For the next two days, the ten of them from the Heaven Alliance were divided into two groups.
One group of three would stay in Gushan City to collect information.
The other group of seven would hunt and collect the loot. They had discussed that apart from the monster carcasses, the loot that the seven of them obtained would be split among the ten of them.
Lin Huang chose to stay in Gushan City to collect information in the library.
For the past two days, apart from when the library was closed at night, Lin Huang did not leave the library at all. With Bloody's help, he collected a massive amount of information every day.
The cultivation system in this world was completely different from the outside world.
In the outside world, Life Wheel Level cultivators were called mortal-level in this world. More commonly, they were called warriors.
The holy fire-level, which was a level higher, was called mortal transformation-level.
As for immortal-level, it was called ascendance-level.
The imperial-level, which was a level higher, was called human immortal-level.
Lin Huang even saw Earth immortal-level and celestial immortals of a higher level. He suspected that they corresponded to virtual god-level and true god-level in the outside world.
The titles of different levels in the ancient books were so complete. Lin Huang was sure that there must have been powerhouses on virtual god-level or even true god-level in this world, but he had no idea if there were any now.
However, ever since they entered the foggy area, the strongest powerhouse that Lin Huang and the rest had seen was only ascendance-level, which was immortal-level. They had not even seen a human immortal (imperial-level).
Lin Huang had read many books with that doubt in mind, but he could not find the reason behind the disappearance of human immortals. Eventually, he had no choice but to ask Lu Wen.
Lu Wen looked at Lin Huang in a strange way after hearing his question, but he explained anyway.
"You should know that one has to go through the Immortal Path to elevate to human immortal-level from ascendance-level, right?"
"I know that." Naturally, Lin Huang knew the conditions to elevate to human immortal-level very well. "I haven't seen any human immortals. Is it because the Immortal Path is difficult?"
"It's more than difficult …" Lu Wen shook his head and sighed helplessly. "Nobody has come back alive from the Immortal Path throughout the tens of thousands of years. Not even one! "
"It can't be?!" Lin Huang was shocked to hear that.
"It's not just humans. Those demons are the same. Those who went to the Immortal Path disappeared without a trace. " Lu Wen continued, "In the past thousand years, there have been rumors saying that the path to immortality in our world has been severed."
"You mean to say, there are no Human Immortals in this world?" Lin Huang quickly asked.
"I don't know if there are any now." Lu Wen shook his head helplessly. "I only know that tens of thousands of years ago, there were Human Immortals in this world, or even stronger existences. However, one day, all the experts above Human Immortal Stage disappeared. After that, something went wrong with the Immortal Path and no one else managed to ascend to Human Immortal. The stars in the heavens seem to be isolated as well. Human Immortals are also unable to ascend to the Earth Immortal realm through their Fated Star. "
"The lifespan of a Mortal Shedding is 1,800 years, while the lifespan of a Heaven Ascension is 3,000 years. No matter how strong a Mortal Immortal is, his lifespan is only 10,000 years. In order to survive, they had no choice but to seal themselves. From then on, the number of Human Immortals in the world decreased. Now that tens of thousands of years had passed, no one knew if those Human Immortals who sealed themselves were still alive. Moreover, no ascendance-level powerhouse dares to go to the Immortal Path now. "
"Didn't any Human Immortals try to go to the Immortal Path to see what went wrong?" Lin Huang could not help but ask.
"Of course. Many Human Immortals volunteered to investigate when the Immortal Path first went wrong. However, the outcome was the same as those ascendance-levels. None of them returned alive. "
The conversation with Lu Wen allowed Lin Huang to obtain a lot of information that was not recorded in the books.
However, he still did not know if there were any Human Immortals alive in this world.
While Lin Huang was busy in the city, Tan Lang and the rest outside the city were busy too.
When the seven of them worked together, they were able to defeat even the Demon Kings. Meanwhile, the lesser demons were just food to them.
Moreover, with Li Jia, the Bug Master, around, he managed to dig out the treasures of the Demon Kings and the demon leaders no matter how well they hid them.
Within a few days, the seven of them killed almost all the demons within 1,000 kilometers around Gushan City. None of them were left alive.
Just the storage rings alone, he had collected more than two hundred.
Late at night, the people from the Heaven Alliance sat together again.
Tan Lang took out all of the loot and began to distribute them.
"We encountered a perfect-stage ascendance-level monster today. Its ability is on par with mine. If the few of us didn't work together, we might not have been able to kill it. "Tan Lang could not help but tell them about the unsuccessful hunt.
"However, there's quite a lot of good stuff in her lair. There are three storage rings. I'm sure their previous owners were extremely powerful peak-stage ascendance-level powerhouses. There are hundreds of millions of spirit stones stored in the spirit cards. There's also a massive amount of rare metals. There's even a demigod relic in one of the storage rings! "
Although the cultivation system was different, the weapons and equipment in this world could be activated and used by Life Power.
"I'll sell the demigod relic when we get out. I'll give everyone Life Crystals as compensation. We'll divide the rest equally according to the old rules. Put the things that you don't want aside. Don't throw them around. "
After dividing the loot, the rest were miscellaneous items.
Lin Huang, on the other hand, collected all of the jade slips from the pile of miscellaneous items.
In reality, Li Jia had discovered that there were local cultivation methods hidden in the jade slips on the first day. He was a Bug Master, so his spiritual power was much more sensitive than ordinary people. He discovered the secret easily.
However, the method books in the jade slips only allowed one to cultivate up to ascendance-level at most.
Moreover, he had completely lost interest in the jade slips knowing that there had been no human immortals in this world for tens of thousands of years.
However, the jade slips were rare treasures to Lin Huang.
Two days ago, he began simulating cultivating the methods that he obtained from the jade slips and the library in his head after he was done with collecting information. He wanted to see how it would be like to cultivate them.
To his surprise, he found out that the simulated cultivation of the methods led to a significant increase in his mastery of the Twisted Fate Scripture.
Originally, when he cultivated the Twisted Fate Scripture, his proficiency increased by one point at a time. However, during this period of time, just by practicing a simple simulation of the cultivation method on the jade slip, his proficiency of the Twisted Fate Scripture had skyrocketed by tens of thousands.
In just a few days, the one million mastery points required for the first rotation of the Twisted Fate Scripture was almost maxed out.
As soon as he obtained the batch of jade slips, Lin Huang began scanning them with his Divine Telekinesis. He found out that there were two methods that could be cultivated to human immortal-level (imperial-level) directly.
After distributing the loot, Lin Huang and the other two began sharing the information that they had collected that day.
Tang Ning, who was responsible for communicating with the government residence and the Chamber of Commerce, brought bad news.
