Chapter 1002: The Fourth Passenger on the Ark

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The Great Soul Hunter whose combat strength far surpassed everyone present had arrived, making the very galaxy stir!

Without a doubt, Hosu was very powerful, and there was no reason Xia Fei could lose with such a super powerhouse on his side!

But Xia Fei was frowning, because he could sense a big emotional fluctuation in Hosu!

The Great Soul Hunter Hosu was loyal, brave and composed, but today, he was uncharacteristically full of rage!

His eyes were all bloodshot, and his eyebrows were angled sharply! Hosu’s stern gaze was fixed on the elder in the black cloak, glaring at him in unabated hatred, directing every ounce of killing intent right at him! Even the color of the very sky had turned with his surging killing intent!

Xia Fei pursed his lips and did not say a word. However, a foreboding feeling built inside him. Hosu was a very cautious individual. After losing his soul weapon, it had taken a great deal of effort before he managed to gather enough energy to seal the Cosmic Gate again.

According to Xia Fei’s plan, it was decided that they would try to refrain from Hosu expending too much energy, having him show up to shock the enemy so that they could capitalize on the moment of fright and deal a devastating blow to their forces.

But reading this present situation, Hosu had really been enraged! This unreserved release of energy made it seemed like it was his intent to go all out against this elder!

Could he be harboring some deep seated grudge against this unfamiliar elder? So much so that he would stop at nothing to see him dead?!

*Boom!*

That elder suddenly erupted from his silence! He was actually giving off an aura comparable with what Hosu was emanating!

Those Dark Lifeform warriors who had originally been feeling suppressed by Hosu’s aura were practically crouching under the immense pressure, but after the elder unleashed his aura and clashed against Hosu’s aura, these warriors instantly felt more at ease as they felt the pressure on them recede.

Hosu’s expression turned grim. He stared at the elder as he said to Xia Fei, “Get a good look at this person. His name is Wenwist. He was once the personal servant of your grandfather, and was a fellow passenger on board the Ark with us.”

Xia Fei was stunned. He had always thought that there were only two living beings and one Soul Ship on the Ark, but now he had just learned that there was actually a fourth passenger!

“Wenwist was a vagrant we met on our travels. I tried to persuade your grandfather not to take in this alien, but your grandfather was far too benevolent. He could not bear seeing him wandering through the stars, and this Wenwist was a great actor, willingly accepting your grandfather as his master and becoming his servant.

“During our journey, I caught him stealing your grandfather’s things several times. Every time I wanted to kill him, I would be stopped by your kind-hearted grandfather, arguing that he was still young and could be properly educated.

“Everything was fine when the situation was rosy, but the moment he encountered the Inverse and was hunted down by them, the deep-rooted bad habits that Wenwist has manifested clearly for all to see!

“In order for your grandfather to protect everyone, he spent his life’s cultivation on opening the Cosmic Gate, and I also sacrificed my physical body just to Seal it up. Even Radix nearly dissipated into the winds due to the destruction of the Ark, but Wenwist! This servant stole your grandfather’s things and fled on the escape pod all by himself!

“The Ark was a Soul Ship of great distinction, and the escape pod it came with was also fitted with the most advanced survival systems, able to use a super-warp function that allowed the people inside to instantly escape from danger!”

“Back then, your grandfather passed out because he used up too much of his energy, but if we had the escape pod, perhaps he might not have died! Though your grandfather ultimately died due to the pursuit of the Inverse, as well as the universe’s miracle poison Cosmic Wolfslayer, Wenwist was also a culprit that contributed to his death! I must settle this score with him!”

Xia Fei’s entire body shuddered! To think that this tragedy would have so many unknown twists; Wenwist’s theft, escape from the Ark, fleeing all the way outside the Law Realm and establishing his own species, the Dark lifeforms!

Later, though Xia Fei’s grandfather Wistful Valley had managed to reshape his body, he was ultimately killed by the miracle poison Cosmic Wolfslayer. However, Hosu harbored a deep-seated grudge toward Wenwist for stealing his master’s things and escaping on his own. In his eyes, Wistful Valley was bound to be in an extremely weakened state when reshaping his body, and it was precisely because of this weakening that had caused the toxins buried deep in his body to trigger.

Hosu hated the ones who had poisoned Wistful Valley, the Inverse, but his hatred toward Wenwist was far more extreme! That was because the ever-loyal Hosu hated someone who would betray their own the most!

Kindness was all that Wistful Valley had shown toward Wenwist back then, even personally giving him his name of Wist, clearly treating him as one of his own! Yet in the end, all he received from Wenwist was betrayal!

When enemies meet, their eyes would redden to a greater degree!

Hosu and Wenwist, the pitched battle between the two super warriors could happen at any moment!

What should have been a fight with an overwhelming advantage had turned chaotic due to the sudden appearance of Wenwist. After all these years, Wenwist had turned from a lowly servant and turned into a super warrior that was on par with Hosu!

While these two were evenly matched against each other, that meant Xia Fei would have to take on the Dark lifeforms and Constant without his aid! This was a bleak circumstances that he now found himself in!

“Give me a bit of time, I’ll take the head of Wenwist and give it as tribute to the young master’s soul!” Hosu swore with fierce determination.

Xia Fei nodded. Though he very much wished to slay Wenwist with his own hands, he was well aware that a warrior at that level was not someone he could deal with, and right now, it was the Skywing Clan that needed him more!

“Kill him! In the most merciless fashion!” Xia Fei sneered. This was the first command he had given Hosu after learning that he was the Young Master of the Aurora Clan!

Jolted for a moment, Hosu pointed at the faraway Wenwist and sternly proclaimed, “Wenwist! You must die today! I stake my honor as Soul Hunter Hosu on this!”

