It was dangerous to deal with these Snake Vines. He was entangled by these Snake Vines a few times and had no choice but to destroy a large number of vines before he finally got rid of these living vines.
Furthermore, after Mu Zi cut down a large number of Snake Vines, the deathly spiritual pressure that had been suppressing him suddenly disappeared. It was as if there was a reason why Hell Island had acknowledged Mu Zi's existence after going through a long test.
Without the spiritual pressure, Mu Zi's cultivation had unknowingly slowed down. Thus, Mu Zi planned to go out and replenish his supplies before coming back. At the very least, he wanted to change into a few sets of clothes. Furthermore, he wanted to see if he could raise some cloud chickens here to eat. He had not eaten any fish for a month. Although flowers could replenish the energy he needed, they were tasteless in his mouth. Mu Zi felt that if he continued like this, he would soon forget how to use his tongue.
Although he was used to being alone in the past, he had never truly owed his mouth and tongue.
Mu Zi used the trees and vines on the island to make a small boat. It was rather simple and crude, but like the Life and Death Coffin, it would not be corroded by the Netherworld River. At the same time, he collected some ghost-faced flowers. The effects of these flowers were not bad, and he believed that there would be people outside who would recognize them. After making a list, Mu Zi realized that he had many things to exchange for outside.
Stepping onto the small boat, Mu Zi did not plan to return to the cold Faction. He missed Aiolos and Wang Zhong a little, but the surface was even more unsuitable for him. The discrimination and indifference there were far worse than on Earth. Compared to that, he was more willing to stay on Hell Island alone. Even if he had to eat flowers for the rest of his life, he would still be willing to face the cold discrimination.
Or perhaps there was nothing bad about being a wanderer on the Netherworld River.
When he thought of this, Mu Zi patted the side of the small boat. When he exchanged for some key items, he could think of ways to make the small boat less simple and crude. It would definitely be very effective to build a canopy or a cabin.
He believed that Wang Zhong, Aiolos, and the others would definitely come and find him.
There were countless Factions on both sides of the Netherworld River. The battles in the underground world were often unstoppable and tragic. Some experts who had been exiled would also fight for a place here. However, unlike the order on the surface, the Star Alliance basically turned a blind eye to what happened underground. As long as they did not provoke key figures, no one would care.
The Star Alliance was well aware of the principle of moderation and control, and the underground world was a gray area where various civilizations and forces released their pressure.
The grievances between the Netherworld Insect Sect and the Ghost Spirit Cult could be traced back to a bunch of stupid things that happened hundreds of years ago. This caused them to fight for hundreds of years, constantly adding weight to their hatred.
The Netherworld Bug Faction mostly came from a branch of the Bug race and was considered an outstanding level-5 civilization. Meanwhile, their sworn enemy, the Ghost Spirit Church, was a group of level-5 soul creatures.
In today's battle, both sides had sent out hundreds of disciples. This battle would determine the ownership of this section of the Netherworld River for the next year. Both sides were having a great time fighting. The two leaders would occasionally issue orders to adjust the distribution of their troops.
Just at this moment, a mist suddenly moved over from the Netherworld River. Very quickly, it spread towards the shore and enveloped the battlefield of the decisive battle.
The two sides that were fighting each other retreated back to their camps in shock. They had lived in this river basin for hundreds of years, but the Netherworld River today seemed somewhat unfamiliar. The two factions that had just been fighting each other suddenly became vigilant together as if they were old friends.
Suddenly, a small boat slid out from the mist.
Everyone was dumbfounded and blankly stared at the boat. After a moment of silence, both sides exploded into an argument.
"What's this?"
"There's actually someone in the Netherworld River?"
Over the past thousand years, any life that could come into contact with the Netherworld River had obtained its recognition. Without exception, these life forms had become almighty beings. There were countless legends about these experts in the underground world, but very few had personally seen them. In particular, in the past hundred years, almost no one had seen them.
All the life forms in the underground world revolved around the Netherworld River. In their hearts, the Netherworld River had the same status as the Heavenly River above. In fact, it was even more devout. Now, someone had actually come from the depths of the Netherworld River, completely shocking these people.
The mist dispersed, and everyone saw a life form that was wrapped in death vines. The two leaders of the Netherworld Insect Sect and the Ghost Spirit Church gulped. In their eyes, they had definitely encountered an almighty being.
