After the flood subsided, the pressure once again decreased. The pressure that could only be endured by those in the law boundary had become equivalent to an ordinary Ruler.
Ou Yangming continued to advance.
500 meters, 450 meters, 300 meters…
The distance shortened bit by bit. The closer Ou Yangming got to the waterfall, the more shocked the surrounding beasts became.
To be 300 meters away from the waterfall was something they had never heard of before.
From 300 meters away, Ou Yangming could clearly see the situation below the waterfall. The pressure on his body increased sharply again and had reached the law boundary without any changes. The young fellow gradually felt uncomfortable. This was not because of the spiritual pressure, but physical pressure!
The powerful pressure behind the waterfall was not only aimed at one’s spirit, but it also had a strong destructive effect on one’s body.
Only Ou Yangming knew this.
The bodies of those fierce beasts were very strong, and they were far from the waterfall. It was impossible for them to notice this.
Body!
At this moment, the strength of Ou Yangming’s body was his weakness. In this place that placed great importance on the strength of one’s body, he was clearly not up to the standard. He had only fused 10 Dripping Blood Stones, barely reaching the threshold of an Ancient Devil Warrior. If not for other powers, he would not even be a match for an Ancient Devil Warrior.
His physical strength was still too weak. Fortunately, there was a way to make up for it.
As long as he fused with the Dripping Blood Stones, it would be fine. Although it was a little painful, it had an immediate effect. For him, this was undoubtedly the best method.
He continued to walk forward for more than 10 steps. When he was about 200 steps away from the waterfall, he finally stopped.
The fierce beasts that were paying attention to him also let out a sigh of relief. At least, he still had his limits. If he really walked into the waterfall, he would probably scare a lot of the beasts here.
Being only 200 steps away was already very terrifying. At least among all the fierce beasts present, none of them could reach this level.
‘What a powerful Devil Dweller!’
Some fierce beasts exclaimed in their hearts. They were glad that when Ou Yangming came over just now, they did not show any hostility. It was the fierce tiger’s angry roar that saved everyone’s lives.
‘This guy is dressed like an Ancient Devil Warrior, but his strength is definitely not that of an Ancient Devil Warrior. At the very least, he’s a Devil General. He must be a very powerful existence among Devil Generals.’
While everyone was guessing in their hearts, Ou Yangming had gradually retreated.
The ferocious tiger lowered its head and nervously said, “Sir, I really forgot just now. Normally, the waterfall wouldn’t erupt at this time. I also didn’t expect such a change to happen. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the other beasts.”
Ou Yangming believed that this was an accident. The fierce tiger was cunning, but it would not take its life as a joke. If the young fellow had dodged in advance, he could have dodged it.
Nonetheless, the smile he saw when he turned his head was an indisputable fact. The ferocious tiger must have thought that he would die without a burial place. Unfortunately, the tiger had overestimated the power of the waterfall and underestimated Ou Yangming’s strength.
“I’ll give you one last chance. If I have any dissatisfaction with you next time, I won’t let you off.” Ou Yangming’s eyes were cold.
He looked at the ferocious tiger coldly and said, “Also, you’re not allowed to leave without my instructions. Otherwise, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I’ll take your life, dog.”
The ferocious tiger hurriedly nodded, not daring to resist in the slightest. It was a tiger so even if he died, it was still a tiger.
Having said that, Ou Yangming was strong and powerful. Whatever he said, it could only be accepted.
Seeing that Ou Yangming was so close to the waterfall, the ferocious tiger had given up on any chances. Just now, the young fellow had shown mercy by not killing it. The tiger also knew how to choose.
After warning the fierce tiger, Ou Yangming left.
He rose into the air and flew toward the distant forest.
Looking at Ou Yangming’s receding figure, the surrounding fierce beasts discussed animatedly.
Ou Yangming left alone because he planned to continue fusing with the Dripping Blood Stones. He got 2 from the fierce tiger, 35 from the Three-tailed Heavenly Fox, and 3 from the waterfall just now. There were a total of 40 Dripping Blood Stones. These stones were all good stuff, so he naturally would not waste them.
The young fellow was very curious about the waterfall. Despite that, his physical condition was too poor at the moment, so it was very difficult for him to get close to it. It was almost impossible for him to go in and take a look.
However, it was not impossible. As long as he continued to improve his body’s strength, he would have a chance to enter.
The power of the law of Yin and Yang appeared and wrapped around Ou Yangming. Unless there was someone who was stronger than him, there was no chance for anyone to enter.
Ou Yangming intended to fuse with the Dripping Blood Stones, so he had to be careful. If an enemy got close to him while he was fusing with the stones, it would be very dangerous.
He had fused 10 stones on his left arm, so it would be twice as difficult to continue the fusion.
