Chapter 493
Shortly after Xiao Jinting put the flame in his space ring, the sultry tenth floor had cooled down a lot.
Looking at the boundless desert, Xu Muan said, “I guess there’s not much left here. It must have swallowed up everything.”
Xiao Jinting shook his head and disagreed, “I don’t think so.” He took a handful of sand and went on, “Look. The sand had been burnt by the flame for a long time, and it is a good material for refining weapons.”
Xu Muan smiled and said, “Any alchemist will think it’s treasure if he comes, but it doesn’t mean a lot to you.”
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “You are right.” Although the sand had been burnt by the flame for many years, it was inferior to high-grade materials.
“Under the circumstances, time is the most precious.” Although there were quite many materials for refining weapons on the tenth floor, it was of not much value to Xiao Jinting, who had many powerful weapons.
They strolled around and met Long Xue and Fu Li.
Long Xue greeted, “Hello, Mr. Xiao.”
Xiao Jinting said, “Hello, Ms. Long and Mr. Fu.” Long Xue looked normal, but Fu Li was in a mess. Xiao Jinting thought, “Long Xue seems to have improved a lot over the years, but Fu Li is much inferior to her. The Flame had hurt Fu Li, but it didn’t affect Long Xue.
Long Xue asked tentatively, “Mr. Xiao, have you seen a flaming demonic beast?”
Xiao Jinting shook his head and said sincerely, “No.” He didn’t see any demonic beast. He saw the arrogant Flame.
Long Xue stared at him and said in disbelief, “No? You are lucky. Fu Li and I almost got in trouble.”
Looking at Fu Li, who was droopy, Xiao Jinting said with a smile, “In that case, I’m lucky. What kind of demonic beast is that?”
Long Xue said lightly, “It’s arrogant and willful. It needs to be beaten up.”
The Flame roared angrily in Xiao Jinting’s space ring, “This bitch is insulting me. I’ll eat her!”
Xiao Jinting said with feigned pleasure, “It sounds powerful. Luckily I didn’t meet it. I’ll have to stay away if I meet it.”
Long Xue saw him through, but she didn’t point it out. “Mr. Xiao, what’s your plan next?”
Xiao Jinting said, “I don’t see anything good on the tenth floor. I guess I might go take a look at the eleventh floor.”
Long Xue looked at him and said with jealousy, “You have taken all the treasures. There is nothing valuable on this floor.”
“Ms. Long, you must be joking. Sorry, but I have to go now.”
“Mr. Xiao, see you around.”
After they left the scanning scope of Long Xue and Fu Li, Xu Muan looked at Xiao Jinting and asked, “Why don’t you chat longer with them?”
Xiao Jinting said sulkily, “I’m afraid I will kill them if I stay. It’s not easy for them to cultivate to their levels.”
Xu Muan was speechless.
After Xiao Jinting found the stair leading to the eleventh floor, they left the tenth floor.
…
Fu Li said, “That flaming beast must have been tamed by Xiao Jinting.”
Long Xue glanced at him and thought, “Any idiot can see that. There must be a reason for the sudden change on the tenth floor.”
She didn’t believe Xiao Jinting when he said he didn’t meet the demonic beast, which claimed that it had been starving for thousands of years. It had eaten the people that went up to the tenth floor, and it couldn’t possibly let off Xiao Jinting.
The beast had vanished, which meant Xiao Jinting had tamed it. She had underestimated him. He was more powerful than she had thought.
Long Xue said suspiciously, “I wonder how he tamed the beast.”
How powerful were those cultivators at the other end of the teleportation array?
Fu Li asked, “Shall we follow them up?”
He was frightened by the demonic beast, so he felt hesitated. The information that the demons had was only about the first nine floors. The tenth floor was dangerous, and the eleventh floor should be more dangerous.
Long Xue clenched her fists and said, “Why not?” A cultivator had to fight for resources.
Fu Li hesitated for a while before he made up his mind.
…
Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan went up to the eleventh floor, where there were ranges of mountains. Xiao Jinting felt it was similar to the secret realm formed by the fragments of the Immortal World. The eleventh floor might be a fragment of the Immortal World.
Xu Muan said, “The spiritual Qi is rich here. Jinting, do you think there is Immortal Crystal here?”
Xiao Jinting shook his head and said, “I don’t know. Let’s look around.”
The eleventh floor was very different from the secret realm, where there were many spiritual creatures. Although the spiritual Qi was rich here, there was not a trace of life.
They wandered in the secret realm for a long time before they discovered palace relics.
Xu Muan said, “The palace was built with blue granites. Although it was well built, it collapsed.” The blue granites were rare materials for refining weapons, and many weapon specialists used them to make weapons. However, the palace was made of blue granites, and the specialists outside the tower would sigh at the unnecessary luxury when they saw the palace.
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “Yeah.”
They walked toward the relics and got nothing. The earth on the eleventh floor was burnt as if it had been hit by thunders, and not a single herb was growing out of it.
Xu Muan said, “Although there are no spiritual herbs here, the spiritual Qi is rich. If we cultivate here for several years, we will benefit from it.”
Xiao Jinting said, “Yes, indeed.”
