In the middle of a dense forest, a spacious waterfall stood there.
On the waterfall, a large amount of water continuously flowed down and landed on the ground, giving off cracking sounds.
Water splashed in all directions, and a mist spread out from where he was standing. It was quite beautiful, and it brought with it a natural scene.
Taking Xu Sen with him, Adil came here and saw a familiar person.
It was a tall and sturdy man wearing only a piece of animal skin clothing. His entire body was sturdy, and his muscles were coiled up. He looked strong and powerful.
It was the Herculean King. His upper body was bare, and he sat under the waterfall in Silence. It was as if he was using the force of the waterfall to cleanse his body and make it stronger.
As if sensing the arrival of Adil and Xu Sen, the Herculean King slowly opened his eyes. A pair of sharp eyes looked in the direction of Adil and Xu Sen and was taken aback.
"It's you …"
Looking at Adil, he was first stunned. Then he sensed that Adil's energy had almost dried up and he could not help but frown. "Why has your aura become so weak?"
"That's a long story."
In the distance, Adil walked over from the end of the road. He smiled and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm cleansing my source," the Herculean King said.
"That day, when you fought with the Sun God, I collected some of the blood you left behind. I wanted to absorb it into my body to improve myself further."
Adil felt quite startled and looked at the Herculean King. He could not help but admire his boldness and said, "You really dared to do it."
"Why wouldn't I dare?" The Force King shook his head and said, "The worst outcome is death. Everyone has to die eventually. Dying here or dying of old age, in my opinion, there is no difference."
"That's right."
Adil nodded and looked at the Herculean King as he asked, "What was the result?"
"Very bad," the Herculean King said.
"I tried to pour your blood and the Sun God's into my body, but I found that I could not fuse your blood at all, let alone obtain your power.
"If I force it in, I'm afraid that my body will explode in the end."
"So, I changed my way of thinking."
Looking at Adil, he said, "Since directly injecting your blood into my body and absorbing your powers won't work, I'll try something else."
"I'm going to pour your blood into my body again, but this time, I'm not going to absorb it. Instead, I'm going to fight against it. I'm going to use your blood and essence to temper myself over a long period of time. I'm going to constantly put pressure on my own essence, and through this constant resistance, my essence will become even stronger."
"I see."
Hearing this, Adil had a look of surprise on his face. "That's a good idea."
The origin of a rank five existence was unique, pure and tyrannical.
If the Power King rashly chose to absorb it into his body, the outcome would not be good.
They would either explode and die, or they would be engulfed by an even stronger source of power, and finally be assimilated into a puppet of a higher existence.
At the end of the day, peeking at a higher power from a lower level was an extremely dangerous act.
The Power King could sense that something was wrong and quickly withdrew from it. He was quite decisive and vigilant.
His current method was undoubtedly much more correct.
Instead of peeking at a higher level of power, he was using a higher-level source as an opponent to temper himself and make his own source even more powerful.
This was undoubtedly very slow, and compared to directly absorbing other existences' power, it was very inefficient. However, it was a feasible path. Even though it was also dangerous, at least it was feasible.
A faint light flickered before his eyes.
The Force King bowed slightly as he looked at Adil and Wang Zhong. Then, he waved his hand, and a faint source of light flickered. It contained a pure source aura, and it was the same as the power that the Force King had in the past.
"You've indeed become much stronger."
Looking at what the Power King had revealed, Adil nodded, expressing his approval of what he had done during this period of time.
"To be able to receive your praise, my efforts have not been in vain."
Hearing Adil's words, the Power King nodded and softly sighed, "It's a pity that I'm still lacking a bit. I can't break through the boundary of the King class."
He softly sighed.
As someone who had reincarnated, in his previous life, he had stood at the peak of the King class for a long time.
After reincarnating, his essence from his previous life had also been awakened, allowing him to reach the peak of the King class. However, after such a long time, he was still unable to break through and could only increase his power slightly.
Standing there, listening to the Power King's words, Adil shook his head.
How could it be that easy to advance from the Fourth Order to the Fifth Order?
In the Sorcerer World, even with the most complete inheritance and the best environment and resources, advancing from the Fourth Order to the Fifth Order was still incredibly difficult.
The entire Emerald Tower ruled over tens of billions of Elves, supported by countless worlds' resources, but in the end, only three Fifth Order Great Sorcerers had been produced. Among the others, apart from Adil, only Yala had a slight chance of advancing.
It was already extremely difficult for an ordinary Fourth Order to advance to the Fifth Order, let alone this world's inferior goods.
Indeed, in Adil's eyes, the so-called King class in this world were all inferior goods.
After obtaining Yang Lin's memories, Adil had observed Chen Qing, the Power King, and the others. Although he did not understand how these King class existences were born, he had obtained some information.
In terms of essence, the King class existences in this world had indeed reached the Fourth Order. However, the density of their origin source was completely insufficient, which severely lowered the standard of a Fourth Order existence.
Take the Herculean King in front of him for example. His essence was indeed strong and had reached the standard of a normal Tier 4 existence, but his Origin Source was too thin. When Adil had just ascended, the Origin Source that was born was ten times stronger than his.
This was just the density of the origin source. If it was displayed outside, it would be even more terrifying.
At the very least, any Fourth Order Sorcerer from the Sorcerer World could easily beat up this world's King class existences. One of them could easily beat ten King class existences.
The only exception was Gan Lai from before.
Gan Lai had truly absorbed a portion of the Sun God's power and made up for his own shortcomings. In terms of the density of his origin source, he was already not inferior to a Fourth Order Sorcerer, similar to when Adil had first advanced.
