The magical power of a thousand years of fantasy, the demon king's tribulation?
Gu Yun praised Lin Dong effusively, wanting Lin Dong to forget what he had just said.
But who knew the other party would still make trouble?
What do you mean?
Lin Dong looked at the two with a beaming smile.
Gu Yun wiped away cold sweat and said, “Senior Brother Lin, please don’t misunderstand. Just now, I told you to put down the corpse because I was afraid the two Senior Brothers would be in danger! Why don’t Junior Brother go ahead and scout for danger for Senior Brother first.”
He spoke with righteous indignation.
He had inadvertently seen a neat cut on the Black Mystic Snake's neck, with a terrifying Sword Intent still lingering!
How could he not understand now? There was no struggle between two Yao Beasts at all.
This Black Mystic Snake was killed by Lin Dong alone!
Oh my goodness!
A King Rank Yao Beast has a powerful Physical Body. Lin Dong slaying the Black Mystic Snake, doesn't that mean Lin Dong's combat power is comparable to an ordinary Hua Hai Realm Middle Stage expert?
He truly is a Prodigy!
They couldn't afford to offend him.
The two exchanged glances, their eyes filled with disbelief. Their actions just now were undoubtedly courting death!
Lin Dong was very understanding and nodded with a smile: “I understand, I understand! Thank you for your concern, Junior Brother!”
Gu Yun and Feng Xing gave an embarrassed smile: “It’s good that Senior Brother Lin understands! Then shall we go…?”
Wait!
Lin Dong stretched out his hand: “The points in your tokens are too much. I’ll keep them for you, lest you encounter any danger!”
It’s about reciprocating. You care about me, so I care about you too.
Gu Yun and Feng Xing were helpless; what was coming had finally arrived!
Lin Dong said: “Given the pleasant words you spoke just now, I will only take your points and not eliminate you! As long as your tokens are still with you, you still have a chance!”
If it weren't for their sweet words, like their mouths were smeared with honey, saying many things he liked to hear.
The two would undoubtedly be eliminated.
Helpless, Gu Yun and Feng Xing could only hand over their tokens.
There were still two days until the Assessment ended, so at least they had a chance to try and make a comeback.
But suddenly, Gu Yun seemed to think of something and said: “Senior Brother Lin, I have a massive piece of news to tell you! It will definitely be useful to you! I hope this news can exempt us from our points!”
“You speak first, and I’ll see if it’s worth the price!”
Lin Dong raised an eyebrow, somewhat curious.
Gu Yun said: “We accidentally discovered that the Demon Wolves King is about to Breakthrough to Fifth-Tier and undergo Tribulation to transform. Its strength will be greatly weakened for these two days!”
“Hmm, your news can only offset half of the points.”
Lin Dong’s pupils contracted, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, but he still took half of their points.
He waved his hand, signaling that they could leave.
Gu Yun felt a bit pained, but catching a hint of a strange look in Lin Dong’s eyes, he asked: “Does Senior Brother Lin have any thoughts? Do you need us to come along?”
“Do you really think I’m stupid?!”
Lin Dong waved his hand: “Even if the Demon Wolves King is weakened, it’s not something a Fourth-Tier Peak Yao Beast can contend with, let alone us small Cultivators. Going there is no different from seeking death.”
Gu Yun and Feng Xing left tactfully; keeping their points was already a great fortune!
…
Along the way, Gu Yun and Feng Xing were both somewhat depressed.
They never expected their luck to be so bad; not only did they not get points or a Fourth-Tier Yao Beast corpse, but they almost gave away all their remaining points.
Feng Xing asked: “Did you just tell him the news we risked our lives to get?”
Gu Yun said helplessly: “What can I do? Anyway, this news is useless to us, so why not tell Senior Brother Lin and recover some losses!”
“I guess, with Senior Brother Lin’s strength, he might not be able to resist making a move on the Demon Wolves King! If there’s a chance, we can still get some soup.”
“Gu Yun, I understand you, you’re not that kind-hearted!”
Feng Xing said coldly: “I think you want Lin Dong to go to his death, so there’s one less person, giving us more of a chance to enter the Inner Courtyard.”
“Or, you want to see them fight to the death and profit from it! Snatch the kill?”
“Haha, so what if it is! Brother Feng truly understands me!”
…
Meanwhile, on Lin Dong’s side.
After listening to Brother Dong, Skinny Monkey scratched his head and asked: “Brother Dong, do you really believe them? The matter of the Demon Wolves King cannot be taken lightly!”
He knew Brother Dong wanted to eat the Demon Wolves King’s meat, but his life was more important!
He had heard the Assessment Elder talk about how terrifying the Demon Wolves King was.
The Demon Wolves King is the king of all Yao Beasts in the entire Secret Realm. All Fourth-Tier overlords submit to its demonic might, comparable to a Cultivator’s Half-Step Tiangang Realm.
And Yao Beasts are stronger than ordinary Cultivators; even some Tiangang Realm Elders dare not provoke the other party.
