The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 961
Ling Han did not wait for Shui Yanyu's reply, and directly extracted the essence of the new Mountain River Stone.
Of course, this was not the special Mountain River Stone he had obtained recently. Instead, it was one that he had obtained from the group of seven that he had killed. He had obtained a total of two Mountain River Stones from them, but since he was busy with his journey, he had yet to refine those two stones.
The other eyes turned green with envy when they saw Ling Han purifying the Mountain River Stone openly, and they could barely contain themselves, not running and picking it up.
Fortunately, they were able to stop themselves when they realized that it was just an ordinary Mountain River Stone.
Ordinary Mountain River Stone was only able to reduce the cultivation time of the cultivators. Even though they were extremely valuable, the prodigies were not too fussy about the small amount of time they could save. Only Mountain River Stones with special attributes could be considered as precious treasures. They could actually increase one's battle prowess.
The fear of Ling Han's battle prowess was only part of the reason that no one charged. The other reason was because of Hu Feiyun. He is the Ninth King!
Thinking about the empress of the Chaotic Stars, the Majestic Empire's fondness towards the Ninth King, who would dare to disrespect her?
Even the members of the Chaotic Stars Majestic Empire did not dare to touch the Ninth King. It was almost the same for Eternity Sky and Jade Drop Majestic Empires. In fact, they would even have to risk their lives to save her if she found any danger. After all, everyone realized that the empress of the Chaotic Stars Majestic Empire would definitely explode furiously if the Ninth King were to die here. He would definitely not hesitate to bury everyone here alive as a tribute to the Ninth King.
There was no need to doubt — empresses of the Chaotic Stars Majestic Empire could definitely strengthen her heart to do that.
Shui Yanyu was not stupid. It was impossible to find Hu Feiyun during normal occasions. Now that he had such a great opportunity, he naturally had to be friendly with Hu Feiyun. The Ninth King was charming and naive, and knew little about the dangers and evils of the world. Before long, she had already fallen into a cheerful conversation with Shui Yanyu.
Ling Han was casually cultivating in front of others.
In the eyes of others, such actions were insane and rash. However, Ling Han was very relaxed. This was because no one else knew that his physique had reached the toughness of a Tier Two heavenly metal. Who here could hurt him?
Even if they were to use heavenly fire, they might still need to purify it for a few days, right? If they had instead chosen to use the most potent poison, it would still be quite a while before he was actually taken by it.
After all, the unique environment here guaranteed that Ling Han was almost completely safe.
The Mountain River Stone in his hand slowly became dim. Meanwhile, the huge mountain in his dantian was growing rapidly larger.
The lower one's cultivation level was, the faster one grew. When the Mountain River Stone became dull and fragile, the first Mountain in the Ling Han Dantian had already grown 100-fold. Now, it finally started to look a little like a mountain.
"I'm almost at the middle stage of the low extreme," Ling Han thought to himself. 'But this Mountain River was already going to form and condense a river, so why was it still so small?
'Is it because I am relying on the Mountain River Stone to move up the ranks?
'Anyway, everything will be fine as long as my battle prowess matches my level.'
Ling Han stood up and started crossing the river again.
This time, he charged into the 60th stone in a single breath before finally slowing down. After increasing his cultivation level, his improvement was very clear. However, a tense feeling once again overcame him when he reached the 90th stone. He pushed himself to take a step forward, yet all he could do was to plunge himself into the river helplessly.
"Haha!" Some people immediately began to howl with laughter. They looked as if they would clap happily at any moment.
However, expressions of shock spread on their faces in the next moment.
It was because Ling Han actually swung his hand and swam towards the island!
'A giant! He must be a monster! '
It's not like no one thought about this before. Since they had made it more than half, why couldn't they swim forward? In fact, the distance is even shorter if they swim.
Answer's simple. That's because this is actually harder — is more than a hundred times harder, to be exact.
