Chapter 1114: Scorpion King’s Inner Pellet
“Fei’er, since this may be an opportunity, you should stay here to train.” Liu Ming finally made a decision.
“Master, I don’t want to leave you…”
Hearing this, Fei’er immediately pulled Liu Ming’s sleeve with 2 chubby arms, showing a look of reluctance.
“It’s fine. It’s not like I’ll never see you again. You can train here with peace of mind. I’ll come here in another day and take you away.” Liu Ming was also a little reluctant in his mind. He waved his sleeves gently and pushed away Fei’er with a gentle force.
There was a faint tear in Fei’er’s eyes. As he wanted to speak, a change suddenly occurred!
There was a whistling sound from the black valley in the distance, then a white light came and wrapped Fei’er’s body.
Liu Ming’s heart moved, but he didn’t stop it.
Yin Liu was surprised too. He couldn’t help but take a step back.
After the white light wrapped around Fei’er’s body, the light flashed and disappeared into the valley.
Liu Ming and Yin Liu stood there for a moment, speechless.
“Since your spiritual pet has been summoned by Fei Zu, we shouldn’t stay here anymore.” Yin Liu took the lead in breaking the silence.
“Okay, can Senior Liu Yin tell me about the way to leave this place…” Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and asked again.
In addition to the many traps when entering, this place was also hard to get out after coming in.
This was not to say that there was absolutely no way to leave. According to the information provided by Dong Hao, there were still several ways to leave, but the difficulties were higher than entering this place.
This move was naturally to trap those who sneaked into this place for life.
“When I first entered this place, I almost couldn’t get out… But this time, I came prepared.” As Yin Liu said, he raised 1 arm and chanted. A black light halo emerged from his palm.
In the incantation, Yin Liu threw the black halo forward.
“Poof!“
The black halo grew into a 9 meters black light wheel. A strange rune flashed out from Yin Liu’s mouth and flashed into the light wheel. It released dazzling light and emitted a low buzz.
“From here, we can avoid the rest of the enchantments and directly enter the tidal cold current. However, now that the once-in-a-decade weakening period has passed, the tidal cold current is not as weak as before!”
After Yin Liu left a sentence, he put on a golden robe, turned into a golden light and flew into the black light wheel.
Liu Ming looked at the black light wheel with an uncertain face, but he still followed in a flash.
…
About 15 minutes later, in the tidal cold outside the Tomb of Serene King, 2 figures, 1 red and 1 golden, flew out. When the escape lights dissipated, Liu Ming and Yin Liu appeared.
Both of them didn’t look good. Their clothes were ragged. and Liu Ming looked even more pale, and his body was stained with blood.
However, these injuries were naturally nothing to Liu Ming who had the blood of the Sky Beastkin.
“We are out finally.” Liu Ming looked back at the chaotic black cold current behind him with lingering fears and sighed a relief.
After they entered the unknown light wheel that Yin Liu cast, as Yin Liu said, they directly entered the tidal cold current in the periphery. The cold current was several times more violent than when they enter, and the cold vortex appeared frequently.
Fortunately, they were not ordinary characters. As they were prepared in advance, they passed through the front half of the cold current without any risk.
However, in the second half, some changes happened. They encountered a large group of wind roar spirits living in the tidal cold current.
This thing was a kind of spiritual beast born in the tidal cold current. They had no entity and low intelligence, but they were good at controlling the wind power. They had strong hostility to all living creatures. They were elusive in this environment, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
Yin Liu slaughtered a way out with the golden robe and the long black sword, but due to the constraints of the environment, he couldn’t care about Liu Ming.
Although Liu Ming had the Warm Sun Jade and possessed different techniques, he still encountered some dangers. In the end, he had to use the substitute puppet given by Qing Ling to draw away a large amount of wind roar spirits.
“What does Mr. Liu want to do next?” Yin Liu put away his golden robe, glanced at Liu Ming and asked.
“I’m a human cultivator, staying in the deepest underworld is always inconvenient. I plan to return to the Middle Sky Continent as soon as possible.” Liu Ming said after thinking for a while.
“That’s fine, I still have some matters to do, so I’ll leave first. If Mr. Liu returns to the Middle Sky Continent, don’t forget the promise between you and me.” Yin Liu said solemnly.
“Senior Liu Yin, don’t worry, junior will never dare to forget it.” Liu Ming said solemnly.
Yin Liu nodded, then he turned into an escape light and disappeared into the air.
After seeing off Yin Liu, Liu Ming thought for a while before flying in another direction.
