After approximately three hours, Dylan slowly woke up from his cultivation. His clear eyes were filled with unconcealable joy.
"Qi Transformation Stage, First Layer!"
A single Crimson Spirit Fruit allowed his strength to surpass another level in such a short amount of time. Furthermore, Dylan could clearly feel that his body still had a large amount of remaining spirit energy that he had yet to absorb.
"I only absorbed half of the energy obtained from the Crimson Spirit Fruit, and it already had this effect. I wonder if I can break through again if I completely absorb it?" Dylan gently murmured and focused on refining the energy once again.
And very soon, he broke through again. This time, it only took him about an hour to break through and raise his cultivation to the Second Layer of the Qi Transformation Stage.
Dylan did not stay any longer there after that, as he got up and left the cave. The corpse of the Gale Wolf was still there. Before long, it would be eaten by other wild beasts.
.....
After that, Dylan decided not to return to the sect and spent the remaining days here. And when the time to visit another world will come, he'll directly go there.
He was really excited about visiting another world.
Just like that, the day and night soon passed.
The sun shone brightly as a gentle breeze blew past. In the depths of the lush forest, the roars of demonic beasts could be heard from time to time. It was hard to imagine that Profound Star Sect could actually be neighbors with these demonic beasts for thousands of years.
Dylan was again hunting the demonic beasts, and when the seven days of time were over, his cultivation was already raised to the level of Qi Transformation Stage Layer 6.
The further he advanced, the more difficult it became for his cultivation to increase. Even if he received 70% of the total cultivation base of a Level 3 demonic beast, his cultivation could barely increase by one small layer.
Dylan looked at his information panel.

Seeing that the time was already over but the system was not teleporting him to a different world, Dylan frowned. He could not understand why this is happening, so he asked the system.
"System, seven days have already passed. Why don't you teleport me to a different world?"
The system kept silence for some time before responding.
[The Host is currently in his original world, the world of cultivation called Heavenly Fate Continent!]
[A mission is being issued...]
Dylan was dumbstruck when he heard this.
What was this?
Why is this?
Wasn't it supposed to be the time for teleporting to a different world?
Why was the system issuing a mission at this time?
Dylan felt like shouting and cursing at the system. But he knew he could do nothing to change what was happening.
According to the system, it will only issue three missions in total for him.
One mission was already issued when he was in the World of Magic. And now, the system was issuing him the second mission.
He looked at the mission issued to him this time.
[Mission No. 2: Kill Demon Bali.
Time remaining: Six Months.
Rewards: Top Grade Enlightening Stone and an Enlightening Fruit.]
Dylan was shocked. This time, his mission was again to kill someone.
But he has no idea who this Bali is.
Wait a minute!
This Bali is actually a demon!
"Oh god, do I have to kill a Demon?" Dylan exclaimed.
Dylan has heard many legends about demons. He heard how cruel demons are, and that wherever they go, they bring nothing but destruction.
"But I don't even know this demon!"
As Dylan spoke, another stream of light flashed and a different information panel appeared in front of his eyes.
[Name: Bali
Race: Blood Demon
Cultivation base: Martial King Stage.
Background: Demonic Domain, Dark Blood Abyss, Land of Seventh Devil King.
Status: In ancient times, there was a blood-colored lake in the demonic domain, which gave birth to a large number of blood demons. A blood demon coincidentally swallowed a droplet of a Demon Monarch's blood that had boundless strength, which made him grow and evolve rapidly. He ended up devouring all the other blood demons that were in the lake in the end.
Ultimately, he devoured even the entire blood-colored lake and gave himself a name, Bali. As the bloody waves loom, they would surely sweep through the Demonic Domain.
Upon leaving his birthplace, he started to conquer the demonic lands. Through the carnage, devouring, and growing in a land filled with bloodshed, he had life-and-death battles for thousands of years before he became a Heavenly Completion Stage demon and was titled as the Seventh Devil King. He continued to grow up until he became the Seventh Devil King standing at the pinnacle of his demonic domain.
He also knew a lot of secrets.
For example, the place that he was in was just a small demonic land called the Dark Blood Abyss and that Dark Blood Abyss belonged to the Boundless Demonic Domain. There is a passage that connects the all demonic lands in the Demonic Domain together, which he secretly used to venture into the Boundless Demonic Domain.
But he later returned with severe injury in just a month's time.
He spent his following years constantly sneaking into higher and higher levels of the Demonic Lands to commit bloodshed, in search of an opportunity to break through further.
