Otherworldly Desert Dust

Wu Hen sat there, carefully observing.

The woman used an expensive garment to wipe the blood from her cheeks.

She then poured herself a large cup of ice water and gulped it down, before allowing her nerves to relax.

Once her fingers stopped trembling, she took out a slightly silvery pupil from her pocket.

It was a human eye, still attached to the optic nerve, with fresh blood on it.

Wu Hen was surprised, wondering how such a seemingly frail girl could enjoy collecting eyeballs.

The woman seemed quite familiar with the Secret Study Room; she walked over to the vault where Wu Hen had previously taken the Life Pearl.

Right when Wu Hen secretly celebrated grabbing the Tenth-ranked Life Pearl earlier, the woman did not enter the vault but instead bit open her finger and dripped her blood onto a cup-like decorative vessel beside her.

The blood was bright red, staining the vessel with its outline.

The outline seemed like a special biometric lock, and the lock was reading information from the girl's blood. It seemed her blood matched only part of the biometric information, turning the vessel red and causing a red alert light in the entire Secret Study Room.

At that moment, the girl took out the eyeball she had gotten earlier and lightly placed it on the cup.

The vessel resumed its scanning, and after recognizing the information of the pupil's owner, the red alert light in the Secret Study Room disappeared.

"Click!"

A slot, with unknown material, suddenly opened, revealing a Life Pearl inside.

This Life Pearl was quite peculiar; its small body seemed to contain a vast world, and with just a brief glance, Wu Hen felt the rich core inside.

"Could this be the Super Tenth Rank Life God Pearl!" Wu Hen felt an inexplicable joy in his heart.

Fortunately, he was a fruit enthusiast; because he coveted the plate of fresh fruit in front of the sofa, he lingered here for a while longer.

It turned out that Black Sky Lord hadn't deceived him; he really did possess a Super Tenth Rank Life God Pearl. Remembering the scene where he put someone in the electric chair, a bit of guilt emerged in his heart.

The woman's cheeks now bore a smile.

She took out the Super Tenth Rank Life God Pearl and carefully placed it in her own inner pocket.

Suddenly, intense shaking occurred, causing the lights in the Secret Study Room to fall down.

The woman, like a startled deer, hid on the sofa by the wall.

At that moment, what seemed like an art sculpture moved.

He pinned her shoulders with one hand, then "burst out of the cocoon" with the speed of lightning and snatched the Super Tenth Rank Life Pearl from the woman's pocket.

Although the woman was startled, she desperately protected her pearl.

Unexpectedly, the strange man seized it and swallowed it in one gulp, forcefully swallowing it down.

Right when it entered his stomach lining, Wu Hen's body bloomed like a sunflower, and abundant, crystal-clear Life Divine Silk burst forth from his pores, wrapping Wu Hen, who was already enveloped in a Life Cocoon, in an even thicker Divine Cocoon!

The expansion of the Holy Cocoon was extremely fast, and its powerful "spit silk" ability even swept up the woman in it.

Unable to escape, the woman was devoured by the Holy Silk unprepared.

Soon, an art statue appeared on the sofa.

This art statue, next to another, depicted a domineering CEO-type man attempting to forcefully embrace a petite beauty who was frantically trying to escape, creating an artistic portrayal of the act.

Previously, Wu Hen could still see outside and think.

But this time, Wu Hen felt as though he had laid into a Soul Flower Cabin; his consciousness quickly dimmed.

Unable to perceive the passage of time or have any thoughts or dreams, there was only the feeling of one moment to the next; however, his brain had a general concept, telling him that this duration was not brief.

Wu Hen woke up, his clothes mysteriously gone.

His body had become incredibly perfect, his skin as luminous as sun jade.

He broke free from the Holy Life Silk and found a new robe in the study.

Then, Wu Hen's gaze fell on the woman on the couch beside him, whose clothes had also disappeared; her skin was as sleek and soft as a baby's, her black hair draped over her semi-curled body, perfectly covering her alluring parts, which only added to her beauty.

"Good... they are not wrapped together, just sitting beside each other; otherwise, where would I put my lifetime of reputation?" Wu Hen let out a long sigh of relief.

This Super Tenth Rank Life God Pearl isn't any proper pearl, just evolving people properly. There was no need to melt people's clothes away!

"Do I count as a Super Tenth Rank life now?" Wu Hen began to ponder.

To be honest, overall my body doesn't feel much different than before.

Even the transcendent feeling has faded, and it's similar to waking up fresh and energized in the morning during my high school days when I'd sleep naked, nothing else.

Because I've blocked out other perceptions, Wu Hen can't "examine" the inside of his body.

Let's assume I've reached Super Tenth Rank.

"Who the hell is this woman anyway…" Wu Hen was also extremely puzzled, a woman suddenly appeared out of nowhere and even joined him on the couch for dual cultivation evolution.

