Chapter 285
"So, did you calm down? Cause we need to move ASAP." Sword Demon sighed and asked.
Mike stood next to him and nodded his head. Both of them quickly followed Sword Demon and hurriedly rushed towards Bing Lan. As they flew far away from their initial place, they reached in front of tall stairs that takes them to the sky.
They couldn't see the end and the stair wasn't properly attached to the ground either. But, it didn't matter to them since they could simply fly. They stepped on the staircase and move towards the sky.
The staircase was a little weird. It was simply floating in the air without any support. And, they couldn't see the end with their naked eyes either. They had to walk for half an hour until they discover a giant island floating in the sky.
It had nothing to hold. Mike was speechless when he looked through the island with his pioneer's eyes. Because this island was held on the air by the power of law. This law seems to be like Wind Law. It was only his guess since he hasn't practiced the Wind Law.
The staircase ends connecting the island. Mike and his group land on the island and Bing Lan speaks "This is the upper ground. Almost every floor has lower and upper ground. The gate to the next floor is currently at another end."
"Between us and that gate, there is a massive forest. When I previously came here, I faced Fire Breathing Lions on the upper ground. But, on the lower, I only met Water Breathing Lions the previous time. I met the Metal Worm on the second floor."
"So, I am not sure what will be met. But, if it is something I could guess, it can only be Three-Horn Mountain Tearing Rhino. This beast is known for its horn and its amazing piercing capability. If you stand on its way, it can easily shred you in half."
Listening to her words, Mike and Sword Demon nodded their head. They already knew this wasn't going to be easy. In fact, it would only be worse.
"Alright, we will stay close and move forward. Once we discover Rhino and its strength, we will further move. If it is too strong, we will rely on each other but if it is weak, I will handle the rest." Mike then turned his head at Sword Demon and continued "You two are currently weak."
"So, it would be the best idea to help each other during the fight."
Sword Demon was slightly offended by his words. But, he didn't argue. He was indeed weak. Without his ability energy, he couldn't fight properly.
Bing Lan didn't mind anything. She knew she was weak and getting a chance to fight a stronger opponent was already an opportunity for her. And, certain protection of life would only be made this better.
Following Mike's words, they walked straight to the forest. They had only walked for ten minutes until they heard a strange sound.
Bang! Bang!
It felt like someone was fighting. They got curious and hurriedly moved towards the origin of the sound. As they came closer to the fighting scene, they saw a man bare-handed fighting against a rhino with a three-horned rhino.
This rhino was the same as the normal rhino they had seen in the past. It had four legs with thick skin but three horns instead of one. Its two horns were spread to the side and one was at the middle.
"Max?" Mike and Sword Demon shouted at the same time when they saw the man's face. He was none other than muscular and brownish-toned Max.
"So, he is one of your friends?" Bing Lan looked at them with doubts and asked.
"Friend wouldn't be the exact word to describe our relationship. We are more like opponents." Mike shook his head and explained.
"Oh!" Bing Lan simply shuts her mouth and waited.
"So, are we going to help him? He seems to be in a worse condition." Mike turned his head at Sword Demon and asked.
"Don't ask me! I have no relationship with him." Sword Demon shook his head and answered. His meaning was simple. If you save him, it's okay. And, if you don't save him, it's okay as well.
He doesn't care about others. The only reason why he is listening to Mike is that he respects Mike's strength. And, he needs Mike to understand more about this world.
"Whatever! Let's save him. Not everyone will understand us like Bing Lan." Mike tilts his head and looked at Max. Currently, Max was relying on his physical strength to fight against the Rhino. But, the demon beasts normally have stronger physical bodies due to the demon's energy.
Mike snapped his finger and appeared behind Max. But, suddenly Max clenched his fist and swings towards Mike.
"Woah! Hold on! I am here to save you." Mike caught the punch with ease startling Max. When Max turned his head, he saw Mike and got confused for a moment.
"No time to talk! Let's get you out of here." Saying so, Mike snapped his finger and teleported near Sword Demon and Bing Lan.
He turned his head at Bing Lan and said "Is there a way to heal him?"
"I have some healing pills. They could help." Bing Lan nodded her head and took a few yellow pills out of her spatial ring and gave it to Max. At this moment, Max was still confused.
"Alright, let him heal! I will take down that fella." Mike instantly disappeared and appeared behind the Rhino. The golden slime transformed into a gun. The lightning and fire law merged together at the nozzle and shot a powerful stream of red lightning.
Zap! Splash! Bang! Thud!
The red lightning pierced through the body of the Rhino and struck the rock behind it. The power of lightning was enhanced through his golden slime.
[5000 EXP Earned]
[Cultivator- Mike Tyson
Cultivation- Martial Artist Ninth Stage
EXP- 95000/10000 (For level-up)
Wealth- Nil
Inventory- Howling Tiger Spear, Whirlwind Boots, Black Dragon Saber, and Wind Sword.]
"Well, that nest really helped me a lot. I didn't know I would be able to reach the next realm this quickly. Now, I need to hunt another rhino to get enough EXP." When Mike killed those Metal-Worms, he still got EXP.
Previously when he killed the tiger, he devoured both qi and blood. That is why he didn't get EXP. But now, he only devoured their blood and that's why he got qi. At least, this is what he thinks. After all, he can't get EXP out of nowhere.
There has to be a way to acquire energy from the dead creatures to fill up the EXP storage. But, he was even more surprised because he didn't expect to get EXP by killing the creatures inside the tower.
After killing it, he quickly arrived next to others.
"So, what's your condition?" Mike turned his head at Max and asked.
"Good enough! So, will you explain what's happening here?" Max nods feeling the strength returning to his body. The wounds were healed and his energy was rising to the top.
"It seems something happened to the portal and all of you got teleported into this new universe. I was teleported a month ago. Since this is the universe, there are many things that don't seem to be the same as our universe."
"In terms of cultivation, both universes have different rules but this world is way higher than ours. Of course, in terms of technology, we are way ahead of them. You can't use the ability energy. Seems like it restricted by the universal laws."
"By the way, our ability energy was refined out of dark energy. And, dark energy is close to demon energy. That's why the people of this world think of us as a demon. We don't think too much about that. For now, try to comprehend laws."
"Our body is already strong and we can train it further with laws. And, comprehending laws is the only way to gain strength without cultivation. Of course, there are some downsides. But, we will discuss that later. For now, let's just move above and find more people." Mike explained.
Max thought for a while and nodded his head "Well, I got the basics. But, I have a question for you. Have you found a way to cultivate in this world? I asked just to reassure myself!"
"I have found a way. But, it could take a while. Don't worry until then I have a place for you guys to stay." Mike answered.
"Wait a minute! Did you cultivate to the Martial King Realm in just a month?" Bing Lan suddenly caught Mike's shoulder and shouted at his face.
"Well, he was the fastest cultivator in our universe. So, I guess it wouldn't be much of a surprise. But, Martial King Realm seems to be an exaggeration even though I don't know the realms of this universe." Max pointed out Mike's quality but still looked at him with doubts.
"Of course, I can't cultivate that fast. And, it has been a week before I started cultivation." Mike closed off his Vanishing Aura completely and said. At this moment, his cultivation was completely revealed to Bing Lan.
"Martial Artist Peak?"
