“Why, aren’t you guys going in?”
Li Lingtian said indifferently. His face was calm and relaxed. He did not take the dozens of Martial Emperors and Martial Honors seriously at all. Even the five to six Martial Emperor powerhouses were ignored.
His gaze gradually turned cold. Wherever his gaze passed, many experts could not help but lower their noble heads.
Immediately, Li Lingtian came to a realization. With a flash, he flew toward the huge Rune in Dragon Valley. Behind the Rune was a huge stone wall that was as smooth as a mirror. However, there was a slot on the wall that was surrounded by countless formations.
Li Lingtian did not hesitate. He extended his hand and the Dragon Soul Jade appeared in his hand. He then pressed the Dragon Soul Jade into the card slot.
Boom!
With a thunderous sound, the spiritual qi between heaven and earth changed rapidly.
As the Spirit Qi surged toward him, Li Lingtian’s body flashed as he left quickly. He returned to Tang Qingyue’s side and observed the changes in the sky.
“Crash.”
There was a slight sound, like the sound of water. The originally smooth stone wall became as smooth as water.
Moreover, the stone wall began to fluctuate slightly. This was no longer a stone wall. It was completely a horizontal surface that could stand upright.
Li Lingtian threw a stone over to test the waters. The stone did not bounce back at all. Instead, it was sucked into the stone wall as if it had penetrated the surface of the water and entered the bottom of the lake.
Seeing this scene, all the experts ‘eyes were wide open. This way, they could enter the Lost Forest.
However, it was now up to Li Lingtian. If he wanted to enter, he would have to pay Spiritual Stones. Otherwise, he would not be allowed to enter.
“That’s enough.”
Li Lingtian extended his hand and activated the Divine Dragon Ring with his Divine Consciousness. The gorilla demon was released from the Divine Dragon Ring.
Immediately, a destructive demonic power pressed down from the sky. Countless experts felt a wave of destructive pressure.
The gorilla demon’s huge body was like a huge mountain standing on one side of Dragon Valley, and a terrifying pressure was constantly emitted.
“Eighth-rank demonic beast.”
“Eighth-rank demonic beast!”
All the powerhouses exclaimed in surprise. Even though everyone knew that Li Lingtian had an Eighth-Order mystical beast, it was even more shocking to see it in person.
The Gorilla Demon stood motionless on the ground. Li Lingtian did not move either. Instead, he came to Dragon Valley’s stone wall and sat down with his arms crossed over his chest. He looked like a security guard as if he was collecting protection fees.
When everyone saw this, they were all stunned. In such a situation, if they wanted to enter the Lost Forest, they had to pay spirit stones. If they didn’t pay, they wouldn’t be able to enter.
When the gorilla monster came out, it looked at Li Lingtian in confusion. There was a hint of doubt in its eyes, but it was more of a question.
This was because it had already attacked twice. If it attacked again this time, its demonic power and lifespan would all disappear, and it would only be able to sleep.
Li Lingtian was aware of the Gorilla Demon’s doubts. He transmitted his voice over and conveyed his intentions.
The gorilla demon nodded. This was also its last attack. It would be in an eternal slumber after it made its move. It could only wait for Li Lingtian to wake it up so that it could be reborn and recover to a higher state.
After receiving this information, the terrifying aura of the gorilla demon erupted. As long as someone dared to act recklessly, it would launch a destructive attack.
Moreover, Li Lingtian had also informed the gorilla demon that he was only here to kill the powerhouses from the House of Storms. The powerhouses ‘objective was to get these people to hand over their Spiritual Stones.
I’ll pay 50 million spirit stones.”
“I’ll also pay 200 million spirit stones.”
“I’ll pay spirit stones.”
“This is one billion.”
“This is 50 million.”
Finally, someone could not hold it in anymore. He counted all his spirit stones and handed them all to Long Da.
Long Da collected a person’s spirit stones and let that person enter.
Time passed bit by bit. All the experts had entered the Lost Forest. There was not a single expert left outside.
However, Li Lingtian did not speak because the true powerhouse had yet to arrive.
He didn’t mind waiting in this place for a while. After all, the Lost Forest was open and wouldn’t close.
Moreover, with the Dragon Soul Jade, he could enter and exit at any time.
After all the experts entered, more experts flew over.
Li Lingtian decided to use a stream of True Essence to form a string of words.
“50 million Martial Emperors, 200 million Martial Venerables, and 1 billion Martial Emperors.”
More than ten words floated in front of the stone wall in the air. When an expert came, Long Da pointed at the stone wall, indicating to look at the words on it.
The powerhouses had no choice but to admit defeat when they saw Li Lingtian, Long Da and the terrifying gorilla demon.
Even if someone wanted to die, they would have to watch the gorilla demon yield.
Even the most powerful Martial Monarch Realm expert would be courting death for a Rank-8 demonic beast.
As the days passed, Li Lingtian decided to set up countless formations here before he found a cave to rest in.
With two peerless beauties living together, he was naturally carefree.
Half a month passed, and the experts still came one after another. They paid spirit stones and entered the Lost Forest.
Li Lingtian did not care how many Spiritual Stones there were because he did not care about the Spiritual Stones but the powerhouses of the House of Storms.
However, there was no sign of any powerhouses from the House of Storms. As such, Li Lingtian felt that this would not work.
