Starting from the forty-first floor, Fu Lao, Di Luo and the others could no longer follow Ding Meng. Down here, it was already a pure cyan world, and the temperature generated by the cyan flame was as high as eighty thousand degrees. Ding Meng found it difficult to move forward again. By now, he needed to circulate his power at the highest limit of six points to resist the flame.
Ding Meng still chose to move from the border. To be honest, it was not difficult for him to find the crystal well by himself, but it was time-consuming. Fortunately, there were almost no living creatures in the depths of the earth's core. However, the speed of their advance was getting slower and slower. 43rd floor, 44th floor, 45th floor, 46th floor …
When they reached the 52nd floor with difficulty, Ding Meng could not hold it in anymore. "Xiao Ai, how long has it been?"
Xiao Ai sighed. "What I want to tell you is that a year has passed in the real world."
Ding Meng was silent. He did not expect time to pass so quickly. In other words, he had been cultivating crazily for more than a year. The efficiency of this cultivation was far greater than the three years he spent on the Expedition. The problem was that he still had not found any clues about the Mou Xing civilization, and he did not know what the situation on the surface was like.
"Let's continue!" Ding Meng said again.
"It's very difficult to go further down. If there's no other way, let's go back."
Little Rascal hesitated. She knew that Ding Meng was so persistent because of her. If they could find some clues about the Mou Xing civilization, although it was not enough to return to the Mou Xing civilization 120 billion light-years away, wouldn't it be wonderful if they could meet someone of the same kind?
"It's okay. I can handle it!"
Ding Meng secretly activated the seventh origin. Now, the surroundings were filled with deep blue flames. The entire world was blue. It was so blue that it was like a dream. It was also blue like the netherworld. No one knew what would happen if they went further down.
According to the information provided by the database, the levels of flames below Planet Extreme Flame were red, orange, green, cyan, blue, and purple. In other words, when the surrounding flames turned purple, that was probably the limit.
Little Rascal said, "Not necessarily. According to my point of view, it should be red, orange, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, white, rainbow, transparent, formless and formless!"
"Transparent?
Formless and formless? "
Ding Meng and Xiao Ai found it hard to comprehend. They could imagine black Origin Energy flames, but they couldn't imagine transparent and formless flames no matter how hard they racked their brains.
Little Rascal said, "You can't simply view it as Origin Energy. You should try to understand it from the perspective of energy. Red is naturally the true color. This is the origin color of all things in the universe. Then, as energy increases, the color will continue to darken. In the end, everything will turn white."
Ding Meng seemed to have understood something. "The color of the Divine Light Energy is white. No wonder this weapon was pure white when it was formed. It is already of a very high level. This indirectly shows the strength of the Mou Xing Civilization."
"Of course, there's no problem if you understand it that way."
Little Rascal paused for a moment, then sighed softly. "An enemy even more powerful than our Mou Xing Civilization. They are at the level of 'rainbow'. Now they know how insignificant they are, right?"
Ding Meng couldn't help but sigh. Regardless of whether he was in the God Wars Star Region or the Holy Grail Federation, he dared to say that he was definitely at the top. However, according to the Mou Xing Civilization's standards, he could only refine light blue Origin Energy. There was nothing to be proud of.
Moreover, this was only the cultivation of Origin Energy flames and the strengthening of his body. It wasn't the advancement of his Cultivation Technique or Martial Skill.
"Forget it."
Ding Meng sighed. "It wasn't easy to find such a treasure trove. Since we're already here, there's no reason for us to stop. Let's continue!"
At this point, continuing didn't mean that it would be difficult to advance any further. Instead, it would take a lot of time. Advancing on each level required a large amount of Eternal Flame Crystals to refine and strengthen his body to withstand the high temperature.
The temperature of 100,000 degrees appeared on the 63rd level. This was equivalent to the temperature of the crystal well on the 30th level. What surprised Little Rascal and Little Love was that not only was Ding Meng able to withstand the heat, he only needed to advance for the first four levels.
Ding Meng threw caution to the wind at this moment. He no longer worried about the situation on the surface. They had already reached the depths of the planet's core, so they could only continue advancing.
However, when they reached the 70th level, it was no longer a scene of chaotic flames. This level was completely different from the previous levels. It was as if they had returned to the dark, boundless wilderness of Planet McGrady. The entire world was a bluish-purple hue, and the Origin Energy flames in the surroundings had completely solidified. It was as if they were in a real wilderness.
Even though it looked like a painting, the temperature in the painting was a frightening 150,000 degrees. It was almost impossible for any living things to survive here.
Little Rascal suddenly said, "Why do I feel like this place is a bit like our Divine Light Biotechnology's energy storage?"
When Ding Meng heard this, she lowered her head and realized that wherever she walked, there was indeed a strange light of purple light emitting from the ground.
A circle of glowing footprints was quickly activated. All of the light suddenly shot out from the ground and gathered in mid-air.
Ding Meng decisively retreated. He could already sense the danger. A purple object was forming in mid-air. A moment later, a butterfly similar to the one Fu Lao and the others had seen appeared.
