Chapter 910: Three Demons and Peak Law Overlord!

Radix was silent, so Xia Fei could not help but worry. He had gone to great lengths just to extract Radix from Fig Corporation. What would he do if something happened to the mech king?

Squatting, Xia Fei carefully inspected Radix’s main control chip. Robots entirely relied on this chip, and as long as this chip existed, they could be reborn. It was extremely important.

After inspecting the system several times, Xia Fei discovered that this ancient microchip had seemingly fallen into a deathly stillness. It was impossible to turn on but was also completely undamaged, which was rather strange.

As Xia Fei was feeling confused, a weak voice rang out in his mind. Though he had never heard it before, the tone was very similar to Radix’s.

“My soul almost dispersed just now. By absorbing the energy of the microchip, you almost killed me,” said the voice feebly.

In shock, Xia Fei hurriedly asked, “You’re Radix?! How can you talk to me like this? Besides Phantom, no one else has been able to establish a mental connection with me!”

The voice in his mind panted for breath. Radix seemed to be in a very feeble state. “I don’t know who Phantom is, but as long as the method is right, the immortal soul can establish a connection with anyone. It’s not anything too difficult.”

Xia Fei’s eyes flashed as he sternly asked, “So you’re like Phantom, an immortal spiritual being, not a robot?”

After a few moments of silence, Radix replied, “I originally didn’t plan to tell you, but since you found out, there’s no point in keeping it hidden from you. Yes, I’m a spiritual being that had been implanted into that ancient microchip.”

Xia Fei’s jaw dropped in shock! Disbelief was written across his face. The king of mechs was a spiritual being?! This was truly unbelievable!

After a brief pause, Radix added, “I originally had a comprehensive defensive system, specifically designed to keep the energy pulses from causing an explosion. Alas, to gain my freedom, I had no other choice but to give up the system. Thus, we had a really close call when you pulled out the chip.”

Xia Fei frowned. “My apologies. I harmed you.”

Radix casually said, “You mustn’t say that. You saved me! Although I took some damage, if you didn’t take decisive action and used that Rainbow Heavenly Pearl in your brain region to absorb the energy, I really might have turned to dust.

“You’re very good, showing no hesitation when you need to act. At that moment, even I thought that I was done for, but then you pulled me back from the edge.”

After praising Xia Fei’s resolve, Radix seriously said, “I’m too weak, so I need you to help me again. The other problems can wait until later.”

Xia Fei sternly nodded. “Speak. How can I help you?”

“Advance! Advance like a madman!” Radix sternly said. “When you were advancing, the energy pulses slightly resonated with the Rainbow Heavenly Pearl. These resonances have no use to you, but they can help me repair my damaged essence. If I don’t have the power from your advancement, I probably won’t last seventy-two hours.”

Xia Fei was stunned, muttering, “In other words, I need to break into the next level within the next seventy-two hours?!”

Radix bitterly chuckled. “I know that your level is already very high, and advancing to another level is very difficult, but I’m afraid that I don’t have any other options.”

Clenching his teeth, Xia Fei stood up and strode outside. “Alright! No matter what, you can’t give up. I’ll break through soon!”

*Whoosh~*

Xia Fei went straight to the space station’s command deck, where Wind Raja and the others were busy with their own matters. Upon seeing his solemn expression, they hastily raised their heads and stared in confusion at Xia Fei.

“There’s been an emergency, so I need to enter seclusion right now. I’ll leave this place to the rest of you,” Xia Fei scanned the trio and sternly said. “This space station contains the essence of Fig Corporation, and it is protected by layer upon layer of defenses. No matter what, I hope that all of you can do your best to dig out any hidden dangers within these systems and remove them.

“It will be a pity if such a formidable research station gets destroyed. It will be a disaster if we take it out of Dark Space while it still has some secret signal emission system installed, and all of us will end up dead.”

After a moment of shock, all three masters thumped their chests and promised Xia Fei that they would do their best to dig out all of Pinnacle’s signal equipment so that the best research station of Fig Corporation would truly be theirs!

Xia Fei nodded, then he turned, and left. He returned to Prison Cell 1 on the lowest floor of the space station. As the six-layered alloy gate closed, he began to cultivate crazily!

“Don’t worry. I promised Sophie that I will bring you back, and I always keep my promise!” Xia Fei’s eyes exploded with light as he declared.

…

The corpse of the Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance floated in Dark Space. The massive demon chrysalis, which had been chopped into countless pieces by Xia Fei, died a terrible death. Anyone who came across this place would mistake it for a hellish battlefield!

*Whoosh~*

Forty-eight hours after Xia Fei left, three giant demon chrysalises arrived at the scene. They were not as large as the Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance, but they were still enormous creatures.

“Heavens! Our clan’s Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance was killed?!”

“Who could have done it? The Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance was the king of Dark Space, and Elan was a demon chrysalis tamer with many years of experience. How could they have been lost here?!”

