Meanwhile, as the little beast entered a state of cultivation.
Lin Tian was in another cave abode within the same precipitous mountain range.
He gathered his thoughts, coiled the Nine Nether Vine within his cave abode as well, and immediately began cultivating.
The evolution points needed to advance to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm amounted to a full hundred million.
Lin Tian dared not slack off in the slightest.
If he did not work a little harder, he feared he would not even qualify to laze around like a salted fish.
[Universe in the Sleeve], capable of devouring the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon within ten million miles, began operating inside the cave abode.
"Devoured one strand of sun essence. Evolution points +800." "Devoured one strand of spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Evolution points +700."
Having reached the early stage of Great Unity Golden Immortal, Lin Tian now achieved twice the results with half the effort in his cultivation.
He absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth much faster. With Universe in the Sleeve, a divine ability that could absorb everything within ten million miles, his cultivation speed had actually improved more than a hundredfold over before.
Moreover, this precipitous mountain range spanned a full ten million miles.
Both its spiritual energy and its sun and moon essence could withstand each of Lin Tian's siphoning gulps, like a whale sucking in water.
Lin Tian, who never moved his nest lightly and always acted with great caution, settled into this cave abode, peacefully absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon, rapidly increasing his evolution points.
This bout of cultivation lasted tens of thousands of years.
After fifty thousand years had passed.
One day, Lin Tian checked his evolution bar.
He discovered.
Even after so frantically absorbing the endless spiritual energy and sun and moon essence within ten million miles.
His evolution bar had advanced by less than one percent!
That really stung.
Lin Tian's heart nearly shattered.
At this rate, if he wanted to reach a hundred million evolution points, he would have to spend at least five million years filling that accursed evolution bar.
Sure enough, simply sitting in meditation and absorbing spiritual energy cannot possibly earn as many evolution points as actively hunting and devouring prey.
With that thought, Lin Tian decided to end his life as a salted fish cultivating in a mountain cave.
He had to travel through the Primordial World and kill a few more Fierce Beasts.
Besides, if he did not actively explore, those ten Origins could hardly fly into his cave abode for him to collect.
With that thought.
He withdrew the countless Nine Nether Vines coiled throughout this precipitous mountain range.
The instant all the Nine Nether Vines returned to his main body.
Rumble!
Inside the cave abode, his aura suddenly shot outward like serpents of lightning!
At that moment, his body, which had already shrunk to a little over ten zhang, contracted once again.
His body shrank to ten zhang.
Although his evolution points had increased by only a little over nine hundred thousand during these fifty thousand years of secluded cultivation.
His cultivation and divine abilities had actually become more concentrated and sharper.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Just as Lin Tian was examining himself.
The little beast streaked over from another cave abode like lightning!
It had to be said that the little beast, actually a peak Great Unity Golden Immortal, was pretty damn impressive once it displayed its abilities.
In terms of cultivation realm, the little beast stood firmly several heads above Lin Tian.
When it traversed space and flew from the other cave abode into Lin Tian's, it moved faster than lightning.
Lin Tian had not seen the little beast for tens of thousands of years.
When he saw it, he could not help exclaiming in surprise, "Well now, little Beast Emperor! I haven't seen you for tens of thousands of years, and you've grown this big!"
Lin Tian enveloped the little beast with his spiritual sense.
To his surprise, he discovered that it had clearly grown much larger. Before Lin Tian entered seclusion, it had been a little fellow only the size of a millstone.
Now, the little beast had grown into a mighty beast three zhang tall, and its eyes already carried a trace of the awe-inspiring dominance of an emperor of all beasts!
Roar, roar! Roar, roar!
The little beast kept bouncing around in front of Lin Tian, unusually lively, even somewhat out of character.
Over the hundred thousand years he had spent with the little beast.
The understanding between Lin Tian and the little beast had reached the point where their hearts could communicate.
During the fifty thousand years Lin Tian had spent in seclusion, the little beast had likewise been cultivating in seclusion. However, each of its retreats actually lasted only three thousand years, after which it would venture out to explore the ten-million-mile expanse of the precipitous mountain range. Over those fifty thousand years, it had already become the undisputed beast king of these mountains.
Now, Lin Tian called to the little beast several times, but it kept bouncing around without settling down.
Lin Tian sent a strand of spiritual sense toward the little beast and asked, "Where do you want to take me?"
The little beast hooked one of its powerful paws, now over a zhang long, across the ground.
Then it bounded a few steps in a certain direction and turned its still-furry head to look at Lin Tian, who stood inside the cave abode.
Its meaning was perfectly clear: it wanted Lin Tian to follow it somewhere.
At that moment, Lin Tian could not help feeling curious.
He set in motion the Nine Nether Vines that had transformed into his legs.
With steady steps, he followed behind the little beast.
He wanted to see just where the little beast intended to take him.
After all, this little beast was a Thunder Beast, an exceptionally rare variant in the Primordial World.
It could detect the slightest disturbance in the changes of heaven and earth. Even though it had not left this precipitous mountain range spanning ten million miles in all these tens of thousands of years, it could still sense disturbances beyond that distance.
Such disturbances were actually a form of like attracting like between exotic beasts and spiritual treasures.
As the little beast activated its peak Great Unity Golden Immortal ability to traverse space and flew toward the southern reaches of the vast, boundless Primordial Land.
Lin Tian also activated his divine ability to traverse the void, crossing hundreds of thousands of miles in an instant.
This search lasted several hundred years.
For those several hundred years, Lin Tian and the little beast dined on the wind and drank the dew.
They scarcely stopped for a single moment.
After all, as long as this sort of travel did not turn into an all-out flight for their lives, both the little beast and Lin Tian could endure it.
However, the distance Lin Tian and the little beast crossed during that time truly could not be calculated.
He had originally thought the little beast had merely sensed a disturbance, at most, hundreds of millions of miles away.
He had never expected that the little beast could actually detect some disturbance at an unknowably distant location.
This discovery left Lin Tian utterly shaken.
Even if Lin Tian took out his half of the Earth's Embryonic Membrane-the Earth Book, the Classic of Mountains and Seas-he could not sense anything from such a tremendous distance as the little beast could.
One day, the little beast finally stopped in a desolate, isolated forest.
