Chapter 286: Chapter 284: Picking Up the Sleeping Treasure Pearl! Mastering the Power of Slumber! Advancing to Level 35!
As expected, being a bootlicker of the Deceit God leads to a dire end.
Whether you’re a human or a demon, no matter how much you worship the Deceit God, you mean nothing in his eyes.
Lin Tianming had not a shred of sympathy for the demons that died at the hands of the Deceit God’s male follower.
Their minds, like those of the human devotees of the Deep Sea Church, were deranged, always plotting for the Deceit God’s follower to end the world.
They didn’t wish to live and even dragged all living beings to accompany them in their so-called end-of-the-world scenario under the gray sea’s envelop, they truly deserved their deaths.
Thinking this, Lin Tianming stared at the man seated on the throne, peacefully asleep, for a while before quietly leaving the deepest hall of the Sleeping City.
Initially, his plan was to find the Deceit God’s male follower to see if he could show him a way out.
But since the Deceit God’s male follower was only sleeping, with no intention of leaving, Lin Tianming had to find his own way out.
Looking up at the sky completely enveloped by the Gray Sea, Lin Tianming paused to think before he began to ascend.
However, he soon encountered a barrier similar to a wall - the Gray Sea Barrier - which firmly locked him inside the Sleeping City.
Although he had guessed that the numerous unseen hands pulling him down meant no conventional method could help him escape, Lin Tianming still felt a bit down after his attempts failed.
"Am I going to be trapped here forever?"
Muttering to himself, Lin Tianming honestly retreated to the seabed streets of this ancient city.
Moving continuously in one direction, Lin Tianming didn’t know how long he had stayed in this place where time seemed non-existent, but upon reaching the end of one direction, he was again obstructed by the Gray Sea Barrier.
Finding a few large rocks nearby to mark the spot, Lin Tianming began to walk around the outer edges of this underwater city.
Walking endlessly until he returned to the starting point, Lin Tianming still found no gap in the Gray Sea Barrier. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Thunder Fist!
Heavenly Dragon Breath!
Instantaneous Bubble Shadow!
Star River Waterfall!
...
After using all the available skills he could, Lin Tianming was utterly unable to damage the Gray Sea Barrier.
His plan to forcefully break through the Gray Sea Barrier and escape had also failed, leading Lin Tianming to take a deep breath.
"It seems I have to go back and find that Deceit God’s male follower..."
Returning via the same path to the deepest hall of the underwater Sleeping City, Lin Tianming found that the Deceit God’s male follower was still seated on the throne, asleep.
Can this guy sleep any more?
If the Deceit God’s male follower keeps sleeping here, isn’t that condemning him to age and die alongside the Deceit God’s male follower?
Considering the Deceit God’s male follower had lived for endless eons, even sleeping for a few decades wouldn’t affect him.
If he just waits here, without becoming a god, his bodily functions would definitely deteriorate, and he would indeed die old in the depths of the sea.
Just as Lin Tianming was pondering what to do, the Deceit God’s male follower finally woke up.
Stretching languidly on the throne and even yawning, at that moment, the Deceit God’s male follower looked simply like a normal person who had just woken up.
If Lin Tianming hadn’t witnessed this seemingly ordinary Deceit God’s male follower use his powers repeatedly, he might actually believe the other was just a normal person.
When not using powers, the Deceit God’s male follower did bear a similarity to Huang Yiyi.
Thinking of Huang Yiyi, Lin Tianming somewhat missed her.
However, what he thought about was if he had Huang Yiyi’s ability to transform into a Holy Golden Butterfly to escape, he could have already left on his own, instead of waiting here for the Deceit God’s male follower to wake up.
Under Lin Tianming’s gaze, the Deceit God’s male follower tore open a space vortex leading to some unknown place right there.
The Deceit God’s male follower didn’t rush into the space vortex, instead staring into the vortex as if thinking about something.
After pondering for a long while, the Deceit God’s male follower again drew the Power of Slumber contained within the Sleeping Treasure Pearl.
Once he had absorbed enough of the Power of Slumber, the Deceit God’s male follower casually tossed the Sleeping Treasure Pearl on the throne and then stepped into the other end of the space vortex.
Lin Tianming watched the mysterious space vortex for a moment, then gritted his teeth and hurried toward it.
Now without a better option to leave the Sleeping City, he could only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor and see if the space vortex could take him out of there.
If he could escape, great; if not, Lin Tianming was prepared to face death at the hands of the Deceit God’s male follower.
However, just as Lin Tianming was about to step into the space vortex, the space vortex torn by the Deceit God’s male follower suddenly closed.
"Damn! Not closing earlier nor later, but just when I thought I could definitely make it, you close it intentionally, right?"
Lin Tianming couldn’t help but curse out loud. Right now, he desperately wished he could grab the Deceit God man and rub him forcefully against the ground.
