Chapter 290: Return

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

To Lu Ming, Moon Fiend’s appearance was somewhat baffling.

However, in the following months, this matter did not cause any trouble for Lu Ming.

Moon Fiend came and took Lu Ming in as her subordinate. After that, she did not send a message again. The Blackmond Clan she mentioned did not come looking for her.

Lu Ming wondered if Moon Fiend had forgotten about him… In any case, Lu Ming felt that he might be about to forget Moon Fiend.

Time slowly passed.

Lu Ming gradually accumulated strength.

After 52 days, the Blazing Flame Body Forging Technique advanced to the perfect realm.

[Flame Body Forging Technique (Mastery) (0/100,000): Physique Realm Body Forging Technique. This secret technique requires the assistance of Flamestones during cultivation. Only when the power of flame enters the body can one temper the physique!]]

[You have mastered the cultivation of the Flame Body Forging Technique. At the Proficient stage, each cycle will increase your three-dimensional attributes by 20 points and grant you 20 free attribute points. It also consumes one unit of Flamestone.]

With every cycle of the Body Forging technique, the attribute points obtained increased from 10 to 20. 𝐟𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘄𝗲𝐛𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝐨𝐦

It was equivalent to Lu Ming’s efficiency in farming attributes doubled again.

Although he also knew that the efficiency of Spirit Realm and even Source Realm Body Forging Techniques was higher, considering that the Source Power Skill of the Divine Power Realm could bring about some obvious changes, Lu Ming still did not give up on the Physique Realm Source Power Skill, the Flame Body Forging Technique.

This was also related to the fact that there was a flamestone mine nearby.

Another 50 days later.

In other words, the 530th day of the Black Mist Calendar.

Lu Ming’s expression changed and he looked down at his chest.

Two additional silver patterns gradually appeared on his chest, like a birthmark.

Silver Pattern: Fist Kill (Level 1)

Silver Pattern: Bow Kill (Level 1)

These two new silver patterns shone with the same nature as the silver patterns of the Body Protective technique.

Thinking about it, their special characteristics were the same—they were both silver patterns that had growth potential.

At this moment, Lu Ming still only had one silver pattern on his Body Protective technique. However, as the [Absolute Defense (Level 1)] silver pattern characteristic kept absorbing other special effects, the strength of Lu Ming’s Body Forging technique silver pattern could not be compared to before.

“Other Ancient Realms cultivated, they obtained a quantity of silver patterns, but when it came to me, it turned into a quality of silver patterns…”

Moon Fiend could not understand the special qualities of Lu Ming’s silver patterns, and Lu Ming naturally could not fathom the intricacies within.

“But, as long as I can become stronger, these are all insignificant matters.”

After muttering to himself, Lu Ming continued his cultivation.

Two more months passed, marking the 590th Day of the Black Mist Calendar.

Lu Ming’s cultivation was interrupted by the ringtone.

He got up and walked to the door. When he opened the door, he saw Roxin standing there.

Seeing Lu Ming, Roxin immediately said, “Brother Lu, someone has come to see you, from the Blackmond Clan.”

Lu Ming’s eyes flashed, “I’ll go take a look.”

Nearly half a year later, the things Moon Fiend had instructed finally began to take shape.

Together with Roxin, Lu Ming went to the front gate, where they saw a strong, dark-skinned man of nearly three meters in height, standing with his arms crossed.He arrived at the entrance with Luo Xin and saw a strong black-skinned man nearly three meters tall standing in front of the door with his hands behind his back.

Seeing Lu Ming, this man raised an eyebrow and sized him up rather rudely. Then, he grinned, revealing a mouth full of shark-like teeth.

“You’re the contact of the contact?”

The contact of the contact… What the hell was this?

Lu Ming was puzzled, but he did not show it on his face.

“You’re looking for my lord? What’s the matter?”

The man said, “Our clan leader said that we need more Beast King’s blood, and he wants to obtain more from the contact.”

Lu Ming nodded and said, “Wait a moment.”

Lu Ming did not know anything about contact or the Beast King’s blood.

Moon Fiend had never mentioned it to him.

Facing this situation, Lu Ming naturally had to inform Moon Fiend immediately.

He returned to his room and took out his token, infusing it with Source Power. Soon, a lazy voice echoed from the token.

“Lu Ming? What’s the matter?”

Seems like she has not forgotten me…

Lu Ming thought to himself, and quickly recounted what had just happened.

When Moon Fiend, on the other end, heard this, she could not help but curse, “These greedy beasts!”

After some thought, she added, “Send the envoy of the Blackmond Clan away first. Then come to Archean City to pick me up.”

Lu Ming was stunned, “Pick you up?”

Moon Fiend said impatiently, “I’ll take you to see a few people and discuss some matters.”

“And the next time 1 speak, just listen, don’t ask so many questions.”

It was unknown if Moon Fiend had negative emotions after waking up or something else, but her attitude was not very good.

Lu Ming did not respond but just said okay and ended the communication.

Outside the door, after Lu Ming said that “my lord will visit later”, the envoy of the Blackmond Clan left.

After giving instructions to Roxin, Lu Ming headed in the direction of Archean City.

This was the first time Lu Ming had left his home in more than 200 days.

“I’ll just treat it as a short break to change my mood…”

Lu Ming thought in a somewhat lighthearted manner.

But his cultivation had been disturbed, so his mood was understandably not the best.

The gloomy atmosphere in the Hundred Thousand Mountains was completely different from its once-familiar territory, that Lu Ming’s mood was down in the dumps.

At that time, when Lu Ming and his group had hidden in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the outer areas were already occupied by zombie beasts, but the environment had not been heavily damaged.

However, after more than two hundred days, when Lu Ming returned to the same location, he was shocked to find that the entire Hundred Thousand Mountains had been utterly ravaged.

A large number of plants had been destroyed, and from the traces, it seemed to be the aftermath of a battle involving Source Realm experts.

The ground was littered with zombie beast carcasses.

Zombie beast carcasses were worthless, and when they died, the corpse poison within them would seep out along with corpse fluids, not only contaminating the environment but also becoming a source of secondary pollution.

Wherever Lu Ming walked, the ground was covered in gray, and most of the plants had died due to pollution. Every now and then, he could see shadows moving, which were the tracks of the zombie beasts.

Lu Ming carried the aura of Esek, so he was not afraid of being attacked by zombie beasts. But the harsh and foul environment inevitably made Lu Ming a little depressed.

When Lu Ming arrived at Archean City and saw the scene where the Corpse clan and the Insect clan coexisted within the city, he was even more puzzled.

“What’s going on?”

“The Giant Clan has been betrayed by the Insect Clan.”

A voice came from not far away, and when Lu Ming turned to look, he saw a familiar face.

“Iron Lump?”

The Insect Clan member who came to welcome Lu Ming cocked his head.

“Please call me Tang Chongye, okay?”

When enemies met, they did not attack.

Tang Chongye had a mission to carry out, so he naturally could not harm his mission target.

As for Lu Ming, he was still taken aback by the news Tang Chongye had just told him.

“The Giant Clan has been betrayed by the Insect Clan.”

On the way to Archean City, Lu Ming muttered to himself, and Tang Chongye nodded.

“Yes, under the orders of the Origin Insect Mother, with the Blood Flesh Mother Tree, they formed an alliance with the Corpse Clan.”

“When the Giant Race was not on guard at all, the Insect Clan dealt them a fatal blow..”