The Edusa Clan warriors on the three demon chrysalises were all stunned! Darkness appeared on their faces as they surveyed this gruesome scene.

None of them could believe that the pride of their clan, one of the top-class demon chrysalises of the Demon Race, was gone just like that! It was clear that the opponent was not just strong but also extremely vicious!

“Hing~”

The three demon chrysalises, each with more than a thousand eyes, mournfully wailed. Exotic beasts had intelligence, as did demon chrysalises. The three of them were Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance’s children. When their father died, they entered into a frenzied rage back at the Edusa Clan’s base.

The tamers responsible for raising the demon chrysalises realized that something had gone wrong, so they released these three demon chrysalises and followed them to this place, but what they ended up finding was this gruesome massacre!

The Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance and two top-class demon chrysalis tamers had all been killed!

After howling in rage, the three demon chrysalises began to eat their father’s body silently. There was a great rumbling with every swallow. It was clear that they still burned with rage!

“How… can they even be eating their own father?!” an Edusa youth covered his mouth and said. He had become a demon chrysalis tamer not too long ago and still did not understand a lot. In his view, even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs, yet even though the Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance died such a painful death, its children were eating his flesh!

Next to him was an elder with pronounced cheekbones, a cunning light in his sharp eyes. He snorted and said, “Do you know why our clan only has one Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance?”

The young man shook his head, frowning as he looked at the three demon chrysalises.

“Because the Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance has never been raised. It’s inherited! Only when the old Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance dies will a new top-class demon chrysalis become its progeny. This is how their status in the Dark Space has been passed on through generation after generation,” the elder coldly explained.

The young man was startled. He seemed to have realized something and hastily said, “Oh, I remember now. The Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance has a dual-colored spirit pearl in its head, and when it dies, its descendants can eat that to inherit its power, but the books mention nothing about them eating the flesh of their parents, right?”

The elder heartily laughed, and then his eyes turned vicious!

“That’s only if the circumstances are normal. Our Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance here died with great resentment, and even the dual-colored spirit pearl in its head was stolen. This is wonderful news!”

The youth was utterly baffled. Tilting his head, he asked, “Grandfather, the Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance is dead, and even its spirit pearl was taken. This is clearly an awful situation, so how can you call it wonderful news?”

The elder patted the youth on the head and excitedly replied, “Then watch closely. Our clan’s three demon chrysalises are about to emerge from their cocoons and be reborn!”

The young man still did not understand, so he could only swallow his confusion and keep watching.

After the three demon chrysalises had finished eating their father’s body, they began to weave cocoons in the middle of Dark Space!

Black threads wove together, wrapping around the three demon chrysalises, and then they suspended themselves upside-down in space like silkworms that had yet to emerge.

The elder had already gathered his men to watch from far away. The youth’s mouth had dropped open as he looked at this incredible sight!

These demon chrysalises had become adults a long time ago; they were already massive beings with one thousand eyes, but they were now entering cocoons for a second time! What was going on here?!

The elder excitedly said, “Life will always be able to find a way; These three demon chrysalises have lost their father’s inheritance, so they will never be able to become the Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance, but their father died while brimming with resentment! After eating their father’s corpse, they have inherited their father’s abilities and anger! They have become true demons!”

The elder loudly laughed as he declared, “Our Edusa Clan should thank the expert who killed the demon chrysalis! With the death of the Ten Thousand Buddha Radiance, our clan has gained three demons! They will be even stronger than before!

“Just wait! Once these three demon chrysalises emerge from their cocoons, they will dominate Dark Space!”

…

Pinnacle Research Station, Prison Cell 1.

There was only half an hour until Radix hit his limit, and Xia Fei was still flying along the difficult path of advancement.

That rainbow-colored energy ball in his seventh brain region was releasing energy like crazy. This time, Xia Fei had entrusted the White Jade Swimming Dragon Ring to Xia Guanghai, so he could only rely on this strange ball of energy.

Radix was the king of the Mech Race and was an enigmatic figure. His nature as an immortal soul already had Xia Fei feeling amazed, but that he could repair his essence using energy pulses through his advancement? How could that be explained?

Xia Fei did not understand any of this, and he still had many more questions, such as those concerning the Ark and the Cosmic Gate.

However, at this moment, Xia Fei had cleared his mind of any thoughts and was focused entirely on breaking through! For as long as he could keep Radix alive, there was still hope!

*Rumble!*

Less than one minute away from the limit of seventy-two hours, Xia Fei finally broke through!

*Whoosh~*

There was a brief and strange energy pulse, and a second later, Radix had devoured it all!

“So powerful! Truly too powerful! You broke through two thresholds in a row within seventy-two hours! This advancement speed is absolutely absurd!” Radix excitedly said. Seemingly empowered by the pulse of energy created by Xia Fei’s advancement, Radix’s voice was clearly much more energetic.

Indeed!

This was not the first threshold Xia Fei crossed in these seventy-two hours. It was his second!

He had achieved peak Law Overlord!
