Ever since Pu Lin issued his command, many amongst the cavalry amounting over ten thousand exercised restraint. They didn't dare to force their way into hunting and killing. These were offerings from foreign lands that were to be sent over to the God's laboratory.

As such, Qin Luoyin, Shi Hong, and Jin Lin who had fled were much better off. If not, only a portion of them could flee in the end because the majority of them were going to be exterminated!

Chu Feng slowly strolled and wandered around those few bloody mountain peaks. He was observing the terrain and studying the sacred mountains' domains.

That was because he reckoned that it would be extremely difficult if he were to forcibly snatch the divine beasts' blood. A large army force would definitely be bearing down upon the border at that time and surround this area very tightly.

He discussed this with Ouyang Feng and felt that they could either raid the escorted divine blood midway or they could climb the mountain and draw the blood from the medicine garden only after the sacred medicine was watered.

They thought of various questions once through before they started making many kinds of preparations.

In this period of time, Chu Feng had quietly wiped away all traces of the domain he had previously set up. After all, those from the cavalry didn't understand this kind of tactics.

"It'll be bad in the event someone who understands domains comes over and discovers this." Chu Feng was very cautious and careful.

For a moment, he and Ouyang Feng had nothing to do because Pu Lin agreed to enlist those Yin spirits after this development of events had passed.

Chu Feng took advantage of this opportunity to humbly ask the knights by Pu Lin's side for guidance. He inquired about the cultivation experience and notable areas he had to take note of regarding this kind of special technique.

He could sense that those few knights were being very half-hearted because they only simply mentioned a few things and lacked sincerity in their explanations.

After that, Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng insincerely invited a knight to accompany them to find a hunting ground so that they could personally test out the might of such a special technique.

Pu Lin shot a cold glance at that knight as he warned him on the sly. This knight couldn't help but respond with a smile, but Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng naturally could feel the phoniness of that smile with their divine senses.

But the two of them didn't mind. They simply wanted to test out the War God's special technique to see exactly how formidable and powerful it was.

They called one or two knights to go along with them only because they wanted Pu Lin to be at ease; they were clearly showing that they weren't going to run away.

This wasteland wasn't lacking in prey; they hadn't gone far our before they managed to kill a Cold Lizard. This was a living being at the cloudeater realm because it could freeze a mountain top when it opened its mouth.


Contrary to what they might have expected, this knight was very cooperative. He personally launched his spear and killed this Cold Lizard with the strength of a quasi-golden arhat before he threw its corpse to Chu Feng.

"You two, test it out and see."

Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng commenced their experiment. As expected, the efficiency of this kind of special technique was even higher. Under the same conditions, they could temper, refine, and absorb more than double the amount of Divinity Granules.

Relatively speaking, there was a limit to the previous kind of absorption method, and it was extremely wasteful.

"How comfortable. My spiritual energy is increasing. This kind of feeling from cultivation truly is too wonderful!" Ouyang Feng called out in an exaggerated manner. He was naturally acting because he had experienced this before.

"Dao Brother, I can see that there are possibly tens of Cold Lizards in this region. Let's hunt them down together. You can also strengthen yourself through this as well."

The knight shook his head and said, "I don't need to. I've already absorbed enough Divinity Granules this month. You two can continue hunting a few down, but just about enough will do."

"What does that mean? There as so many Cold Lizards here. It'll be so wasteful if we don't hunt them down." Ouyang Feng looked puzzled.

The knight sneered and said, "No one would dare absorb Divinity Granules limitless without mastering the War God's highest forbidden special technique. Don't think too much about it."

Ouyang Feng instinctively felt that something was amiss. They hadn't thoroughly gotten to understand a few things beforehand.

"Is there a particular reason for that?" Toad diffidently asked.

"You shouldn't use the special technique too many times every month. The both of you can't be greedy, especially since you are Yin spirits and so that is more than reason enough why you guys can't be greedy. I suggest that you guys hunt just about a few Cold Lizards and that'll be enough. If not, you'll die a very tragic death."

This knight actually didn't conceal anything as he mentioned the drawbacks of using the special technique excessively.

The more one absorbed the Divinity Granules, the more they would encounter heavenly tribulation. For example, this knight had absorbed an excessive amount last time and was implicated with heavenly tribulation in less than a month. He almost couldn't withstand it as the lightning bolts almost made his soul fly away and scatter. He only endured it and survived by a hair's breadth.