Almost at the same time, the two of them kowtowed three times at Mu Zi and fought to be the first to introduce themselves.
"Senior, I'm the Sect Leader of the Netherworld Insect Sect. I'm willing to serve you!"
"Senior, I'm the Sect Leader of the Ghost Spirit Church. If you have any requests, just tell me!"
Mu Zi waved his hand, and two ghost-faced flowers immediately flew towards the two of them. The moment they saw the ghost-faced flowers, they revealed expressions of disbelief and surprise. This was the legendary red spider lily, a top-notch ingredient for making pills!
The red spider lily had not appeared for over a hundred years. This was a divine item that could only be found in the depths of the Netherworld River!
The two of them became even more respectful. They were extremely lucky to be able to casually take out two red spider lilies. Then, a coffin flew out. The two of them were dumbfounded and immediately reacted. They immediately placed the valuable items on their bodies into the coffin.
Mu Zi furrowed his eyebrows. He was not very interested, but it did not matter. The coffin returned, and the small boat followed the mist back into the Netherworld River. Then, it floated towards the depths of the Netherworld River.
"I'll come again next month. Prepare some delicious food."
The two of them were dumbfounded. Delicious food?
The two of them looked at each other and flashed terrifying smiles. They had struck it rich!
However, the news could not be suppressed at all. An almighty Netherworld River Wanderer had appeared. It was very likely that this almighty had not appeared in the world for a long time. However, this was not important. What was important was that the almighty wanted to use the red spider lily to make a transaction. This instantly caused a commotion among the various large Factions near the Netherworld River. It even alarmed some top Factions.
Weapon refinery.
The Three Great Halls had their own teaching area. Yesterday, the teaching area of the Pill Refinery Hall was at Furnace Mountain. It was rumored that the entire mountain was once the pill furnace of an ancient almighty. However, the era was too long ago, and no one had the ability to use it. However, there was still an endless furnace fire inside that nourished all living things. Thus, moss and mountain rocks gradually grew. After a long period of time, the Furnace Mountain of today was formed. The stone furnace that Elder Yimo had sat on yesterday was just an ordinary statue on the Furnace Mountain. However, after being nourished in the Furnace Mountain for a long time and being influenced by the furnace fire underground, the stone furnace had become a furnace that was almost like a divine artifact. It was extremely mysterious.
Meanwhile, the Weapon Refinery Hall was on the other side of the Furnace Mountain. It was also a holy land that nurtured weapons, but unlike the various fresh and natural paths on the other side of the Furnace Mountain, this place was filled with traces of civilization. Even the entire mountain looked extremely three-dimensional. It did not seem as if it was naturally formed, but rather as if it had been deliberately refined by humans. It was like a massive cube that was suspended in the air above a vast empty space.
This was the interior of the Heavenly Gates, where the spiritual pressure and gravity were extremely high. It was very difficult to fly here just by relying on spiritual power. Lao Wang stood at the foot of the mountain and looked at the building that was suspended 1,000 meters in the air. He was slightly puzzled. Many crystal stones naturally formed in the air with popping sounds, as if the massive suspended cube had sensed Lao Wang's desire to walk up and automatically paved a path for him to walk up. Lao Wang was stunned.
When he stepped on it, he did not even need to take a step. He only felt that the crystal stones were rapidly advancing. They were flat and stable, and there was no sound at all. Even the sound of the wind when he was rapidly advancing seemed to have been automatically blocked. In the blink of an eye, he had covered the distance of over 1,000 meters and entered the interior of the cube. Even though he had seen many grand scenes, he could only describe this as a work of the gods.
He saw a massive hall in front of him. Three eye-catching words were engraved on the top of the hall: Creation Hall.
Compared to the Pill Refinery Hall class yesterday, there were clearly much fewer people today.
Equipment refinery was not very meaningful to Pill Refinery Hall students. In fact, they did not even think much of it. Furthermore, to Combat Cultivation, there was almost no need to learn this. Furthermore, in the Equipment Refinery Hall, most of the people who had been selected had been born with equipment refinery legacies. For example, Jhonas's Illusion race was a famous weapon refinery race in the divine territory.
At that moment, other than pupils from the Equipment Refinery Hall, there were only about 100 to 200 auditing students who had entered the Creation Hall and were waiting for the class to start. Furthermore, most of them probably had the attitude of coming here to gain some experience. There was an 80 to 90% chance that they would not come for the next class.
