Chapter 355: Martial Saint Realm Third Level — I'll Farm You Like a Dungeon

Two days later.

The land outside Heaven-Reaching City was a mess, spiderweb-like cracks covered the earth, each gorge several kilometers deep—this was the disturbance caused by Shen Qing's breakthrough.

Shen Qing's cultivation had reached the third level of the Martial Saint Realm.

Shen Qing sat still, quietly sensing the changes brought by the breakthrough, as well as his insights into the Stealing Heaven Changing Sun Technique.

Suddenly, a thread of cause-and-effect power stirred in Shen Qing's left palm; he followed the cause-and-effect line to investigate and found it was the one he had left in the Far North.

Shen Qing's eyes flickered with a smile; he had been worrying about lacking a sandbag, but it seemed one had been delivered to his door.

Shen Qing strode toward the direction of the Realm Battlefield Passage; this teleportation gate had been sealed with destructive power, so opening it naturally required destructive power as well.

Before, the destructive power wasn't quite enough, but after killing so many evil gods over this period, it finally sufficed.

Just then, the Martial Emperor came to Shen Qing's side: "Shen Qing, where are you going?"

"Someone touched the cause-and-effect power I left in the Far North."

"I only told Zhang Dao Yi and Wu Nian about the location of that cause-and-effect line, and I instructed them to touch it only in an emergency."

The Martial Emperor narrowed his eyes: "It looks like someone ate too many red beans again, but what could possibly drive them to this state?"

While they were speaking, they had already arrived at the entrance of the Realm Battlefield Passage.

"I'm not sure either, but we'll know once we go back and check."

Shen Qing raised his right hand; destructive power surged toward the teleportation gate, and in an instant the gate burst with ripples as the surrounding void began to collapse.

Immediately, the surrounding void also began to collapse—this was the third-layer world hidden beneath the void stratum.

But soon the collapse ceased, this layer of void began to stabilize, the third-layer world stopped fluctuating, and the teleportation passage came to rest firmly in the interlayer between the void stratum and the third-layer world.

Shen Qing withdrew his destructive power and strode into the teleportation passage.

Meanwhile, outside the teleportation passage, Wu Nian and Zhang Dao Yi had already encountered several Dark Elf Demon Saints.

"Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon!"

Wu Nian gathered golden elemental energy and struck with a palm, sending a Demon Saint flying back several hundred meters, blood trickling from the corner of its mouth.

Zhang Dao Yi's Yin-Yang Domain kept expanding; dozens of flying swords left trails of sword qi in the air, leaving the two Demon Saints gasping for breath.

"Wu Nian! Are you alright?"

Wu Nian shook his head: "These creatures are strange; they wield an odd power that's decent, but their bodies are too weak."

At that moment, a fifth-level Demon Saint Dark Elf came galloping forward, speaking halting Great Martial Speech: "You two Demon Saints, surrender your resistance!"

"You have no way to stop us."

Zhang Dao Yi glanced at the Dark Elf: "Do you speak Great Martial Speech?"

The Dark Elf's face showed a proud expression: "We are the noble Elf Clan, possessing the power of knowledge."

"Your Great Martial Speech is indeed hard to learn, but for us it's not too..."

Before the words finished, a golden Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon surged toward the Dark Elf's face.

Wu Nian, having followed Shen Qing all along, could pull off a zero-frame startup move with ease.

The Dark Elf was blasted over a hundred meters away, blood spraying from its mouth as it roared after its defenses were broken.

"Don't you lot talk about something called martial virtue? Why aren't you speaking it?"

"You really pissed me off!"

Zhang Dao Yi couldn't hold back a laugh, turned to Wu Nian, and said: "Get ready to retreat; this old thing's realm is higher than ours."

Wu Nian nodded.

That Dark Elf shot up into the sky, chanting a spell as magical power surged.

"You think you can leave after hitting me? That's wishful thinking!"

Wu Nian and Zhang Dao Yi exchanged a glance and prepared to flee.

