My Salvation Game Became true?!.

Chapter 449: Chapter 338: Oasis and Resource Points

Having returned to the shallow layer that served as a buffer zone between the Ghastly Realm and Blue Star, Fang You looked back; no figure was on his tail, and that prying gaze, too, could not or rather, was unable to penetrate into Blue Star.

The expressions on his face—shock, panic, the relief of surviving a calamity—gradually settled, leaving him slightly panting; yet he clutched at his heart, unable to suppress the twisted pain that surfaced on his face, suggesting that the life-saving means he’d used just before had brought about not a few side effects.

His flying speed had noticeably slowed.

He appeared severely wounded.

But after a short while, still, no figures had caught up, which was somewhat regrettable. Borne out of the principle of fully committing to his act and to guard against the Blood Emperor potentially possessing some manner of imperceptible spying ability, Fang You leisurely arrived at a Shuttling Gate and did not relax his expression until he had passed through to Blue Star.

"Cough cough..."

"This is really too exhausting!"

He was referring to the act. As an instructor, Fang You was no longer untrained in acting—he had even specially taken some training—but his co-actor was a Myth, a Demigod, permitting no slack on his part. Controlling the micro-expressions on his face left him feeling mentally drained.

Another part was attributable to the fight.

"I have to admit, the enemy’s ambush was powerful. If it wasn’t for my skillful handling of the Little Illusory, escaping would not have been so easy... though, I only used one ten-thousandth of the Illusory Shuttling’s ability."

In a blink, he could shuttle back to Blue Star from the Ghastly Realm. Were it not for the need to fish for information and to conceal his own, he wouldn’t have had to struggle to escape.

Although, it is also a fact that he couldn’t have bested his opponent.

Fang You slumped into a different position, pondering, "The combat strength displayed by the Blackwing Myth has improved by more than a notch since our last encounter. The gap between an avatar and the true body is indeed substantial."

This was partly because the Blackwing Myth was a long-standing Legend, even among the top echelons.

And since the baseline power of an avatar had been established, the greater the Myth’s accumulation of power, the larger the gap with the avatar naturally became.

Another point was the Myth form’s chilling and formidable presence.

Not only was the black flame an incurable blight on the bone, but the Blackwing Myth in that state seemed practically unkillable, no matter what.

However,

"The combat strength the Blackwing Myth revealed is not its true peak; it has already lost a strand of its divinity."

"Through this battle, I’m no longer utterly ignorant about Myth-level combat capabilities."

Before this, he had only fought an avatar; if avatars were considered units of measurement for combat strength, then the Blackwing Myth would have a power score of at least 4~5.

This is roughly the combat power of a veteran Myth.

So then, what about a top-tier Myth with three strands of divinity?

"Truly, Mythical beings are not to be underestimated. As for Flamefire now, no ’person’ stands a chance in a one-on-one fight against a top-tier Myth."

Although he meant ’person’ strictly within Flamefire, Light Red did not qualify as a person.

Citina, currently the strongest conventional fighter within Flamefire, would likely have no trouble defeating the Blackwing Myth in a one-on-one after her recent period of training.

And she was still advancing rapidly.

An Jianyou’s combat ability, in her Inhuman State, was estimated to be just over a "2", but this girl had not yet ascended to Mythhood; once she did, she would soon rival the top-tier Myths.

Black Blade’s combat strength was obviously a "1", and it was about time to develop a new skill set for Black Blade.

And himself?

Putting aside the power of his world and setting aside the ’Belief in Flamefire’, he estimated that he was on par with a veteran Myth. Include his abilities into the count, and it became hard to say.

His ability could be exceedingly strong or equally weak.

"And then there was the last one that appeared, the palm that could rival a whole continent in size, clearly the Blood Emperor took action, confirming that this high-standing being is in the Demigod Realm!"

Although, he had long suspected it.

A thousand years ago, the Blood Emperor was a Myth; and with so many years gone by without falling, there was a good nine out of ten chance that it had advanced further.

The Blood Emperor in his true form, such terrifying power was beyond his ability to resist.

Demigod!

He had at last caught a glimpse of it.

"Could I, using the power of my world, stand against a Demigod? Could Light Red, with her current strength, match a Demigod?"

With so little information, he couldn’t theorize.

Moreover, within the ranks of the Evil Gods, Demigod beings are far from the pinnacle. The endless blood shadows he had glimpsed that day quashed any thoughts of resistance.

"However, that blood shadow did not appear just now. If such a being took action, even with Illusory Shuttle, I might not have escaped, and I would likely have died once."

Whether that blood shadow was too occupied to intervene or simply deigned not to, for Fang You it was good news either way.

It granted him more time.

Yet, the Blood Emperor seemed consumed with hatred towards him, and might... no, would likely take other actions, while he was still reduced to a passive defense, still forced to withdraw into his shell.

"Blue Star has reached a bottleneck in its development; to rapidly grow organizational strength, it is necessary to explore other channels. Flamefire must become a true Ghastly Realm organization, a superorganization spanning the Great Domain!"

After finishing his assessment, Fang You then remembered he was still attached to Little Illusory and shifted his consciousness back to his true self.

At this moment, a ’ding dong’ alert sounded in his mind.

An Jianyou’s avatar pulsed with life, bringing good news.

...

...

Ghastly Realm, inside the Great Domain of Falling Star Pit.

"If the Falling Star Pit has boundaries, we’ve probably reached the edge by now."

Several figures walked under a dim grey fog, led by Mysterious Evil, and the rear guard was also a Mysterious Evil.

In the middle, Xu Yun and Liu Ying each carried a brightly lit lantern.

This was at An Jianyou’s insistence; both lanterns had to be lit simultaneously to prevent accidents, and any extra consumption of fuel was wholly unimportant to her.
