Geniuses

Molten rock flowed all around with incredible force, spiritual ores were mixing and being crushed at an incredible speed, but this was nowhere near enough for Ling Chen.

"Too weak," mumbled Ling Chen as he looked for any way to go further down in the cave, after seeing that there was no way to go further downwards, Ling Chen dove into the pit of molten lava.

After a few minutes of swimming, Ling Chen reached the bottom of the magma pool, where the heat was somewhat higher, but still, he was not yet satisfied

Ignoring the relatively warn magma touching his skin, Ling Chen used both his limbs and qi to begin digging into the rock below, even though this rock was much tougher than normal, even being able to resist the heat of the magma, Ling Chen still annihilated meters of rock in mere seconds as he searched for higher temperatures.

After around two months of non-stop digging, Ling Chen found it, an enormous cave with a humongous lake of lava in the middle of it.

Even right where he stood, several hundred meters above the lake, the temperature was even higher than at the lowest point of the previous lava lake.

Suddenly, and without hesitation, Ling Chen jumped into the middle of the lake, his abnormally high body weight causing lava to splash several hundred meters in al directions.

"Finally," mumbled Ling Chen as he found what he had been searching for several thousand Li below the surface.

Feeling that the lava was able to slightly burn his skin, Ling Chen smiled before beginning to swim even deeper as every part of his body was repeatedly burning and regenerating.

Ling Chen used his spiritual sense to navigate the lake, as his eyes repeatedly burned and regenerated, causing Ling Chen horrifying pain.

But even so, Ling Chen did not close his eyes, allowing his relatively fragile eyes to to burned to a crisp by the lave, only to regenerate moments laters.

Extremely hot magma, tens of millions of degrees hot, that is even able to melt most spiritual ores poured into Ling Chen's body through his ears, nose and sometimes his mouth as he opened it to let out a laugh.

"This is what I have been searching for!" shouted Ling Chen as he let out a satisfied laugh, causing more and more lava to pour into his body, his body which was already horribly strong after his transformation into an elemental being, began transforming once more under the baptism of the lava.

Feeling his body being constantly refined, Ling Chen smiled before beginning to swim even deeper into the lake, sinking to unknown depths.

...

"Where could they have gone, go find them," shouted an old cultivation, causing the several hundred other cultivators in front of him to flinch and fly away mere moments after and begin searching for those two people.

But sadly even after searching for several months, no trace of the thieving duo was ever found, but even so, hundreds of cultivators continued searching for them, even hundreds of years later.

"This really is convenient," said Ling Yun as she looked at the large number of spatial rings that she and her brother had just finished sorting through.

There were so many of them, that an entire section of the sibling's void boat was used for storing them, of course, only a small part of them were actually filled up.

"I feel like making so many enemies is quite a bad idea," mumbled Ling Fan as he took out several useful treasures from one of the spatial rings.

"They were the ones who antagonized us first, might as well make them regret it," said Ling Yun as she controlled the void ship to make sure it stayed close enough to the three thousand regions

"I guess so," mumbled Ling Fan as he continued looking through the treasure.

"System, exchange these for system points," thought Ling Fan as thousand several treasures that were not useful to the siblings silently disappeared.

[Yes host]

Mere moments later, a large number of system points appeared on Ling Fan's interface, but even so no change in expression could be seen on Ling Fan's face.

After sorting through their newfound treasures, the siblings once again returned to the Three Thousand Regions, of course, they traveled quite a distance away as to not meet the people they had previously robbed.

...

Looking at the large door before them, several hundred martial artists suddenly stopped in their tracks.

Before any of them could do anything, they suddenly appeared in an open field which they could not see the ends of.

"The one who manages to pass this trial will obtain the inheritance of my master Thunder Fist Martial Saint, while those who are deemed to have enough potential will also get rewards," said an extremely powerfull mechanical voice causing discussion to begin in the group of several hundred martial artists.

"The inheritance of a martial saint," mumbled Yuan Jianjun as a fire lit in his heart, his eyes then scanned over the group, he completely ignored the vast majority of martial artists, as they were only Martial Masters or Grandmasters, rather he focused on the two other Martial Kings in this expedition.

"These are my competition," thought Yuan Jianjun as he looked at the extremely powerful and tall Gao Lei and at the dangerous He Qiao.

Unconsciously the other martial artists made way for the three, causing them to be able to stare at each other, their malice for each other becoming almost physical even though they were on good terms just moments ago.

As this confrontation was taking place, everyone ignored a silent middle-aged Martial Grandmaster, unlike most others, he did not desire the inheritance of this Martial Saint, rather the resourses were much more attractive to him.

"If I get these resources I should be able to reach the Qi refining realm, then I should be able to roam this world unfettered, and later, maybe I could even return home," thought Meng Ling as she hid behind the mask of this unassuming middle-aged man.
