Chapter 1505 Two-Legged Sheep

Before long, sounds pierced the air and figures came one after another.

They stopped dead in their tracks when they noticed Ding Shanhe standing there.

“Brother Ding, why are you not chasing after him?” asked a white haired man in gray.

His appearance was sinister and ruthless.

He was clearly a Saint!

Ding Shanhe swept a look over him and then glanced at the others nearby. “It is rumored that there are creatures more terrifying than the spirit refinement ancestral trees in the depths of the forest. That kid likely won’t return from there.”

Everyone else’s eyes flashed.

The reason that they chose to stop was because they also sensed an eerie and blood-curdling aura permeating the atmosphere.

“Who was the attacker?” someone asked curiously.

“A young man from the Ancient Wasteland Domain who has yet to reach the Saint Stage, but he has clearly set foot onto the supreme path and possesses a cultivation base of the ninth longevity tribulation stage. We must not underestimate him.”

Ding Shanhe did not hide anything and told them what he saw and knew.

“In my opinion, the boy is most likely a leading figure of the younger generation of the Ancient Wasteland Domain. If he’s killed, it will be a heavy blow to the Ancient Wasteland Domain camp!”

The others nodded.

They had no respect for cultivators of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, but they had to attach importance to opponents who had set foot onto the supreme path.

As far as they knew, not many people in the Ancient Wasteland Domain camp had set foot onto the supreme path.

If the attacker was not a supreme leading figure, then how could he shake off their pursuit?

“Then does that mean we are very likely going to catch a big fish this time?” Someone’s eyes gleamed and was itching to get into battle.

Someone else put a damper on things with some figures. “During the pursuit, that boy eliminated four groups of experts.

“Among them, thirty-seven were ordinary longevity kings and nineteen were longevity experts who had set foot onto the supreme path!

“In addition, He Fangyun, a peerless figure from the Golden-Winged Dragon Crane Clan had also been killed by the kid!

“Now, do you still think the kid is a big fish for us to catch?”

The speech was met with stunned silence, and everyone’s expressions turned more or less solemn.

During the conversation, more and more people gathered around.

This was the territory of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain, and the Spirit Refinement Forest was a well known land of dangers. Naturally, many cultivators were drawn over when they saw She Meng’s request for help.

“Of course he’s a big fish!” someone suddenly exclaimed, catching everyone’s attention.

A slender man with a pretty, feminine face and long pale green hair parted the crowd as he walked forward with his hands behind his back.

Behind him, a woman in red followed his every step.

Le Mujin!

He was a successor of the Hawk Kite Demon Clan, a fierce character on the supreme path.

Even the Saints present such as Ding Shanhe restrained their auras and gave a respectful nod of their head when they saw Le Mujin.

They were real True Saints.

But once Le Mujin became a Saint, he would be a Supreme True Saint!

Moreover, Le Mujin had a superior identity and status. The Hawk Kite Demon Clan was one of the ten major clans of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain and also one of the strongest.

As soon as Le Mujin appeared, he pointed to four Saints and commanded, “You...you...and you, come with me to track down the attacker.

“The rest split up and block off the area. If anyone lets their guard down and the big fish escapes, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Simply speaking, he was arrogant and bossy.

But no one dared to retort.

Even the Saint-level cultivators chose to remain silent.

They were not from the same clan as Le Mujin, but they belonged to the same camp. If Le Mujin had devised a strategy, it was not appropriate for them to ignore it.

“Feng Pingzi, come and lead the way.” Le Mujin ordered.

Swoosh!

A Black-Striped Demon Wasp around the size of a thumb flew out and suddenly transformed into a girl in black with billowing black mist swirling around her.

“Alright, I also want to see how strong the leading figure of the Ancient Wasteland Domain is.” Feng Pingzi, the girl in black, readily agreed.

“Young Master Le, that’s the depths of the eerie Spirit Refinement Forest. In the previous Conflict of the Nine Domains, many Saints had never returned after stepping into there. Are you sure you want to go in?” Ding Shanhe questioned, frowning.

“A two-legged sheep from the Ancient Wasteland Domain had the guts to go in, so why won’t we?” Le Mujin’s expression turned ice-cold. “If you’re afraid, just stay here. When I see She Lin, I will let him know about your performance.”

Ding Shanhe’s expression subtly changed, then he drew a deep breath and said aloud, “Young Master Le, you have misunderstood. I am just kindly reminding you that if you really plan to go in, I will accompany you.”

Le Mujin said nothing else and darted into the depths of the forest with the girl called Feng Pingzi leading the way.

Additionally, four Saints including Ding Shanhe and the woman in red also followed after him.

“Everyone, let’s also take action!”

The other experts split up and began to block off the area.

No matter who they were, the leading figure from the Ancient Wasteland Domain was doomed.

......

Meanwhile, Lin Xun’s entire body tensed up as he moved forward without stopping, but his pace had evidently slowed.

