Beibei: "Boss, use this purple sword to cut the meat, it works great!"

Well, Beibei also knew that Lei Lin was secretly protecting Lin Lei. After all, it was a Magic Beast, and its sense of smell was far from ordinary.

Although Lei Lin could conceal his aura, his natural scent could not be completely hidden, so he couldn't fool Beibei at all.

It was just that he had warned Beibei in advance not to tell Lin Lei, so as not to affect Lin Lei's opportunity to vent his frustrations in the mountain range.

"Squeak, squeak!" (I wasn't just being anxious? I rushed over subconsciously. Besides, my skin is thick, so I'm fine!)

Beibei squeaked, and although Lei Lin couldn't understand it, he guessed the general meaning.

He chuckled, continued feeding it, and thought to himself, The little guy is quite cute, but in the end, he belongs to Lin Lei.

Hmm, should I go catch a Magic Beast as a pet too?

It could at least provide me with some emotional value!

While Lei Lin was teasing Beibei, Lin Lei had already begun his awakening.

"Ah... ahhh... ah!"

Listening to Lin Lei's heart-wrenching screams of pain, Lei Lin smiled slightly and paid them no mind.

Even the Dragonblood Pill he had made by hand could not eliminate the pain.

For Lin Lei to drink dragon blood directly and even swallow the Dragon Crystal, even with the Blue Heart Grass, he had to endure the agony of dragon blood burning his body.

Well, it was no wonder he would be unconscious for three days and three nights in the original story.

When Lin Lei woke up, what he saw were the carcasses of the bear and the dragon, which had been roughly butchered, and Lei Lin, who was busy tracing the Magic Array on the ceiling of the cave.

He had just wanted to ask Lei Lin if his awakening was successful when he discovered his own abnormality first.

Dragon scales, black dragon scales!

Just like those of the Spine-backed Iron-Armored Dragon, though shrunk countless times, the scales covered his arm—which he was about to use to rub his eyes—in a regular and dense pattern.

"You're awake. How do you feel?"

Lei Lin asked about Lin Lei's condition without turning his head, while confirming whether the traced array patterns were clear.

Lin Lei didn't answer immediately; instead, he punched the stone wall to the side, smashing a large hole directly into it.

The flying debris whistled through the air like bullets, creating a sharp sound.

"Brother Lei Lin, did I succeed?!"

Lei Lin still didn't turn around, only nodding.

With him here, even if it had failed, what of it? He would have just used the ready-made materials to refine another Dragonblood Pill for Lin Lei to continue.

How could there be any possibility of failure?

One hundred percent success!

"Alright, since you've succeeded, come over and further refine the butchered Magic Beast materials."

"My Space Ring is too small to hold everything, so I can only keep the most precious parts."

A Space Ring was nothing to a Saint Realm powerhouse; it was basically standard equipment after joining any major faction.

But for anyone below the Saint Realm, it was extremely precious.

The Space Ring in Lei Lin's hand was a gift from Falling Leaf.

The space inside was very small, only a few cubic meters, so it really couldn't hold the flesh and blood of two giant beasts.

An excited Lin Lei looked at the Purple-Striped Black Bear and the Spine-backed Iron-Armored Dragon, which had been largely butchered, and felt another wave of emotion.

The materials from a Saint Realm Magic Beast, plus those from an extremely precious Spine-backed Iron-Armored Dragon—this was another massive fortune!

After he had meticulously sorted the flesh and blood materials of the two giant beasts and tied them up as best he could with beast tendons, he came to Lei Lin's side to watch him organize the traced array patterns.

"Brother Lei Lin, what are you doing?"

Lei Lin stared at the final traced blueprint and, without looking up, pointed to the ceiling of the cave. "I discovered that the elemental concentration here is abnormally high, almost a hundred times that of the outside world."

"I investigated it and then discovered this Magic Array!"

After looking at the Magic Array for a long while, Lin Lei exclaimed, "This Magic Array is so complex!"