But just then, an anomaly erupted: the previously closed Realm Battlefield Teleportation Passage began to tremble, wind and snow started to fall, the purple void shattered, and the area quickly calmed.

A teleportation gate was completed, and a blurry figure appeared within it.

Wu Nian and Zhang Dao Yi looked at the familiar figure, and smiles spread across their faces.

Zhang Dao Yi exhaled in relief: "Looks like we don't need to run."

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Dark Elves remained rooted in place.

Shen Qing's lazy voice rang out: "Looks like as soon as I arrive, there's a big show to watch."

Shen Qing leisurely walked out of the teleportation gate, smiling at Zhang Dao Yi and Wu Nian.

Zhang Dao Yi exhaled, then dispelled his Yin-Yang Domain: "Cut the cool talk; I don't know where these weird things came from, but if you don't show up, Wu Nian and I will have to flee with our tails between our legs."

Their casual conversation ended up enraging the fifth-level Demon Saint Dark Elf, which let out a low growl.

"Hey, aren't you being too full of yourselves? A mere second-level Demon Saint Realm is all you've got to brag about?"

Suddenly, a phantom flickered before the Dark Elf, and Shen Qing appeared before it, landing a hook punch straight into its abdomen.

"Bang!"

It was blasted straight through, leaving a bloody hole.

At the same time, the surroundings erupted with several terrifying blade lights, slicing the Dark Elves that had just been besieging Wu Nian and Zhang Dao Yi into pieces.

【Congratulations on slaying the Martial Saint Realm Dark Elf; successfully looted trait: Magical Body (Golden)】

At the same time, several streams of vital power surged into Shen Qing's body, traveling up his arm to settle at his heart.

Shen Qing could feel a surge of vital power—a new supreme force—and he immediately knew its name: Life Force.

Earlier, when entering the Evil Clan World's teleportation passage, Shen Qing had sensed this supreme power.

So it's clear: these elves are the living beings beneath the Life Force's heavenly dao.

The Dark Elf bent over, clutching its abdomen, but the blood wouldn't stop, and its pupils kept dilating.

He couldn't even make out Shen Qing's speed.

Shen Qing furrowed their brows: "Is the physical body this weak? I didn't even exert myself."

The Dark Elf spoke word by word: "What a joke."

Shen Qing grabbed the Dark Elf's long ears and directly lifted him up whole: "Whether you believe it or not, come answer my question."

"Where is your teleportation portal passage?"

The Dark Elf's face turned ferocious: "I won't tell you."

Rip!

The Dark Elf's long ears were directly and violently torn off; elves differ from humans, their ears being the most sensitive organ on their body, and the pain of having their ears ripped off is at least ten times that of humans.

"Ah!!!"

He had just opened his mouth to shout.

The ripping sound rang out again, and his other ear was also pulled off by Shen Qing.

"I give up! I'll talk, I'll talk!"

Actually, the Dark Elf had wanted to speak when Shen Qing tore off the first ear, but it was too painful, so he couldn't get it out.

"Our teleportation portal is built on a snowy field in the south."

"That snowy field must be the extreme southern lands."

Shen Qing continued to ask: "Then who is your strongest, and how many are there?"

"Our strongest is our king, Angelos! He is at the fifth level of the Demon God Realm."

Shen Qing didn't speak, just silently listening; after a long while, the Dark Elf still didn't speak.

Shen Qing, somewhat dissatisfied, punched the Dark Elf: "And the others?"

The Dark Elf felt somewhat wronged: "Just one! Our other Demon Gods all died in the previous evil race invasion."

Shen Qing laughed angrily: "So you dare invade our world with just one Earthly Immortal?"

"This feeling is like the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu fighting, with other small states coming to invade."

"They were directly treated as a dungeon to be farmed by the three kingdoms."

"Now humans and evil spirits together have nearly a hundred Earthly Immortals fighting, and the battle is so intense it's throwing off sparks."

"You elves, with just one Earthly Immortal, dare to get involved?"

"Isn't that just causing trouble?"
