Chapter 4237 - 4237 The Ninth Level

4237 The Ninth Level

Duan Ling Tian was calm unlike the others because he could tell from the fragrance that the divine pill was just an ordinary emperor-grade divine pill. At least, it was only ordinary to him. After all, even if the divine pill was rare, it was not of much use to him. Compared to the Heavenly Dao Fruit he obtained in the Trial of Gods, it was far inferior. Moreover, as long as he possessed the necessary ingredients, he could easily refine the pill. In fact, he was rather confident about refining the Limit Divine Pill version of this divine pill.

The divine pill was called Emperor Pill, and it was most useful to those who had just become advanced Emperors of Gods. It would speed up the stabilization of one’s cultivation base. However, its efficacy would decrease significantly when one took another pill. Even an Emperor Limit Divine Pill was no different. As such, Duan Ling Tian’s interest in it fell further. Even if this divine pill were useful to his family, he was not interested in it. Why would he be interested in it when he could refine Emperor Limit Divine Pills for his family in the future?

Duan Ling Tian was very confident about refining Emperor Limit Divine Pills in the future even if the ingredients were rare. Even heavyweight supreme-rank forces needed to rely on their luck to obtain the ingredients. Perhaps, only prime supreme-rank forces would be able to obtain these ingredients easily. However, he was not worried because he was confident that it would not be difficult for him to obtain the ingredients in the future and that he would be able to refine the divine pill for his family.

At this time, while everyone looked at the divine pill with bright eyes, Qiu Ping looked away and said with a smile, “It’s thanks to Brother Shen that we’re able to pass the eighth level. As such, this Emperor Pill should be given to him. Everyone shouldn’t have any objection, right?”

The eyes of the imminent Supreme God next to Qiu Ping lit up immediately.

Although Hou Dong was a little unwilling, he was not in the position to object. Perhaps, if his helper was still alive, he could have said something. However, what qualification did he have to object now?

As for Jiang Yu Wei, she glanced at the veiled young woman next to her. When she saw the veiled young woman next to her shaking her head gently, she also remained silent.

Hou Lian Yu wore a reluctant expression on his face. However, Jiang Yu Wei and also Duan Ling Tian did not say anything so he could only remain silent.

Seeing that no one objected, Qiu Ping looked at the imminent Supreme God next to him and said with a smile, “Since there’s no objection, please take the Emperor Pill, Brother Shen.”

“Very well,” the imminent Supreme God said with a nod and a smile before he reached out for the Emperor Pill that fell from the sky.

Qiu Ping continued to say, “Although the Emperor Pill is useless to us, it’s a treasure for those who have just become advanced Emperors of Gods and have yet to stabilize their cultivation bases. Brother Shen, you can give this Emperor Pill to your family, friends, or disciples. You can also use it to exchange for a decent treasure.”

In fact, Qiu Ping’s words were rather useless. After all, everyone present on the scene were familiar with the Emperor Pill.

“Now that we’ve passed the eighth level, we’ll be facing the ninth level. Under normal circumstances, the ninth level is the penultimate level,” Qiu Ping said solemnly, “The ninth level is naturally difficult. Perhaps, we might have to face two imminent Supreme Gods. It’ll be fine if they’re monsters. After all, they won’t be as strong as human imminent Supreme Gods. If our next opponents are from the Sanction Land, I suggest we leave the natural secret realm if we can’t beat them. There’s no need to fight them if we can’t beat them…”

On the Realm Battlefield, as long as everyone came to an agreement, they could leave the secret realm, natural or not. It did not matter if the secret realm was the kind that stayed in place or not. Perhaps, that was why people did not hesitate to enter secret realms in groups. If they were confident, they could stay and fight. Otherwise, they could choose to leave. With this, their safety was absolutely guaranteed. The only caveat was that everyone had to be in agreement. Otherwise, they would not be able to leave even if one person disagreed.

However, the dead naturally did not count. The dead could not speak and had no right to speak. For this reason, those who stirred up trouble and refused to leave at the critical moment would be killed.

Qiu Ping looked at everyone before he asked, “Do you have any opinions?”

No one spoke up. Clearly, they all, including the imminent Supreme God, silently acquiesced to Qiu Ping’s words. The imminent Supreme God was strong, and he was not a fool. He would not endanger his life for no reason. Moreover, out of everyone present, he had gained most in the natural secret realm now. Even if he had to leave now, he would not suffer a loss. Compared to the imminent Supreme God who died, he had benefited greatly. He still could not help but break out in cold sweat when he thought of the death of the other imminent Supreme God. After all, it could have easily been him. At that time, the person laughing now would be the other imminent Supreme God.

