Gao Wu: Become stronger by grinding Erlang Shen's talents

Chapter 884 The Eclipse Emperor (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
The burly man in black armor said in a daze:

"This……"

"Did I read that correctly?"

"A fifth-realm being of the Abyss Clan was actually killed by him despite being beyond his realm?!"

"Is it possible to kill a fifth-level Universe Realm cultivator even without seventh-tier skills?"

"This is completely contrary to my common sense!!"

The woman in blue armor also took a deep breath and said:
"It's perfectly normal that you haven't seen it before."

"I can confirm that this is a top genius."

"An ordinary star-domain level genius, after cultivating to the peak of the Star Evolution Realm, and then possessing a seventh-order martial arts skill."

"Only by possessing these two standards can one have the ability to transcend boundaries and fight against the five realms of the universe."

"The slightly stronger ones are even capable of fighting against beings at the fifth level of the universe among the Abyss Clan."

"Top-tier star-domain geniuses possess exceptional physical attributes, such as having two abilities or having awakened spatial talents."

"Even without seventh-tier skills, with terrifying physical attributes, one can still fight across realms."

"But defeating and killing are two completely different concepts."

"Even in history, this is extremely rare."

"Perhaps only truly top-tier historical geniuses could achieve this."

"And now, the genius we see is such a top-tier existence."

The burly, black-armored man suddenly suggested:
"How about we go and get to know this genius?"

The woman in blue armor nodded and said, "I think it's a good idea."

"In the Abyss Secret Realm, getting to know another genius makes you a little safer, and they might even be able to offer some help."

……

After much effort, Lin Qi collected a large number of rare and precious materials into the Source Core World.

The quantity of rare and precious materials among them far exceeded his expectations.

As expected of the Abyss Clan, one of the Five Realms of the Universe, they have lived for countless years and accumulated an astonishing amount of treasures.

Even if you only harvest one-tenth, it's still a huge gain.

Lynch felt he had hit the jackpot.

Then he looked at the large number of black tokens floating in front of him, all of which were Abyss Tokens.

There are a total of 48 pieces.

The quantity can be described as very large.

He suddenly had many more Abyss Tokens on him.

"If I kill a few more people at the fifth level of the Universe Realm, will I be able to collect 10000 Abyss Tokens?"

This thought suddenly popped into Lin Qi's mind.

He then shook his head.

Beings at the fifth level of the universe are not so easy to kill.

Even within the same realm, there are differences in strength.

What if we become careless because of this and encounter an even stronger being from the fifth realm of the universe?

They might very well lose their lives.

"call!"

Lin Qi exhaled, trying to calm himself down.

He is not strong enough yet; he only managed to kill a being at the fifth level of the universe by sheer luck.

According to the information from his second senior brother, Horton, beings at the fifth level of the universe also possess secret techniques for fighting to the death, and can even self-destruct.

The self-destruction is extremely powerful and has a wide range of impact; once you enter the self-destruction environment, the damage you suffer will be extremely terrible.

If things go wrong, they could be taken away by the enemy's self-destruction.

In fact, they already possessed the ability to self-destruct when they were in the third or even fourth realm of the universe.

Once the source core is condensed, it possesses the ability to self-destruct; no learning is required, it's very simple.

However, the power of the self-destruction is far less than that of the fifth realm of the universe, and the damage is also limited.

The self-destruction of the five realms of the universe is the ultimate weapon.

In battle with them, you must kill them before they even have the thought of self-destruction.

Otherwise, you'll only be the one who suffers.

"I wonder how much a physical body at the fifth level of the universe could sell for."

Lin Qi then thought of the corpses he had collected, which were now in a tattered state but were still very valuable.

This is the physical body of someone who exists in the fifth realm of the universe.

Just then, he raised his head and looked at the sky on his right.

Soon two streaks of light appeared in their line of sight and quickly approached.

"Boohoo!!"

The last two streaks of light transformed into a man and a woman, appearing before Lin Qi.

"Hoohoo!!"

The woman in blue armor and the burly man in black armor landed and looked at Lin Qi, who was standing close by.

Under the sunlight, the woman only felt a domineering sharpness, mixed with a murderous aura, rushing towards her.

The opponent had just killed a being at the fifth level of the universe, and his mind underwent a transformation.

Both are star-level geniuses, but in the other person's eyes, there is a huge difference in their temperament.

After all, she wouldn't dare to engage in a life-or-death battle with a being at the fifth level of the universe before her skills had broken through to the seventh level.

The woman in blue armor spoke:

"Hello, I'm sorry for standing around here."

"We don't mean any harm."

"We were just thinking that if you were in danger, we could lend a hand."

"I just didn't expect you to be so powerful, that you actually killed the opponent all by yourself."

The burly man in black armor beside him also exclaimed excitedly:
"Dude, you're amazing!"

"Oh, right, let me introduce myself."

“My name is Mad, and this is my cousin, Shirley.”

Shirley, clad in blue armor, smiled and said:

“We come from the Immortal Sanctuary, and also from the same powerful family.”

Lin Qi nodded and said, "My name is Lin Qi, and I come from the Primordial Holy Land."

