--- Chapter 92 ---
"You want to do What?!" Lan Guan felt a numbness spread on her face after listening to Baek Ain's way of resolving the Spatial Rift.
Spatial Rift is a natural occurrence.
Many people tried to find a thod to close it for centuries, but even people with Dou Venerate's strength said it was such a hassle.
It's possible to fix Spatial Rift, which only massive clans(or factions) on the Central Plains can do. After all, they possessed powerful Dou Venerates and above.
However, for a re Dou Ancestor who just started a path of Spatial Strength, Spatial Rift is a terrifying force that could rip them apart into nothing but blood mist.
It is simply a suicide.
No, it is courting death.
"Don't give that face." Baek Ain rolled his eyes. "You barely knew anything about ."
"How could you know if you never tried?"
Yafei giggled and comnted, "Let him be, Senior Guan."
"He could handle it."
"You..." Lan Guan watched Lan Rou have the sa laid-back expression as Yafei, feeling disbelief at their trust in this man.
Lan Guan knew the mysterious man before her was probably the most talented person she ever t in her last century. Not only was his cultivation realm close to her, but he also mastered intent.
Not to ntion this fellow killed the Old Ground Demon Ghost when being a 6-Star Dou Emperor. That was months ago, and many people don't trust such ridiculous news, Lan Guan included.
It's not like Lan Guan doesn't trust Baek Ain, as she has never seen him fight seriously.
Lan Guan glanced at Lan Rou and saw a brimming confidence in her gray-colored eyes, causing the aged cultivator to sigh.
"Senior, want to make a bet with ?" Yi Xian suddenly proposed with a small smile.
"Bet?"
"Yup, Bet."
Yi Xian winked at Baek Ain and continued, "I bet Ain could resolve the Spatial Rift. If he can't do it, I'll give you a precious 6-Tier Pill called a Rejuvenation Pill."
"Of course, if you lose... I want sothing of a similar value."
When she heard Yi Xian emphasizing the loss part, Lan Guan huffed and responded sternly, "Hmph! You better prepare that 6-Tier Pill in a gift box soon."
"As for sothing of a similar value. I'll give you one of my treasured wines at Fallen Orchid Sect."
'You're really that addicted, huh?' Baek Ain and his lovers thought while giving Lan Guan a strange look.
It's okay to drink alcohol, but please do it in moderation.
Lan Guan clearly didn't understand that because she had been chugging several jugs of wine in the last six hours. Weirdly, she's not drunk or speaking gibberish.
Not giving Lan Guan a chance to take her words back, Yi Xian smiled and said, "Then the bet is officially set."
"Hehe, darling~! Do your best~!!" Yi Xian cheered for Baek Ain, making Lan Guan's mouth twitch in annoyance.
A wry smile appeared on Baek Ain's face because Yi Xian would only do sothing like this when she was confident. Fortunately, she has such good backing in the form of a lover.
Shaking his head, Baek Ain stepped out of the cave they had just made and used Super Jump to leap into the sky. He gazed into the massive typhoon created and enhanced by the Spatial Rift.
"Alicia, I'd be able to lessen the damage with your thod, right?." Baek Ain uttered while approaching the typhoon.
[Yes, imdiately broke through into the center of the storm. You should be able to retain your physique despite so injuries and temper it with wild Spatial Strength] Alicia gave him the affirmation.
Baek Ain stopped a few ters from the typhoon and reached for it with his left hand. A wild force of Spatial Strength made contact with his skin and tore it slightly.
"Shit!" He cursed inwardly.
[I told you already] Alicia comnted as a matter of fact.
[Even with your superior physique, such a thing as wild Spatial Strength is still dangerous]
"I know, I know." Baek Ain waved his hand casually.
"I'm just testing the water, okay? Sheesh, Stop being too harsh on ."
[...] If Alicia could roll her eyes, she would do it now.
Baek Ain employed Jade-like Enhancent to his whole body and ran the Unrecorded Body Refining Technique, causing Dou Qi to burst rapidly inside his muscle.
He reached the typhoon for the second ti and saw the violent wind cause so scratches on his skin. He smiled and stacked Super Jump up to one hundred tis and coated his hand with blade intent, tearing through the outer layer of the typhoon.
SWOOSH! BOOM!
As if he was getting swallowed, Baek Ain closed his eyes and trusted Sixth Sense to find the center of this place.
Hours seemingly have passed, but when Baek Ain opened his eyes, only a few minutes parted.
Baek Ain hovered in the eye of the storm and noticed an adult palm-sized hole below him, sucking the surrounding air and Dou Qi.
[That's the Spatial Rift] Alicia inford him.