Eventually, the woman's Holy Life Silk also loosened, melting away like snow.

The woman's eyelashes trembled, as if she was about to wake up.

Seeing this, Wu Hen hurriedly found another robe and quickly wrapped it around the woman.

He didn't want the woman to misunderstand anything, what if she clung to him claiming something else?

"You... who are you!" The woman confronted first, looking at Wu Hen with fright and anger.

Wu Hen was also staring with wide eyes and countered, "I should be asking you. You snuck in here, holding a Blood Eyeball to unlock the hidden slots, trying to steal the treasures, right?"

"I didn't steal, this thing originally belonged to me!" the woman said.

"The Black Sky Lord was killed by me, everything of his belongs to me," Wu Hen stated.

Hearing this, the woman's expression changed immediately, and she then said somewhat excitedly, "You killed that beast?"

"Yes, if you don't believe me, ask those Mutant Royal Species and Black Angels outside, they can testify," Wu Hen said.

The woman even curled the corners of her mouth, actually perceiving Wu Hen's unserious humor.

"This host... I am the niece of Black Sky Lord Ge Yuan, before I didn't realize it and thought he genuinely cared about me. I never expected he would make me serve a greasy member of the Daxuan Royal Family. I killed that royal member, gouged out his eyeballs, and this Super Tenth Rank Life Divine Pearl was jointly owned by Ge Yuan and that Daxuan royal, so their blood and pupils were needed to unlock it," the woman explained.

"What did you just say?" Wu Hen stared at the woman's face.

"I said I killed a member of the Daxuan Royal Family." The woman immediately showed some wariness, thinking Wu Hen might be associated with the Daxuan side.

"No, you initially said, 'This host… host what?'" Wu Hen pressed immediately.

"Nothing, I meant I was forced to dwell in the territories of these demons," she said.

"Weren't you about to say, 'This host body is the niece of the Black Sky Lord Ge Yuan'?" Wu Hen asked instead.

Hearing that, the woman's eyes filled with shock, her expression unable to conceal her inner confusion and panic.

"Fellow townsman?" Wu Hen also switched directly to his local dialect.

The woman hesitated to respond, but sensed a certain eagerness in the other's gaze.

"I am from the Douyi Star Palace, don't believe me? Look at my Mist Battle Clothing being activated," Wu Hen said, releasing a blue-purple battle garment.

With this unmistakable symbol, the woman finally let down her guard and exhaled deeply.

"Didn't expect to meet a senior from the Douyi Star Palace here. I am Wu Ying Mo Chuan from the Star Palace, senior is..." the woman said.

"Oh, I am Patrol Wu Tian, spending most of my time in Pure Land City, strictly speaking I am not a member of the Douyi Star Palace, just that I also have one of your fighting clothes," Wu Hen said, seeing that she was a genuine member of the Star Palace, and hurriedly also changed his identity.

"Patrol... has it developed to such an impressive level? You even killed the Black Sky Lord, although that guy wasn't very strong, he was surrounded by countless Black Angels," Mo Chuan said.

"Have you been coveting his Super Tenth Rank Life Pearl for a long time?" Wu Hen said with a slightly malicious smile.

Looking at how the Star Palace woman knew her way around here, she must have had a plan made in advance.

"Of course, I've been undercover by his side for so long just to become the only Super Tenth Rank life in our Divine Realm. Then you suddenly appeared, making me... hey, why has my physical data increased by dozens of times?" Mo Chuan's pupils glinted with a flash of light, her Virtual Pupil Membrane seeming to display her current life data.

"Is it possible that we both evolved on the couch, you became Super Tenth Rank, and I became Super Tenth Rank too?" Wu Hen suggested.

Mo Chuan also realized something, her cheeks flushed with excitement, she suddenly ran from one end of the Secret Study Room to the other, instantly turning all the displayed items in the room into dust as if crushed by a great force.

Mo Chuan ran back, but she stuck to the wall above like a beam of light that could bounce rapidly around the room, leaving dozens of streaks of speed light in the narrow space.

"Hahaha, I became Flash!!" Mo Chuan excitedly shouted, her figure flickering rapidly around Wu Hen, Wu Hen couldn't catch her with his eyes, only hearing her words coming from all directions.

Wu Hen showed a look of fondness as one might towards a child, watching her inexperienced joy...

"How is it, you try too, it's so fast, really so fast!" Mo Chuan suddenly stretched out her hand to grab Wu Hen, wanting him to join her in crazy running in this small space.

Wu Hen naturally kept up with her speed effortlessly, although this speed didn't seem too exaggerated with Wu Hen's abilities unlocked.

But considering that his various Divine Skills were based on multiplying his body's abilities, he probably could easily beat ten Green-tailed Gods now when unlocked!
