Chapter 4268: Dark Clouds Hell
Chapter 4268: Dark Clouds Hell
This time, the Nine Mountains Saint had to be domineering.
Even if there was no evidence, everyone was well aware of the situation. If the Nine Mountains Saint chose to swallow his anger in silence, that would prove that he was a weakling.
Then, the Imperial Clans would tear off their pretence of peace and launch a full-scale invasion.
Thus, the Nine Mountains Saint unleashed his most powerful counterattack. 'You want to kill my disciple, Ling Han, so I'll return the favor and cause you to suffer grave losses. Moreover, this is only because Ling Han didn't die. If Ling Han had died, my revenge would have been 100 times more intense!'
The worst off was naturally that old Sect Master of the Zhu Clan, who had been killed on the spot by the Nine Mountains Saint. However, the Nine Mountains Saint did not expand the scope of his revenge, and chose to spare the other members of the Zhu Clan.
And this time, Ling Han should have profited from this disaster.
That was because though the Nine Mountains Saint had destroyed a considerable number of herbal planets from the five Imperial Clans, he had also harvested a great many mature medicinal ingredients at the same time, and handed them all over to Ling Han.
-He naturally knew now that this disciple of his was also an alchemy prodigy!
These were the herbal planets of a few Imperial Clans. Though they did not have the highest grade of Saintly medicine, Ling Han still felt like this was surreal. He had made a fortune!
Ling Han first used natural treasures to cultivate. There was no need to refine them. They themselves were the purest energy, and did not need to be matched with any medicinal effects. Unfortunately, there were too few of these things, and they just barely delivered his fifth Stone Fetus to the state of Silver Fetus.
This, was far from enough.
Ling Han went to find the Nine Mountains Saint. He wanted to quickly become stronger. Being bullied and ambushed time and time again by the Imperial Clans made him realize that he would be beaten if he didn't have enough power.
If he was a Saint, what Imperial Clan would dare to speak loudly to him?
"Rapidly become stronger?" The Nine Mountains Saint murmured, "When I advance into Saint Tier, I can allow Regulations to enter my body, and forcibly use Regulations to improve your fruits of cultivation. It would indeed allow you to become Sect Master-level, or even Venerate Tier-level in the short term."
"However, in this way, you will lose the possibility of advancing further."
Of course, this was something that Ling Han definitely could not accept. Even the Nine Mountains Saint was just saying this. He was filled with anticipation for Ling Han. He was a potential candidate to become Emperor, so how could he stop at the level of Venerate Tier or even Sect Master-level?
"What else can I do?" Ling Han was unwilling to give up. With how big the heaven and earth was, how could it be that there was nothing that could perform a miracle?
The Nine Mountains Saint pondered for a moment, before saying, "There is indeed a place. However, that place is far too dangerous. Moreover, a Saint's power is also insufficient. If you head there, you'll have no option but to rely on yourself."
"What place?" Ling Han's eyes lit up.
"Dark Clouds Hell," the Nine Mountains Saint said solemnly. "This is a desolate land of heaven and earth. It's filled with all kinds of dangers. In the beginning, this was used as a place of exile. Many people committed serious crimes, yet they also had powerful backgrounds. Those who couldn't be killed directly were thrown here."
"But as time passed, someone actually built a city there, and that is... the City of Death!"
"The City of Death is filled with murderers and looters, all of whom are heinous criminals." "Thus, that place is naturally incredibly dangerous. Conflicts could break out at the slightest provocation, and people would be killed."
"However, it's said that the City of Death is very suitable for cultivating. It can increase one's cultivation speed by ten times or even a hundred times. Thus, there are many people like you who took the initiative to enter the Dark Clouds Hell in order to quickly become stronger." "However, many people died in the Dark Clouds Hell before even finding the City of Death." Ling Han only considered for a moment, then said, "I want to go."
The Nine Mountains Saint sighed. Though he was a little worried, he still supported Ling Han. That was because he too knew that the Imperial Clans had not given up on killing Ling Han at all, and a conspiracy like the Zhu Clan would definitely not be just this one time. What if Ling Han was not so lucky next time?
Hence, only when he himself was strong, would he be able to fear nothing.
"All right, you have to be careful," the Nine Mountains Saint reminded.
"I will." Ling Han nodded. He was going to the Dark Clouds Hell to become stronger, so he could beat up the Imperial Clans as soon as possible. He naturally could not allow himself to be buried there.
"This horn." The Nine Mountains Saint held that horn that could make one howl like a wolf, his eyes blazing, "According to my deduction, this horn is forged from the bones of a Great Emperor."
What!
Ling Han was astonished. 'F*ck! This background is huge!' He had spent 20,000 Dao Stones to purchase a Great Emperor's bone?
It should be known that when the Great Emperor was alive, he was extremely domineering, and was the overlord that had suppressed an era. After his death, would he be willing to allow others to trample over his remains?
Thus, the Great Emperor would usually bury himself in some desolate land, or in the Imperial Clan, or directly float in the Void. However, no matter where he was buried, the might of the Great Emperor would be able to shatter Saints, and others would not be able to approach at all.
Take, for example, the Descending Heaven Holy Emperor. At that time, those Saints had also relied on the protection of the Imperial Weapon to enter into the body of the Great Emperor. And this was still because that Holy Emperor had laid out a test, wanting to bestow the inheritance. Otherwise, so what if he possessed the Imperial Weapon? Didn't you see how the Holy Emperor's corpse finally broke through the Void and left on its own? Who could stop it?
Thus, Ling Han actually obtained a Great Emperor bone now, and it was even forgedinto a horn. This was really too shocking.
"It is definitely not a Saint that can forge the bone of a Great Emperor into a Spirit Tool," the Nine Mountains Saint said. "Even if a hundred Saintd were added together, and even if the Imperial Weapon was used, it would still be impossible."
The Great Emperor was invincible. This was not just empty words. Even after death, he could not be offended.
"Great Emperors don't offend each other, and this is also an unwritten rule. No Great Emperor would destroy the grave of another Great Emperor and forge his remains into a Spirit Tool." The Nine Mountains Saint continued, "Thus, this must have been forged from the bones that some Great Emperor had shed."
Ling Han was astonished. This Great Emperor was truly open-minded. He had actually refined one of his bones into a tool and passed it onto his descendants!
However, as time passed, how had this top grade precious tool become a cheap item?
Er, don't forget, wasn't the heirloom of the Descending Heaven Holy Emperor also bought at
a streetside stall?
With this in mind, Ling Han didn't find it strange anymore.
The Nine Mountains Saint helped Ling Han with his experiments. This bugle horn was ineffective against Saints, but even Venerate Tiers would be affected - they saw the two Venerates from the Nine Suns Holy Land were earnestly teaching Dao, they suddenly raised their heads and howled, causing the disciples beneath them to turn into stone. Ling Han and Nine Mountains Saint couldn't help but laugh at this scene.
It was hard to tell that the Nine Mountains Saint also had a childish heart.
According to the deduction of the Nine Mountains Saint, because this horn was forged from the bones of an Emperor, it contained Regulations. Though it was not an Imperial Weapon, its practicality was still very high.
-For example, if he was being hunted down by an elite, and suddenly blew, that elite would immediately raise his head and howl like a wolf, and the crisis would naturally be resolved.
"Although it's unreliable, it's quite useful." Ling Han nodded. Seeing as it was practical, he would endure it!
Next, he planned to go to the Dark Clouds Hell.
