Chapter 277: Continuous Pursuit
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Name: Lin Xuan!
He fought more than a thousand elites alone and retreated despite the power of the Ancient Divine Beast Array!
The thousands of geniuses who were killed trembled in fear, and their faces revealed fear.
When some cultivators heard this, their expressions changed, fearing that they would provoke such a killing god.
If they were not confident in killing such a prodigy, offending him would definitely be a huge hidden danger. It might even bring a destructive blow to the family in the future.
After this matter, another piece of news spread.
Anyone who could provide clues or help to deal with Lin Xuan and the other guy would be rewarded with ten thousand-year-old spiritual herbs and a human-grade cultivation technique.
After killing Lin Xuan and the small child beside him, they could obtain an earth-rank spirit artifact, dozens of thousand-year-old spiritual medicines, a thousand top-grade spirit stones, and an earth-rank cultivation technique.
Immediately, it shook the entire Heaven Ascension Tower.
For some small families, thousand-year-old spiritual medicines could be considered their family’s heritage. They could not be used without the approval of important figures in the family.
Many geniuses who cultivated to the later stages might not necessarily have a human-rank cultivation technique on them. Although some large factions did not lack this cultivation technique, it was only for the inner disciples. For outer sect or related disciples, they still had to rely on their meager monthly resources to maintain a normal life. They usually lived frugally in exchange for a good cultivation technique.
Earth-rank spiritual artifacts and earth-rank cultivation methods were treasures that moved the hearts of Purple Prefecture experts. They were currently unable to unleash the power of earth-rank spiritual artifacts, but to cultivators, the cultivators who could enter Heaven Ascension Tower had high talent. Breaking through to the Purple Prefecture was only a matter of time.
A large number of cultivators could not help but be tempted by these rewards. The entire Heaven Ascension Tower started to chase after Lin Xuan.
The talent that Lin Xuan displayed made countless people jealous. Moreover, he had many powerful techniques.
As long as they killed Lin Xuan and used the soul search technique, they might be able to become a second prodigy like him.
As for Lin Xuan and the little guy who had just escaped, they did not know these things at all. As they walked under the two crescent moons, Lin Xuan used his pupils to constantly observe the surrounding situation and did not dare to lower his guard.
The injuries brought to him by the divine beast array were too serious. He could not use any movement technique, as that would only worsen his injuries. He could only walk with his feet.
“If it was a one-on-one battle, I would beat them until their parents can’t recognize them.” Huang Hao took out a spiritual fruit and stuffed it into his mouth as he said indignantly.
“They will definitely pay the price.”
“After recuperating for a few days, these injuries will slowly recover. At that time, we have to kill their guts,” Lin Xuan said with a sharp gaze.
On this level of Heaven Ascension Tower, there were countless killing intents that were impossible to guard against. Night slowly descended, and some powerful demon beasts began to move. The two of them did not continue on their way. They grabbed two chicken demons and found a demon beast cave to eat roasted meat.
Afraid that the smell of roasted meat would spread and attract the demon beasts, Lin Xuan specially set up an array formation outside the cave to prevent the aura from spreading.
“How fragrant.” Lin Xuan drooled. Ever since he ate the little guy’s roasted meat in the vast Great Desolate, he had completely remembered this taste. After such a long time, he could finally eat the little guy’s roasted meat again.
The entire cave was filled with a dense fragrance. Looking at the oil stains on the other party’s face, the two of them could not help but laugh loudly.
If others knew that Lin Xuan and the other guy had not escaped the pursuit and were in the mood to eat roasted meat here, they would admire them.
This was too ambitious. They did not take the thousand plus geniuses seriously at all.
At this moment, Lin Xuan, who was eating roasted meat, suddenly threw it aside and grabbed the little guy before retreating.
The powerful force caused the entire cave to collapse, and the air waves swept around.
If the two of them did not dodge in time, they would probably die here.
Where Lin Xuan and the other guy were originally, an Earth Flying Tiger appeared.
The Earth Flying Tiger could be said to be the favorite of the world. Its pair of beast wings could soar in the sky. Its inheritance talent could allow them to roam freely underground, and its speed was extremely fast. It emitted a heavy aura that gave others a sense of oppression.
When Lin Xuan saw this demon cave, there were no demon beasts inside and it was covered in dust. He thought that it was a hole, but he did not expect that there were demon beasts living here.
Looking at the scars on the Earth Flying Tiger’s body, it was obvious that it had fought with the other demon beasts for a long time outside and had just recovered from its injuries and rushed back.
Seeing that its cave was occupied, it entered a furious state.
When the Earth Flying Tiger discovered Lin Xuan and the other guy, it roared and flapped its wings to pounce at Lin Xuan.
“Scram!”
Lin Xuan’s five fingers formed a fist that emitted terrifying spiritual qi, preparing to kill this demon beast in one strike.
He was injured now and was not suitable for a long battle. If he caused a commotion and attracted the pursuit of other prodigies, although Lin Xuan was not afraid, it did not mean that he had to risk his life at this moment.
At this level, the Earth Flying Tiger had long gained spirituality. Sensing Lin Xuan’s terror, it let out a roar and immediately flew into the sky. It flapped its wings and emitted waves of air. The trees around the cave were shattered, and the cave collapsed, as if an earthquake had happened.
Lin Xuan’s pupils were constricted. This Earth Flying Tiger was actually a demon beast at the Purple Prefecture Realm. This was going to be troublesome.
He had originally thought that the Circulation Sea level demon beasts in Heaven Ascension Tower were already at the peak, but now, there were Purple Prefecture level demon beasts. If he was at his peak, Lin Xuan would not take him seriously. However, now, he might attract people to chase after him.
“Little guy, attack together and end this quickly!”
Lin Xuan turned around and looked at the little guy. The little guy realized the seriousness of the matter. He threw the roasted meat in his hand and attacked together.
…
When the two geniuses of the Circulation Sea saw the reward for chasing Lin Xuan, their hearts could not help but move. At this moment, they were searching for Lin Xuan in the night.
“Young Master Tian, although the Murong family is not comparable to the Ying family, these things are probably not bad, right? Why did you still chase after Lin Xuan?” The person who spoke was one of the geniuses invited by Ying Zhao. He happened to encounter the Murong family’s Murong Tian. After knowing the goal of both sides, the two of them immediately walked together.
Murong Tian looked at him and sighed, “To be honest, my Murong family’s ancestor was heavily injured in a dangerous spot. The only spiritual medicine he needs is from the Ying family. We came to ask for medicine many times, but the Ying family ignored us.”
“This Ying Zhao is deeply loved by the Ying family’s ancestor. Perhaps we can use this opportunity to ask for that spiritual herb for my Murong family’s ancestor.”
His words revealed helplessness.
A large family like the Murong family looked powerful. Once the pillar of the family died, the families who were eyeing the Murong family would swarm over and they were very likely disappear overnight.
The other person nodded. The halo in his hand instantly lit up.
It immediately attracted the attention of the two of them and made a mark.
“Lin Xuan is nearby.. Let’s hurry over and not let him escape.”