A hundred years, a thousand years, and ten thousand years had passed. After witnessing how grand and magnificent the Demonic Domain was and also watching many Devil Kings like him falling like the rain, his desire to break through started corroding his mind. Upon reaching this stage of cultivation, the next step forward will be even harder.
It seems as though his potential had been exhausted.
Just as he was about to join a Demon Emperor and look for further opportunities to improve himself, the Eleventh Devil King angered him. Just when he was about to beat the Eleventh Devil King to death, the Eleventh Devil King revealed a secret: Somewhere in the mortal world, there are hidden secrets that could allow a Devil King to improve further in cultivation and become a Devil Emperor.
He believed the news when the Eleventh Devil King swore on it. After pondering for a long time, he accumulated three demonic seeds that were infused with his own demonic spirit and used the coordinate that the Eleventh Devil King provided to barely tear a tiny opening in the world, throwing the three seeds there.
Hundreds of years ago, one of the demonic seeds had matured and grown into one of his clones. and he found clues about the world containing a certain great secret. He then collected various rare materials, forged an interdimensional gateway, and allowed a great number of demons to descend into this world.
Just when it looked like he was about to completely take over the mortal world, another gateway opened up in the sky and an Immortal descended. It was a huge battle that even caused the sun to fall, the sea to run dry, and destroyed more than half of humanity.
The land was shattered and a huge part of it submerged into the deep sea. In the end, he was defeated and the Demonic clone was killed. The incident strengthened the Devil King's idea of seizing opportunity in this world. After all, it was much safer than the bloodshed in the higher-level world.
When the second demonic seed matured, formed a clone, and opened up another dimensional gateway, he depleted hundreds of years of accumulated resources to demonize the mortal world, regardless of the cost. He was determined to succeed this time.
Unfortunately, he still fell short in the end, as a Human King rose to power and defeated his demonic clone, killing it in the end along with many demons.
Finally, another thousand years later, the last demonic seed matured and transformed into his demonic clone.
Devil King Bali is determined to blaze this entire world this time before finding the treasure that could help him break the limit of Devil King and become a Devil Emperor before ascending to a higher-leveled Demonic Domain.
However, since he has just transformed into a clone from a demonic seed, his strength is only at the Martial King Stage.
Devil King Bali is extremely careful this time. He is planning to first raise the strength of his clone to the limit of this world before putting his plan into the act.]
When Dylan read the Details about this Demon Bali, he was shocked.
No, saying he was frightened is the right word.
He was so frightened that he could not speak for some time. His face paled and he staggered on his steps.
Dylan was shocked, not only because his mission was to kill the Demon King Bali, but it is also because of the "status" he read about Bali.It turned out Bali is actually a Devil King.Although Dylan has no idea what level of strength one should have to be able to obtain the title of a "King".According to the status, there once appeared a Human King in this world that destroyed Devil King Bali's plan.From this, it could be seen that the "King" title is only given to those who have a certain level of strength, and it is not about the King of a country or a kingdom!No... Wait a moment.The status clearly said that upon reaching the Heavenly Completion Stage, Bali was given the title of Devil King. It means a Heavenly Completion Stage martial warrior or demon could obtain the title of "King".But Heavenly Completion Stage is the last stage of cultivation as far as Dylan knows.The cultivation stages are like this: Body Tempering Stage, Bone Refinement Stage, Qi Transformation Stage,
Dylan was surprised when he heard Henry's words. His gaze also subconsciously fell on Henry's eyes as he observed them for the first time.Only now did he notice that there seemed to be a strange red pattern in Henry's pair of black pupils. Those eyes were really special.Dylan wanted to ask something about his eyes, but he did not ask. Asking anything about Henry's eyes would be crossing the limit since both of them were still just strangers.But, Dylan no longer hesitated. He agreed and spoke: "Ok, I'll go to the Red Leaf Country with you!""Hahaha, very good!" Henry laughed and suddenly disappeared. The next moment, he appeared beside Dylan and patted his shoulder, startling Dylan. But Henry ignored this and spoke: "I promise, you will definitely not regret it.""How long will it take you to say goodbye to your family and friends? I'll wait for you here!"Dylan sighed. He suddenly remembered about his father who disappeared for no reason three years ago.Then he shook his head and
