Chapter 2308 Perfected Five Elements! Ninth Level Cosmos Stage! (2)
"Do you still expect me to invite you for dinner?" w.a.n.g Teng said.

"No, no need!" Shadow Nine and Shadow Eleven quickly shook their heads.
"Then hurry up and leave." w.a.n.g Teng waved his hand, lifting the seals within them, urging them to go.
"We"re leaving now." Shadow Nine and Shadow Eleven exchanged a glance, hesitating.
"Go! Go! Don"t make me change my mind." w.a.n.g Teng impatiently waved his hand.
Finally, Shadow Nine and Shadow Eleven stopped hesitating and were about to leave…
"Wait!" w.a.n.g Teng suddenly said.
The two a.s.sa.s.sins: …
Sure enough, this guy was just playing with them. He never intended to let them go!
"Let"s exchange contact information so I can find you easily in the future," w.a.n.g Teng suggested.
"Exchange… exchange contact information? Just like that?" Shadow Nine and Shadow Eleven felt a bit confused and asked.
"Hurry up. Are you two really the elite of the Shadow Fortress? Why do you seem a bit dim-witted?" w.a.n.g Teng said impatiently.
The two of them were speechless.
Dim-witted?
If this guy played by the rules, there was no way they would be caught off guard like this!
But in the end, they reluctantly exchanged contact information, then looked at w.a.n.g Teng.
"Well, very good!" w.a.n.g Teng had Round Ball add their contact information, nodded in satisfaction, and then waved his hand. "Go! Go! Keep in touch if anything comes up."
"Why would we keep in touch with you!" Shadow Nine and Shadow Eleven complained secretly. Then, they turned around and fled quickly.
Transforming into streaks of light, they soared into the sky, disappearing from w.a.n.g Teng"s sight in an instant, afraid that he might change his mind.
"Why run so fast? I"m not going to eat you," w.a.n.g Teng shook his head.
"You might not eat people, but in their eyes, you"re probably scarier than someone who does," Round Ball laughed heartily.
…
On the other side, Shadow Nine and Shadow Eleven flew a considerable distance, making sure that w.a.n.g Teng didn"t pursue them before slowly descending.
The two of them exchanged glances, their expressions becoming extremely serious.
They continuously inspected the condition within their bodies, but no matter what, they couldn"t find any issues. This made their faces even more gloomy.
Not being able to identify the problem was the biggest problem!
They wouldn"t forget the involuntary situation they experienced just now.
w.a.n.g Teng allowed them to leave, and they didn"t dare to ask more questions. Being able to leave was already considered fortunate.
However, that didn"t mean they forgot about the issue.
"What should we do?" Shadow Eleven asked, "That guy definitely planted some kind of seed in us that can control our minds."
"Yeah," Shadow Nine nodded, frowning. "But we still can"t find the problem, which is the most challenging part."
"Can we go back and ask Shadow Jade King for help?" Shadow Eleven suggested.
"Do you want to die?" Shadow Nine coldly remarked. "With our current situation, if we can"t identify the problem, it"s a dead end."
"I…" Shadow Eleven"s face slightly paled, and he sighed, "So, are we just going to let ourselves be controlled like this?"
"Until we find a solution, we can only do this for now," Shadow Nine"s gaze flickered, speaking in a deep voice. "I hadn"t figured it out just now, but suddenly it became clear to me."
"What did you understand?" Shadow Eleven asked.
"Why are you so foolish?" Shadow Nine glared at him impatiently, saying, "He let us go, not out of genuine kindness, but because he wants us to act as his insiders. When he wants information about the Shadow Fortress or wants us to do something, he only needs to contact us, and we can"t resist at all."
"What you say makes sense!" Shadow Eleven nodded.
Shadow Nine looked helplessly at his teammate and sighed inwardly. Now, the other party held the knife, and they were the fish. They couldn"t resist at all. They could only take it one step at a time.
"Fortunately, he didn"t make us reveal the Shadow Fortress" techniques and skills, or even the secrets of the castle. Otherwise, we would only have one outcome – death," Shadow Eleven suddenly expressed his grat.i.tude.
