Due to unknown reasons that allowed him to continue absorbing Divine Fire, Lin Huang had to change his itinerary and postpone his plan to leave the Battlefield of the Dragon Abyss. He continued to stay in the core layer to hunt.
The core layer was undoubtedly a good place. Ninth-rank True Gods could be seen almost everywhere.
It took Lin Huang less than half an hour to hunt another four ninth-rank monsters.
When he killed the fourth, the Life Wheel finally stopped absorbing Divine Fire.
"It's full?!" Lin Huang sank his consciousness into the Life Wheel to check, somewhat puzzled.
Among the ten Life Wheels, five of them had stacked two ninth-rank Divine Fires, while the other five had only absorbed one Divine Fire.
"What's going on? Why aren't these five Life Wheels absorbing anymore? " With doubts, Lin Huang checked the differences in the Divine Fires in the five Life Wheels. After a while, he finally discovered what the problem was.
Five Life Wheels with two ninth-rank Divine Fires, and the ninth-rank Divine Fires inside were all rank-4 and rank-5 Divine Fires. The five rank-5 ninth-rank Divine Fires came from the Demonic Buddhist Holy Son, the aberrant species, the Nine Apes, the Demon Infant, and the Symbiotic Abyssal Spring.
The remaining five Life Wheels only had one ninth-rank Divine Fire, and they only had rank-4 Divine Fires. There were no rank-5 Divine Fires.
"So it's full of rank-4 Divine Fires and can only absorb rank-5 Divine Fires?!"
With this speculation in mind, Lin Huang instantly understood the direction of his next hunt.
His Divine Telekinesis swept out and began to lock onto the strongest auras in the core layer one by one.
"Found one!" In just a moment, the corners of his lips could not help but curl up slightly, and he quickly fled toward the figure.
However, he had not flown far when the figure seemed to realize that Lin Huang was chasing after it and began to flee quickly.
"I've been discovered …" The corners of Lin Huang's lips curled up, and he chased even more vigorously.
The two of them chased and fled, and it took more than ten minutes for Lin Huang to finally catch up with the other party.
It was a monster with dozens of pairs of black wings. It was dressed in white and wore a silver mask on its face. If one ignored the wings on its back, it didn't look much different from a human.
Before Lin Huang could make a move, the winged man stopped moving and put away the cane in his hand. He said to Lin Huang, "I surrender! Don't kill me! "
"You're not weak. Don't you want to fight?" Lin Huang raised his eyebrows.
The reason he did not make a move right away was that, unlike the nine apes who had begged for mercy, the creature had not provoked him and had no intention of making a move.
"I saw your battle just now. I'm no match for you," the winged man said honestly. "It's meaningless to resist in front of you."
What shocked the winged man even more was that Lin Huang's speed was actually able to catch up to it. After all, the reason it was able to survive in the core layer to this day was because of its unique speed. Even its strongest point had been easily surpassed by the other party, so it naturally knew that the gap between their comprehensive strength was not just a little.
"Then give me a reason not to kill you." Lin Huang smiled at him.
"I'm Shadow Wing. I'm very familiar with the core layer. I can be your guide. "The winged man bowed at Lin Huang and then introduced himself.
"You're so content to betray your own kind?" Lin Huang snorted at such behavior.
"That's where you're wrong." Shadow Wing was not annoyed and corrected him with a smile. "There are billions of species in the Abyss. Just like the human world, there are birds, beasts, and insects, but the birds, beasts, and insects aren't the same kind as humans. It's the same in the Abyss. Apart from my kind and a few allied tribes, the other tribes aren't our kind. You could even say they're our enemies. Naturally, there's no betrayal. "
Lin Huang did not refute that. Although he had never been to the real Abyss, he knew that there were many species in the Abyss and the competition was fierce. There was indeed no friendship between different tribes.
It was normal that the other party did not see the other tribes in the Abyss as their kind.
After a moment's thought, Lin Huang made a request. "I don't need a guide. I just need prey."
"As long as you can help me find five or more prey as strong as you, or even stronger, I can let you go." I can let you go. "According to the map in the Pavilion of Rarities, the core layer was about the size of four Earths. In a situation where Divine Telekinesis was extremely compressed, it would indeed take some time for Lin Huang to find five Rank-5 prey.
If the other party could really help him find five suitable prey quickly, then there was nothing wrong with letting it go.
After Shadow Wing heard Lin Huang's request, the eye on the silver mask blinked twice. "That simple?"
"Don't say that too soon." Although the other party agreed quickly, Lin Huang did not fully believe that he could do it.
"I've been in the Battlefield of the Dragon Abyss for more than a decade and have been in this core layer for more than three years. I can't say for other things, but I'm afraid there aren't many people who are more familiar with this core layer than I am. "
"If you want to hunt Rank-5 creatures, I happen to know a few hunting teams with Rank-5 members. In total, there are far more than five. "Shadow Wing laughed.
"The hunters' whereabouts are uncertain. What's the use of knowing who the members of those teams are? Don't tell me you can lock onto their location?" Lin Huang asked.
"There's something you don't know. In this core layer, there's a place called the core source, where Abyssal energy is the densest. Even top-tier true god-level powerhouses don't dare to go near it. The core source can continuously spawn powerful Abyssal creatures. The strongest teams in the core layer have divided the area near the core source into several hunting grounds, each occupying one side. The members of these teams will spend most of their time in their own hunting grounds once they enter the core layer. So, it's not difficult to find them. "
After listening to Shadow Wing's description, Lin Huang remembered the map sold to him by the Pavilion of Rarities. There was a large red shaded area without any text description. He guessed that it was most likely the location of the core source that Shadow Wing mentioned.
He could not help but ask curiously, "The core source can spawn powerful Abyssal monsters out of thin air?!"
"Yes." Shadow Wing nodded. "No one knows exactly how it works. Some say that there's a spatial tunnel deep in the core source that connects to the depths of the Abyss. Others say that the core source is connected to the God Kingdom of some powerful Abyssal being. Others say that the entire core layer is the laboratory of some powerful Abyssal being … "
"In fact, other than spawning Abyssal creatures out of thin air. Throwing living or inanimate creatures other than Abyssal creatures into the depths of the core source will also cause them to be invaded by Abyssal energy and spawn mutants, duoluozhongs, undying types, or spirit types … "
"The sword cultivator mutant you killed was forced into the depths of the core layer by a hunting team, and that's why it mutated …" Shadow Wing had obviously been paying attention to Lin Huang since the battle with the mutant.
Lin Huang frowned slightly.
Noticing that Lin Huang's expression was not right, Shadow Wing quickly changed the subject. "The Abyssal energy in the core source is too dense. True Gods can't go deep at all. As for what secrets it actually hides, perhaps only the few Lords who set up the barrier back then know. "
"I got it." Lin Huang nodded slightly. He could not be bothered to continue talking nonsense with the other party. "Take me straight to the hunting grounds!"
