Lin Diao probably thought his cultivation was so much stronger that the Immortal Olive Fruit was of no use to him anymore. Even so, after a moment of thought and he started to calm down, he started to doubt as he looked at her.
"Do you think I'll take the fruit for myself?" Luo Tian asked.
"What if you did that?"
Even if it couldn't increase his cultivation, it could still be sold at a high price.
"Maybe I'll do that. I can give the boy a little so he can break through to level 2," he replied calmly.
Since he couldn't deceive him, he could only tell the truth.
"You have to be aware of your position. I could spread the word to people."
Lin Diao's expression turned bad again.
"You really can't be trusted. I'm not sure you won't continue to blackmail me," he said.
"Hah, you overestimate yourself. Is there anything else of value you have besides that information? In fact, I could be considered helping you and your nephew. Now whether you want this help or not, you better answer quickly. I don't like wasting time here."
Luo Tian's tone became colder, his personality disliked discussion and debate, he just wanted others to immediately obey his words.
Lin Diao gritted his teeth before replying.
"Let's go back to the village first, at least wait for me to recover my strength. This is my limit, I won't tell you unless I come along."
"OK."
Luo Tian agreed to his request.
In addition, he needed to prepare and set up several star formations to fight the beasts guarding the Immortal Olive Fruit.
They quickly returned to the village, no one knows why they conflicted and are now back together. What people knew was that there was a young and strong expert who had come to their village.
Lin Diao was recognized as the best genius in the village, he was already the strongest at such a young age. Many believed that he would become immortal in the future. But he lost to someone who looked younger so many assumed he was a noble from a large clan.
They would cry if they knew his real age.
In his room, Luo Tian started to set up a star formation.
Stars appeared above the village, they radiated energy that flowed into the restaurant where Luo Tian was.
The existence of a star master in the dark realm wasn't as rare as in the nirvana realm, in fact many were born with star essence so his status as a star master wasn't too surprising to people.
Two hours later, something that looked like a star-shaped gem condensed in front of him. The stars are visible in it.
He was sweating a little, but he showed a satisfied expression when he saw that.
"Even a peak sovereign beast wouldn't be able to do anything if it was trapped inside this formation," he said.
It's a trap formation. After he finished making that, he made another formation.
It was also shaped like a star, but within it were thousands of swords ready to strike.
"Star formations are indeed something to be jealous of, unfortunately they can't last long," Yingyue said.
The reason why they couldn't last long was because they needed stellar energy, unlike ordinary formations which could be energized with energy stones. And it was impossible for star masters to use all of their time to continuously replenish their formation energy.
Now he had to continue to control the star energy to feed the energy into the two formations so they wouldn't dissipate.
"Oh, I wonder if it is possible for the star formation to be maintained without having to do this," said Luo Tian.
"There is no record of it, but there was a rumor in ancient times that a star master who reached the grand paragon realm could do so. But, the truth is, from ancient times to the present, no star master has reached that level."
"There is no?"
Luo Tian was slightly surprised.
He had never heard of it, that was because formations regarding the grand paragon realm were indeed rare.
"There really isn't," Yingyue replied.
"Is it that hard?"
"I don't know. The highest one is only level 16, equivalent to a high-level paragon. However, those who actually reach the highest peak of level 16 can set up formations that threaten a grand paragon."
"Paragon level threatens grand paragon, so it's still possible?"
"Yeah, but only in this realm. Even the first Heavenly Emperor, if he lowers his cultivation to a level nine paragon, he won't be able to fight the weakest grand paragon."
"First heavenly emperor huh."
Luo Tian couldn't help but remember the light-covered figure he had seen in his dream.
"By the way, do you know about the Goddess of Darkness?"
He heard that name from Lin Dong and Lin Diao, she was also the one who spread that bloodline, her role in the dark realm seemed to be enormous.
"Well, she is the Grand Paragon of the Dark Palace, and she is the daughter of the Dark Emperor, the strongest grand paragon of the current Dark Heaven. He is an ancient being that belongs to the same era as the first heavenly emperor. He rarely shows up, so it's his daughter who manages the Dark Palace."
"He lived until now and has a daughter who has become a grand paragon. Then how does his strength compare to the current Heavenly Emperor and Dragon Emperor?"
"He may be on par with them, but he relies on laws, not bloodlines. As far as I know, he understands the four laws that reach the pinnacle. It is precisely his existence that makes the four realms not dare to attack the dark realm if there is nothing important."
"Four? Doesn't that mean he can turn into four grand paragons."
...
A while later, Luo Tian left the restaurant.
It was now night, the village was so quiet that he could hear the sound of dripping water.
He went to Lin Diao's house. When he got there, the latter had just recently come out of his house. Lin Dong was also at his house. But the boy was still injured.
Lin Diao closed the door of his house and said, "let's go!"
He wore a cold expression and only stared at him for a while before turning his gaze to the west.
He then flew into the sky.
Luo Tian followed behind him.
Even the nights are quite hot there.
In the sky, there was only one moon, but it was so big that it looked like a mountain. It covered ten percent of the sky.
Even the night there was quite hot.
Lin Diao was flying quite fast, he knew he was maintaining the star formations so they had to act quickly.
They passed through many dunes. Under the dunes, Luo Tian saw many huge creatures hiding.
Some opened their eyes when they saw them, but they closed their eyes again when they saw their speed.
The trees began to appear, there were olive, date, trees, and other desert trees. The trees grew taller as they went further and further.
Luo Tian could sense a lot of sovereign aura in the area. After arriving at the area, Lin Diao began to slow down his flying speed.
