Chapter 32: Brothers!
"Qin Yi be careful!" Wu Peng and others saw it, rushed forward, wanting to help Qin Yi.
"Pan Yan Wei Long!" Qin Yi let out a loud roar, leaping high into the air, and striking down with his fist.
Half of the air flow condensed into a door-sized board, with a loud crash, like rolling thunder, fiercely striking the fish's head.
The fisherman's head exploded into a pulp, fresh blood staining the water red, his massive body crashing to the ground, smashing out a deep pit, and after two convulsions, he lay still.
Wu Peng and others arrived just in time to see Qin Yi kill a fishman with one punch, their eyes wide with shock.
The action was concise and didn't drag on at all. Especially the tyrannical aura released by Qin Yi's punch made people surrender.
Wu Peng walked up to the exploded fish head, and with his sword, stirred the meat sauce. The sword tip lifted a small crystal, about the size of a thumb nail cover, bright red like carnelian, which flew into his palm.
The crystal contained a hint of evil aura, with a faint red light moving inside.
"Now we're still on the outskirts of Misty Bay, and the fish people that appear here aren't very strong. This demon core is probably going to need five or six more to be exchanged for some merit points." Wu Peng observed the demon core, then looked up at Qin Yi.
"Alright, put away your demonic core for now. Let's continue heading deeper." Qin Yi nodded and walked forward first.
On this road, Qin Yi is leading the way ahead. Within a radius of 300 steps, as long as the fish people enter, they will be immediately discovered by Qin Yi.
Almost without resistance, it was killed by Qin Yi with one blow, or Qin Yi shook the fish man out of the ground, Wu Peng, Zhao Jing Sheng and others rushed up, sword lights flying, knife lights piercing, instantly chopping the fish man into minced meat, and picking out the demon core.
These fish people are all relatively weak, their bodies have not even escaped from fish shape.
Along the way, Qin Yi and his group killed more than 30 fish-like humanoids that attempted to ambush them, obtaining enough demon cores to exchange for six merit points.
This bit of merit is still to be divided equally among five people, which is clearly not enough.
When they arrived at sunset, several people came to a vast cliff.
The cliff stretches for thousands or tens of thousands of miles, and the end cannot be seen at a glance. In front of the cliff, thick fog covers it, like cow's milk.
Take one step forward and it's a deep abyss of ten thousand feet, falling into it will crush your bones to dust.
"Which way should we go?" Xu asked Wu Peng, looking at the thick fog in front of him.
Wu Peng is looking at the map with Qin Yi at this moment.
This map was taken from Wu Peng's family, with complex icons and textures on it. However, the terrain, mountains, and rivers of most of the Yu Feng continent are clearly visible, several times more detailed than a normal map!
Qin Yi's first glance at the map revealed the location of Yuhua City.
"According to the map, what's in front of us should be the Foggy Bay." Wu Peng looked at the dense fog tens of steps away, listened for a moment, and his eyes were filled with doubt. "But why is it that except for the salty smell in the wind, there's no feeling that the sea is right in front of us?"
Qin Yi took the map handed over by Wu Peng, looked at it carefully, and walked to the edge of the cliff.
One step ahead is an abyss, three steps away is a thick fog like a large cluster of clouds piled up, dense and heavy, as if a million tons of iron gates.
Qin Yishi took a deep breath, and the power within him surged rapidly, releasing wave after wave of ancient demonic aura. The layered pressure caused the surrounding air to churn and collide, producing the sound of metal striking stone. The rocks beneath his feet cracked and fissured with a loud "crack".
When they saw this scene, Wu Peng and others looked at each other, their eyes filled with horror.
Qin Yi could easily kill a fishman, while the four of them had to join forces to take down one, which was already enough to make them feel that Qin Yi's strength was above theirs.
But judging from Qin Yi's current performance, killing the fisherman was just a warm-up for him!
"Blazing Dragon King Fist!" Qin Yi crossed his arms, the air in front of him humming with a deafening roar, forming a whirlpool as tall as a person, with an astonishing pulling force that dragged and twisted the dense fog.
Qin Yi's hands tore apart, as if an invisible giant hand moved, the dense fog in front of him let out a loud roar, like waves rolling back, slowly parted.
Everyone only felt the sea breeze coming straight at them, and suddenly everything was clear before their eyes. The vast waves, the rugged strange rocks, the hidden reefs of the islands, the fishermen leaping about, all appeared one by one from behind the thick fog.
The vast and boundless sea surface, the dark reefs and strange rocks looming in the thick fog, the occasional sharp and piercing cries, the eerie shadows, the ominous and terrifying atmosphere, the distant horizon shrouded in dark clouds, the lightning flashing and thunder booming, the whirlpool roaring like a beast, as if it were the end of the world. The entire misty bay was like an ancient giant beast lying in wait, its bloody mouth wide open, waiting for prey to fall into its trap.
"We...arrived..." Wu Peng felt a dryness in his throat.
The huge sound of the waves crashing against the shore was deafening, and except for Qin Yi, the others were all shocked and frightened. Wu Peng could still speak at this time, which was already very difficult.
Qin Yi's eyes flashed with a sharp glint: "Continue advancing, we've just arrived at the Misty Bay, and we mustn't tarnish the reputation of Tian Sheng College. Let's kill a few more fishmen, earn some merit points, and don't let other students look down on us! Although we're not the strongest team, we have unity and brotherhood, our strength can cut through gold!"
