young man with the head of the cow and his fellows were talking so loud, it was obvious they wanted Han Sen to hear them.
Han Sen frowned, though. He wasn't sure what they meant. They were outsiders there, as well. They should have felt the same way about things as Han Sen himself did. He did not know why they'd bother picking on him, wanting to start trouble.
So, Han Sen ignored them and pretended he did not hear them. He continued talking with Gu Qingcheng and the others.
The cow-headed man thought it was pointless to continue talking, after noticing that Han Sen wasn't paying them any mind.
After a while, Clear Sea King and Moon Wheel King arrived. They announced the start of the event.
"The guests have come from far and wide, so let them take the stage first." Moon Wheel King smiled.
"Amitabha! Let us hope we don't embarrass ourselves." Clear Sea King looked at No Flower, and then he went on to say, "No Flower, you go first. Share your experience with your friends."
"Yes, my king." No Flower stood up and bowed before Clear Sea King and Moon Wheel King. He walked on stage and spoke to the worker, saying, "Please help me prepare a testing gold rock."
A testing gold rock was a rock for testing one's power. While the rock could be dented, it was very durable, almost unbreakable. It was usually used for the testing of geno arts.
They have No Flower coming on stage. It looks like they are ready to show off," Du Lishe said with a smile.

Chapter 1899 Touching Flower Finger
The worker brought a testing gold rock on stage. Everyone looked at No Flower, wondering what geno art he was going to perform.
Although No Flower was bald, he looked poised and elegant. He bowed before them, and to the surprise of all the Nobles who were present, he said, "I am going to perform a geno art called Touching Flower Finger."
Touching Flower Finger was famous because it was very common amongst the Buddha. It was something each one of them could perform.
This event had been created to show off new stuff. No Flower was going to perform something extremely common, and that was surprisingly disappointing to the attendance.
"No Flower Buddha, Touching Flower Finger is very powerful. But we have seen it many times before. There is no need to display this, is there?" someone said from below the stage, which prompted a number of agreements.
No Flower smiled. He was not in a rush, and he said, "The point of this event is to demonstrate new things, yes. I am stupid and cannot create new skills. So, I had a little idea to modify Touching Flower Finger somewhat If this can make you smile, that'll be enough for me."
Seeing No Flower say this, folks became curious. Someone shouted, "Then perform your Touching Flower Finger and let us see the difference!"
"Amitabha!" No Flower spoke out the Buddha phrase and walked in front of the testing gold rock. No one saw him do anything. They merely saw him raise his hand and press his thumb up against it.
The people inside and outside craned their necks and leaned forward to see No Flower's Touching Flower Finger.
But No Flower only pressed his thumb into the rock by a single inch. Even an ordinary Baron could do something like that.
Amidst their confusion, the audience suddenly noticed that fingermarks were spreading all across the rock. A word was being painted onto it.
It was then that the people realized that No Flower wanted to show something more than mere destruction. He was showing off that he could write with that skill.
Still, they did not quite underst抓d why. It did not matter how well you wrote; what did that have to do wit showcase of power? Even Barons could break the rock. You did not need tricks for that.
No Flower kept on writing, and then his entire body changed. His body surged with strength, like a King standing firm against crazy winds.
When he waved his finger, it felt as if flowers were falling. Or as if dead leaves were falling.
"The flowers open and destroy it." No Flower was writing these words out. Touching Flower Finger was supposed to be a gentle geno art, but as he used it, it felt as if people were amidst a rain of flowers. It made you feel so lonely and depressed. It was different from what the ordinary Touching Flower Finger would make you see.
Some young men with weak wills became very pale. They felt as if they had become old men, or dying flowers on the verge of giving up the ghost.
Even the members of Moon Garden looked bad.
"That is a strong mind. He is so young. How can he create such a thing!" Du Lishe looked ill as she spoke.
Black Steel said coldly, "The Buddhas can open their minds. No Flower must have received this from a King. If I guess correctly, this should be the device of Wilted Buddha King."
Moon Wheel King's eldest daughter, Rebecca, said, "Not bad. Wilted Buddha King died two years ago. No Flower must have opened his mind before then. Wilted Buddha King was good at wilted skills. This Touching Flower Finger feels like something wilted. You must be right about where it came from."
"He has absorbed the experience of Wilted Buddha King in only two years? He is very strong, indeed," Black Steel said. Rebecca nodded and did not say anything. She looked more serious than ever, though.
"Sister? Is he not cheating? He's got the will and experience from Wilted Buddha King, but we don't. Who can reach that level with such an age and rank?" Du Lishe asked, frowning.
"Clear Sea King put No Flower on stage first for an obvious reason. Now, I don't think anyone can compete with him. It looks as if we will have to let them win this one," Rebecca said.
No Flower finished writing. Then he stood up and walked back. The lonely feeling disappeared from everyone once he was done.
Inside and outside, everyone snapped out of their daze. They looked at the text on the testing gold rock, and what they saw was shocking. The wilted presence was spreading.
"That is a powerful finger skill. I have only seen a few Kings who have a skill such as that. No Flower Buddha is still so young, and it is rare to see someone like that do something like this."
"Why is it strange? Don't you know the Buddha can perform Open the Mind? The older ones can transfer their will and experience to ones of the younger generation. No Flower's mind must have received such a transference from a Buddha King. That is how he has it, mark my words."
"The Open the Mind skill is overpowered. It's like cheating. They are so young, and yet they are much stronger than us."
"Every race has an ace up their sleeve, allowing them to exceed in some way. The Rebate have an advantage of their own. Don't give up faith."
True, but I don't think anyone from our race can compete with No Flower. Normal Viscounts couldn't give out a feeling like that. Not even Earls or Marquise can do something like that."
"Well, they did travel a long way to get here. We should probably just let them win."
All the Nobles were talking about how envious they were of the Open the Mind technique.
No Flower lowered his head and waited on stage.
As this happened, a Rebate needed to go up on stage and perform a geno art of their own. This way, they could be compared. That was the general purpose of this entire event.
But No Flower Buddha's Touching Flower Finger was far too impressive. There wasn't anyone else in Moon Garden that could come close to this. Whoever came next would be too weak, and it'd be an embarrassment for them to follow.
Du Lishe and the other second-generation Rebate all looked at each other, with none making a move forward. They all sighed. They knew the Rebate were weaker than the Buddhas, at this level.
"Are those words really that good? I think Han Sen did better than him," Qing Li said to herself, looked at the testing gold rock.

Chapter 1900 Summoned Buddha
"Qing Li, what are you talking about?" Du Lishe asked from her seat next to Qing Li.
"I think Han Sen wrote better than No Flower did," Qing Li answered.
When other members of Moon Garden heard this, they thought she meant something about his handwriting being prettier. One of the members scoffed, "Qing Li, No Flower's Touching Flower Finger is something that ascends mere prettiness. There's a meaning inside it that is far more important. The shape of the characters is secondary."
Qing Li answered this by saying, "I was referring to the meaning. I think the meaning of the Buddha's text was lacking compared to Han Sen's."
They all heard what she said, but no one believed her. That was, aside from Black Steel. Black Steel was the only one there who knew Han Sen possessed such a frightening knifemind.
Rebecca looked at Qing Li and said, "Qing Li, when did you see Han Sen write? And what did his words mean?"
"It was a few days ago. The words he wrote meant Teeth Knife's Knife Mind," Qing Li said.
Rebecca shook her head. "I don't think so. How long has he been practicing Teeth Knife? He is just a Baron. He cannot generate any sort of significant knifemind. Even if he was able to, it couldn't be half as good as No Flower's Touching Flower Finger. That is something only one of the King class can generate. And Han Sen is no Buddha, either. How can you believe a Baron has a knifemind like that?"
"Your thought process is right, but I'm telling you; Han Sen's writing abilities are better than No Flower's." Qing Li was weak. She could only feel it instinctually, but she was still sure it was true.
Han Sen and Gu Qincheng were observing No Flower's writing, at the time. Gu Qingcheng was shocked, and she said, "That monk is not bad."
Gu Qingcheng actually meant exactly what she said; rather than being amazing, No Flower's talent was simply not bad.
The creatures in the sanctuary were far weaker than those in the geno universe, but that was just a factor of base strength. When it came to the actual workings of combat, and the finesse of it all, those that had made it through the sanctuary were far superior to those in the geno universe.
Gu Qingcheng's sword skills were the best to be found in the sanctuary. Her swordmind was among the greatest there, too. Despite that, her raw power was weak in comparison to others found in the geno universe. That being said, her knowledge of sword skills and swordminds exceeded what a King class in the geno universe would know.
Most beings from the sanctuary were this way, too. There were a few exceptions to that rule, like Wang Yuhang, though. He didn't really have all that much knowledge when it came to fighting, but even so, he was better than most Viscounts and Earls.
"Not bad? You sure sound cocky. If No Flower is only not bad, then do you care to enlighten us as to what can be defined as good?" said the cow-headed man next to them.
Gu Qingcheng did not want to talk to a cow, so she ignored him.
Han Sen saw No Flower and was shocked.
When he had looked at Unlimited Sutra, he felt the Buddha's geno art was quite strange. Since he had seen the raw text, he could understand why this was so weird.
Buddha King and No Flower's powers were not the same, but Han Sen felt they were similar. It reminded him of a scary guy.
Han Sen poked his head into his Sea of Soul. There was a tower in there, and it still had the word destiny scrawled across it. He put his will inside Destiny's Tower, and there, Han Sen saw Armored Man and Ancient Devil. They were still both incarcerated there.
Since Ancient Devil had been locked up, Armored Man had been fixated on the concept of skinning him alive. But with them both locked up, he couldn't lay a finger on Ancient Devil. So, all he had done was shout at the spirit, all day, every day.
Ancient Devil had been locked up for a long time, but he didn't pay too much attention to his cellmate. He meditated all day like a monk, not caring for the constant shouting in his ears.
In the beginning, Han Sen had frequently watched Ancient Devil, but that man meditated like he had been frozen. He never moved an inch, and so Han Sen lost interest.
Now that he could see No Flower's performance, he knew why it felt so strange to him. It was because the Buddha gave Han Sen the same feeling he got when he observed Ancient Devil.
"Does Ancient Devil have Buddha genes?" Han Sen guessed.
Ancient Devil seemed to sense something, as well. He opened his eyes and looked right at Han Sen. After being imprisoned for so many years, his eyes were still sparkling with clarity. They hadn't gotten dusty.
If you stared at him for a while, you'd feel as if his eyes were bottomless wells. Looking him in the eyes was like peering into an abyss.
"What would you like to know?" Ancient Devil suddenly asked.
