Chapter 203: Eight Rainbow Light Devil King

Translator: Mercurial Editor: DarkGem

“Master, you only need to say it. Since our soul imprints are binded to your heavenly world, we will accomplish whatever you command,” Barbarian Niu, who was an impetuous person, said with excitement.

Li Yunmu surveyed the expressions of all his followers, and then threw out a one word. “Re-cultivate.”

“Re-cultivate? Master means we should follow in Devil’s footsteps and abolish our cultivation to condense a king crystal armor?”

Once everyone heard Li Yunmus’s suggestion, their expressions instantly changed.

“That’s right, apart from Li Qinghong, all of you are extremely weak. Although you can follow in my footsteps for a time, you’ll lose your usefulness at the most important time.”

After saying this, Li Yunmu stopped and didn’t continue.

Although all his followers were among the most powerful twenty Halted Fluxers and sounded quite formidable as well as were famous, but besides Li Qinghong, all of them had a weak foundation.

With this weak foundation, they certainly wouldn’t be able to follow Li Yunmu in the future.

Because of that, he decided that if he wanted to form a team of these seven people, he had to make them follow the path to the true peak of the world.

Li Yunmu was quite ambitious, but if he hadn’t discovered the King’s True Territory, he certainly wouldn’t have thought of this unconventional method. But since something like this did happen, then why should he not use this opportunity.

He naturally wanted for all the members of his team to build a better foundation. These people had to at least possess the potential to enter the sage layer. Otherwise, when he had to accomplish something, he wouldn’t have any reliable subordinates to assign to the ask and would have to do everything personally. If that came to be, then when would he find the time to tread the path to the pinnacle?

“However, this would require many king grade dimensional crystals…”

Even Flowing Cloud thought that Li Yunmu’s great plan was quite impossible.

Very few of those who had condensed the king crystal armor and began to cultivate with such a foundation had been successful within the whole Fifth Dimension

This was, of course, when speaking about those who had been successful in the path of cultivation and not everyone who had congealed the king crystal armor. The armor itself required only a single king crystal, but the trouble came when the person needed more of them yet there were only a limited amount of king level beasts within the Fifth Dimension.

Those who could accomplish were only those who were from the Central City itself and had a profound background.

Yet Li Yunmu had suddenly decided that all of his people must build a foundation with king crystal armor?

Even if they had discovered the King’s True Territory, it didn’t necessarily mean that they had the sufficient resources to achieve what he suggested. The resources required by seven people would be truly enormous.

“If all of you aim for twelve light rainbow king crystal armor, that naturally would be impossible, but if I reduced the requirement to say eight rainbow light king crystal armor, it would change the matter. I only ask whether you have the courage or not?” Li Yunmu said with the intention to make them decide quickly and not refuse.

“Eight rainbow lights!”

Everyone simultaneously sucked in a deep breath.

Even if he reduced the requirement to only the eight rainbow lights, the group still felt that would be extremely difficult. However, since they had discovered the King’s True Territory and were all powerful fluxers, maybe they could give it a try.

Underworld Hand clenched his teeth and took the initiative to stake it all on Li Yunmu’s choice. “We will rely on master’s decision.”

A Halted Fluxer who stood at the peak of the Fifth Dimension couldn’t just make the decision to abolish his cultivation and tumble to the lowest rung on a whim. He certainly need to deliberate carefully.

The reason why Devil had the guts to re-cultivate was because he had Azure Dragon Leg Guard and was one of the top three most powerful Halted Fluxers, which meant he had accumulated a sufficient amount of resources.

Underworld Hand and the others, however, didn’t have such resources. Yet since their master Li Yunmu had already said so much, they understood within their hearts that if they didn’t discard their cultivations and re-cultivate from the start, then his words would turn out to be true.

In the future, it would be foreordained that they wouldn’t be able to keep up with Li Yunmu. Then, once they lost their usefulness, they would lose their value as followers whose soul imprint was bound to the heavenly world, and their future prospects would diminish.

“I agree, but I want the highest amount of resources, second only to yours, master.”

Li Qinghong remained as proud as before. Even if she was Li Yunmu’s follower, within her heart, she still hadn’t accepted this transformation.

“Alright,” Li Yunmu easily agreed.

Even if she hadn’t said anything, he would have nurtured her properly. She harbored the undying sage blood, which was the supreme treasure of Chaotian Sect and was also highly compatible with her body. In the future, as long as she didn’t perish, she was bound to reach the pinnacle.

Following this, everyone made their decisions. The aim of this exploration also began to change, it was no longer to harvest earnings like before. Everyone, including Li Yunmu, began to treat this King’s True Territory as their foundation and the place where they would improve and advance their cultivation.

However, everyone couldn’t just abolish their cultivations right away, because Li Yunmu alone couldn’t ensure the safety of so many people. Furthermore, without the assistance of his seven formidable assistants, Li Yunmu didn’t dare to claim that he would be able to keep killing king dimensional beasts infinitely.

Thus, all of them formulated a rational plan to increase their cultivation in batches. The only person in the first batch was Li Yunmu.

Second batch included Li Qinghong and Lin Jian, who would be followed by Underworld Hand and his group of four, while the last one was Flowing Cloud.

The rate of passage of time in King’s True Territory was twelve times faster compared to the outside world. In other words, twelve days in King’s True Territory would be equal to only one day in the outside world.

This was the reason why the majority of fluxers and great powers viewed King’s True Territories with importance. Apart from a large amount of resources, it also slowed down the time for those within it. If someone cultivated inside it for a year, only a month would have gone past in the outside world.

All the major clans and sects considered the King’s True Territory as the most suitable region to train their outstanding disciples.

Thus, Li Yunmu and his group weren’t hasty. After putting the group of ape gods within the heavenly world, they continued on their journey to explore the King’s True Territory.

After probing with the dimensional space eyes, the area showed up to be only as large as one province of the Central Continent before the dark ages.

If Li Yunmu used his Wings of the Wind, he could easily circle the whole region a few times within a day. But since this was the King’s True Territory, he naturally didn’t dare to do so.

This region was filled with great dangers and hazards at every corner. If he was reckless and flew into the sky, he would be instantly removed from existence.

Even with his defense, he didn’t dare to attempt it.

The group continued to cautiously push through the plains when Devil Monkey suddenly stopped them again.

“You all come quickly and take a look, this is a devil king. What we were speaking about, it really appeared, how long has it been? It’s an eight rainbow light devil king. Apparently this King’s True Territory isn’t just an ordinary high-level territory, and I had greatly underestimated it.”

The appearance of a devil king implied that they shouldn’t be far from a twelve light rainbow king beast’s territory.

Devil king dimensional beasts were classified as part of the king class, but they were less formidable compared to twelve light rainbow king dimensional beasts. The important factor, though, was that the thing obtained after killing them was still a king dimensional crystal.

Li Yunmu had congealed a twelve light king grade crystal armor, so this beast wasn’t of any use to him. However, it was just perfect for Li Qinghong.
