Chapter 1302 - 1402: Let's Try It First

In just a blink, Tai Chu Zhen Ren stopped thinking about this matter; after all, it's not the time to dwell on it.

The most important thing right now is not to deal with the mantis-like outside wall creature, but to determine whether it still has any value for additional usage.

If the mantis-like outside wall creature still has utility, then before its death, everyone can come out and use it as a live target.

Alternatively, Ye Tianfan can collect it into the Chaos Divine Pearl, and after everyone practices with it, truly kill it here.

To truly kill this mantis-like outside wall creature, Tai Chu Zhen Ren only needs one or two sword strikes.

How to maximize the usage of this outside wall creature is what Tai Chu Zhen Ren needs to consider now. Fully capturing an outside wall creature is not easy, and if Tai Chu Zhen Ren can entirely capture it, it proves that this creature is destined to be a live target.

Moreover, this mantis-like outside wall creature is just an outside wall creature, without any thoughts, just focused on slaughter and devouring. So, no matter what happens to it, it won't feel pain.

Or rather, the pain felt by this mantis-like outside wall creature is temporary; once it's past, it doesn't retain memory. Thus, Tai Chu Zhen Ren has no psychological burden in using it as a live target.

Furthermore, considering its capacity for slaughter, by letting it serve as a live target before death, it would accumulate some merit, so Tai Chu Zhen Ren thinks there's no burden; he must turn it into a live target.

At this moment, Tai Chu Zhen Ren has already severed its leg and also cut off its other half of a lip, which means the mantis-like outside wall creature resembles a mutilated person now.

Looking at its resentful eyes, Tai Chu Zhen Ren wondered if he was being excessive.

After all, Tai Chu Zhen Ren noticed that this mantis-like outside wall creature had a similar level of strength and thus shared the dignity of the strong. Was this action a bit much?

But soon, Tai Chu Zhen Ren smirked; if it were a Demon Beast, he'd feel he was going too far, but for such an emotionless outside wall creature, eliminating it is a service to the people, as they require much slaughter and devouring to grow.

Therefore, as long as Tai Chu Zhen Ren thinks it's for the people's good, he doesn't feel excessive at all; he even feels accomplished.

Then Tai Chu Zhen Ren mentally communicated with Ye Tianfan, to see if Ye Tianfan could collect the mantis-like outside wall creature into the Chaos Divine Pearl, and then let everyone set it on the arena and line up to attack it.

Although Ye Tianfan had been observing Tai Chu Zhen Ren's actions within the Chaos Divine Pearl, he initially found it strange why Tai Chu Zhen Ren, whose power exceeded the mantis-like outside wall creature, didn't directly kill it but instead tortured it.

Now Ye Tianfan thoroughly understands Tai Chu Zhen Ren's purpose behind such actions.

A chill ran through Ye Tianfan's heart as he realized Tai Chu Zhen Ren's dark mindset; merely killing an outside wall creature would suffice, yet he mutilates it and lets them slaughter it mercilessly.

But upon reflection, Ye Tianfan thought about how the outside wall creature likely reached such strength by devouring many other creatures and possibly killing many others, so he felt no pity for it.

Even though Ye Tianfan knew they were wrong in doing this, having a live target was not only fun but allowed them to confront the creature from different angles, discovering if it had other weaknesses, since before, when researching pure spiritual power, Tai Chu Zhen Ren captured an outside wall creature, but only Sect Leaders studied it, while those Elders or those at Ye Tianfan's level didn't see it at all.

Actually, Tai Chu Zhen Ren had an idea, which was the power of numbers; if someone succeeded in harming the outside wall creature by some means, they could examine it and see if everyone could learn it.

If the method was a family or ancestral secret technique, Tai Chu Zhen Ren could negotiate a trade for a strong move or cultivation technique in exchange for learning it because having a secret technique to truly harm such creatures would make future exploration outside the wall much easier.

Even though they already have pure spiritual power, which is sufficient for use, it requires Ye Tianfan to refine it, and although Tai Chu Zhen Ren could make it too, his process is cumbersome compared to Ye Tianfan's straightforward use of Chaos Treasure Lotus.

Publicly, it's claimed the refinement process is his work while Ye Tianfan actually does it. If there's truly a secret method to handle the outside wall creatures and everyone learns it, exploration outside the wall would be more efficient and reduce deaths.

Then they can really form different teams, increasing the speed and efficiency of occupying territory outside the wall significantly.

Ye Tianfan wouldn't have to spend years outside the wall, although he's prepared to stay for decades.

Ye Tianfan knows the place allows his strength to advance quickly, and the longer he stays, the sooner he can return to his original world.

The final outcome is unknown; if Ye Tianfan leaves from outside the wall, the exploration team can't continue.

Though Tai Chu Zhen Ren is the outward core of the exploration, Ye Tianfan is the actual core, since the crucial Magical Treasure, the Chaos Treasure Lotus, belongs to Ye Tianfan.