Han Sen was shocked, and thought to himself, "This guy has been locked in Destiny's Tower, and he could sense I was watching him. What a scary man!"
Han Sen did not plan on avoiding the question. He used his will to echo answers throughout the chambers of the tower. He said, "Ancient Devil, do you know about the Buddha?"
"Yes," Ancient Devil answered.
Han Sen felt even weirder now, and that was because Ancient Devil had just leveled up to the Alliance when he was trapped inside the tower. There was no way he had ventured to the geno universe before then and learned about the Buddha that way.
"What do you know about the Buddha?" Han Sen asked.
Ancient Devil smiled and said, "I once summoned a god. And the god said he was a Buddha."
This shocked Han Sen. If Ancient Devil had summoned a Buddha, that also meant that Asura had been the one to kill a Buddha.
But Buddhas were in the geno universe, and it couldn't have been possible for it to be summoned to the sanctuaries. It made no sense. The Buddha could most certainly not enter a sanctuary. Especially since it was summoned to a sanctuary below the Alliance level.
"I am talking about the race, not the religion," Han Sen said, hoping he'd get a confirmation.
"Bald with nine moles? Like scars? This is what you mean?" Ancient Devil said simply.
Now, Han Sen knew that Ancient Devil did indeed know of the existence of the Buddhas. Whether they were real or fake, Ancient Devil knew about them.
"How did you summon that god to the Fourth God's Sanctuary?" Han Sen asked.
"You want to know? Give me back my freedom and I'll tell you everything." Ancient Devil seemed his usual self. He didn't exhibit any personality changes.
"You don't have what it takes to bargain with me," Han Sen coldly said.
"There is no need for this discussion to continue, if my freedom is not up for debate." Ancient Devil closed his eyes and returned to that frozen state.
Han Sen felt pretty bad. He had used death threats and torture techniques in the past, but using them on Ancient Devil was pointless. Even when the spirit was tortured, he would simply continue meditating.
Ancient Devil must have had the strongest will there was. Not even Kings of the geno universe could compare to him.

Chapter 1901 Before the Testing Gold Rock
"If no one can compete against No Flower, this round will be over," Moon Wheel King said, as he stood up.
He understood the thoughts of those from Moon Garden, though. He knew no one else from Moon Garden could compete with what they had just witnessed. So, he did not want to waste any further time. It'd only reflect poorly on the Rebate and Moon Garden.
"Moon Wheel King, I would like to suggest a friend that may be able to compete against No Flower." Du Lishe suddenly bowed before Moon Wheel King.
"Lishe? What are you doing?" Rebecca pulled her sister back, unsure what preposterous thing her sister was about the attempt.
"Lishe? Which student are you recommending?" Moon Wheel King was shocked by this. Du Lishe was his daughter, but he couldn't imagine who she might be hoping to suggest.
"Who I recommend is not someone privileged to be a member of Moon Garden. It is the student of Knife Queen, however. It is Han Sen of Planet Eclipse." Du Lishe smiled.
After that, Han Sen was frozen. Thus far, he had only been spectating. The rest of Narrow Moon was frozen, too. No one expected Du Lishe would request Han Sen like that.
Qing Li was taken aback, too. She pulled Du Lishe close and said, "What are you doing?"
"Did you not say Han Sen's words were far better than No Flower's? If that is true, then I recommend he be the one to compete against No Flower. If he wins, he will only make the Rebate look better," Du Lishe said.
"That's just what I thought. I don't know for a fact that Han Sen really is better," Qing Li said quickly.
Du Lishe wore a mystic smile and said, "It does not matter, even if he does lose. He is not one of the Rebate, and he is not a member of Moon Garden. He can't embarrass us, even if he fails."
Qing Li did not know what to say to that. She stared at Du Lishe and said, "If he loses, it will embarrass Knife Queen. That'd be even worse!"
Before Du Lishe could say something more, Moon Wheel King frowned on stage and said, "Han Sen is not on the member list."
"Moon Wheel King, I have heard about Knife Queen's student. If we can truly compete and compare our techniques, I would relish the chance." No Flower bowed before Moon Wheel King.
When Speechless and No Flower returned from Planet Eclipse, they talked between each other about how they might get to know Han Sen more. The best way to do that was to force him on stage and challenge him to such a competition.
Hearing Du Lishe suggest Han Sen, the eyes of Speechless and No Flower gleamed with radiance. They wouldn't let this opportunity slip away. Before Speechless herself agreed, No Flower was agreeing.
Since No Flower agreed, though, Moon Wheel King had no choice but to ask, "Is Han Sen even here?"
"Yes, I am." Han Sen stood up and bowed before Moon Wheel King.
"Are you willing to compete against No Flower?" Moon Wheel King asked.
"I am willing to," Han Sen answered. And it shocked everyone around the stage.
Even Yisha, who was on Planet Blade, was flabbergasted to hear Han Sen agree to compete against No Flower.
Han Sen thought that Yisha had let him come so that he could prove himself. He thought this had already been prearranged, and that's why he accepted the challenge so quickly. So, he had already prepared to show-off again and make Yisha take him even more seriously as a student. He hoped she would be willing to spend even more resources on his development.
Yisha actually wanted Han Sen to earn her some extra reputation, but No Flower's Touching Flower Finger was incredibly strong. It'd be difficult to find a King class person to compete with that. So, she didn't expect this would be what Han Sen would agree to so soon.
"In that case, you can come on stage and compete against No Flower." Moon Wheel King thought Du Lishe was trying to prank Han Sen, and that was why he asked Han Sen if he was willing to do it. It'd also give Han Sen the chance to avoid participation.
But Han Sen was really willing to go on stage, and that shocked Moon Wheel King. Han Sen walked toward the stage, then stepped up to the testing gold rock.
"Amitabha! Mister Han, we meet again! To be able to compete against you in the display of geno arts is a grand honor," No Flower nodded and said.
"Are you being polite?" Han Sen asked, as he walked closer to the testing gold rock. He wasn't keen on talking too much with the Buddha.
Speechless looked at Han Sen. She really wanted to see how Han Sen would choose to compete with No Flower. She didn't believe he could actually have a skill that exceeded what they had just witnessed, though.
No matter what the case might be, this was a fine opportunity to observe Han Sen. Speechless watched intently, not wanting to miss out on a single detail.
Many Nobles of Narrow Moon were not happy with the concept of Han Sen actually going on stage.
"He is just a Baron. He is actually going to compete with No Flower? Even if you used your *ss to think, you'd know that this won't end well."
"Yeah, he's not a member of Moon Garden. To hear him actually be recommended… Why would Du Lishe invite him? Does she want to embarrass him?"
"And why didn't Han Sen just say no when Moon Wheel King asked him? It'd be better than being humiliated here."
"Yeah, I don't know what he is thinking. He is just a Baron, after all. He actually thinks his skills can rival those of No Flower, which were learned from a Buddha King? He's just asking to get beaten."
"He is cocky. Far too cocky. He got a King class knife and practiced Teeth knife, but so what? His confidence grew way too quickly, and he is acting far too big for his britches."
"He is brave, but obviously stupid."
"This will be very embarrassing. Han Sen going up against No Flower is like a fake product being taste-tested in a face- off versus the real thing."
"If he can go up there, I can do it, too. At least I'm a Viscount!"
"Not even an Earl would be able to do much versus that. I felt the will earlier, and it was really crushing."
Rebecca frowned and scolded Du Lishe. "This has gone too far! Although Han Sen is not a member of Moon Garden, he is now representing the Rebate in this competition. It will be embarrassing for us if he loses."
Du Lishe shrugged and said, "You can't blame this on me. He is the one who decided to come up here. He could have said no. It's not my fault that he insisted."
Qing Li thought about things for a moment, and then said, "If Han Sen was willing to go, that also means he is confident about winning. Maybe he really does have a mind that was stronger than No Flower's."
"Impossible!" Rebecca and Du Lishe said at the same time. They did not believe Han Sen could beat No Flower. No Flower was so strong, it was like he was cheating.
Du Lishe recommended Han Sen just for fun, though. She didn't expect he'd win.
It wasn't just Rebecca and Du Lishe thinking this way, however. Most of the Rebate didn't think he'd win, either. Not even Moon Wheel King and Yisha herself.
Han Sen didn't trouble his mind with all this, though. He had a plan. He walked up to the testing gold rock and had a look at what No Flower had written. With his finger, he drew on the other side.

Chapter 1902 Buddha Touching a Flower
Han Sen stood in front of the testing gold rock, and his mind moved quickly.
No Flower's Touching Flower Finger mind was not a King class display, but to young Nobles, it certainly seemed that strong.
Teeth Knife's knifemind was stronger than No Flower's, but Han Sen could not use it. If he used all of his power, then he could definitely triumph. But Yisha would become suspicious of him.
Even if he didn't use Teeth Knife knifemind, Han Sen's own sword mind was not weak, either. He could easily defeat No Flower with that, too, but it was something Yisha had already seen before. If Han Sen used it, he'd expose the fact he was Dollar to her, and it was highly likely Yisha wouldn't let him go after that.
Fortunately, Han Sen had an alternate plan. Unlimited Sutra had a record of Touching Flower Finger. Although Han Sen had not practiced it yet, he knew what sort of geno art it was.
Every Buddha knew Touching Flower Finger, and that proved to him it wasn't a difficult geno art to get to grips with.
No Flower's version was so strong because he had been gifted the strength of Wilted's mind.
"Ancient Devil, it is just as you have said. Show me your power and be sincere about it." Han Sen placed his will inside Destiny's Tower. He spoke to Ancient Devil.
Ancient Devil smiled and said, "As you wish."
After that, Ancient Devil remained where he sat. He raised up his finger to draw.
Ancient Devil was now using Buddha's Touching Flower Finger. It was different from No Flower's Touching Flower Finger, which had been altered with Wilted's mind. When Ancient Devil brought out his finger, it was like a Buddha touching a flower. Everything in the world was inside that finger.
When Ancient Devil drew, Han Sen felt his heart connect to him. Han Sen could feel what he felt, and see what he saw.
Han Sen was in sync with Ancient Devil. He brought out his finger and pressed it against the testing gold rock. The movement of the two was perfectly synchronized.
But Ancient Devil was drawing in the air, as Han Sen's finger ran across the surface of the stone.
"Hey! It's Touching Flower Finger. Han Sen is using Touching Flower Finger?"
"It looks that way, but why does he possess the Buddha's Touching Flower Finger?"
"Touching Flower Finger is not rare, and it is common amongst the Buddha. Many outsiders know how to use it, too, so it's nothing too surprising. It surely is strange to see him want to copy and write it down, too, immediately after."