Jhonas greeted Lao Wang and went to the front to find his seat. Meanwhile, Lao Wang waited behind with a group of auditing students. He was also observing the layout of the Creation Hall and felt that the spiritual influence contained in this room was extremely abundant. However, even the spiritual influence did not feel as pure and natural. It was as if it had been deliberately divided and guided by someone.
Pill refinery was particular about following one's destiny and being natural. If 10,000 people were to refine the same pill, there might be 10,000 refinery methods and 10,000 steps. The most important thing was their understanding of pill refinery and their control over the pill. It was not a process of rote memorization.
However, equipment refinery was different. Under most circumstances, equipment refinery was something that was formulaic. Every step had a clear goal, and many results were completely controllable by a Equipment Refinery Master. Furthermore, they had to achieve 100% perfection as expected … This was fundamentally different from pill refinery.
There was a buzzing noise in the surroundings. Some people were guessing who would be teaching today. In the past, the Equipment Refinery Hall had always been taught by supervisors. Thus, a majority of people felt that the teacher today would be a high-leveled supervisor. Perhaps an elder would not appear like yesterday. However, they did not expect that before the mystery was revealed, another celebrity that attracted the attention of everyone had arrived.
The daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, Celeste.
She was one of the four most eye-catching geniuses in this batch of Heavenly Gates students. She had shocking natural talents and had even appeared together with supervisor Erza yesterday. She had already taken the lead and was faintly showing signs of suppressing the other three. She was destined to be an absolutely dazzling new star among this batch of Heavenly Gates pupils. She had actually come to the Creation Hall to listen to equipment refinery lessons?
When they saw her arrive, countless people widened their eyes. They were confused and curious. A pill refiner had come to listen to equipment refinery lessons? To be honest, out of all the auditing students present, only Celeste was a pill refiner.
A disciple from the Equipment Refinery Hall tried to curry favor with Celeste and invited her to take a seat at the front. However, he was very politely rejected. There was a short period of silence in the Creation Hall. Closely after, buzzing noises filled the surroundings, mixed with excitement and curiosity. They did not understand why this proud lady would spend time to come to such a place.
"A truly powerful member of the Shell race will not only cultivate pills. Their natural shells are an extremely powerful dimensional barrier. If they can refine them, they will be comparable to a godly weapon."
"But she doesn't need to come to the Creation Hall to listen to lessons with ordinary pupils, right? With her status, with just a word from the supervisor, could it be that she would not be able to invite a weapon refinery master to personally teach her? "
"It's also possible that she's just here to experience the teaching atmosphere in the Creation Hall and experience life. She definitely won't be coming to the next lesson. Who knows?"
Various discussions rose in the surroundings, and the entire place buzzed. However, Celeste did not seem to care about what the bystanders were saying. She simply casually found a corner of the auditing students' seats and sat down by herself. She looked as if she was a thousand miles away from everyone. At this moment, the teaching supervisor of the Equipment Refinery Hall arrived.
Just as everyone had guessed, the teacher of the Equipment Refinery Hall was indeed a high-ranking supervisor. Although they had expected this, many expectant pupils from the Equipment Refinery Hall were dejected. After all, the elders of the Heavenly Gates and supervisors were on completely different levels. Listening to the teachings of such an almighty Gold Core expert was the greatest enjoyment in life.
However, to be able to be rated as a high-ranking supervisor, one would definitely not be able to do so without some strength.
This was a high-ranking supervisor from the Natural race. He was a rather amiable elder, and his aura was not as powerful as Elder Yimo's yesterday. He did not have the Sanskrit voice, but when he taught, every sentence was classic and thought-provoking. As a result, everyone quickly ignored the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, who was sitting at the side with a low profile. Instead, they focused their attention on knowledge. Wang Zhong also wanted to listen. In the future, he might have to refine a weapon for himself. No matter what, knowledge was the most important.
Needless to say, the Natural race was the most peaceful among the level-8 civilizations and was in a neutral position. They were more respected, and many civilizations had received help from them. For example, the Shell race had miraculously climbed from a level-5 civilization to a level-8 civilization. Other than the fact that a few super experts had appeared in their race, the increase in the overall strength of the entire race and the development of their natural endowments in pill studies were closely related to the help of the Natural race. Thus, the status of the Natural race had always been rather stable.
