Chapter 493: The Enhancement of the Evil God's Demon Eyes
"The Prince of the Deep Sea Xuanyao Clan, is this all?" Lin Langtian looked at Ao Xuan, a faint indifference showing on his face.
Having repeatedly defeated Elder Mo Sha, who was at the peak of the Death Profound Realm, and even severely wounding Di Yuanzi with the power of his bloodline link, Lin Langtian had grown accustomed to facing great dangers.
Thus, although Ao Xuan ranked among the younger generation of the Chaos Sea, Lin Langtian didn't think highly of him.
Hearing Lin Langtian's words, Ao Xuan's face instantly darkened. He was an immensely honorable figure, and even his bloodline could rival the true dragon clan. He never expected to be put at a disadvantage by a young human.
"Kid, you're looking for death!" Ao Xuan's dragon-like eyes, filled with oppressive power, glared at Lin Langtian with a cold, menacing look.
"Whether I'm looking for death or not doesn't need to be said aloud. At least, this thing is in my hands now," Lin Langtian replied with a cold smile, lifting the 'Energy Crystal' in his hand.
As his words fell, a devouring power suddenly erupted from his palm. The energy crystal, glowing with black light, immediately turned into an overwhelming and pure wave of energy that surged into Lin Langtian's body like a tidal wave.
Hiss
As Lin Langtian absorbed the power from the crystal, energy mist erupted from his body, and all his body hairs stood on end.
But Lin Langtian paid no mind to this. His devouring power quickly surged through him, consuming all the immense energy flooding into his body.
If an ordinary person were to absorb the energy of this 'Energy Crystal', they would need a quiet place to slowly refine it.
However, with the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, Lin Langtian didn't need such trouble. The devouring power allowed him to quickly convert all incoming energy into his own.
Squeak
As the immense energy within his body was gradually consumed, Lin Langtian could vaguely feel his muscles and cells joyously absorbing the energy, greedily growing stronger with each passing moment.
Buzz
Just as the powerful energy aura filled Lin Langtian's body, he suddenly felt a wave of extremely evil demonic energy shoot out from the 'Energy Crystal', surging along his meridians straight toward his forehead.
At the center of his forehead lay the 'Evil God's Demon Eyes.' Lin Langtian had never forgotten this powerful skill, though due to its mysterious nature, he had never fully mastered it.
Still, Lin Langtian vaguely sensed that there was more potential to unlock in the Evil God's Demon Eyes. He just hadn't found the right method to fully explore it.
But now, it seemed that the Evil God's Demon Eyes might be undergoing some change.
Meanwhile, the 'Evil God's Demon Eyes' hidden in his forehead began to absorb this evil demonic power, and the tightly shut black eye in the center of his forehead started to flicker with demonic light.
Lin Langtian could feel that, under the influence of the evil demonic energy, the 'Evil God's Demon Eyes' seemed to be significantly enhanced.
Demonic light flickered in the 'Evil Eye', but in the end, the tightly closed eye did not open. It seemed that the power of just one Energy Crystal was not enough to fully enhance the Evil God's Demon Eyes.
Realizing this, Lin Langtian couldn't help but sigh with some regret. Slowly, the energy mist surrounding him began to dissipate.
Thanks to the power of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, he had absorbed the power of the Energy Crystal in such a short amount of time.
"You... You actually absorbed the Energy Crystal?!"
Ao Xuan looked at this scene, a trace of shock crossing his cold face. He had been watching Lin Langtian's reckless actions from a distance. After all, the Energy Crystal contained some very strange and evil energy.
But he never expected that, in just a few minutes, Lin Langtian had completely absorbed the Energy Crystal...
"If your eyes aren't blind, you should already know what happened…" Lin Langtian sneered with a hint of amusement, his mouth curling into a smirk.
Now that he had absorbed the Energy Crystal, if Ao Xuan wanted it, he'd have to swallow him alive first.
Ao Xuan's dragon-like eyes flashed with anger. Not only had he failed to seize the Energy Crystal, but he had also been humiliated by Lin Langtian's sharp tongue. His pride couldn't take it, and the fury in his heart erupted like a volcano.
His dragon might pressed down heavily.
Whoosh!
Just as Ao Xuan was about to take action, the previously calm Energy Lake suddenly rippled again.
Then, another Energy Crystal wrapped in black light slowly rose from the lake, right before the astonished eyes of Lin Langtian and Ao Xuan.
Lin Langtian stared at this scene in surprise, then his gaze suddenly became fiery. However, this time, his eyes weren't on the Energy Crystal but rather on the depths of the Energy Lake.
It seemed that the real mystery lay beneath.
Squeak!
A vortex formed in the Energy Lake, and another black light orb slowly floated up. It was yet another Energy Crystal!
Seeing this, Liu Dasan and the three Deep Sea Xuanyao Clan Jiao Longs stopped fighting and stared blankly at the scene. They clearly didn't expect another Energy Crystal to rise from the lake.
Ao Xuan's moment of shock lasted only a moment before he leaped forward and quickly seized the Energy Crystal.
Lin Langtian didn't care about Ao Xuan's action. His gaze remained fixed on the depths of the Energy Lake, a thoughtful expression flashing in his eyes.
There was something hidden here...