"One flower. One leaf. One world." Han Sen did not pay heed to what others said about him.
Boom!
When the Nobles saw what Han Sen had written, they fell into a stunned silence. Quickly, a cold sweat developed across all their bodies. They were so scared, it was like a curse had been laid upon them. They didn't move, and all they could do was solemnly stare at Han Sen's written word.
There were no petals, falling like No Flower's. And there was no threat of death or wilting, either.
Even so, everyone felt scared, witnessing what Han Sen had written. It zapped into the deepest recesses of their minds and latched on to them.
Seeing those words was like watching a Buddha stroking flowers without talking. It was like he could see through everything.
He was smiling as he went, but the smile was worse than the devil's.
At least the devil would lure creatures to fall with him, but this Buddha went straight for the darker side of your heart. They couldn't hide anything. It was like their ugliest, filthiest, and evilest sides were being exposed for all to see.
Facing death required courage. If they fought and failed, their could at least close their eyes and be at peace. But in front of that Touching Flower Buddha, they didn't have the strength to face it. They felt nasty. They felt as if they were muddied with sin.
"Argh!" One of the young Nobles, with a weak will, started screaming with his eyes closed. It was like he was running from something.
The Dukes and Marquise were all pale.
Night River King looked at Han Sen, and he too seemed very glum.
Including Clear Sea Buddha, all the Buddhas were in utter shock. None of them could summon the strength to say a word.
"Blergh!" A young Noble pulled out his knife and drove it into his own heart. He couldn't withstand the pressure, and so he decided to kill himself.
"I didn't kill you! I didn't steal it! I didn't do it!" More young people started to scream and run, erupting into a frenzy of madmen. They all kept on talking nonsense.
"Amitabha! Mister Han, please stop! No Flower has lost!" Clear Sea Buddha said the Buddha catchphrase, and the young Nobles woke up from the trance of that flower mind. They all looked pale, as if they had just awoken from the most horrible, lucid nightmare.
Han Sen stopped moving his finger, and he pulled it back slowly. He had only written half of it.
No one could face that fear.
"A Buddha truly touching the flower is pierced and reflected on people's minds, yielding only fear. One thought to be a Buddha, and one thought to be a Demon. It is hard to understand that, and Mister Han can practice Touching Flower Finger to this level? The Buddhas can only be ashamed of themselves. Where did you learn this?" Clear Sea Buddha looked at Han Sen with massive shock. He tried to ask as politely as he could, but he had trouble suppressing the shock.
Many people practiced Touching Flower Finger, but very few established a connection with its true meaning.
No Flower had associated it with wilting, but Han Sen had actually shown the real meaning right here. Ever since the Buddhas had created that technique, fewer than five people had ever achieved what had just been performed.
Han Sen was a Baron and not a Buddha, and yet he could practice Touching Flower Finger to that extent. It was all so difficult to imagine.
"It is a simple finger art, and No Flower explained it well enough. So, I guess I have just learned it. It didn't feel all too smooth, so I added a few modifications of my own. I apologize if I did not write it down well." Han Sen smiled.
After Han Sen said that, the Buddha stared at him in silence. The Nobles of Narrow Moon almost choked.
"So, he learned some… He modified it… And he says he did not write it down well…"
All the Nobles felt as if their lives had been wasted. They did not know geno arts could be practiced like that.
Yisha and Moon Wheel King looked at Han Sen strangely. Clear Sea King looked shocked. After a while, he said the Buddha catchphrase again. "Amitabha! Mister Han is talented. He is very well suited for the Buddha arts. If you ever come and visit us, I will be eagerly waiting for Han Sen's Buddha-talk."
Clear Sea Buddha, saying something like that, put another shock upon the assembly of Narrow Moon.
"This is too much!" Han Sen frowned. Ancient Devil's mind was stronger than he thought. Even the Buddha were shocked by it all.

Chapter 1903 It Is Not Bad
When Han Sen returned to his seat, everyone looked at him differently. Now, people were looking at him as if he was a monster.
Han Sen was not in a good mood. He had only wanted to show off Ancient Devil's mind a little bit, but that display had obviously gone off the rails. He wondered what the Kings of Narrow Moon might be thinking of him now; Yisha in particular.
"Ancient Devil, why did you do that?" Han Sen asked coldly, placing his will back inside Destiny's Tower.
"I was just giving you what you wanted," Ancient Devil responded.
He sat where he was, unmoving. He smiled like a Buddha touching flowers.
Han Sen didn't say anything in response. He merely looked at Ancient Devil for a bit, then left the tower.
"Ancient Devil is way too dangerous. I can't risk letting him out," Han Sen thought to himself.
What happened next, in the gathering, was suddenly much more boring. After No Flower and Han Sen's performances, even though there were many talented Buddhas and Rebates, the event was a slog.
People weren't thinking much about the event anymore. People's minds were too preoccupied with Han Sen.
"An amazing mind, Qing Li. You were right. Han Sen's mind is strong. I wonder how he managed to practice that." Du Lishe looked strange.
Qing Li did not know what to say. This was not the mind she had previously seen. What she had seen was Teeth Knife knifemind. But now, they were not going to believe that, so all she did was smile.
"It is a shame he has hair. Otherwise, I would believe him to be one of the Buddhas. He could most certainly be a King class Buddha, or even a deified one." Rebecca kept looking over to where Han Sen was sitting.
That Buddha sentence shocked the people of Moon Garden. It was hard to imagine that it had all come out of a Baron.
The event kept on chugging along, and when Speechless took the stage, she looked over to where Han Sen was sitting. She bowed and said, "I hope I can compete so skillfully against Han Sen. Please teach me something."
Being challenged by Speechless like that, made everyone look at Han Sen again. They were all hoping that he'd accept. People in Narrow Moon knew Han Sen could use Teeth powers.
Han Sen shook his head. "You are too polite. I have not practiced sword skills much. I am afraid I'd perform too poorly for you to see."
Han Sen was too obvious earlier, and he wasn't keen on the prospect of performing again in front of everyone.
"That is okay. Skills are all connected. Knife Queen's Teeth Knife is so famous, and if you can use knife skills, I would be glad," Speechless said.
Now that Speechless had said that, it would reflect poorly if Han Sen continued to decline. So Han Sen thought for a moment and then said, "I am not very good at sword skills, and I don't like hitting women. How about this person next to me? Her sword skills are great. If you really want someone worth competing against, ask her to practice with you."
Hearing that, Speechless frowned and looked upset.
"Han Sen, Speechless is a guest here. You cannot be so rude as to deny this," Moon Wheel King said.
"Okay," Han Sen answered, standing up.
Speechless suddenly smiled and said, "In that case, I will fight against her. And if she loses, you will compete with me. Is that correct?"
"If you really are that desperate for this, then okay." Han Sen nodded. They were both Viscount class opponents, so Han Sen did not believe Gu Qingcheng could lose.
"I am sorry to bother you, my lady." Speechless bowed to Gu Qingcheng.
Gu Qingcheng rolled her eyes at Han Sen, got up, and walked to the stage.
Narrow Moon and the Buddhas were curious. They did not know why Han Sen would let his subordinate practice against Speechless.
Many people thought Han Sen was just a Baron. He had a powerful will, but not powerful strength. Perhaps he did not want to embarrass himself, so he pushed a subordinate out to take the fall for him.
But that did not make sense, either. If she lost, he would have to go fight Speechless, anyway.
As people guessed what Han Sen was trying to accomplish, the practice started.
Speechless let a worker bring out the same Viscount sword. Then she said to Gu Qingcheng, "If you think this sword is poor, you may feel free to use your own."
"It's the same." Gu Qingching picked up the offered sword.
Speechless smiled and picked up the other. She said, "Please."
Gu Qingcheng pulled the sword back and swung it at Speechless.
It was an ordinary technique to draw back the sword. But in her hands, it wasn't so simple.
Gu Qingcheng's sword skills were overbearing. The moment she held the sword, they were at one with each other.
In Speechless' eyes, it suddenly felt as if her entire world had been taken by that sword. She could not dodge the quick strike, and all she could do was use her hand to fight against it.
"What a powerful swordmind!" Speechless was shocked. She did not expect a subordinate of Han Sen could be such an effective swordsman.
She never anticipated that the sword would come at her with such speed. Speechless gathered up her sword power and composed her swordmind to fight back.
But Speechless was not very good at fighting in this manner. She wasn't called Speechless because she was mute, but because the Buddha that opened her eyes was called Speechless. She was grateful for that, and so she called herself Speechless.
Speechless Buddha King was good at Speechless Sword. But Speechless Sword was silent. It was a sonic-power skill that no one could hear. It was scary.
The swords made no sound, and no one spoke.
Many of Speechless Buddha's past enemies never knew what happened to them, or why they were killed. Their deaths had come faster than they could utter a word.
Speechless Sword was scary, but you could not fight it head-to-head.
The two swords clashed against each other. But then, Gu Qingcheng returned her sword and walked off the stage. Katcha!
Everyone saw Gu Qingcheng leave the stage, and as they did, the Nobles wondered what had just occurred. And then, they heard a sound. Speechless1 sword had been broken in half. Her eyebrow was now home to a small cut. Blood dripped out from the laceration, and it looked like another red mole.
Everyone was shocked. Speechless had been quickly defeated by Han Sen's subordinate. The whole event had been silent, as if the spectators had watched a battle of ghosts.
"Sword skills like that.. Where do my sword skills stack up against that?11 Everyone recalled what Han Sen had said, and their stomachs felt hollow.

Chapter 1904 Three Month Promise
The exchange was supposed to be a stage for Moon Garden and its members, but Han Sen's Buddha writing and Gu Qingcheng's display of sword skills made the aforementioned members—and the Buddhas—look rather lame. Han Sen was on the tip of everyone's tongue now.
People thought Gu Qingcheng was a family member of Han Sen. Believing that, it meant one member of his family could beat Speechless Buddha. Han Sen also had Teeth Knife and created a mind simply by watching a Buddha's performance. It was all so unbelievable. The whole of Narrow Moon was fascinated.
The real elites did not believe Han Sen's words, though. They did not think he could learn as simply as he had claimed. Yisha was one of these non-believers, too. As soon as the exchange ended, Han Sen was summoned to the palace. "Where did you learn Touching Flower Finger?" Yisha asked.
"I found this book, and I learned Touching Flower Finger from it." Han Sen gave Unlimited Sutra over to Yisha.
Han Sen had prepared an explanation when he borrowed Ancient Devil's mind. But Ancient Devil's mind had been too strong, and so Yisha found it difficult to believe him.
