Time flew quickly. The Purgatory Star resumed its calmness. Experts all left. The Extreme Purgatory Field was sealed. This land returned to be a quiet place.
Ninety-four out of ninety-nine prohibited areas had disappeared. The five forbidden lands with magical effects still existed. Leylin stayed in the deepest place of the valley, inching through layers of barriers with A. I. Chips efforts.
That grand palace hid in the deepest place of the forbidden land under the shade of a tall mountain. Thick clouds concealed it. No one could see anything through that layer of clouds
Through the help of A. I. Chip’s excellent deciphering ability, after six months of grinding Leylin was able to solve the subtle mysteries of the barriers.
He didn’t only solved them but also studied them rigorously, publishing his formation master’s skills.
There were forty-nine layers of barrier covering the palace. At this point in time, he had broken forty layers.
Each layer was a magnificent formation, which hid the great mysteries of earth and heaven. Each layer of barrier consisted of many smaller formations.
After deciphering each layer, his understanding of blacksmithing was enhanced. The formations that built the barriers all hid the magical truth of Nature. During this time, his realm was also refined and strengthened.
Today, he had broken through the forty-second layer out of forty-nine layers. Leylin suddenly felt a marvelous commotion from inside the palace.
At the same time, the other four Third Sky of King God Realm warriors in the other four forbidden areas of the Extreme Purgatory Field, who were doing the same thing with him, all witnessed a strange occurrence. They were all shaken.
“It seems the five forbidden lands are connecting… Ghost Hunters, Khepri, Holy Spirit God all you enter the Blood Vein ring for now. It won’t be productive to have them wary against us, I have a feeling only the five of us working together can break this formation and seer into its secret.” Leylin felt the disturbance and guessed what was most likely to happen, he ordered all of his unique beastly lifeforms to go into stealth.
“Yes Master.”
It was not only Leylin who benefited from here, all of them have also been cultivating religiously inside such an amazing environment. On top of the Extreme Purgatory Field’s natural ability to hasten their understanding and comprehension, Leylin would also refine pills for them.
After killing so many people, Leylin has an abundant amount of refining materials, precious herbs and heaven and earth treasure. Using his immortal demon bloodline as the main centre ingredients, and accompanied by his Divine level alchemy skills he refined many wonderful pills for them.
All of them have experienced a significant leap in their ability, each one bordering the peak of their minor realms waiting for a good opportunity to breakthrough their bottleneck.
Ghost Hunter is already at peak middle stage of Level 10, King of Demonic insects Khepri is at peak early stage of Level 10. Holy Spirit God already has a refined God body of Third Sky of King God Realm thanks to Leylin’s refining skils, and only needs to cultivate his soul. So far with the help of Leylin’s top quality pills and amazing cultivating resonance field of Purgatory Star, he’s at peak Second Sky of King God realm.
…..
The prohibited area, sealed Extreme Purgatory Field, Purgatory Star.
Leylin was observing the rippling water-like barriers, as a magical energy fluctuation sent out from a deep place inside that palace.
Just like the change of seasons, the palace seemed to continue operating now. Strange and grumbling explosions echoed from the ground under the forbidden land where he was suspended in the air.
The same changes also happened in the other forbidden areas. Four Third Sky of King God Realm warriors were also solving the barriers like Leylin.
They lifted their heads looking at the palace and feeling the energy waves sending out from inside.
The five forbidden areas in the Extreme Purgatory Field slowly moved and adjoined with each other in a way no one could ever imagine or have a chance to witness.
Although they looked slow, they were actually moving very fast. Within fifteen minutes, the five forbidden areas situated in five different regions of the Extreme Purgatory Field had magically fused into one intact piece.
Even the five wonderful palaces appeared as one place under some mysterious force.
Immediately, Leylin saw all five palaces.
The five palaces looked like five radiantly dazzling massive pieces of a jewel. With the support of the towering stone pillar, they moved up to the sky over their heads.
