“Lord Geng!” Someone insensible approached approached to get in a conversation.
Pa , Geng Jing Sheng immediatley lashed out and slapped the person flying, directly going into the passageway, returning to the second layer.
Ling Han laughed loudly and said, “If you guys don’t want to die, hurry up and leave. Don’t ask why, I don’t have time to explain to you guys!” As he said so, he, Yue Kai Yu, and Guang Yuan also entered the second layer.
At the stairway of the second layer, there were still seven red-haired beasts guarding the place, but since Geng Jing Sheng was the first to appear, the seven red-haired beasts chased after him. Discovering that the three of them appeared, four of the red-haired beasts continued to chase Geng Jing Sheng while three others ran over, roaring at the three of them.
“What the heck are you roaring for!” Ling Han flew out. A sword light swept past and pu, pu, pu, three red-haired beasts were immediately sliced into bits and pieces. “Go!” He didn’t pause at all, continuing to charge forward.
The bug king behind was too fierce, and if it caught up to them, the odds would definitely be against them.
Behind him, other people also ran out. These people didn’t know why they were running, but even a Flower Blossom Tier elite fled, so dangers here were obviously extremely terrifying.
Suddenly, a dark cloud swept over and everyone was instantly shocked—it was a swarm of blood-sucking bugs!
Just when everyone was preparing to battle, a strange scene emerged. The swarm of bugs actually ignored them and flew towards the stairway of the second layer, and into the space of the third layer.
Everyone instantly sighed in relief, but Ling Han’s expression changed drastically as he suddenly shouted, “Get onto the Small Rock, full speed ahead!” The swarm of bugs entered the third layer… it was extremely likely to be because of the super bug king’s command, and although the big fellow might move slowly, what if the entire swarm of bugs carried it?
Yue Kai Yu and Guang Yuan also thought of this possibly and were instantly scared pale, hurriedly jumping onto the Rock Spirit. The large fellow didn’t flew, simply storing power in its legs, and xiu , leapt forward several hundreds of meters.
Flying wasn’t the fastest, only having advantage when crossing over terrain. On a flat stretch of land, for a power type like the Rock Spirit, the explosive power of its two feet was evidently faster.
The other people were all confused as to why the three of them were scared to that degree, even running away while riding a Flower Blossom Tier puppet.
Some were smart, thinking of how even two great Flower Blossom Tier elites were lost inside—the third layer possibly contained some terrifying monster. They hesitated no more, hurriedly taking out a Spirit Talisman and sticking it on their body. Instantly, their bodies sped up, and rocketed towards the entrance of the first layer.
Some people weren’t willing to waste one, moving along at their original pace.
Hu!
The swarm of bugs returned from the third layer. Countless bugs revolved around a piece of amber, carrying it and chasing people at a high speed.
The few people that lagged behind were soon surrounded by the swarm. The super bug king attacked, and one by one, those people were all turned into ‘dried people.’ The entire swarm almost didn’t stop, continuing to chase towards the people in front.
Weng, weng, weng, in the divine temples on the way, swarms of bugs flew out and joined the super bug king’s troops, making this army even more shocking; it also scared the sense out of those behind, running for their lives.
The Rock Spirit ran swiftly and very soon ran neck and neck with Geng Jing Yuan, making the Flower Blossom Tier elite’s viciousness erupt—he wanted to make the three remain. In a run and chase, you didn’t have to run the fastest as long as someone was slower than you.
Making the three of them stay would naturally earn him a bit more time.
However, thinking of how terrifying the Rock Spirit was, he gave up on the idea of attacking and focused all Origin Power on running.
The first layer’s entrance was already in sight.
Xiu, xiu, they entered one after another and then ran separately towards an entrance.
“Not good, where’s Lady Liu?!” Yue Kai Yu suddenly recalled something—didn’t Li Si Chan stay in the first layer earlier?
“It’s fine, she already left,” Ling Han said without thinking.
Yue Kai Yu was skeptical, but since Ling Han said so, he could only believe it.