The burly man's eyes lit up immediately:

"So you're Lin Qi."

"I've heard of you; someone mentioned you at our party."

"It is said that you are an outstanding genius in the history of the Primordial Holy Land."

"It is said that they have become core members in less than a thousand years of cultivation."

"They also defeated countless veteran members."

"You're even more powerful than the legends say."

"How long has it been since you last met, and you already have the ability to kill beings at the fifth level of the universe?"

"Your progress is too fast!"

Shirley, who was standing next to her, also looked shocked after hearing this.

If he remembered correctly, the qualification battles for core members of the three holy lands were all held at roughly the same time.

Only a few hundred years have passed.

He broke through from the third to the fourth realm of the universe, gaining the ability to kill those at the fifth realm of the universe.

This talent...

She had only seen them in history.

After a moment, the two calmed down, and Shirley asked:

"Lin Qi, you're not feeling well right now."

"Would you like to join us?"

"Although you have the ability to kill beings at the fifth level of the universe, you are still in great danger."

"Although this is Continent 98, there are still powerful beings from other races here."

“Before Mad and I met a genius from the Destroyer Clan who had mastered a seventh-tier skill and possessed extremely strong mental power.”

"Extremely skilled in mental attacks and illusions."

"Several geniuses of our human race have died at his hands."

"He also has a record of killing beings at the fifth level of the universe."

"It is said that when he casts an illusion, even beings of the fifth level of the universe from the Abyss Clan will fall for it and be easily killed by him."

"In addition, there are geniuses from the Prison Clan, the Demon Clan, the Insect Clan, the Crystal Clan, and other races."

Lin Qi shook his head and declined, saying, "Thanks for the reminder, but I can do it alone."

“I have a pet, so it’s safer for the two of us to be together.”

Shirley wasn't disappointed by Lin Qi's rejection and still smiled:
"That's right, you're very strong."

"Your Star-Devouring Beast doesn't seem to be weak either."

"Your combination looks much better than the two of us."

Lin Qi nodded; he had already sensed the strength of the two.

They are all at the peak of the fourth realm of the universe, but none of them possess seventh-order skills.

Although Shirley is a Star Domain-level genius, she is still in great danger in the Abyss Secret Realm.

Unless you're in a team, meaning you start with two people, it's safer to travel together.

However, Lynch doesn't trust strangers and prefers to act alone.

This way, there's no need to distribute spoils, no need to worry about exposing your secrets, and no need to fear being betrayed.

Their combined strength is immense, and Xiaotian's power is considerable. Their partnership can be considered extremely formidable.

……

a moment later

Lin Qi and Xiao Tian soared into the sky, while Shirley and Mad watched them disappear from sight.

Mad sighed:
"I wish I had that kind of talent, but unfortunately I'm just a galaxy-level genius." "Not even a star-domain-level genius."

Shirley, standing nearby, said, "A genius like this can't be caught up to just by becoming a Star Domain-level genius."

"However, we are now in the Abyss Secret Realm, which is full of all kinds of rare and precious materials."

“We’ve been inside for decades, although we’ve often encountered danger.”

"But we also collected quite a few treasures."

"Perhaps we can collect rare and precious materials like Mountain Fruit and Mad God Grass, which can transform a person and give them a new physique."

Mad nodded and said:
"That's right, I must become a star-level genius."

After they finished speaking, the two transformed into streaks of light and disappeared into the horizon, continuing their search for rare and precious materials.

……

"Buzz!"

Ten thousand meters above the ground, the black, triangular-shaped Taixing opened its hatch.

Lin Qi and the Star Devouring Beast Xiaotian entered.

He sat cross-legged and immediately began to circulate his cultivation technique, frantically absorbing the surrounding source energy like a black hole.

When the source energy enters the body, it replenishes the enormous consumption in the source core world.

At the same time, the injuries inside the body are also recovering rapidly.

He has a strong recovery ability, although it doesn't reach the level of the fifth realm of the universe, where he can recover in just a few seconds.

It will take him a little longer to fully recover.

The world that took the longest to recover was the core world, where almost 90% of the source energy was drained.

This will take time to fill in gradually.

During his cultivation, Lin Qi was also reviewing the battle he had just fought.

Throughout the battle, he was at a disadvantage for almost the entire time.

In the end, they relied on the two types of internal energy and the killing move of the Five Elements Secret Manual to kill their opponent in one fell swoop.

"Next, we will continue to hunt abyssal creatures, as well as other races."

"Although it was dangerous, the rewards were great."

"I can't guarantee I won't have to resort to self-destruction when facing beings at the fifth level of the universe next time."

"Now that I have tested my strength, it is impossible for my combat power to increase significantly in a short period of time."

"There's no need for me to put up a one-on-one fight all by myself."

"It's more efficient and safer to hunt down the prey together with Xiaotian."

"This process can also hone your martial arts skills."

Lin Qi made up his mind.

I no longer feel fear when facing the existence of the five realms of the universe.

If he and Xiaotian join forces, they will be able to hunt down even more beings at the fifth level of the universe.

That's enough to collect even more Abyss Tokens.

"However, we should not underestimate the geniuses of other races."

