An Lin glowered at Dong Guo with rage.
What are you trying to say?

Was Dong Guo implying that the name Little Huang was no good?

I think he’s right,
Bai Ling chimed in expressionlessly.

I also think he’s right, woof!
Da Bai raised a paw in agreement as he said,
Not every color-based name is as majestic as Da Bai!

An Lin:
…



An Lin felt as if he was being discriminated against.
He placed the phoenix egg back into his White Fox Divine Box before slinging the box across his back.
He then lay back down in the Blood Soul Jade Coffin and began to circulate his Evergreen Technique in order to absorb the immortal pill and continue the regeneration process.
Bai Ling also continued in her efforts to fight for control over this research institute. The chances were quite slim, but she still had to try. After all, what if a miracle struck?
Hmm… but fortune didn’t really play a big part in things like this…
Even though Black Spirit Snake had relinquished her control, she was extremely well established in this world already… Bai Ling was feeling a little embittered, but there wasn’t anything she could do.
She silently turned her eyes toward the man lying in the coffin with his eyes closed, and a smile as radiant and enchanting as a spring breeze appeared on her face.
For some reason, she had decided to pin her hopes on An Lin. Even someone as logical as her was capable of doing illogical things… Her heart was filled with a mysterious sense of anticipation. Perhaps it was because of An Lin’s peculiar affinity with the Purple Star, or perhaps it was because An Lin chose to stand his ground against the demonic baby.
Either way, she decided to take a gamble!
Time slowly and peacefully passed by.


However, outside the research institute, things were about to reach a breaking point.
Celestial Maiden Fei Ying, Duan Hunzi, and the newly-arrived Bai Pengzi gathered outside the green gate. All of them had their eyes on one another as a tense, yet powerless atmosphere settled over the three of them.
They couldn’t get to the other side of the green gate, but they were unwilling to give up on the phoenix egg, so they could only stand outside the gate like a trio of idiots.
Duan Hunzi sent a spirit to scout for a potential route underground, only to find that aside from the gate, the entire area was encapsulated by some sort of special metal. It was like a huge, indestructible box fortress!
What could they do? All they could do was wait! An Lin had to come out from this gate eventually, right? He couldn’t just spend the rest of his life in there…
The temptation of the phoenix egg was simply too alluring for the three Return to Void Stage mighty figures to even consider leaving.

This must be the core area of this world. I’m getting quite envious of An Lin. I wonder what kind of opportunities he will encounter in such a place.
Fei Ying’s beautiful features were full of envy and admiration, but her eyes reflected her caution and alertness as her gaze settled on the other two mighty figures.

I don’t care about what opportunities he encounters. All I want is his egg,
Bai Pengzi said in a cold voice.

Kukuku… A useless bird like you will continue to be useless even if you obtain a phoenix egg! Know your place, trash! The phoenix egg belongs to the Life Harvesting Sect! I recently attained enlightenment from the smile of the Death God, and my luck is at an all-time high!
Duan Hunzi chortled with glee before materializing a comical face for Bai Pengzi to see.
A thunderous expression appeared on Bai Pengzi’s face. As his killing intent surged, the atmosphere instantly dropped to below freezing.


Celestial Maiden Fei Ying silently backtracked a few steps.

Hmph! If I didn’t have to conserve energy to deal with An Lin, you would already be dead,
Bai Pengzi said with a frosty voice.
An Lin’s emergence would signify the beginning of a battle; that was not going to change. All three of the Return to Void Stage mighty figures knew their priorities, and they knew that fighting now would be a bad idea.
Meanwhile, Shuang Yukong was heading toward another direction. He had detected the powerful collisions of power from earlier, but he still decided to head elsewhere instead.
Pitter, patter…
Scorching green liquid dripped down from the metal roof above before melting through the rocky ground below, leaving a series of inky-black holes.
Shuang Yukong’s heart rate climbed as he forged on ahead. This sense of heart-racing fear in conjunction with extreme excitement presented an irresistibly stimulating combination.
He passed through a winding tunnel to arrive at a cavernous space with a scorching heat that was difficult to endure even for a mighty figure like him.
All the rock formations here flowed as if they were all in liquid form, and a golden liquid surged as a dazzling green light shone in the distance.

It’s here!
Shuang Yukong’s eyes lit up, and he immediately flew toward the green light.


His horizons broadened as he forged ahead.
This felt like the energy core of this divine mountain. Turbulent energy swept through the air, and an incredibly formidable power gave him a sense of asphyxiation.Visit on our vipnovel.com
The green light expanded in his field of vision, and Shuang Yukong finally caught sight of what had drawn him here before drawing a sharp intake of breath.
A colossus over ten thousand feet tall appeared before his eyes.
It had three enormous heads, which consisted of a human head, a phoenix head, and a dragon head.
It also had six strange arms, two of which held swords, another two of which were covered by red feathers, and the final two were covered by purple scales and had a pair of claws that radiated a sense of astonishing sharpness, even when stationary.
A pair of gigantic, white, bony wings grew from its back, from which a golden light shone.
There were black lightning revolving around its two white legs, which were exuding a fearsome might that seemed to be able to crush the space around it.
Some sort of green light enveloped the entire creature’s body. It was not to enhance its appearance, but instead, it seemed to restrict it.
Shuang Yukong’s breathing accelerated as his mind raced.


Why… why had he come here…
He had been drawn here by some sort of connection.
But… was this really an opportunity?
How could this colossus benefit him?
Shuang Yukong was very nervous as he looked up at the colossus before him.
A hesitant expression appeared on his face, and he didn’t know whether he should leave or stay.

I can feel that this appears to be a living creature, but it looks like it’s currently dormant or has been sealed by some sort of power…


The organs of such a mighty creature must be worth a lot of money, right?

Shuang Yukong’s eyes took on a scorching glow as an illogical desire somehow gripped his entire body.
Especially that golden ball on its chest; if that was to be made into a weapon, it would at least be a high-rank immortal tool…
He mumbled to himself as his body involuntarily hurtled toward the monster.
I want it, I really want it…

His desire erupted explosively, instantly drowning out any remaining shred of logic.
Boom!
Shuang Yukong crashed into the barrier of green light as a sharp ringing erupted in his head.
At that moment, he regained control over his emotions, and his expression shifted drastically as he looked at the three gigantic heads, which were almost within reach.
It would take a special type of idiot to still be oblivious to the fact that something was amiss.
Run! He had to run!!
He tore open a spatial rift without hesitation in an attempt to escape.
Crack…
Space was sealed, and a terrifying might that threatened to crush heaven and earth erupted forth.
Shuang Yukong’s body trembled uncontrollably, but he had been completely immobilized.
Among the three gigantic heads, the human head suddenly opened a pair of crimson eyes as a sinister smile appeared on its face…
