The Base of the White Jade Ape
After who knew how long, Xia Fei slowly opened his eyes. The dim light of the ship's cockpit was dazzling, and he did not know if he was in the mortal world or hell.
"Master! You're finally awake! You've been unconscious for three days and three nights, and Lil Pea was worried sick, "Lil Pea anxiously said.
He helped Xia Fei up, hoping that he could sit more comfortably. Alas, this demon warship was cramped, and the alloy floor was very hard.
"Count yourself lucky this time. Seven of your ribs are broken, the tibia of your left leg is broken, your right arm is broken, and you've even suffered internal injuries." Phantom sighed in relief. "Follow my prescription and make a few medicines. You'll be fine after resting for half a month. As for your internal injuries, you'll need to slowly nurse them back to health."
Xia Fei nodded. At this moment, Furball came over and hugged Xia Fei's neck. This fellow had also been injured in the battle, and in his panic, Lil Pea had wrapped him up into a ball of yarn. His two beady eyes were dim, and he looked very weak.
"Furball's fine. He's just a little exhausted and needs a lot of Origin Crystals to replenish his energy," Phantom explained.
Xia Fei glanced at the rows of empty crystals on the ground. While Xia Fei was unconscious, Furball had not been polite at all, eating more than a hundred grade 4 Origin Crystals, which made Xia Fei's heart ache.
Taking out an Origin Crystal, Xia Fei absorbed its energy while looking out the window. The galaxy was dark, and several pieces of space rubble brushed past the window.
"What is this place?" Xia Fei asked.
Lil Pea was startled, and then he patted Xia Fei's head in concern. "Master, is your head alright? You were the one who set the locator to get here! "
Xia Fei was speechless. He truly could not remember what happened before he collapsed, and it was not easy for him to get Lil Pea to give up on checking his brain and tell him that there was nothing wrong with it.
"This is the border of the Demon Race." The spatial ring was not closed, so Oro's words could be heard clearly.
"The Demon Race?"
"You can't have really forgotten, right? After boarding the warship, you insisted on returning to the Alliance in a daze, but even the fastest Demon Race warship would take several years to travel from the Law Realm to the Alliance, so I gave you the coordinates and brought you to the Demon Race's border to see if you could get your hands on an unregistered Spatial Compass, "Oro explained.
Xia Fei lightly slapped his forehead. "Now that you mention it, I seem to recall something like that."
With that said, Xia Fei hurriedly pulled out the enhanced Black Bat radar. It clearly showed that the signal had been sent, and only then did he relax. He tried to contact Avril, but unfortunately, there was no response from her due to the vast distance between them.
"If my guess is correct, you disregarded everything and charged out of the Yu family's warship at the last moment not only because you don't trust the Yu family, but also because you wanted to send this signal out, right?" Oro asked.
Xia Fei nodded.
"Who should I send the signal to? Is that person important to you? "
Very important. Xia Fei forced himself to get to his feet.
At some point, Edgeless had been removed, and Xia Fei, like Furball, had been tied up like a mummy by Lil Pea, white bandages all over his body.
Lil Pea's cooking skills were commendable, but alas, he did not know much about medicine. He was only in this state because of Oro's guidance, or else he really would not have known how to treat his wounds.
Over this period of time, Xia Fei had Lil Pea accompany Oro in the spatial ring, and the two had actually become rather good friends. Alas, only Xia Fei knew of Phantom's existence, and Lil Pea had no way of obtaining medical knowledge from him. Otherwise, he would have been able to treat his wounds better. After all, Lionheart Emperor Oro was just a second-rate physician, and his medical skills were worlds apart from Phantom's.
Xia Fei spent half an hour treating his wounds and mixing a few bottles of medicine.
* Gulp, gulp! *
A bottle of red medicine entered his mouth, and Xia Fei felt his entire body relax. The pain from his broken bones also lessened, though his internal organs were still churning.
When he had robbed Dark Ghost's ship, Xia Fei had left behind some medicinal ingredients and equipment for himself, so mixing medicine was not a problem.
After reading through Sentinel Goddess Sophie's database, Phantom's medical skills had improved astonishingly. Xia Fei could not help but give him a thumbs-up, praising the efficacy of the medicine.
Sitting in the pilot's seat, Xia Fei inspected the ship's operations.
"It's fortunate that you have this Demon ship, or else Edgeless and the tracking device on the spatial compass would have already discovered you. The God and Demon Races have been enemies for a long time, and their systems are incompatible. As long as you're in this ship, you don't have to worry about being discovered. Of course, it's best if you don't use Edgeless or the spatial compass when you go out. You'll be discovered," Oro proudly said.
"What do you plan to do next?" Oro asked.
"Get an unregistered compass and return to the Alliance," Xia Fei sternly said.
"Never to return to the Law Realm?"
Smiling, Xia Fei said, "When the time is right, I'll naturally return. Yuhua isn't dead, and no one can leave me unscathed. I'll remember Yuhua's debt for now, and one day, I'll make him pay!"
Xia Fei's eyes flashed as he gritted his teeth.
Vengeance had always been Xia Fei's way of doing things. This time, he had suffered terribly at Yuhua's hands, and there was no way he would let him go.