The five grand palaces arrayed a pentagon in the air. The other four warriors were staying near their palaces had a look of astonishment.
The other four didn’t have Leylin’s progress. After so many years, they had only broken through twenty-three layers. Leylin’s talent and ability were simply godly compared to them.
“Ah!”
The surprised voices of the four arose from four different corners. They all gazed at Leylin.
The four of them were at the Third Sky of King God Realm: three males, and one female. The three male warriors were all the old man with disheveled hair and dirty clothes. They looked like they hadn’t cleaned their bodies for years. All of them looked helter-skelter, their eyes hiding brutal and malevolent intentions.
The only woman looked in her thirties. She was beautiful, wearing a snakeskin-like leather robe at knee-length, revealing her jade-like calves.
That woman wasn’t human. She belonged to the Ghost Mark Clan. Delicate cyan tattoos were shown on her exposed white skin arms and legs which gave her a perfectly beautiful look, charming but also evil.
When the other four were watching him, Leylin also observed them. Not long afterward, he lost interest in them.
Leylin at his current realm isn’t even afraid of going up against brutal and well renowned figures like Leona, Alavid and even the King of Divine Firnament Dark Nation Caligula Arman.
For him only characters at Original God realm are worth noting, everyone else is just an ant. Only his three strange creatures are enough to deal with them, without him having to bat an eye.
“Kid, who are you?” An old man as thin as a bamboo stick that looked like a skeleton with human skin cover asked.
His eyes sparkled with gloomy light. “Seems like you took down that fool Jeremy. Your target must be same as us and you came quite prepared. You are much faster than us. What did you do to combine all the forbidden places into one piece?”
The other three observed him, their eyes hiding their ferocious thoughts.
“Just do your part, we don’t need to know about each other.” Leylin spoke indifferently and continued his work.
“What an arrogant guy!?”
“Fatima, what do you think?” The man who talked to Leylin was angered but he didn’t say anything instead he turned to look at the woman who had strange and exquisite drawings on her body. The other two old men also looked at the Ghost Mark Clan woman named Fatima. It seemed like she was their leader.
“Who cares if he’s arrogant.” Fatima cracked a strange smile. Light sparkled from her eyes. “We four have spent a lot of time just to break around twenty layers. Jeremy was the worst. He’s gone and a good boy who could surpass us is here. Aren’t we lucky?”
Then, the other three acted oddly. Those old men didn’t look like good people. They burst out laughing bizarrely as if they all agreed with her.
“We’ve been patient for a long time just to find what was inside the palaces. This kid accelerated our progress. It is all good for us.” Fatima smiled. “Didn’t you see that the barriers… are loosening a bit?”
“Of course, we did,” the three old men cracked strange smiles.
‘They aren’t like that old man, they know exactly what’s inside there.’
These four seemed to be different from that old man, he wanted to go outside to get revenge but these people were hell bent on breaking the barriers. Judging from their hundreds of years of bitter relentless grinding, it must be a good secret.
They must have come to the Extreme Purgatory Field on their own, with the sole aim to seek these forbidden areas.
Leylin didn’t talk with them much, but he got to know that Fatima the only women among them came from the Land of God Punishment, the most chaotic place of the entire Raging Flame Star Area. Her status wasn’t ordinary.
The skeleton-like old man was called Ganji was a warrior of the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce. The other two were named Puneet and Hakim. They were from the Underworld League. None of them came from the Dark Firmament Divine Nation which was odd since the inheritance was established by imperial masters of Dark Firmament Divine Nation.
Time passed, no one cared about each other and kept working. Leylin intentionally slowed down his speed because all of his subordinates wanted to breakthrough. They already had good accumulation and understanding of realm so it was fairly easy, Leylin lended them a small hand making their breakthrough slightly more serene.
Days passed and everyone else caught up a bit. Now, there was only one barrier in front of Leylin.
At this moment, Fatima said, “We can take a rest.”