"Yeah," Shadow Nine"s gaze flickered slightly as he nodded. He also felt fortunate. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Let"s go. Since we can"t do anything against him now, we can only look for opportunities in this ancestral land. If we return empty-handed, we"ll undoubtedly face punishment!"
Shadow Eleven seemed to recall some unpleasant memories, his face slightly pale as he quickly nodded.
The two didn"t dare to delay any longer. They immediately turned into streaks of light and rushed towards the sky, heading in the opposite direction from w.a.n.g Teng.
…
Time pa.s.sed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, another five days had gone by.
Within the Five Burial Ancestral Land, some martial warriors finally found their opportunities.
Some discovered scriptures, and others found battle techniques, including techniques and skills at the heaven stage and even the universe stage.
For many martial warriors not born into major forces, these techniques and skills were enough to enhance their foundations significantly.
Some found special treasures that greatly benefited their cultivation or had considerable value, even if they couldn"t practice them themselves. They could sell them for a good amount of universe coins.
Of course, with opportunities, there were also fierce battles.
People found various opportunities and treasures, inevitably leading to conflicts and disputes within the ancestral land. The increasing number of outsiders brought bloodshed to the once relatively peaceful territory.
Traditionally, those who entered were warriors from the five major families. Even if there were conflicts, they were usually not too intense. However, with the arrival of many external martial warriors, these individuals had fewer reservations and inhibitions.
w.a.n.g Teng"s main body and the martial warriors of the five major families were gradually approaching the location of the Five Elements Mountain after several days of travel.
At this moment, on top of a relatively high peak, figures descended. Unsurprisingly, they were w.a.n.g Teng and the others.
Not far ahead, a group of people was engaged in fierce combat, accompanied by the constant explosion of Forces.
"These mad dogs are willing to sacrifice their lives just to s.n.a.t.c.h the opportunities of our families. Disgusting," Guizang Yan murmured with disdain.
"Let them kill. If not for the Heishan Royal Clan, they wouldn"t have had the chance to enter our Five Burial Ancestral Land. They want to leave with the opportunities? It won"t be that easy," Yunzang Xiao sneered.
"Should we eliminate them?" Hengzang Mo suggested indifferently.
"Forget it. Our goal is the Five Elements Mountain. It"s not wise to stir up trouble along the way." Yizang Xinnuo shook his head.
"Well, I"ll let them off this time," Guizang Yan said.
w.a.n.g Teng stood next to them, watching the ongoing battle in the distance with a calm gaze. He didn"t feel the need to comment much.
If they wanted to gain opportunities, facing such challenges was something they had to endure.
Only he had to endure nothing, improving while not doing anything.
Speaking of which, these days had brought him significant gains. Whether it was the beasts killed by the martial warriors of the five major families or the ones dealt with by his clone, they all contributed to a substantial increase in his Forces.
Now, all of his five basic elemental Forces were at the ninth level of the cosmos stage!
That"s right, all five elements had reached the ninth level of the cosmos stage!
Such an advancement was nothing short of terrifying!
Just a few days ago, the maximum level of his five Forces was the seventh level, with the lowest being the sixth level. Now, they had all reached the ninth level.
Such improvements were beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
If Guizang Yan and the others found out that the beasts they had diligently hunted and killed along the way had contributed to w.a.n.g Teng"s progress, they might be too upset to even cry.
As w.a.n.g Teng observed the changes on the attributes board, a subtle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
It felt so good!
This trip to the Five Burial Ancestral Land, regardless of any other opportunities, was already worth it.
"Brother Han, why are you so happy?" Yizang Xinnuo adjusted the long hair in front of her forehead and tilted her head slightly, glancing at w.a.n.g Teng.
"Oh, nothing much. I just find it pathetic that these people have lost their sanity for some so-called opportunities," w.a.n.g Teng calmly replied.
"This is the pitiful aspect of lower-tier martial warriors. Unlike us, who were born with many advantages," Yizang Xinnuo probed.
"That"s true," w.a.n.g Teng nodded slightly, changing the subject and asking, "How much longer until we reach the Five Elements Mountain?"
"We"ve already arrived!" Yizang Xinnuo and the others exchanged glances, smiling mysteriously.