At this time, Hou Lian Yu said to Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission, “Big Brother Duan, if the person Qiu Ping found is unreliable during the ninth level, I’m afraid I can only rely on you…”

Hou Lian Yu naturally knew that Duan Ling Tian had not been taking things seriously so far. He thought that Duan Ling Tian was trying to hide and preserve his strength and that Duan Ling Tian would only reveal his strength at the critical moment. In his opinion, if they encountered treasure, the imminent Supreme God whom Qiu Ping found, who did not hold back all this while, might not be a match for Duan Ling Tian since Duan Ling Tian had been preserving his strength.

As for Jiang Yu Wei, unless the veiled young woman had also been hiding her strength, Hou Lian Yu did not think they were a match for Duan Ling Tian as well.

Moreover, Hou Lian Yu felt that Duan Ling Tian was not an ordinary imminent Supreme God. Previously, he had seen Duan Ling Tian kill an advanced Emperor of Gods, who was not any weaker than him, with just a move. This was not something ordinary imminent Supreme Gods were capable of. At the very least, it was not something the imminent Supreme Gods, whom Hou Dong and Qiu Ping found respectively, were capable of.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian replied to Hou Lian Yu’s Voice Transmission, “We’ll act according to the situation…”

Duan Ling Tian was very calm. It was as though he had an endless supply of patience.

“You’re right. There’s no need to worry for now,” Hou Lian Yu said before adding, “Perhaps, the veiled young woman next to Jiang Yu Wei has also been hiding her strength. Big Brother Duan, at the critical moment, you have to see if she makes a move. It’s better to let her make a move first.”

Duan Ling Tian was slightly surprised by Hou Lian Yu’s words. He did not expect Hou Lian Yu to suspect the veiled young woman next to Jiang Yu Wei of hiding her strength.

…

Duan Ling Tian and the others were still waiting patiently when the wind suddenly picked up speed and chased away the clouds above the canyon. Following that, a spatial vortex, larger than the one before, appeared in the sky.

Qiu Ping’s expression changed immediately upon seeing this. “Damn it! It’s the people from the Sanction Land again!”

Up until now, the vortex would only appear when the people from the Sanction Land appeared. There was no vortex for the monsters. Instead, the monsters looked as though they had appeared out of thin air.

Swoosh!

The expression of the imminent Supreme God next to Qiu Ping turned solemn as well. Following that, he quickly flew up and attacked the vortex. However, despite his powerful attack, the vortex continued to churn quickly. In fact, the vortex seemed to be churning faster due to his attack.

At this time, the imminent Supreme God seemed to detect the aura of another person so he quickly retreated to his original spot.

Qiu Ping, who had just regained his senses at this time, shook his head and said, “It’s useless. Once the spatial vortex appears, there’s no stopping it. If you attack it, it’ll absorb the energy of the attack and speed up the process of transportation. Let’s wait. We’ll see if the people from the Sanction Land are strong. We’ll withdraw if they’re strong. We must also consider the possibility that they’re hiding their strength. This time, remember not to rush out recklessly. We should fight together. It’s best if we let them make the first move.”

After a while, several figures appeared in front of the spatial vortex. This time, there were seven people; two more compared to the previous group. This meant that their number was similar to Duan Ling Tian’s group, which had lost one person.

After discovering that they were the gatekeepers of the ninth level in the natural secret realm, the seven people from the Sanction Land only panicked briefly before they regained their composure.

A bearded middle-aged man cursed, “Damn it, damn it! I’ve been transported to a natural secret realm again to act as a test!”

As for the other six people, their expressions were solemn, and their eyes shone with vigilance.

At this time, someone asked the bearded man through Voice Transmission, “How strong are you? Under these circumstances, we should confirm our strength so we can cooperate accordingly. It’s seven against seven so we might not lose to them. It’s best if we can win with the fewest number of casualties.”

The bearded man stopped cursing, and his expression turned solemn upon hearing these words. Then, he replied through Voice Transmission, “My strength is close to that of an imminent Supreme God. However, if you can buy me a few breaths, I can unleash an attack that’s capable of injuring or even killing an imminent Supreme God as long as I can catch him or her off guard. My bloodline power is quite special…”

The person who asked the question was an imminent Supreme God. His eyes lit up now that he found out that someone on his side had the means to seriously injure or kill an imminent Supreme God. Following that, he quickly asked the other five people through Voice Transmission, “How strong are you? I’m an imminent Supreme God, and my strongest law is the law of metal.”