Everyone on this entire battlefield was stunned after hearing that!

The auras of both Hosu and Wenwist were soul-stirring, which puzzled everyone. They had thought these two individuals were gods that had descended to the mortal realm. Now that Hosu was betting his honor as a Soul Hunter to kill Wenwist, it made everyone wonder just what sort of existence a Soul Hunter was.

Wenwist was like a block of wood, coldly staring at Hosu and his rising fighting spirit.

All of a sudden, Wenwist opened his mouth. “The old me would be no match for you, but that might not be the case now! It’s still unknown how things will play out! I’ll wager you’ll be the one dying!”

*Rumble*

Battle abruptly began. Hosu and Wenwist’s fight shocked everyone present the very moment it broke out!

It was like watching a tiger and dragon embroiled in conflict, where the very environment itself was shaped to their attacks!

In the blink of an eye, both sides had unleashed auras that could destroy everything!

Soul Arts lived up to their name as a super combat power that went beyond physical limitations; everyone could see colorful lights fill the sky, almost as if light was being smashed about, rolling in a turmoil that flooded the very space around them in resplendent colors! It was a captivating sight!

“So this is the power of Soul Arts!” Xia Fei muttered to himself, startled.

Radix stared at this eye-catching fight between Hosu and Wenwist as he gravely murmured, “That’s right, Soul Arts are a pure and explosive burst of mental power. They can cover a huge area and there’s an even greater variety of methods. They far outstrip what the physical form is capable of!

“Now that you have your Soul Mark activated, and have the cultivation of both the Soul-hunting and Soul-eating systems, you’ll definitely achieve in the future a greater potency than Hosu is currently demonstrating! However, I never imagined that Wenwist could improve so vastly during these years! I’m afraid Hosu will be in for a really tough fight now!”

Xia Fei turned around and looked toward the distance where Constant and Dark King Wendar stood, saying, “I believe Hosu has the capabilities to take care of his own problems. For now, let’s face what’s in front of us first!”

With the disappearance of Hosu’s oppressive aura, the Dark lifeforms alongside Constant and his fellow Founders were once more looking at Xia Fei through gritted teeth, ready to come hurtling over at any second! It looked like they were not intending to abandon their plan to eliminate all the living powers in the Law Realm!

“Let’s finish them off while we hold the numerical advantage!” Wendar shouted.

*Whoosh*

The Dark lifeform army renewed their assault. Under the leadership of Wendar, this huge force went diving toward Xia Fei and the others.

Constant ground his teeth and followed this charge of the Dark lifeforms. Losing his position and his glorious identity had maddened him! He no longer cared about anything any longer; what friendship between comrades?! Constant had long since banished such triflings to the nether!

Seeing Constant siding with the Dark Lifeforms in the end, Old Crane bellowed out and cursed, “Constant! You shameless and heartless cad! To think you’d abandon the Law Realm like this! You dare call yourself a Founder when you are leveraging your numerical superiority!”

Constant let out a mirthless chuckle as he arrogantly retorted, “Enough talk! Bullying the few with the many is precisely what I’m going to do today! If I can’t live, I’ll be sure to drag the rest of you down along with me!”

Everyone’s eyebrows were knitted together. After all, with the Dark lifeforms and Constant now on the same side, that made the number of Founders on their side six! That included the Dark King Wendar and the number one war god of the Law Realm, Constant!

They could not forget about the million strong elites behind them either, as imposing as a rainbow that could penetrate the stars!

Xia Fei’s side had been at a disadvantage from the start. The many instances when they had been able to equalize their situation had been disrupted by the appearance of a powerful foe who would destabilize everything once more!

Right now, the oppressive black army was almost upon them, and their numbers were tens of thousand times greater than Xia Fei’s! The situation was seriously dire for Xia Fei’s side!

That was when Xia Fei suddenly smiled and shouted, “Bullying the few with the many, you say? Then let us help you all learn whether the Dark lifeforms or the Law Realm’s war gods are greater in number!”

*Boom!*

The moment he said this, a bright burst of light filled everyone’s vision!

Countless spatial channels seemingly opened all at once! Innumerable Law Realm warriors came surging out!

God Race!

Demon Race!

Guardians!

Rebels!

There were even mercenary groups from the Exiled Grounds!

Wendar was stunned! Constant was stunned! Every single Dark lifeform was stunned!

They had forgotten a very obvious fact: The Temple of the Many Gods was within traversal range of the spatial compasses! Practically every warrior in the Law Realm had their own spatial compass, and so every clan could create a spatial channel of their own!

Through this display of advanced spatial traversal, the warriors from the Law Realm were able to instantaneously arrive here at the ruins of the Temple of Many Gods!

If the five major powers were willing to set aside their differences and come together, they would have a strength several times greater than the Dark lifeforms!

*Zing*

A single warcry rang through the vacuum!

Wenpixa demonstrated the soul of a warrior right at this moment, stunning the Dark King Wendar. Even Constant had momentarily lost his senses at the turning, yet it was the queen who was secretly controlling the Dark lifeforms from behind the curtain who charged forward instantly!

Streaking out brilliantly, Wenpixa’s mysterious twin butterfly swords flashed, and with a quick flick of their tips, went aiming right for Crane’s head!

She lived up to being the brains behind the Dark lifeforms, as she could tell in an instant that Crane was the one in charge among the five Founders. If he was to be taken out of the picture, it would severely dampen the morale of the others!

*Schwing!*

But it was at that moment Xia Fei’s legendary blade White Dragon’s Screech took action as well!

With a low wail, every single giant Dark Beast fainted!

Stellar Dawn, Stellar Chrysalis, and the Ancient Dragon!

None can compete when the White Dragon descends!
