Chapter 782: Terrifying Hallucinations

Han Fei couldn’t have felt more awful when he saw the message.

Nobody, not even him, expected that the red tree would be a Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon that Yu Hun mentioned.

Han Fei remembered that the Thousand-Year Tree Demon was very smart and knew how to set up traps.

Then, Han Fei’s next thought was that he must flee.

Without any hesitation, Han Fei performed the Flying Flower Demon Flash and left the team.

The moment Han Fei escaped from the team, everybody felt shocked.

However, Yu Hun, Yu Ji and Yu Ying were the first to react.

Their reactions weren’t the same. Yu Hun established a weird red barrier for himself while his body escaped.

Yu Ying turned into a dozen shadows, and he appeared in the high sky.

Yu Ji was the only person who laid her hands on her harpoon and condensed an enormous water statue, trying to protect others.

Han Fei’s first thought when he saw the scene was that she was stupid. You’re protecting others when you could’ve protected yourself? Do you have any idea what you’re faced with?

Pu…

Pu…

Crack!

What happened next made Han Fei and Yu Ying’s blood freeze. They were both astounded.

Hundreds of demonic stings erupted from the soil. They were all Heavenly Talents. The moment Han Fei reacted, they started rising too. Two of them also used Flying Flower Demon Flash.

However, they were one step slower after all, and they underestimated the Thousand-Year Tree Demon’s abilities.

As it turned out, the stings of the Thousand-Year Tree Demon didn’t just attack from underground but darted out from the side. Even though Han Fei, Yu Ying and Yu Hun had escaped, a weird red sting still extended out from behind him.

Han Fei’s body was in a weird gesture. The red demonic stings had just brushed past his head. If he were slower, he wouldn’t be sure that his head would still be intact.

Yu Ying dealt with it more gracefully than Han Fei did. Her shadow was pierced through, but she had assumed another one.

She was slightly surprised at Han Fei’s moving technique, which was very neat. The guy’s reaction speed was terrifying too.

Yu Hun was an expert sea demon. The moment he ran off, he moved his body horizontally and cut the Thousand-Year Tree Demon with shadow scissors. He reacted even faster than Han Fei did.

Unfortunately, everybody including Yu Ji was pierced except them. The two guys who managed to perform Flying Flower Demon Flash were stabbed too.

The water statue that Yu Ji created couldn’t resist the Thousand-Year Demonic Stings at all and was easily broken, and she was heaved to the heights as the stings couldn’t break her Divine Battle Suit.

Yu Ji was the only one who had a Divine Battle Suit, so she was the only one who survived the attacks.

However, she vomited a mouthful of blood even though she survived.

One of her teammates had a Semi-Divine golden battle suit, but it didn’t help. The golden battle suit was pierced through. However, the guy performed Flying Flower Demon Flash in advance and was able to change his position during the stabbing, so he was wounded in the thigh instead of his chest.

Those who weren’t able to run in time were all impaled by the stings.

The stings weren’t done after one stabbing. Instead, they stabbed the targets continuously.

Yu Lu and Yu Xian, who had already died once, couldn’t be resurrected again now that their Immortal Seals had been used.

Also, unlike last time, they were faced with not one Hundred-Year Tree Demon, but three Hundred-Year Tree Demons and one Thousand-Year Tree Demon.

The Tree Demons could only attack their target by stabbing them when the target was least prepared.

Clang!

Yu Hun cut open the barrier that the Thousand-Year Tree Demon set up as a disguise with his scissors. However, the Thousand-Year Tree Demon dove into the soil and disappeared.

Yu Hun roared, “Damn it, it’s a Thousand-Year Tree Demon! We ran into a Thousand-Year Tree Demon!”

It was impossible to chase the enemy. If they landed on the seabed, who could resist the unpredictable stings?

Even Han Fei wasn’t confident of blocking the Thousand-Year Demonic Stings. After all, they could pierce Semi-Divine equipment. He could only resist ultra-quality demonic weapons at this moment, when they were not wielded by Heavenly Talents.

If his enemy were an Heavenly Talent, he couldn’t resist them with his bare hands even though they were only using ultra-quality demonic weapons.

At this moment, Han Fei’s team still thought that they ran into a Thousand-Year Tree Demon. They didn’t notice the Hundred-Year Tree Demons at all.

At this moment, all the stings disappeared into the ground, and two teammates had really died. Only nine of them were left, and five had lost their Immortal Seals.

Yu Hun was quite chilled. Two of the Heavenly Talents from the Ten Thousand Demon Valley had been killed when the exploration just began?

What should he do if it happened again? Those five guys could be killed any moment.

Yu Ji suddenly grabbed her harpoon and pointed it at Han Fei. “Why did you run alone?”

