Han Sen sat on the ship that would take him back to Narrow Moon. Although he hadn't been able to bring back half of the ocean mountain, the Sky Palace leader had given him a ship full of ocean stones.
He was supposed to take a passenger ship, but now, Han Sen was on a cargo ship. The ship was filled with ocean stones, and everyone in Sky Palace stared at him.
They had seen students take things with them, but they had never seen one carry a ship full of ocean stones.
Although there wasn't half a mountain of ocean stones, it was enough for Han Sen to build a large base. Han Sen was happy with what he had.
The story of how he had split the ocean mountain in half was a legend in Sky Palace. The Sky Palace leader and the elders came to investigate, and they found out that the crack in the ocean mountain didn't have anything to do with Han Sen's power. Han Sen's strike was just the catalyst that caused the mountain to crack.
Even so, the story of how Han Sen had split the ocean became a legend in Sky Palace.
Many years later, when students left to leave their names on the ocean monument, they would see half of the ocean mountain floating in the air. They would ask what had happened.
The older students of Sky Palace looked very cocky, and they would tell the new students about the legend of splitting the ocean.
Han Sen's name and half of the ocean mountain would be forever etched in Sky Palace's history.
Han Sen knew the ocean mountain didn't have a crack. The stone bug must have been the reason it had cracked.
But when the ocean mountain cracked, the situation was too chaotic. He didn't see the stone bug. He used his Dongxuan Aura to search for it, but he couldn't find it.
"I don't know what level that weird creature would be. Perhaps it would be a deified creature." While Han Sen was deep in thought, Bao 'er suddenly summoned her little gourd out of her mouth.
Han Sen was confused. Bao 'er rarely summoned her little gourd, so he didn't know why she had summoned it now.
While Han Sen was confused, Bao 'er shook the gourd. She tapped the bottom of the gourd, and something fell out. It landed on the table.
Han Sen was shocked and happy. What had fallen out of the gourd was a stone bug. It was the same one he had seen in the ocean mountain.
"I was wondering why I didn't see the stone bug. Bao 'er took it." Han Sen watched as Bao' er poked the fat body of the stone bug.
The stone bug raised its body angrily, but it had no arms or legs. Bao'er poked it with her fingers and made it roll around on the table. It couldn't resist at all.
Han Sen was shocked. The stone bug was able to generate an ocean mountain, but it didn't seem to have much power. It wasn't even as strong as a Baron xenogeneic.
"There are volcanoes on Planet Eclipse, too. I can throw it into one and see if it can generate ocean stones," Han Sen thought to himself.
Bao 'er played with the stone bug, and Han Sen went online to search for information about ocean stones and stone bugs.
The biggest source of ocean stones was the Purgatory Sea. It was a strange xenogeneic space. It was an endless sea of lava, and there were islands in the lava. Those islands were mostly made of ocean stones.
But Purgatory Rock Sea had many xenogeneics with the element of fire. Many of them were King class, and some were even deified xenogeneics. So, digging up ocean stones in Purgatory Rock Sea was very dangerous. The death rate was very high.
Ordinary creatures were only able to dig up bits and pieces of ocean stones. Sky Palace was able to create an entire mountain of ocean stones. Only deified elites could do something like that.
All the information he could find online was about ocean stones. No one had ever mentioned the stone bug. It seemed that ordinary creatures didn't know how ocean stones were formed, and they had never seen an ocean stone bug before.
Han Sen couldn't help but look at the ocean stone bug on the table. Bao 'er was beating it, and no matter how much Bao' er tried to tease it, it just lay there and played dead. It seemed to know that the more it resisted, the happier Bao 'er would be.
Of course, the ocean stone bug didn't move. After a while, Bao 'er lost interest in it.
Han Sen picked up the stone bug and took a closer look at it. Its body looked like it was made of a grey-white stone statue. It was warm when he touched it, but aside from that, there was nothing else.
Its lifeforce wasn't very strong, either. Han Sen didn't understand how it had managed to crack the ocean mountain.
Han Sen asked Bao 'er to put the ocean stone bug back into the gourd. He would take it to the volcano to test it out. Perhaps it would yield something unexpected.
The airship was escorted by Sky Palace elites, so nothing happened on the way. Han Sen took a ship full of ocean stones back to Narrow Moon.
…
On a rather primitive planet, all sorts of ferocious creatures could be found everywhere. A man was walking with a knife. Wherever he went, the creatures were killed. However, their flesh and bones were not left behind. They were all swallowed by the knife in the man's hand.
The knife was very strange.
It looked like the spine of some creature.
It was made up of many segments of bones, and the edge of the knife was shaped like teeth.
The scary bone knife was about two meters long, but the man was able to kill a ferocious creature with one swing of the knife.
Then, he would absorb all the flesh and bones into the bone knife, making the blood smell of the bone knife thicker and thicker.
The man holding the bone knife looked strange, too. He had three faces on his head. He looked like one of the Destroyed, but he only had one pair of arms. His three faces were different from those of the Destroyed.
Ordinary Destroyed had three faces. In the middle, there was a bird's head. On the sides, there was a man's face and a woman's face.
But this man's three faces were all men's. The face on the front was expressionless. The face on the left was as scary as a ghost, and the face on the right was as pretty as a fairy.
This strange man kept killing on the primitive planet, but there was no boredom or impatience on his face. Life after life was reaped by the bone knife in his hand, but his expression never changed from beginning to end.
While the man was killing, one of the handsome faces looked up at the sky. An airship broke through the atmosphere and slowly descended. It landed not too far away from the man.
An armored man came out of the airship and approached the man who was killing.
"Barr, someone has paid you a lot of money to kill Knife Queen's student. Do you accept?" The armored man spoke in a voice that sounded like a robot.
"You know my rules."
The man called Barr didn't stop killing. The bone knife cut a beast's body in half. The bone knife was like a tooth, and it ate the beast's body. It swallowed it whole. The bone knife's murderous air grew thicker, and the color of blood grew thicker.
"This is his information. I can guarantee you that this Han Sen is worth killing." The armored man projected a video. It contained information about Han Sen.
Barr looked at it, and his attention was drawn to the video. After a while, his eyes looked strange. "I will take the job."