[You were lucky it was an adult palm-sized tear because anything above that would be too much for you, Host]
Baek Ain chuckled and recited the Record of Burning World in his head, causing a golden fla to burst from his skin. He slowly sank toward the Spatial Rift and endured the extre pressure.
Even Baek Ain's Pain Resistance(SS) was rendered useless against it.
Baek Ain regulated his breathing and endured the pain, using every inch of his body to absorb "Spatial Strength." inside this Spatial Rift.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
Each second feels like an hour, but Baek Ain persists as his flesh and bones were "literally." torn into mush and dust.
[The Unrecorded Body Refining Technique has leveled up]
[Healing Factor(S) activated]
Several notifications about Baek Ain's skills upgrade echoed in his head, but he didn't care about those. He solely focused on absorbing "Spatial Strength." and stored it inside his body.
Following Alicia's instructions, Baek Ain guided the "Spatial Strength." into every fiber of his body. It was a delicate operation and needed extre precision because one mistake would cause his body to collapse.
"This is the right ti to consu this..."
"I want to save this for my Dou Venerate Realm's breakthrough. But whatever, I could absorb it just fine now."
A drop of bright purple blood appeared out of thin air. It was incredibly mysterious, with rich energy and runes swimming inside it.
Yes, Baek Ain obtained this from his quest's reward.
An S-Grade Divine Beast's Blood.
[Na: Ashen-Eyed Behemoth's Blood]
[Type: Essence Blood]
[Grade: S ]
[Description: Ashen-Eyed Behemoth is a variant of Athyst Behemoth, a Divine Beast from a faraway universe. This Behemoth is less bloodthirsty than other behemoths, but that doesn't an it is weak because its na isn't just a na. Ashen-Eyed Behemoth is a beast with unique pupils that restrict Ti and Space]
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOARR!!!
A beastly roar reverberated from the eye of the storm and spread for over ten miles, causing a change in the sky. Even the Mighty Rajang's Thunder Soul couldn't help but tremble instinctively.
All of a sudden, the gloomy blue sky becos crimson red. Of course, to the scope of ten miles only.
Fortunately, this area is barren, so only Baek Ain and his companions could witness such a scene.
Baek Ain grabbed the drop of purple blood with both hands, feeling the runes crawl onto his skin. "Hmm?" He noticed the physical changes from the 100 Mimicry Technique had declined, returning him to his forr appearance.
He has returned to a handso young man with neck-length white hair, a sowhat playful face, and a slim yet compact build. Anyway, the face mask and his clothes have reduced to dust when contacting the Spatial Rift hours ago.
Yes, he's butt-naked now.
Thud!
An extre pulse suddenly invaded Baek Ain's heart.
BAM!
All of his skin crumbled like sand.
Crack!
All of his bones shattered into dust.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHHHHHHHH!!!" Baek Ain let out a painful roar, but he didn't let such a pain wash his mind.
He kept resisting the influence of the Divine Beast's blood, absorbing it with all his will.
[Ding! Cursed Left-Eye reacted with Ashen-Eyed Behemoth's Blood]
[Ding! Cinder's Eyes have evolved into an unknown path]
"My lord!"
"My lord!"
"My lord!"
"Help Him! Use our body as his shield and supplent his body with our gifted flesh and blood!" All the parasites in Baek Ain's body flowed out and ford a cocoon around him.
It was a grotesque-looking cocoon with pulsating flesh and bones scattered around it.
Baek Ain was conscious all this ti, smiling at his creation's actions.
Far from the bizarre nature change, Lan Guan opened her mouth and shouted, "WHAT THE FUCK?!"
"What the fuck is that brat doing??!"
"What kind of heavenly treasure did he possess to cause such a change in nature? Just look at that nacing crimson sky. Heaven even despised him for so reason!!"
Lan Rou, Yafei, and Yi Xian naturally glanced at each other and giggled helplessly.
That's our man, they thought.
As hours passed, the typhoon beca smaller and smaller before finally shrinking to a small house size.
Lan Guan blinked her eyes and saw a silhouette inside the typhoon, hovering in the air motionlessly.
"Ain?" She frowned slightly. Is it just her, or has Baek Ain beco shorter than before?
Even though the difference wasn't much compared to before, it was still noticeable.
The typhoon disappeared and revealed a naked young man. He's around 6'2 feet or 187 centiters with dashing neck-length white hair and so black spots. His face is that of a handso yet composed master of humble origin.
And His physique is incredibly lean yet toned as if heaven and earth sculpted it.
Even Lan Guan drooled slightly upon the sight of it.
Lan Guan swallowed hard and looked down at the dangling beast between Baek Ain's legs. Her eyes widened in shock, which caused sothing to awaken and wants to reach for it.
Unfortunately, she was a few kiloters away and could only imagine by grasping air.
"S-So Big, how could it be so big~?!" She shouted frustratedly.
