701 No Way Out! (1)

Azure Dragon City, Green Mountain Mystic Realm.

At this moment, about a third of the Gate of Fear had already been opened. Countless fear energy gathered into a waterfall that kept pouring down from the void.

Then, this energy was wrapped and absorbed by a black shadow that covered the sky. Then, it was transformed into various energies and teleported to Lin Bei’s pocket space.

“Sigh, Little Shadow, according to your calculations, how long can we last?”

Under the Gate of Fear, Lin Bei’s main body opened his closed eyes and asked helplessly.

In the past, he could continuously absorb the terrifying energy seeping out of the Gate of Fear to increase his cultivation level.

However, not long ago, such a beautiful cultivation life was interrupted.

There was no other reason. With his current ninth-stage Dao Integration Realm cultivation, the energy seeping out of the Gate of Fear could no longer satisfy his daily cultivation.

Currently, for every half an hour of cultivation, he needed to rest for ten minutes and wait for the Gate of Fear to condense energy again. To put it simply, for Lin Bei, the energy supply of the Gate of Fear was already insufficient.

“Boss, I feel that… in at most a day or two, the energy supply of this Gate of Fear will be severely insufficient. At that time, you might have to wait for two hours after cultivating for five minutes.”

The Shadow of Harmony transformed into a black figure and stood beside Lin Bei, saying helplessly.

This was because other than Lin Bei needing to cultivate, he also needed to constantly circulate energy in his body to increase his strength. Now… their cultivation progress had been delayed. The Shadow of Harmony was also a little depressed.

“That bad?”

When Lin Bei heard this, he couldn’t help but say in a low voice, “Other people charge the phone for five minutes and use it for two hours, but when it’s me, it’s directly reversed? Damn it, if that’s the case, why should I cultivate? I’m so worried!”

Finally, Lin Bei couldn’t hold it in anymore. He hurriedly stood up and paced back and forth on the ground. His mind raced as he thought of a way out.

“Boss, stop pacing. I’m about to faint from your pacing! Isn’t it just energy? Can’t we just look for more? Anyway, you have so many clones. Moreover, I heard from you just now that there’s an unlimited supply of demon ingredients, right? Can’t you just get more?”

“Who said that the ingredients of great demons can be supplied in an unlimited amount? That’s a limited number! Great demons, do you understand what great demons are? There aren’t many of them! Moreover, as my strength increases, the quality of the ingredients I need will also increase. If I want the quality of the ingredients to be high, the demons have to be strong. However, the stronger they are, the fewer the quantity!”

Lin Bei glared at the Shadow of Harmony angrily and said, “If we really count on this, we’ll all starve to death!”

“Then what do you suggest we do?”

The Shadow of Harmony muttered.

“Why would I ask you if I knew?”

Lin Bei kicked the figure condensed from the Shadow of Harmony and curled his lips. “Now, we’re equivalent to a start-up company and need to attract investments! Do you understand?”

“Huh?”

The Shadow of Harmony was dumbfounded.

He could hear these words clearly, but why couldn’t he understand them when they were combined?

“Ahem, to put it simply, we’re looking for a big shot to provide us with resources!”

“There’s such a good thing?”

“Of course! There are always idiots… Ahem, I already have someone in mind for the boss. As long as we can reach an agreement, we should be able to last for a long time.”

“As expected of Boss! You’re just amazing! May I ask who that big shot is?”

“Yes… it’s the Heavenly Emperor.”

Lin Bei said slowly.

…

“Achoo!”

In the void, the Heavenly Emperor, who was running, sneezed again.

“Damn it, are you done?! Demon Fox Clan, just you wait! I’ll deal with you later!”

The Heavenly Emperor cursed and continued on his way.

…

Black Robe was still fleeing. He was very glad now. If he had not fused with some Will of Heaven and Earth previously, he would have long become a dead dog.

“Soon, soon! I’m about to enter the Four Square Regions! I’ll be fine after holding on for a while!”

Black Robe’s heart was filled with infinite hope.

He had invested a lot this time. If he couldn’t even make Lin Bei put down his prejudice against him, he would be shooting himself in the foot!

“Sigh, it’s really not easy to find a big shot to rely on these days. That Lord of Darkness, I’ve been working hard for him for so many years, but I’m actually not as good as a Dark Imperial Guard. I can only say that… my previous loyalty has been fed to dogs.”

Black Robe recalled his hardships over the years and could not help but sigh.

In fact, he had also signed a heaven and earth contract with the Lord of Darkness. Logically speaking, he could not betray the Lord of Darkness.

However, the problem was that he had fused with the Will of Heaven and Earth and was already a part of the world. The restriction of the Heaven and Earth Contract on him was almost useless, so it gave him a chance to take advantage of it. After so many years of stealing, he had taken advantage of the iron rooster, the Lord of Darkness, to cultivate.

Otherwise, if he really relied on the rewards of the mission, he might still have not stepped into the Heaven Splitting Realm.

Actually, there was nothing he could do.

He was the Son of Destiny and had also fused with the Will of Heaven and Earth. Under such circumstances, his foundation was very deep. Therefore, it was more than a hundred times more difficult to increase his strength than others, so the resources he consumed were also more than a hundred times more than others.

Therefore, although he was also nurturing the combat strength of the Heaven Splitting Realm, the cost alone was enough to nurture 100 people!