In a short while, others fled from the entrance; after a few seconds, swarms upon swarms of blood-sucking bugs flew out, as if covering heaven and earth. And at the end, several hundreds of fist-sized bug kings surrounded the amber, serving as foil for the super bug king.
Hong , the swarm of bugs scattered, flying out towards three separate exits.
Led by the Rock Spirit, the three of them ran out of the divine temple within a few minutes and were now at the lakebed. This time, they had no time to slowly climb the rocks; the Rock Spirit ascended into the air and brought them towards the shore.
At this time, there were some people who had just arrived and looked astoundingly at the grand divine temple in the lake.
“Run, there’s a big guy at the bottom. If you guys don’t run now, you’ll be done for!” Ling Han shouted.
“It’s Master Ling!” Someone recognized Ling Han.
Seeing Ling Han run with such haste, some people chose to believe it, but some believed otherwise; not only did they not plan to leave, they were going down to venture. With a moment, countless blood-sucking bugs flew out, and when the bug kings also appeared, it would be an unavoidable massacre.
Chapter 486

In the divine temple on the third layer, inside the golden temple that was ten times smaller.
Eighteen iron chains locked a red-haired beast that didn’t move for a long while, as if a dead man. But after an endless amount of time, a speck of red light surged on its body.
It was a drop of blood.
Originally, the blood-sucking bug king’s mouthpart was stabbed into its heart, and once a drop of blood formed, it would be extracted. Now, the blood king was gone, and this fresh drop of blood could stay.
A miraculous scene appeared; as the fresh blood circulated, the red-haired beast actually glowed with vitality; the red hair on its body kept retreating, showing a dreadfully pale skin that stuck tightly to the bones.
The creature was actually a female, but she was now like a dried corpse, without a single hair. Her appearance could only be said to be scary and frightening.
However, after a long while, the second drop of blood formed, and circulated through her entire body. Her vitality was now even more exuberant as her skin became moist and smooth, while her buttocks and bosom rounded up. Long strands of red hair grew till the buttocks and covered her private parts, leaving a hazy view.
She was a stunning woman with red lips like fire and delicate features like a painting, filled with coquettish seductiveness. Pu , a pair of black wings spread out on her back in the shape of bat wings, which were each three meters long and without a single feather.
She stretched herself, appearing somewhat indolent, but making her impressive places stand out even more. Ding, ding, dang, dang, the iron chains rattled. She clapped her hands and said, “Trapped this lady for ten millennia, it’s been so boring!”
“Without the blood-devouring bugs’ suppression, these demon suppression chains can’t trap this lady any longer!”
She sent out her soul spirit in detection mode and suddenly burst into laughter. She said to herself, “Wind Wing Clan suppressed this lady but feared that killing this lady would enrage powerful clansmen who’d wipe them out. Simply suppressing this lady and using the blood-devouring bug king to extract this lady’s blood essence, not allowing this lady the chance to escape.”
It’s said that the Wind Wing Clan and the B
lood-Devouring Bug King entered into a contract, with Wind Wing Clan forever enshrining the Blood-Devouring Bug Clan in exchange for the Blood-Devouring Bug King’s suppression of this lady. Who would’ve thought that several millennia ago Wind Wing Clan stopped their worship. It’s no wonder that bug king burst into fury.
Strange, why does this lady feel that this isn’t Wind Wing Clan’s ancient land, but like it’s been pushed into some abnormal space?
Whatever, the priority is to escape! Then find that human youngster, this lady senses that there’s some amazing treasure on him!”
***
The three of them continued to run wildly, and only several hundred meters later did they sigh in relief.
Although there were many swarms of bugs, it wasn’t so surprising placed in such a large world, and the only strong one was that super bug king; as long as that guy didn’t catch up, they didn’t need to fear.
The three of them stopped to rest. The spiritual Qi in here was too abundant; they had to cultivate enough time every day, otherwise it would be a great waste. The Rock Spirit asked Ling Han for a few stone pillars and began to crunch and munch them down.
