23: Chapter 23 Derinkwater!

Deep in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

The next day.

As the sky gradually brightened, Allen, Linley, and Bebe all woke up from their slumber.

"Big Brother Allen."

"Bebe and I are preparing to leave."

"Are you really not coming with us?"

Looking at Allen not far away, Linley spoke softly, asking him.

During their chat last night, Linley had shared his thoughts.

He planned to return to Wushan Town to tell his father the news.

"No."

"You two go ahead and leave."

"I plan to go check out the core area."

"..."

Hearing Linley's words, Allen gave him a strange look.

According to the original plot, Linley wouldn't be able to see Hogg when he returned home this time.

Because Hogg had gone to avenge his wife and lost his life in the process.

Poor child.

Hopefully, just like in the original story, you will pull yourself together quickly.

Without waiting for Linley to speak again, Allen slowly stood up and headed straight toward the core area of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

He did indeed know the original plot, and he truly had the intention of befriending Linley.

But Allen really couldn't save Hogg.

Because when Hogg's incident occurred, Allen was still Cultivating in the Red Flame Valley.

Furthermore, Hogg hadn't completely perished.

Although his Physical Body had vanished, his Soul had entered the Netherworld.

Once Linley officially grew up, there would still be a chance for the father and son to reunite.

"So amazing."

"Is this what a true expert is like?"

Watching Allen's departing back, a look of longing flashed through Linley's eyes.

Saint-level Expert, huh.

When would he be able to step into the Saint-level Expert Realm?

"Squeak, squeak~"

Hearing Linley's words, Bebe's little eyes rolled around, and it gestured a few times with its little paws.

Just wait.

Lord Bebe would sooner or later become a Saint-level Magical Beast.

"Hum~"

Just then, the figure of an old man appeared beside Linley.

He also cast his gaze in the direction Allen had left.

At this moment, Doehring Cowart's mood was truly very complicated.

Because Allen's words from last night had such a huge impact on Doehring Cowart.

Saint-level Experts were divided into four tiers?

Newly promoted Saint-level Expert...

Veteran Saint-level Expert...

Peak Saint-level Expert...

Ultimate Saint-level Expert...

Doehring Cowart quickly figured out his own positioning.

He was the second tier of Saint-level Expert that Allen mentioned—a Veteran Saint-level Expert.

During his Peak period, the magic power within his body had already reached his limit.

But Mysteries of the Laws?

Doehring Cowart naturally knew about the Mysteries of the Laws.

He had also once wanted to comprehend the Mysteries of the Laws to continue improving his strength.

But before he could take action, the Empire he belonged to broke out in war with other Empires.

As a Saint Magician of the Empire, he fell during that battle.

Fortunately, relying on the special power of the coiling dragon ring, his Soul had survived.

However, because he had lost his Physical Body, Doehring Cowart had given up on Cultivating in despair.

But Allen's words last night had given Doehring Cowart hope.

"Can a Soul form also comprehend the Mysteries of the Laws?"

"As long as I can comprehend a certain Mystery of the Laws to the Realm of Perfection..."

"I will be able to borrow the laws of heaven and earth to condense a new body and live another life!"

"..."

Doehring Cowart narrowed his eyes and muttered in a low voice.

Did he want to live another life?

Of course.

If he had completely accepted his own demise, he had countless ways to make his Soul completely dissipate.

But in the past five thousand years, he hadn't done so, instead remaining lodged in the coiling dragon ring.

Why?

Because in Doehring Cowart's heart, there was still a glimmer of fantasy.

He wanted to find a way to resurrect.

Now, the method of resurrection had appeared.

Next, it would depend on his own efforts.

"Grandpa Doehring."

"You will definitely succeed."

Linley was right beside Doehring Cowart.

Even though Doehring Cowart's voice was very soft, it was still heard by Linley.

He looked directly at Doehring Cowart and congratulated him with a sincere face.

In Linley's heart, Doehring Cowart was not only his mentor who enlightened him, but also existed like his own grandfather.

If Doehring Cowart could be resurrected, Linley didn't even dare to imagine how happy he would be.

"Haha~"

"Linley, you also need to work hard."

"Grandpa Doehring believes in you; sooner or later, you will also be able to become a Saint-level Expert, or even a God-level Expert!"

"..."

Hearing Linley's words, Doehring Cowart smiled and then encouraged Linley.

He had been inside the coiling dragon ring all along, listening to the conversation between Linley and Allen.

Although Allen hadn't explicitly stated his Realm, both Doehring Cowart and Linley were very clear.

Allen was so knowledgeable about the Saint-level Expert and even mentioned the Mysteries of the Laws.

That meant that Allen was at least a Peak Saint-level Expert of the third tier.

A 24-year-old Peak Saint-level Expert!

Such talent was simply too much of a Prodigy.

It was precisely because of this that Doehring Cowart was worried that Linley would be discouraged by Allen.

"Grandpa Doehring."

"Don't worry."

"Although I can't compare to Big Brother Allen."

"I will definitely work hard to Cultivate and catch up to Big Brother Allen's footsteps."

"..."

On the other side, after separating from Linley, Allen headed straight toward the core area of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

As a Peak Saint-level Expert, even if Allen wasn't traveling with full force, his speed was not to be underestimated.

In just half a day, Allen appeared in the core area of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Then, a look of hesitation appeared on Allen's face.

He was certainly not afraid of the Saint-level Magical Beast here.

Compared to humans, it was even more difficult for Demonic Beasts to comprehend the Mysteries of the Laws.

In the original story, when the Necropolis of the Gods opened, although some Demonic Beasts participated, none of these Demonic Beasts had reached the Ultimate Saint-level Expert.

Even Dylin's three sons were only third-tier Saint-level Experts.

And Allen was also a third-tier Saint-level Expert.

As long as he wasn't surrounded by a large number of Saint-level Magical Beasts at the same time, with Allen's current strength, he could completely walk sideways in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

The reason he hesitated was that he didn't know which way to go.

The map from the Dawson Chamber of Commerce did not mark the core area of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Regarding the core area of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, Allen was completely in the dark.

He had no idea which environment was the most suitable place for him to Cultivate.

"Forget it."

"I'll just pick a direction and try my luck."

"At worst..."

"If I run into a Saint-level Magical Beast, I can ask them for directions."

After hesitating for a moment, Allen stepped forward again and walked toward the left.

He was not afraid of encountering a Saint-level Magical Beast.

He was afraid of not encountering one.

Unlike ordinary Demonic Beasts, Saint-level Magical Beasts had high intelligence and could even speak human language.

If he could get them to guide him, it would certainly be much easier for Allen to find a suitable Cultivation scene.

As for how to get them to guide him?

It was simple.

Communicate if possible.

If not, beat them up, then communicate.