Henry nodded." It seems that you have figured out the crux of the problem. As you said, the most dangerous thing in the wilderness is a person. So, in the Wilderness, the first safety principle is not to trust anyone easily. Even if your best friend is the one who entered the Wilderness with you, or even even a family member, they could be the ones to kill you.""Such a thing is happening every day in the Wilderness. I've been to the Wilderness a few times, and I've encountered many similar situations. Some people are really willing to do anything for the sake of benefits."If it was Dylan in the past, perhaps he wouldn't understand this situation. However, after his father's disappearance and experiencing the pain of being bullied by his once friends, at the same time, what he had done to Lucas in the forest, Dylan finally realized that he should stay cautious around everyone and not trust others easily."Perhaps, you don't need to trust even me too much." Henry suddenly said.Dylan
The two of them continued forward. Along the way, they encountered many Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 Demonic Beasts. These Demonic Beast were naturally all used by Dylan to practice. Such a dense battle made Dylan have no choice but to deal with all sorts of situations. His strength had obviously improved. Henry taught him a Sword Technique along the way, and for some reason, Dylan comprehended the Sword Intent in the next two days. All it took him was only two days to comprehend the Sword Intent that shocked Henry. Anyway, another few days of battle caused Dylan's sword technique to become even purer and sharp. His sword technique had completely surpassed the perfect level. "Bang!" With a low sound, a demonic beast fell to the ground and died under Dylan's sword. "This is the twentieth demonic beast I killed today. Such a battle is really satisfying. No wonder martial warriors like to enter the Wilderness to temper themselves. No matter how dangerous this place is, this place s
"Come!"Dylan shouted and stomped hard on the ground. He charged towards the Level 4 Blade-toothed Wolf. The Level 4 Demonic Beast had some intelligence. It could feel Dylan's fighting spirit. It let out a thunderous roar toward Dylan and charged at him with incredible speed. Its four hooves were strong and strong, and the fiery red fur on its body was very tough.The Blade-toothed Wolf's speed was too fast. Its two sharp fangs were like blades as it stabbed toward Dylan. As long as he was stabbed by this blade tooth, he would definitely die on the spot.Facing the incomparably ferocious Blade-toothed Wolf, Dylan's nerves couldn't help but tense up. His pupils dilated slightly as he stared fixedly at the Blade-toothed Wolf. All the energy in his body was mobilized. He tried his best to dodge the attack of the Blade-toothed Wolf.Dylan did not dare to get too close to it. Otherwise, he might be injured by this demonic beast. But if he didn't get close to it, Dylan's sword also wouldn't
"This is a Level 4 Weapon!" Dylan was slightly stunned.Henry said, "A good weapon will help you get better, especially when it comes to dealing with the Demonic Beasts. However, I feel that your sword is a little special.""Special?" Dylan frowned slightly. In fact, he also felt that it was a little special. Because during the last battle, he clearly felt a strange force surge out from his sword.However, this sword was given to him by his father on his birthday. As far as he had observed, this sword was just an ordinary sword.But hearing what Henry said, he carefully studied it but couldn't find anything special about it.This sword had followed him for so many years, it was only the time when he was fighting the demonic beast that it felt a bit strange."Maybe, but I don't know either. This sword was given to me by my father. I'll accept your sword first. I'll return the favor that I owe you in the future." Dylan said.Henry smiled. "I was just joking with you. Don't take it serio
When Marcus heard Dylan's voice, he stopped and looked coldly at Dylan. Even Henry looked at Dylan with some doubt. The matter had already been resolved. What was he trying to do?"What?" Marcus coldly asked Dylan."You want to kill me just because I'm weaker than you and retorted you, right?" Dylan asked."So you know that!" Marcus sneered and spoke."After two months, I will use my strength to prove to you how foolish your actions of today are." Dylan still had a calm expression on his face as he spoke. His intention was clear. He declared that he will fight Marcus two months later and show him how foolish he was to bully him today!Henry was stunned for a moment, then he immediately felt relieved. He even felt like admiring Dylan now.If it was him, he would probably swallow his anger and admit defeat. However, Dylan was so confident that he could say it out loud.Did he want to defeat Marcus in just two months?This sounded like something impossible.Anyone who heard it would thin
Dylan and Henry landed on the ground and observed their surroundings. To their surprise, they saw that the ground was filled with green rocks that were actually emitting hot energy, causing the temperature below to be extremely high.Waves of heatwaves crashed into their face, as if it was going to burn them down. If one looked closely at these green rocks, one would even feel as if there was something terrifying liquid-like substance flowing underneath.The two of them were not in an open space, but this place seemed more like a long tunnel.They had no idea where the long and winding tunnel led to. There were many strange and strong rocks in the surroundings. Under the illumination of the green light, everything seemed especially strange.Even Henry frowned when he saw such a place. Clearly, he had never seen such a scene before."Dylan, follow me closely. I feel that this place is very dangerous." Henry said with a serious expression.Dylan nodded in agreement. Even without Henry's