…
A few months later.
There was a huge black crystal forest near the North Chi Sand Sea. The gray black crystal trees stretch to the end of the field of vision.
At this moment, a black escape light flew from a distance and flashed into the black crystal forest.
It didn’t take long for the black escape light to come to the center of the black crystal forest. A figure could be vaguely seen in the black air, who was Liu Ming.
After Liu Ming flew for a while, he came to an open space. Several black pits on the ground appeared in front of him, which were still breathtaking.
This was the place where Bi Yan and others were killed, and it was also the place where Void Spirit died.
Although several years had passed since the fierce battle, Liu Ming still had lingering fears when he thought of the power of the black crystal puppet.
The escape light dissipated. He slowly landed, tidied up his clothes and looked around as if looking for something.
At this moment, the space was distorted. A petite figure appeared before Liu Ming in a green flash.
“Greetings to senior.” Liu Ming hurriedly stepped forward to greet her.
“I didn’t expect you to come here so soon. Judging by your expression, could it be that you have already obtained the Nine-Turn Serene Core?” Qing Ling examined Liu Ming with a surprised gaze. She asked lightly.
“Junior was fortunate to get the item that senior wants and return from the Tomb of Serene King. Senior, please check if it is what you need.” As Liu Ming said, he respectfully handed up a dark color jade box in both hands.
Qing Ling raised 1 hand, and the jade box flew into her hand.
After flicking her palm, the lid of the jade box slowly opened, revealing a fist-sized black crystal, which was the Nine-Turn Serene Core brought by Liu Ming from the Tomb of Serene King.
“This Tomb of Serene King is unusually dangerous, otherwise it wouldn’t be called the land of no return by people in this realm. This is why I gave you 10 years to prepare. But after such a short time, you already got the Nine-Turn Serene Core. Good, very good! I knew I didn’t choose the wrong person.” Qing Ling’s eyes looked at the Nine-Turn Serene Core for a long time, then she let out a sigh of relief. A trace of a heartfelt smile could be seen.
“Senior has overpraised. Junior has indeed made a lot of preparations for this trip. Plus some luck, I obtained this core smoothly.” Liu Ming replied respectfully.
“I’m a person who will reward and punish based on contribution. Since you have brought me this Nine-Turn Serene Core, I will of course keep my promise and take you back to the Middle Sky Continent. Besides, this is an additional reward for you to complete the mission early.”
After Qing Ling said, she raised her hand. A brown oval crystal appeared out of thin air in front of Liu Ming. It exuded an intense beastkin aura fluctuation.
“Beastkin core, this aura…”
Liu Ming wa moved. This thing was a very high-grade beastkin core!
At least, he stayed in the Middle Sky Continent for a long time, killing countless Real Pellet State beastkins, and he had never seen a beastkin core with such a strong fluctuation.
“Good eyesight! This is a Celestial State White Luster Scorpion King’s inner pellet, which is very compatible with your spiritual pet, Bone Scorpion, in terms of beastkin power and attribute. Swallow this Celestial State inner pellet, your spiritual pet has an 80% chance to successfully advance to the Real Pellet State.” Qing Ling looked at Liu Ming and said like it was nothing.
“Thank senior for your generous gift!”
Seeing this, Liu Ming was overjoyed. He tapped at it, and the inner pellet shot into his Sumeru Ring.
Although he had never heard of this kind of White Luster Scorpion King, judging from the beastkin aura it exuded, combined with this yin qi, this beast was most likely a ghost creature unique to the deepest underworld. Since Qing Ling said so, there should be no mistake.
“You come with me. I will do some preparations before sending you back to the Middle Sky Continent.” Qing Ling nodded slightly. She waved her slender arm, and a green light wrapped Liu Ming.
At this moment, an indescribable ginormous pressure suddenly came from the air!
This overbearing spiritual pressure instantly made the yin qi around tumble violently.
Liu Ming instantly felt a terrifying feeling of suffocating from the sky.
Qing Ling tapped a finger into the air, casting a layer of green light in front. Simultaneously, her other hand launched a few symbols swiftly.
After the symbols merged with the green light, a layer of green light curtain wrapped them up.
As soon as the light curtain appeared, a gust of green gale swept down from above, tearing open a few space fissures and hitting the green light curtain like a storm. The light curtain swayed, but it didn’t break.
When the black crystal trees were in contact with the green gale, they were turned into dust amidst bursts of astounding noises!
TL: He just left Fei’er there? What if he can’t return here?
