Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Family Revitalization

Chapter 67 Shen Ping and Hong

In front of the life detector.

A number of martial artists gathered, all watching intently. At first, Hong's speed increased rapidly, and soon he dived into the bottom of the lake to fight the beast king. The two seemed to stir up the heavens and earth, causing a huge commotion. Even the island in the very center shattered. In the end, the beast king directly shattered the island, and a large amount of lake water poured in.

"Oh no! The Beast King is going to continue diving deeper, and Hong's speed is decreasing!"

"It's still dropping, the Beast King has attacked..."

After the speed decreased sharply.

Although Hong possessed a domain, he was quickly at a disadvantage against the Beast King's dense attacks and could only escape in the end. Although he had initially injured the Beast King, he was also injured himself.

"Brother Hong, your injury?"

Bald Thor quickly dodged.

Hong shook his head. "My injuries aren't serious. I just need to rest for a while. That beast king is very cunning. It knew that my speed would decrease in the water, so it kept burrowing downwards. It's enormous; the entire lakebed is its battleground!"

At this point, he looked at Shen Ping and said, "Master Shen, it's up to you now."

Shen Ping nodded, then transformed into a ball of flame and plunged into the lake.

Thor sighed, "Brother Hong, even with your strength and your domain, you can't handle this newly born Beast King. Humans are indeed at a disadvantage compared to monsters."

Hong Moran.

This is due to his genetic makeup, physique, and skeletal structure. On land, he is practically invincible, with no beast king able to rival him. However, he is no match for the beast king in the water.

Boom!

Soon, waves hundreds of meters high surged up on the surface of the lake, and in just a dozen breaths, Shen Ping dragged out the corpse of a huge beast king.

"Master Shen is truly amazing!"

"Master Shen was able to kill two beast kings in the sea more than a year ago, so dealing with this beast king will naturally be a piece of cake."

"Hong's era is over."

Many lawmakers spoke in hushed tones.

Thor's face was cold.

Hong, however, didn't care at all. He didn't care about any glory or being the first speaker. Now that Shen Ping had risen to prominence, he was happy to keep a low profile.

Boom!

As the Beast King's corpse was thrown ashore, the earth trembled.

All the councilors looked at the fiery figure in the sky with respect and a hint of fear in their eyes. After all, if the other party could easily kill the Beast King, it meant that he could easily kill them as well.

"Now that the Beast King has been dealt with, you are all free to enter the lake to explore. But let me make this clear: you can take the treasures, but if you deliberately try to kill me, don't blame me for being ruthless later."

Upon hearing this...

Some councilors frowned slightly, but didn't say anything more.

After all, Shen Ping's strength was undeniable; even the Third Speaker, the Ice and Snow Emperor, was far from being his match. Who would dare to voice their opinions?

Besides, the other party didn't say that serious injury was not allowed, as long as it didn't result in death.

Whizzing.

As Shen Ping finished speaking.

Some lawmakers couldn't wait to explore the lakebed.

Hong and Thor arrived beside the Beast King.

"Master Shen, if there really is a treasure, some deaths and injuries are inevitable in the ensuing fighting."

Hong said softly.

Looking at the lake water that had washed away the island, Shen Ping slowly said, "I know. As long as it wasn't done intentionally, I can't control that much. I'm just giving these councilors a heads-up."

Hong and Thor nodded in agreement.

Thor joked, "Master Shen, if there are any treasures when you're fighting for them, you'd better go easy on me!"

Shen Ping laughed heartily, "Master Lei, haven't you always wanted to spar with me? This is a perfect opportunity."

Thor quickly backed down, "No, I can't even beat the Beast King, how could I be your match? I'd better not go looking for trouble."

Hong couldn't help but laugh.

At this moment, Shen Ping sent Luo Feng over and said to Hong and Lei Shen, "This is Luo Feng from my martial arts school. Hong, you've met him before. He is a mentalist and his physical abilities have reached the level of a high-level war god. If you encounter him during this Fog Island expedition, please do not make a move."

Hong glanced at Luo Feng, "Okay."

Swoosh.

The two left to summon the councilors of the Limit Martial Arts School and the Thunder Martial Arts School.

Shen Ping looked at Luo Feng and said seriously, "You're not a planetary-level fighter yet. Our martial arts school has a weak foundation, so we sent you here this time. When you're exploring for treasure, be careful. With your Force suit, you should be able to protect yourself as long as you don't run into Hong or Thor. Call me immediately if anything happens."

Luo Feng replied gratefully, "Yes, Master."

Mu Yang, Qin Shan, and another inspector surnamed Chen walked over.

Looking at Mu Yang's impatient expression.

Shen Ping laughed and said, "Alright, go explore for the treasures."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yang exclaimed in surprise, "Treasure, here I come!"

While the members of the Yanfeng Martial Arts Academy were exploring the lake and the underground rock layer, he didn't rush in. The entire Fog Island was created by Babata, so there was no use in rushing.

Time passed little by little.

More than four hours later, the first Wood Seed Crystal appeared beside Luo Feng, and then the first battle began, followed by the second and the third.

Although the Earth Dragon King that had transformed from the white crystal did not devour it this time, the news of Mu Ya Crystal still caused a frenzy among major forces around the world. Mu Yang, Qin Shan, and Luo Feng were also very excited, as they had witnessed Mu Ya Crystal before.

Mu Yang and Qin Shan, in particular, broke through to the planetary level by absorbing Mu Ya Jing.

Therefore, the fact that a single Wood Crystal represents a planetary-level powerhouse is bound to drive people crazy.

Even though Shen Ping had warned them beforehand, there were still casualties. A war god from an EU country had his heart shattered by a member of parliament while he was trying to seize Mu Ya Jing. Shen Ping couldn't say much about it, since the member of parliament hadn't done it intentionally.

Without the Black God Set, the God of War was nothing more than cannon fodder in this battle.

Although Luo Feng was not a planetary-level being, he still managed to snatch several Wood Crystals using his powerful psychic weapons and Force suit. Two of them went unnoticed, and he also notified Shen Ping to come and take possession of three others.

More than twenty hours have passed since the treasure was unearthed.

Eight wooden crystals appeared underground.

This is clearly a big move by Babata.

Shen Ping rushed over as quickly as possible, but the aroma of the eight Wood Seed Crystal Rice was so strong that it caused councilors from various forces to arrive quickly.

Both Hong and Thor appeared at the same time.

Looking at the four remaining wooden crystals floating above the underground river.

All the members of parliament were breathing heavily.

But no one dared to make a move.

The world's first, second, and third speakers are all there; it's not their turn at all.

Hong didn't look at Mu Yajing, but instead smiled at Shen Ping, "Master Shen, I've always wanted to spar with you. Let's take this opportunity to have a match, shall we?"

Shen Ping smiled and said, "Okay."

Hong's eyes lit up. "Very good. I hope Master Shen can unleash his full potential."

Shen Ping said seriously, "I won't hold back."

To conserve strength is disrespectful to Hong.

Therefore, this time he will show his true strength.