"This must be the original version of Unlimited Sutra. It is a secret skill of the Buddha. Where did you get it from?" Yisha looked at the Unlimited Sutra text and seemed very surprised.
"When I was young, I saved an injured man. He was an old fellow. I brought him home, and I healed him. He gave this to me before he left." Han Sen had prepared all the stuff he was going to tell her.
"What did he look like? Can you confirm he was one of the Buddha?" Yisha asked.
"I was very young, so I didn't know what a Buddha was back then. Even so, I don't think he was. I'm fairly sure that the old man had hair." Han Sen described Ancient Devil's face to her, but with a few added years.
Yisha heard what he had to say, but she did not immediately respond. After a while of thought, she said, "You used this Unlimited Sutra to practice Touching Flower Finger to such a high degree of skill?"
"Yes," Han Sen forced himself to say. He was going to pretend he was a genius, so Yisha might be willing to part with more resources. But Ancient Devil had deliberately overcast his mind and made Han Sen look ridiculous. He didn't know if Yisha would believe him.
Yisha didn't believe him entirely, either. It was just the Unlimited Sutra, from what she could see. There didn't seem to be any extra guidance. Furthermore, Han Sen was just a commoner. No one should believe he could reach that level.
"It looks like you are a genius," Yisha said, while looking right at Han Sen.
She could not completely trust what Han Sen said, but she was still happy about his performance. She didn't want to think about Han Sen possibly lying.
"Thank you very much. I am a bit stupid, and others can learn many things. All I can learn is one thing at a time. I am afraid that is why I am so slow. I keep practicing, as I did with that, and that is how it happened," Han Sen said.
Yisha looked at Unlimited Sutra, and then looked at Han. "Good. In that case, keep being this stupid self of yours. If your stupid way can enable you to practice Touching Flower Finger to such a high level, I am sure you can practice Teeth Knife knifemind just fine. Is three months enough for that, do you think?"
"My Queen, Teeth Knife is the ultimate knife skill. It is not all that easy to generate a knifemind. I am afraid I will only disappoint you again." Han Sen pretended to look bitter. On the inside, however, he was delighted.
This was a two-birds-one-stone affair. With the title of a genius, he could use Teeth Knife knifemind without being required to hide his ability.
"Just this Unlimited Sutra can yield a mind like this? Right now, I will teach you. I will make you generate a knifemind. You don't need a deep mind for this, and you are already willing to say you cannot achieve this? Are you telling me that Teeth Knife is worse than Unlimited Sutra? Or are you simply saying that I am a poor teacher?" Yisha looked coldly at Han Sen, as she spoke to him.
"That is not what I meant! I will do what I can. I will not disappoint you." Han Sen quickly swore to God.
"Good. This is the good student I know." Yisha nodded.
Yisha did not actually believe what Han Sen was telling her, but she did not want to mistakenly place blame on him. So, she gave Han Sen a test. If Han Sen could generate a Teeth Knife knifemind in three months, it really would prove that he was a genius. And if that was true, she would go ahead and treat him even better.
If Han Sen failed this, then Han Sen would have a problem. And if so, he would need to be investigated. She could not blindly spend resources on him.
Han Sen knew her thought process on this matter, though. And he was really happy about it. Generating a Teeth Knife knifemind was not even a test. It was way too easy.
"What is that family member of yours called? Where did you take her from?" Yisha asked.
"My Queen, her name is Gu Qingcheng. She is a member that comes from Planet Crooked Rock," Han Sen said quickly.
"Not bad. But you should keep an eye on her. People with a swordmind like that are usually out for something else," Yisha warned Han Sen.
Yisha knew many factions had sent spies to keep tabs on Han Sen. She thought Gu Qingcheng might be one of them.vThat was because Gu Qingcheng did not use all her powers against Speechless. Yisha wouldn't feel this way if she had.
Yisha had much greater strength than Gu Qingcheng, but Gu Qingcheng's swordmind might rival Yisha's.
Speechless only received her mind from an old monster. Gu Qingcheng was the real old monster.
"Yes, I will ensure that I am careful." Han Sen nodded.
After he left Yisha, Han Sen took a ship back to Planet Eclipse. He called Qiao, Lan Se, and Stay Up Late.
He invited them to Planet Eclipse, but Qiao and Lan Se thought things were fine with Seven Mirror. What's more, they had friends there now. And so, they made no plans to go to Planet Eclipse.
Stay Up Late wanted to know more about the geno universe, so he made plans to come. He was hoping to learn more news about the location of Littleflower and Nine-Life Cat, too. He did not want to stay in the same place for too long.
After talking with Qiao, Han Sen returned his mind to Destiny's Tower. There, he spoke with Ancient Devil.
Ancient Devil was trapped in the tower, but he never assumed himself to be at a disadvantage. He spoke to Han Sen as if they were both equals.
When Han Sen borrowed help from Ancient Devil, he told Ancient Devil that if co-operation went well, he'd be willing to give him a chance.
Helping Han Sen with his mind was just a part of his show of sincerity. He had performed too well, though. Han Sen couldn't be sure if he had done it on purpose, but Han Sen believed that he had.
"Ancient Devil, you should co-operate properly. You shouldn't make stupid moves." Han Sen hadn't killed him because he knew too many secrets. And Han Sen wanted those secrets. All he could think about was finding a safe method for getting Ancient Devil to talk.
Han Sen wanted those secrets too badly to get rid of Ancient Devil.

Chapter 1905 Private Female Club
In Narrow Moon's Full Moon meeting room.
Six Kings had shown up for this meeting. Yisha, Moon Wheel King, Night River King, Flower King, Black Moon King, and Shadow King.
"Knife, do you really believe what he tells you? Despite being only a Baron, he has managed to achieve a mind such as that with Unlimited Sutra? Seriously? Not even Barons who go on to become deified elites are that strong," Night River King said.
Black Moon King coughed and said, "Night River, let's not impose limits that might not exist. This universe is so grand in its reaches that there could be anything out there. Han Sen really is talented. Just because you are unable to achieve such feats of might, don't presume others cannot either."
"Black Moon, don't talk such nonsense. Look at this universe! Are there any Barons with that level of capability?" Night River frowned.
"If everyone was able to do it, why else would we single out the exemplary and call them geniuses?" Black Moon King asked slowly.
Night River King started to respond, but Moon Wheel King cut him off. Moon Wheel King looked at Flower King and Shadow King, and said, "What do you two think?"
Flower King groaned and said, "Han Sen's power seems unlikely, but we can't claim that there's a problem without knowing what it is. That hardly seems fair."
Moon Wheel King nodded. He looked at Shadow King, and Shadow King said, "I would rather put an end to this before it gets out of hand."
Yes!" Night River King said immediately. "Han Sen's history is far too strange, and he cannot be kept."
Moon Wheel King looked at Black Moon King, and Black Moon King said, "Killing a genius like that makes no sense. It will just scare off the other races, and no other race will want to co-operate with us."
"Knife, you understand where we're coming from, yes? He is your student, so it is best that you decide what to do." Moon Wheel King looked at Yisha.
Yisha said calmly, "I gave him a chance. If he passes the test, I can prove that he is fine. If he cannot pass the test, I will sever ties with him and search for any threat he might pose. If I find something, I will get rid of him."
"What is the test? If he really is a spy from some other race, he will have come prepared. He will pass the test." Night River King looked displeased.
"Oh? You think a Baron spy will be able to create a Teeth Knife knifemind in three months?" Yisha's face was expressionless.
Hearing Yisha say this, the other Kings stared at her with wide eyes.
"Generate a Teeth Knife knifemind in three months? Really?" Moon Wheel King asked, stumbling slightly over the question.
"What is the problem?" Yisha responded.
"I have no problem with that. If he can accomplish that in three months, then I will believe he is a real genius," Night River King slowly said, as he sat down.
It sounded like complete lunacy. It was silly, to think of generating a Teeth Knife knifemind in three months. Across the history of the Rebate, no one had managed anything like that.
Night River King did not believe Han Sen could do it, as Teeth Knife was exclusive to the Rebate. Even among the Rebate, it was rare. The only person who had mastered the skill was Yisha, and you couldn't cheat your way to learn it.
The Kings were mollified. If Han Sen could generate a Teeth Knife knifemind in three months, then practicing Touching Flower Finger with such proficiency would make a lot more sense.
"If we can confirm Han Sen is legit, and he really is a true genius, should we give him a bit of a reputation? His identity should allow him to become a member of Moon Garden. He did make us proud in this event, after all. If we still don't let him in, the outsiders in Narrow Moon will become suspicious of us," Black Moon King said.
"If he can generate a Teeth Knife knifemind in three months, I would be willing to make him a teacher in the Moon Garden," Night River King said grimly.
Black Moon King smiled at Night River King, then turned his gaze across the table.
"Moon Wheel King, what do you think?"
"If he is legit, and he really is that talented, he should definitely be a member of Moon Garden," Moon Wheel King said.
"If everyone has no problem with this, then we shall all reconvene in three months." Yisha stood up and left the Full Moon meeting room.
Lu Xiaomei was walking down the street. The dark circles under her eyes were heavy, and she kept rubbing her head. Ever since Han Bao'er had entered her school, she had begun to feel like she was drowning.
She was a kindergarten teacher. Before Bao'er, she had dealt with kids crying, not wanting to go to school, and things like that. But now, going to work was like walking into hell itself. If her job hadn't paid well, she would have quit a long time ago to escape having to deal with the monster that resided there.
"I can't do it anymore. I am going to die! Today is supposed to be a holiday, and so I should treat myself with a day at the spa. And buy myself a nice gift! Ever since that little witch arrived, I look ten years older." Lu Xiaomei walked into a high-class female club. She swiped her card as she walked through the door. "I really do need to treat myself better. I can just eat nutrient fluids for the month to make up for what I spend today."
After she entered the place, the attendants served her with passion. She felt as if she had ascended in society, taking the place of royalty.
"This is my life. Finally, I don't have to worry about that monster." Lu Xiaomei wrapped a bathrobe around herself and lay down to wait for her masseuse.
"Miss Lu," a voice sounded in her ear. It made her muscles freeze. She jumped up and frantically looked around. She didn't see anyone there, so she felt relieved. She lay back down on the bed and said to herself, "I am starting to hallucinate. Clearly, I am far too stressed out. Maybe I'll go shopping today, too. That should help."
After lying back down, Lu Xiaomei turned over, and there was a pretty little girl next to her, smiling.
"Miss Lu, what stores are you going to?"
You… you… why are you here!" Lu Xiaomei looked like she had just seen a ghost. She jumped up and pointed at the girl. "I own this club. Did you not know that?" Bao'er shook her head.
