The fourth and fifth floors are key inspection areas.

Thanks to the efforts of the elders and patrol captains, when Li Zhiming reached the fourth floor, the place had been restored to its original state.

Elder Wang and others are carefully setting up new seals and restrictions.

"You have a strong recovery ability, it hasn't been long and you look like you're fine."

"Elder Wang, you are so kind. It has been quite some time."

"And I also took the healing medicine given by Elder Qin. Otherwise, how could I come down to help so quickly?" Li Zhiming said with a smile.

"I see. Since you are here to help, then don't just sit there."

"All the cells on the fourth floor have been checked, but there are still some empty cells that have not been cleaned. You go and clean them up. If there are corpses, burn them on the spot to avoid any further problems." Elder Wang reminded.

"Disciple obeys your command."

Li Zhiming nodded and began to patrol the fourth floor.

Now, during the battle on the fourth level, he had already observed and knew the specific locations of the three fallen demonic evil cultivators.

After a while, Li Zhiming came to the door of a cell.

The cell door was open at this time, and two patrol captains were cleaning the cell and replacing the chains with new ones.

When the two saw Li Zhiming coming in, they stopped what they were doing.

"Junior Brother Li." The two men bowed.

"Second Brother, I have been ordered to come to the fourth floor for support."

"Why don't you leave this to me? I used to clean cells and deal with corpses on the first floor, so I'm pretty good at it." Li Zhiming also bowed.

The two nodded when they heard this.

Checking the cells and seals required a lot of mental energy, and it had to be done carefully without missing any details.

The high-intensity inspections made them mentally exhausted and they were in urgent need of rest.

The two of them didn't act pretentiously and bowed their hands in thanks: "Thank you, Junior Brother Li. I'll leave this to you. If you need anything, please inform us or other elders in time."

"Don't worry, you two brothers, go and have a rest."

Li Zhiming smiled and acted very friendly.

After the two men walked away, Li Zhiming looked around and after making sure that no one was coming, he began to collect the bodies.

[Corpse Collector Yin Kui Sect Spy (Sixth Grade), Qi and Blood +15w, True Qi +16w, Lifespan +30, Reinforcement Points +15]

[Congratulations to the host, you are so lucky and got a mysterious reward: puppet*2]

[Collecting the corpses of the Black Demon Sect captives (sixth grade), HP +20w, True Qi +17w, Lifespan +35, Reinforcement Points +20. Reward: "Black Demon Hand"]

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the talent characteristic: Hardening]

[Corpse-collecting Flame Giant Lizard (fifth-grade great monster), HP +30w, True Qi +20w, Lifespan +50, Reinforcement Points +50]

[Congratulations to the host, you are so lucky to win the mysterious prize: Giant Lizard Fire Essence]

A series of information flashed before Li Zhiming's eyes.

The three corpses on the fourth floor were all powerful warriors when they were alive, allowing him to obtain a huge amount of blood and true energy.

Immediately afterwards, Li Zhiming's body began to undergo subtle changes.

[Qi and blood have reached the threshold! ]

[When the quantitative changes accumulate to the limit, the host's body undergoes a qualitative change, gaining the innate characteristic: steel bones! ]

[The true energy has reached the threshold! ]

[Realm: Sixth-grade early stage → Sixth-grade middle stage (90%)]

"Cool!"

Li Zhiming almost cried out.

This improvement was too fast, he directly entered the middle stage of the sixth level.

He is only one step away from breaking through to the late sixth level!

[Puppet: The Yin Puppet Sect's unique martial arts, a top-grade Yin Puppet, running at full power, its combat power is comparable to that of a third-grade warrior! ]

When Li Zhiming saw this, his expression suddenly changed.

A top-grade Yin puppet with combat power comparable to that of a third-grade warrior? !

This is a good thing.

Having these two Yin puppets is equivalent to having two more personal bodyguards.

Moreover, he is a third-rank master who obeys him unconditionally.

Of course, the disadvantage is that the operation of the puppet requires spirit stones.

Moreover, the higher the grade of the puppet, the more spirit stones it consumes.

But anything that money can buy is not a problem.

He still has a lot of resources obtained from collecting corpses, including martial arts techniques, elixirs, and magical weapons.

You can sell them and exchange them for spirit stones.

The giant lizard fire essence that we just obtained is a rare treasure from heaven and earth.

