Chapter 845: Demons’ Withdrawal

Translator: jinzeffect

With curiosity, Li Fuchen circulated the Hand of Sun qi power and dashed towards the universe.

There was no air and no resistance here. Li Fuchen’s speed was getting faster and he ultimately became a stream of light.

“So fast…”

Li Fuchen felt his surroundings turning into a thick substance. The faster he went, the thicker the substance and the greater the resistance. Li Fuchen knew that the resistance wasn’t just air resistance, there was also void resistance. Once the void resistance was broken through, it would distort the void and one would be able to conduct very long distance travel.

Nearby the Deep Blue Plane, there were countless meteorites and they were all hovering slowly and were nearly still.

Swish!

Landing on a house-sized meteorite, Li Fuchen turned back to look at the Deep Blue Plane.

He was still too near and couldn’t see the entire view of the Deep Blue Plane. He could only see a deep blue radiance that didn’t have any ends.

“Let me comprehend the star cardinal patterns first.”

Li Fuchen took out the Fierce Sun Bead and continued to comprehend the star cardinal pattern within.

Perhaps by being in the universe and being able to see the stars at close range, Li Fuchen’s comprehension speed of the star cardinal pattern was several times faster. In just a few days, he had already comprehended 90% of the star cardinal patterns.

At the same time, Li Fuchen’s Hand of Sun had progressed from initial state to middle state.

“To be serious, the star law contained in the Hand of Sun could already create an apex martial art. Therefore, I shouldn’t treat the Hand of Sun as a heaven class high-tier, it should be a heaven class peak-tier, which is also the apex state.”

Li Fuchen didn’t know how to sort the different stages of the Hand of God. Li Fuchen guessed it might be due to the difference of sorting in ancient times as compared to the current generation.

But no matter what, in the same class, body refinement martial arts were already far superior to qi cultivation martial arts, let alone a body refinement methodology.

After a few more days, Li Fuchen had completely comprehended the star cardinal pattern. The Hand of Sun was now at the latter state.

At this moment, when the Hand of Sun qi power was used together with the Hand of Sun attacks, the strength had reached an exaggerated level. A single fist could turn over a million miles of meteorite belt into dust. It was also accompanied with a wave of blazing heat and light.

As for defense, it was even more overwhelming.

Just by using the law field on the surface of the body, Li Fuchen was confident he could receive the attacks of a normal high-level saint. With his body’s toughness and advanced Star Immortal Body, there was probably no one apart from peak level saints that could break his defense.

It also meant that Li Fuchen was already competent enough to contest with peak level saints or peak-tier demon overlords. Li Fuchen had just tested himself with a peak-tier demon overlord recently, therefore, his judgment was still rather accurate.

“I wish to explore the depths of the universe. It is a pity that it is not the moment yet.”

The universe was filled with races and overflowing with dictators. It was truly a glorious adventure. As a saint, if one didn’t explore the flourishing places of the universe, it would certainly be a regret.

Circulating the Hand of Sun qi power, Li Fuchen turned into a dazzling light and moved towards the Deep Blue Plane.

When entering the heat layer, Li Fuchen stopped.

He realized that when he absorbed the heat here, it didn’t really increase his body refinement level. His Hand of Sun was already at the latter state and required an extremely high demand in quality. The heat layer merely had a high production of heat and wasn’t very pure. It was possible to cultivate by forcefully absorbing it, but the efficiency was too low. By staying here, Li Fuchen’s body refinement might not reach the completion level of Soul Merge Realm even if he cultivated for a few centuries or more than a millennium. Furthermore, his body was already full and was like a container at the brink. If anymore was added, it would overflow.

As Li Fuchen left the plane, hence, when he returned, there was a deviance in position. When he descended again, he was at no.32 battle region.

“Another saint, I am truly lucky.” A few hundred thousand miles away, a purple-haired demon overlord spotted Li Fuchen.