Lu Xiaomei's eyes opened wide. "You own this place?"
"Yes. I have thirty-one branches of this establishment, all across the city." Bao'er spoke with innocence.
"This b*tch is showing off again…" Lu Xiaomei felt both jealous and depressed. She was really hoping Bao'er would disappear right now.
But an evil expression crossed Bao'er's face, and she said, "By the way, I am going to the VIP area for a session. Would you like to come?"
"Can I?" Lu Xiaomei was quite shocked. It was a very expensive place, and she could only come here once a month. For half a month, she would have to eat nutrient fluid just to compensate for how much that place cost. The VIP area was a place you couldn't easily go to—even if you had a lot of money. She wanted to go, but non-VIPs weren't allowed.
"Of course, if you want. I can ask the manager to provide you with a VIP card." Bao'er smiled.

Chapter 1906 Hopeless
"This is the life a woman should have. I've wasted my life; I should have gotten rich instead." Lu Xiaomei was as pretty as the next snobbish woman. She was reveling in the high-tier service, and she was almost in tears.
Bao'er called for a high-class massage, food, and drinks she had never tried before. She showed Lu Xiaomei what it felt like to be royalty.
This little witch can actually be quite cute. It is only just a kid, after all. Perhaps the creature is innocent, at times," Lu Xiaomei thought. She observed Bao'er as she sipped on a drink.
"Miss Lu, are you enjoying this service?" Bao'er was holding onto a bottle of juice as she sipped it with a straw.
"Yes, I love it! This place is great. Your family has very good taste." Lu Xiaomei had another sip of wine and felt so good.
"I am glad you like it. You can come whenever you like." Bao'er smiled.
"Really?" Lu Xiaomei's eyes looked bright.
"Of course. I have already prepared a VIP card for you." Bao'er clicked her fingers.
Quickly, a waitress rushed over with a plate. She walked in front of Lu Xiaomei and put down the dish. Politely, she told her, "Miss Lu, this is your very own VIP card."
Lu Xiaomei accepted the card, then saw a bill. The waitress said, "And yes, this your bill for the day's services."
"A bill?" Lu Xiaomei's face stiffened. When she looked at the bill, she almost fainted. She couldn't even pronounce the sum, but with all the numbers, she knew it was more than exorbitant.
The muscles in Lu Xiaomei's face twitched. She looked to be in a far worse state than someone crying their eyes out. "Bao'er, you gave me all this! Wasn't this all a treat on you?"
Bao'er's eyes opened wide, and she said with shock, "I am just a kid! I don't have any money. I asked if this was what you wanted, and you said yes. You had me order all this."
"D*mn! This little thing must be doing all of this on purpose!" Lu Xiaomei almost coughed up blood. Bao'er's cute face had turned into a demon mask.
"I don't care! I didn't order all this. I am not paying." Lu Xiaomei jumped up.
"What are you saying? You're not paying?" Bao'er looked at Lu Xiaomei with shock.
Lu Xiaomei wished to say there was nothing Bao'er could do but pay it herself, when all of a sudden, two eight-foot-tall women stepped into the room. They stood in front of her.
Lu Xiaomei looked at their beefy arms and hastily took back her words. She replaced them by saying, "I don't have enough money to afford this."
"That's okay. You are my teacher. So, why don't you sign this paper, and then we can make this bill all go away." Bao'er smiled and pulled a contract out of her little bag. She put it in front of her teacher, as if this was all going according to a scheme she had already planned out.
"D*mn! She prepared for this." Lu Xiaomei was grinding her teeth as she looked down at the contract.
It was a contract that required her to relinquish her very self. There were more than one hundred unfair terms on the contract, and if she signed it, she would be wholly owned by Bao'er.
"I am not signing this, even if you kill me!" Lu Xiaomei said through gritted teeth.
Bao'er smiled. "Miss Lu, what are you talking about? I have a decent club, and I won't hit you. But the stuff you have just enjoyed, the gambling you've done, even the look on your face when shopping… It has all been recorded. You like the teacher Mister Luo, don't you? He's handsome and rich, yes? He is even chasing you, you know. I'm thinking I should show him all the footage, and present him with your unpaid bill. The elegant image you have been clinging onto for so long will be gone with the wind. Think about that for a moment, and then reconsider whether or not you wish to sign this."
"Hellspawn! You are hellspawn! The stuff you have is so expensive. A cup of wine costs thirty thousand! This is a scam!"
"The luxuries you have been enjoying were all imported from other planets. They are the best of the best, and some of them were even shura delicacies. Of course they are not cheap. If you'd like, you can check the prices on Skynet. If you happen to find that our prices are too high, we will certainly price-match." Bao'er smiled.
Lu Xiaomei struggled a bit. She signed the contract because of the handsome Mister Luo. Then she started to cry. Bao'er patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. Work for me for fifty years, and you'll have paid off your debt. The contract will also be erased at that point."
It would have been better if Bao'er hadn't said anything. Now the woman really wanted to cry.
Lu Xiaomei began walking out of the club. Fortunately, Bao'er had already arranged for an aircraft to come and pick her up. If she hadn't, she wouldn't have had the money to get home. Everything she had belonged to Bao'er now.
"You've gone off course. You should go to the Eastern Lake," Lu Xiaomei said.
"I'm sorry, who's driving this aircraft again?" the driver asked snarkily, looking at her through his sunglasses.
Lu Xiaomei was furious. "Yeah, you are just the driver! Let me out so I can walk home."
"Sure." The driver stopped the aircraft and landed.
Lu Xiaomei got off the aircraft and kicked the door closed. She said, "You are all bad people! This karma will come back to bite you one day."
She turned and left. She eventually saw a familiar form walking nearby. It was her Prince Charming. It was Mister Luo.
"After having bad luck for so long, finally, something good! My Prince Charming, here I come!" Lu Xiaomei walked towards Luo Yushu.
But just as she was about to greet him, she saw the woman with him. The woman was dressed sexily and holding his arm. She leaned close to him.
"Luo Yushu, who is this woman?" Lu Xiaomei was so angry that she didn't even care about maintaining her image. She grabbed his arm and pointed at the woman.
Luo Yushu was shocked. The woman then said, "Luo Yushu, who is this woman?"
Luo Yushu's face changed, and he pushed Lu Xiaomei away. He explained to the woman, "Honey, listen to me. She works in the kindergarten with me. She keeps hounding me for my love, despite me constantly pushing her away. She has never stopped, and even now, she follows me around."
"Luo Yushu, what are you saying?" Lu Xiaomei was so angry. He was the one who kept chasing her, and she couldn't believe what he was now saying.
The woman looked at Lu Xiaomei, rolled her eyes, and said, "You are just a teacher! And yet, you want to steal a man away from someone like me? Are you crazy? I can give this man pocket money, the likes of which you will never earn in your lifetime. Maybe when I grow tired of him, you'll get your chance."
After that, the woman walked forward and pushed Lu Xiaomei back. She kept herself from falling, but she still dropped everything she was holding in her hands.
"Apologize to me, and then pick everything up." Lu Xiaomei was so angry, she wanted to throttle the woman.
"Are you crazy? Get lost! I told you I am not interested in you." Luo Yushu looked annoyed, and he also pushed her. He did not want her to hurt the woman he was currently with.
When Luo Yushu pushed her, Lu Xiaomei fell back with nothing but anger and hopelessness.
Suddenly, an arm grabbed her waist. It steadied her shoulders, then her body.
She opened her eyes and realized it was the driver with sunglasses.
She wished to say something, but the sky suddenly drew her attention. Many aircraft were suddenly headed towards them. In a minute, the vehicles had parked all around them, making the place very crowded.
Many men, dressed in black with sunglasses, got out of their vehicles. They looked like gangsters as they gathered around.
"What are you people here for? What do you want?" The woman and Luo Yushu began stepping back.
Lu Xiaomei looked at the aircraft around them: King, Steel, Silver, Ghost, Starry, Star, Miracle. They were all special editions that not just anyone could buy. Having a single one of them meant you were one of the super rich elite.
Now that there were so many of them there, the woman and Luo Yushu were frozen. The men looked intimidating in their black clothes and sunglasses. It made the couple's legs grow soft.
The men dressed in black ignored the woman and Luo Yushu. They all walked in front of Lu Xiaomei and said, "Second Lady."
Luo Yushu and the woman widened their eyes as if they had seen a ghost. They could barely stand on their feet.
Lu Xiaomei was just as dazed, too. She had no clue what was going on.
"Second Lady, Miss Bao'er asked us to come and pick you up," the driver said to Lu Xiaomei. And then, he looked at the woman and Luo Yushu and said, "Did these two bully you? I can kill them for you, if you'd like."
"Sorry, I didn't mean to do that! I will pick the stuff up. Please forgive me!" The woman's legs were wobbling, and she raced to collect all the items Yu Xiaomei had dropped.
"She forced me, Xiaomei. I did this for our future together," Luo Yushu said.
"Go to hell!" Lu Xiaomei grabbed her bag and smacked him in the face with it. He hit the deck, so she went ahead and kicked him in the nuts. He writhed and screamed in pain.
The woman saw Lu Xiaomei looking back at her next. She slapped herself.
Pat! Pat! "It's my fault. Please forgive me!"
"Let's go." Lu Xiaomei gritted her teeth, and no longer paid them heed.
The driver opened the door to the aircraft, and there, Lu Xiaomei saw Bao'er. She cried and went over to hold her, saying, "Bao'er…"
"Don't cry." Bao'er stroked her head and tried to comfort her.
"Thank you, Bao'er!" Lu Xiaomei couldn't help but cry a little. She did her best to hold back her tears and look at the child with gratefulness.
You are welcome. I used two hundred and twenty-three aircraft to help you. The fuel for each comes to a sum of around seventy-eight thousand. With the wages for the drivers, and the damage…" Bao'er fiddled with a calculator and whipped out another contract.
"Hellspawn! You hellspawn!" The aircraft echoed with Lu Xiaomei's screams.

Chapter 1907 Strange Mountain
Han Sen planned to practice in the mountains. He didn't need to practice Teeth Knife, but there were too many spies occupying the base. If Han Sen stayed there without practicing, people might grow suspicious.
So, Han Sen headed into the mountains to train. But instead of practicing Teeth Knife as he had told everyone, he began to work on the Dongxuan Sutra.
His Mutant Blood and Jadeskin had reached Viscount class, but the Dongxuan Sutra and The Story of Genes hadn't. The Story of Genes couldn't be leveled up through mere practice, so he could only focus on the Dongxuan Sutra for now.
Han Sen didn't take anyone with him this time. He planned to push himself hard in order to breakthrough, which would make it dangerous to have others around him.