The depths of the Spirit Refinement Forest became increasingly quiet, and the air was permeated with a fear-inducing aura.

In ordinary situations, Lin Xun would have turned around and left without hesitation.

But this time, he had to grin and bear it.

He had no escape route.

Huh?

Before long, he suddenly noticed his field of view widening and growing clearer. The towering ancient trees that obscured the sky and sun also were no longer in sight.

On the vast area of land sat an immeasurable abyss, and a spatial crack was floating in the sky above the abyss.

From a distance, it looked like a rift had torn through the sky, generating a raging spatial storm, and a terrifying light was shining through the crack.

Lin Xun immediately halted and surveyed the surroundings. The road ahead was blocked by a vast and strange abyss, and it was impossible to go around it.

It was also impossible to travel by air because of the spatial crack above it. Even Saints would not dare to cross that!

“Could this be the hinterland of the Spirit Refinement Forest?”

Lin Xun peered at the abyss from afar. Despite it standing still and silent, it still caused a grip of fear in him.

It was as though unimaginable dangers were lurking at the bottom of the abyss.

It did not take long for Lin Xun to determine that the strange, fear-inducing aura that saturated the area came from the abyss.

“Master...” Little Silver cried out in the mind-sea.

But before he could finish, Lin Xun interrupted, “Let’s talk later.”

Then, he turned around and his dark eyes darted into the distance like a bolt of lightning.

“What an interesting place! The most dangerous place in this forest is under that abyss, is that right?”

In the distance, Le Mujin was strolling leisurely with his hands behind his back.

He ran his eyes across the scenery and finally his gaze landed on Lin Xun who was standing not far from the abyss, and he gave him a faint smile.

“My name is Le Mujin and I come from the Hawk Kite Demon Clan. My purpose in coming here is very simple: I want to test the strength of a supreme figure from the Ancient Wasteland Domain.”

The woman in red, Feng Pingzi, Ding Shanhe and the others appeared behind Le Mujin one after another, all staring at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun nodded, his expression indifferent.

He knew that the other party was so confident and in the mood to talk nonsense because they were certain that he was in a predicament.

“Everyone move aside!”

As Le Mujin marched forward, a ten-foot-long jet-black rod as thick as a child’s arm appeared in his grip.

At the same time, a monstrous aura spread outwards from him, causing his long green hair to billow around him and his clothes to whip about.

Ding Shanhe wrinkled his brows. In his opinion, they should rush forward together and eradicate the target right away instead of having a one-on-one battle like now.

The girl in red told the others, “No one is allowed to interfere. Let my young master have some fun first. Maybe after he gets rid of the two-legged sheep from the Ancient Wasteland Domain he will contently head to the City of Protection.”

The others did not object and just stood there, thinking that Lin Xun had no chance to escape anyway.

“Did you hear that? No one will disturb us.” A bright smile graced Le Mujin’s pretty face.

Lin Xun thought about it for a while before asking, “What does two-legged sheep mean?”

Le Mujin was taken aback for a moment, then his smile widened into a grin. “It’s exactly what it sounds like. In the eyes of the eight domains, people from the Ancient Wasteland Domain are all two-legged sheep.”

“Sheep to be slaughtered?”

Lin Xun’s black eyes were cold. He also smiled, but his smile was colder than ice.

This was the first time he heard cultivators from the Ancient Wasteland Domain being looked down upon in such a humiliating way.

“Are you angry? But the truth is that your Ancient Wasteland Domain is too weak. All of you are no different from an animal to be slaughtered. It’s not just me, but all the experts from the eight domains think so,” Le Mujin explained in a serious tone.

Then, he launched into an attack!

Boom!

The moment he acted, he seemed to have become another person, emitting a violent and ruthless aura. He swung up an iron rod and smashed it barbarically at Lin Xun.

The space roared and surging dao light crashed down like the stars in the sky together with the long rod.

That strike alone showed how terrifying he was.

Even the Saints watching the battle from afar marveled to themselves. This is a genius talent on the supreme path; his solid foundation is beyond imagination.

Facing that blow, Lin Xun simply raised his hand and seemingly effortlessly caught the rod in midair as it swung down at him.

Huh?

Le Mujin’s eyes narrowed. The power of his strike was enough to destroy mountains and frighten the majority of people in his generation.

But it was firmly clutched in his opponent’s hand!

He...

Everyone’s heart thudded, and their expressions changed slightly.

“You only have this little ability, yet you dared to show off in front of me?” The corners of Lin Xun’s lips curled.

As he was speaking, he gathered power to his hand.

Buzz—

The long rod bended and twisted as if being torn by a mighty force, producing a whine that stung everyone’s ear.

Without any hesitation, Le Mujin abandoned the rod, swung up his right arm, forming a hand seal and aimed it at Lin Xun’s head.

But Lin Xun was quicker than him. His left hand lunged out in the air like a bolt of lightning and launched a dazzling azure palm strike.

Bang!

Le Mujin charged over fast, but he left even faster, blasting across the air by the palm strike.
