Chapter 863: Confession
Han Fei found another usage for the Divine Manipulation Technique. It could not only deprive someone else of their control over their body, but also claim the unowned soul of a dead creature.
However, Han Fei didn’t dare to extract the entirety of the unowned soul. Only no more than one tenth of the Clam Girl’s soul was pulled back by the Void Lines.
Nevertheless, the part that was extracted was still a lot.
Han Fei sensed that the unowned soul extracted by the Void Lines wasn’t as rampant as before and was acceptable. So, he claimed the unowned soul without hesitation.
About ten minutes later, Han Fei fully digested the unowned soul. He quickly looked at his information.

…
Han Fei found that his spiritual power had increased by more than two hundred points. He instantly grinned.
Great! As expected of a Sea Spirit! The increase of spiritual power is even greater than that of a level-up.
When Han Fei opened his eyes, Le Renkuang had already recovered. He shouted and said, “We need to get out of here. This place isn’t very stable.”
Han Fei looked around, only to see cracks on the wall everywhere. The cavern looked as though it would collapse at any moment.
Luo Xiaobai pointed at the green Star Shell and said, “This must be the source. Why don’t you claim it and refine it?”
Han Fei looked at the Star Shell. He had no doubt that the entire space here was established by the shell.
Han Fei instantly walked forward and laid his hand on the shell. He cut his hand and let the blood drip.
However, the Star Shell showed no reaction.
“Huh? You don’t acknowledge my blood?”
Han Fei imprinted his soul on it. In the next second, the scenes around them changed, and they were back to the sea. There was a tiny green shell in Han Fei’s hand.
Han Fei spread out his senses, only to discover that someone was flying on a boat thirty kilometers away.
Immediately, Han Fei said telepathically, Our battle with the Clam Girl seemed to have attracted the attention of the outside world. Let’s get out of here and pretend to be nobody…
…
An hour later, Han Fei and his teammates looked at each other on the Wind God Boat in bewilderment.
They had encountered at least ten teams on their way. Fortunately, none of them had a Law Enforcer, or they would’ve noticed Han Fei’s team.
Having run far enough, Han Fei’s team pretended to be hunting for treasures and searched the area.
After only a hundred seconds, someone passed by.
The man happened to be a Law Enforcer. He was surprised to see Han Fei’s team. “When did you come?”
Han Fei pretends to be stunned. “We just got here!”
The Law Enforcer looked at Han Fei’s temporary permit and the six-star waist tag and nodded. “The noise was quite big, but there was no sign of purple flames. Be careful!”
Then, the Law Enforcer left, and Han Fei and his teammates didn’t know what to say.
Le Renkuang said unhurriedly, “We seem to be quite lucky…”
Zhang Xuanyu nodded. “We were almost caught by the Law Enforcer.”
Han Fei said, “Let’s fly in the sky. Le Renkuang, you’ll fly the boat anywhere you want, but don’t be too fast. I’ll check our spoils.”
All their spoils were kept inside the Star Shell.
The moment he came back, Han Fei had already discovered that the Star Shell contained an enormous space with a radius of twenty kilometers, which was much better than the Sun-Moon Shell. It was even bigger than Forge the Universe.
Unfortunately, there weren’t many treasures. What Han Fei found and took out first was a Sea Token.
Luo Xiaobai remarked in surprise, “It’s the same as yours.”
Zhang Xuanyu was delighted. “I wonder if the token can only be used by one person exclusively. It’ll be great if we each have one. Han Fei, do you have any more of them?”
Han Fei rolled his eyes. “Do you think that these things are just everywhere to be seen? I suspect that this Sea Token was left by a Heavenly Talent who was killed by the clam demon.”
Luo Xiaobai gave the Sea Token to Han Fei. “You can keep it for now! Let’s see how useful the token is later.”
Le Renkuang nodded. “It isn’t safe to keep the token. Don’t you remember how long the Sun family hunted Han Fei for the token?”
Han Fei grinned. “Two Sea Tokens is a nice collection. I don’t mind.”
Luo Xiaobai glanced at Han Fei and asked, “Where’s the Bone Yard? What is the Sea Quelling Painting? I’m pretty sure there are no underground cities.”
Han Fei looked at Luo Xiaobai in surprise. “You don’t know that?”
Luo Xiaobai shook her head in confusion. “Should I?”
