"It's a death anyway, let's go and take a look."
Regarding the abnormal behavior of the monster, Ling Tian knew that the light source was definitely extraordinary, and perhaps the hope for life was there.
Without thinking, he burned up his last bit of energy and headed straight for the light source.
"Just a little bit more."
They were only a few dozen meters away from the light source, and the effects of the blood sacrifice had all been used up. When Ling Tian was about to consider whether to use the last blood sacrifice, the red dragon behind him suddenly spit out an extremely terrifying energy beam from his mouth and shot towards him.
There was no time to dodge. Just before the beam of light struck his body, Ling Tian activated his final blood sacrifice. In a flash, all the energy rapidly converged into a defensive shield.
Unfortunately, the shield had not yet been fully formed, and the beam of light had already blasted in, instantly smashing it to pieces. The powerful shock wave hit Ling Tian's chest at high speed.
“Ah~”
It felt like he was hit by a weight of ten thousand tons, his internal organs were displaced, his sternum was fractured, and he was thrown out like a cannonball.
"Puff~"
While flying backwards, Ling Tian sprayed three times in a row, taking away at least nine or two taels of blood.
But he didn't expect that he would be knocked towards the light source.
With a bang, he crashed into the middle of the light source. Fortunately, the energy shield and breastplate weakened him. Although he was seriously injured, his life was temporarily safe.
"What's this?"
Looking at the fist-sized blood-red crystal floating half a meter high in front of him, emitting an eerie light, it seemed as if an incomparable magical power was attracting him, and he couldn't help but reach out to grab it.
As soon as he started, a strange phenomenon occurred. Eight beams of light shot up into the sky, just covering Ling Tian. The light became brighter and brighter. Ling Tian, who was unable to move, could only watch the red dragon's bloody mouth biting towards him.
At the critical moment, he became ethereal inside the beam of light, and then in a flash, he disappeared from this world.
The red dragon, who was a step slower, roared towards the sky, and then a bloody storm ensued.
"Ahem... I'm... not dead?"
After wiping the corner of his mouth where blood had just spurted out, Ling Ren became confused as he looked at the different scene in front of him.
“Rustle…”
“Swoosh~”
Hearing the sound, he retreated violently and chopped the low bushes with the scimitar in his hand.
"Hehehe~"
"porcupine?"
A porcupine as big as a bucket escaped from the bushes, with countless sharp spines on its body standing upright, but most of them were broken off, apparently caused by Ling Tian's previous attack.
"Why is it only at the early stage of level three? Could it be... that the beam of light just now was a portal, sending me to the next level?"
“Swoosh~”
Countless flying spikes interrupted Ling Tian's thoughts. Without thinking, he gripped the scimitar tightly and slashed it several times, instantly forming an impenetrable energy wall.
“Clang clang clang…”
"We have to solve it quickly, otherwise it will attract other troubles."
While the effects of the blood sacrifice were still lingering, Ling Tian, despite the pain of his severe injuries, advanced instead of retreating, actively attacking. With a single explosive step, the scimitar in his hand slashed through the porcupine at lightning speed, slicing it in half before it could even howl.
After the beast crystal was dug out, the porcupine's body turned into countless points of light and dissipated in the world.
Not daring to stop, he retreated quickly. Two minutes later, he found a cliff. After a few taps, he found a sunken position in the middle and stopped. He took out the pickaxe and started hammering. In less than ten seconds, he had dug out a small hole more than one meter deep.
At this time, the effect of the blood sacrifice had just ended, and the sequelae of serious injuries and forbidden techniques broke out all at once. After spitting out two large mouthfuls of blood again, Ling Tian was already dying.
After bringing out a top-grade corpse crystal from the space and swallowing it, he used his remaining mental power to block the cave entrance with the blood crystal mountain ore in the space.
"I hope everything is alright..."
After doing all this, Ling Tian curled up and fell into a deep sleep.
"Hmm~"
Ling Tian woke up slowly, feeling extremely uncomfortable with the heavy head. He felt that his energy had been fully restored, but the wound on his chest had not yet healed. He coughed up a trace of blood when he moved a little.
"It's a blessing in disguise. I wonder what happened to Tugou and Zhan Mingyue?"
His worries were a bit unnecessary. Tu Gou was so cool that he was equipped with the new alloy equipment given to him by Ling Tian. He was simply a nightmare for the monsters on the first level. Even the guardian monsters on the first level had to give way to him.
Although Zhan Mingyue on the second floor was not that exaggerated, she could easily kill the monsters in the edge areas. After a day and a night, the space bracelet Ling Tian gave her was almost half used up, and there must be thousands of beast crystals in it.
"This guy's equipment is too good. If I were given a set of second-level equipment..."
"No wonder this guy hasn't given me a level 2 upgrade yet. Turns out he's trying to find a spot to farm Beast Crystals. What a plan!"
However, Zhan Mingyue did not complain. The better she did, the more benefits she would gain in the future. She firmly believed this.
"continue!"
......
A day later, Ling Tian had recovered almost completely, but he looked like an old man in his eighties or nineties. After a quick look inside himself, he found that he had less than a year to live.
"Fortunately, the people I killed were quite wealthy. With these exotic crystals, I should have no problem reaching the peak of perfection."
As soon as the thought flashed through his mind, the blood-red crystal he had obtained yesterday appeared in Ling Tian's hand.
"Hmm... Xenocrystalline resonance?"
He severed the connection and looked at the crystal carefully. "So this is also a beast crystal."
But considering the madness of the monsters on the fourth floor, this beast crystal is definitely extraordinary.
"Even that level 5 demon dragon went crazy for it, could this beast crystal be level 6?"
"Even if it's not level six, it's definitely at the peak of level five."
Ling Tian's breathing became rapid, and he secretly decided to upgrade, upgrade here!
Ling Tian got down to work right away. He picked up the pickaxe and dug hard. He didn't dare to be disturbed while upgrading.
After all, he was old, and he was out of breath after digging only a few meters deep. He had to swallow a few high-quality corpse crystals to restore his energy.
Taking advantage of this time, Ling Tian observed the situation in the space and felt that the spiritual energy was a little richer. The crops on the hundreds of acres were growing very well. What was even more pleasing was the poultry, which were increasing in number. It was a pity that there were no flying birds, otherwise it would be great to cultivate flying monsters.
Those flying monsters yesterday gave him quite a shock. Getting one out would not only be cool, but would also be perfect for traveling and escaping.
Although there are no flying birds, there are several majestic horses. If I could get a magical horse, traveling thousands of miles a day would not be a dream. Just thinking about it makes me happy.
I didn't fantasize for too long, my energy was restored and I continued digging.
clang clang clang~
Ling Tian kept digging holes, resuming them, and digging again. He stopped only at night and looked at the depth. It should be hundreds of meters.
"Almost there. I'll start by adjusting my condition to its peak."
