Creating gods in the Hunter x Hunter world

Just as the two corpse-devouring dogs were about to disappear from sight, night fell.

Fu Long and his group could see this clearly in the darkness.

Because the blood moon in the sky turned black, as dark as ink.

Chapter 429 The Contest with Feitan

A black moon, a black glow—in an instant, countless stone figures across the entire battlefield began to transform.

They turned directly into black shadows, and then solidified into human shapes.

Countless black humanoid figures fought each other on the battlefield.

"These stone figures must be people who fought here before. I didn't expect that after so many years, they are still fighting."

Feitan shook his head. Although those shadowy figures didn't seem very strong, don't forget that they were just shadows, beings that couldn't die.

The two corpse-devouring dogs that had been defeated earlier hadn't run far before they were surrounded by the dark figure. The two corpse-devouring dogs howled in pain, but it was to no avail.

They were quickly enveloped by the shadows, and you could see their flesh and skin began to dissipate until they became two skeletons, their life force completely absorbed.

Fu Long also felt a chill. Although Nian should be able to defend against the attacks of these shadowy figures, it was not certain that she could hold out for a long time.

This is awkward. I just hope the others can survive.

For Fu Long, they are safe, which is the best news at present.

"This is really a headache. I wonder how the others are doing," Xiao Di said, standing on the edge.

As for Feitan, he squinted at the dark figure in the distance, seemingly lost in thought.

"Let's take turns resting. It's really dangerous here at night."

Both Shizuku and Feitan nodded, and neither of them said anything.

However, as soon as the setup was completed, all the corpse-devouring dogs around them suddenly stood up.

Fu Long's heart skipped a beat; something bad was about to happen.

Because those corpse-devouring dogs weren't looking at them; instead, they were looking towards the outer edge of the well, as if they wanted to see what was coming from outside.

Fu Long also gazed into the distance and saw a red figure slowly approaching.

"They're Red Armor Soldiers," Fox Fairy also noticed the red things.

It does indeed resemble the Red Armored Soldiers of Sitank.

"No, there's a difference. The Red Armored Soldiers of the Si Tank Si, at least, have some life force, but these Red Armored Soldiers are completely lifeless. They're not the traditional Red Armored Soldiers. I guess the people inside are already dead." The drunkard sensed something was off.

Fu Long nodded in agreement; he felt the same way.

Moreover, these red-armored soldiers were clearly there to capture them.

"No matter what, the enemy has come knocking on our door. We can't let them underestimate us, can we?"

Feitan glanced at the border and said, "Should we go out and test their strength?"

Fu Long also glanced at Feitan. The so-called "going out" was directed at him. Clearly, Feitan wanted to settle the score with him here in this way.

If two people fight, someone will always get hurt, but this method can minimize the damage.

"Sure, but I have the advantage, since I know the weaknesses of these Red Armor soldiers."

"It doesn't matter, this kind of competition is what makes it interesting."

Fu Long also gestured for the others to wait there, and then the immortal body appeared in conjunction with the nine-headed skull.

The flaming wheels under his feet were a must, and he held a demon-slaying staff in his hand.

To be honest, Fu Long felt that in a place like this, a weapon like the Soul-Hook Lock might be more useful, but unfortunately, he didn't have one on hand.

Feitan was also ready, and the two of them stepped out of the safe zone.

Fu Long immediately felt a suppressive force.

The battlefield at night is not something that living people can fight against. The two dark figures who were nearby seemed to have sensed that Fu Long and the others had come out, so they rushed towards them, as if they wanted to take down the two living people first.

Zhou, with his demon-slaying staff surrounded by spiritual power, slashed at one of the dark figures.

*Poof*, the dark shadow dispersed. It seems that telekinesis can indeed damage the shadow.

Feitan also killed another dark figure with a single sword strike, but only let out a tsk.

Clearly, the cost was much greater than he had imagined.

"Then, come on." Feitan finished speaking and flashed to the front of the Red Armored Soldier, but Fu Long did not move.

He wanted to see how Feitan would fight his opponent.

Feitan's longsword swiftly landed on the leading red-armored soldier.

With a series of clanging sounds, he unleashed more than a dozen sword strikes in an instant, all of which hit their mark, yet the red-armored soldier suffered no injury whatsoever.