The butterfly's body was actually that of a woman. This woman was almost exactly the same as a human. She had a voluptuous body, a beautiful face, and a head of fiery red hair that rose to the sky. On top of a pair of blue butterfly wings, there was a pair of greyish-brown six-winged wings.
The butterfly's body was about the same size as a normal human. As it floated in the air, it gave off a frightening feeling. This was because Little Love's calculations had already been completed. "Her battle index is actually as high as 3.8 billion points."
3.8 billion points. How heaven-defying was that?
This was a mid-level Battle-Saint. It was simply too frightening.
Just as Ding Meng was about to activate the origin, the butterfly actually spoke first. Her voice was crisp and full of authority. "Hello, Ding Meng. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Congratulations on coming to my territory."
Ding Meng was stunned. "You recognize me?"
The butterfly spun in a circle in the air. "You have been moving about in the territory of the Inferno Butterfly Tribe. I know your every move very well. I had originally planned to meet you ten years later. I didn't expect you to arrive in such a short time. The Star-Mou Warriors truly live up to their reputation."
Ding Meng frowned. "Who exactly are you?"
The butterfly landed on the ground and leisurely walked towards Ding Meng. "Don't be nervous. I am just a thought."
"Thought?"
Ding Meng almost thought that his ears were playing tricks on him. You are so powerful, but you are just a thought? Who would believe that?
Ding Meng secretly activated his telekinesis vision. He was shocked to discover that the butterfly really wasn't spouting nonsense. The butterfly appeared to be a creature of the Inferno Race, but it was actually a transparent ball of light. It was just like Little Rascal in its spiritual form. You could sense its existence, but you couldn't see its true form.
"You can call me the Black Butterfly Demon Empress," the butterfly spoke again.
Ding Meng immediately reacted. "You are the lord of the Inferno Butterfly Tribe?"
The Demon Empress said seriously, "That's right. I am the lord of the Inferno Butterfly Tribe. I am also a friend of the Star-Mou Warriors."
Ding Meng pondered for a moment before asking, "Where is your true form?"
The Demon Empress replied, "I am everywhere."
Ding Meng found this difficult to understand. Thankfully, the Demon Empress took the initiative to explain. "I am always present in the territory of the Inferno Butterfly Tribe."
Ding Meng asked, "Can you let me see your true form?"
The Demon Empress stared at him. "Are you sure?"
Ding Meng nodded. "Otherwise, it will be very difficult for me to believe you."
The Demon Empress' figure suddenly turned blurry, and at the same time, the purple sky suddenly emitted bursts of crackling sounds. Looking up, there were dozens of dazzling electric currents in the sky. This scene was exactly the same as when the super lifeform appeared on the Azure Wood Star.
Countless bolts of electricity spread out and instantly formed a female face. The face almost covered the entire sky.
At this moment, an unprecedented pressure pressed down. Ding Meng's vision turned black, and he stumbled. He almost fainted from the pressure.
The human face in the sky and the thought's face were exactly the same. Furthermore, the human face even spoke. "Do you believe me now?"
Xiao Ai's voice trembled slightly. "I can't calculate her battle index anymore. Just from this aura alone, her true body should be over 10 billion points."
Ding Meng knew that ten billion points of battle strength was the highest level in the Holy Grail Federation and the Norse Empire. No one in the Federal Empire had ever broken through to this level. No matter how talented one was, this was a natural moat that could never be crossed. Thus, the Federation called it the "Extraterrestrial War God." They believed that no one in the human world could do this. Only a god-like civilization in outer space could do this.
The human face quickly disappeared, and the sky turned purple again. The Demon Empress' thought clone became clear again. She walked over unhurriedly.
Ding Meng was nervous at first, but he immediately relaxed. If the Demon Empress really wanted to kill him, it would probably be a matter of a breath. Resistance would be futile.
"I have been waiting for you!"
The Demon Empress said indifferently. "To be precise, I have been waiting for the descendant of Mou Xing to come here."
Ding Meng didn't ask why because the Demon Empress gently waved her hand. A miraculous thing happened. A large amount of light surged out from the ground. These light rays were like the most realistic three-dimensional models. They grew on the ground at an unbelievable speed.
Ding Meng, Little Rascal, and the others were all stunned. Wasn't this the Mou Xing Shrine under the Rainbow System's asteroid?
He and the Demon Empress were standing in the middle of the shrine's hall. The surroundings were exactly the same. Ding Meng was completely sure of this.
"You must have been to this shrine before."
The Demon Empress explained, "Because you are wearing a divine light weapon. Furthermore, I have seen this weapon before."
Ding Meng was shocked. "You have seen it before?"
The Demon Empress nodded. "Yes, this happened a thousand years ago."
She waved her hand again, and the throne at the top of the shrine appeared. When Ding Meng saw this throne in the Rainbow System, he was attracted by the clothes of the Mou Xing general. Now, the general's image had miraculously appeared again. Not only were the clothes perfectly restored, but the general's true appearance was also clearly visible.
