Chương 6: 06 Now that you've said your piece, get out of here.

Who could possibly destroy such a powerful force as the Sand Mercenary Group in such a short time?

Could it be Queen Medusa?

A thought flashed through Xiao Li's mind.

But then I immediately realized how absurd it was.

Queen Medusa is a peak Douhuang powerhouse and the strongest being in the Tagor Desert.

How could a powerful Dou Huang possibly lay a hand on a mere Rob?

Just like a giant wouldn't deliberately step on an ant.

Moreover, Queen Medusa spent most of her time in the snake-people tribe and rarely went out.

Rob didn't dare to provoke her either.

Xiao Li felt increasingly uneasy as he thought about it.

"Someone come here."

He shouted.

Another mercenary walked in.

"Commander, what are your orders?"

"Go check if Rob has offended anyone recently," Xiao Li said.

"Yes."

The mercenary turned and left.

Xiao Li sat in the chair, a serious look flashing in his eyes.

Although Stone Desert City is not a peaceful place, nothing this big has ever happened before.

The leader of a mercenary group died just like that.

The main force of the entire mercenary group was wiped out.

Moreover, he died under mysterious circumstances, and no one even knows who the murderer was.

This matter is probably not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Xiao Li muttered to himself.

Whoever killed Rob, that person was definitely not weak.

The appearance of such a person near Stone Desert City was not good news for him.

Although the Mo Tie Mercenary Group is powerful, it is still not enough to compete with the strong.

Xiao Li took a deep breath, suppressing the unease in his heart.

He only hoped that the person who killed Rob had no hostility towards the Mo Tie Mercenary Group.

Otherwise, the Desert Iron Mercenary Group might follow in the footsteps of the Sand Mercenary Group.

As Xiao Li thought about this, his palms became sweaty.

……

Lin Tian returned to the snake-people tribe.

The sandstorms of the desert still left their mark on him. He patted the dust off his body and went into his dwelling.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Lin Tian closed his eyes and felt the fighting spirit within his body.

Still at the peak of Samsung's dominance.

By absorbing the fighting spirit of the Sand Mercenary Group's mercenaries, and adding the fighting spirit of Rob, a Grand Master, his strength remained almost unchanged.

That amount of battle qi is far too little for a Dou Wang level fighter.

Lin Tian opened his eyes, feeling a mix of emotions.

Once you reach the Dou Wang level, breaking through becomes very difficult.

Each star upgrade requires a massive accumulation of battle qi.

Ordinary Dou Shi and Great Dou Shi can't absorb more, no matter how much they do.

He needs a stronger opponent.

Battle King, Battle Emperor.

Only a powerhouse of that level can rapidly increase his strength.

Just then, the door was pushed open.

An elderly man with gray hair walked in, wearing a gray robe and with a gloomy face.

The Great Elder of the Snake-People Clan.

The strength of a peak Dou Wang (Battle King).

The elder entered the room and looked coldly at Lin Tian.

A flash of anger crossed her eyes.

Queen Medusa was furious that her strength had regressed to the level of a three-star Dou Huang.

The Serpent People finally had a chance to produce a Dou Zong powerhouse, but this human ruined it.

For the sake of the snake people's long-term plan, Her Majesty the Queen endured her disgust and married this human.

As a result, not only did he fail to break through to the Dou Zong level, his strength actually declined.

How could he not be furious?

"Lin Tian".

The Grand Elder spoke, his voice icy cold.

"What tricks did you play? You actually caused Her Majesty the Queen's strength to decline."

Lin Tian looked at her, his face expressionless.

He didn't speak.

The elder became even angrier when he saw that the man remained silent.

"I'm asking you a question."

Her voice rose a few decibels.

"You have caused Her Majesty the Queen's power to decline; what is your punishment?"

Lin Tian remained silent.

The Grand Elder stared at Lin Tian and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Lin Tian, I'm warning you."

"Don't try any tricks."

"Be a good furnace for the Queen, so that she can break through to the Dou Zong realm."