Han Fei laughed. “Maybe I’m just overthinking. Cao Qiu knows something about it. What I’m about to say is probably a secret…”
…
Han Fei didn’t keep it a secret from Luo Xiaobai and the others. They trusted each other after all the life-and-death experiences they went through.
Although this adventure was so dangerous that they were still uneasy, it was not really a bad thing.
This adventure informed them of the dreadfulness of the treasure troves and mysterious events near the Scattered Stars Island, which could easily kill Hidden Fishers.
The experience might not be a big deal to others, but it would definitely prompt Le Renkuang to train harder. His face was grim at this moment.
A moment later…
Luo Xiaobai asked in surprise, “It’s related to the fall of the Thug Academy?”
Han Fei nodded. “Yes. If my guess is correct, the Thug Academy fought certain people in the Thousand Star City over the Sea Quelling Painting and lost. Then, it was reduced to its current poor conditions…”
Zhang Xuanyu took a deep breath. “Wait a moment, are we going to compete over something that so many experts failed to get?”
Le Renkuang nodded quickly. “Right, the Thug Academy was crushed and didn’t get the treasure? Besides, Han Fei, your big sword is a Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasure? I always thought it was a Divine weapon.”
Luo Xiaobai and Zhang Xuanyu both looked at Han Fei. Zhang Xuanyu didn’t take part in the battle in the demon forest, but Le Renkuang had told him what happened. It was obvious that Han Fei didn’t tell the truth back then.
Han Fei smiled innocently. “Would you believe me if I say that Xia Xiaochan left it for me?”
Zhang Xuanyu tilted his head and asked, “Did Xia Xiaochan have a Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasure?”
Luo Xiaobai added, “If Xiaochan left a Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasure for you, she would’ve at least left a Divine weapon for us. You think you can fool us?”
Le Renkuang snorted. “Exactly.”
Han Fei scratched his head. “I knew I couldn’t keep it a secret forever! Fine, I acquired it from the Snow God’s Temple. You know the place, right?”
Luo Xiaobai nodded. “Yes. It’s the mission that you carried out before Xiaochan’s disappearance.”
Han Fei nodded. “Yes, that’s the place… Also, one other thing that I need to tell you is that if you ever acquire a high-quality Divine weapon, don’t let it acknowledge you immediately, or it will suck up your blood.”
Le Renkuang asked in surprise, “Really?”
Han Fei sneered. “People like you who aren’t even Hidden Fishers, in particular, can take Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasures, but shouldn’t claim them yet.”
Luo Xiaobai nodded slightly. “I’ve heard this before…”
Zhang Xuanyu didn’t really envy Han Fei for the Sea Quelling Bizarre Treasures. He knew that Han Fei couldn’t carry out their power anyway.
In fact, there were too many items whose power Han Fei couldn’t fully carry out!
For example, Han Fei didn’t dare to use Snowmourne, fearing that he would give his opponent an opportunity if his spiritual energy was all pumped away by one attack.
For example, the Needle hadn’t acknowledged him yet, and he could only wield it as a big hard stick.
For example, he didn’t know any usage of the Infinity Water except for turning it into blades.
And the Cosmic Sword hadn’t acknowledged him yet. Han Fei had been wondering if he should claim it, as it was necessary for him to have an ultra-quality Divine weapon.
However, Han Fei wasn’t sure if he would have to learn a sword technique if he got the Cosmic Sword.
Although the Cosmic Sword innately carried a sword technique, Han Fei knew that he was never good with swords.
Zhang Xuanyu said, “Acquiring one Sea Token is already so hard. I’m starting to doubt if we’ll be killed before we can touch the painting in the Bone Yard.”
Le Renkuang quickly nodded. “Yes, that’s exactly my opinion too.”
Han Fei laughed. “That’s why I asked you to improve your strength quickly! To be honest, most of the people who compete for the Sea Quelling Painting will likely be our peer Heavenly Talents. We’ll probably all participate.”
Luo Xiaobai exclaimed, “Huh? We can go there without Sea Tokens?”
Han Fei said with a smile, “That’s just my guess. As far as I know, there are 99 Sea Tokens, but I don’t believe that only 99 people will compete for it. I don’t know the usage of the Sea Token just yet, but maybe I will later. Until then, we’ll have to keep improving our capabilities.”
Le Renkuang took a deep breath and said, “I’ll make a breakthrough to be a Hidden Fisher when I return.”
