“Eh?!”

Xia Guanghai was startled, shading his eyes with one hand as he peered into the distance.

The distant clamor had left him surprised, and when he focused his eyes, he saw that a large number of exotic beasts had appeared in the blackness of space, surging toward this location.

“The beast flood is here?!” Xia Guanghai felt very confused. The place he and Xia Fei had chosen was supposed to be rather far from the beast flood. This was precisely so that Xia Fei would be undisturbed while making soul weapons. For it to still be surrounded by the beast flood was far beyond what both men had expected.

*Whoosh!*

Xia Guanghai shot into the cave and saw that Xia Fei was looking strangely at Furball and Little Goldie. Some sort of mysterious data was being transferred through his eyes, which soothed the two somewhat.

“The beast flood is coming. We should withdraw and go somewhere else,” Xia Guanghai sternly said.

Xia Fei shook his head. “I know, but we can’t withdraw.”

“Why?” Xia Guanghai asked in confusion. It was just the two of them. Was Xia Fei really planning on contending against the terrifying beast flood?

“This isn’t the beast flood but someone’s trap, instead,” Xia Fei refuted, his gaze turning sharp. “Just now, Furball and Little Goldie have suddenly become very restless. If my guess is right, a special ability user is broadcasting an ultra-low frequency targeted on exotic beasts, instigating this beast flood attack.

“Retreating will likely make us fall into the enemy’s trap. After all, we were the ones who chose this planet, so we understand it. Once we retreat into the unknown cosmos, the situation will no longer be under our control.”

Xia Guanghai was rather surprised. It turned out that Xia Fei had already noticed the new development and taken the corresponding countermeasures. The speed at which the latter’s mind worked was simply beyond compare, which was what made Xia Fei Xia Fei!

“So we’re not retreating?” Xia Guanghai asked gravely.

“No retreat!”

“Understood.” Xia Guanghai nodded. He took out a large ax from his spatial ring, the high-ranking soul weapon he had gotten from the Collapsed Expanse of Founders. With a cold face, he determinedly sauntered out of the cave.

Xia Fei put away the soul weapons on the ground and followed Xia Guanghai, whispering to him a few orders.

“It seems that they don’t intend to retreat. What a pity that my intricate trap won’t get a chance to show its full might,” Fengyu remarked, feeling surprised.

Suddenly, Xia Fei turned toward the beast horde, two black beams shooting out of his eyes!

This darkness was deeper and colder than the darkness of space, and it was packed with complex information. Through Xia Fei’s Ocular Cognition, it was sent right into the brains of the exotic beasts!

*Rumble!*

The distant beast horde instantly fell into disarray! They began to fight with one another!

Beast against beast! The Beast Spirit Codex could not just tame exotic beasts but could also make them go crazy!

The effects were surprisingly good.

One reason why the Beast Spirit Codex was even stronger was it being unleashed through the Origin of Heaven from the Triclopean Fiend Clan. Another reason for it was the exotic beasts had already been under the control of Fengyu’s voice. The sudden addition of Xia Fei’s Ocular Cognition had thrown the exotic beasts into immense pain from the conflict of these two beast-controlling techniques, making it easier for them to fall into chaos!

Fengyu frowned. He was quite alarmed at how quickly Xia Fei had seized control of the beasts. The Divine Phoenix’s Heavenly Words was Fengyu’s ultimate technique. Besides this Devil Shadow Dragoon having many tactics, each one had a special attribute. Controlling beasts and sonic disruption were Fengyu’s specialties!

Strange vibrations came from his throat at a faster rate, as Fengyu refused to lose to Xia Fei’s Ocular Cognition. He intensified his control over the exotic beasts, clashing with Xia Fei’s.

At this moment, an unseen clash between the Divine Phoenix’s Heavenly Words and the Beast Spirit Codex was taking place!

*Bang!*

Xia Fei also strengthened his offensive! Fiendish energy exploded!

All beast-controlling techniques emphasized aura. After all, beasts were different from humans, for they would only submit to the strong! Thus, someone who wanted to control beasts had to make themselves seem extremely powerful! Only by presenting a lethal threat to exotic beasts on the mental plane would exotic beasts bend their knees.

There was originally no comparison between sound waves and Ocular Cognition, for the two methods were completely unrelated. Sound waves were unseeable and were only felt through one’s ears and heart. Ocular Cognition was more direct, as those exotic beasts only needed to look at Xia Fei in order to be drawn to his terrifying gaze, thereby losing all resistance.

The clash between Xia Fei and Fengyu threw the beast horde into even greater turmoil. After all, vision and sound were very different transmission methods, and making the exotic beasts suffer from both could easily shatter their minds.

The veins on Xia Fei’s face, particularly around his eyes, were bulging out. Fengyu was not in much of a better state, his Adam’s apple bizarrely pulsing and covered in veins.

*Bang!*

With a massive boom, an exotic beast finally broke under the combined pressure of Xia Fei and Fengyu! It chose to self-detonate!

An exotic beast’s self-detonation shared the same principle as a warrior burning up their lifeforce. They were both extremely powerful!

In a flash, a large number of exotic beasts were felled! Wails resounded through the universe!

“So strong!” Xia Guanghai was stunned. He finally understood that this silent clash of peak experts was far from simple as it first seemed! The mental energy of the two was causing these high-ranking exotic beasts to self-detonate! Just how cruel and brutal was all this?!

Xia Fei’s gaze remained strong and focused. It was very difficult for one person to control a horde of thousands of high-ranking exotic beasts. This was like an enormous game of go, and he could not afford to relax for the slightest moment. The slightest flaw could lead to a total reversal of the game.