This time, Ou Yangming changed to a different spot and chose his right hand.
His sharp dagger slashed lightly, and a deep cut appeared on his arm. His expression did not change. Blood did not flow out. After fusing with 10 Dripping Blood Stones, he could easily control his body.
He quickly threw one Dripping Blood Stone into it.
Dripping Blood Stones had to be fused one by one, even if one wanted to fuse with hundreds of them. This was common knowledge according to the Ancient Devil Warrior’s memory. It was not that no one had tried to fuse 2 Dripping Blood Stones at the same time, but those Devil Dwellers who tried were tortured to death by unbearable pain, so no one would make such a stupid attempt in the future.
This time, the fusion was still very painful, but it was a little better than before. After all, Ou Yangming had changed to a different spot.
He gritted his teeth and could still hold on.
After the first fusion, Ou Yangming began the second one. It was as if he never knew fatigue. When his spirit was exhausted, he would use recovery pills. When his physical strength was exhausted, he would also take pills to replenish it. At the end of the day, he fused 10 stones again.
“It’s time to rest for a while.”
Ou Yangming’s body had reached its limit. Even if he took pills to recover, the effect was very bad.
After resting for a while, Ou Yangming once again returned to the beach.
The waterfall was still flowing. No one knew what was behind it, and Ou Yangming was the same. There seemed to be something covering the waterfall. Even the young fellow’s mental power could not detect what was behind it.
“Sir.” The ferocious tiger walked over and said respectfully.
“Has the waterfall erupted?” Ou Yangming asked indifferently.
The tiger replied, “Sir, it hasn’t erupted yet. Yesterday was an accident. If nothing unexpected happens to this waterfall, it’ll erupt in the evening.”
“Okay.” Ou Yangming nodded and walked over to the waterfall again.
Soon, he went to the same place as yesterday. Compared to that time, he felt much better at this moment. When he was in this place yesterday, he felt that if he took another step forward, his body would be injured. Now, the feeling had disappeared.
Ou Yangming felt that he could still take 2 more steps forward.
He took another step forward.
This time, Ou Yangming was very careful and kept his eyes on the situation above him.
Ou Yangming was 200 meters away, unlike the 500-meter area just now. If the waterfall attacked again, the pressure would suddenly increase tenfold. Even if his spirit could withstand it, his body would not be able to withstand it.
With his previous experience, Ou Yangming also knew the prelude to the eruption of the waterfall. As long as he left in time, there would not be any danger.
The surrounding fierce beasts looked over in shock. ‘This Devil Dweller has broken through the limit?’
They watched as Ou Yangming took a step forward, their hearts in disbelief.
‘Could it be that he deliberately hid his strength yesterday?’
‘That’s not right. He clearly couldn’t take it yesterday.’
Ou Yangming ignored everyone’s thoughts and continued forward. This time, he directly took 13 steps forward.
13 steps!
In other words, after Ou Yangming fused with the 10 Dripping Blood Stones, he could take 13 steps forward.
The waterfall was still not close but to Ou Yangming, this was already good news.
At this point, Ou Yangming once again felt his limit. He did not rashly move forward and turned around to retreat.
This time, there were no unexpected events from the waterfall. In the evening, the waterfall moved again. There were a total of 4 Dripping Blood Stones that rushed out of the water. Ou Yangming’s eyes and hands were quick. He grabbed all 3 stones that were heading toward him. As for the other one that was too far away, it was taken by a snake-shaped fierce beast.
Seeing as the other Dripping Blood Stones disappeared again…
The fierce beasts were unhappy, but there was nothing they could do.
This Devil Dweller was too powerful. They were already thankful that he did not come here to kill them wantonly.
As for the Dripping Blood Stones, as long as Ou Yangming did not leave, he would surely take away more than half of the ones that rushed out of the waterfall. At the end of the day, the others were simply not capable enough.
Ou Yangming did not feel embarrassed about the things that he obtained with his ability.
After taking the 3 Dripping Blood Stones, Ou Yangming flew away again and returned to the mountain forest to merge again.
Subsequently, Ou Yangming would come here every day. Basically, all the Dripping Blood Stones that came out of the waterfall would belong to him.
Everyone also found that the Devil Dweller seemed to be getting stronger.
During this period, the Devil Dweller would try it every day. He would withstand the pressure and walk toward the waterfall. Each time, he would advance a little bit more than the day before.
Sometimes it would be 10 steps, sometimes it would be 7 or 8 steps, and sometimes it would be 2 or 3 steps.
In short, he was making progress every day.
This situation continued for a month. Finally, some fierce beasts could not take it anymore.
If the Devil Dweller was always here, they would not be able to get a Dripping Blood Stone at all.
As such, some fierce beasts thought of a way.
