Chapter 2417: Heading to the Purple Clouds Sea (1/2)

No matter how heated the outside world became, Huang Xiaolong retained his speed of killing off twenty experts every day. He devoured their saint attributes the moment the battle ended, and not a single part was left wasted.

Several more months passed.

Finally, Huang Xiaolong emerged from the Devil Cave.

Behind him were the disciples of the Holy Heavens along with Elder Zhang Sijin in charge of protecting the Devil Cave.

The bet Huang Xiaolong had made with Li Chen and the others had already spread through the lands thanks to Xie Yao and the others fanning the flames. However, his reputation didn’t drop in the few months he spent in the Devil Cave. In fact, his prestige started to grow after they witnessed how quickly he improved.

The disciples following behind him stared at him with expressions of reverence along with a trace of fear.

“Elder, you all should return.” Huang Xiaolong waved his arm and spoke to those behind him.

“Yes, Your Highness.” Zhang Sijin didn’t dare to ignore anything Huang Xiaolong said. He bowed respectfully, but he spoke up all of a sudden, “Your Highness, will you be visiting the Devil Cave anytime soon?”

Huang Xiaolong nodded when he saw that Zhang Sijin was reluctant to see him go. “I’ll come back soon for a drink.”

The look on Zhang Sijin’s face turned into one of pure joy, and he quickly replied, “I’ll prepare all the best wine in my collection when you drop by again!”

Huang Xiaolong chuckled and patted Zhang Sijin’s shoulders before leaving.

How could someone like Zhang Sijin endure a pat from Huang Xiaolong? He felt his bones going soft and even after Hung Xiaolong disappeared, he remained kneeling on the ground.

Only after a long time did a disciple approach him. “Elder Zhang, His Highness has left….”

Snapping awake from his beautiful daydream, Zhang Sijin reluctantly returned to the Devil Cave.

Huang Xiaolong didn’t waste time as he returned to his residence immediately.

This time, he had used up all his contribution points. Even though he found it a pity, he knew that his points were well spent. After devouring the saint attributes of the prisoners in the Devil Cave, he had managed to achieve his goal. His three saint godheads, saint bloodlines, and saint physiques had already reached the fortieth rank.

If he counted all the disciples in the Holy Heavens, there were less than twenty percent of them with saint attributes ranking in the top forties.

However, Huang Xiaolong wasn’t satisfied with the jump in rank.

“I have to push them into the top thirty ranks as soon as possible…,” He thought to himself.

His combat abilities would skyrocket every time he increased his saint attributes’ rank by ten. The higher his saint godheads ranked, the faster he would cultivate!

If he managed to evolve them to the point they reached the top ten ranks, Huang Xiaolong was confident that he would be able to seize the Saint Fate when it appeared even if he failed to obtain the Cangqiong Holy Pill.

Any godhead ranked in the top ten would possess terrifying power. If all three complete dao saint godheads reached the top ten ranks, Huang Xiaolong would be a terrifying presence!

Of course, pushing them into the top ten ranks was easier said than done.

Even if he managed to obtain unlimited contribution points, the number of prisoners in the Devil Cave wouldn’t be enough for him to increase his godheads’ ranks!

A frosty light soon flashed in his eyes. “It seems like I should take a stroll around the branches of the Devil Palace….”
