Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border

"There are 100,000 gold crystals in here. You can use them for now. You can also obtain gold crystals through other means while they are here."

Xuanlu said to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng had been in the primordial world for a long time and knew that gold crystals were the currency circulating in this world.

Ying Zheng did not refuse this time, because he did not have a single gold crystal on him, and he needed a large number of gold crystals to cultivate.

Ying Zheng cupped his hands in greeting to Xuan Luo, then stepped into the teleportation array.

The moment he stepped into the teleportation array, a white light flashed. A moment later, Ying Zheng arrived directly on the first floor of the cultivation tower.

Upon entering the first level, the gravity in the arena made it difficult for Ying Zheng to breathe.

Just when gravity was about to crush him, he gritted his teeth and held on.

Ying Zheng activated his Dao power to surround his body, and only then did his pressure ease slightly.

Ying Zheng slowly exhaled, constantly surveying the environment of the first floor.

The first floor is extremely spacious, stretching as far as the eye can see, and contains rolling mountains.

"I thought this was just an ordinary place, but I never expected that a world would evolve from here."

Ying Zheng spoke slowly.

In Ying Zheng's imagination, the inside of this tower was at most a flat area, but he never expected that there would be mountains just like the outside.

Ying Zheng did not rush to move at this moment, because even if he wanted to, he could not.

Ying Zheng slowly withdrew his Dao power. An hour later, he was able to adapt to the gravity in the arena.

After gradually adapting to gravity, Ying Zheng began to walk slowly forward.

Ying Zheng had underestimated the gravity of the field. He was in a very sorry state, and his movement was extremely slow.

Before he had taken more than a few steps, Ying Zheng was already drenched in sweat.

So he stopped where he was and began to absorb the power of the field to restore his strength.

Just as Ying Zheng was recovering his strength, a figure appeared in front of him, running towards him.

Seeing that the person was running over, Ying Zheng felt that this place was truly full of hidden talents—he couldn't even walk properly now.

However, it seemed that several demonic beasts were chasing after that man. Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng quickly got up and retreated to the side.

But Ying Zheng's speed was still very slow. Before long, the person being chased by the monster reached Ying Zheng's side.

The man stopped beside Ying Zheng and said to him:
"You're new to this trial tower, aren't you? Judging from your appearance, you don't seem to have been here before."

Ying Zheng nodded and said:
"I'm new here and not quite used to the gravity yet. I see that you and I are at a similar level, yet you can still move at such speed."

"Your strength must be extremely great."

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's praise, the man smiled.

"It's not safe for you to stay here. Why don't I take you away?"

“You can call me Mu Bai. I can protect you for now. Once you get used to the gravity here, we can cultivate together.”

Hearing Mu Bai's words, Ying Zheng slowly looked behind him and found that the monster was getting closer and closer.

"You can call me Ying Zheng, but right now the most important thing is to get rid of those monsters, aren't they? They're almost catching up."

Ying Zheng said to Mu Bai.

Upon hearing this, Mu Bai turned around, looked at the demon beast that was less than a hundred feet away from him, and immediately pulled Ying Zheng to the side.

Ying Zheng can only walk at a very young age, and now that Mu Bai is pulling him like this, he is finding it hard to keep up.

The strong winds left many wounds on Ying Zheng's body.

"Could you slow down a bit? I just got in."

Ying Zheng said with difficulty.

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, Mu Bai realized that Ying Zheng had indeed just entered the area and had forgotten about it when he saw the demonic beasts approaching.

"Sorry, I forgot. There's a mountain range ahead; we can shake them off there. Hang in there a little longer."

Mu Bai said to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng stopped trying to hold on and released his Dao power to surround himself, which gradually relieved the tearing sensation.

Originally, Ying Zheng wanted to use his physical body to resist the gravity in the field, but now he had to use his Dao power to protect himself.

Under the protection of the Dao power, Ying Zheng was able to run as fast as Mu Bai.

A mountain range appeared ahead of them, and Mu Bai pulled Ying Zheng along, running towards the mountain range.

"What exactly did you do to them? Why are they chasing you so relentlessly?"

Ying Zheng couldn't help but ask Mu Bai, who was standing beside him.

Mu Bai sighed and said to Ying Zheng.

