Chapter 469: Chapter 469 – Level Four

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The surrounding light was very bright. The basement looked quite spacious, and the furnishings around were all pretty good. Of course, from Chen Heng’s perspective, the basement setup was quite simple and crude.

Not only did he not have all the high-precision instruments that he needed, but the basic equipment was also unavailable. But even so, under the current conditions, he could only go along with it. There was no other way.

As he walked in, he felt a burning sensation. Although he could not feel it in the outside world, he could easily sense the temperature inside when he really walked in. It was an exceptionally hot feeling.

The temperature around him was very high. If a normal person walked in, they would not be able to stay for long. If a piece of meat was placed here, it wouldn’t take long to get roasted.

One could see the heat within. The source of the heat originated from the center of the basement. There was a stone laboratory table with a huge container on it. Inside the container, a huge golden crystal was placed there. It looked exceptionally resplendent.

This crystal looked like a giant egg, but its entire body was in the shape of a golden crystal. It looked more like a giant gemstone than an egg. Chen Heng could sense a vigorous life force coming from this golden crystal, spreading out in all directions.

At this moment, the temperature in the entire basement was only a tiny fraction of the heat from the golden crystal. If one were really close to the golden crystal, one would be able to feel the terrifying temperature within. That was a terrifying temperature that was enough to turn a person into charcoal or even evaporate directly.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Chen Heng had specially set up a spell formation to take care of it, just this huge golden egg alone would have been enough to cause a huge amount of damage.

Chen Heng took a step forward and walked in.

“It seems that your transformation isn’t too bad.”

Walking into the laboratory center, Chen Heng looked at the golden egg in front of him and felt the vigorous energy coming from it. Chen Heng smiled and said.

As if sensing Chen Heng’s existence, faint spiritual waves appeared on the golden egg in front of him. It seemed to be filled with joy and nostalgia. It seemed to be very happy that Chen Heng had arrived from its looks.

“I know, I know.”

As if sensing the will coming from the giant egg, Chen Heng casually smiled and continued, “Some time ago, I happened to have some urgent matters, so I left for a while and didn’t come to see you.

“But fortunately, during this period, you didn’t encounter any danger.”

He spoke softly with faint spiritual energy in his voice, calming the emotions of the giant egg in front of him. As Chen Heng’s voice continued to fall, the spiritual waves coming from the giant egg also gradually calmed down.

Then, in this place in front of them, the two existences continued to chat. Of course, Chen Heng was talking most of the time, and the other party was listening. After all, up until now, the other party had not developed the ability to speak.

But that did not matter. One could understand the other party’s message through the spiritual waves.

They chatted here for a long time until a sense of fatigue came from the giant egg before Chen Heng stopped and let the giant egg continue to sleep.

“It looks like I’m not far away from another transformation.”

Standing on the spot, Chen Heng looked at the giant golden egg that was gradually sinking into silence. The giant golden egg in front of him was none other than Chen Heng’s Imperial Beast, Red.

The Red was formerly only an ordinary Dragon Bird. Although it was above average among Imperial Beasts, he was still a long way from those top-tier Imperial Beasts.

To make up for this, Chen Heng used all kinds of methods. He used his own power to collect the unique bloodlines of this world and injected them into Red’s body with the Heaven-Devouring scripture, allowing him to transform slowly.

This method wasn’t difficult for Chen Heng. He had done it many times before. It was also very suitable for Red. In just a few months, Red’s bloodline had undergone many transformations, and he had become even stronger.

Red was undergoing a new transformation. Once this transformation was completed, Red’s bloodline would probably become top-tier. Even when compared to the top-tier Imperial Beasts in this world, it wouldn’t be much inferior.

And from the current situation, the transformation seemed to be going smoothly. Everything was proceeding according to plan. For Chen Heng, this was a pretty good situation.

“The effects on the Imperial Beasts and the Beastmasters are mutual…”

While Chen Heng dealt with the things in his hands, he had the following thoughts: “Red is still a few steps away from completing his transformation.

“Once I complete my advancement to Level Four, Red’s transformation shouldn’t have any problems left.”

The growth of an Imperial Beast would lead to increments of a Beastmaster’s strength. On the contrary, the growth and breakthrough of a Beastmaster would also bring about the growth of an Imperial Beast.

Therefore, Chen Heng’s advancement to Level Four this time was not only a huge boost for himself but also his Imperial Beast. With his help, Red’s transformation shouldn’t be much of a problem this time.

After this transformation was over, Chen Heng believed that Red would be able to provide much more help to him. A moment later, he turned around and walked to the other side. After that, he arrived at the place that he had long prepared.

