After witnessing the white lion's fondness for demon crystals, everyone willingly handed over the ones they had obtained. Since the demon crystals had little use for them but were needed by the white lion, it only made sense to give them all to it. Baili Hongzhuang expressed her gratitude for their kindness but didn't refuse the offer, as the white lion indeed had a significant demand for demon crystals.
In the evening, the group finally returned to the inn. However, compared to their spirited departure in the morning, they now appeared somewhat disheveled. Covered in dust and bloodstains, some of them had visible injuries. Nevertheless, they remained silent, as long as the wounds didn't hinder their actions, they considered it inconsequential.
However, upon closer inspection, one would notice that, except for Baili Hongzhuang and Emperor Beichen, everyone else had sustained injuries of varying degrees. It was evident that there was a difference in strength among them, particularly in terms of agility.
After returning to the inn, they handed the corpses of the slain demonic beasts to the innkeeper, requesting a sumptuous dinner in return. The remaining ingredients were left for the innkeeper to handle.
The innkeeper was astonished upon seeing the number of demonic beasts they had hunted. While there were many strong individuals in the Blood Abyss, it was rare to encounter a group like Baili Hongzhuang's that had killed so many demonic beasts. Moreover, the type of beasts indicated their high rank, likely found deep within the mountains.
Observing this, the innkeeper wore a smile on his face. Not only did he not charge them for the food preparation, but he also waived the room fees entirely.
After a day of exhausting endeavors, everyone was hungry and fatigued. Consequently, they consumed an astonishing amount of food.
Baili Hongzhuang returned to her room with the white lion, and the lion immediately entered a state of cultivation. Having consumed numerous demon crystals that day, it felt a surging vitality within its body and knew it was time to sit down and absorb and digest them properly.
Seeing this, Baili Hongzhuang had a thought and directly entered the ladder of heaven.
Today had been an intense day of training. Her elemental energy had been completely depleted, and her mental state was taut. Under such circumstances, practicing in the ladder of heaven would lead to rapid progress.
Baili Hongzhuang climbed directly to the highest level of the ladder of heaven. She instantly felt her whole body enveloped in elemental energy. As long as she activated her techniques, the energy would immediately be absorbed into her body.
The cells within Baili Hongzhuang greedily absorbed the elemental energy, constantly strengthening her dantian.
Baili Hongzhuang believed that with the ladder of heaven's assistance, her cultivation would undoubtedly catch up significantly within these three months.
Emperor Beichen's cultivation room, capable of providing four times the elemental energy, was already an extraordinary existence. Even Blue Light Smoke probably didn't have a cultivation room with stronger elemental energy.
With this advantage, her cultivation on the ladder of heaven was unparalleled.
The next day, Baili Hongzhuang and the group set off again for their training grounds. The scorching temperature made their clothes drenched in sweat, which was highly uncomfortable.
After considering everyone's strength, Emperor Beichen decided to continue training in the same area as the previous day. They all needed some time to adapt, and facing excessively powerful demonic beasts would only result in more severe injuries for the cultivators.
On the other hand, Xiaofei Lin and the others were enthusiastic. After being caught off guard yesterday, they were determined to regain their dignity today!