"I only stole one of the Dao Fruits they were guarding, but I didn't expect them to keep chasing me like this."

Upon hearing Mu Bai's words, Ying Zheng immediately rolled his eyes at him.

"If you take someone else's things, it's no wonder they chase after you."

Mu Bai smiled after hearing this, said nothing more, and continued to speed up his run towards the mountains.

As Mu Bai's speed increased, the distance between them and the group of demonic beasts behind them gradually widened.

"There's a cave over there; we can hide inside."

During his run, Ying Zheng discovered a stone cave ahead.

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, Mu Bai glanced ahead but then ran in the opposite direction from the cave.

During the run, Mu Bai kept changing direction, and with a final dodge, he led Ying Zheng into the stone cave.

The demonic beasts that had been chasing Ying Zheng and Mu Bai had also entered the mountains, but they could no longer find any trace of Mu Bai and Ying Zheng.

After Mu Bai sealed the cave entrance with his Dao power, he secretly peeked out and saw the demonic beast roar angrily and gradually leave the mountain range.

Seeing the demon beast leave, Mu Bai sat down on the ground and let out a long sigh.

At this moment, Ying Zheng also took a recovery pill that Xuan Luo had refined for him.

Mu Bai noticed Ying Zheng's actions and, upon closer inspection, discovered that the pill Ying Zheng had taken was of the King grade.

Mu Bai then moved closer to Ying Zheng and stared at him intently.

Ying Zheng was somewhat bewildered by Mu Bai's actions and said to him.

"Why aren't you resting your strength? What are you doing here staring at me?"

Mu Bai continued to look at Ying Zheng and said.

"Tell me, are you Senior Xuanluo's disciple? Or do you have some kind of relationship with him?"

Upon arriving, Mu Bai noticed a special mark on the pills Ying Zheng had taken, leading him to guess that there was some unusual relationship between Ying Zheng and Xuan Luo.

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Mu Bai in front of him.

"Do you know Xuan Luo? I am his disciple."

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, Mu Bai immediately smiled contemptuously and said...

"Senior Xuanlu stopped accepting disciples a long time ago. He hasn't taken on a disciple for thousands of years. How can you still try to lie to me?"

Seeing that Mu Bai did not believe what he said, Ying Zheng took out a jade pendant that Xuan Luo had just given him and said.

"Judging from your appearance, you must know my teacher. Take a look at this jade pendant, and you'll know whether I am his disciple or not."

As he spoke, Ying Zheng handed the jade pendant to Mu Bai.

Mu Bai looked at the jade pendant in Ying Zheng's hand and immediately said to Ying Zheng.

"You really are Senior Xuanluo's disciple! My God, how did you manage to get him to accept you as his disciple?"

"I went to Senior Xuanluo before, but he refused to accept me no matter what. I want to hear how you managed to do it?" Ying Zheng put away the jade pendant and thought for a moment before speaking.

“I told you I didn’t know either. She just came to me and wanted to take me on as her apprentice. Do you believe me?”

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, Mu Bai immediately revealed a mocking expression.

"I don't believe it."

Ying Zheng immediately became expressionless and said.

"Whether you believe it or not, what I said is the truth. Since you don't believe it, then let's go our separate ways in a bit."

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, Mu Bai immediately became anxious.

"I believe you, I believe you! I was just joking with you earlier. Could you share one of your pills with me?"

"I've been here for a year now, and I've long since used up all the pills I had."

Ying Zheng put away the pills and said to Mu Bai.

"I don't want to give it to you right now. I'll think about it again when I'm in a better mood."

Mu Bai smiled and said.

"I'll do anything you ask, as long as you give me a single pill!"

Ying Zheng thought for a moment and then said to Mu Bai.

"Then tell me how you adapted to the gravity here, especially using only your physical body."

Mu Bai thought for a moment and then said.

"The reason I was able to do this is because I constantly tempered my physical body. This is the flesh and blood I obtained from hunting monsters before."

"After you eat it, you can also continuously temper your body."

As he spoke, Mu Bai took out a piece of meat and handed it to Ying Zheng.

It must be said that the pills refined by Xuan Luo were very effective, and Ying Zheng has now fully recovered the Dao power he had just lost.

