166: How's university life? Starting the ascension to King level.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
In a rocky depression, sounds like pile driving continuously echoed.
In reality, it was not far off.
A giant Monarch-rank Spirit was providing a full-body massage service for Old Hei.
Old Hei currently maintained a diameter of 100 meters and a height of about 20 meters.
This giant Spirit was a full hundred meters tall.
It pounded fiercely on the turtle shell.
On a nearby hillside, Lin Chuan lay on a chair, playing a game and eating melon, his attention not on that side at all.
“Boss Lin Chuan, are you doing renovations over there!”
Lu Xiaomo asked curiously while providing healing and shields.
“Hmm, the neighbors are renovating their house.”
Old Hei’s turtle shell constantly shattered and then regenerated, which could also be considered renovating a house.
“Boss Lin Chuan, how’s university life?”
“I don’t know, I haven’t experienced it yet.”
Lin Chuan said casually. Having become familiar with Lu Xiaomo, how could he not know about her reputation as a female driver?
Lu Xiaomo: “…” ⁄(⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)⁄
She blushed. This time, she really just asked out of habit… After one game, Lin Chuan logged off.
After lying down for three days, it was time to move around.
Actually, he had encountered this giant Spirit yesterday and it had been pounding for a full day.
Lin Chuan estimated its star rank should be around five or six stars, and it was a defensive type, with defensive capabilities four times that of a normal Monarch Rank Yao Beast.
Otherwise, neither side would have lasted so long.
If it were an offensive type, Old Hei probably wouldn’t have lasted many hits, and the opponent might have been even worse off.
The outcome could have been decided within a few minutes.
Either it would have died from Old Hei’s reflection damage, or it would have been ganged up on and killed by the Underworld Eleven squad.
To make this oversized technician serve longer, Lin Chuan deliberately did not equip Old Hei with gear; otherwise, the technician would have been done for in no time.
Essentially, Golden Five-star Old Hei was soloing a Monarch Five-star Spirit.
Even so, after a night, this giant Spirit was almost finished.
Its originally vigorous body now seemed to be just an empty shell, continuously pounding purely out of instinct.
“Roar…”
Old Hei rarely let out a cry.
Keep it up!
“Bang, bang, bang…”
The giant Spirit pounded several times consecutively, then exploded.
How to describe it? It was like a strongman constantly hitting himself from both sides until he died.
Old Hei’s condition was also considerably depleted, his carapace was pitted and still had a lot of bloodstains.
However, it was healing at a visible rate.
Mainly, it was mental.
Although Old Hei didn't seem to move much, he actually had to ensure that the force was evenly distributed across his body, not allowing the Spirit to focus its pounding on one spot.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be training, but pure self-abuse.
Perception of attacks and control of muscles all consumed mental energy.
After feeding Old Hei a few energy crystal fruits, Lin Chuan sent him into his Sea of Consciousness to hibernate.
When he woke up, feeding him once more would likely get him to six stars.
As for White Moon, she was initially stubborn, clamoring to level up, but when it came to increasing her star rank like Old Hei, she refused no matter what.
Although energy crystal fruits were delicious, their energy was too potent. Eating one meant she couldn't eat anything else, and she preferred to eat energy fruits like candy.
One energy crystal fruit was equivalent to three thousand energy fruits. How long would it take to reach a higher star rank by eating those?
However, Lin Chuan let her be.
At least, Old Hei was reliable!
Lin Chuan got up, put away the lounge chair, coffee table, fruit platter, and even a parasol.
Subsequently, two figures rapidly approached from afar.
In a few flashes, they arrived before Lin Chuan.
“My Lord, we have not failed!”
Nether One and Underworld Two knelt on one knee, reporting back.
The aura around the two Spirits was explosive, far exceeding that of ordinary Monarch-rank Spirits.
Moreover, even after continuous fierce battles, there were no injuries on them.
Battles between Spirits only ended when one side was devoured. The victor's reward was to absorb the opponent to quickly restore their state and gain an upgrade.
“Very good.” Lin Chuan was overjoyed, then took out two king-rank soul pearls. He said, “The rest is up to you.”
“Thank you, My Lord!” Nether One and Underworld Two took the soul pearls and bowed in gratitude.
“My Lord, promotion to King Rank can only occur in the Netherworld, and the commotion might attract Nether King-rank Spirits from this area. For your safety…”
Nether One suggested that Lin Chuan leave first.
“No need, I can handle one or two King Ranks.”
Lin Chuan waved his hand and said.
If a Nether King dared to come, Lin Chuan would dare to kill him.
“Yes! Your subordinates will protect My Lord at all costs!”
Subsequently, Nether One and Underworld Two each swallowed a king-rank soul pearl and began their promotion.
Like two pebbles dropped into a calm lake, ripples spread out in circles.
In the air, the originally ethereal mist was instantly wiped away by an invisible force.
Lin Chuan stood a hundred meters away, quietly observing.
In the sky, the low-hanging clouds gradually formed two giant vortices, with the surrounding clouds being churned and drawn in.
However, even so, the sun was still not visible.
Perhaps, there was no sun in this Netherworld.
This scene reminded Lin Chuan of Long Ming's promotion in the College Entrance Examination Secret Realm previously.
Unfortunately, he was not in the mood to live stream now, and it would be restricted.
Moreover, it was one thing for a Yao King to be on friendly terms with you, as many Yao Kings sided with Xuanwu City; but for a Nether King to be like that, it would be truly absurd.
The severalBig Boss he had met before would be the first to not let him off, at least they would capture him for thorough research.
Although not live streaming, he could record videos. When all his subordinates reached King Rank, hehehe… “Crack… Boom…”
In the Netherworld, thunder suddenly erupted from flat ground.
There was no lightning, only continuous earth-shattering thunderous roars.
“Boom, boom…”
The thunder rolled, as if the sky itself was about to crack open.
Lin Chuan looked up, and it seemed that above the cloud layer, there were flickering bright and dark light and shadows, like electric flashes.
However, they were completely blocked by the clouds, not revealing a single trace.
Perhaps, in this Netherworld, thunder was not allowed to enter.
Your external thunder cannot control my Netherworld!
...Even before the thunder began to rumble, Beast Tamers above Diamond Rank in the Secret Realm had already sensed something.
Upon hearing the thunder, they all secretly thought, “Indeed!”
Anyone who had spent some time in the Netherworld Secret Realm would know what this thunder meant.
The birth of a King Rank, with heaven and earth resonating!
However, this time the thunder seemed louder than usual.
“Dean, another King Rank has been born!”
Xia Yuan exclaimed.
“Yes, apart from the endless Spirits in the Netherworld, there are no Heaven And Earth Treasures, yet King Ranks continue to be born. Where’s the logic in that?”
When it came to understanding the Netherworld, Leng Hong claimed to be second to none.
After all, he almost turned himself into a Spirit.
“Dean, aren’t you going to do something about it? Just kill it while it’s promoting!”
Xia Yuan suggested.