It was a specially made room. It wasn’t too far from Red’s main room, but it wasn’t too close either. There were specially made spell formations set up around the room in the room. They could be used to isolate the aura and power that was leaked during advancement and prevent any accidents from happening.

For Chen Heng, this could also avoid some trouble. After all, although the probability was not high, if someone really came to disturb him during his advancement, it would still be risky for Chen Heng. Therefore, it would be better for him to be more cautious.

After arriving in the special room and making all the preparations, Chen Heng turned around and found a random place to sit down. Then, he slowly closed his eyes.

After closing his eyes, the surrounding vision instantly dimmed. In Chen Heng’s body, a huge amount of power was brewing. Telekinetic power, magical power, divine power, slaughter power, etc. The many powers in Chen Heng’s body were all circulating under his control, gradually becoming active.

Then, Chen Heng used his own powerful spiritual power to mobilize these powers, making them circulate according to the nameless refinement method. Along with this process, waves of inexplicable aura appeared and rose from Chen Heng’s body.

It was not until a long while later that the aura on his body calmed down and stopped leaking out. From the outside, he looked as if he was sleeping. There was no aura at all, and he was very stable. However, in a place that ordinary people did not know, his power was increasing in an inexplicable way until he was close to his limits.

Inside Chen Heng’s body, a golden true spirit was shining brightly. Its brilliance was dazzling, making people feel especially sacred and dignified. Time slowly passed.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Heng slowly opened his eyes when his silent body once again bloomed with vitality. A brand new power was emerging.

After a long period of wear and tear in Chen Heng’s body, his body, which had already become much weaker, began to bloom with vitality again, and that vigorous qi blood began to appear.

“Is it over?”

Chen Heng opened his eyes silently and felt the changes that appeared in his body. He was a little surprised. This time, the process of his advancement was much smoother than he had expected.

Of course, this was not too surprising. This time, he did not start from scratch but revitalized himself. Even in this world, the most critical criteria to reach Level Four was to awaken one’s origin and transform the origin into a spirit.

In Chen Heng’s perspective, this was actually the process of sublimating the origin and turning it into a true spirit. And this process was extremely difficult for people who had never experienced it before. It could even be highly risky and life-threatening.

But for Chen Heng, it was exceptionally simple. After all, his true spirit had already been awakened. He didn’t need to take too big a risk to awaken the hidden power within the origin and let his true spirit revive again.

This was the biggest hurdle in advancing to Level Four, and it wasn’t much of a challenge to Chen Heng. Naturally, it went very smoothly. What truly surprised Chen Heng was the speed of his advancement.

Originally, based on Chen Heng’s own estimation, if he wanted to advance to Level Four, there shouldn’t be too much of a problem in theory. However, it was hard to deduce the required time accurately. It might take one or two months.

However, it would only take him half a month at most, looking at it now. To Chen Heng, this could be considered a huge lead. Naturally, it was worth the surprise.

After confirming that he had successfully advanced, Chen Heng didn’t immediately start to move. Instead, he first felt it. After feeling it slightly, he quickly understood the reason for his advance.

Wang Zhong. When Chen Heng fell into silence, Wang Zhong went out to stir up trouble again. He started a massacre in many places, thus providing Chen Heng with a large amount of slaughter power.

This slaughter power was converted into actual power, greatly speeding up Chen Heng’s advancement process. As a result, it allowed him to shorten the advancement time.

After realizing this answer, Chen Heng was inexplicably speechless. In the end, he shook his head and got up to leave.

Walking out of the room, he walked to the center of the basement and looked at Red’s condition. As he expected, after his advancement, Red had also undergone many changes.

The barrier that was originally in front of it and difficult to cross was no longer a problem for the present Red. Now, after being stimulated by new power, he had already fallen into a deep sleep and began to transform.

This result was undoubtedly not bad. However, Red’s transformation time was much longer compared to Chen Heng. At least according to Chen Heng’s estimation, if nothing unexpected happened, it would take at least two to three months.

Of course, if Chen Heng was willing to infuse a large amount of slaughter power into Xiao Hong’s body, it could also shorten this time. However, if this was the case, then it would be easy for new problems to arise. Therefore, Chen Heng did not do much. He just silently turned around and left this area.

After advancing to Level Four, Chen Heng’s various aspects of power would be enhanced. Therefore, he should be pretty occupied in the recent period.

…

“My king, have you learned it?”

On the other side, Ye Zi looked at Lu Yao in front of her in an empty room and said solemnly. At this moment, she had already returned to her human form and was giving Lu Yao a serious lesson. Her small face appeared quite serious.