Skinny Monkey naturally didn't want Lin Dong, a Core Formation Cultivator, to take risks, even if the Demon Wolves King was weakened, it was not an existence that their small Cultivators could contend with.
“Of course, I won’t be that foolish!”
Lin Dong shook his head: “Let’s see the situation first! If the situation is true, with my strength, I can really give it a try!”
Lin Dong was half-skeptical of Gu Yun’s words.
The two were not related, and the other party had suffered losses at his hands, so they might be trying to trick him somewhere.
Regarding the truth, he immediately sent a few Demon Wolves to investigate, and he would soon have an idea.
Lin Dong had never eaten the Demon Wolves King’s meat before, and he was very eager.
Half-Step Fifth-Tier should yield a lot of gluttony points! And greatly increase his Cultivation.
Most importantly, for the Demon Wolves King to become the king of all beasts, its Bloodline must be very strong, and it would have powerful Bloodline Legacy Divine Ability!
Skinny Monkey said: “Won’t it be too dangerous?”
Lin Dong: “Don’t worry, even if I’m not the Demon Wolves King’s match, I have other means to retreat safely!”
Skinny Monkey nodded and began to roast the Black Mystic Snake.
After an unknown amount of time, the aroma of roasted meat wafted through the air!
Lin Dong’s eyes lit up, and he specifically roasted and ate the seven-inch part of the Black Mystic Snake.
The Black Mystic Snake’s illusionary attack just now came from its seven-inch mark, and Lin Dong almost suffered a great loss, but he was very eager.
He wondered if there was a chance to gain this Divine Ability!
Lin Dong took a bite of the snake meat. It was tender and fragrant, somewhat like eel meat, but he didn't have much time to savor it at the moment. With a thought, he said:
“System! Use the Daily Divine Ability Card!”
“Ding! The host ate a bite of Black Mystic Snake meat, consumed Daily Divine Ability Card x1, and received a thousand-fold critical strike reward, King Rank Divine Ability — Dreamlike Millennium!”
Dreamlike Millennium: A mental attack type Divine Ability! Unexpectedly, it can make the enemy temporarily fall into an illusion. When Cultivated to a profound level, it can make the enemy sink into an illusion for a thousand years!
“Holy crap!”
“It exploded again, this method is awesome!”
Lin Dong was overjoyed. As he wished, he finally obtained a Divine Soul attack method.
Divine Soul attack methods are extremely precious; even the vast Lin Family does not possess a single Divine Soul Divine Ability.
Only some Sects, aristocratic families, and other powerful individuals have them.
Moreover, even if they exist, they are not something ordinary people can master. Only those with abundant Soul Power and talent in Divine Soul can hope to comprehend and Cultivate them.
And they are even more unpredictable, just like the Black Mystic Snake’s attack today.
If not for the protection of Lin Dong’s Bronze Seed on his Divine Soul, he would have suffered a great loss!
Lin Dong received the Divine Ability and found that Dreamlike Millennium was a type of Eye Technique! With his current Soul Power, it could make an enemy freeze for one second!
The stronger the Cultivation, even a single move or half a move can determine the outcome of a battle.
Not to mention one second, which is enough to decide the success or failure of a battle!
This technique will also become more effective as his Divine Soul strengthens, which is quite good!
Lin Dong started eating again. The essence in the Black Mystic Snake’s flesh and blood was richer than that of the Demon Wolves. He circulated the Devouring Heaven Scripture to frantically refine it.
His Cultivation was rapidly increasing, and he felt the Bottleneck of Core Formation Ninth Stage.
It was a pity that Lin Dong’s spiritual power was too abundant, not inferior to some Hua Hai Realm experts. After eating for a whole night, he still did not Breakthrough to Core Formation Ninth Stage.
But it was still terrifying.
One must know that he had only Breakthrough to Core Formation Eighth Stage this morning.
Lin Dong once guessed that with his Cultivation speed, he would need to seclude himself for ten to eight days before he would have the opportunity to Breakthrough to Core Formation Ninth Stage.
But in just a single day, he already had the opportunity to Breakthrough.
Eating for one day was comparable to Cultivating for ten to eight days.
Lin Dong was dumbfounded. What was the point of Cultivating in the future? Eating Yao Beast meat was faster than Cultivating.
This was the meat of a Fourth-Tier Yao Beast, and it had such an effect. What if he ate a higher-level Yao Beast?
What surprised Lin Dong was that Skinny Monkey could still eat!
After eating and drinking their fill, it was time to sleep!
That night, Lin Dong slept peacefully, with no other Yao Beasts attacking!
After all, there was the Black Mystic Snake’s aura here, so ordinary Yao Beasts wouldn’t come, and other Fourth-Tier overlords wouldn’t casually leave their territory!
The next day!
Roar!
The originally calm mountain range was suddenly broken by an earth-shattering tiger roar, waking countless Yao Beasts.
