Ling Han settled down in the Four Seas Palace. Every day, he would be studying great dao, and at the same time would also be concocting alchemical pills.
Shang Zhiwei had very good patience. She had been alive for who knew how many epochs, so she naturally did not mind waiting eight to 10 years, or even several hundred billion years.
She would have this kind of patience naturally because she took Ling Han as her own son/nephew. Otherwise, she would have just killed him and been done with it.
However, it was also not realistic for Ling Han to leave Four Seas City. Shang Zhiwei would definitely not allow him to leave before he handed over Hu Niu.
Thus, he could only cultivate, and improve his skill in alchemy.
In the blink of an eye, seven years had already passed.
Seven years had passed in the outside world, and with the time acceleration effects of the Black Tower, as long as 7,000 years had passed—and the time spent prehending Dao underneath the Reincarnation Tree was even more overwhelmingly long—and added with how Shang Zhiwei doted on him, she would deliver all kind of precious cultivation resources to him, causing his cultivation level to soar all the way to the pinnacle of Earth Soul.
…Ling Han estimated that if he had not had Shang Zhiwei's support, he would only have been able to reach this level in over 1,000 years. Even the Black Tower was not omnipotent.
From this, it was also clear that Shang Zhiwei was really treating him like her own son, which also caused Ling Han a headache. In the future, if Hu Niu were to bee enemies with Shang Zhiwei, he would definitely be on Hu Niu's side, but if he was to step in to deal with Shang Zhiwei, that would be really too ungrateful.
Whatever, he'd put the matter aside for now.
The Roc Palace possessed Yang Soul Ocean, Earth Soul Mountain, and the sort, so considering the Four Seas Palace was its equal, would they also have this kind of Mystery Realm?
Of course they would.
Thus, when Ling Han reached peak-stage Earth Soul, he went to the Heaven Soul Pool to break through.
Merely a month later, he had reached consummate level, and successfully advanced to Heaven Soul Tier, catching up with Hu Niu, the Empress, and the others in cultivation level. And another piece of good news came. The Empress and Hu Niu had subdued the Source Power of heaven and earth at about the same time.
They managed to succeed firstly because their own natural talent in cultivation was extremely high, and they were qualified to subdue Source Powers of heaven and earth, and secondly because the Black Dragon King had used a secret technique to weaken the resistance of the Source Power of heaven and earth, thus allowing the two women to succeed easily.
Otherwise, even a Celestial King would need tens of millions of years to collect a Source Power of heaven and earth. Even with the time acceleration effects of the Black Tower, the two women had only spent more than 10,000 years.
"Ling Han!" Hu Niu pounced into Ling Han's arms, greedily sniffing the scent that belonged solely to him. "Niu missed you to death!"
No slight distraction could take place when collecting a Source Power of heaven and earth. Otherwise, not only would all previous efforts be pletely wasted, the Source Power of heaven and earth would also abandon you and leave. This was always only a one-time opportunity.
Thus, Hu Niu could only suppress her nature earlier. For her, this was really not very easily done.
Ling Han laughed loudly, and spun around three times where he stood while hugging Hu Niu.
The Empress also pounced. She looked down proudly on the world, and would directly express any fondness she felt. She would not pay any regard to the thoughts of others.
Ling Han also embraced the Empress, and felt as if embracing these two women in his arms was like embracing the whole world, and his heart also became incredibly steadfast. He would definitely safeguard this happiness.
"Niu is going out to play!" Hu Niu acted spoiled in Ling Han's arms for a while, and then couldn't help but call out. She had a playful nature, and she had been in seclusion for over 10,000 years continuously this time. She naturally felt suffocated.
Ling Han's expression changed lightly. Shaking his head, he said, "Niu, you won't be able to leave here for the moment."
"Why?" Hu Niu's expression was filled with curiosity.
Ling Han sighed, and after slight hesitation, he told her the truth about how the Roc Palace had already been destroyed by the Four Seas Palace.
"Wa, that despicable old witch, Niu will kill her!" After Hu Niu heard this, she was immediately howling in anger.
Indeed, she had not liked how Long Yuexi would interfere in all her matters, but after so many years, she had naturally developed very strong affections for Long Yuexi, just like how a mischievous granddaughter would feel towards her grandmother.
She was not so concerned about the destruction of the Roc Palace, but Long Yuexi's death still made her extremely furious. She wanted to leap out of the Black Tower, and seek out Shang Zhiwei for vengeance.
Ling Han naturally would not agree. The other party was just worrying if Hu Niu was going to appear. Going out would really mean just delivering herself to her doorstep.
He continuously forted and eased her anxiety. The Empress also "put aside their old grudges