Ying Zheng took the meat from Mu Bai's hand and said to him.

"I didn't bring any ingredients with me when I came in. Why don't you cook for me? It'll be good for both of us to recover."

Mu Bai nodded, then lit a fire and roasted the monster's meat on it.

"Ying Zheng, where are you from? I've never heard of you before?"

Mu Bai said to Ying Zheng.

In Mu Bai's memory, there was no such person as Ying Zheng in this primordial world.

“I am not from here. I am an outsider. By chance, I was taken in as a disciple by Teacher Xuanluo.”

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, Mu Bai couldn't help but admire him.

"Then it seems you have a high talent for cultivation! As far as I know, our world is the most advanced civilization among all known worlds."

"You've already reached the half-step transcendence in another world, which makes you a genius among geniuses. No wonder you were accepted as a disciple by Senior Xuan Luo."

Upon hearing Mu Bai's praise, Ying Zheng waved his hand and said...

"You were just lucky. Since you've been here for so long, why don't you go back?"

Mu Bai sighed and said to Ying Zheng.

"I've always wanted to get into the second level of this Trial Tower, but I've failed every time. I'm too ashamed to go back."

Ying Zheng could understand Mu Bai's words. After all, if the first level was so difficult, one could imagine how difficult the levels above must be.

"If you train for a while longer and improve your strength, you will reach the second level."

Ying Zheng said to Mu Bai.

Mu Bai nodded, then tore off half of the roasted meat and handed it to Ying Zheng.

"Quickly try this meat and see how it tastes. It's very nutritious for us right now."

Ying Zheng took the monster's meat from Mu Bai's hand, smelled it, and found it quite delicious, so he took a bite.

After the flesh entered Ying Zheng's body, it directly transformed into Dao power, continuously nourishing his body.

Ying Zheng felt the energy transformed from the monster's flesh flow through every part of his body like a warm current.

"How is it? The meat is pretty good, isn't it?"

Mu Bai said to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng nodded.

"It's really good, this meat is a great help to us right now. It's just a pity that there's too little of it, this is not enough for the two of us at all."

Mu Bai sighed and said.

"You have no idea how difficult it is to kill a monster in the first level. This meat was obtained after I killed a monster with my life hanging by a thread."

"Once you've fully adapted to the ways of this place, we'll go hunting together."

Ying Zheng nodded and said.

"That's great! We can hone our skills while enjoying such delicious meat. It's a win-win situation!"

Mu Bai smiled and continued eating the meat in his hand.

……

After Ying Zheng entered the trial tower, Xuan Luo did not leave immediately, but instead spoke to Elder Fu.

“I’ll be leaving for a while, and he’ll be in your care. You know the consequences if anything happens to him.”

Upon hearing Xuan Luo's words, Elder Fu hurriedly spoke to her.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Young Master Ying if you leave him with me."

Xuan Luo nodded and then left.

After watching Xuan Luo walk away, Old Fu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was already drenched in sweat. For a moment, he had truly felt the breath of death.

……

After Ying Zheng finished eating the monster's flesh, he took out the gold crystal that Xuan Luo had given him and began to concentrate on cultivation.

Upon seeing this, Mu Bai reinforced the restrictions at the cave entrance and then began cultivating as well.

Ying Zheng felt that the Dao power inside the Trial Tower was purer than that outside, and that cultivating here would be twice as effective.

……

"How does it feel to become the head of the family?"

Pangu then came to Li Bing's side and said.

Upon seeing Pangu arrive, Li Bing stopped what he was doing, hurriedly stood up, and spoke to Pangu.

"Only after becoming the head of the family did I realize how much pressure my father was under. I had to handle everything, big and small."

Pangu walked to Li Bing's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said.

"These are all things you have to go through. The lives of your entire family are now in your hands, so remember not to make any mistakes."

Li Bing nodded.

"Are you getting used to living here? I've already sent someone to inquire about your brother's whereabouts. I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."

Pangu cupped his hands in greeting to Li Bing and said.

"Then I'll thank you in advance. Whether or not it's found in the end, I still want to thank you."

Seeing Pangu's action, Li Bing quickly waved his hand and said.

"There's no need for this between us. You've already done so much for me; it's only right that I help you in some ways." (End of Chapter)
