Chapter 5874
- When the young man was about to attack again, Max hurriedly said, “My friend, we’re not here to attack you. We only want to ask if you’re interested in joining us to enter one of the obstacles we found.” Upon hearing Max’s words, the young man stopped attacking. However, he remained vigilant and kept a distance from the duo. David Bishop and Max stopped moving immediately and no longer moved toward the young man. “My name’s Max. I’m from the Heavenly Sword Mountain in the Solitary Destructive Heaven,” Max said as he looked at the young man. Following that, he introduced David Bishop to the young man. “This person next to me is from the Boundless Heaven’s Heavenly Pool Palace. His name is David Bishop. We only met a few days ago. I discovered the obstacle and invited him to join me then.” The young man responded lightly, “Uthred from the Blood Dragon Clan in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven.” These words confirmed David Bishop and Max’s speculations about him not being human. The Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven was a Devata Realm inhabited mostly by Celestial Beasts. The Celestial Beasts there were rather hostile to humans so it was rare to see humans there. Max, “As it turns out, you’re a friend from the Blood Dragon Clan in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven... My friend, are you interested in joining us to overcome that obstacle?” “Sure.” Uthred nodded slightly in response. With that, David Bishop and Max found their third member. Max said, “Let’s continue to search this place for the remaining two members.” The trio wandered around in search of the two remaining members while they maintained a safe distance from each other. “What’s the Blood Dragon Clan?” David Bishop asked Max through Voice Transmission, “I know the dragon clan is a heaven-grad force in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven, but I’ve never heard of the Blood Dragon Clan...” “Brother David, the Blood Dragon Clan is independent of the dragon clan even if they can be considered to be like a branch clan of the dragon clan. Despite that, they have five powerful titled Celestial Emperors among their ranks. Their relationship with the dragon clan is rather hostile since the dragon clan doesn’t acknowledge the members of the Blood Dragon Clan as one of them.” ... Another five days passed before the trio found another two people to join them. One of them was also from a heaven-grade force while the other person was a sectless cultivator. Max said to David Bishop and the others, “Since there are five of us now, it’s time for us to challenge the obstacle.” Now that there were five of them, they no longer bothered maintaining a safe distance. They had all come to an agreement that whoever tried to make a move would have to contend with the remaining four people in the group. Max led them into the lake and brought them to the depths of the lake. “There it is!” At the bottom of the lake, five gateways appeared in front of everyone’s eyes. “We need five people to open the five respective gates. I tried using a cloning technique, but it didn’t work. It requires a real person to open it. The energy from the gate is capable of detecting if one’s real or just a clone,” Max explained as he stood in front of one of the gates. Following that, David Bishop and the other four took their positions in front of the gates. The moment five of them stood in front of the gateways, the water in the lake began to stir violently. If someone were to look at the lake from outside, they would see the originally calm surface of the lake boiling at this moment. In just an instant, an energy shrouded the five people before they vanished into thin air. When the darkness receded, David found himself in an enclosed space that looked like a small sealed room. The pressure in the room was immense and fell on him immediately. He tried to ease the pressure by using his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted by the law of space’s Space Elemental Profundity. Alas, it was futile. The pressure easily overwhelmed his energy. At this moment, the World Cleansing Divine Water’s voice rang in David Bishop’s ears. “This place is very suitable for you to refine the energy of the Pine Willow Divine Tree.” David Bishop’s eyes lit up immediately. “How do I refine it?” “Calm down and focus. I’ll guide the energy of the Pine Willow Divine Tree that was absorbed by the Divine Tree of Life into your body. At that time, just follow my instructions to refine the energy,” the Word Cleansing Divine Water said. “Alright.” David Bishop nodded. After a few moments, David Bishop was completely shrouded in white light. At the same time, the pressure continued pressing down on him. The white light that shrouded his body seemed to merge before surging into his body. “Amazing! The energy from the Pine Willow Divine Tree can be refined in such a way. I can feel my body is going through a transformation.” David Bishop was fascinated by the sensation he felt when he was refining the energy from the Pine Willow Divine Tree.