The Deceit God man had left, and Lin Tianming had no idea when he would return, which made him once again lose hope of leaving the Sleeping City.
Feeling depressed, Lin Tianming stood still for a moment and then turned his attention to the Sleeping Treasure Pearl, since he couldn’t leave anyway.
Although the Deceit God man had absorbed a lot of the Power of Slumber from it, it still shimmered with radiance.
"Since I can’t leave anyway, why not study this Sleeping Treasure Pearl!"
Resigned to his fate, Lin Tianming even sat down on the throne that should belong to the Deceit God man.
This throne, symbolizing the authority of the Grey Sea and Slumber, was exclusively for the ruler of the Sleeping City.
Anyone who dared to sit on this throne would be torn apart by the power left by the Deceit God man.
However, when Lin Tianming sat down, he did not trigger any rejection from the throne.
In fact, the moment Lin Tianming sat on it, the residual powers of the Grey Sea and Slumber seemed somewhat delighted, as if they really enjoyed Lin Tianming sitting there.
It was as if Lin Tianming were more respected and revered by it than its own master.
Yet, Lin Tianming himself knew nothing of this.
After holding the Sleeping Treasure Pearl in his palm and studying it for a while, Lin Tianming discovered that it still contained potent Power of Slumber.
Moreover, he didn’t feel any taint of the deceitful aura of the Deceit God or any Demonic Qi.
This was clearly a Divine Artifact of the Deceit God, so why didn’t it have that corrupting influence that could soil everything?
Though he couldn’t understand why, considering that Lianghua and Ye Qingxue both desired this Sleeping Treasure Pearl, Lin Tianming believed that the powers of this pearl shouldn’t be corrupted by the Deceit God Power.
Since there was no corruption from the Deceit God Power, did that mean absorbing the power of the Sleeping Treasure Pearl wouldn’t drive him mad?
"Now that I can’t find any other way to leave, perhaps absorbing the power of this Sleeping Treasure Pearl will grant me the ability to escape this place!"
Already in the worst situation, Lin Tianming began to absorb the power of the Sleeping Treasure Pearl in hopes of finding a way to escape.
During the process of absorbing the power, Lin Tianming could distinctly feel that he was gradually understanding an ability to send everyone around him into slumber.
Furthermore, his Level aura was also steadily rising, trying to break through to Level 33.
Sensing his cultivation Level about to break through, Lin Tianming felt a surge of joy and became even more determined to absorb the Sleeping Treasure Pearl’s power for cultivation.
Thus, Lin Tianming continued to cultivate by absorbing the Sleeping Treasure Pearl’s power, unaware of how long he had been at it.
Since he couldn’t leave, he cultivated continuously until he completely grasped the Power of Slumber just like the Deceit God man.
Simultaneously, during this time of uninterrupted cultivation, his Level aura, which had no bottlenecks, finally stagnated after he completely grasped the Power of Slumber.
Following that, no matter how much more he absorbed the power of the Sleeping Treasure Pearl, he couldn’t advance his Level any further.
However, even so, Lin Tianming reached Level 35 without encountering any bottlenecks.
After breaking through to Level 35, Lin Tianming carefully sensed the various powers he hadn’t had the chance to feel during his rapid Level rise.
Upon checking, he was thrilled to discover that the limit of his Divine Hand’s duplication had increased to ten Skills.
The Skill limit of his Plunder Ability reached eight.
This meant that even without a Divine Power Crystal, Lin Tianming could now learn two additional superpower skills from others.
Now aware that Ye Qingxue and the others were acquiring Divine Dao Domain Skills, Lin Tianming naturally had higher expectations.
These two additional Plunder limits would definitely be used to learn Divine Dao Domain Skills!
Why not learn Ye Qingxue’s Death Sky Ice Pillar and Lianghua’s Spirit Manipulation Forbidden Technique Night Parade of Hundred Demons?
However, after a brief moment of excitement, Lin Tianming realized he still hadn’t found a way to escape.
Having gained so much in this Sleeping City, it would all seem meaningless if he couldn’t leave.
"What’s the use of a good plan if I can’t even get out!"
In his emotional downturn, Lin Tianming didn’t notice a faint, barely discernible light flash across the Black Crystal Necklace he was wearing.
Subsequently, the Sea Emperor Power Protection around his body also began to flicker again with dazzling light.
Realizing that his Sea Emperor Power Protection still shone in the Deceit God man’s den, Lin Tianming remembered that it had previously helped him evade the Fishman’s tracking.
"The Sea Emperor Power Protection still has effects here, I can breathe and talk freely, all thanks to it, maybe..."
Muttering to himself, as if struck by a sudden thought, Lin Tianming once again saw a glimmer of hope for escape.
"Sea Emperor, can you hear my call? I am trapped in the deepest trench of the Sleeping City, if you can hear me, please pull me back!"
