A Good Romance

The outer shell of this scorpion was made of metal, so it was especially sturdy. Even Ling Han felt his feet go numb.
The scorpion died, leaving behind a tiny bit of gold essence.
It was a grain of golden sand, but it was much brighter than the sand in the desert. Even if it was thrown into the sand, it would stand out like a crane in a flock of chickens, very conspicuous.
Ling Han put away this grain of Gold Essence, and continued to advance.
He returned to the extremely boring life of killing monsters. Every day, he would search for metal elemental creatures, kill them, and then obtain their metal essence in order to become stronger in the future.
In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.
Ling Han's cultivation speed was very fast. He encountered another node, and after crossing it, he opened another nine chakras.
Now, the number of apertures he had opened had reached 72.
In fact, most people broke through to the Secret Seeking Realm in the second stage. Those who broke through in the first and third stages were the minority, and those who could open the hidden cave were even fewer.
"The progress is a little slow. If that's the case, when I concoct the Five Elements Fortune Pill, I probably haven't reached the peak of the Secret Seeking Realm yet."
In reality, it wasn't that Ling Han's cultivation speed was slow, but rather that he was collecting Five Elemental Crystal Elements too quickly. It had to be known that an ordinary person would need at least a few hundred years to collect Five Elemental Crystal Elements with their own efforts.
And him?
In less than half a year, he already had three sets of Five Elemental Crystal Essence in his hands. In comparison, his cultivation speed was naturally slow.
What a blissful annoyance.
A few days later, he met a group of people who were also collecting Metal Essence. He was eating when these people came up to him and demanded that he hand over his Metal Essence. Of course, Ling Han wouldn't be polite and robbed them clean. He also learned of a legend from them.
"In the depths of the Golden Desert, there is a temple. Hidden within it is a peerless opportunity."
These people were professional at collecting Metal Essence. Because there were always powers that wanted to refine the Five Elements Fortune Pill for their juniors, it was very easy to meet people collecting Five Elements Essence in various Five Elements Lands.
This time, all the Metal Essence they obtained was sold to the Pang Clan. They also had another goal, and that was to find that Divine Temple. From then on, they would be able to cast off their lowly status and become outstanding people.
However, the temple only existed in legends. Some people swore that they had seen it, but most people had never seen it.
Moreover, everyone knew that there might be signs of a mirage in the desert. Who knew what those people saw?
Among this group of people, there was one person who claimed to have seen the temple. It was also because of his persistence that everyone had been chasing after the temple with dreams, even though they had already spent more than 30 years here.
Ling Han was just listening. His main goal was, of course, the Five Elements Fortune Pill. He wanted to perfect his foundation and walk towards the pinnacle of Martial Art.
He spared these people and continued to eat.
The little girl was curious and said, "Ling Han, do you think we can find that temple?"
"Following the crowd's opinion, the credibility of this matter is less than 10%," Ling Han said.
"Hey, handsome big brother, you're too pessimistic." Tang Yun 'er shook her head. "You should believe that with this baby here, your luck will definitely be heaven-defying."
Ling Han chuckled. "Just like how you always hit someone!"
Tang Yun 'er was instantly embarrassed and argued, "Don't you know the law of conservation of luck? If you have too much luck, it is inevitable that you will have some bad luck. Only then will you have good luck again."
"Ke-Ke."
Somewhere in the desert …
"Your Highness, we have been searching here for dozens of days. We are running out of clean water and food. Should we leave for now and replenish ourselves?" A grey-robed elder asked respectfully.
There were a total of eight of them, and they were all wearing cloaks on their heads, looking very mysterious. However, as they were eating, their faces were still revealed.
One young man and seven elders. The young man looked to be in his twenties and had a stalwart figure with bright eyebrows and starry eyes. He might just be sitting there, but he had a captivating aura presence. The seven elders all had different appearances, but they were all led by the young man and appeared very reverent.
This young man was the Crown Prince of the Azure Dragon Empire and had a shocking status.
On the surface, the Azure Dragon Empire was a cult master-class force, but there was an old Venerate overseeing it. Thus, they were able to rule over a star region and had astounding power. Such a powerful force had to be very careful when selecting a successor.
In order to ensure that the leader was the most outstanding, every member of the imperial family would be able to become the Crown Prince if they displayed enough innate talents. However, if their cultivation wasn't up to par or if they made any grave mistakes, they would be stripped of the title of Crown Prince and would never be able to become a Crown Prince again.
Thus, the Azure Dragon Empire had around a hundred Crown Princes, and their ages were all different. There were old Crown Princes that were over a thousand years old, and there were also those like this young man who were only in his twenties.
His name was Meng Yangcheng, and he was currently ranked 97th among the Crown Princes. It was very low, but if his age was included, it could be said that he had a boundless future.
"That's right, Your Highness. The Divine Temple is just hearsay. Who knows if it exists or not?" Another elder advised, "Your Highness, you are too precious. Why don't you let this old servant search for it? If we really find the Divine Temple, it wouldn't be too late to inform Your Highness."
Meng Yangcheng snorted and said, "What do you know? Back then, the Divine Temple had automatically retreated into the Golden Desert. For so many years, only a limited number of people had seen it. That was because it was originally active. By the time you inform me, it would already be too late."
The seven elders were astonished. Could the legend of the Divine Temple actually be true?
Meng Yangcheng opened his mouth and didn't intend to stop. He continued, "30,000 years ago, the Buddha Race wanted to preach in this place, but this empire naturally didn't allow it. Those people from the Buddha Race specialized in bewitching people's hearts. If everyone was to become their believers, would this star region still belong to the Meng Clan?"
"The Great Ancestor Emperor mobilized all the experts to fight against the Buddha Race. He might have successfully defeated them, but he wasn't able to eliminate them all. The remnants of the Buddha Race drove the Divine Temple into the Golden Desert."
"That so-called Divine Temple was the vehicle that they used to traverse the universe. It itself was a powerful artifact, but the Great Ancestor Emperor was sure that even if the remnants escaped into the desert, they were all severely injured and would be completely wiped out in no time."
"However, it was also because of that battle that the Great Ancestor Emperor was severely injured. He had no choice but to pass down the throne and go into seclusion to recuperate."
"Otherwise, we wouldn't have been in such a passive position when the Shadow Moon Empire invaded this time and lost a few resource planets!"
Meng Yangcheng spoke with a gloomy expression.
The seven elders didn't dare to continue, but they were shocked. It turned out that the legend of the Divine Temple was not only true, but it also involved the Great Ancestor Emperor, who was that old Supremacy.
If Ling Han was here, he would be able to deduce some things.
For example, why didn't the Azure Dragon Empire send someone to Heavenly Sea Star to take a look at the situation of the array seal? They were invaded by another empire and were in a terrible fix. How could they have the energy to care about a cage?
