East Sea, Heijue Domain Field.
Along the coastline.
Dawn gradually broke.
The campfire had died down, but embers still smoldered in the ashes, wisps of white smoke curling upward.
After Feng Qi's hearty feast, only the skeleton of the sea beast remained on the grill.
He lay flat on the white sand, his gaze fixed on the azure sky.
After a long while, he flipped over and sprang to his feet, his eyes turning toward the dense rainforest.
Although he had already obtained the Miracle Bracelet, completing his mission in the Heijue Domain Field, his next step was simply to return it to the Scarlet Research Institute and have them craft a divine statue.
Once the statue was made, his Sacrifice Line self could worship it, establishing a spiritual connection with him through faith.
However, during his battle with the humanoid leader, his "Nightmare" ability had extracted fragments of the leader's memories.
One fragment depicted the humanoid leader's own attempt to create a divine statue.
Feng Qi wondered if he should revisit the humanoid camp to search for that statue and bring it back to the Scarlet Research Institute for research.
This might help with his plan to create a divine statue later.
Now that the humanoid leader was dead, although there were still many warriors in the Humanoid Territory, as long as he remained in his Blood Source Form, no number of humanoid warriors could breach his defenses.
He had no need to worry about his safety.
That's a good idea. In the previous timeline, you and Old Mist only managed to grasp some of the principles behind creating a divine statue, but you never put them into practice. It would be more reliable to simply bring back a finished statue for study.
Hearing the Narrator's analysis, Feng Qi nodded.
"Then I'll leave the task of finding the divine statue to you."
Refused!
He understood the Narrator well by now.
It always refused verbally, but when it came to getting things done, it was always reliable.
With this thought, a smile appeared on his face as he stepped into the rainforest.
After a night's rest, his condition had fully recovered.
Hunting sea beasts had replenished his depleted qi blood, and he was now fully capable of storming the humanoid stronghold.
Entering the dense rainforest, he began to advance along the route he remembered.
This time, he didn't need the Narrator's guidance; the path ahead was clear.
While pursuing the humanoid leader, he left behind a trail of deep footprints and crashed through the dense rainforest, snapping countless trees in his wake.
By following these tracks, he could easily return to the humanoid camp.
After considerable effort, he emerged from the dense rainforest to find the familiar waterfall and lake, with the humanoid stronghold nestled beside it.
The stronghold was a hive of activity, with numerous figures carrying tools and scurrying about, repairing the damaged structures.
Taking a deep breath, he leaped forward, charging back into the humanoid camp.
His sudden appearance quickly drew the attention of a humanoid warrior on guard duty, who immediately blew its horn.
Watching the humanoid warriors converging on the stronghold's entrance, Feng Qi felt no fear.
The Blood Source Form activated.
He gradually accelerated his sprint, and as he neared the camp's gate, he launched himself into the air. His body arced through the sky before crashing heavily into the camp.
At that moment, the Narrator's voice echoed in his mind:
The largest wooden hut at the 10 o'clock position—that's where the humanoid leader keeps the divine statue he crafted for himself!
He turned his head toward the ten o'clock direction.
As his gaze swept across the area, he locked onto the largest wooden structure.
With a sudden burst of power from his legs, the ground beneath him cratered as he launched himself toward the wooden building like a cannonball.
He covered the hundred-meter distance in mere strides.
His body slammed violently into the wooden structure.
Though made of wood, the materials used to construct the hut were spiritual materials from the rainforest, their hardness rivaling that of ordinary steel.
Yet against Feng Qi's superhuman physical strength, they proved utterly defenseless.
Inside the hut, he found a vast array of sacrificial vessels neatly arranged. Many still bore traces of blood, filling the air with a nauseating stench.
In addition to the vessels, the room was adorned with numerous taxidermied animal heads.
Displayed like trophies, each head bore a unique warrior's mark carved into its forehead, seemingly used to identify the hunter who had claimed it.
This suggested that each animal had been extraordinary, worthy of being hung here as a symbol of honor.
After scanning the area, his gaze locked onto a divine statue nearby.
The statue, roughly half a meter tall, was carved from jade. Upon closer inspection, it bore a faint resemblance to the humanoid leader, though the facial features were not clearly defined.
Without needing the Narrator's prompting, he knew this statue was his objective.
He stepped forward and lifted the statue.
Despite its modest height, the jade's density made it surprisingly heavy.
But in his Blood Source Form, the statue's weight was negligible.
Without needing to gather momentum, he effortlessly hoisted the jade statue onto his shoulder.
As he turned, he saw a large group of humanoid warriors had surrounded his escape route.
Calculating the remaining time in his Blood Source Form, he decided to have some fun with these warriors before leaving.
Every humanoid warrior he killed now would reduce the danger Future People would face when exploring the Heijue Domain Field.
He felt no remorse in hunting these warriors.
He charged forward like a raging bull, his left hand swinging like the Grim Reaper's scythe. Each strike sent nearby humanoid warriors flying, spitting blood as they died.
Against absolute power, offense was the best defense.
With brutal efficiency, Feng Qi carved a path through the sacrificial structures, slaughtering his way to the very gates of the Humanoid Territory before leaping away.
He left behind only the receding crimson silhouette of his back for the humanoid warriors to see.
This figure would haunt their dreams for years to come: hellfire, a blood-red silhouette, a ferocious visage, and unmatched power... This figure became a dark shadow in the hearts of the humanoid warriors.
Feng Qi moved swiftly through the rainforest, sprinting at full speed while the blood source state still coursed through him.
Guided by the Narrator, he raced toward the coast where he had first landed on the island.
The Blood Source Form dissipated after four minutes, reverting him to his Battle Body Form.
But Feng Qi didn't slow down.
Along the way, he hacked through vines to tightly bind the divine statue to his back, then shifted his backpack to his chest, freeing his hands to deal with any dangers that might arise.
Finally, after several hours, he heard the rhythmic crashing of waves against the shore.
Parting the dense foliage, he saw the familiar beach stretching before him.
As he stepped onto the sand, the sea breeze brushed his face. He looked up at the azure sky, its boundless expanse mirroring his own buoyant mood.
Though the process of obtaining the Miracle Bracelet had its minor setbacks, the overall operation had proceeded remarkably smoothly.
The main reason was that he hadn't expected the humanoid leader's current strength to be so far below what it had been in the Sacrifice Line, where he had easily killed it.
The leader hadn't even been able to unleash the Curse of Death, which had once given even the Lord of the Mist a headache.
Even if it had, you wouldn't have been afraid. After all, you have the magic immunity ability "Purple Soul" to protect you. Most of the damage would have been nullified.
Feng Qi grinned. This was precisely one of the reasons he dared to come alone.
With the Purple Soul shielding him, any energy-based attack would be significantly weakened. Combined with his powerful self-healing ability, the Curse of Death was nothing to fear.