Everybody looked at Han Fei with an unfriendly expression.

Han Fei remained calm. “There wasn’t time. I had to save my own life and tell you that danger was coming with my action.”

Nobody could burst into fury after hearing that. After all, the attack was too fast. They would’ve fled as early as possible without wasting time warning others if they were in Han Fei’s shoes.

Yu Hun’s face was dark. “You were the one who discovered this place.”

Han Fei scoffed. “I didn’t discover this place. I simply smelled something.”

Yu Hun looked rather gloomy. Logically speaking, Han Fei wasn’t to blame for the accident, but he had been behaving too coldly since the beginning.

It never occurred to Yu Hun that he escaped no more slowly than Han Fei did!

Yu Ji put her harpoon down. In any case, after days of observation, she didn’t cherish Han Fei as a talent anymore. She found that the guy would not fit in with them.

After that, Yu Ji lowered her head and looked at the seabed. “The Thousand-Year Tree Demon must still be here. We should kill it.”

Yu Ying scoffed. “How? Unlike human beings, we cannot control those plants even though we can control some creatures.”

Some were shocked. They had already died once. If they went down again, they would probably really be killed.

Some disagreed and found a perfect excuse. “Our purpose is to kill the dry tree, not to fight the Thousand-Year Tree Demon.”

Someone thought for a moment. “If there are treasures down there…”

Yu Hun roared, “We won’t fight it! Let’s get out of here!”

Han Fei sneered. He had been holding his breath since the beginning, but he vaguely sensed something wrong. Where were the hallucinations?

Yu Hun was the captain, and when he said that they should go, everybody swam back to the forest of algae without hesitation.

However, the moment they started moving, they saw an overwhelming number of red stings stabbing from the void.

Yu Hun roared, “Not good! Run!”

Han Fei frowned and mumbled. “Wait! Can the stings of the Thousand-Year Tree Demon be launched from the void? If they can, why would it pretend to be a tiny tree and root in the bush of thyme?”

Han Fei quickly turned around and stepped back while he thought quickly.

He tried blocking the stings with his harpoon, only to find that the stings were fake.

Not just Han Fei, everybody else discovered that too.

Yu Ying roared, “No! They’re all fake! Don’t move!”

Nobody dared to move, not even Yu Hun. He had fought a lot in the front line, but he had never been to this place. He had books for reference, but the information on the books was completely different from reality. Besides, this situation was never mentioned in the books!

Nobody dared to move at this moment, but the thyme was growing crazily.

Han Fei cut some of the thyme, only to find that they were real and they had the power to pull everybody closer.

What happened next was bloodcurdling even to Han Fei.

He found that the bottom of the sea was twisted and folded like a piece of paper, as if it were going to envelop him.

Immediately, Han Fei activated the Eyes of True Vision, but he didn’t see anything.

The situation got more and more dangerous, and Han Fei looked around.

The rest of the team were trying to move towards different directions. When they turned around, they found that their companions were gone.

Han Fei found that his teammates were gone too. Had they all been wiped out, and he was left alone?

Suddenly, Han Fei sensed that something was stabbing at him. He dodged it with his natural instincts, but after that, someone shot something at him.

“Huh? The Hundred-Year Demonic Stings?”

“No, if it were a Hundred-Year Demonic Sting, my ultra-quality battle suit would’ve been pierced. Then, was it a long spear? Did someone attack me?”

Han Fei discovered, to his surprise, that his head was extremely clear, but he still couldn’t see behind the illusions.

He estimated that other people’s situation was the same. He couldn’t see them as much as they couldn’t see him.

“Fuse.”

Han Fei chose to fuse without hesitation. He had fused with his spiritual beasts only a few times during his growth, partly because he couldn’t contain Little Black’s brutality, and partly because the Yin-Yang Divine Eyes were too obvious.

However, he couldn’t see anyone at this moment, and dangers were getting strong. He certainly couldn’t fight the battle with blind eyes.

The moment he fused, Han Fei felt the strong desire of killing. His eyes became black and white, and his face expressionless.

However, his head was clearer than the previous times when he had fusion. He even wondered if he could master the state of fusion now.

In the next moment, he saw a flashing world where eight people were carefully feeling the environment. Occasionally, someone would attack a shadow.

Apart from the picture, dense vines were slowly approaching them, and a thick red treeman was sneaking upon one of them.

Two creatures were getting close to Han Fei. One of them was a Hundred-Year Tree Demon, and the other was a Half-Merman.

Han Fei remembered the Half-Merman’s name to be Yu Qiang, who had just been resurrected from an Immortal Seal.

Han Fei put on a bloodthirsty smile, and his heart was filled by the lust for killing.
