On the platform, the permeating poisonous mist and murderous intent completely dissipated, leaving only the scars left by the battle and the gleaming light of the central treasure. Black Erosion Spider retreated to the edge of the cave entrance, like a sculpture carved from ink jade, with its eight compound eyes half-closed. It no longer had any intention of attacking, but quietly performed its duty as a guardian.
Lin Qin carefully moved Cesar and Dylan to a relatively complete corner of the platform, and continued to stabilize their injuries with his pure and powerful middle Earth Divine Power. After the breakthrough, the level of his divine power underwent a qualitative change, and his power was particularly peaceful, inclusive and nourishing. Dylan's Destruction Divine Power was domineering and exclusive, but under the gentle guidance of a higher level of power, it gradually suppressed the alien energy at the wound and began to slowly heal itself. Cesar's injury was more troublesome, and his soul was injured. Lin Qin could do more to protect it, waiting for it to slowly regain consciousness.
Time flowed in silence. After a long time, Dylan was the first to vomit out a mouthful of blood. Although his face was still pale, his breath finally stabilized. He struggled to sit up cross-legged and performed exercises to heal his injuries. After a while, Cesar let out a weak groan. His eyelids trembled a few times, and finally he slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were dim, but he finally saved his life.
"Ahem----I almost went to see the God of Death----" Cesar twitched the corner of his mouth, trying to laugh but it affected the wound, and he grinned in pain.
Dylan opened his eyes and glanced at him coldly. He said nothing, but his tense expression softened a little.
Lin Qin Seeing that both of them were no longer in danger, he stopped and adjusted his breathing for a moment to completely settle down the state that he had just broken through and was not yet completely stable. Every thought and every breath was related to the earth under his feet. There was a deep resonance with the broader Laws of Earth. He felt that he was stronger than ever before. The feeling of power coming from the heart and being as vast as the sea was completely unmatched by Lowgod.
He stood up, glanced at the treasure in the center of the platform, then looked at Black Erosion Spider, and finally returned to Dylan and Cesar.
"Those things," Lin Qin pointed at Godhead and the artifact, "What do you think?"
Dylan followed Lin Qin's eyes and looked at the gray-black Destruction Godhead. A trace of desire flashed in his eyes, but it was suppressed immediately. He snorted coldly, "If you hadn't made the final breakthrough, we are already corpses. You just have to deal with the things." Although he is arrogant, his grudges are clear. His survival this time is all thanks to Lin Qin's desperate breakthrough. Without Lin Qin, let alone the treasure, his life would be gone.
Cesar also sat up straight with difficulty, glanced at the dark Darkness Godhead, and shook his head with a wry smile, "Brother Lin Qin, you are the one who got your life back. No matter how thick-skinned I am, Cesar has no shame in dividing things at this time. You can make up your mind, I have no objection." His nature is not greedy for money, but after traveling between life and death, some things can be seen more clearly.
Lin Qin was silent for a moment and walked towards the center of the platform. He did not touch the artifacts first, but went straight to the three Godhead bases. He first reached out and gently touched the earthy yellow Earth Godhead.
He put away Earth Godhead, turned around, took off the gray-black Destruction Godhead without hesitation, walked to Dylan, and handed it over.
Dylan was stunned and looked up at Lin Qin, his narrow eyes filled with astonishment. "You ---- give it to me?"
"You majored in Rules of Destruction, and this object is suitable for you." Lin Qin spoke calmly, as if stating a simple fact, "This time we joined forces to fight against the enemy, and you did your best. Without you destroying the node, I would have no chance of breaking through. It's your turn to get this object."
Dylan moved his lips, wanting to say something, but was speechless for a moment. He looked at Destruction Godhead, who exuded a seductive aura in front of him, and then looked at Lin Qin's calm eyes, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. As arrogant as he was, from now on He does not easily accept favors from others, especially such heavy gifts. But the temptation of the middle Godhead is too great for a beast like him that has been stuck at the peak of Lowgod for a long time. This is not only an increase in strength, but also the key to a higher level!
After struggling for a long time, Dylan took a deep breath, without any false excuses, stretched out his slightly trembling hand and took the Destruction Godhead. It was cold in his hand, and the Destruction aura inside was stirring, faintly echoing his bloodline.
"I Dylan have recorded this." He said solemnly with a hoarse voice. He didn't say more, but this promise is as heavy as a sacred mountain.
Lin Qin nodded, then walked towards the dark Darkness Godhead, took it off, and came to Cesar.
Cesar's eyes widened and he waved his hands repeatedly. "I can't do it! I can't do it! Lin Qin Brother, I really can't do it!
