Yuanchu and Yuanxin did not stay for long.
After they left, Lin Luo and Lin Meng'er began to focus on their cultivation.
In the era of great calamity, nothing would put people at ease more than strength.
With the millions of spirit stones that the dozens of warriors had sent over, Lin Luo had an abundance of spirit stones even after he repaid his debt.
Before focusing on his cultivation, Lin Luo brought Lin Meng'er for a walk.
The first place Lin Luo went to was the library in the city.
The city had a seven-story library, and every warrior could enter by swiping their identity card.
The system would determine the level of access each person could enter based on their strength and status.
After entering the library pavilion, Lin Luo swiped his identity card.
"Welcome, brother. You can read all the books from the first to the seventh floor."
Everyone in the library hall and on the first floor who heard the sound of the machine looked at Lin Luo.
Lin Luo was stunned.
Seventh floor?
With his identity as an intermediate Martial Master and the Zhang family's guest elder, he should only be able to enter the third floor.
It seemed that the news of him being able to attract heavenly lightning had spread to the higher-ups, who had given him the authority.
Lin Luo licked his lips and decisively brought Lin Meng'er up to the seventh floor.
The seventh floor was related to cultivation and some secrets that were almost unknown to others.
The books here recorded all the top experiences and introductions about cultivation.
Lin Luo's understanding of this area was still too little. Since it was not good for him to acknowledge a master, it would be best to go to the library pavilion to check it out himself.
Lin Luo purposefully flipped through a few books.
"Vitality strengthening pill. Consume it together with the gallbladder of the dense green leaf snake. It can stabilize one's foundation and reduce the troubles of bottlenecks. If you consume it at the beginning of your cultivation, you will not encounter any bottlenecks during the cultivation of the first realm."
Lin Luo's eyes lit up. Although he didn't need it, Meng'er hadn't started cultivating yet, so it could be used!
He firmly memorized the contents of this paragraph.
He also checked on what he needed to pay attention to during cultivation. This would be especially helpful for cultivation without causing any harmful effects.
Most were top-grade pills, such as meridian cleansing, meridian widening, and so on.
Most elixirs had poison; taking too many of them would cause dependence and other side effects. Elixirs without any side effects, however, were considered top-notch elixirs.
Aside from that, these pills had to be taken with some high-grade exotic beasts or plants, which were extremely difficult to find.
Lin Luo noted all this and then went down to the third floor.
He also wanted to look up information regarding the era of great calamity and the mutated beasts.
There were now nine great forces among the exotic beasts, which meant there were nine King-level exotic beasts.
They were Godzilla, Pterosaur, Abyss Tiger, White Owl, Giant Sand Sea Crocodile, Human-Faced Spider, Hydra, Nine-Tailed Arctic Fox, and Undead Worm.
They occupied the entire world's territory, leaving only a tiny a breathing space for humans in the eastern part of the original Asia.
The three core cities of humanity were among the nine superpowers of the ultra-beasts. Although they occupied quite a large area and could accommodate two hundred million people, they were pitifully small compared to the territory these beasts occupied.
When Lin Luo read this, he almost dropped the book.
200 million?
Only 200 million people were left?
And this was the result of humans recuperating for hundreds of years.
He looked at the map before him and gulped. "System, don't you feel that these strange beasts seem to be rearing humans in the middle?"
The sky was the White Owl's territory. It occupied the sky, so humans had not dared to create anything that could fly in the sky.
Apart from the scattered territories of the exotic beasts surrounding the three core cities, the vast desert was in the west, which was Hydra's territory.
The northwest corner was Godzilla's territory, while the dense forest in the southwest corner was the Abyss Tiger's territory.
The snowy land to the north of the core city was the territory of the Nine-Tailed Arctic Fox, and the mountains to the northeast were the territory of the Pterosaur.
To the east was the Sand Sea Giant Crocodile, to the southeast was the Undead Worm, and to the south was the Human-Faced Spider.
The nine forces surrounded the three human cities from eight directions and the sky.
Lin Luo shuddered. He didn't believe that the higher-ups didn't notice.
However, so what if they found out?
F*ck!
Lin Luo really wanted to curse.
He cursed as he put the book back, wondering if he could attract a huge heavenly lightning when he reached the King or Legendary levels.
A bolt of heavenly lightning to kill a King-tier beast...
[In theory, yes. However, with just one of these heavenly lightning bolts, the host will be sucked dry.]
The system's voice suddenly resounded.
Lin Luo suddenly froze. "System, why did you send me here back then?"
His mind was silent.
After that, no matter how Lin Luo asked, the system didn't reply.
Good gracious!
So, it wasn't that he was lucky to have survived but that the system had brought him here on purpose?
Lin Luo was shocked!
There must be some other purpose behind the system.
In other words, the system in his mind could not be trusted entirely.
Just as Lin Luo had this thought, the system, which had been playing dead, finally said a few words.
[Don't worry. The system won't harm you. Once you die, the system won't be able to survive.]
Lin Luo understood. They were both in the same boat. If he died, the system would die too.
"Phew!"
Thank goodness. In this case, this stupid system could still be trusted.
"Brother, are you done?"
Lin Meng'er came over to look for Lin Luo and saw him standing in front of the bookshelf in a daze.
"I'm done."
Lin Luo returned to his senses and left the library with Lin Meng'er.
"Let's go to the auction house."
Lin Luo wanted to see if there were any vitality-strengthening pills.
"Foundation fortifying pill?"
The person who received Lin Luo was an old man. When he heard that Lin Luo was looking for this pill, he was shocked.
"I do, but Mr. Lin, what will you do with these pills?"
The old man saw Lin Meng 'er beside Lin Luo and suddenly realized. is it for this little girl? "
"Aiya! Mister Lin, although the vitality-strengthening pill is very effective during cultivation, it needs to be paired with the gallbladder of the dense green leaf snake! Otherwise, this foundation-fortifying pill would be an ordinary pill to strengthen one's foundation.
"Rather than spending so much money to buy foundation fortifying pills, it's better to buy others."
Lin Luo frowned. there's no need. I only need the vitality-strengthening pill. The rest of the pills don't have the effect of not being affected by the bottleneck of the first stage.
"But that would require the gallbladder of a dense green leaf snake as its primer. No one has seen this snake for the past two hundred years!"
Owing to this, there were basically no alchemists who would refine this pill because the medicinal herbs used were expensive and difficult to refine, so few would buy it.
After all, without the green leaf snake's gallbladder, who would use the foundation fortifying pill?
Lin Luo didn't change his mind. I want this.
His sister had to use the best.
