Chapter 3890: Black Heaven Temple
Ling Han continued to roam around the Heavenly Clouds Mountain, searching for opportunities.
Unfortunately, though the Heavenly Clouds Mountain was huge, there was no trace of the celestial light anywhere.
Several days later, Ling Han returned to the Zhou Clan.
At this time, of course, all the beast kings had been cleaned out. Though the Zhou Clan had paid an exorbitant price, their gains were also very shocking. There were Celestial medicines, and a large number of dead beasts. These were all cultivation resources.
Ling Han directly took half. This made the Zhou Clan furious, but there was nothing they could do.
The outsiders were also envious, but even Li Chuang, an Eight Cauldrons, was no match for Ling Han. Which of them was a match for Ling Han?
Ling Han waited for a few more days, wanting to see if the empress and the others would come over, but ten days later, there was still no sign of the empress, Hu Niu, or the large black dog.
Helpless, he could only leave. He could still overlook the divine substance and Celestial medicine, but he was determined to get the celestial light.
He was sure that there were not many such treasures in the whole Mystery Realm, so he had to hurry.
Ling Han crossed over the Heavenly Clouds Mountain and entered into the Demonic Origin Region.
This was a vast place, and there were even more elites of martial arts here. The Zhou Clan wasn’t the only force with Core Formation Tier elites.
Ling Han kept a very low profile. Two days later, he arrived at a small town.
The members of the Zhou Clan had already fought their way here, and successfully occupied this place. Next, the Zhou Clan would first slow down, and use this as a stronghold to step onto the stage of the Demonic Origin Realm.
Ling Han first went to gather information about the Demonic Origin Realm. Where was it possible that a celestial light would appear?
The dissemination of information here was quite fast. A force would release a book on important current events every three days, describing the major events that had happened recently.
Ling Han bought a book, and flipped through it. He discovered that recently, a great many outsiders had entered into the Demonic Origin Realm. Of course, they did not just pa.s.s through the Heavenly Clouds Mountains, but also border areas like this.
Sure enough, the Heavenly Clouds Mountain wasn’t the only entrance.
Ling Han looked carefully again, searching for any traces of the celestial light.
Yi, there really was.
The mysterious Black Heaven Temple appeared once more, and according to legends, there was a blazing light of death in the temple. Any living creature that approached would be turned into a dried corpse.
What kind of place was the Black Heaven Temple?
Ling Han rummaged through the information again. He had really found it. This Black Heaven Temple had always belonged to the category of legends. Everyone thought that it was a fabrication, because no one in history had ever seen it before. It was said that it represented death, but there was also a Black Divine Willow that would bear a Divine Tree Heart. If one ate it, it could extend one’s lifespan by a hundred years.
A hundred years of lifespan was completely negligible to outsiders.
Because Cauldron Forging Tier cultivators theoretically possessed a lifespan of as long as two thousand years, extending their lifespan by a hundred years only increased it by five percent. Moreover, those who entered this s.p.a.ce were mostly young people, so they were far from worrying about their lifespans running out. Thus, being able to extend their lifespan by a hundred years was naturally a good thing, but it wasn’t so urgent that they would risk their lives for it.
However, for natives, extending their lifespan by a hundred years was enough to drive anyone crazy.
That was because everyone here only had a lifespan of about a hundred years. If they could eat the Divine Tree Heart, it was equivalent to being able to live another life. Who would not be tempted?
“Extending one’s lifespan by a hundred years isn’t important to me. What’s important is the light of death. Is it some kind of celestial light?” Ling Han murmured to himself. “However, when I go to the Black Heaven Temple, I’ll definitely encounter the natives here. Extending one’s lifespan by a hundred years is too important to them. There’ll definitely be a huge battle.”
There was no shortage of elites of the Core Formation Tier here. Though Ling Han had forced the Core Formation Tier elites of the Zhou Clan to the points that they could only watch helplessly, that was a special circ.u.mstance.
“If I reach the Nine Cauldrons, who knows, I might be able to fight an early stage Core Formation Tier cultivator, but I definitely won’t be able to now.”
“Even so, I have to make this trip.”
The celestial light was too important. After refining them, it could form divine light, and their might was comparable to an Imperial Technique. This definitely could not be missed.
“The Black Heaven Temple is… over 350 km north of here.” Ling Han continued to look through the information, “That place was originally a swamp, but four days ago, a completely black temple appeared. There was a black-colored light s.h.i.+ning, and then someone discovered a large black temple.”
“This is very similar to the legendary Black Heaven Temple, so it caused a commotion.”
Ling Han set out in a flash, heading towards the Black Heaven Temple. He was sure that whether it was the local cultivators or outsider adventurers, the number of people going would be considerably shocking. Thus, he had to hurry. Furthermore, a great battle was definitely inevitable.
After only half an hour, Ling Han arrived at the swamp. However, the following journey was extremely difficult.
Because there would occasionally be terrifying winds blowing over the swamp, possessing boundless destructive power, even those in the Core Formation Tier could only be easily torn apart. Thus, even if Ling Han could fly on his Tool, he could only travel on foot here. However, the ground was not necessarily safe either, because there were fierce beasts hidden in the swamp. Occasionally, they would break through the mud and rush out to attack.
Ling Han had not yet entered into the swamp, when he saw a s.h.i.+p sailing over. This s.h.i.+p was not driven in the swamp, but had rather sailed over from behind. It was not a wars.h.i.+p, but was rather sailing on the ground. Strangely, this s.h.i.+p should have been astonis.h.i.+ngly heavy, but as it made its way here, there was not the slightest trace left behind.
The s.h.i.+p was nine meters tall, and at this moment, there were two young people standing at the bow of the s.h.i.+p. They were both men. After discovering Ling Han, they pointed in Ling Han’s direction, and saw that the large s.h.i.+p had actually changed direction, cras.h.i.+ng towards
Ling Han.
F***.
Ling Han was astonished. ‘There’s no animosity between us, so what’s the meaning of this?’ He had seen a considerable number of profligate young masters, and quite a few of them had been tyrannical and domineering, but he had never encountered one as deranged as this.
He was not the type to be willing to take a loss. Immediately, he raised his fist and threw a
punch.
“How dare you!” A furious roar rang out from the s.h.i.+p, and a figure leaped out of the s.h.i.+p. With a sweep of his palm, the force of Ling Han’s punch was instantly dispersed. That person did not stop because of this. Instead, he charged towards Ling Han again.
“What a vicious evil brat, die!” That person waved his palm again, and an incredibly deep
palm strike surged over, like a vast ocean.
This was a Core Formation Tier cultivator.
As expected, they were all in the same family. These two despicable young masters were completely condescending. As an elder, he was not afraid to give way at all. He did not even ask about the injustice, and immediately came up to commit murder.
Ling Han used Imminent Skyline, and dodged this palm strike.
After advancing into Seven Cauldrons, his speed increased to another level, and he was
already capable of matching Core Formation Tier.
“Yi, what a fast movement technique!” That person appeared slightly surprised. He had never imagined that a Cauldron Forging Tier cultivator would actually be able to burst out with such speed, but this naturally could not possibly scare him off.
“However, if you want to escape from me, Tong Yongning, you’re dreaming!”
That person was a tall and st.u.r.dy man who looked to be in his early forties. His face was
rough, and his eyes were like copper bells, exuding a strong murderous aura.
He set off in quick pursuit of Ling Han.
Ling Han humphed. Did they really think that he was an easy target to bully?
He pointed at the large s.h.i.+p, and instantly, the power of lightning was activated. Zi, a bolt of
lightning shot out at an indescribable speed.
