--- Chapter 129 ---
The next day, Baek Ain woke up with a heavy hangover. He rubbed his temple and looked around, seeing his four lovers sprawling over the king-sized bed.
At first, it was just midday drinking to celebrate the alliance between Behemoth Paradise and Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird Tribe, but Baek Ain would have never thought Yi Xian would pull rare alcohol out of nowhere.
This lovely yet poisonous woman has learned a lot in nearly two months inside the Behemoth Paradise, fully controlling her Woeful Poison and learning the way of Alchemy.
Her talent in dicine is monster-level. Unfortunately, there was no Heavenly Fla suitable for her.
"I just have to make it then." Baek Ain pulled Yi Xian's cheeks, spreading them like marshmallows.
He glanced at Yafei and smiled, "The sa goes for Fei, I guess."
"She picked so hobbies when I was away."
When Baek Ain was sowhat occupied getting Fallen Heart Fla and so other things, Yi Xian and Yafei learned new skills. Yi Xian grasped Alchemy's Way but only made powerful wine and costics so far.
anwhile, Yafei is engrossed in the wonder of Array Formation.
It's due to Baek Ain giving her Dou Technique and Dou Qi thod, which mainly focused on fine control. Yafei's Rotating Silver Thread Technique is compatible with soone who wants to develop and create Array Formation.
Thinking about it, Baek Ain couldn't help but wonder how he should increase Yafei and Yi Xian's cultivation base.
Cai Lin was about to enter a Half-Saint Realm.
And Lan Rou is slightly below Baek Ain, being 3-Star Dou Venerate. She has absorbed her forr body's essence and caught up to his progress.
"I have to contact the Koala and start the Sage Physique Project." Baek Ain firmly decided his next step.
After setting things up in the Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird Tribe, Baek Ain would go to the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe. Cai Lin has to settle a few things there.
"Morning~!" Lan Rou suddenly woke up, leaning for a kiss.
Baek Ain smiled and kissed her, making the silver-haired beauty moan slightly. They were making out with each other for five minutes until three other ladies opened their eyes too.
"Hoho, doing sothing spicy at this early hour." Yi Xian teased while crawling toward Baek Ain.
"It's unfair." Yafei casually remarked, smacking her red lips.
Cai Lin harrumphed and pounced on Baek Ain, "My turn!"
Baek Ain's room soon filled with moans and groans, shaking and only stopping every two hours.
...
...
Baek Ain walked out of the hot spring and sighed in relief. He was pent up and satisfied, to the point anyone could see his skin glowing.
The sa goes for his four lovers. They have gone, wandering around the Sun-Swallowing Moon Island a few minutes ago.
"Aih, they left their poor man alone here." Baek Ain shook his head bitterly as he accepted his fate. Won have their needs, after all.
Wearing so new clothes, Baek Ain stepped out of his guest house and walked around to find Xue Rongrong or Old Xue. A few minutes later, he arrived at the Ancestral Hall and saw countless youths training in Dawnbreak Mystic Art under the guidance of Old Xue.
"We greet Lord Ain!" They kneeled upon sensing Baek Ain's presence.
Baek Ain diminished them by waving his hand and calling Old Xue to his side.
"Do you need sothing, My Lord?" Old Xue asked with expectation. "I'll do anything you wish."
Baek Ain shook his head and returned, "I want to visit the Nether Secret Realm."
The Nether Secret Realm is the origin nest of the Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird, their ancestor was birthed there and received heavenly wisdom, but that wisdom was "quickly." taken away.
It was a shaful mont for the tribe. That's why Heaven doesn't favor them anymore. And Baek Ain could only wonder what kind of horrible thing their ancestor did with the heavenly wisdom.
Anyway, the Nether Secret Realm doesn't just contain Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird's Origin Nest, but also a spring of fire that the tribe used to baptize its mbers and nether pinewood that bore fruits with incredible vitality, allowing anyone who eats it to recover as long as there was a breath in their bodies.
It explains how the Sun-Swallowing Nether Bird possessed an affinity toward Fire and Wood Elents. The Nether Secret Realm is truly their foundation, making them strong enough to this very point.
But Baek Ain has a different goal for now. He wanted to investigate sothing.
"Of course, you can enter the Nether Secret Realm, My Lord." Old Xue smiled happily. "Just go to the tallest building on the Sun-Swallowing Moon Island."
"There, you can find the Grand Elder. She can open the Secret Realm and escort you inside."
"Okay, thanks." Baek Ain nodded, disappearing from Old Xue's sight.
Even though Baek Ain has long gone, Old Xue bowed respectfully and said, "It's my pleasure to help you, My Lord."
Baek Ain teleported with his adequate control over Spatial Strength and kicked the air, leaping toward the highest building on the island. He soon arrived at a normal-looking tower made of brown bricks invaded by green vines.
Looking at the worn-out wooden door, Baek Ain sighed and walked to knock it a few tis. Now that Baek Ain thought about it, the Grand Elder wasn't at the gathering yesterday.
The door opened and revealed an elderly in her late sixties. Her face is "inherently." plastered with a frown, but her fiery purple eyes glowed dimly.
"Ah, My Lord. Sorry for not being able to welco you yesterday." She hardly bowed, trembling slightly.
Baek Ain observed her and comnted, "Your health isn't good."
The Grand Elder smiled helplessly and replied, "Yes."
"Even though a Magical Beast like I am, blessed with longevity, fate always swayed us. Oh, well. I've been living in this world for too long."
"This old woman now focuses all her attention on protecting the tribe."
Baek Ain was sowhat amused by her statent and asked, "Do you have no drive or wish anymore?"
The Grand Elder rely clicked her tongue and answered, "Bah, that's for young people. I have a fair share of my monts already."
"I left everything to my daughter, and she's strong enough to carry my will."
"Your daughter?"
"Have you not t her, My Lord?"
"I t her?"
"Mm, Hmm. Yes, my daughter escorted you to the tribe, no? My Little Rongrong."
"She's your daughter!" Baek Ain was speechless.
The Grand Elder chuckled and returned, "Where do you think her beauty cos from?" Her voice is "literally." filled with brimming confidence.
...
...
The Grand Elder led Baek Ain to the underground level of her tower as she humd, opening a secret passage.
They arrived at the stabilized Wormhole and jumped in, reaching a flying island in the middle of the void. The sun was hanging in the sky, but the island's temperature was cold.
Baek Ain was "imdiately." greeted by the sight of a massive volcanic mountain flowing down a river of lava. And not far away, a towering tree stood with spurting vines connected into bulb-shaped fruits.
Weirdly, the tree has no leaves but collective branches similar to that of roots. It makes the tree look upside down.
The Grand Elder introduced a deep history of the Nether Secret Realm, allowing Baek Ain to grasp the situation more. As they walked around the floating island, she explained how the River of Fire and Rootless Nether Tree birthed by the upper realm, was dragged into this void.
'So, my guess is correct. There was a connection between this tribe and the Great Thousand World.' Baek Ain closed his eyes, thinking about sothing.
'The Goddess didn't create my background half-assedly, huh?'
[Ding! You have discovered a fateful location]
[Do you want to sign in to Nine Netherworld Cetery?]
Baek Ain was stunned, "Yes."
