Chapter 662: Breaking Through the Barricade of the Advanced Level

Translated by XephiZ

The hall inside the palace tomb…

The strange lotus stood in the same spot in silence. It was impossible to tell how long it had lasted, as it seemed like neither time nor the vicissitudes of life had done anything to it. It simply stood there emitting its fragrance for eternity!

However, as long as it was still alive, the people of the entire inner city would face destruction. The hearts of the people observing the situation were burning with anxiety!

“Let me have a try,” Mo Fan said to Zhang Xiaohou.

“It’s not going to work. There’s no way our strength is enough to destroy this thing,” Fang Gu shook his head dishearteningly.

“How do you know if you don’t try?” Mo Fan grabbed the lotus with a single hand.

He held the Eternal Lotus firmly in his hand. Since the Little Loach Pendant was rather unique, he did not want to show it to anyone. After a slight hesitation, he simply walked toward a blind corner in the hall.

Liu Ru, Fang Gu, Su Xiaoluo and Zhang Xiaohou looked after Mo Fan in confusion. They had no idea where Mo Fan was bringing the lotus to.

Similarly, Han Ji, Yao Nan, Zuo Feng, Du Xiao, Ling Xi and the others were confused when they saw Mo Fan walking out of the visible range of the copper mirror.

Did the kid think he could break a puzzle that had existed over two thousand years by simply throwing the lotus away?

Mo Fan slowly took out the Little Loach Pendant as he reached the corner.

The Little Loach Pendant was humming as actively as a vibrator. It was a little monster that was about to lunge out from the layer of rust.

“Take it, take it, you better digest the lotus!” Mo Fan placed the lotus in front of Little Loach impatiently.

Little Loach had the ability to absorb stuff. As soon as the lotus was put in front of it, it immediately turned into a ray of light, which was gradually absorbed into the Little Loach Pendant.

Little Loach finally stopped vibrating after eating the lotus. However, the pendant began to emit an unbelievable glow!

The glow almost lit up the entire hall. The place turned a lot brighter all of a sudden…

Mo Fan stared at the Little Loach Pendant in surprise, then quickly went in to observe the world inside the Little Loach Pendant after a few seconds.

The Nether River formed with the Underground Holy Spring was flowing as quietly as usual. Lots of Soul Remnants were floating on it, but now the strange lotus was among them. It was emitting rings of glowing ripples across the surface of the river.

“What the heck is going on?” Mo Fan’s thoughts were full of question marks. He could not understand why the Little Loach Pendant had placed the Eternal Lotus in the Nether River.

However, a few moments later, Mo Fan discovered that one of the petals on the Eternal Lotus had begun to wilt!

The flower was wilting; the tender leaves first turned yellow, before gradually turning black as it fully wilted!

The second petal started to wilt, following the first.

The process was quite time-consuming, but Mo Fan stared at the wilting petals with his full attention. He was worried that the petals would grow back again. Mo Fan did try to burn the flower with fire when he was walking, but the flower soon recovered, and looked even livelier than before.

After observing the flower for a while, the fourth petal on the flower had wilted, but there was no sign of the wilted petals coming back to life! The flower was dying!

“Nice job!”

Mo Fan was overjoyed. It turned out that the Nether River was the lotus’ nemesis. Speaking of which, how poisonous exactly was the water in the Nether River, that even the unkillable lotus could not withstand it?

As the Little Loach crazily drank in the energy of the lotus, Mo Fan shockingly discovered that the space in the Pendant suddenly grew a lot more spacious. Even the Nether River was wider, with rolling tides. It looked significantly livelier than before!

“A level up?” Mo Fan glanced around the space inside the Little Loach Pendant in disbelief.

Ever since Little Loach drank the Underground Holy Spring, it had no longer showed any interest in Servant-class or the Warrior-level Soul Essences, giving them all to Mo Fan to strengthen his Stars. The Pendant, which would initially take in any source of energy to improve itself, now had a high standard. It would only choose the sources that suited its tastes!

Little Loach finally found a food that suited its standards when it discovered the lotus. It had been trembling in excitement ever since it had detected the presence of the lotus.

Mo Fan did not really have high expectations when he gave the lotus to the Little Loach Pendant. After all, the Pendant had stopped growing after evolving into a top-tier Magic Tool, so Mo Fan’s cultivation speed had remained the same for quite some time. It was not as efficient as it used to be since he now had four Elements. His cultivation would only improve rapidly when he used the Three Step Tower.

For a long time, Mo Fan was hoping that the Little Loach Pendant could evolve further, but it lacked appetite even when he fed it a Warrior-level Soul Essence worth over twenty million RMB. What else could Mo Fan feed it?

The Little Loach Pendant finally found a food that it was interested in. It simply gulped down the strange lotus with a single bite.

On top of that, it finally leveled up, as he hoped!

Damn it, how many years had it been since its last level up? Mo Fan almost burst into tears when he saw the glowing pendant, as it felt like his effort in nurturing Little Loach over the years had finally paid off!

The feedback from the Little Loach Pendant was another reason he was overwhelmed with excitement. He remembered the previous time when the Little Loach Pendant had released an overwhelming energy; it had helped him break through the threshold of the Basic Level after it consumed the Underground Holy Spring, helping him to achieve the Intermediate Level!

Yao Nan had also mentioned recently that Mo Fan’s Fire Element had already reached its limit. What he needed was a strong energy, pushing him into the Advanced Level.

In terms of energy, nothing was as perfect as the energy provided by Little Loach. Mo Fan was overjoyed because he could already sense waves of formidable energy being transferred to him from the world inside the Pendant!

The small lotus seemed to contain an endless supply of mysterious power. As Little Loach was digesting it, a burst of energy rushed into Mo Fan’s Spiritual World!

Mo Fan was no amateur, he quickly took hold of the once-in-a-blue moon opportunity and directed the energy provided by Little Loach into his Fire Nebula.

His Fire Nebula had the highest chance of leveling up now. Mo Fan placed his full attention on the process as he proceeded to try and break through the fortress surrounding the Nebula and further expand the Fire Nebula!

“More, more, it’s not enough!” mumbled Mo Fan.

The barrier surrounding the Nebula was too way too thick and tall. He needed to excite the forty-nine Stars a little more so they could ram the walls down in one go, allowing them to roam in the bigger world out there. He needed more energy!

Because he had four Elements, his soul was able to withstand multiple times the pressure that other Magicians could endure.

It was unlikely that the opportunity would return once it was lost. The gap between the Intermediate Level and Advanced Level was a huge chasm. As the saying went, nothing ventured, nothing gained! If he had not risked his life and jumped into the Dark Abyss searching for the Qin Emperor’s tomb, he would not have obtained the rare Eternal Lotus…