Lei Lin's attention remained on the blueprint as he chuckled, "Just 'complex'?"

Lin Lei blinked and asked, "What else?"

Lei Lin sighed, "Lin Lei, you are, after all, a genius mage of the Ernst Magic Academy!"

"Things like Magic Arrays, even if you don't study them, you should spend more time trying to understand them."

"You can't just learn how to set up a Soul Contract Magic Array and then ignore everything else."

"Let me put it this way!"

After thinking for a moment, Lei Lin pointed to the tendons, bones, and flesh of the butchered Purple-Striped Black Bear.

"If I had to choose between getting a Saint Realm Purple-Striped Black Bear for free or taking one look at this Magic Array, I wouldn't even spare the bear a second glance."

After saying that, he pointed to the flesh and blood materials of the Spine-backed Iron-Armored Dragon. "Even if the Spine-backed Iron-Armored Dragon had also reached the Saint Realm and was bundled together for me to contract, it wouldn't be worth as much as this Magic Array."

Lin Lei was dumbfounded for a moment, and he couldn't help but glance at Delin beside him!

Delin said solemnly, "Lei Lin is exaggerating, but this magic formation is indeed quite extraordinary!"

Lin Lei asked with a mix of confusion and shock, "This magic formation, is it really that powerful?!"

Lei Lin waved his hand and said, "Mm, to be able to gather elemental essence to this degree, how could it not be powerful?"

"However, that is not the most terrifying part. The most terrifying thing is that gathering elemental essence is not even the primary function of this magic formation..."

"Sigh~, forget it. You wouldn't understand even if I told you now. I'll explain it to you once I've fully grasped it."

"Go pick out some tender meat and make some roasted meat first. We'll leave once we've eaten."

"For some reason, I suddenly feel uneasy. I have a feeling this place is not somewhere we should stay for long."

Lin Lei nodded, grabbed his sword, and headed toward the butchered meat and materials.

"Wait!!!"

Lei Lin let out a sudden, explosive shout, leaving Lin Lei stunned.

He looked at Lei Lin strangely and asked, "What is it, Brother Lei Lin?"

Lei Lin pointed at the sword in his hand, then hurriedly looked toward the center of the magic formation on the cave ceiling, before looking back at the purple sword in Lin Lei's hand.

As his gaze darted back and forth, his expression grew increasingly grim!

Lin Lei also realized something and looked at the purple sword in his hand, saying, "Brother Lei Lin, is there a problem with this sword?"

"It felt a bit difficult when I was butchering the Purple-Striped Black Bear and the Spine-backed Iron-Armored Dragon earlier."

"Beibei found this sword for me; not only is it sharp, but it's also quite handy~"

Feeling the sense of crisis in his heart growing heavier and seeing the lines of the magic formation on the cave ceiling lighting up with silver radiance, Lei Lin didn't say another word and shoved the blueprints into his Space Ring.

Then, not even bothering with the meat and materials of the Purple-Striped Black Bear and the Spine-backed Iron-Armored Dragon, he grabbed Lin Lei by the back of his collar and bolted toward the exit!

At that speed, Lin Lei, whose physique had been further enhanced by the intensity of his dragon transformation, felt as if his neck was about to be snapped.

He felt as if his clothes were about to be torn apart by Lei Lin!

While fleeing, Lei Lin shouted, "Beibei, keep up!"

His voice was filled with anxiety!

Beibei, who was currently gnawing on a piece of Spine-backed Iron-Armored Dragon meat, didn't hesitate and immediately followed.

In just a few moments, the two of them and the mouse reached the outside of the cave.

No longer restricted by the environment, arcs of electricity erupted from Lei Lin's body, his speed increasing by another thirty percent as he sprinted even faster!

Lantan and her subordinates, who were secretly guarding the cave entrance, initially looked at each other in confusion, not understanding what was happening.

But then, Lantan looked toward the cave entrance, and as she felt the increasingly violent fluctuations of the elemental essence, her pupils constricted.

Without a word, she led her subordinates in a desperate, frantic escape!
