Above a dense forest.

Lin Zichen, Shen Qinghan, and Qi Qingmo were flying at high speed through the sky.

They were heading in the direction of the nearest biometric passageway.

Under the current circumstances, only by allowing Lin Zichen to enter the Origin Land and absorb energy through devouring could they have a chance for a desperate turnaround.

"Lin Zi, some major heavenly and earthly phenomena have appeared behind us."

When Shen Qinghan saw the phenomena triggered by Xuanyuan Wanyu's fall, her face instantly filled with shock and a touch of unease.

Lin Zichen and Qi Qingmo heard this and understood that Xuanyuan Wanyu had fallen, their expressions immediately turned grave.

It wasn't that they cared about Xuanyuan Wanyu or were sad about her death, but witnessing the fall of such a mythical high-order powerhouse, they felt a simple sorrow akin to when one laments the demise of others in their kind.

Lin Zichen looked back at the phenomena behind them and a bold idea formed in his mind—to go back and absorb the Origin Force left behind after Xuanyuan Wanyu's death.

Xuanyuan Wanyu was a mythical high-order creature, and if he could devour the Origin Force she left behind, his Biological Level could definitely soar instantly, which would be more beneficial than entering the Origin Land and devouring any number of Beast Kings.

"Let's go back and absorb the Origin Force left behind after Xuanyuan Wanyu's fall. After the Wood God dealt with her, he surely wouldn't remain in the same place, so the risk for us returning now is not high,"

Qi Qingmo suggested to Lin Zichen.

She read Lin Zichen's thoughts from the slight change in his expression and felt his idea was feasible, so she made the suggestion.

After a moment of hesitation, Lin Zichen made his decision, "Then let's go, we're going back."

With that, he immediately changed direction, carrying Shen Qinghan at full speed towards the location of Xuanyuan Wanyu's fall.

The energy remaining after a creature's death would persist in the same place for a while.

This period wouldn't be very long—in terms of minutes, at most.

As time passed, most of the remaining energy would dissipate.

Lin Zichen had to get back before the energy Xuanyuan Wanyu left behind dissipated, so he could maximize the absorption and gain the most Qi-Blood and Spiritual Strength.

With two streaks of crimson light flashing past.

Quickly.

Lin Zichen, holding Shen Qinghan, and the empty-handed Qi Qingmo, successfully arrived right beneath the heavenly and earthly phenomena.

There, the three of them sensed many extremely strong energy fluctuations left in the air.

These were the energy fluctuations left behind after the fall of Xuanyuan Wanyu, still emitting an incredibly terrifying might capable of easily shaking any creature below the mythic level to death.

Lin Zichen wasted no time and quickly moved to the center of the energy fluctuations, thinking: Devour!

[You have devoured a large amount of Origin Force from Xuanyuan Wanyu. Origin Force transformed into Qi-Blood and Spirit, greatly enhancing your Qi Blood Strength and Spiritual Strength]

[Your Biological Level has successfully evolved from "Mythic Seventh Order Great Perfection" to "Mythic Eighth Order"]

Indeed, he had evolved another level!

Lin Zichen looked at the text notification that appeared in the void, feeling a surge of excitement in his heart.

Qi Qingmo, standing nearby and sensing the surge in Lin Zichen's biological might, couldn't help but show a fleeting look of envy in her eyes.

She had cultivated for countless epochs, survived innumerable life-and-death crises, and with great difficulty attained her current level of strength.

And there was Lin Zichen, who was only around twenty years old and virtually a blank slate in life experience, who did nothing but devour the Origin Force of other creatures to have his Biological Level skyrocket to Mythic Eighth Order.

In comparison to him, she felt like a beggar in front of a second-generation rich kid; no matter how hard she tried to pick trash, she could never match the wealthy's means.

Lin Zichen's innate Evolutionary Talent could not be equaled by her longer cultivation.

"Let's go, Pavilion Master, we move on to the Origin Land,"

said Lin Zichen, after finishing the devouring of the Origin Force, not lingering at the spot any longer.

After speaking to Qi Qingmo, he transformed into a streak of light along with Shen Qinghan, speeding towards the nearest biometric passageway.

Hearing this, Qi Qingmo quickly snapped out of her thoughts and transformed into a swiftly moving streak of light to follow the distant Lin Zichen.

"Hiss...hiss...hiss!"

They hadn't flown far when numerous shocking cracks suddenly appeared in the air around them.

Before they could react, a mass of vines burst forth from the cracks, rapidly shooting towards the trio.

This time, they couldn't react as swiftly as before, unable to dodge in time, and were instantly entangled by the attacking vines, immobilized.

"Lin Zi!"

Shen Qinghan, wrapped in several vines, was abruptly pulled away, leaving Lin Zichen's embrace and immediately cried out in alarm.

Seeing this, Lin Zichen explosively unleashed his Qi Blood and Spirit.

Empowered by Biometric Attributes such as [Immense Strength], [Power], [Forest Lord], [Master of Plants], and more, he broke free from the entangling vines in an instant and flew towards Shen Qinghan at top speed.

However, just as he had freed himself and flown less than a hundred meters, a great number of vines surged toward him, quickly enveloping him in a cocoon that was dense and impenetrable. Enjoy new adventures from empire

"Boom!"

A loud explosion sounded.

The cocoon that had been impenetrable a moment ago was blown apart by a powerful force in a deafening blast, turning into a sky full of flying wood chips.

"Buzz!"

Lin Zichen, with bloodshot eyes and his body enveloped in a red glow, burst out from the shower of wood chips and flew at high speed towards Shen Qinghan, who had been pulled away by the vines.
