Chapter 15

After hearing the sound of someone nearby, Lin Tian didn’t hesitate and quickly hid, concealing his aura.

In this desolate demon beast mountain range, the most dangerous existences weren’t the demon beasts but the human cultivators.

In his previous life, Lin Tian had read many such stories.

Soon, a white figure flashed past the place where Lin Tian had fought with the heaven-shocking python, and Lin Tian happened to be hiding nearby.

At this moment, a streak of flame streaked across the sky like a shooting star.

A breath later, it hit the white figure in front of him.

Bang!

Accompanied by a series of explosions, a streak of flame appeared, illuminating the surrounding spiritual plants and flowers and Lin Tian’s face.

However, no one noticed him.

Thanks to this white light, Lin Tian could clearly see the white figure of a cultivator. It was a young man.

Lin Tian could not see his face clearly as the white light had not appeared for long.

According to Lin Tian’s guess, this person should be a few years older than him.

Rustle! Rustle!

Before Lin Tian could think further, a series of hurried footsteps came.

Although Lin Tian couldn’t tell how many people were there by their footsteps, he knew that there were many of them.

“Wang Shouyun, let’s see where else you can run to.”

Soon after, six more people arrived nearby. The leader, Ye Chenwu, shouted fiercely.

Lin Tian could vaguely see six people: four men, and two women, through the faint moonlight.

These six people were about the same age as the white-clothed cultivator, probably under 20.

Among them, Wang Shouyun’s cultivation was the highest, at the late stage of the Qi and blood realm, followed by Ye Chenwu, who was at the middle stage of the Qi and blood realm.

The other five cultivators were all at the late stage of the Qi and blood realm.

And these people were all around the same age as him, which meant that the other party should be a local prodigy.

This strength was even stronger than Liu Qing, who was in the late stage of the Qi refinement realm a few days ago.

“Bah!”

The white-clothed man who had called Wang Shouyun spat out a mouthful of blood. He stared at the six people chasing him with a disdainful expression and said with contempt,

“Tch, Ye Chenwu, don’t be too arrogant. You’re just taking advantage of the number of people.”

“If you have the ability, come out and fight me one-on-one!”

“Come out and fight me one-on-one!”

When he said the last sentence, Wang Shouyun couldn’t help but Roar angrily.

“Hahaha!”

Seeing Wang Shouyun’s flustered and exasperated look, Ye Chenwu and the other six couldn’t help but laugh at the side.

“Wang Shouyun, are you scared, silly? I have the numerical advantage, so why would I want to fight you one-on-one?”

Ye Chenwu laughed wildly and said, but then he shouted sternly,

“Stop talking nonsense. Wang Shouyun, hurry up and hand over the treasure. Otherwise, even if you are the successor of the Heavenly Sword Sect, you won’t be able to get out alive.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Young Master Wang, you should know that it’s not a rare thing for a heaven’s favorite to die in the Demonic Beast mountain range every year.”

One of the female cultivators in a purple robe said coldly.

“Indeed, the treasure got us into an argument.”

Lin Tian, hiding in the dark, couldn’t help but curse in his heart after hearing their conversation.

On the other side, Wang Shouyun looked at Ye Chenwu angrily. “Wishful thinking.”

“Since that’s the case, you should be prepared to die.”

While speaking, Ye Chenwu didn’t dawdle anymore. He mobilized the spiritual power in his dantian, and the aura around him soared.

Seeing this, the five people around ye Chenwu also circulated their cultivation techniques, releasing their own auras.

For a moment, aura waves surged through the forest, forming several turbulent currents that blew away the fallen leaves on the ground.

The violent air currents swept up the surrounding leaves, causing the leaves on the spirit trees to rustle.

Lin Tian, hiding in the bushes at the side, reached out his hands to grab the branches in front of him, stabilizing them so that his figure wouldn’t be exposed.

Wang Shouyun, who was alone, was not willing to be outdone. His powerful aura burst out with a roar.

Before the two sides had even started fighting, the auras of both sides had already collided and were facing off steadily.

Looking at the almost level situation, it was apparent that Wang Shouyun’s aura was superior.

However, this was only a level of aura. In actual combat, Wang Shouyun still did not have much advantage.

As Ye Chenwu’s figure swayed, the other five quickly attacked Wang Shouyun with weapons in their hands.

Facing the multi-directional attacks of Ye Chenwu’s six people, Wang Shouyun could only defend with great difficulty, unable to find an opportunity to counterattack.

Wang Shouyun had just sent two people’s attacks flying with a single sword strike when the attacks of the four people behind him immediately followed.

This was repeated over and over again.

Soon, Wang Shouyun’s spiritual energy and physical strength were exhausted, and he was at a disadvantage.

Lin Tian, who was watching the show from the side, had already roughly figured out the ins and outs of the incident through eavesdropping on their conversation.

This group of young people was all elites of some factions, and they had specially come to this demonic beast mountain range to train.

That Wang Shouyun was an elite of the heavenly sword sect. While training in the demonic beast mountain range, he had found some valuable treasures, and another group of people had discovered them and wanted to seize them.

Hence, Wang Shouyun was hunted down by another group of people.

“From what these people said, I guess the power behind them is not something I can afford to offend for the time being. I’d better leave.”

Lin Tian looked at the seven people fighting fiercely and muttered softly.

The purpose of coming to the mountain range of demonic beasts this time was to find the demonic core and use it to nourish the spiritual soul to break through to the spiritual soul realm.

Now that he had already obtained the demonic core of the shockingly patterned python, Lin Tian did not want to interfere in anything.

Besides, the few of them were currently fighting, so naturally, they would not pay attention to anything else.

It was a good opportunity to leave. Lin Tian did not know if they would let him go if they found his tracks?

“Let’s go.”

As he said that, Lin Tian turned around and was about to sneak away.

[Ding!]

At that moment, the system notification sounded in Lin Tian’s mind.

[Detected host watching a show. Triggered scenario mission: Help Wang Shouyun escape from ye Chenwu’s pursuit.]

[Mission reward: Xuan Grade 10 consecutive lucky draw * 1.]

“F*ck! Xuan Grade 10 consecutive Lucky Draw!”

Seeing the mission reward, Lin Tian was pleasantly surprised. He could not help but exclaim but quickly covered his mouth with his hand.

Then, he turned his head to look at the people behind him. Ye Chenwu and the others did not hear Lin Tian’s voice. They were still engaged in a heated fight.

When Wang Shouyun, Ye Chenwu, and the others had exploded their auras just now, Lin Tian had sensed that the strongest among them was only in the sea of the Qi realm.

It was just a piece of cake for him.

“It seems that it’s time for me to be kind and helpful again.”

The corners of Lin Tian’s mouth rose slightly, forming a faint smile.