"How can there be such an easy path of ascension in the world? We have to pay the price for any achievement we attain. We kill our opponents and use the special technique to extract the share of Divinity Granules in their bodies. In the end, it follows the 10 heavenly stems. We have to settle our accounts with the heavens once in a short period of time and accept the trial of being struck by lightning."

When they heard such words being said, Ouyang Feng and Chu Feng had unpleasant expressions on their faces.

One had to know that both of them had absorbed large quantities of Divine Granules not too long ago and gotten rid of many opponents. They reckoned they exceeded the allowable amount and the heavens would definitely strike them with lightning.

"Naturally, that is only a theory centered around karma just now. After the research the God's Laboratory did, the main reason for that to happen is because absorbing an excessive amount of Divinity Granules in a short period of time from overly complex sources results in the interaction of different sources of Divinity Granules. You have to know that this is an extremely high-grade energy substance. When various Divinity Granules resonate, it's very easy to attract lightning bolts."

Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng had increasingly unsightly expressions on their faces after they heard this knight's elaboration. In the view that they had absorbed so many Divinity Granules, they reckoned that the heavens would strike them a few times at the very least.

"Only after experiencing the baptism of the lightning tribulation will those Divinity Granules be considered to have been truly absorbed and belong to the individual," the knight explained.

"Sigh, it seems that there is a logical reason behind the occurrence of heavenly tribulations regardless of which world or universe it is. We are considered to have obtained a positive outcome through sustained efforts only after going through heavenly tribulations," Ouyang Feng interacted with Chu Feng in private.

After that, the duo's faces turned a little green. This was a world that was flourishing with an abundance of Yang qi. Once that bolt of lightning fell, they reckoned they couldn't withstand it.

That was because the world they were currently in could be considered to be ghostly and that of Yin spirits!

This wasn't their universe; it wasn't the Yin Realm. This world had an abundance of Yang qi, so when they had originally confronted various living beings that possessed flesh, they felt stabs of pain and they too felt as though they were burning.

What was that bolt of lightning? Even if Chu Feng was such a world-defying existence, he too felt that he wouldn't be able to bear the impact resulting from a lightning bolt striking a truly supreme Yang being with absolute certainty.

He and Ouyang Feng assessed the situation once over. Based on the calculations of the Divine Granules the both of them absorbed, each person would have to experience heavenly tribulations four times at the very least.

At the very least, there would be tens and hundreds of lightning bolts for every time they had to go through heavenly tribulations.

The faces of both individuals turned green in a split second. This wasn't lightning from the Yin Realm, but rather this was lightning bolts that contained terrifying supreme Yang qi.

At this moment, Chu Feng had a kind of sense of urgency that he had to snatch that barrel of divine beast blood away so he could carefully baptize himself and rid himself of Yang qi. Only then could he pass the heavenly tribulation with ease!

Ouyang Feng secretly transmitted his voice as he said, "Fraudulent Chu, Great Trickster Chu, our lives and deaths are now matters of great concern. We might be done for! This is a typical case of playing oneself to death! Quickly think of a way for us to get out of this!"

"Based on what he said, even if we absorbed an excessive amount of Divinity Granules, there is only a one month window for the deposits to accumulate and buffer. The Yang lightning won't come in this short period of time."

After that, the two of them hunted Cold Lizards with wandering thoughts and they weren't afraid of lice biting them when they were now in abundance. They only returned after getting rid of ten Cold Lizards each.

"Brother Dao, is there any particular way we can resolve facing the heavenly tribulation and not be struck by lightning? We might have possibly refined too many Divinity Granules by accident just now," said Ouyang Feng.

"You guys are Yin spirits in this world. A single bolt of lightning is enough to make your souls fly away and scatter. If you really did absorb an excessive amount of Divinity Granules, there's no hope left for you guys!"

"The amount we absorbed is unlikely to be in excess. But I still want to ask whether there is a way we can defuse facing the heavenly tribulations. What are we to do if we encounter this kind of situation in the future? I still think there's definitely a way to resolve this, right?" Ouyang Feng chipped away at this matter and didn't abandon it.

"There certainly is, for example, taking a bath in divine beast blood. Or, for example, have you guys seen those few bloody mountain peaks? There are sacred medicines growing there which have been watered using divine beast blood. If you can ingest a small leaf, you can naturally put an end to the calamity. Unfortunately, you guys lack the qualifications to benefit from the sacred medicines based on your status."

At the end of what he said, a contemptuous look appeared on this knight's face, but he concealed it very quickly after that.

