Chapter 437: 252_1
Logan took out a thousand Spirit Stones and constructed a miniature Spirit Gathering Array, ceaselessly absorbing the spiritual energy of the Mini World. As he sat in it, a countless amount of spiritual energy gathered around him. This scene puzzled Lowen Shingo and Bart Cloud, who opened their eyes in surprise, wondering why the spiritual energy had disappeared all of a sudden.
When they turned towards Logan, they saw that all the spiritual energy was crazily pouring into him. Noticing the array next to Logan, they immediately realized that Logan was hogging all the spiritual energy for himself. The two of them became sullen in an instant, although they couldn’t bring themselves to confront Logan as the trio were allies after all.
Lowen Shingo shrugged and said, “It doesn’t matter. Despite the absence of spiritual energy, there are still the vast Heavenly and Earthly Laws. Let’s cultivate and absorb the power of the Laws. After all, spiritual energy doesn’t do much for cultivation. I’ve already set foot into the Throne Realm, where cultivation of the Laws is the main focus.”
“Fine, I will also try to comprehend the Great Law.” Bart Cloud smiled. It was obvious to him that Lowen Shingo was just putting on a brave face. Even though they had entered the Throne Realm and could grasp certain laws, without reaching the Dominator level, spiritual energy was still an indispensable part of their cultivation, and their control over the Law’s Force was minimal at best.
As soon as they sat down, they noticed that the Great Law Principles that were once contained in the surrounding space had also disappeared, absorbed into Logan’s array. This left the two men dumbfounded. Now being unable to do anything, they had no choice but to silently watch Logan cultivate alone in the ruined Mini World.
On the outside, the Beast King saw the Inner Alchemy flashing before becoming dull and lightless as though it was wasted. This left him puzzled as he wondered what had actually happened inside. Could it be that the surge of spiritual energy had dissipated so abruptly? But the spiritual energy had been accumulated over ten thousand years by his Demon Beast clan.
Not even a Sanctuary Powerhouse bathing in it or absorbing the energy for a hundred years would completely drain the spiritual energy and Laws from it. The Beast King wanted to go inside and check, but he also feared that the Inner Alchemy would be taken away in his absence. Thus, he could only wait outside, trusting that Logan and the others wouldn’t cause any chaos.
As a substantial amount of spiritual energy and Law’s Force poured, his meridians started to function strangely, and his Dantian felt like it was about to explode, unable to contain this enormous force. The intense pain was almost unbearable for Logan, yet the astounding golden light from a book inside his Dantian came to his rescue.
With the help of this book, everything seemed to smooth out at once. The absorption of spiritual energy and Law’s Force became increasingly easy, and Logan had a feeling that he would break through in a day’s time. Thus, he started to cultivate even harder, hoping that he would advance to the Throne Realm in one fell swoop.
This book was left behind by a Sanctuary Powerhouse in the previous Secret Land. As such, it was undoubtedly a Supreme Treasure. The Grand Elder had initially coveted it but didn’t expect Logan to be the eventual beneficiary. Not only did he learn many arrays and Divine Skills from it, but it also came to his aid when he needed it the most.
A day later, a terrifying aura radiated from Logan which caused him to levitate. Then, thunderclouds swarmed the Mini World’s sky. All the spiritual energy and Law Principles began to revolve spontaneously, forming a massive tornado, causing everything in the Mini World to radiate light.
Swallowing hard, Lowen Shingo yelled out in surprise, “Is he about to break through? Logan is just at the Transcendent Tier, even if he manages to break through, it shouldn’t require this much commotion. I’d seen an Elder breaking through to the Dominator level before, and even then, it didn’t invoke such a massive Thunder Tribulation. This is too strange and absolutely baffling.”
“Logan isn’t what you think he is. Make sure not to stir, or I’ll take action the moment I notice something fishy about you. Logan must not be disturbed during his breakthrough, and I won’t allow anyone to disrupt him,” replied Bart Cloud apathetically. Logan’s strength didn’t correlate with his Realm. Although Logan was at the Transcendent Tier, he was able to hold his own against a Dominator. Moreover, the multiple Divine Skills that Logan had helped him to mint himself in the Throne Realm.
His eyes were full of seriousness, although they were in the Mini World where outside interference was rare, he remained alert for any possible danger, ensuring that nobody could disrupt Logan’s breakthrough, not even Lowen Shingo.
Lowen Shingo gave out an awkward chuckle, saying, “There’s no need to show hostility towards me. Even though we haven’t known each other for long, we’ve gone through life-threatening experiences together. I definitely won’t disrupt Logan’s breakthrough. If danger arises, like you, I will certainly defend Logan even at the risk of my life.”
As Logan hung in the air, a bolt of Divine Thunder fell from the thunderclouds. Logan, however, didn’t move an inch and confronted it head-on. For a moment, the pain was so intense that it felt like he was being vaporized, but Logan managed to bear through it, his eyes filled with overbearing confidence.
Bolt after bolt of Divine Thunder failed to instill any fear in Logan. Although his body was at the brink of collapsing under the might of the Divine Thunder, like a giant standing amidst heaven and earth, he would never bow to the Thunder Tribulation, even if it bore the weight of supreme Great Law pressure.
On the outside, the Beast King was completely flabbergasted, slipping into a state of panic and confusion. Initially, he had remained calm when the Inner Alchemy turned dull and lightless. But why were there suddenly thunderclouds swirling in the Inner Alchemy, causing layers of dark clouds to appear in the sky above, and why were myriad thunderbolts pouring into the Inner Alchemy?
He had owned the Inner Alchemy for thousands of years and had never encountered such a sight before. Logan and the others had only been in the Mini World of the Inner Alchemy for a few months. What on earth had happened in there? The Beast King was incredibly curious.
The Inner Alchemy was a Supreme Treasure of the Demon Beast clan, and they couldn’t afford a single mishap. If it shattered, how would he face his ancestors? Despite being in a Saint Realm, he lost all semblance of a strong one’s dignity, silently reciting prayers and incantations to himself. This made the nearby Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast stare at him in surprise.
The Beast King looked at the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast and immediately said, “I have an idea. You go and check out what has happened inside the Mini World of the Inner Alchemy. Whatever Logan and the others are up to is beyond comprehension and it’s causing me great anxiety. In hindsight, I regret granting them the permission to cultivate inside the Inner Alchemy for a year.”
“Your wish is my command.” The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast nodded but then asked, “But how should I handle them if they turn hostile? After all, they are benefactors to our clan. Should I reprimand them or return here to report back? I’m not sure what to do.”
“If they have any untoward intentions towards the Inner Alchemy and if you’re certain about it, then they will no longer be guests of our Demon Beast Clan. Instead, it would prove that they had ill-intentions from the very start. Even if I am condemned as being ungrateful, I cannot allow anything to happen to the Inner Alchemy,” The Beast King’s eyes flashed with a killing intent as he coldly said, “if they leave us with no choice, eliminate them on the spot. As for Logan’s previous act of saving my life, I will treat it as if it never happened. However, you are forbidden to act on whims, and I will definitely use a powerful ability to deduce the truth afterward. If there’s any instance of settling personal grudges, you will bear the consequences.”
“I understand.” The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast shivered, the Beast King’s intimidating demeanor was terrifying. The sensation of falling into Hell was even more dreadful than when he was on the brink of death.
