Speed per second: 15,000!
The Alliance was in an uproar because of Xia Fei, and the insectoids were enraged because of Xia Fei. Just when Uti had selected three of his seven Sacred Champions to surround and capture Xia Fei, Xia Fei had suddenly disappeared. This left the Sacred Guild's guildmaster, Duabi, extremely depressed. It was as if Xia Fei really had some kind of special ability. A few days ago, he had caused a huge commotion among the insectoids, but now that they were getting serious, he was nowhere to be found.
Duabi, Kikiger, Laresh, Goxan, and the Twelve Wings of the Sacred Guild circled around Xia Fei's last location like fools for a full ten days. The art of war had it that one's morale was boosted by the first spurt, then weakened by the second, and then exhausted by the third. The elite insectoid warriors had come valiantly, prepared to meet the legendary apex human ability user Xia Fei, but they ended up squatting in the warship and watching porn, their morale plummeting by the day.
On a black insectoid battleship, Duabi sat in the command center, bored. He rested his head on his hand as he gazed into space. The insectoids responsible for keeping an eye on the monitors were also yawning out of boredom. As for the three Sacred Champions, they had long since run off to their respective rooms to either cultivate or surf the internet. Although the Seven Sacred Champions were also part of the Sacred Guild, they were still direct descendants of the Golden Tent. Duabi did not have the right to directly give them orders.
The Twelve Wings were more obedient. They sat in a circle and played an ancient game, Aeroplane Chess. This game had been passed down from the Panhuman Alliance and was a children's game. The relatively simple-minded insectoids were very passionate about it, and after a few thousand years, it had become one of the most popular games in the race, with tens of thousands of ways to play it.
"How depressing! How depressing! How depressing! Where did that human warrior go?! " Without any warning, Duabi became hysterical. He slammed his desk with all his might, smashing it to pieces.
"He's nowhere to be seen, and we can't leave even if we want to. What the fuck is this!?" Duabi ruthlessly kicked the broken table and chair, sending over a dozen broken pieces flying!
Bang!
One of the fragments hit a soldier who was dozing off, and the unfortunate soldier's head immediately burst open. Some of the fragments even penetrated the radar system, causing a small fire.
Whoosh.
The automatic fire extinguishing system was activated, and cold water poured down like torrential rain, drenching everyone.
This was truly bad luck. Duabi and the Twelve Wings stared at each other, each more depressed than the last.
…
On the Impaler, Xia Fei was sweating profusely as he walked out of the cultivation chamber. He went to the bathroom and filled a basin of hot water before lying down comfortably.
Eleven days later, Xia Fei's, the Blood, the Wings of Blood.
"This advancement was truly dangerous, and it further verified my judgment. There will always be an end to relying on medicine to advance. We need to repair the damage to the seventh brain region to allow you to continue advancing," Phantom said in a deep voice.

The robot Dou Pea brought Xia Fei a glass of fruit juice and a few slices of bread. A person could not immediately consume large amounts of food when they were exhausted, or else it could easily damage their digestive system. Xia Fei knew this very well. He ate this food and a White Dew, and his mental and physical strength slowly began to recover, though he was still hungry.
Furball hopped over to Xia Fei's side, jumping into the bathtub and making all sorts of fancy movements to make Xia Fei happy. Next to him, Dou Pea was like a naggy housewife, constantly asking about Xia Fei's well-being.
Xia Fei suddenly realized that, though he had no humans by his side, only a ball, a robot, and a ghost, his days were not too bad.
Furball spent all day thinking about how to make Xia Fei happy and please him. Dou Pea was busy taking care of Xia Fei's daily needs, and Phantom was Xia Fei's mentor and helpful friend. With these fellows as companions, it was enough to offset the depression of living alone for so long.
For eleven days, Xia Fei was constantly fighting against the powerful medicinal effects, so both his mental and physical strength were greatly depleted. He soaked in hot water for ten-some hours, eating a meal and a White Dew every thirty minutes, and only then did Xia Fei's physical strength gradually recover.
Standing up, Xia Fei put on a bathrobe and went to the command deck.
He stood in front of the radar and checked the search records. During this time, the Impaler had not stopped moving and had been moving forward in stealth mode.
Xia Fei was currently facing a critical juncture, and that was whether his ability could reach the Legendary rank. After going through Starlight, Star Constellation, Star Domain, and Star River, it was the benchmark of a top-class warrior, the Legendary rank.
Just by looking at the names of the ranks, one could tell that there was no longer the word 'star' from Legendary. This was because once a warrior reached the Legendary rank, they could be called a master no matter where they went!
This was a leap from warrior to master! Reaching the Legendary rank meant that one had the capital to establish their own sect and leave behind an immortal legend, truly becoming an existence admired by the world!
"Do you think you can reach the Legendary rank?" Phantom nervously asked.