After all, the claim that those red-armored warriors were immune to swords and spears wasn't a lie.

"It really is quite tough, since that's the case..."

Feitan also began to use his special move.

Before doing so, he had to put on protective clothing and then begin chanting the incantation.

"Oh dear, this is troublesome. Feitan and the others won't destroy our safe haven, will they?" Shizuku said from behind.

Fu Long instantly teleported to the front of the safe zone, a phantom image appearing behind him.

Princess Iron Fan, if Feitan's special move is truly effective, then once it involves this safe area, there is still a possibility of him taking precautions.

A small sun seemed to have appeared in the sky, and waves of heat spread in all directions, engulfing the red-armored soldiers in front of them.

Sure enough, those Red Armor soldiers did develop festering sores.

It seems that the so-called fire- and water-resistant red armor has its limits; once those limits are exceeded, it will be burned.

Just like Feitan now, the opponent doesn't even have a chance to defend.

Not only were the red-armored soldiers burned, but the surrounding shadows were also affected. Those shadows tumbled and disappeared in the powerful flames.

Feitan seemed to be controlling his Nen, but in the end, the flames still headed towards Fu Long and the others.

"Oh dear, this is going to be troublesome." Little Drop took a few steps back.

She had witnessed Feitan's ultimate attack and almost died from it before, so she was traumatized by it.

Fu Long smiled slightly, and Billian and the others remained completely calm.

The illusory figure behind Fu Long—Princess Iron Fan made her move at this moment.

With a single wave of his banana leaf fan, the flames vanished, leaving only a small fireball around Feitan, resembling a miniature sun.

However, the fireball's power has been reduced.

Fu Long believed that if he used his fan again, he could definitely extinguish all the flames on Feitan's body.

“Looks good.” Fu Long retreated to safety.

Feitan also stopped, the flames on his body extinguished, and he quickly retreated.

"That move just now really countered me."

Fu Long nodded. That's right, the Banana Leaf Fan is the perfect counter to fire.

Feitan won the attack, but also lost the match.

Chapter 430 Finding Team Members

The five corpse-devouring dogs continued their journey across the land.

The crimson moon hangs high in the sky, but this is morning. The most terrifying time is at night when the black moon hangs in the sky.

If a safe spot hadn't been found, I doubt anyone would have been able to hold out.

After all, a night of fighting makes it difficult to be completely flawless, both in terms of the depletion of one's Nen and in terms of defense.

"I hope everyone else finds a safe place too." Little Drop prayed for the others the whole way.

"It's not a big problem. I've tried it before. If we can clear out those shadowy figures around us, we can create a temporary safe space. They should have that capability."

Feitan analyzed the situation calmly, and Fu Long nodded in agreement.

The remaining members of the Phantom Troupe are not weaklings; as long as they don't court death, they should be fine.

That's why Fu Long had Xiao Shou bring out two more corpse-devouring dogs, so that if they encountered their own people on the way, they could be taken over directly.

"Oh, there are two people." The drunkard quickly detected two presences.

The corpse-devouring dog headed in that direction and soon saw the two people ahead.

"Hey, you guys are too slow."

Even when we were still quite far away, we could hear someone shouting, and there was also someone jumping up and down.

It was Phinks, and the person sitting cross-legged on the ground beside him, with a calm expression, was none other than Franklin.

The two of them found each other.

This place isn't exactly safe either; it seems they managed to hold out all night.

Fu Long and his group approached.

"It's good that you ran into them, Shizuku. I was really worried about you." Phinks looked at Shizuku. Shizuku was probably the weakest member of the entire Phantom Troupe now, so it was good that she was alright.

"Finx, Franklin, it's so good to see you're alright. How did you manage yesterday?"

Finks gave a brief description, explaining that the two of them had indeed fought all night yesterday, managing to open up this safe zone and hold out until now.

They're resting now, mainly because they're exhausted after a night of fighting.

"Alright, let's keep going. I wonder how the commander and the others are doing. They should be alright, right?" Feitan interrupted them in time.

"Tch, you're always so calm." Phinks, who was on good terms with Feitan, muttered something before getting on a corpse-eating dog with Franklin and traveling together.

Fu Long shook his head. It seemed that the Phantom Troupe members were all fine, but it was uncertain where they would end up.

"Wait a minute." At this moment, the drunkard suddenly called out to stop the group.