Opposite her, Lu Yao’s expression also looked very serious. At this moment, when she heard Ye Zi’s words, she could not help but nod her head seriously, indicating that she had understood.

Recently, Lu Yao’s life had been relatively easy. Ever since that day when she had narrowly escaped from the ruin, Lu Yao had returned home.

After a short period of hiding, with Ye Zi’s help, she had succeeded in temporarily sealing the Ancient Armor in her body. Although the Ancient Armor was a precious secret treasure, it was currently of little help to Lu Yao herself. On the contrary, the existence of the mecha had placed a huge burden on her.

After all, she was not Chen Heng, so she did not have that much power. With her current strength, not to mention operating the mecha, even if she was only enduring the power of the mecha, she would not be able to bear it and would feel great pressure.

Rather than that, it would be better to seal the mecha directly to prevent some risks from arising. At the same time, this could also prevent the risk of the battle armor’s aura from being exposed and being discovered by others.

At least now, just like the last time in the secret realm, the incident of being discovered by others would not happen again. And in recent times, her strength had grown rather well. With Ye Zi’s guidance and help, she had already made great progress.

If she continued to maintain this pace, she would not be far from reaching Level Two. Of course, the reason why she was able to move so quickly was also related to the Golden Mark in Lu Yao’s body.

After all, the Golden Mark still existed in her body, and as Lu Yao grew, it continued to release its power. As the reincarnation of the Golden King, Lu Yao didn’t need to work too hard to cultivate step by step. As time passed, her power would increase with the awakening of the Golden Mark.

Without a doubt, this was cheating. However, she could only cheat in terms of strength. In other aspects, she still had to start from scratch. It was also because of this that Lu Yao would secretly come to the outside world to learn with Ye Zi outside of her busy schedule.

After another busy study, Lu Yao walked out of the room with a bitter face and headed home. Meanwhile, Ye Zi had once again turned into a puppy. The two of them looked very normal, just like a normal person taking her dog out for a walk.

It was just that when they returned home, they felt an unusual atmosphere.

“Excuse me, is this Lu Yao?”

In Lu Yao’s home, there were already people squatting there at this moment. It was a very young woman. The woman was very beautiful. She was wearing an ordinary shirt and long pants, but her standing posture was very straight. At this moment, she looked at Lu Yao, and a smile appeared on her face.

“We from the Garrison Department.

“Could you assist us?”

She looked at Lu Yao, who was standing in front of her and said softly. However, when she stood in front of her and heard the woman’s words, Lu Yao’s face instantly fell. At this moment, her heart started to grumble.

Although she had experienced many things in a short period of time and awakened the Golden Mark, at this moment, Lu Yao was still an ordinary girl in nature. An ordinary girl like her would definitely be nervous when someone from the government suddenly came looking for her.

In particular, she still had some unspeakable secrets on her. However, since she was already here, there was nothing she could do. She could only obediently follow the girl in front of her and leave to the other side.

“So, you admit that you entered that secret realm at that time.”

The woman from before sat upright and said thoughtfully in the quiet room. There were a few other investigators in uniform taking notes at the side.

“And according to what you said, after you entered that secret realm, you only participated in the trial and then chose to give up because you failed the trial?”

She continued to ask.

“Yes…”

Sitting opposite the woman, Lu Yao listened to the woman’s words and nodded nervously. At this moment, her legs were shaking. From the looks of it, she was a little way too nervous.

She lied in front of these government officers. She did not tell them about the true process of the trial but only said that she entered the trial and failed.

There was no other way. If she were to reveal the truth, the situation would become very complicated. Not only would she face unknown risks, but even the Ancient Mecha in her body could be seized and taken away.

After all, this was not an ordinary thing. It was a real Ancient Mecha. It would be fine If the Ancient Mecha had already recognized her as its master. In that case, no one would be able to take it away before she died.

But things would be much different if it was a mecha like hers that had not completely recognized her as its master. If the officers knew about it, they would definitely seize it and take it away for all sorts of reasons.

At most, they would give a huge amount of compensation after that. This was something that Lu Yao and Ye Zi could not accept. So she directly lied.

But fortunately, the investigators present did not have much doubt about Lu Yao’s words. After all, they did not expect that someone would be able to cheat in the Hero’s Trial and even obtain a complete mecha from it.

If someone could do this, he would definitely be an amazingly strong individual, but not the ordinary-looking Lu Yao in front of them. Therefore, they did not doubt this.. The reason they sought out Lu Yao was not because of this.