Leylin stayed in the water-like barrier, he floated in so many ripples, his face calm.
“Wait until they reach the last layer, we will join hands and tear the barrier at the same time to enter the palace.” Fatima looked at Leylin. “Some of the layers in our places still remain. If you break it now, something will change accordingly in our places. At that time, perhaps we can’t open the five palaces at the same time, and we won’t receive anything from it.”
Ganji, Puneet and Hakim nodded. Leylin also stayed quiet and tactfully agreed.
Time flew fast. A long time had passed.
Today, Fatima was the first one who had reached the final layer. She exhaled and glanced at Leylin, who was meditating. She didn’t say anything but took out the divine crystals to restore her power.
A long time afterward.
The other three also reached the final layer. Their faces brightened up as they were very excited.
Just like Leylin and Fatima, the other three didn’t hasten to break the final layer. They quietly used the divine crystals to recover their powers to the peak.
Suddenly, a wisp of Soul Consciousness that was hard to detect sneaked through the broken layers to Leylin from Fatima’s. The eccentric Ghost Mark Clan woman stooped and opened her eyes to look at him.
At this moment, Ganji, Puneet and Hakim were still restoring their power. They seemed not to recognise her move.
“You shouldn’t reply with Soul Consciousness. Your realm’s low. If you release your soul energy, they can sense you immediately.” Fatima thought reached him. “You just need to listen to me.”
“At the moment the barriers shatter altogether when we enter the palace, we will have an unavoidable battle. Since your realm’s the lowest, I don’t know how you got in there, but when we engage in a battle, you will inevitably die first.”
“I have a suggestion. Once we get in there, the other three will launch attacks immediately. We will join hands. You’ll help me to hold Hakim back for a while. You don’t need to join the battle. Just stay outside. You shouldn’t hurry because of the things in the palace. You don’t need to bother with Ganji and Puneet. If I win something, I won’t forget your part. If you agree, you should give me a slight nod.”
‘Oh… I never thought I’ll meet such a scheming women here. There are so few people who use their head, it makes me wanna play a bit with you.’
Unexpectedly, a wisp of Soul Consciousness from Leylin sneaked through the broken layers to Fatima. The eccentric Ghost Mark Clan woman was shocked and her eyes looked at him seriously.
“Sure!”
Afterwards, neither of them talked. Leylin stopped, placing his hands on the ultimate layer of the barrier. The other four also worked on their last barrier.
Leylin extended his hands, touching the barrier which had a wooden texture. Those magical wood textures connected each other. They were green-brown that looked more like a thick forest. An aura of floras diffused from this barrier.
Countless wooden pieces fused with each other, creating a sea of lush plants. The Essence Qi of Wood permeated everywhere thickly and vigorously.
At the same time, the other four placed their hands on the barrier.
From Fatima direction, gold light emitted while red flame, white steam, and yellow Earth Qi gushed out from Ganji, Puneet and Hakim’s areas respectively.
Five Elements forces!
In one glance, Let understood that this ultimate layer hid the mysteries of Five Elements. They seemed to connect with each other, too.
The barriers of Five Elements – Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth – could always fuse with each other magically. These last barriers interlinked between the palaces. They kept the subtle powers of balanced Five Elements.
Leylin observed the wood texture for a while, he could feel the magical vitality of the wood texture.
‘I need to get rid of this… I think it’s better to just absorb it.’
Leylin’s soul altar moved and Dead Upanishad was activated.
Under the effects of the Death God Domain, this Wood energy was absorbed gradually.
This last barrier of Wood power was dissolved easily under his special power Upanishad. At this speed, this last barrier would soon vanish.
However, Fatima’s group of four found themselves struggling. While they were breaking the barriers, their faces were grim. Sweat beaded their foreheads. They were focusing wholeheartedly not daring to be distracted.
The power in their God Bodies was draining fast. To Leylin solving the barrier was almost effortless, but it was troublesome for them.
