Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future

285 The Sword of Destruction

At this moment, the black skeleton suddenly yelled, “No, you’re the one who’s courting death!”

It opened its mouth and spat out black gas, which condensed into a huge, gaseous black skull. The skull opened its blood-red mouth and bit at Shen Fei’s head.

“Go to hell!” Shen Fei roared.

In his hand, a sword suddenly appeared—the Sword of Destruction. He waved it, slashing forward. When the sword hit the black skull, a destructive energy fluctuation burst out and spread in all directions. Shen Fei’s momentum did not stop and he continued to slash forward into the black skeleton behind the ephemeral apparition.

The resulting aftershock caused the cave behind to collapse.

The black skeleton did not expect Shen Fei to be able to block its attack. It immediately roared in anger and its body expanded, becoming even taller and bigger, like a mountain.

“Detestable!” The black skeleton opened its mouth and tried to bite Shen Fei’s throat itself.

“Get lost!” Shen Fei yelled angrily as he slashed his sword at the black skeleton’s mouth.

A huge sound of impact was heard, and the black skeleton’s body was sent flying backward.

After the black skeleton was forced back by Shen Fei, it lay immobile for a while. Its eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.

“This ant is so powerful that my devouring energy could not wipe him out!”

In the next second, Shen Fei rapidly charged at the black skeleton. The Sword of Destruction in his hand dancing around him like crazy. The blade was thrust forward continuously at the black skeleton.

However, the black skeleton’s skin was incredibly hard. Each of Shen Fei’s sword strikes only left a few nicks and did not cause any fatal injuries to it.

The black skeleton was not to be outdone. It opened its bloody mouth and spat black mist at Shen Fei. The black mist contained extremely dense corrosive energy. Once it came into contact with a living object, it would corrode the soul.

Although the black skeleton did not have a cultivation base, it was able to control the laws of corrosion, which was its strongest attack.

“Hmph!” Shen Fei coldly snorted. The Sword of Destruction in his hand turned and stabbed at a ball of black mist near him.

Poof!

The ball of black mist was dispersed by the glinting blade of the Sword of Destruction. Then, with another thrust, the sword blade went through another ball of black mist and stabbed straight though into the black skeleton’s chest.

“Aarghh!” A scream was heard as the black skeleton was pierced by the Sword of Destruction. The black skeleton’s corpse and soul crumbled and scattered in an instant.

In the next second, waves of white light lit up from Shen Fei’s forehead, enveloping his consciousness. Soon, the light became brighter and brighter, so bright that he could not open his eyes.

Shen Fei’s consciousness gradually became blurry, and he was completely immersed in the light.

…

After two hours, when the light had finally dissipated, Shen Fei finally recovered fully.

“Phew!” He opened his eyes. There was nothing but confusion in them, as though he had no idea where he was.

Shen Fei raised his head and looked at his surroundings. He realized that he was next to a towering tree. There were so many flowers around him, it was like a cloud of petals. Shen Fei rubbed his temples for a while. When he felt a bit better, he opened his eyes again to scan his surroundings. He was actually sitting down, cross-legged on the ground.

“Wh-where am I?”

Shen Fei frowned. He only remembered that he had defeated the black skeleton. He could not recall anything after that. When he regained his consciousness, he was here.

‘Something’s wrong…’ Shen Fei frowned. He then circulated the Qi in his body, wanting to feel his own situation.

Eventually, Shen Fei’s face revealed a look of shock. “Crap! Why did all the Qi suddenly disappear?”

Shen Fei’s expression changed to panic. He was sure that he was circulating his own Qi, but now, it had strangely disappeared.

“Could it be that my spiritual core really got destroyed?” Shen Fei looked uncertain. No matter what, he had to figure out his own situation first.

Thus, Shen Fei stood up and used muscle memory to circulate the spiritual essences in his body, absorbing the Qi into his spiritual core. However, after the Qi entered his core, it was unable to merge together. Instead, it was rejected, no matter what Shen Fei tried, causing him extreme pain.

“Damn it! Why did it turn out like this?!” Shen Fei’s face was crestfallen.

Logically speaking, with his strength, he should be able to easily refine the Qi and make it purer. But now, Shen Fei could clearly feel that not only did the Qi in his body refuse to become pure, it even turned chaotic. Even the smallest trace of it was violent and eager to wreak havoc.

“What’s going on?” Shen Fei could not understand. “Flame Owl, come out.”

…He still could not summon his spirit beast. It seemed like this hidden void was different from the world outside. Furthermore, even with his current strength, he was simply unable to break through the void.

“I can’t get out using the conventional way…” He then looked at his surroundings and realized that all the plants around him had withered. It was like they had encountered a great disaster. The ground was even filled with web-like cracks.

“Forget it, I’ll explore the surroundings first.” Shen Fei sighed, and then flew off.

He was not worried about the danger. After all, the space within this realm was quite stable. Even if a beast barged in, it would definitely die an unnatural death. Therefore, Shen Fei did not need to worry about danger.

…

Two days passed by quickly. Two days since Shen Fei fell into this trap. However, in these two days, other than encountering the black skeleton, no other demonic beast had even come close to Shen Fei.

“No, if this continues, I’ll end up dying here!” Shen Fei’s face revealed his anxiety.

He understood that the flow of time in this void was consistent, yet time passed very slowly in this place compared to the outside world. And it was too quiet, almost suffocating!

“I can’t delay any longer. I have to improve my strength as soon as possible. Otherwise, I’ll die in this damn place one day,” Shen Fei muttered to himself as he flew forward.

“Huh?”

Shen Fei had just flown a few dozen meters forward when suddenly, a strange sound came from ahead. This sound was very soft, like a mosquito. However, Shen Fei still heard it.

Buzz…

After this noise was heard, it gradually grew into a dense buzzing sound. Shen Fei listened carefully, and was shocked to see that there was a group of black things flying toward him from where the sound came from. Moreover, this group of flying black creatures were quite fast.

They were grasshoppers, as black as bats, and had wings like birds.