In the distance, the hidden Fengyu was shocked. He was currently fighting Xia Fei to a draw. No matter how much power he put in or what control technique he used, Xia Fei was able to match him.

Xia Fei’s Eye of Darkness consumed one hundred units of spirit energy every second, and Fengyu needed even more, for sound wave control was not as direct as Ocular Cognition. As the saying went, eyes were the window to the soul, so Xia Fei was able to send his powerful will easily into the minds of the exotic beasts. Fengyu, by comparison, needed to convert his sound waves into brain waves, a rather costly process. Every second, he consumed around 150 units of spirit energy.

*Bang bang!*

As their clash intensified, the exotic beasts came under greater mental pressure, and many of them started to buckle under the pressure and chose to self-detonate. Explosions resounded from the beast horde, and the encirclement that Fengyu had gone to great lengths to create was beginning to crumble.

This was exactly what Xia Fei wanted to see and what Fengyu did not want to!

With no time to think, Fengyu pushed his control power to the very limit!

Xia Fei did not seem ready for this. Fengyu took this chance to wrestle control from him of the beast horde and had them crazily charge over. The torture had filled to the brim these exotic beasts with murderous intent!

Fengyu was in the middle of celebrating when Xia Fei suddenly turned his head, using his dark and cold gaze to scan the surrounding region!

The intensity was enough!

Xia Fei had intentionally made Fengyu exert his strongest control so that he could find out where the latter was hiding!

The beauty of sound waves was in energy differentiation. Although it used a lot of energy, as it was transmitted through ultra-low frequencies, it could not be seen.

If Xia Fei had been a sonic expert like Fengyu, he would have found the latter long ago, but he was not. His skill was ocular cognition! Thus, he could only force Fengyu to use extremely powerful sound waves, so powerful that they left behind a trail that he could see!

Others might be unable to see it, but Xia Fei could see the waves in the air! Those were the energy disturbances created by excessively powerful frequencies.

Xia Fei could follow these disturbances back to Fengyu’s position.

“Furball!”

Xia Fei called as he charged at Fengyu’s location.

Xia Fei grabbed Furball in his hand as if the Holy Beast were a baseball. He swung his arm back, and then he threw him out!

*Bang!*

Furball turned into a comet—a lethal comet—as fast as light!

“Little Goldie!”

*Whoosh!*

Another strong throw. Just like Furball, Little Goldie flew off in Fengyu’s direction.

Hiding behind an asteroid, Fengyu realized that he had fallen for a trap. While taking control of the beasts, he had been discovered by Xia Fei!

After sending off Furball and Little Goldie, Xia Fei followed with Xia Guanghai, instantly forming an encirclement!

Accelerated by Xia Fei, Furball had become extremely fast! In the blink of an eye, he had reached Fengyu. As he was of the energy type, he was covered in a thick layer of light. This, combined with his lightning-fast speed, made for a shocking lethality!

Fengyu did not dare to take on Furball’s impact. After all, this was a crazy strike from a Holy Beast! If he took the attack, both of them would come away injured. As such, all he could do was dodge to the side.

As an Annihilator, Fengyu had a very fast reaction. Just after leaving the asteroid he had been hiding behind, a massive boom ensued as it was obliterated. This created an even wider-range attack as the debris became like shrapnel from an explosion and swept through the surroundings.

At the same time, a gaping maw opened in the darkness of space, tearing the surroundings apart.

Fengyu used his hands to shield his face from the shrapnel, so he did not have time to observe his surroundings.

However, when he did take a look, he saw that he had changed locations. He was not in conventional space but rather in dark space!

Far off in the distance, Furball, Little Goldie, Xia Fei, and Xia Guanghai were glaring at him. As for Fengyu’s powerful beast horde, it had been cut off by dark space.

Shocked, Fengyu immediately tried to recall what had happened.

From the moment Xia Fei and Fengyu started to vie for control of the beast horde, everything had already started to follow Xia Fei’s tempo!

By pretending to be weak, he had exposed Fengyu’s hiding spot! He had then thrown out Furball as a smokescreen! His attack made Fengyu dodge, momentarily losing control of his surroundings.

After Furball came Little Goldie, and it opened up a passage to dark space. By the time Fengyu came back to his senses, he had already been transported over!

It was a meticulous plan. The high-ranking exotic beasts gathered from afar and all of Fengyu’s tactics were completely ineffective in dark space!

If the beast horde were here, Fengyu would still not be at a disadvantage, even if he had been discovered. After all, he had sound waves. While controlling the beasts, he could employ other tactics, too, whereas Xia Fei would be forced to focus completely on Ocular Cognition, meaning that Xia Fei would be unable to attack him as he was using Ocular Cognition. He could not even move, for the slightest lack of focus would cause him to completely lose control of the beast horde.

If Xia Fei did not take part in the battle, Fengyu would only have to deal with Xia Guanghai, Furball, and Little Goldie—a group that would be much weaker without Xia Fei acting as their commander.

This was the plan Fengyu had wanted! He was certain that he would not lose even if he was discovered!

Alas, the battlefield was now dark space, and all of Fengyu’s tactics were useless here! He was now surrounded by Xia Fei’s group!

Two cold lines of sweat trickled down Fengyu’s face as he frowned.

As an Devil Shadow Dragoon, Fengyu had studied tactics and was the most knowledgeable in them!

He suddenly discovered that his tactics were absurdly simple compared to Xia Fei’s!

In the blink of an eye, the terrain and numbers had all flipped over to Xia Fei’s side!

It was clear that Xia Fei was the real tactician!