They were urging their energy madly. Light sparkled from time to time from their bodies as they poured energy into the barriers. They closed their eyes to sense the leaks of the barriers which they would fill with their energy.
Those people didn’t cultivate any power of the Five Elements but they persisted with their respective God domain.
Shortly, Fatima’s group had worn out the energy of the final barriers and broken them.
Crack Crack!
Clear echoes arose from the other four’s areas. Light dots of four colors scattered.
Four shadows dashed like meteors under beams of red light. They stormed towards the five palaces.
Ganji was the fastest. He just swayed and appeared in a palace. Puneet and Hakim followed him closely. Fatima, the one people feared a lot came last. While the other three dashed into the palace, Fatima paused, glaring at Leylin who didn’t rush inside despite being the first one to have the chance.
Leylin immediately tore off the last barrier. He didn’t hasten to leave or bother fighting Ganji, Puneet and Hakim, which was taking place in the palace, just looking at Fatima from a distance.
Fatima nodded to him. She said nothing afterward. Her figure faded immediately. In the next moment, she appeared near Ganji, Puneet and Hakim. As soon as she appeared, she instantly attacked Ganji.
The God Domain of these four emerged in one palace. At this moment, Leylin finally knew which powers Upanishad each of them cultivated.
Ganji’s power was Gravity. In his affected area, blocks of stone that built up the palace were shaken as if they were about to collapse.
In his Divine Gravitational Field, the gravity was increased several hundred times. Besides him, no one could be free of this special effect.
Puneet’s power Upanishad could make his body stretch or contract at will. When he performed his God Domain, his fingers could extend or shorten easily like a monster. His bones would be like the spiral spring that could be lengthened ten times.
This was one of the rarest power Upanishad that Leylin had ever seen.
Hakim’s power Upanishad was Soul Dragging. Inside his God Domain, shadows of ghosts and demons moved back and forth. He could control them all. Anyone entering his God Domain would have his soul bound and be unable to control his body.
The God Domains of Ganji, Puneet and Hakim were somehow odd. However, the oddest was Fatima’s domain.
Her power Upanishad was sound!
When her God Domain was created, countless sadly grating and shrill voices reverberated. She shouted and her Essence Qi was poured into her God Domain, creating more sharp noises that sounded like brutal blades.
Fatima had used a strange sound technique to subdue the other three.
She shrilled. The ear-piercing voice and her energy became invisible spears crossing the space, aiming at Ganji, Puneet and Hakim.
Only Hakim’s peculiar power Upanishad could trouble her. Since he could use the magical power of Soul Upanishad, he could make countless ghosts and evils come forth to create shields from the sharp sound spears. He didn’t struggle much.
Sound has no weight. That’s why Ganji’s gravity power couldn’t affect it. Those sound spears then wrecked havoc in his God Domain. Ganji felt that his hands were tied so he couldn’t do anything.
Puneet didn’t have any solution. Even if he could make his hands longer, when the sound attacked him, he had to shrink his limbs instantly, resizing his God Body ten times smaller.
“Hey you!”
All of a sudden, Fatima shouted while fighting one-on-three.
Leylin got out of the barrier leisurely and walked to the palace with his hands behind his back. He seemed like someone who had nothing to do with them.
“Go take care of them. Ghost Hunter deal with Fatima she is the strongest, Holy Spirit God take care of Ganji and Puneet. Khepri fight against Hakim, Yin Spirit Ghost Flame you go to help Khepri deal with him. With your assistance Hakim’s God realm would lose its ability.” Leylin commanded and kept flying forward not caring about anyone.
Ghost Hunter, Holy Spirit God and Khepri all erupted with their full powers catching everyone off guard. Leylin was nonchalant as he moved deep inside the palace.
While his subordinates dealt with them he quickly advanced towards an area inside the palace.
Inside there was a fragment that looked like a turtle shell was shielded by a magical formation placed in that area.
