They've only just set off. Although many Fiend are cultivating in their private rooms, most of Fiend aren't in a hurry. They're mostly gathered in the hall drinking, chatting, making friends, and exchanging information.
Theodore, the black-haired youth, was one of them. He was also a God, but he was not the Metal Lifeform that came from Taya City.
"Young man, it's fate that we've met. Why don't we get to know each other? My name is Theodore, and what are you two?" Theodore had a feeling that Luo Ao was extraordinary the moment he first saw Luo Ao. Although he looked like an Pingping God, he gave Luo Ao an inexplicable sense of profound mystery.
My name is Luo Ao.
Echidna.
Luo Ao and Ao didn't intentionally ignore each other; in their Fiend lives, occasionally hearing stories from other Fiend was a form of enjoyment.
Soon, the three of them were chatting about all sorts of things. The black-haired youth was indeed eloquent and had a very lively and cheerful personality.
" Theodore, you've actually been to other continents, that's impressive." During their conversation, Luo Ao noticed that Theodore seemed to know a great deal about the customs and experiences of the other continents in the Infernal Realm.
"Haha, it's just that I usually read a lot of books about the Infernal Realm landscapes. Actually, I haven't been to that many places myself." Theodore waved his hand modestly, then took out a kind of food called 'Four-Colored Dumplings' from his Space Ring for the two of them to enjoy.
" Theodore, your four-colored dumplings are truly unique. The food I had in Taya City is nowhere near as good as these." After taking a few bites, Luo Ao immediately gave a thumbs up.
"Haha, I'm glad you like them. I have quite a few of these in my Space Ring." Theodore laughed heartily upon hearing this, seemingly enjoying the praise for the 'four-colored dumplings'.
For several days in a row, Luo Ao and Echidna chatted with Theodore occasionally and also got to know many other Fiend. Afterward, they returned to their private room and began to focus on their cultivation.
Luo Ao is currently focusing on cultivating the Elemental Laws of Fire. He had previously fused the ' Fire Element ' and ' Profound Mysteries of Burning ' to near perfection.
With the help of his Water Sovereign Clone, who also fused with the fire-elemental Profound Mysteries, and with the aid of a massive amount of Power of Faith, he quickly broke through this bottleneck, and the three Profound Mysteries have now been perfectly fused into one.
In terms of Profound Mysteries realm alone, he is now a genuine Six-Star Fiend.
"However, even with the aid of the Power of Faith, it might not be that fast to fuse this fourth Profound Mysteries." The Power of Faith can only accelerate the deduction of the fusion of Profound Mysteries; this process still requires time to slowly refine and cannot be accomplished overnight.
Moreover, for the fourth type to be integrated, the fourth Profound Mysteries must find a point of convergence with the previous three profound Profound Mysteries before there is any hope of integration.
However, finding a point of convergence is not so easy.
Luo Ao's ' Fire Element ' and ' Fire Body Technique ' have already merged, but the two Profound Mysteries of ' Fire Body Technique ' and ' Profound Mysteries of Burning ' are still on the path to fusion.
Only after the ' Fire Body Technique ' has been integrated with the other two great Profound Mysteries can Luo Ao officially begin the integration of the four Profound Mysteries.
Of course, the fusion process of these two individual Profound Mysteries went relatively smoothly. Especially now that the three avatars —the Water Sovereign Clone, the Saint Domain True Body, and the Fire Divine Clone— are working together to deduce the mysteries, the cultivation speed is far greater than before. At least before the four Profound Mysteries are fully fused, Luo Ao feels that he should not encounter any bottlenecks.
Inside a separate room Metal Lifeform.
Wearing a blue robe, Luo Ao sat cross-legged on the ground. The room he was in was now as Profound Mysteries of Scorching Heat as a magma world.
"Hiss~" The intense heat was concentrated in the room without any leakage. At this moment, Luo Ao seemed to have transformed into an active volcano. His figure became blurred and indistinct. He seemed to be quietly dormant, but in reality, he only needed a trigger to unleash a terrifying power that could shake the heavens and the earth in an instant.
Suddenly, all the heat in the room vanished, and the Profound Mysteries of Scorching Heat sensation of the air itself disappeared instantly.
" Luo Ao, you're awake." Echidna opened her bright eyes at that moment.
"How's your cultivation going?" Luo Ao stood up, looking quite pleased.
"It's alright. I'm still far from being able to cultivate the Edicts of Fate to the Highgod. However, in terms of my Water Law, I have now comprehended the fourth Profound Mysteries. It's just that fusing these Profound Mysteries is still a bit too difficult." Echidna shook her head.
Before becoming a god, Echidna followed a path of comprehending and fusing the Water Law. The two profound Profound Mysteries she wanted to fuse were the ' Essence of Water ' and the ' Flowing Water '. However, although she had begun to comprehend the other Profound Mysteries, the fusion of these two Profound Mysteries was still missing the final step.
"It's normal for Profound Mysteries fusion to be difficult, so don't worry. Let's go out and get something to eat and have a drink." Luo Ao and Echidna walked out of the house side by side.
The journey was peaceful; most of the Fiend were cultivating in their own rooms, and there were only a few Fiend in the hall at the moment, including, of course, Theodore.
Theodore was almost never seen practicing.
" Luo Ao, Echidna, you're out too. Come and chat with us." Theodore, who was feeling bored, suddenly brightened up when he saw Luo Ao and Echidna come out of the room.
"It's been a few days since we've had 'Four-Color Dumplings,' so we're coming right now," Luo Ao replied with a smile, and the two walked together to the table where Theodore was sitting.
The three of them continued drinking and chatting casually as usual.
suddenly--
A divine sense swept across the entire Metal Lifeform! Theodore and Echidna didn't notice it at all, but Luo Ao frowned and whispered, "Another divine sense probe?"
"Divine sense probing?" Theodore was also taken aback.
He then gave a wry smile and shook his head, saying, "These bandits in the Infernal Realm are really annoying!"
They've been traveling for several years now, and the number of times Theodore, a God, has sensed their divine sense probing has been so numerous that they've lost count.
At first, Fiend would fly out to drive away the bandits when faced with this situation, but later everyone got used to it and remained indifferent to such divine probing.
Because once these Infernal Realm bandits realize that a large number of Fiend are present, they will scatter on their own and dare not make a move.
Of course, if they were to be probed by the divine sense of Highgod, the Fiend would take it quite seriously.
"Let's go see what's going on."
Almost instantly, Luo Ao and his two companions vanished from the round table and reappeared by the transparent window. They all looked out through the window—
Several thousand people stood in mid-air, with the leader being an old man with a hooked nose, white eyebrows, and gray hair. The old man looked very thin and frail, but his hands had distinct knuckles and long, slender fingers. His skin was too white, with a cold, gleaming white.