Swimming away from the island is easy. Despite the corrosive nature of the lake water, there was not even the slightest bit of resistance. However, swimming towards the island is a completely different story. In addition to the threat of lake water, there was also a terrifying resistive force.
It could be said that other than being corroded by the lake water, it was basically impossible to move forward if one tried to swim towards the island.
However ... Even though Ling Han did not advance, his body was also uncorroded!
This is too shocking. What kind of body can resist the corrosion of lake water?
After swimming for a while, Ling Han could only reluctantly turn around. The pressure immediately lifted off his shoulder, and he immediately returned to the bank. The clothes on his body had already turned into ragged strips that were now peeled off and dropped to the ground. However, the unharmed muscles in his body emitted a heavenly light.
Ling Han picked up a new outfit and quickly dressed himself. Being able to withstand the corrosive abilities of lake water was not just due to his strong physique. It was also because he had channeled the Unbreakable Heaven Scroll. This skill allowed him to resist all spells, and the corrosive lake water was not in the presence of this powerful skill.
"Huh? Didn't you guys see me before? '' Ling Han laughed. "Why is your expression so strange?" Right now, both of Shui Yanyu and Hu Feiyun's eyes widened in disbelief.
How could they not be surprised? The corrosive abilities of Crimson Lake were widely recognized as frightening. No matter who falls, they will definitely lose a layer of skin. However, Ling Han had surrounded him as if it was just an ordinary lake. This is so astounding.
Even the old men from before felt their hearts pounding in fear. They were secretly grateful that they had not quarreled with Ling Han back then. With such a powerful body, who here could injure him?
Ling Han sat down and picked up the remaining ordinary Mountain River Stone.
After repairing it, he would most likely be able to reach the island.
He did not hesitate anymore, and immediately began to refine this last Mountain River Stone.
A few hours later, the Mountain River Stone in his hand once again shattered into dust.
During these few hours, more people had arrived at this place. There were also some who left after realizing that they had no hope here. The physique Ling Han showed was too powerful, and it caused most people to crush their wandering minds.
However, the magic of the Eternity Sky Majestic Empire was part of the newcomer. His cultivation level had reached an extreme low peak, and he was even a three-star genius. After an enormous effort, he had also managed to obtain the Mountain Mountain Stone's weight.
From this, it can be clearly seen that battle prowess is not the deciding factor that determines whether one can reach the island or not. There were many individuals stronger than him, yet until now, only he and Ling Han had managed to reach the island. It can be seen that power is the real power.
That individual was named You Hao, and not only was he extremely strong, but he also had two elders guarding him by his side. The two of them possessed incredible battle prowess, which resulted in those around them not daring to act recklessly.
There were over 20 such elders not too long ago, but almost all of them had left just a moment ago. There were only seven of them left, and as such, they were not confident of achieving victory in battle. As a result, they naturally did not dare to rashly attack.
You Hao looked extremely satisfied as he laughed out loud and turned his gaze around.
Who did not know that being able to reach the island represented such an extraordinary ability? Only 10 or so people can reach the island each time. Inspired by the old monster's secret technique wasn't close enough.
This was an extreme test of strength!
"Congratulations, Young Master!" The two old maids all smiled as they congratulated You Hao.
You Hao was very complacent, yet a strange expression quickly spread across his face. This was because many people were naturally stunned at being at a loss for words by his great achievements. However, there were also many people who remained calm and motionless as if they had not seen his resplendent achievements at all.
"Are they blind?"
He had no idea that Ling Han had already succeeded before. Although he was unsuccessful at the efforts of the two, his actions back then were even more shocking than when he had succeeded.
Right at this moment, Ling Han stood up. He finally reached the end of the middle stage of the extreme low. He was just a little bit away from forming a river, whose formation was the boundary separating the middle stage from the final stage.
You Hao chuckled coldly as he looked at Ling Han's movements. He had just made it to the island, and this fellow was already trying to follow in his footsteps. His actions were really nothing more than a joke.
'Pty! You bite off more than you can chew! '
