"Calm down!"
With a raise of his hand, Lin You immobilized Yan Lie with a surge of Space Power, rendering him unable to move.
Lin You certainly understood Yan Lie’s eagerness to find his sister, desperate to rush to the top of the Celestial Ladder.
But considering Yan Lie’s state of just recovering from severe injuries, he couldn’t even reach the nine-hundredth step, let alone the top, so Lin You couldn’t let him go unchecked.
"Let me go! This is my business, it has nothing to do with you!"
Yan Lie shouted angrily while struggling fiercely, trying desperately to break free from the spatial restraint, causing the space around to tremble violently.
"Wake up, in your current state, what good would it do to go further up?"
"If something happens to you, who will save your sister?"
Lin You’s expression turned serious, questioning in a solemn voice.
His voice was like a heavy hammer, crashing hard against Yan Lie’s heart.
Especially when he heard the last sentence, his actions finally slowed down, the anger and urgency on his face turned into a bleak grayness, and he sat dejectedly on the ground.
As the saying goes, deep love results in harsh words.
Yan Lie, though rough, certainly understood this principle.
But concern brings confusion.
Persuasion was important for him, but without someone as powerful as Lin You to suppress him, no amount of words would have worked, he would have desperately continued rushing towards the Celestial Ladder.
Fortunately, Lin You’s strength was enough.
This forced him to calm down and sit dazedly on the ground, looking out at the burning hot Celestial Ladder in the distance.
Situ Jian looked at him, sighed, unsure of how to persuade him.
No matter when or where, Yan Lie’s Bravery was the most reassuring and trustworthy thing for them.
Except when it came to matters concerning his sister, he was as fragile as a thin sheet of paper, as if he were a completely different person.
This was probably his only Achilles’ heel.
Once he stopped moving, gradually calming down.
Lin You then slowly approached, saying, "Don’t think too much, you’ve already worked hard for so long, a few more days won’t make a difference. Only by ensuring you’re alive can you have a chance to find her. You wouldn’t want your sister to be unprotected in danger, would you?"
"Lin You is right, staying alive is the most important thing," Situ Jian quickly chimed in from the side.
At this point, Yan Lie’s dumbfounded expression finally began to return to normal.
He clenched his fists tightly, grabbed a handful of grass, then released it again, his head slowly drooping down.
"Thank you."
The two words came softly from his mouth, sounding incredibly low.
Upon hearing this, Lin You and Situ Jian were delighted, their tense hearts finally relaxing.
"That’s more like it. It’s just a Celestial Ladder. If you fail once, try twice, if twice doesn’t work, try three times. As long as you don’t give up and keep accumulating strength, there will surely come a time when you can cross it successfully," Lin You said with a smile.
It was as if he was speaking to Yan Lie, and also to himself.
Life is like this, not everything goes smoothly.
If you give up after one failure, how can you overcome the obstacles on the path to success?
It’s all about stumbling and struggling, progressing step by step.
Fortunately, Yan Lie could see things clearly, preventing any irreversible outcomes.
After resolving this matter.
When Lin You returned to his Territory, it was already evening.
At this time, the Duchy and Empire channels were much quieter than usual.
Many Lords stayed on the Celestial Ladder, trying to reach higher levels, or competing for treasures on the platform, tirelessly.
After all, treasures refreshed periodically, in considerable numbers, offering them rare opportunities.
However, compared to the rewards on the Celestial Ladder.
Lin You was more concerned about the Life and Death Reincarnation Realms.
Logically, these three realms, belonging to the Ten Thousand Realms, shouldn’t differ much from their realms.
But why are they separated, with completely different operating rules, and accessible only after the fusion of the Ten Thousand Realms?
Could these three realms be hiding some great unknown secret?
"Life Realm, Netherworld, Reincarnation Realm..."
Lin You murmured, deep in thought.
From the names, it’s easy to infer that these three realms involve life, death, and reincarnation.
Life is easy to understand; he has been explained before, it’s a realm for those who couldn’t become Lords.
Then what about Death?
Surely it’s not a place for the dead, or even Demons?
Not to mention Reincarnation.
Even though this world is bizarre enough, he still couldn’t believe in reincarnation. After all, when a person dies, it’s like a light going out, dead is dead.
Perhaps this reincarnation is not the traditional kind.
The most important point is the previously mentioned Seed of the World.
This thing, granting control over world rules, what exactly is it?
And what did the black-eyed youth mean before?
Mysteries kept emerging in his mind, causing Lin You to furrow his brows deeply.
He had a premonition that the Life Realm might hold the answers to these questions, waiting for them to explore.
"I’ll need to prepare quickly."
Lin You stroked his chin, talking to himself.
To reach the top of the Celestial Ladder, his current strength wasn’t enough.
So he needed to gather more Rule Fragments and prioritize enhancing his Physical Attribute to its maximum.
This way, he could fully utilize the Offensive and Defensive Conversion Equipment.
At this time, while all Lords’ attention was on the Celestial Ladder Trial, few ventured to the Demon Plane to hunt Demons.
He could take this chance to find Lord Demons and gather materials needed for crafting the Offensive and Defensive Conversion Equipment.
With this plan in mind.
Lin You wasted no time, heading to the World Tree to exchange today’s matured Faith Fruit for Rule Fragments to enhance his attributes.