Fortunately, there were many resources on Planet Eclipse. Xie Qing King and others could venture out and hunt xenogeneics on their own. The people he had brought over from the sanctuaries could eat xenogeneic genes and use beast souls, so they leveled up faster than the people in the geno universe.
"Xenogeneic Gene Eaten; Iron Wolf; Viscount Gene 1."
Han Sen gobbled up some xenogeneic meat, and his Viscount xenogeneic gene tally increased. When one of his bodies became Viscount, he could increase that gene tally. Baron xenogeneic genes were currently useless for him. He had to eat Viscount materials exclusively now.
Killing Viscount xenogeneics was an easy task for Han Sen, and his Viscount genes were increasing quickly.
After six days of travel, Han Sen found himself more than a thousand miles deep into the mountains. He met strong Marquise creatures, but he was able to run away with the rabbit shoes. Overall, the venture wasn't too dangerous.
"What is this?" As Han Sen treaded along a path, he spied the presence of a strange mountain.
The weather on Planet Eclipse wasn't great. There was no grass growing, and so all the mountains were barren and rocky.
The mountain in front of him was very green, though. Trees were growing all over it. There were flowers, and some of the plants even possessed fruit.
There were birds and insects on this mountain. They were far away, but Han Sen could feel their lifeforce.
"Planet Eclipse has a mountain like this?" Han Sen thought it was weird. He examined the surrounding area and realized that it was the only mountain like this in the region.
Han Sen carefully approached it. There had to be a reason why it was so luscious. Perhaps there was a treasure or something; that thought prompted Han Sen to have a look around.
Han Sen trekked to the mountain. While he noticed that there were a large collection of lifeforces coming from the mountain, he could tell that the birds and the trees were completely normal. There didn't seem to be any xenogeneics, either.
"Weird. Xenogeneic plants are difficult to grow on this planet, and even xenogeneic creatures often have trouble surviving. And yet, how are these all alive? Especially since they seem so ordinary." Han Sen was quite curious about this anomaly.
Han Sen kept walking up the mountain, and the foliage was just as lovely as it had appeared from a distance. Normal plants and creatures were spread out all across the mountain, as if the entire mountain had been transplanted to Planet Eclipse.
After an hour, Han Sen was able to reach the peak. He was quite shocked by the view he now saw, though.
Atop the mountain, amidst a small grove of trees, there was an emerald field. A wooden house stood there, and it looked very old.
"Is anyone there?" Han Sen called out to the occupied house. He thought it was a strange thing to find, and so he thought to himself, "Who could build a house in a place like this?"
Han Sen shouted again, but he received no response. So, he walked to the house because the windows were open. He wanted to take a look at what was inside from there.
The decorations of the interior were simple and rustic. They were all comprised of wood, and the primary features were a table and bed. Even the teapot and the plates were made of wood. It looked as if the people there used wood to build everything.
The wood was not big, though. You could see it all in one eye. There was a room at the back of the house, too, but you could not see it from outside.
"Is anyone in here?" Han Sen asked. He received no response. So, he pushed open the door and it swung forward. A lock hadn't been fixed on it.
Han Sen walked inside and poked around. There didn't seem to be anything worth examining, so he decided to check out the back room.
Han Sen opened the door and froze. All of a sudden, he found a person standing next to the bed. They were facing Han Sen with their eyes open.
"I am sorry. I called from the outside, and I believed this place was empty." Han Sen explained, but his words were met with awkward silence. Something was giving him pause.
That was because the person next to the bed was a man: a human.
The man stood where he was and did not move. He didn't even look at Han Sen.
"Excuse me…" Han Sen looked at the man and spoke carefully. He wanted to know what he was, and why there might be a human there.
But Han Sen did not know for sure that the man was a human. He could have been a crystallizer, forgotten long ago.
Han Sen asked him a few questions, and each time he received no response. Han Sen would have thought the man was dead if not for his lifeforce.
"My name is Han Sen. What is yours?"
When Han Sen said that, the man suddenly moved. He put a finger in front of his lips, like a gesture to indicate he should be quiet. The man did not appear hostile, and that brought Han Sen much relief. He stopped talking and just watched the man.
The man continued standing there for a whole hour, without saying as much as a single word. He looked more like a statue than a living being.
"Is he practicing, maybe? Hmm, but it doesn't look like it." Han Sen felt very confused, but also very curious. He sat on a chair to watch the man and see what he'd do.
But ten hours went by, and still, the man did not budge.
"Friend, can we talk?" Han Sen could not wait any longer.
"Ssh!" The man gestured for silence again.
Han Sen's heart sank. He hadn't a clue what he was doing. He couldn't ask anything, as the man kept hushing him.
Han Sen looked around the room and noticed that it was all rustic, just like the rest of the house. Han Sen looked at a table and found something that was actually not made of wood. There was paper, alongside a stack of books.
"Friend, can I check this out?" Han Sen walked before the table and glanced over the books. There was a diary with many words scrawled on it.
But Han Sen didn't begin reading immediately. He still wanted to ask the man for permission.
The man looked very nervous, and he performed the ssh gesture again.
"If you don't object, then I'll assume you are agreeing." Han Sen went ahead to read the contents of the diary.

Chapter 1908 Crystallizer
Quickly, Han Sen noticed he was able to read the text contained within the diary. It was written in the ancient language of humans—a text often used by the crystallizers. There were, however, a variety of symbols not even he could understand. All-in-all, he didn't understand everything together.
There were some formulas jotted down. Han Sen wasn't very good at science. He had learned a bit in school, but he had forgotten most of that by now.
But Han Sen was still able to tell he had never seen these formulas before. They were extremely complicated. Judging from the content of the book, the man had been trying to calculate something.
Han Sen flicked through the pages of the book, and the man showed no reaction. As long as Han Sen made no noise, the man didn't mind his presence there. That's how it seemed, leastways.
When the man didn't object to Han Sen's behavior, it made Han Sen feel safe enough to relax a little. So, he continued reading the diary. It must have been a draft of sorts. There were many random things jotted down.
However, there were enough words and symbols that Han Sen did not understand to make the book unintelligible.
Han Sen put the diary down and took a gander at the other books. They all seemed to concern themselves with science. There were ones based on quantum theory. Han Sen knew he would not understand those books.
Since the books were in messy disarray, Han Sen decided to tidy them up. By doing that, he also hoped to find a book he might enjoy. And soon after, his breath caught. He saw a book titled The Story of Genes.
This was what Han Sen had retrieved from the Main Control Room of the crystallizers. Ever since that time, he hadn't found a single thing associated with the book.
Not even Stay Up Late knew where The Story of Genes came from. He read it, shook his head, and thought it must be a prank. No one could use The Story of Genes, or even practice it. It was not something any creature could learn.
Han Sen had never expected that he would find another copy in a place like this.
"Perhaps it is just a coincidence. Maybe the title is the same, but it's not actually the same book." Han Sen tried to regather the composure of his thoughts, and then, flipped the book open.
When he read the first line, he knew he had not been mistaken. This was indeed another copy of The Story of Genes. It was exactly the same.
Han Sen kept reading the content, and word for word, it was the same.
Aside from the standard content, there were actually many notes explaining things. But they weren't related to how you'd actually practice with the text. The notes were of a scientific nature.
Han Sen read it all seriously, right up until he reached the end.
The content, from back to front, was the same as his own The Story of Genes. There was, however, an additional page. That page had nothing to do with how to practice the work, though. It was a summary.
The summary used an extensive vocabulary. Han Sen did not understand what was written until he reached the final line. It said the test had failed.
There was something else he understood, too. "Cannot figure out the requirements for practice. The Story of Genes theory does not make sense. Can I not create a god?"
"Is this guy the creator of The Story of Genes?" Han Sen looked back at the man strangely.
The man was dressed in ordinary garments, but they were in tatters. He stood motionless, like a mannequin. He was focused, as if he was trying to hear something.
Han Sen had something he wished to ask, but he knew that if he tried to ask anything, the man would simply tell him to be quiet.
Han Sen kept sorting through the books on the table. There were books on many different subjects, from genes to quantum theory. Overall, Han Sen could not understand much.
After Han Sen tidied up the books, he decided to sit and observe the man. The man really wasn't moving, and he was unsure how long the man could do this.
Han Sen had almost fallen asleep when the man finally moved. He walked gently towards the table, looked down at Han Sen, and said, "Who are you? Why have you come here?"
"I am Han Sen. What's your name?" Han Sen asked happily.
"Run, or it will be too late for you to escape." The man looked annoyed.
"What does that mean?" Han Sen felt a chill, and he thought the man might try to fight him.
"You don't know that you are on a spirit's body. If it moves, it will travel through space," the man explained.
"You mean the mountain is a creature?" Han Sen asked with shock.
"What is so weird about that? There is plenty of life in this world," the man said.
"It's a mountain. How can a mountain have life? There are other creatures like birds and worms on this mountain," Han Sen said.
The man looked at him with disdain. "You have so many bacteria and parasites on you. Does the fact that they have life mean that you do not?"
"But I am a living thing. The mountain is just a rock," Han Sen said.
"Who said rocks cannot possess life? It's like a piece of meat. You wouldn't say it is living, but it is a part of life," the man said.
"It's not like that. If the rock is like flesh, then why are we able to create mines? And why does the life of rock not resist? Like us; if someone was digging into our flesh, we'd want to kill whoever was assaulting us," Han Sen asked.
The man laughed. "It's because we are too fast!"
"Too fast?" Han Sen froze, unsure of what he meant.
The man explained. "The rock lives longer than we do. A billion years might only be a moment for them. Even if we do dig into its body, the rock might not even have the time to notice our presence. It cannot see what we do."
Han Sen was frozen. He had never thought of things this way before.
The man looked at Han Sen. "You said we would kill anyone who harms, yes? But things aren't like that. What if we grow a sickness like cancer? It destroys our bodies, but often, we can't root out the thing that is killing us. When these things harm your body, you cannot do anything. Just like the rock is unable to do things about us."
"This is just a simple way for me to explain these things. The truth of such matters is far more complicated. If you are interested in learning more, read this. You will understand far better." The man gave Han Sen a book.
"My scientific background is pretty bad. I might not understand." Han Sen felt awful saying this.
The man said, "Scientific research is all about simplifying the complicated things. You can let those other fools worry about science itself. This is a geno art I created, through the theory of rock creatures. Ordinary crystallizers can practice it."
Han Sen wished to say something, but the man looked outside and the spoke again. He said, "You should leave now. The spirit is going to move. Unless you want to travel far away with me, that is."

