I'm sorry. Maybe I drank some fake wine last night. I've had a terrible headache since this morning. I had to force myself to write the first chapter.
It's much better now, so I'll have to postpone the rest of the chapters to the afternoon and evening. My sincere apologies.
…!
Deep in the mountains, inside the White Wolf's cavern!
"Clang!"
Yu Haoran didn't dare to use his low-grade emperor stage sword because he wasn't familiar with the beast's background. He didn't want to damage the treasure inside the beast's head.
Therefore, he only relied on the sword's sharpness to try and cut open the beast's head.
However, when the low-grade emperor stage sword stabbed into the beast's head, it bounced off the beast's sturdy skin and bones.
"Yu Haoran, as a unique beast that can condense the power of the stars, the Earthly Cry Beast's defense is far stronger than its cultivation."
Thaling couldn't help but mock Yu Haoran when he saw that Yu Haoran wasn't using his dantian's energy and was only relying on his low-grade emperor stage sword.
"If it wasn't for the fact that the Earth Cry Beast has been dead for a long time and that its defensive capabilities have been weakened to the extreme, I wouldn't have even told you about its existence, let alone breaking its head open with a mere sixth-grade Martial Master like you."
In the face of the Pagoda Genie's sarcasm, Yu Haoran could only smile awkwardly. He hurriedly channeled all the energy in his dantian into the sword, and then viciously slashed at the Earth Cry Beast's head.
"Rip …!"
Accompanied by the sound of flesh and blood being torn apart, the low-grade emperor stage sword, infused with energy close to that of a Martial Ancestor, cut open the beast's head.
However, to Yu Haoran's surprise, not a single drop of blood flowed out of the wound.
Thaling wasn't surprised at all and continued to remind him.
"Yu Haoran, keep going until you cut open the beast's head!"
After hearing Thaling's reminder, Yu Haoran took out a few top-notch elemental energy recovery elixirs. As he continued to circulate his elemental energy, he slashed at the wounds that had already been cut open. At the same time, he used the elixirs to recover his rapidly depleted elemental energy.
After a total of nine slashes, the Earth Cry Beast's head was finally chopped in half, revealing Bai Yeye's brain matter inside the beast's head.
"Yu Haoran, jump into the brain. Then, follow my instructions and extract the Earth Cry Beast's eyes." Thaling continued to instruct when he saw that the Earth Soul Beast's head had been completely cut open.
In the Blue Moon Secret Realm, he even dared to jump into the quagmire formed by the excrement of exotic beasts, let alone the brain matter that looked disgusting but wasn't actually dirty.
Although the Earth Cry Beast's body was not big, only one-third of the Black Bear's size, its head was very big, occupying one-third of its entire body.
Therefore, if he wanted to extract the pair of eyes from its eye sockets, not only did he have to jump into the brain matter, he also had to immerse himself in the brain matter.
Seeing that Yu Haoran had already disappeared into the brain matter, Black Bear, who was standing beside the Earth Cry Beast, revealed an expression of admiration.
After all, as an exotic beast, Black Bear knew that he might not be able to do the same as Yu Haoran when faced with such a situation, ignoring the disgust and nausea and directly diving into the brain matter.
Fortunately, the brain matter was not too far away from the eye sockets. Yu Haoran quickly extracted the pair of eyes from the Earth Cry Beast's eye sockets, then quickly left the brain matter and left the Earth Cry Beast's corpse.
"Thaling, these are the eyes that you said had already condensed into stars!" Without having time to clean off the brain matter on his body, Yu Haoran's voice was vaguely suppressing his anger as he questioned.
In Yu Haoran's imagination, the eyes of the Earth Cry Beast, which possessed the ability to condense stars, had already completely condensed into stars, just as Thaling had said.
Then, the eyes that had completely condensed into stars should have displayed extraordinary abilities, not only in terms of their weight, but also in terms of the energy contained in the eyes.
And the result?!
Not only were the eyes as light as those of ordinary exotic beasts, the soul-pulling force he felt when he looked into the Earth Cry Beast's eyes had also completely disappeared.
This situation could only mean one thing: Thaling had made a mistake in his judgment. The Earth Cry Beast's eyes had not condensed into stars at all.
"Yu Haoran, haven't you heard of the saying, 'the more precious a treasure is, the more reserved its strength'?!"
Thaling reprimanded Yu Haoran, who was desperately suppressing his anger.
"Yu Haoran, do you know why the white wolf hid the Earth Cry Beast's corpse in the cave?!
"Do you know why the white wolf planted ordinary, nameless flowers on the Earth Cry Beast's corpse?!
"The reason it did that was because the Earth Cry Beast's eyes, which had already started condensing stars, wouldn't stop condensing stars even if it died.
"If the white wolf hadn't used the cave and flowers as a cover, the Earth Cry Beast would've fallen into the hands of other exotic beasts long ago.
"If it wasn't for the battle for the Celestial Lotus, which led to the White Wolf's death under your staff technique, I'm afraid that it would have used the newly condensed star to directly break through to the Fourth Stage and become the first Saint Stage beast in this mountain range."
Yu Haoran was speechless in the face of Thaling's machine-gun-like criticism. He did not know how to refute it.
Originally, according to the time the Emperor Qin's Qin Alliance Conference was going to be held, and the distance between the Hundred Chi Gate and Xianyang City of the Emperor Qin's Qin Alliance Conference, he was supposed to depart for Weiyang City the next day.
However, Hei Xiong suddenly suggested that Yu Haoran sweep through the ten emperor realm exotic beasts' cave dwellings in the depths of the mountain range.
Not only were the ten exotic beasts at Rank Five, but they had all died during the battle for the immortal lotus in the primeval forest. He was very tempted.
That was why he had asked He Ruyu to bring Wu Zhengjun out first. He planned to use Hei Xiong's flying speed to catch up with them after he was done sweeping through the emperor realm exotic beasts' cave dwellings.
Currently, apart from the Six-tailed White Fox and the white wolf's cave dwelling, he had not found any valuable treasures in the eight cave dwellings he had swept through so far apart from some spirit stones and spirit herbs. This made him feel very depressed.
It was because of the depression he had accumulated for a long time that he was so angry when he saw the Earth Cry Beast's eyes, which had no energy fluctuations at all.
Thaling took a deep breath when he heard Yu Haoran slowly explain the reason for his anger. Not only did he forgive Yu Haoran for doubting him, he also planned to let Yu Haoran experience how extraordinary the Earth Cry Beast's eyes were through personal experience.
"Yu Haoran, I'll teach you a secret method to refine magic tools. With this method, you can directly refine the Earth Cry Beast's eyes into magic tools that can assist your cultivation. When that happens, you'll know how precious these eyes are."
The secret method to refine magic tools was directly transmitted into Yu Haoran's sea of consciousness through his Divine Thought.
After greeting Hei Xiong, Yu Haoran sat cross-legged on the stone bed with his legs bent. He began to experience the secret method Thaling taught him.