[Monster Lizard Fire Essence, condensed from adult flame lizards, is a rare fire attribute refining material that can be used to create top-grade spiritual tools. It cannot be condensed by non-adult flame lizards that have reached the fifth level! ]

[For an adult flame giant lizard of level 5 or above, the probability of a fire essence being born in its body is less than one in ten thousand! ]

Li Zhiming had never come into contact with the giant lizard fire spirit before.

But this kind of rare treasure will definitely not be cheap.

The value of a piece of giant lizard fire essence is probably equivalent to that of an earth-level martial art!

Li Zhiming's mind moved, and a fist-sized, crystal clear orange crystal appeared in his palm.

This is the giant lizard fire spirit.

The moment this thing came out, the temperature in the entire cell soared rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Waves of scorching air emanated from the fire spirit, and the cold and damp cell turned into a stewing oven!

In just a few breaths, the entire cell was completely dry, and sparks began to appear on the straw mat on the ground, ready to catch fire.

Seeing this, Li Zhiming hurriedly collected the giant lizard fire spirit.

Then he took out his Green Bone Blade and slashed his arm.

Swish~!

A cold light flashed, and Li Zhiming felt a slight pain.

He looked at his arm and found that the Green Bone Blade had only left a white mark with a hint of red on it!

This means that his body has become strong enough to withstand low-grade spiritual weapons!

"Is this what steel bones are?!"

Li Zhiming was extremely excited.

At the same level, the demons and monsters are always more powerful than human warriors.

It's because their bodies are stronger.

Now, after Li Zhiming possessed the innate characteristic of iron bones, his physical strength was comparable to that of monsters.

This is definitely a huge boost to his combat power.

Coupled with the cat demon's innate trait that he had just merged with - agility, his body began to develop towards the direction of a demon beast.

This is a good thing.

Li Zhiming put away the Green Bone Blade and continued to check his rewards.

[Black Magic Hand: Black Magic Sect's inherited martial arts, elementary level of earth rank]

"Another earth-level martial art." Li Zhiming showed joy.

He glanced at his reinforcement points.

[Strength Points: 237]

There is still a long way to go before upgrading the Taichu Heart Sutra.

"I can't rely on adding points to this earth-level martial art. I have to practice it on my own."

Li Zhiming was thinking in his mind and felt that the strengthening points were still not enough.

"Go to the fifth floor and check. Hopefully there will be a body there."

A raging flame appeared in Li Zhiming's palm. He waved his hand and the flame rushed out, submerging the three corpses.

In a short while, the three bodies and the straw mats turned into ashes.

After cleaning the cells on the fourth floor, Li Zhiming came to the entrance of the fifth floor.

This was his first time stepping into the fifth floor, and he hoped he would not return empty-handed.

After entering the fifth floor, Li Zhiming looked around.

The space here is smaller than the fourth floor, with dim lighting and is very quiet.

Li Zhiming heard faint footsteps, which sounded very familiar to him, as did the breath coming from the front.

Immediately, three people came towards them.

The people who came were none other than Qin Yi and the two elders from the fifth floor.

"Li Zhiming, have you recovered so quickly?"

Qin Yi showed a look of surprise when he saw Li Zhiming coming to the fifth floor.

Li Zhiming had suffered serious injuries in the previous turmoil.

Even though he had the help of the elixir he gave, it was still a little beyond his expectation that he could be full of energy in just one afternoon.

He thought that Li Zhiming would not be able to function normally until at least tomorrow.

"Thanks to Elder Qin's medicine, I rested for an afternoon and came to help now that I can move around." Li Zhiming smiled.

"It's fine as long as it's recovered. How's the situation on the four floors above?"

"The disciples have cleaned up the empty cells, and have dealt with the corpses as well. After the fire, nothing is left." Li Zhiming replied.

"Well done, the fifth floor has returned to normal. We don't need you anymore. Go to the third floor and wait for me. That witch did something to your body. I'll go back and help you later." Qin Yi ordered.

"Disciple understands."

Li Zhiming sighed inwardly.

What a pity, there are no bodies on the fifth floor.

Just when Li Zhiming was about to leave, an urgent voice was heard.

"Elder Qin, the rebellious tiger demon seems to have fallen."

A patrol captain came quickly and reported with a bow.