Chapter 1909 Petrify
Han Sen started running out of the lodge. The man might be lying, but it was better to run than risking everything by remaining. If Han Sen was transported to another star system, that'd be pretty bad.
When he made it some distance away, Han Sen turned around to face the man and ask, "What is your name?"
"Left Crazy," the man answered.
Han Sen wished to ask something more, but he felt the mountain begin to shake. Without hesitation, he said goodbye and hastily departed the mountain.
Boom!
With the speed of his rabbit shoes aiding his flight, Han Sen was able to just about get off the mountain before hearing that deafening sound. The mountains all around were vibrating like mad, and when Han Sen turned back around to face where the mountain had been, he saw nothing. It was as if the mountain did not exist.
"How did that mountain move so quickly? I thought the man said that rocks were slow." Cold sweat dripped off Han Sen's forehead. It was fortunate he had moved as fast as he had. If he hadn't, he'd have been long gone.
Han Sen took a gander at the book he had been given by Left Crazy. There was no name, and it had all been written by hand.
"Petrify? That sounds so lame. It sounds like a skill that can make your skin as hard as stone," Han Sen thought, as he started to read the text.
But as he read, his expression turned to surprise. The skill was called petrify, and while the name was lame, the contents were impressive.
It was a complete geno art. From commoner to Baron, from Viscount to King, all could practice and become proficient with it. It had its own power.
Practicing Petrify did not make your body harder, though. It would just make your body closer to that of the rocky creatures. Grystallizers were like hurrmns, so they couldiVt become like rocks completely. "The higher your petrification was, the closer to the life of a rock you'd attune.
You wouldn't become completely the same as a rock, you'd only adopt some of their attributes. Petrify made humans and crystallizers petrified. It gave them the life of a rock.
Petrify couldn't make someone impervious to death, but time had more difficulty leaving its marks on petrified bodies. Thousands of years result in many humans and crystallizers dying, but to a rock, it was only a moment. It did not affect them.
Han Sen examined the requirements for bringing Petrify up to King class, if that was what he chose to do. At that point, he would have a life that was very similar to a rock's. And with a body like that, many millions of years could come and go without affecting him.
There was one significant flaw to Petrify, though. When you used it, your body really would turn to stone. You'd be unable to move because of it. And your mind would still be there, active, too. The more you practiced the skill, the closer to the life of a rock you would get.
"It sounds really cool, but it seems fairly useless. You'd only turn into a rock, and rocks aren't hard enough to provide great protection. And you can't move, either. Why would that guy bother creating this skill?" Han Sen thought to himself.
After a while, Han Sen was able to come up with a useful application for it.
"If I can practice while petrified, then time would be of no issue for me. I could just keep practicing without eating or drinking."
In that case, Petrify might be really useful. He planned to learn it, thinking it might come in handy.
Petrify was a geno art that allowed for the swapping of genes. It did not make your body better. You still needed a strength like The Story of Gene as a basis.
Han Sen thought it was a crystallizer geno art, so he used The Story of Genes to practice with it.
Han Sen found a safe cave to take refuge in, where he could practice Petrify. It was easier to learn than he expected. After casting it once, his skin started to feel rocky. Already, Han Sen could tell that he had learned the first tier of Petrify.
"Hmm, that was much easier than I thought it'd be." Han Sen then moved on to try the second tier. It was a Baron class Petrify.
Han Sen finished Baron Petrify easily, too. He kept on going, and he realized that Petrify really was exceptionally easy to learn. He only spent two days practicing with it to get it all the way up to King class.
After reaching King class, he noticed Left Crazy had not written anything more. That was likely due to the fact he had yet to reach that level. He guessed that after the King level, you could actually become petrified.
Without a skill that would teach him how to proceed, Han Sen decided to try other things.
If he became a rock and was unable to return to a human form, then his life would be over.
"Why is it like that? According to Left Crazy, you had to reach a certain level before practicing such a skill. So, why did nothing stop him from reaching King class? Is it because of The Story of Genes?" Han Sen guessed a number of things, but he wasn't sure enough to put stock in anything.
Han Sen tried using his Petrify, and he learned other geno arts could not be practiced as long as it was in use. That was because Petrify made a big change to the body. Geno arts for the human body were useless. Only The Story of Genes could run while he was in a petrified state.
"This geno art is so weird. Although it can take you to a very high level, its usefulness is practically nonexistent." Losing interest in Petrify, Han Sen decided to return to practicing with the Dongxuan Sutra.
Han Sen remained in the mountains for an entire month. He fought and practiced with his Dongxuan Sutra a great amount. Dongxuan Sutra was on the precipice of breaking through, but it had yet to do so.
There were ten days left before the red mist spring erupted. After realizing this, Han Sen decided it was time to leave the mountains and head to the spring. His Spell Geno Armament required this spring so it could become a Viscount. He couldn't afford to miss this opportunity.
Before long, Han Sen was right outside Red Mist Valley. There were hordes of xenogeneics wandering around, and it was clear they had all come there for the red mist spring, as well.
They all hung outside the valley. None of them had entered the mist yet. They were waiting for the spring to erupt.
Han Sen looked around. The xenogeneics there were Baron or Viscount. There were no higher level sorts.
Yisha told Han Sen that the red mist spring only worked for Viscounts. It would be ineffective on those of a higher level, so, there was no point in high class xenogeneics coming.

Chapter 1910 Green Ligh
Han Sen found a hidden place in Red Mist Valley. He was going to wait for the spring to burst.
He also hunted down many of the Viscount creatures that were around, in order to collect their materials and genes.
There were three or four days left now, according to the schedule Yisha had proposed. And over the course of those next few days, more and more creatures gathered. Han Sen guessed that there had to be around ten thousand in total, with most of them being Viscount. It was fortunate that no creature of a higher tier had come. If they had, Han Sen could not have guaranteed that he would be the one to benefit from the spring.
Perhaps because they were all too greedy in their desire for the spring, many of the creatures fought against each other. He had never seen so much conflict before.
As Han Sen was watching those xenogeneics fighting outside the valley, he eventually caught sight of a few xenogeneics retreating. They abandoned their position. It seemed as if something strong was coming.
"It can't be a higher class xenogeneic, can it?" Han Sen was shocked. He looked that way.
But there were too many xenogeneics there. Many were two meters tall, and they obscured Han Sen's vision. He couldn't see whatever was coming.
Han Sen looked around and stayed close to the wall. He wanted to scale it and get a better looked.
There was a dark green centipede. Each part of its body gleamed with jewel-like eyes as it skittered across the earth. Every xenogeneic in its path backed off as soon as they saw it. None dared to stay within twenty meters of the creature.
The xenogeneic was ten meters long, but it wasn't tall. Its body was only half a meter off the ground. That was why Han Sen had such difficulty trying to spot it.
Han Sen watched it for quite some time, and he didn't think it was all-that high level. It should have been no better than a Viscount, so it was weird to see the fear with which so many xenogeneics regarded it.
Quickly, the centipede xenogeneic reached the entrance of the valley. It was different from the other xenogeneics, and it crawled right into the valley.
Han Sen was shocked. Yisha said that the red mist spring was good for xenogeneics. It could speed up their evolution, but the red mist itself was harmful by comparison. Until the spring was ready, the mist remained there. So, it was most wise to avoid the mist until then.
But the centipede climbed straight into the valley, and it did so without getting harmed by the mist.
"No! I have got to find that centipede. If it is going towards the spring, it might be able to swallow it the moment it opens up. I'll lose my own opportunity!" Han Sen frowned.
He hadn't thought the centipede was going to climb down into the valley. And now that it was in there, it would be extremely difficult to find the creature. You couldn't even see your own hand in front of you, that mist was so thick. Trying to find the centipede would be difficult.
"I'll have to try. Luckily, it is just a Viscount xenogeneic. It cannot be that large of a threat." Han Sen donned his Marquise armor and the rabbit shoes. He flew past the heads of the xenogeneics and headed straight into the valley.
Just like before, the mist stifled Han Sen's senses. It was as if he was deaf and blind.
Han Sen searched through the mist, hoping to find the centipede xenogeneic.
The valley was massive, and there were still a few days to go before the spring was supposed to erupt. Han Sen thought he'd be able to find the centipede.
Han Sen walked more quickly through the mist, but he did not dare go too fast. If he ran into a rock wall and injured himself, he'd become a joke.
Due to him being unable to see, though, he tried hugging the walls as he went. Once he had canvased the area that way, he maintained a steady distance from the wall and went along them again.
After searching the place like a neatly-fitted carpet, he hadn't caught sight of the centipede. Eight hours had elapsed by now.
"That xenogeneic was rather large. It shouldn't be too difficult to find. Why am I so unlucky?" Han Sen felt depressed.
Han Sen walked into the deepest recesses of the valley, and when he reached the far wall, he wished to turn back. But that wall felt different from the others.
Han Sen kept running his hands over it, and eventually, he realized there was a space next to it. It was a cave.
Han Sen thought he was adequately protected, with the Marquise armor and the rabbit shoes, so he entered the cave.
After entering, Han Sen's eyes gleamed brightly. The red mist was gone, and he could see all that resided in the cave.
The red mist was like a fire burning behind him. It lit up the cave. The cave did not have any of the mist inside, though. All of Han Sen's senses had returned.
Han Sen looked deeper into the cave, and when he did, something made him quite happy. The giant centipede was inside there.
"Does the spring reside in this cave? No way. Yisha said the spring would have a darker mist. How can there be none at all?" Han Sen thought. He didn't stop moving, though, and he planned to get rid of the centipede, just in case.
It looked like that xenogeneic was a very sensitive creature, though. It detected Han Sen's presence quickly, and so it turned around and used its jewel-like eyes to look at him.
Boom!
As this occurred, the jewel-like eyes shone with a green light.
The green light was too bright, especially for a cave that was so small. It blinded the entire cave with that channel of light, prompting Han Sen to run forward.
"It's lucky I have this Marquise armor. A light like this looks Viscount level at the lowest," Han Sen thought to himself. He drew his Ghost Teeth Knife, and with his ice powers and blood, he cut towards the light.
Ghost Teeth Knife sliced through the green light. The light had a tangible presence, and it filled up the entire area. When it landed on Han Sen, he himself turned green.
Han Sen then realized he could no longer move. It was as if he had been stopped by a strange power. He was stuck in the same position, unable to move.
"Crap! There is something wrong with that light." Han Sen was shocked. He hastily used his power, trying to break through the light that was snaring him. He wanted his freedom back.
Han Sen fired up Jadeskin, the Blood-Pulse Sutra, the Dongxuan Sutra, and The Story of Genes, but still, he was unable to escape the green light.
