Mrs. and Mr. Smith
Chapter 2230

Chapter 2230: Test the waters by oneself Chapter 2230: Test the waters by oneself At this moment, dozens of powerful divine senses locked onto Ethan Smith as if the demonic beasts in this area had already discovered this human cultivator, Ethan Smith.

He hastily approached the Blood River, pulling out a medicinal cauldron to collect part of the blood water.

“Looking for death, daring to take the water from our Bone Refining River!”

In the midst of a profound tiger roar, a Black Tiger aggressively charged at Ethan Smith.

Ethan Smith's divine sense rippled as he turned around and smacked the approaching claw.

“Human cultivator, you're courting death!”

Quixote Titterington completely transformed into his true form, a massive Black Tortoise, even larger than a mountain.

Roar! Four-sided Gravity!

A deep roar emanated from Quixote's mouth, and the space around Ethan Smith began to shatter like glass.

In the space surrounding him, countless minor flashes of lightning continuously appeared and disappeared.

Ethan Smith only felt that the surrounding space was forcefully squashed together. The gravity was pressing down on him from all four directions, aiming to crush him into a pancake.

This was the gravity law Quixote Titterington had comprehended, a blow filled with rage.

Terrible pressure came from all sides. Even after Ethan Smith activated his Saintly Body Skill, he could still hear his own bones creaking, threatening to shatter at any moment.

The spiritual power consumption required to activate the desolate divine eye was too horrendous. At this moment, Ethan Smith had almost depleted all his spiritual power.

“Hoo!”

Ethan Smith took a deep breath, pouring all his remaining spiritual power into his desolate divine eye.

Under the cosmic form, he powerfully punched the weakest point where the gravity crossed, finally breaking through this Four-sided Gravity Space.

A Giant Ape stood on a tree, with blood-red pupils staring at Ethan Smith.

He nonchalantly cut off a chunk of mountain stone, then grabbed that piece of mountain, leaped thousands of feet, and smashed it towards Ethan Smith like the weight of the Tarz Mountain.

If Quixote's attack was considered heavy, then the Giant Ape was agile, and its agility was not weaker than the Gu Carving!

Boom!

The half piece of mini mountain directly smashed onto Ethan Smith's back. Ethan Smith only had time to activate the cosmic form and block with his Pagoda Tree Shield on his back in the last moment.

The cosmic form shattered immediately. The massive force smashed onto the Pagoda Tree Shield and then hit Ethan Smith's back viciously.

Flesh and blood splattered from Ethan Smith's back, not a piece of flesh on his back remained intact, the bones could vaguely be seen.

Ethan Smith spat out a mouthful of blood, he forcibly suppressed the impulse to fall unconscious.

Taking advantage of the Giant Ape's attack, his entire body retreated explosively into the entrance of the Seventh-layer Purgatory.

After finding a safe place in the Sixth-layer Purgatory, Ethan Smith entered the Sumi Space.

After spitting out a large mouthful of blood, Ethan Smith looked like a blood man at this moment.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, pulled out a pill and stuffed it into his mouth, slowly recovering his terrifying injuries.

Little Fatty and Sara sat next to him, hastily mobilizing their own spiritual power, releasing essence for Ethan Smith to absorb.

“This kid is really desperate!”

Elder Baker sighed, this was completely a life-risking cultivation method. If the injuries were a little more severe, there might even be a risk to his life.

In the Sumeru Ring, thanks to Sara and Little Fatty, the space inside the ring was filled with essence that helps recover spiritual sense and life.

Under the operation of the Traceless Heart Lection, those essences rushed into Ethan Smith's body at a shocking speed, and his body slowly recovered.

Only after ten days, did Ethan Smith manage to open his eyes.

“Big Brother, are you alright now?” Two figures squatted in front of Ethan, their eyes wide open as they focus on him.

“Of course I'm fine, Big Brother is the strongest.” Ethan flexed his muscles in response.

“Thank you both.”

Ethan took a bite on each of the two kids' faces. Practicing his cultivation, he realized his mouth was filled with a few droplets of tremendous elemental energy. It was Sara and Little Fatty who bit their own hands and drizzled their blood essence onto Ethan.

The two children burst out laughing. Seeing Ethan unharmed, they ran off to play again.

“Elder Baker, do you know what this is?”

Excited, Ethan took out the medicinal cauldron that contained liquid from the Sea of Blood.

“The Bone Refining River! You've been to the Seventh Layer!”

Elder Baker was shocked.

“Yeah, my last injury was due to a sneak attack by a White Ape.” Ethan replied with some lingering fear.

“That White Ape is the Demonic King of the Seventh Layer Space! Even Quixote Titterington must follow its commands!” Elder Baker fixated on Ethan, continuing to explain:

“In the Seventh Layer Space, there's a Blood River flowing from the depths of Purgatory. The Bone Refining River is what all creatures dream of; it can temper bone and refine flesh. The immense demonic qi can enable a demonic beast to level up directly. There are rumors that Demon Emperor Talon made his final promotion to the Demon Emperor with the help of the Blood River.”

Ethan's eyes sparkled as he listened. If he could temper himself in the Blood River for some time, even if he couldn't temper the bones and refine the flesh, the terrifying demonic qi alone would be able to save him a lot of time.

“The Bone Refining River is the sacred river of the Demon Race. The beasts here are powerful and have developed their consciousness. It's different from the previous six layers of Purgatory. Human cultivators appearing in the Seventh Layer Space will be collectively attacked by the beasts.”

It seemed Elder Baker was aware of Ethan's thoughts and hurriedly clarified things for him.

“Indeed, it's troublesome. If it's just a few beasts, I could still manage.” Ethan shook his head, commenting on the problematic White Monkey as well.

After some hesitation, Ethan immersed his hand into the medicinal cauldron.

Instantaneously, a plume of white smoke arose violently from the point where his flesh and blood came into contact with the water, a wave of intense pain surged into Ethan's divine sense.

Startlingly, his flesh was separating from his bones, and after a while, even his bones were gradually dissolving!

Ethan's face was horror-stricken; he found that the corroding force was following his meridians, surging into his body.

And along with the influx of the blood essence, his meridians were actually shriveling up.

“What's happening!”

Ethan didn't sense any regenerative power;

Before, in the Blood River, those beasts soaking in it had their bodies destroyed, but there was a regenerative force, a newfound power allowing them to regrow even more formidable bodies.

But now, all Ethan felt was raw destructive power.

“Why? Could it be because I have left the Seventh-layer Purgatory? This doesn't make sense either!”

Ethan stared fixedly at the blood water of the Bone Refining River, its aura was now closing in on his heart.

His hands were shrinking like an old man's hands, covered with age spots.

“Pull your hand out quickly, Little Friend Ethan. The Bone Refining River only works for the Demon Race! For the Human Race, it might be deadly poison!”

Elder Baker yelled desperately.

“The Demon Race! Right!”

Ethan's eyes gleamed, his divine sense entered the previously used Breathing Pearl, and he rapidly sucked the demonic qi into his body.

The demonic Qi surged along his meridians into the palm soaked in the medical cauldron, a warm sensation sprouted from the Blood River's water into Ethan's hand.