Then, served by his attendants, he took a comfortable hot bath in the pool, washing away the bloodstains.
Outside, the sky gradually darkened.
...
Early the next morning.
At daybreak, Lin You got up and took Ling Xi to the Demon Plane, searching for traces of the Lord Demon.
Their target this trip was Agando, ranked sixty-sixth among the Seventy-Two Celestial Demons, bearing the title of Master of Hundred Beasts, located in his territory.
Because Agando himself belonged to the Giant Dragon Lineage of Beast Type, almost all the demons gathered around his territory were of the Beast Type, of various kinds.
Every time they passed by, they could hear the loud roars of beasts.
The slightly weaker ones didn’t even dare to get too close.
Lin You arrived thousands of kilometers away from the pillar of light and immediately saw the vast wasteland of fierce beasts, and the dense forest where birds and beasts gathered.
Moreover, in the sky, shadows of giant dragons soared, occasionally accompanied by high-pitched dragon cries; it was truly a sanctuary for beast demons.
"Something’s approaching."
Suddenly, Ling Xi spoke up to warn him.
Lin You withdrew his gaze and indeed sensed a formidable aura rapidly approaching, accompanied by thunderous footsteps and a large cloud of rising dust.
"It looks like a beast hoard. Let’s get down quickly."
Lin You’s eyes brightened, and he immediately teleportated to the wasteland below.
In such a large beast hoard, there must be demons of Lord Level or above.
Unexpected luck to encounter the target prey right after arriving.
He waved his hand, summoning the Plant Army, forming a defensive stance on the wasteland.
"Roar!!"
At this moment, a heaven-shaking roar erupted.
From the dust in the distance, a group of Silver-armored Rhinoceroses gradually revealed their forms.
Leading them was a Lord Level rhino twice the size of ordinary rhinoceroses, heading straight toward their direction.
Lin You’s gaze stiffened, and the Lord Rhinoceros’s attribute interface appeared before him.
[Name: Bloodthirsty Rhino (Lord)]
[Race: Beast]
[Level: Tier Ten (S-level)]
[Power: 97000 (+77600)]
[Constitution: 97000 (+77600)]
[Agility: 95000 (+76000)]
[Spirit: 95000 (+76000)]
[Skills: Fierce Beast Power, Charge, War Trample, Bloodthirsty Fury]
[Chaos: All Attributes increased by 80%]
[Introduction: A demon with terrifying power, fond of living in groups, has a strong territorial sense, and attacks any enemy daring to enter its domain.]
It’s actually S-level!
After reviewing the Lord Rhinoceros’s attributes, Lin You was taken aback.
An S-level Lord Demon, with average attributes reaching over 170,000, exceeding his current Royal Species by thirty to forty thousand.
Even for him.
In the situation of activating Four-leaf Protection, it’s barely at this level, only with the help of Barbaric Roar can he suppress one.
The problem is, the Lord Rhinoceros’s skills also seem to have enhancement types.
"Be careful, this rhino is not easy to deal with."
Lin You immediately cautioned the Cyan Gang at the front line.
"Leave it to me, Master, I won’t let it charge in."
The Cyan Gang’s deep and steady voice resounded, its entire body sinking, ready to face the enemy at any moment.
Just then.
The rhinoceros army led by the Bloodthirsty Rhino surged forth.
Amidst a series of roars, they launched the Charge skill fiercely, slamming into the Ancient Tree Army.
"Hold them off!"
The Cyan Gang stepped forward, unleashing both Barbaric Roar and War Barrier, enveloping the Plant Species in a vast red glow and shield, going straight up to meet them.
Boom!
A violent sound erupted as the fronts collided fiercely, halting the charging momentum.
And supported by burst skills, the Cyan Gang resisted the charging stance of the Bloodthirsty Rhino, sliding backward several meters with its feet on the ground, then flipping the Bloodthirsty Rhino over onto the ground.
"Attack!"
"Shoot!"
Accompanied by commands from the Royal Family at the rear, their led remote legion started bombarding the rhinoceros army intensively.
Vines, like pythons, emerged from the ground, quickly wrapping around the fallen Bloodthirsty Rhino.
In the sky, the Jade Green Dragon swooped overhead, spitting out streams of Death Breath, roaring over the wasteland.
"Roar!!"
However.
The Bloodthirsty Rhino wasn’t an easy target.
Seeing its body entangled by numerous vines, it activated Fierce Beast Power, snapping the vines at once, then charged wildly within the Plant Army, puncturing several Ancient Trees with its horns, killing them instantly.
It’s worth noting.
Lin You’s current Ancient Tree Species evolved from Four-leaf Clover, with a constitution 40% higher than ordinary species.
Additionally, the Cyan Gang’s exclusive talent increased by 20%, yet it’s still unable to withstand its attacks, illustrating its terrifying strength.
However, Lin You noticed its weakness.
That is, its spirit is very low!
Without hesitation, taking advantage of the ongoing Barbaric Roar, he activated Spiritual Interference, transforming into an invisible force that enveloped the Bloodthirsty Rhino, instantly halving its spiritual attribute.
It’s now!
Lin You’s gaze sharpened, and the group spiritual attack skill of Deep Blue Dream, mental burst, suddenly launched.
A powerful spiritual force spread out from him as the center, fiercely blasting into the Bloodthirsty Rhino’s head!