After a few hours, the three of them finished cultivating. Their tiers increased ever so slightly.
“The profit this time is truly great!” Yue Kai Yu took out a jade bottle, which contained the spiritual liquid. They didn’t know what this was, only knowing that it was definitely something good; as to how to use it, they could only stare blankly.
Spiritual liquid was good, but it couldn’t be eaten recklessly. In the case that it surpassed one’s own tier too much, then one could explode and die.
Dying from eating spiritual medicine—that would be too embarrassing.
Ling Han took it over and said, “Let me study it a bit, I should know how to use it. Let us eat meat first!” He took out the lion-headed and crocodile-bodied great beast’s corpse and began to raise a fire to cook it.
This was a king tier beast of the Flower Blossom Tier. If they ate the entire thing, it was guaranteed that the three of them would explode and die, unable to digest all the benefits. So, Ling Han simply cut off a leg.
The cooking pot wasn’t a normal iron pot, but a cauldron used to refine pills. To boil a Flower Blossom Tier beast’s meat thoroughly, extremely high temperatures were needed; normal pots would have long melted into liquid metal.
As a matter of fact, Ling Han also used Strange Fire, completely treating this pot of meat as pill refining.
He added several precious medicines inside the Black Tower. Quite a few reached a thousand years old, also adding a few Absolute Cold Ice Heart Fish—this pot was probably so tonic that it could make Spiritual Pedestal Tier warriors get a nosebleed.
Yue Kai Yu and Guang Yuan went to set up a tent. After they had set it up, Ling Han summoned Li Si Chan from the Black Tower, shocking Yue Kai Yue. However, Ling Han and Guang Yuan both said that they saw Li SI Chan run over, making Yue Kai Yu extremely puzzled.
When did his senses become so weak, such that he couldn’t even tell that a Gushing Spring Tier had run over? Besides, wasn’t it a bit too coincidental… they ran for their lives and didn’t choose a direction, so what kinf of a lucky coincidence was it for LI Si Chan to have also ran in this direction?
However, after a few drinks went down his stomach, he immediately forgot all of this.
The four began to eat the fish and the meat. Li Si Chan ate only a small bite and glowed with light all over her body again, having no choice but to sit down and operate arts to refine the tremendous medicinal essence.
A king tier beast of Flower Blossom Tier—how greatly tonic a thing this was!
Even Yue Kai Yu and Guang Yuan only ate a small bowl and had no choice but to stop, hurriedly activating arts to refine it. Only Ling Han ate bowl after bowl, just like an incarnation of Hu Niu the chowhound, almost making Yue Kai Yu’s eyes fall out.
He was sure that if he ate so much treasured meat, he would definitely burst.
Ling Han savored the delicacy but sighed inwardly. His spiritual pedestal was built too gigantic, and there was one on top and one on bottom. The accumulation he needed to increase one small tier was probably enough for other people to increase a dozen times.
This was the price that had to be paid for being invincible in the same tier!
Ling Han was troubled but satisfied, eating wildly, and very soon, the pot of fish soup was cleaned. He then began to operate Five Elements Heaven Grade Skill to refine the medicinal power.
Hong , his entire body burst forth with divine light, and a drastic change was happening on the inside.
The Indestructible Heaven Scroll was activated and in the process of increasing his physique from Iron Sheet Tier to Diamond Tier, but the essence of treasured medicine needed for this step was too much—it definitely couldn’t be accomplished in a short amount of time.
The awkward thing was that the Indestructible Heaven Scroll extracted the majority of the medicinal essence and left pathetically little for him to increase his tier.
He wanted to increase his cultivation first, but the Five Elements Heaven Grade Skill couldn’t seize more than the Indestructible Heaven Scroll could, leaving him to utter bootless cries.
Whatever, a strong physique was obviously a good thing, and even if he reached the Diamond Tier, he would only have completed the first layer of the Indestructible Heaven Scroll. As to how many layers this art had, Ling Han still didn’t know even till now, because he couldn’t understand the following arts at all.
