A sweat dropped from Lin's forehead looki at Hei's antics as he just laughed awkwardly as for the reason why he accepted the alliance was because he knew from his previous memories that how dangerous was the Devil's lair which had the mortality rate of 93% and having a strong subordinate to look after each other's back was a good thing.

3 days have passed as the three people traveled, eat and cultivated together which helped them became a good friend and due to their cultivation using the 6th rank spirit stone which Lin gave to the two of them Lumi to reach Mortal incarnation 4th rank and Lin reached Earth king 7th rank but Hei was unable to advance still he became a little stronger. Hei was surprised by the speed of their cultivation which led him to ask about it but Lin dodged the question using their potential and talent as a excuse.

Though it was also the reason but it was trivial as they had the best cultivation technique which can even make a mortal without any talent or potential in minimum a True Emporer.

They reached the city before the Devil's lair as they booked 3 rooms in a good inn. Another week passed as their friendship and closeness grew by the day. The day had come when the Devil's lair will open as both Lin and Hei got ready as the three of them went to the city gate because the door will open a little further away than the city.

At the gate, Lin and Lumi looked at each other as Lumi hugged him and said "please come back safe I don't want to loose you too". Lin smiled slightly as he patted her head and said "Don't worry there is nothing in this world that can kill him" and his words were not false as only cultivators of Earth Emporer 9th rank and Lin had the battle power of a Heaven Seeker 2nd rank.

Hei interjected "Hey you two don't you see a single person here anyways If your lovy dovy interaction is finished then we can head out". Hearing Hei's word Lumi let go of Lin hesitantly while blushing as Lin nodded and went out of the city gate with Hei as Lin turned back and waved his hand. Lumi was not going in the Devil's lair as her strength was not sufficient so Lin didn't took her with him. After the figure of Lin and Hei banished Lumi turned back and went to the inn with the determination of becoming stronger and Lin had left 400 6th rank spirit stone for her cultivation.

After thirty minutes of walking, They reached a place where many cultivators were present and it was crowded. "Looks like we are ahead of time" said Hei as Lin responded with a simple "Yes" and after waiting for another 30 minutes the ground started shaking as it felt like the ground was beating like a heartbeat which caused the rubbles to go up and down and the ground split open in 20m*30m as a square portal came up from the split and it lit blackish purple as the cultivators started to flood in and Lin and Hei followed as well.
