Chapter 355
Through the clearing fog, Lin Beifan saw several people fighting in the other world.
He secretly let out a sigh of relief: “There are people; there should be something to gain!”
Previously, his luck was terrible, only drawing barren worlds of no value.
He had thought that the myriad worlds would be wonderful, but only after stepping into them did he realize that he had been too optimistic.
The myriad worlds are vast, as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, countless. (TLN: referring to Ganges River.)
But the vast majority are ordinary garbage worlds without any value at all.
Not to mention people, not even an animal could be found most of the time.
What use were such barren worlds to him?
Fortunately, this time his luck wasn’t bad, and he finally drew a world with people.
A world capable of nurturing humans definitely wouldn’t be bad. There should be something valuable to take back.Lin Beifan observed carefully, considering how to extract the greatest benefit from this world.
He found that he was now in the midst of a vast desert.
In the desert, several individuals with Grandmaster-level strength were engaged in a fierce battle.
Weirdly enough, they were able to transform the energy within their bodies into wings, allowing them to fly nimbly through the air.
In the world where Lin Beifan resided, even those who had cultivated to the level of Great Grandmaster were incapable of flight.
This was not to say that the Grandmasters from Lin Beifan’s world were inferior to the others.
In fact, anyone who could cultivate to the realm of Grandmaster was considered an exceptional talent, with no distinction between high and low status.
The vast differences are solely due to different world rules.
Worlds are diverse and bizarre, each with its own set of rules.
In some worlds, the world is extremely weak, and you cannot reach the realm of Grandmaster no matter how much you cultivate.
In some worlds, although ordinary, they allow people to ‘basically’ live forever.
In some worlds, cultivation is impossible, yet they have developed powerful technologies that defy the heavens.
In some worlds, there are no humans at all, inhabited only by all sorts of demons and monsters.
Therefore, even though they are all Grandmasters, the abilities they display can vary greatly depending on the world they come from.
Lin Beifan judged that these individuals were Grandmasters based on the destructive power they exhibited.
But let’s not stray too far from the topic. Lin Beifan continued to observe and discovered a volcano deep in the desert.
Inside the volcano, a mesmerizing azure flame was blooming like a lotus, beautiful to behold yet filled with immense destructive power—capable of incinerating divine weapons, even fiercer than the breath of a giant dragon.
There was an Acquired Realm level young man hidden within the volcano, peering at the flame.
Lin Beifan was very satisfied, “This trip has indeed been fruitful! If I can obtain this flame, it should slightly enhance my strength! Moreover, it can be used to forge divine weapons and concoct divine elixirs!”
Just as he was about to take action, he noticed something else of interest, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face.
“Hmm? There’s also an old fellow whose only remaining form is a soul, deeply integrated with him!”
At that moment, the young man who was eyeing the azure flame heard a grave and serious voice in his mind.
“Disciple, the situation seems a bit dangerous!”
“Master, what’s wrong?” the young man asked, startled.
“Just now, I sensed a powerful spiritual force sweeping over this place. It has discovered you and the Azure Lotus Earth’s Core Flame! The other party is unfathomable. We must leave this place quickly!”
The young man’s heart tightened. “Master, could it be Medusa and her followers coming to kill us?”
“It’s not Medusa and her followers, but another powerful person!”
“How powerful? Are you saying that even with your current strength, you can’t contend with him?”
“Indeed, I can’t contend with him! He is even more formidable than I was at my peak, and it’s very likely that he has already reached peak Battle Venerate!”
“Peak Battle Venerate! Maybe even more formidable than Master at his peak!” The young man gasped in shock.
Although he didn’t know how powerful his Master was at his peak, he understood the might of a Battle Venerate—a level of strength beyond his wildest imagination.
With a mere gesture, they could change the seas into mulberry fields and shift the heavens!
His current level of cultivation was miles away from reaching Battle Venerate.
For the other party, killing him would be as easy as stepping on an ant.
The young man felt a bit panicked. “Master, what should we do?”
“The other party might also be after the Azure Lotus Earth’s Core Flame. We can only give it up and leave quickly! Otherwise, offending such a powerful being… even I can’t protect you now!”
“Understood,” the young man reluctantly nodded.
He had prepared for a long time and gone through countless hardships to reach this flame.
Who would have thought that someone would pick the peach before him?
Although he was very reluctant to accept it, the situation was beyond his control, so he had no choice but to give up.
After all, what would be the use of obtaining the flame if he lost his life in the process?
He immediately retreated from the crater and fled relentlessly in one direction.
Just then, a giant glass-like hand appeared in the sky.
The Grandmasters who were fighting looked up at the hand above them, their hearts filled with horror.
“…what is that?”
“Such a terrifying hand, I feel like it could easily obliterate me. Could this person be a Battle Ancestor?”
“Impossible! I’ve seen Battle Ancestor before, and none have posed such a threat to me!”
“Then it might be a Battle Venerate!”
“Why would such a powerful being come here?”
“For the ‘Flame’!”
At that moment, a bewitchingly beautiful woman with a snake’s lower body who was being surrounded looked in the direction of the hand and her face changed.
“Not good! That’s the direction of the volcano. He’s after the Azure Lotus Earth’s Core Flame!”
The others’ expressions also changed. They were here for the Azure Lotus Earth’s Core Flame.
If someone else gets there first, what then?
They immediately joined forces and used their divine powers.
However, the glass-like hand merely trembled slightly to pressure them, and everyone was shaken into severe injuries, leaving them no choice but to give up reluctantly.
Only the bewitching woman did not give up and pursued relentlessly.
But soon, she was stunned. The giant hand did not reach for the Azure Lotus Earth’s Core Flame in the volcano but continued to chase after something else—a young man who was running for his life.
The young man panicked inside: “Master, didn’t you say that the strong being was after the Azure Lotus Earth’s Core Flame? Why are they chasing us now?”
The soul within him was also panicking: “Master doesn’t know what’s happening either!”
The young man continued to panic: “Master, the hand is about to catch up to us. What should we do?”
“Give your body to me, I’ll take you to escape!”
“Okay, Master, do it!”
In the blink of an eye, the young man’s speed increased several times. But in the end, he still couldn’t escape.
The giant glass-like hand actually penetrated the young man’s body and pulled out a sinister and terrifying white flame.
As for the young man, he was discarded like trash, landing in front of several Grandmasters.
Facing the strong beings who were eyeing him greedily, the young man shrugged his shoulders and gave a sheepish smile: “Honestly, I just happened to pass by here, and somehow that giant hand targeted me. There might be some misunderstanding. Do you believe me?”
One of the Grandmasters nodded: “We believe you, but we still plan to capture you first to check! Don’t worry, we have absolutely no ill intentions towards you!”
The young man: “…”
