Somewhere in an isolated place.
The sky rumbled as crimson lightning wreaked havoc, painting half the sky red.
Amidst this terrifying thunderstorm stood a handsome young man, unwavering.
Endless bolts of lightning struck his body, yet he didn’t even flinch.
The lightning danced around him like threads, unable to harm a single hair on his body.
In the distance, two elderly men with an immortal aura watched the scene, their faces full of smiles.
“As expected of the Diamond Body, Lang Tian’s physical strength is becoming more terrifying. Perhaps in another one or two thousand years, he might surpass us,” one of them said, stroking his long beard in admiration.
The other elder with flowing white hair chuckled, “Why would it take that long?”
“Look at his current state; overcoming this first heavenly tribulation is a piece of cake for him.”
“In less than a hundred years, he will surely pass through seven tribulations and light up the seven stars.”
“By then, he will be reborn and step into the immortal realm, and his physical body will be no less than ours.”
“But I’ve heard that the young girl from the Ye family seems to be ahead.”
“According to the information, she is already undergoing the fourth heavenly tribulation, and her Chaos Divine Eye has completely fused with her.”
Upon hearing this, the other elder’s brow furrowed slightly, and his mood soured.
“It’s a pity that my Lin family was a step too slow back then and only managed to snatch one Creation Bone.”
“If we had acted sooner, perhaps the Chaos Divine Eye would belong to our Lin family.”
“Although the Creation Bone is strong, it can’t compare to the Chaos Divine Eye and the Heavenly Dao Sacred Heart!” he said regretfully.
“Actually, being able to snatch a Creation Bone is already very fortunate,” the other elder smiled.
“And the Creation Bone in Lang Tian’s body is the one with stronger Dao resonance.”
“The other Creation Bone’s contained immortal arts are definitely not as strong as Lang Tian’s.”
“That’s true. Greed knows no bounds. My Lin family should be content with a share of the spoils,” the elder nodded slightly.
After a while, the thunder tribulation dissipated.
The handsome young man walked towards the two elders with the stride of a dragon and the steps of a tiger.
“Lang Tian thanks the Second Elder and Fifth Elder for protecting me!” Lin Langtian bowed and saluted.
The elder with flowing white hair was the Second Elder of the Lin family, Lin Wuya. He nodded at Lin Langtian and said, “With your current strength, you didn’t need us to protect you during the first tribulation.”
“It’s been many years since our Lin family had a supreme genius like you.”
“Keep working hard, and strive to bring more glory to our Lin family in the Longevity Dao Debate a hundred years from now.”
The Fifth Elder, Lin Sanshan, also spoke, “Our expectations of you are not high.”
“The little monster from the Sword Pavilion has an innate sword body and the Heavenly Dao Sacred Heart. It’s normal if you can’t beat him.”
“And the demon girl from the Ye family has the top-tier Companion Spiritual Treasure, the Yi Divine Bow, and the Chaos Divine Eye. Competing with her is also very difficult.”
“But aside from those two, you shouldn’t have much trouble facing the heirs of other families and sacred lands.”
Lin Langtian replied solemnly, “Although their current realms are higher than mine, my talent is no less than theirs.”
“With a hundred years’ time, as long as I cultivate the Creation Bone’s immortal arts to the second realm, I will surely be able to compete with them!”
“If you can truly master it, there is indeed a chance. However, this Creation Bone was transplanted later, not innate. The first layer is easy to master, but it gets harder as you go up!” the Fifth Elder said.
Lin Langtian laughed, “This Creation Bone has been in my body for eighteen years. It has completely fused with me.”
“I can feel it. Within a hundred years, I will definitely master the second layer!”
“With the power of this immortal art and my unparalleled Diamond Body, I will surely crush all the geniuses of various races!”
“This confidence is good, showing a hint of a supreme aura,” the Second Elder praised without reservation, “Perhaps you will truly surprise us.”
……………………
On the other side, in a mountain hollow in the wilderness.
Purple Bamboo suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, looking at Fang Ling beside her.
At this moment, Fang Ling seemed to be having a nightmare, sweating profusely and twitching occasionally.
“Hmph! This is your retribution for committing so many murders,” she thought.
Awakened by Fang Ling in the middle of the night, she lost her sleepiness and decided to sit cross-legged and start meditating.
But just then, thunder rumbled ahead, accompanied by flashes of lightning, tearing through the night sky.
Fang Ling suddenly sat up, gasping for breath.
He had just dreamed of the nightmare where his heart was cut out and his eyes gouged.
Coming to his senses, he stood up and looked towards the source of the lightning and thunder.
Then he leaped into the air, heading in that direction.
Seeing this, Purple Bamboo immediately followed.
The commotion was caused by two fierce beasts fighting.
These two beasts were a Lion God and a grey flood dragon.
Both had royal bloodlines and were extremely powerful among the demon race.
Purple Bamboo watched from a distance, her face solemn, “Such terrifying auras, these are two beasts at the Alkaid Great Perfection realm!”
“We should leave quickly to avoid getting caught in their battle.”
“Look at the valley over there,” Fang Ling pointed, indicating the direction.
Purple Bamboo followed his direction and observed carefully, mumbling, “They are close to the valley, but the aftermath of their battle hasn’t affected it, as if they are deliberately avoiding it.”
“This suggests there might be some treasure there!”
“That’s why they are avoiding it but don’t dare to stray too far.”
She closed her eyes, brought her hands together, and activated her Heart’s Eye.
The Heart’s Eye allowed her to see clearly what was in the valley without being detected by the Lion God and the grey flood dragon.
“There is a Spring of Life there!” she exclaimed in shock.
“What is this Spring of Life?” Fang Ling asked.
Purple Bamboo explained, “The Spring of Life is a gift from heaven and earth.”
“Its appearance has no pattern and can emerge at any time and place.”
“But even if someone lives for a million years, they might not encounter it once; the chances are very slim.”
“The Spring of Life is a heavenly opportunity. Once it appears, it will soon disappear.”
“The spring water contains the purest vitality of heaven and earth. If a recently deceased person is soaked in it for a while, they can even be brought back to life!”
“But this heaven-defying thing cannot be preserved. No matter what container is used, once it leaves the spring, the pure vitality will dissipate completely.”
At this moment, Fang Ling suddenly felt the Fusang Divine Tree in his dantian becoming restless.
He could feel that the Divine Tree was craving the Spring of Life.
This Spring of Life could likely accelerate its growth.
“Do you have a way to get me there without alerting these two great demons?” Fang Ling asked.
Purple Bamboo glanced at him, “You’d better not covet the Spring of Life. These two great demons are not to be trifled with.”
“Then we’ll have to resort to the last option.” Fang Ling suddenly slapped her on the buttocks.
“Sorry, Master!” His slap was so forceful that it sent her flying into the sky.
“This guy, so rough…” Purple Bamboo was both embarrassed and angry, feeling her buttocks almost broken.
Seeing a human suddenly appear in the air, the Lion God and the grey flood dragon immediately stopped fighting.
They charged at her aggressively, intending to kill this human woman first before continuing their battle.
Purple Bamboo clenched her fists, almost exploding with anger.
“Using me as bait, how despicable!”
Facing such powerful demons, she turned and fled without hesitation.
Taking advantage of this distraction, Fang Ling used the Divine Movement Step to slip to the Spring of Life.
