Following the complete obliteration of the White Face Devil, Henri absorbed the resulting residues of Death Qi. Although it wasn't enough for a level up, nearly one tenth of energy bar number twenty two got filled up. "The higher I level up, the more demanding future level- ups get." Henri clicked his tongue when he saw how slow his development have become. [You should quicky retrieve the Jacob's Phantasm Flower and get out of this place.] Sensing the frantic urgency in Lilith's tone, Henri's gaze lingered towards the multi colored skies above him, particularly the Heavenly Lightning tribulation that was currently raging on. "I think so too." With both the threats of the White Face Devil as well as the Army of Corpse Qi dealt with, Henri finally had the opportunity to observe his surrounding with uninterrupted clarity. The Valley that was surrounded by twelve mountains appeared way more spacious than it was supposed to be. With nothing obstructing his path, Henri took large str

[I am afraid that isn't up for you to decide!][Just like I am sure you have already noticed by now, the only way out of this valley is through the path you came into it from --] Before Lilith could finish her sentence, Henri interjected with a grim expression ".. through the skies." [It is highly likely that there is a transportation matrix stationed above us. However, even if you possess a means that allows you the ability of flight, tell me how are you going to avoid the heavenly lightning tribulation?] [A single bolt of lightning would be all it takes to completely wipe you out from existence. This Venerable One doesn't wish to die in such an embarrassing manner!] "So what do you suggest I do?" [Isn't it clear already? claim the Terrace Item!] Henri was completely stunned when he heard Lilith's suggestion. "How does me claiming the Terrace Item gets us out of this place?" [Foolish Mortal. Have you not been learning anything at all? The Heavenly Lightning tribulation abo

'the system is really thorough.' feeling impressed, Henri keenly observed the holographic display of information before him. Not only did Ultimate Scanning Mode successfully scan the entire floating Steele, it also presented the entire construct via the 3D twin simulation. Through the holographic simulation, Henri was able to easily expand and contract the 3D twin representation of the floating Steele however he wished. In addition to allowing him to view the entire characters inscribed across the body of the floating Steele, Ultimate Scanning Mode also took things a step forward. Not only did it accurately decrypt the written characters across the body of the Steele, it presented the resulting translation in a language that Henri could clearly understand. Reading the full translation via D - Stream File 01 3D twin simulation, Henri's brows jumped in surprise. "Blood Mixed with Destiny. Kinship mixed with a Bloody Sacrifice. Fate is a fickle concept. Only when these two conditions

"It doesn't matter though. Since you refuse to play along, I'll just have to forcefully take what I want!" as soon as the maiden finished speaking, the flower bed beside her got replaced by a shallow pit that was bubbling with green colored poison. Right before Henri's calm gaze, he watched as the previously serene and soothing ambiance experienced a visible transition. From a field littered with colorful flowers, the entire area transformed into a wide expanse of land that appeared to stretch out endless towards the horizon. However unlike the field of colorful flowers from earlier, the current terrain gave off a bleak ambiance. With the ground randomly littered with toxic poison pits and nine blood red suns above in the skies, Henri ended up scrunching his nose in discomfort. Just taking a whiff of the oxygen in the area caused him to nearly retch. Even the air stinked of death. "Let me guess. The only way I obtain the World Slaying Bow is if I defeat you right?" despite the mas

"Time Interval? What --" before the maiden guardian could finish her sentence, Henri snappily cut her off. "There is no point trying to play the fool. Whenever you turn parts of your body Intangible, the color of the World Slaying Bow changes from its original ivory color, into faint bronze. At the same time, you can only remain partially Intangible for approximately a minute or two. However at the same time, you cannot simultaneously turn another part of your body Intangible." "Whenever you try turning another part of your body intangible, there's approximately a thirty second delay in between for the effect of your technique to kick in. Although you tried concealing it, I was able to discern how you managed to make this delay time barely negligible." Like someone who had finally caught their opponent in a checkmate, Henri continued speaking. But this time, a victorious smirk was spread across his lips. ".. You used your second ability.. the one that allows you to transform your