"This is your only way to survive."

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian glanced at her.

"Are you done talking?"

His voice was flat.

The Grand Elder was taken aback.

"What did you say?"

"Have you finished speaking?" Lin Tian asked calmly.

"Now that you've finished talking, go back."

The Grand Elder's face immediately turned ashen.

As the Grand Elder of the Serpent People, his status was second only to Queen Medusa.

Throughout the entire snake-man tribe, who didn't treat him with utmost respect?

This human dares to speak to him like that.

"You have some nerve."

The Grand Elder said coldly.

"How dare a mere human be so insolent before this old man?"

His fighting spirit surged wildly, and the aura of a Dou Wang was fully released.

"It seems I must teach you a lesson on behalf of Her Majesty the Queen."

The elder raised his hand and struck Lin Tian with a palm.

Lin Tian looked at her, his face expressionless.

He raised his hand and grabbed the elder's wrist.

The Devouring Ancestral Symbol is activated.

The Grand Elder's expression changed instantly.

He discovered that his fighting spirit was constantly draining away.

It was as if something was draining his fighting spirit.

That force was incredibly domineering, and he couldn't stop it at all.

"What happened?"

The Grand Elder looked at Lin Tian in horror.

He tried to pull his hand back.

However, the fighting spirit within his body surged wildly into Lin Tian's body.

In a short period of time, the Grand Elder's strength dropped by two levels of Dou Qi.

Lin Tian felt the surge of power within his body and a smile appeared on his face.

Absorbing the battle qi of a strong person is indeed the fastest way.

The Grand Elder's move directly enabled him to break through to the next two stars.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a Devouring Ancestral Symbol.

The elder broke free from Lin Tian's grasp, took a few steps back, and his face turned deathly pale.

Feeling the power within his body, he was utterly shocked.

"What... what did you do to me?"

He stared at Lin Tian, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Lin Tian looked at her and said calmly.

"Weren't you going to lecture me?"

"Shall we continue?" Lin Tian asked.

……

The Grand Elder walked out of Lin Tian's residence, his face terribly gloomy.

Feeling the battle energy draining from his body, a surge of anger welled up in his heart.

Two stars of strength that I had painstakingly cultivated were just absorbed.

No wonder Her Majesty's power has declined.

This kid's cultivation technique can actually absorb other people's battle qi?

He possesses an innate pure Yang body, coupled with this technique for absorbing battle qi.

Who exactly is this Lin Tian?

……

Lin Tian's residence.

Lin Tian sat cross-legged on the bed, feeling the abundant power within his body.

Five-Star Fighting King.

He muttered to himself.

From the peak of a three-star Dou Wang to a five-star Dou Wang, he improved by a full two stars.

The Grand Elder's Dou Qi, at the level of a Dou Wang, was indeed profound.

At this rate, breaking through to the Dou Huang realm is just around the corner.

Lin Tian opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them.

He needs more strong men.

The elders of the Snake-People tribe are all at the Battle King level.

If he could absorb all their fighting spirit, his strength would surely increase dramatically.

But now is not the time.

The Grand Elder had two stars drained by him, and he will definitely go to Queen Medusa to complain.

Queen Medusa will not kill him for the time being, but she will also not allow him to absorb the fighting spirit of the snake people's powerful members without restraint.

He needs to think of a solution.

Lin Tian snapped out of his thoughts, and a idea flashed through his mind.

Monster Mountain Range.

The largest gathering place of magical beasts in the Gama Empire, containing countless high-level magical beasts.

Fifth-tier magical beasts, sixth-tier magical beasts.

The magic cores and battle qi inside those high-level magical beasts were the best tonics for Lin Tian.

If I could absorb the battle aura of some high-level magical beasts, it might accelerate my strength improvement.

Head to the Warcraft Mountains!

However, before going there, he had to go to Stone Desert City first.

He needs some medicinal herbs to refine some pills to aid his cultivation.

The identity of a sixth-grade alchemist cannot be wasted.

Lin Tian stood up and walked out of the room.