Upon hearing Qin Yi's words, a surge of heroic spirit rose up in everyone's hearts.
Qin Yi's previously displayed strength had already quietly made him the core of this small team, and with these words, all four nodded in unison.
"Go, let's slay the demons and monsters, and get their demon cores!" Zhao Jing Sheng swung his long knife in hand, leaping down from the cliff first, agile as a monkey, on the steep cliff wall, jumping and climbing like walking on flat ground, before long, he arrived at the bottom of the cliff.
Wu Peng, Zeng Xuan and Xu also followed suit, jumping down from the cliff with ease and agility, their movements stretching out in a beautiful arc, leaving onlookers gasping in amazement.
When they all arrived below the cliff, Qin Yi smiled slightly and suddenly stepped into the air, walking forward.
"Qin Yi has gone mad!" Zeng Xuan exclaimed.
Contrary to their expectations, Qin Yi did not fall straight down. His feet seemed to have a staircase under them, allowing him to walk down step by step.
From the cliff down, there is a distance of three or four hundred zhang. Qin Yi stepped down steadily, as if stepping on stairs, amidst the stunned expressions of the crowd.
Qin Yixiu cultivated the Black Jiao's Breaking Void Power and the Eight Extremes Great Method, his sensitivity to external things far surpassed that of ordinary people.
At a glance from the cliff, he felt that the misty bay was filled with ominous energy, and the aura of evil spirits was overwhelming. The fish people hidden in this labyrinthine bay were absolutely not comparable to those big fish on the periphery.
Wu Peng and others had already shown signs of cowardice, but Qin Yi decided to show off some of his strength, giving them unparalleled confidence!
"Chen Haofeng, with the strength of the fifth layer of the Jie Ti realm, at most can only control his breath for a distance of over ten steps..." Zhao Jing Sheng didn't know how to continue.
Walking down from the cliff, Qin Yi took a step forward, and all the way down, he didn't see any signs of breath disorder. His true energy was like the vast ocean, continuous and unbroken, majestic and powerful, even condensing into shape, making the four of them see that the air seemed to solidify.
"Qin Yi can already control his Qi!" Wu Peng was shocked.
Last month when Wu Peng just saw Qin Yi, he remembered that he was in the Blood Sacrifice Realm, which already surprised Wu Peng greatly. Unexpectedly, in just a short month, Qin Yi had actually cultivated to the point of forming an Airborne Army, this is a strength that only a high-ranking master of the Body Refining Realm possesses!
In just one short month, he has risen three realms in a row. This is absolutely a genius among geniuses, a strong person who hasn't appeared in millions of years. If this gets out, it's probably enough to scare the principal of Tian Sheng College to death!
"Junior brother, you?" As soon as Qin Yi walked down, Wu Peng immediately went up to greet him and carefully examined Qin Yi before asking in confusion: "Junior brother, you're still at the Blood Sacrifice boundary, so why can you achieve the Air Control technique that's only possible at the Body Sacrifice boundary?"
"Senior brother, don't forget that I was once struck by lightning, my Qi Sea and meridians were all expanded. Although I'm only at the Blood Refining Realm now, I can already condense true energy."
Qin Yi said, facing the crowd with a serious expression: "This was originally my secret, but since we arrived at this Misty Bay, every step is frightening. We can only trust each other to complete our mission and return unscathed. I, Qin Yi, consider everyone as brothers, and now that I'm showing you my true strength, I hope you can believe in me. As long as we work together, even if we encounter the likes of Extreme Bliss Cultists or Black Water Young Masters, we can still put up a fight! Those fish people, one comes, one dies; two come, two die! In the end, we'll return with our spoils and receive our rewards at the academy, advancing together!"
Upon hearing Qin Yi's bold and grand words, the four people present felt their blood boiling with excitement, as if a burst of golden light had suddenly descended from the dark clouds, dispelling all the gloom in their hearts.
"Right! The disciples of our Tian Sheng College are all geniuses, what's there to fear from that Fish Man? No matter how many come, we'll kill them all!" Zeng Xuan drew out his sword and shouted loudly.
"This time, we're here to reap what we sowed!" Xǔ burst out laughing.
Wu Peng and Zhao Jing Sheng's faces also burst into smiles, the previous tension and fear negative emotions were swept away.
"Brother." Wu Peng walked forward, sincerely saying to Qin Yi: "Thank you, if it weren't for your words, we would have continued on with negative thoughts, and probably wouldn't have made it. If you're willing, when we safely return to Tian Sheng Academy, I'd like to become sworn brothers with you!"
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
"How can I be left out!"
Zhao Jing Sheng, Xu **, Zeng Xuan unwilling to fall behind, stepped forward together and said.
Looking at the four people with enthusiasm on their faces, Qin Yi's mind moved.
Qin Yi is now in Tian Sheng College, with weak power and no backing. Although he has the Supreme Divine Ability, without his own forces, fighting alone will inevitably make every step difficult.
Through previous contacts, Wu Peng and others were generous and bold, which was very much to Qin Yi's taste.
Qin Yi nodded without hesitation and said: "What are we waiting for? Let's return to the academy and become sworn brothers now!"
When they heard Qin Yi's words, Wu Peng and the others were stunned at first, then cheered loudly.
Their hearts surged with an unprecedented passion at the same time!
In the family, intrigue and struggle for power, people's hearts are unpredictable; in the academy, alone and weak, with a heart higher than the sky, but a life thinner than paper. But now, I have brothers, from this day on, I am no longer alone!