Just like the previous pill lesson, this was an explanation of the basic outline of equipment refinery. It was not easier than pill refinery.
From the perspective of 'equipment', it could be divided into two types.
The first type were public artifacts. Their functions were prepared for the Divine Realm and were used by the various great influences. Weapons, puppets, array flags, array discs, and even enchantments were also a type of public artifact. They had many functions and there was no fixed master. Everyone could use them, so they were public artifacts.
For example, Wang Zhong's Nebula Sword and Solomon's Nine-Headed Snake Sword were public equipment that had been bestowed to the lower worlds. They were only a basic requirement in the divine territory. However, if they were thrown into the lower worlds, they would cause chaos in the world and everyone would fight over them.
The other type was private equipment. They were compatible with the soul of the user and possessed spirituality. They could only be used for personal purposes and could not be changed owners. One could forge one's own equipment or forge it for others.
The equipment was also divided into grades. The so-called divine equipment and equipment were basically overstated by others. The standard division was from nine grades to one. The value of a level-one divine equipment was not below that of a level-one elixir, and it could significantly increase one's strength. Experts who possessed a level-one divine equipment could almost fight against two experts of the same level. This was an important part of an expert's strength and was extremely impressive. Of course, the difficulty was equally high. There was even a saying that the entire divine territory was a divine equipment. Of course, this was a supreme divine equipment, the essence of the Fifth Dimension civilization.
This was only the equipment itself. Furthermore, there were many types of equipment refinery, such as soul nurturing techniques, forging techniques, and so on.
Furthermore, equipment was not completely an external object. If one had a deeper understanding, equipment was a part of one's body. It could even be said that any part of one's body that was lacking could be made up for with equipment. This was slightly similar to the understanding that the Tyrants in the Holy City had towards refining one's body. Of course, the Equipment Refinery Hall definitely had a much deeper understanding.
This high-leveled supervisor from the Natural race explained in great detail. Everyone who listened to the lecture had gained something, but Wang Zhong felt that it was a little too complicated. It was not good to be greedy. Equipment refinery was not his current main task. In comparison, pill studies were more important.
Even though he had spent a day, it was not a waste of time to reach this conclusion. However, what made Lao Wang slightly speechless was that he clearly saw that Flying Pig Jhonas, who was sitting in front of him, had fallen asleep again.
He could ignore the pill studies yesterday. After all, this was not his main subject, but equipment refinery was his main subject. How could he fall asleep? Furthermore, he was drooling as he slept right in front of the high-leveled supervisor from the Natural race. Even though the supervisor from the Natural race had a relatively good temper and did not blame him, Lao Wang was speechless. What exactly was this fellow doing here? He had paid a thousand Gold Star Stones to come and sleep in the Heavenly Gates? If his elders knew about this, would they simply beat him to death?
"How can that be? Boss, you don't understand me. " Jhonas explained to Lao Wang with a serious expression. "We are from the Illusion race. The Illusion race is the best at dreaming! Don't underestimate me when I sleep. Once I fall asleep, heh heh heh, I am truly invincible! "
"Tomorrow is the Combat Cultivation class. You can use your great sleeping technique to become invincible." Lao Wang teased him.
"That's your territory, Boss. How can I do that?" Jhonas was becoming more and more immoral. Over the past two to three days, he had gradually familiarized himself with Lao Wang's temper. Frankly speaking, this was a Boss who could joke around. "Don't worry, Boss. I definitely believe you. I have my vision. Even though your spiritual quality is fourth-grade and everyone thinks that you will be eliminated … you will definitely be impressive when you fight. I will quietly watch Boss act cool!"
"I'm going to class. Act cool?" Lao Wang did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"For the sake of points!" Jhonas hurriedly said, "I heard that the Combat Cultivation Hall is different from pill refinery and equipment refinery. Every day is filled with blood. Boss, don't keep a low profile in the Combat Cultivation Hall. What's the use of keeping a low profile? You have to be high-profile! Show me the strength that you used to beat me up. Beat up whoever you don't like. When that time comes, you will be invincible in the Combat Cultivation Hall and obtain the highest number of points every day. Then, you will forcefully enter the Pill Refinery Hall as the top student in the Combat Cultivation Hall … "