The centipede-like xenogeneic, with its jewel-like eyes focused on Han Sen, continued to pound him with green light.

Chapter 1911 Sharpen
Han Sen's body could not move, and despite the fact that he still had control over his senses, he couldn't tell what element the green light was. He wasn't in a rush, though. The xenogeneic's power was amazing, but at the end of the day, it was only a Viscount. Han Sen had Marquise armor on, and that meant he had no reason to be afraid.
Plus, he had his super king spirit body to rely on. All things considered, Han Sen was feeling pretty secure.
When the centipede approached, Han Sen noticed that it was skittering around small orchid-like plants. There were no flowers atop them, but small shapes like gold rats grew from them.
No, they weren't rats. After a good look, Han Sen noticed it was something quite familiar. The things growing on the plants were very small Red Mist Minks.
There were seven of them, and their eyes all looked so big. They looked very spiritual, but even so, they all vibrated together in fear. Because their tails were grown into the plants, they could not run. They all looked so scared as they stared at the centipede.
Now, Han Sen knew that the centipede had come for the red mist spring. It had come for the minks. What Han Sen didn't know was who the creature was going to attack first.
The centipede quickly skittered up to Han Sen with its blade-like claws. It attacked Han Sen, making repeated ding dong noises. The claws were unable to break Han Sen's armor, but they left marks on its surface. That was very impressive for a Viscount class pair of claws.
The Viscount xenogeneic should have found it impossible to damage a Marquise armor.
This xenogeneic is a bit creepy." But even so, Han Sen still felt safe. It was creepy, yes, but it could not harm him.
The centipede wreathed itself around Han Sen, trapping him in the grip of its body. Its feet were also like blades, and they kept scrabbling against him.
Fortunately, only a few white scratch marks were left on the armor. The attacks still couldn't damage him.
The creature did not have a mouth, and its head was very flat. It had two long beard-strands, too. Aside from the claws and the blade-like legs, there was no other way for it to attack Han Sen.
It kept slashing Han Sen for quite some time, but it was unable to hurt him. The centipede eventually gave up. It climbed over to the plants that were growing minks, instead.
It circled the minks, but it did not seem to hurt them.
But the minks were still frightened. They were shaking in fear.
"What is it trying to do?" Han Sen was confused, and so he resumed trying to break through the green light.
Jadeskin, his mutant blood, and The Story of Genes were all useless. When he cast his Dongxuan Sutra, he could sense something from the light. But it was just Baron class, and one level lower than the green light. He could not get it to break through.
Han Sen kept using his Dongxuan Sutra to battle the green light. He also watched the xenogeneic. He was interested in learning what it was up to.
As he fought the green light, Dongxuan Sutra's power flowed through him like it always did. But Han Sen felt as if the power was changing slightly. He felt as if he was on the precipice of breaking through.
Han Sen was so happy about this, seeing as he had used the Dongxuan Sutra to fight against the green light. He wanted the green light to sharpen the Dongxuan Sutra, and perhaps prompt a level-up.
Right now, the most effective thing about the Dongxuan Sutra was the Dongxuan Aura. Han Sen did not have the power to unleash Dongxuan Sutra-fueled skills. If he made it reach Viscount, he could cast attacks with the Dongxuan Sutra. Han Sen had been waiting for this moment for a very long time.
Han Sen kept using his Dongxuan Sutra to fight the green light, but it was one level lower. The power was being used up very quickly.
Han Sen could only take very minor breaks. Whenever he regained some of his power, he'd get right back into fighting.
After two hours of this, the cave was shining with red light. Some of the mist had drifted into the cave like a river. The entire cave was full of this red mist now.
As Han Sen wondered why the red mist was coming in, he realized that the red mist in the cave had begun reducing.
The red mist was flowing as if it was being blown away by a fan. It didn't exit the cave, though. So, Han Sen had a peep at where the red mist was going. It was seeping into the plants with the red minks.
After half an hour, the red mist had become very thin. It no longer hindered Han Sen's senses.
The plants that absorbed the mist were releasing a light. Especially the seven small minks. They looked so shiny, like little treasures. They looked very golden.
After the mist was absorbed by the plants, no more mist entered the cave. The shiny look on the plants and the minks began to dull.
Han Sen took a closer look, and he noticed that the fur of the minks was much fuller. Their eyes were brighter, too, and their lifeforce had grown stronger.
"That centipede must be waiting for the minks to grow. I wonder how much longer this might take?" Now Han Sen knew just what that xenogeneic wanted.
Han Sen kept using the Dongxuan Sutra to battle the green light. Every time Han Sen used up all his power in combat with the green light, his powers grew stronger as they recovered. It was a process that delighted him.
After a while, the mist entered the cave again. Just like last time, the plants absorbed it. And then, the minks grew bigger.
The third time the mist was absorbed, the mist was absorbed by the Red Mist Minks themselves. Han Sen's body then moved. He lowered his Ghost Teeth Knife, which he had been holding in the air.
Han Sen could not break through the binding of the green light, but the Dongxuan Sutra's power was starting to work. And he knew this because he could now move his body a minute amount.
The centipede sensed his movement, though. It turned around and shone many of its eyes at Han Sen. It increased the power of the chains it had locked around Han Sen, prohibiting him from moving any more.
The xenogeneic had not been able to hurt Han Sen, and he didn't consider it much of a threat. So, Han Sen kept using the green light to practice with the Dongxuan Sutra. And over time, he developed a resistance to the green light.
On the twenty-third time the mist started pouring into the cave, the plants' light was growing again. They were becoming brighter than the red mist. Amidst that heavy fog, the outlines of the plants were visible, shining brightly. The seven plants each had a Red Mist Mink growing on them.

Chapter 1912 This Is Unique
On a planet of Narrow Moon, a Rebate mother was praying sincerely.
"God of the Rebate, please allow my child to evolve a second time, despite having already generated armor. I will give everything I have for this." The mother's face looked so sad.
She was Jade Duke's wife. She had a son with Jade Duke. Both of their genes were exceptional, and their child should have absolutely become a Noble. But when her son generated a geno armor a few days ago, he did not evolve a second time. He became a commoner.
Even for a Duke, it was difficult to gather items to allow a second chance to evolve. Jade Duke didn't have what was required. So, the son's mother prayed to God, hoping for a miracle. They wanted him to evolve a second time, so they would not be laughed at.
Your sincerity has touched God. I can satisfy your wishes." A god with gold-clothing appeared before the lady. It smiled strangely at her.
The news of Planet Eclipse possessing a red mist spring had spread, and the reports sounded true.
But without Knife Queen's permission, no one was allowed to go to Planet Eclipse to find that spring. Despite that, the Narrow Moon factions kept pushing. Moon Wheel King gathered a few Kings together for a meeting in Full Moon. Knife Queen was present there, too.
"Knife, does Planet Eclipse have a red mist spring?" Night River King asked. He had a child that had not evolved a second time, as well.
"Yes," Knife Queen said.
"Why did you not tell us sooner? We cannot allow Han Sen to lay claim to that treasure." Night River King looked very angry.
It wasn't just Night River King feeling this way, either. The other Kings were all peeved, too. Their children, and the people who followed them, needed the spring, too. The Kings were here to represent all those who needed it.
Yisha coldly looked at Night River King and said, "Han Sen is my student. And don't forget that you were the one to give him Planet Eclipse, as a slight. Do you think you can just break the Narrow Moon laws to suit yourself?"
Night River King coughed and kept going. "We cannot break our laws, no. But Han Sen is still a suspicious individual. If we provide him this treasure and then discover he is a spy, we will suffer a grand loss. Don't you all agree?"
Yes. We shouldn't allow an outsider to receive such a treasure," Flower King said.
Aside from Black-Moon King, all the other Kings shared the same opinion.
"Knife, we don't know how much is stored in that spring. If it isn't much, then it is fine. If it is a lot, we cannot allow a suspicious outsider to lay claim to it. Why don't we send someone to inspect how much is stored there? Then, we can fairly share the contents of the spring. We can save some for Han Sen. Does that suggestion not satisfy all our desires?" Moon Wheel King said.
This time, many of the other Kings agreed. They weren't greedy about the spring. The pressure was merely coming from their family members and other bad relationships.
"Han Sen is my student, and Planet Eclipse is bound to him legally." Yisha spoke with an absence of emotion.
"Knife, why are you being so stubborn? He is just an outsider. And he is suspicious." Night River King looked glum. He went on to say, "If you absolutely insist on this stance, then we'll take it to a vote. You know what will happen after that."
Yisha looked at all of them and said, "Fine. You want the red mist spring so badly? You can bring ten members. No one above Viscount is allowed. How much they can claim will depend entirely on them. That is my bottom line on this matter."
"Okay, deal," Night River King agreed, and the other Kings did not have an opinion.
After Night River King returned to his planet, he rounded up the ten best Viscounts he could. He ordered them to collect as much of the red mist spring as they could.
"Sword Know, you can stay; I wish to talk with you," Night River King said to a Viscount with a bird head and a human body.
Yes, My King?" Sword Know's beady hawk eyes looked right at him when he spoke.
Night River King gave Sword Know a box and said, 'You only need half a step to become Earl. This is a spirit orb that I have saved. With this orb, you should be able to become an Earl. Take it to Planet Eclipse and make yourself an Earl there. And of course, try to grab as much of the spring water as you can."
"Yes, My King. I will not disappoint you." Sword Know accepted the spirit orb and looked pleased. He thanked Night River King.
With his skill, he only needed a spirit orb to become an Earl. There was no chance of him failing this. This saved him years of practicing.
All the factions sent their Viscounts to Planet Eclipse. A big battleship was headed straight for Mirror Lake.
"Narrow Moon is still not my Narrow Moon." Inside the palace, Yisha watched the monitor with a gloomy look. She looked totally cold.
Han Sen was her student, and these people were going to steal and split up his spring. It made her incredibly angry.
She had done everything she could to prevent this, but if she had stubbornly forced them to take a vote, the end result would have been far worse. No one would take her corner.
"Deified… I need to be deified to be the absolute queen of the Rebate!" Yisha closed her eyes. The power inside her rumbled like thunder; it could have swallowed the skies.
Even as strong as Yisha was, she couldn't do anything right now. She wanted more power.
Inside the cave in the the Red Mist Valley, the red mist was sucked into a vortex. Then, it disappeared. It went into the plants.
The three little minks were like treasures. Their bodies were glowing so much, it was difficult to look at them directly.
The centipede was moving quickly towards the plants. It extended its head, cracked open its mouth, and tried to swallow one of the minks.
The glowing mink tried to run away in terror, but its tail was attached to the plant and it could not run.
