The Devourer - 110 Unsatisfied With His Strength!
Artoria’s eyes lit up when she saw Ling Tian, but blushed red when she remembered about their quality time just a few hours ago.
Ling Tian felt his blood boil, seeing Artoria’s bashful appearance. And on top of that, her body seemed to have developed a little bit and her aura had also grown. Ling Tian could swear that her already huge breasts got even bigger.
But she seemed like she would fall asleep any second. Artoria is an existence that has no need for sleep, so this sign made some things clear to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian restrained the lustful fire within him and observed Artoria.
” As I thought…” Ling Tian muttered as he looked at Artoria.
Because of her receiving Ling Tian’s virgin yang essence, Artoria was evolving into a higher level being. Her life force alone had increased at a terrifying rate and it was still increasing. Her already fair skin was now even fairer, brimming with life. The holy lance Rhongomyniad and her steed Llamrei, which were bound to her were also evolving.
Ling Tian is a Nature Immortal and his Nature Immortal powers focus on Origin and Evolution. So Artoria’s entire being was transcending to a higher level. After seeing this, Ling Tian understood that he was underestimating the Nature Immortal Body all the time thinking that he was overestimating it. This alone verified why the ‘Nature Immortal Body’ is ranked supreme among all the special physiques out there.
” Artoria. Why are you forcing yourself awake? Just sleep and when you wake up, it’ll be all over.” Ling Tian reprimanded.
” But Master…” Artoria looked a bit unwilling.
” Oh, come on. I won’t leave you, if that’s what you are worrying about. So just sleep and let the evolution process continue.” Ling Tian said with a reassuring smile.
Artoria smiled weakly and fell unconscious the next second.
Ling Tian picked her up in a princess style and walked towards an empty green land.
‘ System, buy me a large mansion that contains all the necessities required.’ Ling Tian said to the system.
…..
With Xin Qinyue’s group.
They were all in the same place as before. It was not that the group didn’t want to leave, rather, Althea didn’t let them.
Before parting, Ling Tian had said ‘Stay here and protect them.’ to Althea. Althea had taken the ‘Stay here’ in his sentence quite literally and didn’t let them leave the place.
A day ago, coincidentally, Su Fengxi’s group met up with Xin Qinyue’s group and they too were held behind by Althea.
During this time, some arrogant young masters who were dazzled by Althea’s otherworldly beauty and couldn’t hold in their lust, tried to make moves on her, but ended up with broken bones.
If not for the fear that, Ling Tian might get displeased with her, Althea would have killed the ‘young masters’ in cold blood for annoying her. She didn’t know that, Ling Tian himself would have given them a fate worse than death for trying to make a move on his ‘woman’.
On top of it, she forced everyone, except for the women Ling Tian is acquainted with, to call her ‘Your Highness’! If they didn’t, she would terrorize them till they call her ‘Your Highness’.
Unable to take it, Du Lingyun and the other leaders of various groups abandoned the group that Althea was insistent on keeping here and continued on their journey to the Ice Phoenix Empire.
Su Fengxi’s group had it relatively easy since they come from the same sect as Ling Tian.
Without Artoria’s presence, Althea wasn’t easily annoyed. But thinking that her nemesis was with Ling Tian while she is stuck here babysitting these people made her feel irritated.
Xin Qinyue was treated much better by Althea since she always innocently bragged about ‘Brother Tian’, which was very much to Althea’s liking.
Althea had asked Virgo to do some things for her, but all she got was..
” I only serve my master! If you want me to serve you, ask my master.”
Althea was unable to say anything. Ling Tian himself had said that Virgo is his personal maid, only his.
Virgo didn’t attend to others and simply stayed silent the entire time, other than taking care of Bai Yun’er, Little Blue and the white puppy Lycka.
Esdeath pretty much ignored Althea’s gangster-like actions and simply stared at the direction Ling Tian had went off to with a black pet collar in her hand.
‘ I’ll put this on him when he gets back. He keeps running away everytime.’ Esdeath thought.
Yan Zuqing had her handful with handling things. To make it worse, Duan Xingtian, who was referred as ‘Brother Xingtian’ by the Su siblings is a pursuer of Yan Zuqing and has been trying to court her which was starting to annoy her.
Duan Xingtian only has eyes for Yan Zuqing even with the presence of an otherworldly beauty like Althea, which proved how loyal he is to his crush.
But Yan Zuqing didn’t feel the same. When Ling Tian had accidentally took Yan Zuqing’s first kiss, Ling Tian didn’t think much of it and simply let it go. But the same was not true for Yan Zuqing.
She had been thinking of that incident the whole time and also started to feel some affection for Ling Tian, but stopped herself from expressing it, thinking about her ‘True background’ and the problems at her ‘home’.
Unlike others, Yan Zuqing understood Ling Tian’s true strength and also understood that he too is limited by the constraints of this world. But what she didn’t understand was that, Ling Tian has never found a use for his Spirit Energy cultivation in a battle and always rely on his Ki.
Su Lingyan simply focused on cultivation as she didn’t want to be left behind by others. After Ling Tian had used his Nature Energy to remove the curse on her, the rank of her spirit root had increased and her cultivation speed was far higher than before.
Su Mengyan was pretty much very quiet, unlike her original personality. Su Xumei was her usual cold self, but she was very nervous as she was sure that Ling Tian is very displeased with how she didn’t inform him when the rank 5 monster beast attacked the group and placed her pride as a priority.
Su Fengxi and Lin Yanran were helpless because of Althea and along with other woman that are acquainted with Ling Tian, they were forced to call her ‘Big Sister’. Lin Ke’er was quite nervous with Althea and simply hid behind Lin Yanran, her Aunt.
Althea, after learning that Lin Ke’er is Ling Tian’s disciple, tried to teach many things to her, but was annoyed when she saw how timid, Lin Ke’er is. She was annoyed by the fact that, ‘her Rayne’, who is not afraid of anything has such a timid disciple.
…….
Ling Tian had bought a very large mansion, that contained all necessities required, including electronic appliances and gadgets.
Ling Tian placed Artoria in a luxurious bed in one of the many rooms in the mansion.
Ling Tian then went out of the mansion and stood at an empty place in the wide garden of the mansion.
Ling Tian trained for eight hours in his fighting techniques and then thought of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber he got from the System.
Ling Tian brought out the Hyperbolic Time Chamber from his system inventory.
The so-called Hyperbolic Time Chamber was a semi-spherical shaped white coloured house with just one brown door.
Ling Tian didn’t underestimate it by its small appearance as he knew that, on the other side of the door exists an endless white void.
Ling Tian was excited with the thought of finally getting a chance to train to his hearts content. The last time he actually trained for more than a day was at the closed dimension after the fighting Jiang Zhentian.
Whenever he thought about training, he would always get occupied by other things, mostly related to women. Though because of his immense luck, he was still able to power up drastically through some ridiculously lucky encounters.
But Ling Tian had always felt a dissatisfaction in gaining his strength without working for it. Maybe it was his Saiyan nature affecting him. But he wanted to train and see just what level of power he could gain if he put in some effort and hard work.
Suddenly, an idea popped up in Ling Tian’s mind and he started to become excited.