As Lin Langtian pondered, several wind-breaking sounds came from behind him. Figures shot toward him like rainbow lights—powerful beings rushing to join the scene.
As these figures appeared, their eyes immediately locked onto the Energy Crystal in Ao Xuan's hand, and their expressions filled with greed.
However, they didn't take action. After all, Ao Xuan's strength and background were not something they could easily provoke.
"Energy Crystal!"
As more people arrived, someone suddenly shouted with excitement. A black light orb slowly appeared in the vortex of the lake.
The moment the light orb appeared, the eyes of the onlookers widened. Bloodshot veins began to crawl up their eyeballs, and immense energy erupted in unison.
The sound of wind breaking filled the air as dozens of figures surged toward the newly appearing Energy Crystal.
The clash was fierce, with waves of energy crashing as blood splattered and people fought savagely.
The fighting was brutal. People spat blood, their hair disheveled, their faces filled with unwillingness—eyes burning with the desperation of gamblers who had lost everything.
Lin Langtian coldly observed the battle. It didn't last long, and after a few minutes, the result was clear: a strong warrior at the small completion of the Death Profound Realm grabbed the Energy Crystal, laughing wildly.
Though the warrior was strong, he had taken serious injuries during the fight, his aura unstable, revealing the ruthlessness of the other combatants.
Pop!
As the victorious warrior laughed in the air, the Energy Lake began to ripple once more.
Two vortices appeared at the same time, and two Energy Crystals emerged, glowing brightly.
The laughing stopped abruptly as the warrior gaped at the newly appeared Energy Crystals. He didn't know what to make of the situation.
It seemed impossible that such rare Energy Crystals would appear so frequently in this place.
Boom!
The reappearance of the two Energy Crystals caused another uproar, with people exchanging puzzled glances. No one dared to reach for them.
They seemed bewildered by the situation.
"Oh, looks like there's something special beneath the Energy Lake..."
This bizarre scene caused Ao Xuan to abandon his previous grudge with Lin Langtian. He fixed his eyes on the lake, his gaze filled with meaning.
"Follow me!"
Lin Langtian's thoughts were confirmed, and he shouted in a low voice.
As soon as his voice fell, flames engulfed his body, and without hesitation, he charged into the Energy Lake.
At the same time, Ao Xuan, surrounded by white light, turned into a dragon-like figure and dove into the lake after him.
Plop! Plop!
After them, Mu Lingshan, Liu Dasan, and the other powerful warriors from the Deep Sea Xuanyao Clan followed suit, leaping into the Energy Lake without hesitation.
"The treasure is at the bottom of the lake!"
At this moment, the surrounding strong warriors snapped out of their daze. Greed shone in their eyes as they quickly followed, diving into the lake.
The previously calm Energy Lake suddenly became lively in an instant.
Lin Langtian paid little attention to all this. Since the secret of the Energy Lake was no longer hidden, he would quickly figure out what lay beneath and seize it.
Flames surrounded Lin Langtian's body as he plunged into the lake, his speed reaching its maximum as he raced toward the lake's depths.
He wanted to see what mysteries lay beneath the lake, especially why the Energy Crystals kept appearing.
Hiss!
Lin Langtian's figure moved swiftly through the lake, which was not made of water but rather viscous energy material.
At the lake's bottom, numerous dense energies moved like wriggling creatures. Lin Langtian could sense a powerful fluctuation emanating from them.
The flames enveloping his body shielded him from the energy's pressure, allowing him to move smoothly at the bottom of the lake.
Behind him, Mu Lingshan, Liu Dasan, and others followed closely, while many figures from all sides continued their pursuit.
It was clear that everyone knew the true mystery lay beneath the Energy Lake...
Lin Langtian cast a glance behind him, frowning slightly, then shook his head helplessly. Since this situation couldn't be avoided, he would just see who was more capable.
His focus returned to the lake's depths, and as he continued diving, he began to realize just how vast the lake was.
The terrain beneath the lake was incredibly unusual—black giant rocks stood all around, forming jagged reefs with no visible end.
Lin Langtian followed the direction of the rocks, his sharp gaze sweeping the area. After some time, his heart stirred, and he suddenly looked down, where a powerful energy fluctuation suddenly erupted.
In his line of sight, a black vortex began to form at the lake's bottom, and at the center of the vortex, another black light orb slowly floated upward. Inside it was yet another Energy Crystal.
Whoosh!
Lin Langtian's figure shot forward, and after a brief moment, he froze. His face was filled with shock as he looked down.
Below, a massive black ravine extended endlessly, leading deep underground.
Along the ravine's walls were countless stone caves, and through his keen vision, Lin Langtian could see figures sitting inside them. But these figures lacked vitality.
The bodies were emaciated, covered in pitch-black color, with pure energy seeping from every inch of their skin.
These bodies had been transformed into dried corpses, almost entirely made of pure energy, after years of sitting in meditation.
Lin Langtian's gaze shifted to the corpses' abdomens, where he could vaguely see a faint thread of evil black energy. This dark energy was almost entirely suppressed by the pure energy.
It seemed that these Energy Crystals were formed from the meditation of these powerful beings. No wonder they contained such immense energy and demonic power...
Feeling shocked, Lin Langtian had a sudden thought.
With so many Energy Crystals, perhaps he could fully enhance the Evil God's Demon Eyes...