"Once you possess a seventh-tier skill, you will also be able to hunt down beings at the fifth level of the universe."

"Their combat strength could probably be even stronger."

"If they team up, it will be even more dangerous."

"Especially the genius of the Destroyer Clan that Shirley mentioned."

Lin Qi's heart also grew heavy.

The Deva race is one of the most powerful races in the universe, and one of its characteristics is that it is born with a strong spirit.

They are all born spiritualists, possessing an unparalleled ability to control their spiritual power.

His control over telekinesis reached its peak.

Many of the human race's psychic weapons, and even their methods, secrets, and techniques for controlling psychic power, were learned from the Destroyer Clan.

The path to the rise of humanity is a process of continuous learning.

Through continuous learning and observation, they eventually created their own unique cultivation system and path, becoming one of the most powerful races.

However, the Destruction Clan was truly at his wit's end.

He fears no enemies who use mental attacks, especially those who use illusions.

This had absolutely no recollection of him.

Once the Heavenly Eye is opened, one becomes immune to any illusion.

If that genius from the Destroyer Clan dares to attack me, he's courting death.

However, Lin Qi also hoped that the other party would take action against him.

This way, he could accept all of the other party's savings without hesitation.

Such a genius would definitely have ideas about the ruins.

He definitely has a lot of Abyss Tokens on him.

With that in mind, he threw himself into the recovery process.

……

The Primordial Holy Land, in the core area.

In a luxurious waterfront estate, the Heavenly King, dressed in a magnificent blue robe and with skin as smooth as fish scales, sat on a golden smart chair.

A large screen was projected in front of him.

On the other side of the screen was a grotesque figure, its facial muscles seemingly devoid of moisture, clinging tightly to the skull like a dried-up corpse.

However, he was tall and robust, with a powerful presence.

He wore a magnificent dark green robe, exuding an eerie aura, and his eyes were black and red.

His voice was like a blazing flame.

The other person opened their mouth, revealing clean, even teeth.

Upon seeing the Heavenly King, he asked in a hoarse voice with curiosity:

"King Tianmang, what business do you have with me?"

King Tianmang smiled and said:

"Erosion Emperor, I heard that you and Thunder Lord are completely at odds."

"Your disciple once joined forces with others to kill Lei Zun's second disciple, Horton, in the secret realm."

"As a result, he severely injured you in retaliation, and not only that, your disciple also died."

"You then fought each other for tens of thousands of years."

"You two are practically mortal enemies."

"You two invincible beings are now enemies. If given the chance, you would probably kill each other without hesitation."

Upon hearing this, the Eclipse Emperor on the opposite side sneered, and his hoarse voice rang out:

“I truly hate Lei Zun and wish he were dead.”

"But that's impossible."

"As for his disciples, they are not worth killing."

"Even if he is killed, Lei Zun will not choose to be resurrected."

"However, I heard that he recently took on a very talented disciple."

"He has become a core member in less than a thousand years of cultivation."

"Lei Zun is really lucky. Why isn't such a genius my disciple?"

After hearing this, King Tianmang laughed and said:
"If a genius like Lin Qi were to perish, Lei Zun would surely be heartbroken."

"Will it definitely cost us everything to revive him, or will we be unable to afford the cost and be unable to revive him?"

Upon hearing this, the Eclipse Emperor smiled and said:
"It seems to be someone who has a conflict with Lei Zun again."

"It seems that Lei Zun has offended quite a few people."

"It seems you also want to take revenge on Lei Zun."

"Tell me your plan."

"If possible, I might be interested in giving it a try."

King Tianmang spoke:

"I just received news that Lin Qi has already gone to the Abyss Secret Realm to collect Abyss Tokens."

"We can send a skilled assassin to kill him."

"Anyway, the signal is bad in the Abyss Realm."

The Eclipse Emperor opposite shook his head after hearing this:

"That's it?"

Do you know how big the Abyss Realm is?

"Even if we send people to search for 101 continents, it might take hundreds or thousands of years to find them."

"And which disciple do you plan to send?"

"Even beings at the fifth level of the universe can't enter. For a genius like Lin Qi, the fact that he dared to enter the Abyss Secret Realm means that his own strength is not too weak."

“Ordinary peak-level beings of the fourth realm of the universe are no match for him, not to mention he has a Star-Devouring Beast pet.”

"And who knows, we might get killed by the Abyss Clan or some other race along the way."

"The risk is too high."

After hearing this, King Tianmang laughed and said:
"Of course I understand these principles."

"It's really not worth it to kill Lin Qi now."

"But the ruins will be opened in 350 years."

“A genius like Lin Qi will definitely go.”

"We just need to wait outside the secret realm."

"Moreover, as far as I know, His Majesty the Eclipse Emperor's 25th disciple is a genius with a top-tier physique."

"Now I am at the peak of the fourth realm of the universe, and I have mastered the seventh-level martial arts techniques."

"Currently, they are preparing to break through to the fifth realm of the universe, or waiting for the ruins to open."

"And you also have a royal venomous giant serpent that you captured."

"With this combination, killing Lynch and the Star Devourer would be no problem at all."
