Shun Long and Little Black stood more than 1 mile apart from each other, as 2 small vortexes, one small and one large appeared on the surface of the lake.
There was respect as well as jealousy on the half village chief's face as he watched Shun Long absorb the lake water.
Shun Long could feel his body getting stronger, as he devoured the lake water like a hungry beast.
this situation continued for 3 days, as the vortex around Shun Long was now twice the size of the measurement.
Finally, Shun Long felt as if the energy within his body had reached the limit of the second stage of the 'Abadi King', when a Body voice suddenly sounded from his body.
As this voice rang out, Shun Long felt his strength increase at an incredible speed.
'Peak of the second stage in body refinement'
After reaching the peak of the second stage in the 'Eternal Body King', the vortex around Shun Long was once again doubled in size, as he began to absorb more lake water.
10 Days had passed since little Shun Long and Black walked into the lake, when the air vortex around the little Black finally exceeded a mile.
Shun Long opened his eyes as he glanced at the black dragon who was unaware of what he was causing.
At the edge of the lake, out of the 20 half-demon villagers gathered, as they observed the little Black with shining eyes.
days later, a huge pillar shot up into the air, before the huge vortex around him disappeared.
ROARS
Little Black let out a roar of satisfaction, as he had now reached the peak of rank 4.
Shun Long smiled as he saw this, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
'The 'Heaven swallowed wine' from the 'Time Stone', putting it on the lake while sending mental commands to absorb the lake water.
What surprised Shun Long was, even though the vine was unable to turn air into pure qi, because it was not some kind of qi at first, the vine itself had grown taller after absorbing the lake water.
Half a month more passed like this, and now it had already been 25 days Shun Long had entered into 'the Vermilion realm'.
Opening his eyes, he was unsure whether he should be happy or frustrated.
Although the energy within his body was sufficient to reach the third stage in body refinement, he was still unable to do so because he had yet to comprehend the Dao of Space.
Shun Long could sense that he was only a step away, but this move still needed inspiration.
He was confident that if he could replicate that feeling, ever since he opened the last chamber that sucked the eyes of the 'nine-eyed giant worm', then he could definitely open the third stage of 'The Eternal Body of the King'. .
Turning his eyes to 'Heaven swallowed wine', Shun Long was surprised to see that it had grown over 40m (130 feet) in length.
The village chief approached him while and said
''Tuavey tvayve eatelave''
the other villagers were then residents as they repeated the words of their village chief.
Shun Long leaked out the little Black who laughed while translating the words of the half-demon
''Sir, said the village chief
'Thank you mighty warrior for taking care of that demon monster. Our tribal warehouse is open for mighty warriors to take as much iron as he wants.'''
Shun Long smiled as he looked at the little Black and said
'' their hearts really want to send us away. All right, ask one of their villagers to drive us to their warehouse. The rest can stay here and cultivate because that's what they obviously want. The lake water is of no use to us anymore.''
Shun Long had tested whether the lake water was effective for other medicinal herbs as it could help the growth of 'Heaven swallowed wine', but without any effect.
The village chief was overjoyed when he heard this, and gave orders to a young half-demon warrior who was reluctant to escort Shun Long and the little Black back to their village.
Before they left, the village chief also handed the brown-colored beast skin to Shun Long.
Stretching out the animal skin that Shun Long saw, that the images inside had a map layout.
With the 'map' in hand, Shun Long knew which path to take, to head to the central region where the 'King Palace' was located.
-
Half an hour later, the half-demon warrior had returned with Shun Long and the little Black returning to the half-demon village, before he entered through the secret passage to arrive in front of the large warehouse.
After opening the gate of the warehouse, Shun Long saw the pile of iron stored inside.
In just a few minutes, Shun Long had taken out half of the iron sheds, and yet, the facial expression of the half-demon warrior still showed indifference.
''It looks like the mine has more iron than I anticipated before.''
Then, turning to look at the little Black, Shun Long spread out the beast skin the village chief had given him as he said
'' Since there is nothing else we can do in this place, it is time to leave. According to this map, it looks like we are at the northern end of the secret realm. There was still a little over 2 months until the 'world of Vermilion' closed.''
Sitting on the back of the black dragon, Shun Long then looked forward as he said
''Let's go to the palace in the middle region!''
