Chu Feng chuckled as he observed the beasts around him stopping in their tracks. He now held the tool to control these beasts in his hands.
"The opposing Super Visionaries probably didn't expect me to grasp their secret technique, did they?"
Without the Eternal Divine Eyes, an ordinary Super Visionary would have almost no chance of gaining the ability to control beasts. This secret technique was likely taught by Xia Jiuyou to the Beast Tide Super Visionaries, making it virtually impossible to be passed on. However, they couldn't have anticipated that the Eternal Divine Eyes had the ability to replicate martial skills, including their beast control technique. This was a unique privilege of a Heavenly Visionary.
"This secret technique can control any beast that hears the flute, making them act according to the caster's will."
"The mission of the Beast Tide Super Visionaries must be to position themselves and drive the beasts of the Hengduan Mountains into Yuanyang City. Although the beasts are no longer controlled by the flute once they enter Yuanyang City, their instinct to attack humans still brings disaster!"
"But this also means that the Beast Tide Super Visionaries are dispersed into individual combat units, making them easy to defeat one by one."
Realizing this, Chu Feng recognized the excellent opportunity in his hands. If it were an ordinary Super Visionary, even knowing this information without the beast control technique, recklessly infiltrating the enemy's lair would lead to being swarmed and killed by the beasts. But since Chu Feng could also control the beasts, he faced no such threat. Furthermore, with the Beast Tide Super Visionaries spread out, they could be taken down individually.
Chu Feng's cultivation had reached the highest level present, and his Eternal Divine Eyes had evolved to the third tier. In a one-on-one battle, no Super Visionary could match him. These dispersed Beast Tide Super Visionaries were like crops waiting to be harvested for evolution points.
Activating his Eternal Divine Eyes, Chu Feng's vision extended far into the distance. Several kilometers away, he spotted three Beast Tide Super Visionaries at his three o'clock, six o'clock, and twelve o'clock positions, all within the range of his bow.
"One fifth-tier martial artist, and two fourth-tier martial artists..."
Chu Feng drew his bow and used the perfected "Dawn Meteor Arrow," shooting arrows at their heads.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Three arrows shot from the Star-Cutting Bow, piercing through the enemies' heads. The system notifications appeared again, and Chu Feng's evolution points increased by another two thousand. Once the Beast Tide Super Visionaries died, the nearby beasts immediately lost control. Since they hadn't entered Yuanyang City and there were no human scents around, they aimlessly looked around before retreating. Even those that caught Chu Feng's scent abandoned their attack upon hearing the flute.
Following this method, Chu Feng used "Floating Step" to traverse the Hengduan Mountains, locating and shooting each Beast Tide Super Visionary through the head. These Visionaries never expected an enemy to infiltrate their lair and eliminate them one by one, so they had no means to warn their allies. Chu Feng became a true hunter, while the enemy Super Visionaries were unsuspecting prey, falling one by one.
System notifications continued to pop up—
"You have killed a fifth-tier enemy Super Visionary. Evolution points +1000!"
"You have killed a fourth-tier enemy Super Visionary. Evolution points +500!"
"You have killed a sixth-tier enemy Super Visionary. Evolution points +5000!"
...
Inside Yuanyang City, the Super Visionaries from the three great families did not immediately flee to Guanghan City for shelter. Instead, they banded together to hunt the beasts, as killing high-tier beasts yielded significant reputation points. High reputation points promised richer rewards after the mission. Thanks to Chu Feng's help in eliminating the Yu Clan, some Super Visionaries gained enough evolution points to upgrade their Super Visionary status to the third tier, giving them the strength to combat the beasts. Being on the same team with a common goal, their cooperation was seamless.
Suddenly, a Zhao Clan Super Visionary exclaimed, "Look at the panel! The number of enemy Super Visionaries is decreasing!"
"What?"
Everyone was shocked. After finishing off the nearby beasts, they quickly opened their panels. The "Remaining Enemy Super Visionaries" count, which started at 72, now showed only 25.
"What's going on?"
They were all puzzled.
"Look, the numbers are still dropping..."
"24"
"23"
"22"
"21"
...
Every minute, the count decreased by one. It seemed less like a counter and more like a countdown timer. However, these were real people, just like them, participating in the martial world mission.
"Does anyone know what's happening?"
They looked at each other, all equally confused.
"Are we winning just by watching?"
"It seems so!"
"According to the system, the Beast Tide should only be the second phase. We were supposed to return to Guanghan City to train and prepare for a final showdown with the enemy Super Visionaries..."
"But it looks like the enemy will be wiped out before we even return to Guanghan City!"
"Could there be an internal traitor among them, causing this?"
"Even if there were a traitor, they couldn't kill so many so quickly!"
"Right, this death rate seems more like they're collectively losing their minds and killing each other!"
...
On the front lines, Guanghan King gathered a bolt of lightning in his hands, striking down the beasts before him. He scanned the surroundings and noticed fewer beasts.
"Have you all noticed? The number of beasts seems to have decreased significantly."
The national defender, Li Xiuyuan, and other martial masters had also noticed.
"Logically, this should be the peak of the beast tide. Why have the beasts suddenly decreased?"
Suddenly, Li Xiuyuan recalled something. "Could that young man have disrupted Xia Jiuyou's plan?"
Everyone's expressions changed as they considered this possibility. The beast tide, which should have been at its peak, inexplicably stopped. This coincided with Chu Feng's departure from Yuanyang City.
There was only one possible explanation: Chu Feng had stopped the beast tide.
"A hero from a young age indeed!" Guanghan King couldn't help but sigh. Even in his youth, he couldn't have stopped a beast tide alone. Chu Feng achieving this at thirteen meant his future was limitless.