This time I didn't do anything except causing trouble and almost costing my life. This Godhead is too precious----"
"Take it." Lin Qin interrupted him and put Darkness Godhead directly into his hand, "You contain the puppet and finally interfere with the spider. It is not useless. The dark attribute is suitable for you."
Cesar held the Darkness Godhead that seemed to be able to swallow light, feeling the pure and vast energy in it, and his hands were shaking. He opened his mouth, looked at Lin Qin's unquestionable eyes, and finally all pushed He swallowed all his words and turned them into a long sigh, and the gratitude that could not be concealed in his eyes. "Brother Lin Qin----Don't say anything anymore. If something happens in the future, I will be in a sea of swords and fire. If I Cesar frown, I won't be a human being!"
After allocating the two most valuable Godhead and Lin Qin, he walked towards the scattered Midgod Artifact. He took a moment and selected them. The broken giant sword was too sharp., it did not completely fit with his calm and heavy Laws of the Earth. The broken shield was extremely defensive, but he was confident that his own defense was enough. Finally, his eyes fell on the set of black leather armor that was neatly stacked and flowed with the luster of water waves.
This leather armor is tanned from the leather of an unknown beast. It is soft but extremely tough. It faintly exudes dual waves of darkness and Water Element. It has amazing defensive power and has extremely strong elemental resistance and physical damage reduction effects. What's even more rare is that it is light and does not affect movement. For him, it is a good protective supplement.
He put away his leather armor.
Lin Qin nodded and put the remaining things into Space Ring.
After handling the loot, Lin Qin walked towards Black Erosion Spider.
"Fifteenth Floor, what's the difference?" he asked directly.
The red light of Black Erosion Spider's compound eyes flashed slightly. "Fifteenth Floor, Guardian, are all middle gods. The environment is harsher, and dangerous places are everywhere. The level of treasures is higher., but the danger----far beyond this level. With your current strength, you may be able to give it a try, but for them," it glanced at Dylan and Cesar who were recovering from their injuries, "It's absolutely impossible."
Lin Qin knows it in his heart. Fourteenth Floor is already the limit of Lowgod, and starting from Fifteenth Floor is the real trial ground prepared for the middle god. Even if Dylan and Cesar refine Godhead, it will take a long time to adapt and improve, and they will not be able to get involved in higher levels in the short term.
"Where is the passage?" Lin Qin asked.
Black Erosion Spider raised one of its forelimbs and pointed at the deep hole it climbed out of. "Deep in this cave, there is a one-way passage. It can be activated by injecting the corresponding attribute power, leading directly to the starting area of Fifteenth Floor."
Lin Qin thought for a moment and decided to go have a try first. Anyway, there was not much time left before leaving Graveyard of the Gods.
"Are you from Netherworld?" Lin Qin changed the subject. This Spider Divine Beast has a special shape and a cold and evil aura. It is very different from the Yulan Continent and even the creatures in nearby planes. It is more in line with the characteristics of the legendary Higher Plane "Netherworld".
Black Erosion Spider was silent for a moment, seeming to be recalling. "Yes. I was born in Netherworld Bone Swamp". I was later captured and placed here to guard the passage and test those who came after me. It has been countless years since then." Its voice carried a hint of eternal desolation.
"Netherworld----What about the strong ones? What are the rules?" Lin Qin asked. Sooner or later he would go to Higher Plane, so it would be beneficial to know in advance.
"Netherworld----It is vast and boundless, and the strength of the plane far exceeds Material Plane. Killing is an eternal theme, the strong are respected, and there is no order at all. Seven Sovereigns rules the seven major regions, but it is only a nominal rule. Killing and fighting are everywhere. The soul is currency, a resource, and it is the growth of the strong. "Qualification -" Black Erosion Spider spoke slowly, in an indifferent tone, as if he was describing something that had nothing to do with him. "There, Lowgod is everywhere, and the middle god has some status. Only Highgod can dominate one side. As for Chief Sovereign----that is the supreme legend."
It paused and looked at Lin Qin with its compound eyes, as if judging his strength. "Your current strength, Netherworld, is enough to protect yourself if you are more cautious, and you can even occupy a small territory in a remote area. But if you want to truly gain a foothold, or even pursue higher levels - you need to be stronger."
Lin Qin wrote it down silently. Chaos, killings, and forests of strong men—this was not far from what he expected. Higher Plane It was indeed not a good place.
"Thank you." Lin Qin nodded to Black Erosion Spider. Although he was fighting life and death just now, since the other party fulfilled his duty as a guardian and provided useful information, he would not be rude.
Black Erosion Spider stopped talking, and his compound eyes were half-closed again, as if they had turned into sculptures again.
