116: White moon?

"By the way, do you have a name, or should I give you one?"

"Xiao Bai? Xiao Miao? Xiao Mi?"

Lin Chuan chatted with the Calamity Demon Spirit as he walked.

Watching it constantly flash through the forest, Lin Chuan felt extremely envious.

Although the Void Sword could also teleport a few hundred meters, it couldn't be used so freely; the little spirit's consumption was too great.

"No, I'm called Bai Yue Meow ~"

"Bai Yue?"

Lin Chuan murmured. "Black Moon" would be more accurate.

Although the black mark on his hand had completely disappeared, Lin Chuan still felt lingering fear.

"Who gave you that name?" Normally, wild Yao Beasts wouldn't have names.

"I don't know, Meow, it's just what I'm called."

...Perhaps because Bai Yue was in a good mood, Lin Chuan walked for a while and hardly encountered any powerful Yao Beasts. In a way, this turned into a kind of luck.

"Lin Chuan, the other party is flying this way, oh."

Bai Yue kindly reminded him, probably wanting Lin Chuan to take her Meow Meow special ride again.

Lin Chuan had already sensed it through the Gray Snake. Although the Gray Snake was using Soul Spike without regard for consumption, the rank difference was simply too great.

Initially, it could force the opponent to stop and rest for a while, but then the effect became less and less obvious.

"This isn't a solution! ...Bai Yue, can you teleport me out of the Secret Realm?" Seeing the distance getting closer, Lin Chuan suggested.

"I can, oh! But I can't guarantee you'll be in one piece, Meow."

Lin Chuan: "..."

Alright, he took it back.

From the Gray Snake's perspective, the old man was standing on the back of that large Moth, flying rapidly. It would probably take less than twenty minutes to catch up to where Lin Chuan currently was.

Recalling how the Moth had scattered a lot of powder on him earlier, Lin Chuan naturally knew the opponent's tracking method.

"Bai Yue, later, teleport me to where you used to live, by that lake, alright?"

"I can, oh, for 3000 fruits, ~o(=∩ω∩=)m"

"..."

Can you eat that many?

Lin Chuan only had over ten thousand energy fruits left. At this rate, if he couldn't quickly shake off the pursuit, his fruits would be depleted today.

Fifteen minutes later.

Lin Chuan could already vaguely see the large Moth in the sky. He gave a middle finger to the sky, then had Bai Yue teleport him again.

"Damn it!" The old man completely lost his composure.

He had chased for a long time, finally getting close, only for the Moth to tell him that the target was now 300 kilometers away again. Even at full speed, it would take over an hour.

He had never imagined that a mere Silver Rank would be so troublesome. Even some Diamond Rank opponents, he had killed before.

Today, to be defeated by a Silver Rank was a complete humiliation.

More importantly, the organization had expended a lot of resources and hidden connections for this mission. If they couldn't achieve results, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, the old man vaguely regretted it. If he had gone directly to find the other two, he might have already succeeded... Fortunately, three Diamond Rank individuals were dispatched at once this time; failure was absolutely not an option.

As things stood, he could only follow this Dao to the end. Lin Chuan's potential far exceeded the organization's expectations and he absolutely could not be left alive.

Moreover, the remaining time did not support him changing targets.

Before long, the situation in the Secret Realm would be known to the outside world... In fact, this was already happening.

In addition to the three Diamond Rank individuals, ten Gold-rank Beast Tamers also entered the Secret Realm.

Their mission was to have their Beast Tamers disguise themselves as Yao Beasts in the Secret Realm and indiscriminately ambush any students or Beast Tamers.

In fact, the priority of killing Beast Tamers was higher than killing students.

As long as the Beast Tamer died, even the most talented student would essentially bewaste (useless).

Moreover, the impact of a Beast Tamer's death would be lower and would not immediately attract attention.

A full forty Commander-level Demon Beasts, acting with purpose and splitting up, hunted a group of students who were at most Silver Rank.

In just a few hours, several hundred students were ambushed.

Initially, the base staff didn't pay much attention; casualties were considered normal.

However, as the number of eliminated students continuously increased, someone finally realized something was wrong.

It was now the latter half of the examination, and those remaining were all Geniuses, so why were the casualties even more severe?

Either the Beast Tamers died, or the students died... "Thorough investigation! Not a single one can be let go!"

"Yes!"

Through data analysis, the anomaly was quickly identified.

The monitoring team, equipment team, R&D team... everyone was taken away for questioning.

Gradually, a large net targeting this College Entrance Examination slowly surfaced... It even seemed to involve a King-rank individual?

Although it was only suspicion, it was enough to make everyone involved in the investigation gasp.

Even more serious was that Diamond Rank powerhouses were wantonly slaughtering in the Secret Realm.

This news was conveyed by Long Chenhao. Originally, he was also found by a Diamond Rank powerhouse, but he had a life-saving Dao item given by his Family. At the cost of serious injury, he endured one blow and then forcibly teleported out, suffering considerable injuries.

As for Xia Siye, no one could find him at all.

"Emergency notice, emergency notice... The examination will end early. Everyone, please teleport out..."

Instantly, among the living examinees in the Secret Realm, only Lin Chuan remained. Everyone else had either been teleported out or would remain there forever. If they were lucky, their bodies might still be found...

After Lin Chuan was teleported to the lakeside by Bai Yue, he originally wanted to jump straight in for a bath. After some consideration, he took off all the clothes he was wearing, then jumped directly into the lake, rubbing mud all over his body. He even haphazardly cut off most of his hair to ensure nothing was left to chance.

Then he had the little spirit use Sword Armor Armament and Illusion Sword Art.

Lin Chuan first rubbed some plant sap on his body, controlling the Sword Armor to become an opaque full-body armor.

Then, he controlled the Clone to put on the clothes he had just taken off.

"Bai Yue, teleport him far away from the lakeside," Lin Chuan shouted into the air.

"Okay, Meow, it can be half price, oh," Bai Yue instantly appeared, saying happily.

Now, her business was getting more and more prosperous.

Although Lin Chuan was her only customer, it was a classic case of making enough money in one go to last half a year.

Bai Yue curiously looked at Lin Chuan and his Clone, then prepared to teleport.

"Wait a moment," Lin Chuan stopped her, thought for a moment, and said, "No, it can't be on land."

Then, using a sword blade, he cut off a section of a tree trunk and had the Clone hold it.

"Throw him into the center of the lake!"

Lin Chuan pointed to the boundless water area opposite.

"He'll be eaten by the big guy, oh," Bai Yue reminded him.

Lin Chuan didn't know what she meant by "big guy," possibly fish in the water. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"It's fine, then don't teleport him yet. When that old man is about to arrive, let him watch you teleport me into the lake, alright?"

"Okay, it's so fun ~o(=∩ω∩=)m"

Bai Yue agreed readily, not knowing what fun she had thought of.

Lin Chuan threw the rest of his items into the lake, weighing them down with a stone, then walked towards the place where the collapse had previously occurred.

An earthquake had happened there before, splitting the entire mountain open, with a giant deep pit in the middle.

For the rest of the time, Lin Chuan planned to be a lurker.

He didn't believe that such a big incident could happen without the outside world knowing. Once that old geezer was dealt with, if Old Black recovered, Lin Chuan even planned to farm another wave.

There was no other way; without one or two death fruits on him, he always felt uneasy...