Xia Fei shook his head. "The rank of a speed ability isn't determined by the number of ripples in the brain region. Rather, it needs to be tested on the spot and determined by the maximum speed value. I need to find a place where I can sprint at full speed to know the result."
Speed and strength, these two major abilities, were classic body-optimizing abilities. Unlike special abilities, which were determined by the number of ripples in the brain region, these two abilities needed to be tested on the spot. Thus, as the Impaler kept moving forward, the radar system searched for a suitable location so that Xia Fei could determine just what level he had reached.
Testing inside the Impaler was not practical. Xia Fei's speed had already exceeded ten thousand meters per second before he had advanced, so what more now? He would reach the end of the runway before he could accelerate, so there was no chance for him to push his limits.
Even the most advanced speed evaluation machines could not test a Legendary rank speed ability user. This was because no machine could withstand the immense pressure of a speed ability user exceeding ten thousand meters per second.
In order to determine the rank of his ability, Xia Fei could only find a deserted place in space and sprint like an athlete.
The reason why Xia Fei was in such a rush to raise his speed to the Eternal rank was because of the insectoid ability users. He hated the insectoids and wanted nothing more than to exterminate them in one fell swoop, but now that the insectoids also had ability users, Xia Fei had no choice but to reevaluate his own abilities. If he wanted to cause greater destruction, he needed greater strength. Thus, not long after Xia Fei absorbed the mental explosion from the insectoid cerebrum, he began a new round of advancement.
"Eh?" Xia Fei's eyes lit up as he exclaimed in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Phantom came up to Xia Fei and asked.
"Speaking of which, while I was in seclusion trying to reach the Eternal rank, the radar system really did find an uninhabited habitable planet," Xia Fei excitedly said.
This planet was about a day's flight away from his current position. The analysis showed that the air quality of this habitable planet was actually quite good, completely suitable for human habitation. Even more remarkable was that this planet had never been developed before!
Xia Fei simply could not believe that he had found a primitive, uninhabited land in the insectoid territory! If this were in the Alliance, he might even receive a discovery award from the Geography Society.
Activating the navigation system, Xia Fei did not use Warp, instead relying on the ordinary engine to slowly approach the planet. After experiencing a life-and-death struggle with the drug, Xia Fei needed to rest and recover his nearly depleted body.
Xia Fei had no idea that this small action had once more evaded the search of the nearby insectoid fleets. It seemed that Duabi's luck was truly terrible. He would probably have to remain depressed for some time.
…
Twenty-seven hours later, Xia Fei tidied up his clothes and prepared to go to this planet to test out his speed.
He put away all his weapons in his spatial ring and did his best to travel as light as possible. He wore the Zephyr combat boots that could increase his speed, the Bloodthirsty Ice God combat suit, and a mask on his head. He looked like a masked man from a sci-fi movie.
He chose a plain overgrown with weeds for his experiment. This grassland spanned over ten thousand square kilometers, and it was circular. Xia Fei could walk around it in circles, making it very suitable for pushing his speed ability to the limit.
Furball and Lil Pea were also very excited. Furball mischievously rode on Lil Pea's back, and Lil Pea did not find Furball's actions repulsive, allowing him to do as he pleased. It was said that robots were evil existences, but Lil Pea was as innocent as a child and had nothing to do with evil.
"Are you ready?" Phantom asked.
Xia Fei firmly nodded. He flexed his arms a few times, and then he squatted down like a sprinter getting ready to go.
"The Impaler's radar system will record your movement speed, but I can't say for sure if the combat suit you're wearing can withstand that much pressure. Though the Bloodthirsty Ice God is powerful, it's not designed for speed ability users. It's best if you slowly accelerate. Don't push your speed to the max all at once," Phantom added.
Speed ability users would create intense air turbulence when they ran, and combat suits designed specifically for speed ability users would often have windproof materials added to reduce the effects of the wind. Though the Bloodthirsty Ice God was of a high grade, it was not designed for speed ability users. Xia Fei had not run into any problems when he was moving at ten thousand meters per second, but that did not mean that it would not happen now. After all, Xia Fei's rank had increased, and his legs were clearly much more powerful than before. His explosive power was like a boiling pressure cooker, immense energy ready to burst out at any moment.
Taking a deep breath, Xia Fei closed his eyes and focused all his scattered mental energy on the path in front of him, clearing his mind of all distractions.
* Thump! *
Stomping his feet on the ground, Xia Fei shot forward like a bolt of lightning!
"Your current speed is 10,521 meters per second! Just slowly accelerate like this! Release your energy to your heart's content! "Spiritshadow shouted excitedly.
"Twelve thousand meters per second!"
"Thirteen thousand meters per second!"
"Keep accelerating! Keep accelerating! "
"Fifteen thousand! Xia Fei, you've already reached the Advanced Star River rank! Any more and you'll be shooting straight for the Legendary rank! "
