Free Web NovelChapter 2598: Chapter 2601: Fusing a New Beast Spirit, Breaking Through the 9th Layer of Hell
Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang grow stronger, and the more aid they provide to Ling Xiao, the happier he is.
"Come on, I’ll take you to meet a friend!"
Ling Xiao led Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang to the top of the volcano.
Yue Fanghua was still there.
The Little Demoness was also present.
Lie Huang lay on the ground, gasping for breath.
The giant lava monster was gone.
"Such a beautiful woman!"
Upon seeing Yue Fanghua, Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang both exclaimed in awe.
They were stunning beauties themselves, yet compared to Yue Fanghua, they were not in the same league.
This left the two girls a bit resigned, but mostly amazed.
"The one I want to introduce you to is her, Yue Fanghua, my new friend."
Ling Xiao smiled as he introduced Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang to Yue Fanghua, then said, "Fanghua, these two are my good friends, Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang."
"You really know how to make friends, and you’ve got quite the peach blossom luck."
For some reason, Yue Fanghua felt a twinge of jealousy seeing the good relationships Ling Xiao had with Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang.
And so she blurted out those words.
She was stunned as soon as she said them, not understanding why she felt this way—it was unlike her to lose composure in front of others.
Why did she lose her nerve after meeting this guy named Ling Xiao?
"Fanghua, let me explain, they’re really just my friends, not what you think."
Ling Xiao, having just found his true love, really didn’t want the Moon Lady to misunderstand.
"There’s no need to explain to me, we are but passing acquaintances."
Yue Fanghua said coolly.
After speaking, she put her hat back on again.
That hat had a black veil that obscured her breathtaking face.
Ling Xiao sighed, a little helpless, but did not explain anything further.
He believed that his feelings for the Moon Lady were honest and true, and heaven and earth could attest to it, from Heavenly Dragon Continent to Xuanwu Continent, he had encountered many beauties.
Yet the one he truly loved was this one woman.
In this life, that would never change.
Afraid that explaining more would only complicate things, he shifted his focus to the corpse of the Magma Cerberus.
He retrieved the demon beast crystal core from the Magma Cerberus and gave it directly to the Little Demoness.
His External Incarnation had the ability to devour all thermal energy.
Both light heat and fire heat.
Therefore, this demon beast crystal core from the Magma Cerberus would greatly benefit her.
As for Ling Xiao himself, he stored the corpse of the Magma Cerberus in the Mountain and River World.
Yue Fanghua said nothing in response, not showing any emotion.
The Little Demoness devoured the demon beast crystal core of the Magma Cerberus and immediately began to cultivate at the volcano’s edge.
Ling Xiao, having obtained the corpse of the Magma Cerberus, sat down cross-legged and used the special effect of the Tyrant Sky Martial Spirit to transform it into a Beast Spirit.
"Sister Moon, whether you acknowledge me or not, I, Ling Xiao, will wholeheartedly protect you! Forever!
Therefore, I must become stronger!"
With this thought in mind, Ling Xiao plunged into a frenzy of cultivation.
In front of everyone, he consumed middle-grade spirit stones and Yin Yang pills as though they were fried beans, madly.
Lie Huang, nearby, was dumbstruck, his eyes almost bulging out.
"My, my, just who is this Young Master Ling? Wasn’t he said to be an ordinary person? How could he cultivate so extravagantly?
These spirit stones seem as if they cost nothing!
And all those pills, he’s consuming them by the handful!"
Yue Fanghua was also astonished.
Ordinary martial artists would never dare to do this, for although middle-grade spirit stones and pills are great, the human body has its limits. If one rushes it, the consequences could be troublesome.
It could even cost them their life.
Directly getting blown up by the terrifying energy.
Yet Ling Xiao’s body was like the endless expanse of the cosmos, vast and boundless, capable of transforming and refining anything that entered him.
Approximately ten minutes later, the corpse of the Magma Cerberus had completely vanished, and a large amount of energy, triggered by the spirit stones and pills, flooded into Ling Xiao’s internal hell.
This caused Ling Xiao’s power to surge from twenty percent to seventy percent.
And this was not the end.
At that moment, the Magma Cerberus had just been transformed into a Beast Spirit, with part of its power still stored within the soul.
Ling Xiao activated the Canine God Seat, extracted the Black Wolf General Beast Spirit, and merged it into his body, transforming it into his own energy.
Unfortunately, it was like a drop in the ocean, unable to stir up any waves.
Then, he placed the newly transformed Magma Cerberus Beast Spirit into the Canine God Seat.
At that moment, the energy contained within the Magma Cerberus Beast Spirit erupted once more.
The final thirty percent of energy was also filled.
Above Ling Xiao’s head, the gates of the Ninth Layer of Hell appeared and opened completely.
He had broken through once again!
This breakthrough fueled his confidence to protect Yue Fanghua even more.
However, for this breakthrough, he had nearly consumed ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones.
And more than a hundred Yin Yang pills.
Such extravagance was impossible for ordinary people.
Even the scions of great families couldn’t recklessly use resources as Ling Xiao did.
With such a significant increase in cultivation level, his strength naturally soared.
If he encountered that deputy general from before, he could basically defeat them with one move, without needing to use the Tyrant Sky Martial Spirit.
He broke through, and his External Incarnation also did.
Completely absorbing the Magma Cerberus’s demon beast crystal core, the Little Demoness’s cultivation went from the mid-stage of the First Cycle of the Yin-Yang Realm Ninth Layer Hell, directly breaking through the late stage, and advancing to the pinnacle!
The momentum of the Little Demoness also grew fiercer.
"Are you leaving now?"
Seeing Ling Xiao open his eyes, Yue Fanghua couldn’t help asking.
"Yes, I need to go to the Chen Dynasty’s imperial capital and join the Secret Realm Academy for higher-level training."
Ling Xiao nodded, asking, "What about you? Will you come with me?"
He knew Yue Fanghua had no other friends here, but he still needed to ask.
"Of course, you are my only friend in the Chen Dynasty, so I’ll follow you, lest you get yourself killed."
Yue Fanghua said with a cool tone.
Though her voice was cold, the concern beneath it made Ling Xiao very happy.
It seemed that although the Moon Lady had been reincarnated, there was still an inherent love for Ling Xiao deep in her subconscious.
This love was etched deep into her bones and soul.
"Then I shall rely on Lady Fanghua."
Ling Xiao smiled, then stood up and said, "Let’s wait for two more days, I estimate the Seventh Prince will enter the Eight Immortals County soon, then we’ll set out."
"I’ll go handle those corpses and organize the defense now!"
Lie Huang felt like a massive third wheel there.
He quickly spoke up upon hearing Ling Xiao.
"Then I’ll rely on Centurion Lie Huang."
Ling Xiao nodded, then said to Lin Ruoxian and Yue Shang, "You two should cultivate here too.
The area that monster beast chose as a cultivation spot is not without reason; the spiritual qi here is very abundant."