Oro shrugged. "That's easier said than done. What will others think if you blow up the Yu family's warship and escape? It's inevitable that they'll link you to the calamity that befell the Yu family, and Yujiang's death will also be blamed on you. "
Xia Fei replied, "There's still a chance of survival if I escape, but staying behind will only make things worse. This is clearly a massive conspiracy. Yuhua, Yujin, and Yupeng are the three main forces of the clan, and there's also that mysterious masked man. He's a Law Overlord, and he was able to retract the out-of-control dark space with a single hand. His level is unimaginably high.
"There's no way such a group of people wouldn't have a backup plan. If I stay behind and say that Yuhua and the Shatter Wu Clan are the masterminds behind this scheme, do you think they'll believe me or the Nine Great Clans?"
Oro said nothing. Xia Fei was alone, and no one would believe him. Moreover, if he stayed behind in the Yu family, his fate would no longer be in his hands. Who knew if an expert would suddenly appear and kill Xia Fei in an instant? Making enemies with a group of powerful people was not a good strategy.
"Besides, Yuhua and the Shatter Wu Clan are only on the surface. I don't know who else is hiding in the shadows, and enemies that I can't see are the scariest. I need to get out of this mess and find a chance to investigate in secret. Though this will put me in a passive position, at least my fate will still be in my hands. "
Oro agreed with Xia Fei's judgment. The situation was chaotic, like a pool of stagnant water, murky and unclear.
Staying in the water meant that he would not be able to see anything, and there was also the danger of being bitten by the crocodiles hiding in the water. Only by jumping out of this pool of stagnant water and waiting for the wind to calm and the sand to settle would he be able to see what was in the water.
Oro chuckled. "It's not easy to maintain a clear mind in this chaos. Besides, you took two of Yuhua's Darkness Metal weapons and the Yu family's Immemorial Mystical Armament, Nine Night Plum, so you didn't lose out too much.
"Darkness Metal is abnormally expensive. If you go to the Demon Race and trade one of them for a high-grade spatial compass, you'll be even richer. The Demon Race's spatial compass is completely different from the God Race's. As long as you're careful, no one will be able to catch you. Once you have enough strength, it won't be too late to come back and settle the score with Yuhua."
These words reminded Xia Fei of something, and with a light swipe of his spatial ring, Xia Fei took out the Darkness Metal weapons, the Ode of Hundred Spirits and Halfmoon's Destroyer. He had snatched them from Yuhua's hands, and he had even bitten off half of Yuhua's ear. It was a good thing that he did not vomit blood in anger.
There was also the box that Old Woods had given him. Everything had happened so suddenly that Xia Fei had not even had time to see what was inside before he was swept up in the storm.
Finally, there was a plant sealed in a transparent petri dish, the Nine Night Plum.
Its white branches and leaves were translucent, and its nine small black flowers were in full bloom. White leaves and black flowers, the Nine Night Plum looked extremely strange.
The plant was two meters tall and exuded the aura of a king!
In contrast to Peacock Blue's low profile, the Nine Night Plum exuded a domineering aura.
"The Immemorial Mystical Armament Nine Night Plum is a mixture of the plant and darkness elements. It is an extremely poisonous existence among the Seven Plants of the Cloud Sea." Oro raised an eyebrow. "Look at the container that contains the Nine Night Plum. It has an air circulation system, but it doesn't have an external release system. That's because it's very hard to predict what will happen if the poisonous gas leaks, and it's very likely to cause widespread destruction.
"Peacock Blue is the most tenacious of existences, while the Nine Night Plum is the most insidious."
Xia Fei nodded. The Nine Night Plum had nine blossoms, each as black as ink, sweeping over the world like the eyes of the night. Alas, the Nine Night Plum was extremely poisonous, and it would take many twists and turns to subdue it. The difficulty could not be ignored.
Opening the box that Old Woods had given him, Xia Fei saw a square piece of white jade with a groove at the top. It seemed to be used to store something.
"Why is it a piece of jade? Even a high-end Origin Crystal would be fine. What's the use of this thing? Old Woods is too stingy. I even wasted my energy to help him solve the puzzle of fractal geometry, "Xia Fei grumbled.
"Wait!" Xia Fei was just about to put this useless piece of white jade into his ring when Oro suddenly called out.
"The material of this thing isn't ordinary. I remember that you have a White Jade Ape, and it's also made of white jade."
Xia Fei was startled. He took out the White Jade Ape from his ring. The white jade was cold and crystalline, and it was the same for that square object.
"Could it be …" Xia Fei placed the White Jade Ape on it. * Crack! *
A miracle occurred. The White Jade Ape was placed on the pedestal, perfectly fitting together.
"It's … it's a whole?!" Xia Fei muttered to himself.
This White Jade Ape had the effect of gathering the energy contained in Origin Crystals. When cultivating the Law of Energy Purification, using this ape to purify and gather energy would be twice the result with half the effort. And this white jade brick was actually its pedestal!
"I get it!" Lionheart Emperor Oro sternly said, "This thing should be similar to our Demon Race's Enchanted Earth Dragon, both of which are objects that further purify Origin Energy. What Old Woods gave you is the base, and only when the two are combined will it be complete!"
Xia Fei doubtfully placed a grade 4 Origin Crystal on top of the White Jade Ape's head. In an instant, a white light rose, traveling from the White Jade Ape to the pedestal and back again.