“It just happens that I can use you to test my body refinement strength.” Li Fuchen naturally noticed the demon overlord too and didn’t move an inch.

300,000 miles… 200,000 miles…

100,000 miles…

Right at this moment, Li Fuchen executed a fist.

When the fist blasted out, a qi wave exploded and there was a glowing fist that distorted the void and smashed onto the demon overlord’s chest.

The fist was so fast that the purple-haired demon overlord only felt his eyes turning blurr and he was struck by the fist.

Pfff!

There was a delicate sound and the purple-haired demon overlord was turned into ashes without leaving a drop of blood behind.

“What a violent fist. When making contact with the enemy, it didn’t just emit a powerful force, it also had heat.”

Li Fuchen was very satisfied with the power of the Hand of Sun.

The fist might not be as exquisite as Sword Sea Horizon, but with the two layers of damage, if the enemy was slightly weaker, they would be smashed to smithereens and turned into ashes. It was basically impossible to survive.

“Mystic Ice Beast Overlord, you better hope you don’t meet me again.”

After killing the demon overlord in a single fist, Li Fuchen’s spiritual awareness scanned around.

He encountered the Mystic Ice Beast Overlord in no.30 battle region previously, therefore, the Mystic Ice Beast Overlord should be around the vicinity. If it was possible, he wanted to encounter and kill the Mystic Ice Beast Overlord.

…

“What is going on? There isn’t any demon liege in the plane?”

On an abandoned mid-class continent, there weren’t any demon lieges that came out together with the surge of demons from the Gate of Flesh. Demon Liege Longke felt it was strange.

Demon Liege Wakedo said, “They must have gone to assist the other planes.”

The demons were a top race in the universe and it was common for them to invade multiple planes concurrently.

Just as Demon Liege Longke was going to speak, his spatial ring emitted a black radiance. A demon sculpture that was the size of a palm had flown out automatically.

This demon sculpture had a pair of flesh wings on its back and the forehead had a third eye.

“Wakedo, Longke, return immediately and give up the invasion of the Deep Blue Plane.” An imposing voice echoed from the demon sculpture.

“9th Hell Liege, we are almost succeeding. Give us a little more time.” Demon Liege Longke replied anxiously.

Demon Liege Wakedo asked, “9th Hell Liege, is there something happening on another plane?”

“That’s right, the Map Spirit Plane is at the climax. If we can succeed, we can occupy the Map Spirit Plane.”

“Map Spirit Plane?”

Demon Liege Longke and Demon Liege Wakedo exchanged looks.

Their war with the Map Spirit Plane had persisted for a century. If they could rout the Map Spirit race and occupy the Map Spirit Plane, it would indeed be a great achievement.

The demons might have the upperhand in the Deep Blue Plane, but it was still far from achieving victory. After all, there were still many human experts that had yet to return, while the demons had also yet to go all-out. Therefore, even if the two demon lieges were reluctant, they knew that it was necessary to give up the Deep Blue Plane.

“9th Hell Liege, we understand.” Demon Liege Longke didn’t have any alternative.

Just as Li Fuchen was preparing to showcase his power, there was a strange occurrence. The number of demons had reduced. At first, Li Fuchen thought it was a misconception, but when he saw countless demons rushing back into the Gate of Flesh on an abandoned continent, he finally understood why the demons were decreasing.

To be honest, Li Fuchen wasn’t concerned as to why the demons withdrew. He was only happy for the people and for the human race.

However, this war, be it victory or not, the people were the ones that suffered.

Some of the low-class continents were simply razed to the ground during the war. Trillions of human lives were lost.

“The demons withdrew, but the demonic beasts won too.” Li Fuchen sighed with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.

In this war, the humans had risked everything, while the demonic beasts basically did nothing.

Originally, the humans and demonic beasts were evenly matched. But now, the humans suffered severe casualties and would probably be suppressed by the demonic beasts.

“We humans have to unite!” Li Fuchen shouted silently in his heart.
