"Since you are cultivating this Ghost-faced Devil Bug, there must be a specific purpose behind it. What is it that you want?" Ling Feng said in a deep voice.

Carly slowly replied, "The laboratory's goal is to suppress the development of the Ghost-faced Devil Bug so that the mature bugs can remain inside these hosts and still provide them with immense power!"

"In this way, we can mass-produce experts of the Azure Sky Realm," Carly said.

Ling Feng inhaled sharply. These experimenters are truly insane, or rather, the Mad Doctor is truly insane!

Experts of the Azure Sky Realm, each one of them is a prodigy, each one has spent thousands of years cultivating and accumulating, only to seize that sliver of heavenly fortune to break through to the Azure Sky Realm.

How many young talents at the Divine Sea Realm Peak spend their whole lives unable to touch the threshold of the Azure Sky Realm?

But the Mad Doctor actually wants to use the Ghost-faced Devil Bug to mass-produce Azure Sky Realm experts. Just this idea alone is enough to drop everyone's jaws. Furthermore, based on Ling Feng's understanding of the Mad Doctor, his proposal is definitely not without reason!

"How far has the experiment proceeded? Can the growth of the Ghost-faced Devil Bug be suppressed?" Ling Feng asked. If it can be suppressed, then Ling Yun can be saved!

When Ling Feng saw the confusion in Ling Yun's eyes, it was as if he saw himself in the past, the kind of confusion and loss after avenging a great enemy. Therefore, Ling Feng wanted to save him.

"There have been successful cases in the laboratory!" Carly hesitated for a moment, then said, "It is precisely because of this that the Ghost-faced Devil Bugs hidden inside the experimental bodies feel fear and lead to the host's loss of control!"

Ling Feng's eyes lit up: "There have been successful cases? Does that mean Ling Yun can be saved?"

Carly nodded and said, "If you truly wish to save Ling Yun, there's only one way—return to the laboratory and retrieve the sole Experimental Potion from the safe!"

"Return to the laboratory?" Ling Feng muttered to himself.

Carly nodded, "Indeed, that's the only way. Moreover, I think other experimental subjects also want that potion, so... Master, we have to compete with hundreds of experimental subjects for that potion!"

"No matter!" Ling Feng said calmly, "As long as there's hope, we will certainly achieve the final victory."

After pausing for a moment, Ling Feng stared at Carly and said, "I have one more thing to ask you. Aren't you going to tell me the method to break the formation on this island?"

Carly's expression became somewhat unnatural: "Master, I don't understand what you mean?"

"Earlier on that expanse of desert, I heard what that middle-aged man said—isn't breaking the formation on this island require killing all your experiment personnel?" Ling Feng asked solemnly.

Carly remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Master, if I say that's true, would you kill me?"

Ling Feng took a breath and gave Carly a deep look: "I, Ling Feng, am not so heartless as to go to such lengths. I just don't want to be deceived! Don't worry, I won't kill you. I said I would protect you, so I will surely keep you safe."

Carly looked at Ling Feng in surprise, and seeing the determination in his eyes, she couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart: "Master... actually... there is a switch to control the formation inside the laboratory."

"What?" Ling Feng was shocked: "Are you serious? You aren't lying to me?"

Carly nodded: "How could I possibly lie to you at this time? But the switch for this formation is on the lowest level of the laboratory, heavily guarded by mechanisms. My access is not sufficient to enter the lowest level!"

Ling Feng said indifferently, "What is there to worry about? Just fight our way down. Tomorrow, I will go to the laboratory with Ling Yun; you wait here for us. Do not move around unnecessarily!"

"Master, I want to go with you!" Carly said, "Besides, without me, you won't find the potion or the formation switch!"

Ling Feng looked at Carly and then smiled after a moment: "Alright, we'll go together!"

When Ling Feng told Ling Yun about Carly's words, Ling Yun's face showed surprise and panic, finally settling on determination.

He really didn't expect to have such a thing as the Ghost-faced Devil Bug inside him, and that his strength had already reached the late Divine Sea Realm. This meant the Ghost-faced Devil Bug was about to mature. If his big brother hadn't told him, it wouldn't be long before he would be devoured by the Ghost-faced Devil Bug!

"Get ready; we're returning to the laboratory!" Ling Feng said solemnly, "We must secure the Ghost-faced Devil Bug before everyone else! Ling Yun, amongst you, is there anyone particularly worth noting?"

"The top ten are all at the late Divine Sea Realm in cultivation!" Ling Yun said, "Moreover, besides us experimental subjects, there are many other monster beasts. To take the potion from them will not be an easy task!"

"No matter how difficult, we must press forward!" Ling Feng said solemnly, "We have no other choice! Ling Yun, trust yourself, trust me; we will not fail!"

Ling Yun took a deep breath: "Big brother, I understand!"

That night, as the night fell, the figures of Ling Feng and his companions appeared once more around the laboratory. After careful reconnaissance, they found no signs of danger.

"Let's go; we'll enter the laboratory!" Ling Feng whispered.

Infiltrating the laboratory, a series of oddly shaped corpses came into view. Ling Yun frowned and said, "Big brother, these are all like me, experimental subjects. But why did they die here?"

Ling Feng shook his head: "This matter reeks of strangeness. Did they perhaps turn on each other?"

This hypothesis was a bit far-fetched, but irrespective of the reason, the team followed Carly's guidance towards the Potion Room.

With a creak, as they reached the door of the Potion Room, it suddenly opened, and the surrounding lights came on.

"Number Three, thanks to you, you've really led them here!" A mocking voice came from inside the Potion Room.

Ling Yun's expression changed drastically: "Big brother, this matter, I..."

Ling Feng waved his hand: "No matter, but since they are aware of us, let's meet this individual then!"

As they pushed the door open, Ling Feng saw a man with long purple hair lying on a bench inside the Potion Room. He looked at Ling Feng and Ling Yun with a mocking gaze: "Number Three, what are you waiting for? Have you forgotten our agreement?"