“Ling Tian, with the gorilla demon here, the experts from the House of Storms shouldn’t come. They’re just wasting time with us.”
Tang Qingyue could also tell how terrifying the gorilla demon was. Other than the eighth or ninth level Martial Monarch Realm experts who dared to fight, the other experts did not have the consciousness to resist.
She understood Li Lingtian’s concerns. If he did not call out the Gorilla Demon, he would not be able to withstand a sneak attack from the powerhouses of the House of Storms. However, if he called out the Gorilla Demon, the powerhouses of the House of Storms would be able to tell at a glance. Naturally, they would not come to their deaths.
” I know. Let’s wait for another ten days. After we collect the Spiritual Stones, we’ll hide and wait for the experts of the House of Storms to come. Then, we’ll give them a destructive attack.”
Li Lingtian nodded. If he were to enter immediately, the House of Storms might suspect him. If he were to wait for a while longer, they might think that Li Lingtian could not wait any longer.
“Brother’s idea is not bad. Brother is getting more and more handsome.”
Little White said with a smile. She looked extremely cute, but she was also very naughty.
“You’re indirectly saying that you’re getting more and more beautiful, right?”
Li Lingtian pinched Xiao Bai’s little face. Xiao Bai looked exactly like him. If he praised Xiao Bai for being handsome, it would mean that he was complimenting himself for being pretty.
“Am I not beautiful?”
Whitey felt embarrassed for a while after being exposed, but it quickly recovered.
Following that, Li Lingtian and the others cultivated quietly as they waited for the powerhouses to arrive.
After ten days, Li Lingtian and the others looked anxious. They then recalled the Gorilla Demon and quickly flew into the stone wall. The stone wall shook and they disappeared.
“Exalt, they have already entered.”
Half an hour after Li Lingtian and the others disappeared, a Martial Emperor powerhouse reported to Elder Tian Yin at a hidden spot a thousand miles away from Dragon Valley.
The current Old Man Tian Yin had lost both his hands, and his strength had become extremely unstable.
A Sixth Heaven Martial Monarch Realm expert had actually become like this. It was really bleak.
Behind him, there were three Sixth Level Martial Emperors, four Fifth Level Martial Emperors, and even dozens of ordinary Martial Emperors. The rest were all Supreme Martial Honors.
” Wait a minute. This Li Lingtian is extremely cunning. Don’t be fooled.”
Old Man Tian Yin became furious at the mention of Li Lingtian. He was a Sixth Firmament Martial Emperor, yet he was almost beaten to death.
“I’ll go and observe again.”
After the Martial Emperor finished speaking, his body disappeared as if he had turned into air. His movement technique was extremely magical.
As time passed, the Dragon Valley was extremely quiet. Even if a powerhouse occasionally entered, they would be able to enter safely.
No longer did Long Da collect spirit stones. Thirteen experts entered the Lost Forest without paying spirit stones.
Three days had passed and Li Lingtian had yet to show up.
” Supremacy, three days have passed and thirteen Martial Emperor powerhouses have entered the Lost Forest. However, none of them have seen Li Lingtian collect the Spiritual Stones and safely enter the Lost Forest.”
The Martial Emperor powerhouse who was scouting for information had observed Dragon Valley countless times and had seen everything in Dragon Valley.
“He should really have entered. No matter how powerful he is, he is only a Supreme Realm expert. He is still too young.”
Perfected Wugou said. Although he was only a Third Firmament Martial Emperor, his status in the House of Storms was very high. Moreover, the other experts were extremely respectful to Perfected Wugou.
” Indeed. He’s only twenty years old. After waiting for so many days, he naturally couldn’t wait any longer. Moreover, we haven’t appeared yet. Even if he suspects us, he doesn’t want to wait any longer.”
Hu Yijian was also a Sixth Heaven Martial Emperor and one of the four super powerhouses of the House of Storms.
Following that, all the Martial Emperor powerhouses began to discuss the matter. This was a matter of success or failure. If they were not careful, they would be killed by Li Lingtian’s Gorilla Demon and the House of Storms would not stand a chance.
Moreover, they were all aware that the demonic beasts from outside would be suppressed if they entered the Lost Forest. The gorilla demons would be suppressed as well. They could take advantage of this opportunity to kill Li Lingtian in the Lost Forest.
Li Lingtian’s wealth and treasures were the envy of the House of Storms.
After a discussion via voice transmission, the powerhouses from the House of Storms waited for another three days. Three days had passed but there was still no sign of Li Lingtian.
Upon noticing this, everyone assumed that Li Lingtian had already entered the cave.
They could not afford to delay any further lest Li Lingtian took the lead.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A series of air-breaking sounds rang out. More than ten Martial Emperors and Martial Honors from the House of Storms arrived at the Dragon Valley one after another. After waiting for a moment, they did not find anything suspicious. Their bodies flashed and they entered the Lost Forest.
Another ten experts entered, and they entered safely.
Four batches of experts had entered safely. The experts hiding behind them were relieved.
“Swoosh!”
This time, all the powerhouses came to the front of Dragon Valley one after another, but they did not enter.
Old Man Tian Yin and Perfected Cultivator Wu Gou looked around and found many formations. However, these formations were useless. They could only hide and block the peeping of the divine senses and warriors..
