Chapter 675 - 661: Secret Skill Field Performance

As for the other secret skill, Ice Arrow Swarm, Xu Yi felt that it would be easier to learn after mastering Ice Seal first.

Soon, they encountered a 10-level Fierce Beast.

"Lu Ke, you should use Bursting Flame first, I’ll protect you from the side." Xu Yi thought it best for Lu Ke to use Bursting Flame initially, as this kind of secret skill requires constant practice to gradually master.

Lu Ke nodded and immediately approached the 10-level Fierce Beast.

This was her first time using this secret skill. Although she controlled it cautiously, the skill instantly drained half of her spiritual power.

The 10-level Fierce Beast hadn’t even launched an attack when it was surrounded by flames.

The cries of the Fierce Beast were extremely shrill, with a hint of eeriness.

However, within a few minutes, the cries stopped.

The flames also subsided along with them.

The Fierce Beast’s body was gone, leaving only a pile of ashes.

Amidst the ashes, there was a piece of something red.

Xu Yi immediately recognized it as a Brain Crystal, but didn’t expect it to have been burned red.

"Is this secret skill too powerful?" Lu Ke couldn’t believe her eyes. She knew the skill was strong, but hadn’t expected it to be so terrifying.

A 10-level Fierce Beast, reduced to ashes in a matter of minutes?

Although the secret skill is powerful and effective, the downside is that the Fierce Beast’s body gets completely incinerated.

The meat of the Fierce Beast is a source of food for them.

If they don’t eat meat, they can’t intake enough energy.

So, both Lu Ke and Xu Yi felt that a secret skill that burns the beast to ashes isn’t exactly a good one.

This secret skill is only for use when quick battles are necessary.

Compared to martial techniques, its effect is exceptionally direct, reducing a Fierce Beast to ashes within minutes without causing any visible harm to the user.

Moreover, Lu Ke felt that she didn’t need half of her spiritual power, controlling about thirty to forty percent is enough to kill a same-level Fierce Beast.

Against a beast one level higher, using fifty to sixty percent of spiritual power should also do the trick.

"Recover your spiritual power, and we’ll continue hunting Fierce Beasts to test the Ice Seal skill," Xu Yi said to Lu Ke, then used his spiritual power to control the still-red Brain Crystal, sending it flying into the sky.

This way, if it exploded, Lu Ke wouldn’t be harmed.

After all, flames are inherently destructive. Xu Yi was quite satisfied with the outcome.

This would be a very practical and formidable attack method against other civilizations.

After all, humans wouldn’t consume the corpses of high-level civilization creatures.

Even though they are made of meat, owning their civilization, no matter how unusual their appearance, Xu Yi didn’t think humans would consume them.

At the same time, he didn’t want creatures from other advanced civilizations to consume humans.

If such a civilization existed, Xu Yi felt it would be best to focus their efforts on taking them down.

Becoming food for another civilization is a concept Xu Yi found difficult to accept.

However, it requires sufficient strength.

Should the Fierce Beasts have such ideas, they would likely opt to eliminate humanity immediately to make them disappear completely.

Sadly, although there are Fierce Beasts on this planet whose strength far surpasses humans, they haven’t discovered that humans are beginning to invade their planet.

To all the Fierce Beasts on Spirit Blue Star, humans are invaders.

Xu Yi admitted this fact, as did other humans.

But for their survival, they had no choice but to target the Fierce Beasts.

If they do not take action, they would be devoured by Fierce Beasts, leading them to extinction.

Therefore, humanity prefers to choose to eradicate other Fierce Beasts for their own survival.

The fundamental requirement for any species or civilization is survival.

For survival, for the continuity of life, a species doesn’t care about the thoughts of other species.

This principle applies not only to humans but also to other civilizations.

"Xu Yi, I’ve fully recovered," Lu Ke said after five hours when her spiritual power had completely been restored.

Operating in the territory of a 10-level Fierce Beast requires maintaining full spiritual power.

Otherwise, encountering a group of Fierce Beasts would be highly troublesome.

Xu Yi and Lu Ke had previously encountered three Fierce Beasts together, resulting in significant injuries to both.

If Xu Yi hadn’t used a Body Rapid Recovery Potion, they might have taken a day or two to recover from their injuries.

Thus, Xu Yi and Lu Ke’s Bursting Flame is effective against multiple Fierce Beasts.

The secret skill can be considered a group attack.

"Alright, let’s continue looking for a 10-level Fierce Beast and test the Ice Seal effect," Xu Yi said to Lu Ke, and they moved forward.

Previously, Xu Yi had kept the burned Brain Crystal, which only had minor loss, retaining about 90% of its telekinesis.

This kind of Brain Crystal is considered high quality.

Unfortunately, they didn’t encounter a 10-level Fierce Beast by nightfall.

Then, they set up a tent at a chosen location.

Subsequently, Xu Yi scouted around the area.

Now, Xu Yi resumed recording plants.
