He threw the stone statue domain creature in his hand to the side and continued walking along the dilapidated street towards the area where he first encountered Three Tails in his memory.
He looked up at the sky.
He realized that Lin Ran and Blackie’s battle was still ongoing.
At this moment, the black fog in the sky was like a sea of smoke, undulating and ethereal under the glow of the blood moon. One could clearly see a figure constantly colliding with the black fog in an attempt to escape the blockade. However, this resistance was clearly useless.
If he had the terrifying physical strength of Suction Cup, he might be able to break free from the black fog.
The owner of the fog, a domain creature that was inclined towards spells, was not strong in terms of physical strength. It could not break through Blackie’s seal with just physical collision.
At this moment, it was even more impossible to cast a spell to break through the black fog because any form of energy would only become nourishment for Blackie.
It could be said that Blackie’s ability was the nemesis of the owner of the fog. Seeing this, Feng Qi sighed in his heart and quickened his pace.
He didn’t know how long Lin Ran could last.
Taking advantage of the time, he decided to continue searching for Three Tails and kill domain creatures that could increase the strength of his body along the way.
Along the way, he saw a familiar fire elemental figure.
In Feng Qi’s eyes, this domain creature was one of the strongest domain creatures in the abandoned city area.
Its high-temperature flames could instantly melt opponents.
Back then, the blood-colored eye became half-dead merely after some sparks splattered on it. He even took advantage of this and obtained the innate ability Evil Thoughts, after killing it.
His second encounter with the fire elemental life form was an assassination attempt in the reality timeline. He died at the age of 17, setting a “record”. In order to be able to fight against the domain assassin after returning to reality, he chose to spend the rest of his time improving his strength after checking his personal information.
During this period, he led the goat-headed demons around the abandoned city and encountered the fire elemental life form for the second time.
In the end, after a short encounter, a goat-headed demon following him was instantly melted.
At that time, he, who was preparing to hunt the fire elemental life form, instantly gave up.
He felt that with his ability, he was simply sending himself to his death by playing close combat with the fire elemental life form.
However, the situation this time was different.
Although his ability was still close combat, he had obtained an innate ability to resist elemental energy, “Rune”.
This talent ability was obtained after he killed the “rock mountain” in the abandoned city near the eastern plains.
The purple patterns on his body only appeared after he obtained Purple Soul. This innate ability allowed him to avoid a portion of the damage when facing elemental energy attacks.
The specific effect depended on the strength of the elemental damage. Moreover, it was an innate ability that could grow and become stronger with his physique.
At this thought, he immediately asked,
Narrator, what are my chances against it?”
[It’s hard to say. After obtaining the innate ability that can protect you from part of the energy damage, your resistance to fire damage should have increased greatly. However, we don’t know how much damage you can be immune to and the upper limit of the immunity, so we can’t evaluate your exact win rate.]
Hearing this, Feng Qi let go of the killing intent in his heart.
He still had time now. He could completely hunt other domain creatures. There was no need to fight to the death with the fire elemental life form.
Therefore, he ignored the life form in the distance and continued to walk towards the area where he first encountered Three Tails.
After leaving the territory of the fire elemental life form, his muscle tissue began to dissipate, finally turning into blood-colored fog that dissipated with the wind.
After the Blood Source state ended, he switched back to his combat body form.
A sense of weakness arose spontaneously.
After a short period of self-regulation, he quickly adapted to the difference brought about by the change in his body’s strength.
This self-regulation ability was comprehended by him during the arduous training at the Scarlet Research Institute in this sacrificial timeline.
Back then, when he had just fused with the Demon Dragon Rune Crystal, his strength would change every day.
This also caused him to be unable to control his body normally and he often used too much strength.
In order to adapt to the changes after every increase in strength as soon as possible, he had trained hard for a period of time to adjust his ability.
After reading all the memories of the sacrifice timeline, the abilities he learned were also inherited.
On the way to his target, he kept sizing up the situation around him.
This dilapidated abandoned city had clearly become the nest of many domain creatures. There were figures of domain creatures everywhere.
On the streets along the way, the remains of the domain creatures that had been eaten could be seen from time to time.
Crossing the block in front of him, what appeared in front of him were vines that spread and grew like spiderwebs.
These purple vines were as thick as a forearm and were slowly squirming and pulsing like blood vessels.
They covered an entire street ahead. Even the walls of the residences and shops on both sides were covered in purple vines.
Feng Qi looked in the direction of the purple vines and saw a purple egg that was connected to all the vines.
It was also beating gently.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that there was liquid flowing in the purple vines that were connected to it. In the end, they all flowed into the huge egg-
Feng Qi was no stranger to the vines in this street area. After all, this was not the first time he had seen them.
As for whether he could defeat these vines, he was not confident.
At this thought, he asked.
“Narrator, what are my chances?”
[It’s not easy to estimate. I sense many life auras in this area, but if we compare the life in the egg to you, your blood essence strength is several times stronger.]
Hearing this, Feng Qi was eager to give it a try.
Now that the blood and Qi in his body had been exhausted after using the Blood Source ability, he urgently needed to replenish them to shorten the cooldown time of the blood source.
However, just as it was about to attack the purple vines, the narrator’s voice of suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Look in the 3 o’clock direction.]
Hearing the shouts of the narrator, he did not hesitate and immediately looked in the direction of 3 o’clock.
However, there was only a vast land there. Further away were dilapidated buildings. There was nothing else.
[Look up.]
Following the narrator’s hint, he looked at the top of the distant building and immediately discovered a familiar figure.
Three Tails, which looked like a cat, was lying at the top of the tall building, wagging its tails. It was holding a bunch of plants that resembled grapes in its mouth. At this moment, it was looking up at Blackie and Lin Ran, who were fighting in the sky.
It even ate a “grape” from time to time,
entirely like a bystander.
After confirming that his target was Three Tails, Feng Qi decisively gave up on the idea of hunting the purple vines.
Compared to the purple vines, Three Tails was clearly more important.
Even though Three Tails was agile and extremely difficult to catch, he still wanted to try again..