It was probably because his tier was too low.
Ling Han entered the tent and pretended to rest, but entered the Black Tower; he was going to study the spiritual liquid for a short while.
Chapter 487

At the time, the spiritual liquid only filled the stone basin shallowly—there was pathetically little of it. After loading it into the jade bottle, it only filled half of it. Moreover, Yue Kai Yu and Guang Yuan separated it into two other bottles, so there was even less of it.
Since they didn’t know what the spiritual liquid was, Ling Han entered the Black Tower to prepare to try it out for himself.
…Inside the Black Tower, he was like a god—even if he took poisonous medicine, it could be resolved… that’s how it should be, right?
He asked Small Tower, “If I took poisonous medicine in here, I wouldn’t die, right?”
Small Tower trembled slightly and said, “If you want to seek death, no one can save you.”
Those words…
Ling Han took out the jade bottle, shook it at Small Tower, and said, “Do you know what this is?”
“It has a shred of heaven and earths’ energy, fairly pure,” Small Tower said calmly, but Ling Han could sense a hint of disdain.
It was expected, since it instantly devoured Primal Chaos Source Rock, being proud was unavoidable.
Ling Han paused, and then asked, “Can I take it directly?”
Small Tower pondered, then said, “No, you’re too weak, taking it directly will definitely cause you to explode and die. Even the power of the Black Tower won’t be able to suppress it in time.”
“It’s that powerful?”
“You can try,” Small Tower egged him on.
Ling Han rolled his eyes and said, “I’m your master anyhow, is it really good for you to urge me like that?”
“A master that can die from eating tonic medicine is too stupid, just the time to change one,” Small Tower said indifferently.
“Sorry to disappoint you, I not only won’t die, but also live for a very very long time, so resign yourself!” Ling Han said smilingly.
He shook the jade bottle and said, “Can I take it after watering it down, would that work?”
“Yes,” Small Tower said succinctly.
“How many times does it have to be diluted?” Ling Han asked again.
“About ten thousand times,” Small tower said.
> Pu , Ling Han coughed abruptly—ten thousand times? He originally felt that there was pathetically little spiritual liquid, but if it had to be diluted ten thousand times for him to endure it, then this spiritual liquid could really be seen as a small lake.
Not only could it be drunk, but even used to bathe in.
“Worth it!” Ling Han laughed loudly. As expected of the spiritual liquid of god realm; the effects of it were truly amazing.
He was going to pour a drop of spiritual liquid into a pond, but pondered a bit, then asking Small Tower, “Inside the Black Tower, this wouldn’t go bad, right?
“No.” Small Tower ‘shook its head’.
Ling Han continued to dump the bottle, pouring a drop into the pond, and then cupped his hand to drink some. Instantly, his mouth was full of fragrance, and his entire person seemed as if it were about to ascend and become an immortal.
The energy was too abundant.
Unfortunately, the Indestructible Heaven Scroll didn’t automatically activate and contend with the Five Elements Heaven Grade Skill for the energy. This meant that Indestructible Heaven Scroll didn’t want this type of energy, and it was impossible to increase Ling Han’s physique with it.
This made Ling Han both pleased and disappointed.
Obviously, this energy was abundant, but its quality wasn’t comparable to a king tier beast’s.
This meant that the spiritual liquid could only complete the accumulation of a tier.
Ling Han didn’t really care; at least before the Shattering Void Tier, all tier barriers were nonexistent for him. He only needed speedy accumulation in a tier, and having this effect was enough.
Spending over an hour, Ling Han finally refined the spiritual liquid. He took out a few jade bottles and dumped into them the diluted spiritual liquid.
“The original spiritual liquid’s energy is too fierce, whoever drinks it will die. This is the diluted version. You guys also take it easy. Brother Yue and Old Brother Guang can take on small sip every time. As for Si Chan, at most ten drops. Adjust it according to your personal condition.”
