Chapter 467

The enemies have fled, and no other enemies have appeared for now.

Xiao Feng flew out from the Flame Lord's palm, wandered around the mountain, and picked up the items dropped by the three slain Upper Gods.

He discovered that the drop rules for killing enemies in Shen Jie have also changed.

In Zhu Shen Da Lu, killing monsters directly drops gold coins and items all over the ground.

Here, however, there is only a single godhead and a tiny bag.

【Loot Bag】: Contains part of the relics of "Funi".

Aside from the godhead, everything else is already packed together, saving the trouble of picking them up one by one.

But when Xiao Feng opened it, he found the contents pitifully few.

Only one mid-grade divine artifact, two low-grade divine artifacts, plus over 300 divine power crystals.

"So poor?"

An Upper God actually has only this much wealth—pitifully poor.

Looking again at the loot bag's description, the conspicuous word "part" left Xiao Feng speechless.

An Upper God couldn't possibly be that poor; it seems the system swallowed a portion.

But it makes sense—if players could obtain all a god's wealth by slaying them, surely someone would organize teams to hunt god-level NPCs everywhere.

Over time, the entire Shen Jie might end up being emptied out.

By moderately lowering rewards, making high difficulty yield low returns, fewer people would obsess over god-slaying, and more effort would go into "treasure hunting" and "civil war".

From the three loot bags came a total of one top-grade divine artifact, three mid-grade divine artifacts, and five low-grade divine artifacts.

The divine power crystals added up to 1,300—not many, but not few either.

Mainly, the three Upper Gods' godheads are enough for him to cultivate for a long time.

After gathering everything, Xiao Feng took He Er Na and hid deep in the dense forest.

This forest is an uninhabited area of Shen Jie, very open and very primitive.

As long as they don't leak their aura, they are generally not discovered.

He did not hide near the battlefield but instead went farther away to avoid being searched out.

Battlegrounds also gradually get repaired by the system over time, and traces disappear after a while.

He Er Na's process of merging with the primary divine artifact took a while; only after nearly half an hour did her aura gradually stabilize.

During that time, two figures of War God Nation powerhouses appeared in the sky; Xiao Feng noticed them early, had He Er Na suppress her aura, and they were not detected.

"I never expected the Upper Gods of the War God Nation to be so treacherous, sending three waves to hunt us." After her pain eased, He Er Na sighed with some regret.

Xiao Feng said indifferently, "You yourself said the Elemental Sea is extremely dangerous, with gods each more ruthless than the last. The War God Nation is merely a bit stronger in the Elemental Sea, not transcendent—how could it lack wicked people?"

He easily accepts the setting that NPCs are enemies, since in his gaming experience he has slain countless NPCs and monsters, even divine envoys, so there's nothing surprising about it.

In his eyes, the 24 God Nations were never allies, but targets to challenge—and even overturn entirely!

The current situation is merely that the enemies arrived a bit faster, with a touch of treachery.

"I don't know whether they acted out of greed for the primary divine artifact, or at the behest of the War God Nation's lord, or the orders of those two hegemon-level powerhouses." He Er Na said.

Xiao Feng kept his indifferent tone, replying, "Who cares? Anyway, whoever came are enemies."

"Will you still go to the War Capital, Master? The War Horn… what do you plan to do with it?" He Er Na asked him.

Xiao Feng smiled, "I will definitely go, but not now. I need to become stronger, achieve godhood soon, equip stronger divine artifacts, then sweep all directions. As for the horn… let's keep it for now."

Although a demigod is already strong, he feels it's still not enough.

Gods have 90% damage reduction against him, which is aggravating; it makes him, accustomed to instantly killing everything, very unhappy.

However, the journey from level 263 to 300 is still far; it can't be rushed.

He Er Na, upon hearing that, said, "Then let's go to Wind Spirit Island; I promised to give you all the godheads there. Moreover, I have many subordinates I can command; there you can cultivate in peace, and with that book's secret refining method, your speed will surely increase!"

"Yeah, once we settle things here we can go." Xiao Feng nodded.

Wind Spirit Island is definitely going to be visited, and we won't wait too long.

But he still needs to get rid of the "tail" first; otherwise, taking a bunch of War God Nation assassins to Wind Spirit Island would only harm He Er Na's subordinates.

"Speaking of which… do you feel upset inside?" Xiao Feng suddenly asked.

"Huh? Upset about what?" He Er Na asked, puzzled, not knowing what he meant.

Xiao Feng said, "It's about your Wind Spirit Island belongings. I said I wouldn't set you free—are you still willing to give those things to me?"

"This…"

He Er Na lowered her head, unsure whether she was bitterly smiling or shy, and replied, "The contract comes above all. You are my master; no matter what you do or take, I will not feel anything wrong…"

"You really won't feel angry at all inside?" Xiao Feng asked with a smile.

"Perhaps… a little."

He Er Na wasn't certain, sighing, "If you set me free, I might become angry over recent events and oppose you. But I can't bring myself to hate you now; instead, because you borrowed my primary divine artifact, I am delighted, wanting only to fight for you and give everything, even my life."

This is the terror of the master-servant contract.

Xiao Feng couldn't help but feel moved.

Without this contract, that aloof goddess would never allow herself to be exploited and bullied.

He is now somewhat taking advantage of her vulnerability.

But there's really nothing to feel guilty about.

People, after all, are definitely selfish.

He is no saint, so some greed is inevitable.

"Feeling better?" he asked.

"Yeah, the fusion is complete; I feel great now." He Er Na replied.

Saying that, she moved her thoughts, and the armguard on her wrist automatically retracted, restoring her originally tender white skin.

How do you feel? Does this main divine artifact have a big influence on you?

He Er Na replied, "Very strong, indescribably strong. I feel I am now stronger than my previous peak by more than half, already comparable to some peak Upper Gods."

The main divine artifact provided a large amount of attributes; her HP surged by 1.2 billion, reaching 8 billion, and her divine origin power also reached 300,000.

Overall strength, compared to when we first met, has increased by nearly 1 times.

Furthermore, the passive effect of the main divine artifact will also make her grow stronger and stronger!

Let's go out for a stroll; if anyone else comes, we'll eat them all!

Xiao Feng looked at her attributes and said satisfiedly.

"Hmm, this time I will definitely not drag the master down again!" He Er Na was eager to try; after getting the new equipment, she also really wanted to have a big battle.

The two flew out of the jungle and shot straight up.

The previously restrained aura was no longer concealed; it was fully released, arrogantly sweeping across the sky, leisurely flying off into the distance.

Not long after, several figures quickly gave chase.

Xiao Feng looked from afar and couldn't help but laugh.

These powerhouses are all drama queens; just now in the Holy Hall they spoke so sincerely, but the moment they turned around, they personally came to chase and kill us.

He Er Na furrowed her brows slightly: "I didn't expect it to really be the king-conferring strong one causing trouble. He is a top-tier Upper God; I'm not very confident. Master, I'll create an opportunity soon, you kill him."

"Hmm." Xiao Feng nodded.

This time it's no one else; it's exactly the Overlord Blaze King who, just now in the War Holy Hall, said he would confer kingship on him—Wumu!