"Motherf*cker! We have to get it on the first try! Fraudulent Chu, we must snatch that barrel of divine beast blood for ourselves! Also, God Chu, you have to upgrade your domain's level of mastery without delay! We'll pluck all of those sacred medicines too!" Ouyang Feng shouted out secretly.

At the same time, the Yao Race's cauldron shone on Mount Eternal located at the East Sea on Earth. A robotic voice summoned the big black yak and Yellow Ox, informing them that an even crueler follow-up refinement tribulation was about to begin.

"Huh? Didn't we pass the test? There's still another tribulation?!" the big black yak let out a bewildered cry.

"You guys can only set foot in a refinement tribulation ground of an even higher level precisely because you guys passed the test," said the Ancestral Demon's Cauldron. The Ancestral Demon was an eruditus celestial being whose cultivation had reached a point where he could already comprehend all the mysteries of the world. During his time, he had discovered a terrifying land and accidentally created a path to that world.

After that, the great cauldron told them that only souls could enter and it couldn't transport their physical bodies. It then asked them to choose if they wanted to go through this kind of advanced tribulation.

"I accept!" Yellow Ox nodded.

"I'm staking it all! I'm going!" shouted the big black yak as he made it widely known that he wanted to experience that new world for themselves.

After that, he called out to Old Donkey and asked him whether he wanted to train himself up with them. But he also emphasized that he might escape by a hair's breadth because the high leveled refinement tribulation ground was too dangerous.

Chu Feng obtained definite news from Pu Lin near the bloody mountain peak that the barrel of divine beast blood would be sent over tomorrow. The young noble was going to lead a group to receive it before escorting it up the mountain!

"That's tomorrow! We have to clear it on the first try!" Ouyang Feng eagerly rubbed his fists and wiped his palms together.

On that day, the majority of those cavalry who were dispatched returned. What made Pu Lin furious was that there were actually casualties.

"Those named Jin Lin and Shi Hong were really intractable. They hid and mounted a sneak attack on us together. They killed some of our cavalry!" some reported with their head lowered.

"You guys really are trash!" Pu Lin angrily said, but he didn't feel good if he were to continue reprimanding them.

Not long after that, a very valiant cavalry returned with sounds of cheers because they brought captives back with them.

Chu Feng and Ouyang Feng felt that the situation was anything but reassuring. They weren't willing to run into the captives.

How was it that someone was taken as a prisoner? Was there still any good left to fall in the hands of this group of people? They should have decisively returned to their original universe.

"Reporting to the young noble. We caught a captive. Hmm, no. It's more precise to say that after we besieged her, she requested to come over to have a talk on her own accord," reported the captain of that cavalry.

"Bring her over." Pu Lin waved his hand and finally revealed a hint of a smile.

After that, Chu Feng saw in a single glance that the captives were actually Ying Zhexian and her younger sister, the silver-haired little lolita, Ying Xiaoxiao.

He somewhat lamented. As expected, this devastatingly beautiful Ying Zhexian wasn't someone who was easy to deal with. After she was besieged, she was unexpectedly rather calm, too. She didn't self-destruct in a hurry, but rather she wanted to come and take a look at the person in charge. She was rather gusty!

"The main thing is that she changed her tune and came back to save her younger sister when we besieged the latter individual. Only then was she captured and trapped, too," the captain of the cavalry added on.

Chu Feng was surprised to hear such recounts of the events that had occurred. He had a slightly more favorable impression of Ying Zhexian and no longer purely thought that she was a person who thought too deeply about things.

"You two are here, too!" Ying Zhexian immediately smiled. Pu Lin and the surrounding cavalry were momentarily lost in a trance because she was rather beautiful and had exceptional charms.

Even if these people thought she was a ghost and a Yin spirit, they couldn't help but exclaim in admiration at her beauty.

On the other hand, Ouyang Feng's heart shook intensely and he was almost going to break out in cold sweat. If this woman were to retaliate against them, he reckoned they could only run. He was already prepared to call out to Chu Feng for them to break out of the siege together.

Chu Feng was very calm. At this moment, he smiled at Ying Zhexian and appeared to be pleasantly surprised. After that, he said to Pu Lin, "Young noble, this is my Dao Companion. Those people from before coerced her younger sister, so she had no choice but to chase after them all the way."

Dao Companion?! Ouyang Feng wasn't watching Chu Feng attentively through slanted eyes, but rather he was looking directly at Ying Zhexian.
