Chapter 296: Chapter 288: Opening the Sky Finger

Translator: 549690339

When He Song discovered the Evil Cultivator he had been searching for a long time.

This evil cultivator had just ambushed a cultivator and was stuffing the other party’s storage bag into his clothes.

At the same time, this person was also preparing to destroy the corpse, making the cultivator who died unjustly disappear from this world.

He Song, who was several miles away from the scene, immediately rushed over after sensing divine sense that a murder had taken place.

Very soon.

By the time He Song’s figure arrived at the scene.

The evil cultivator had just finished destroying the corpse, and was getting ready to leave.

“Stop.”

Following a cold shout, He Song’s figure appeared at the scene.

At this moment, He Song’s clothes had been changed from a black robe to the steward’s robe of Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

He Song had once served as a steward of Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion for a period of time.

Naturally, he kept a steward’s robe from the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion in his storage bag.

Originally, He Song intended to preserve it as a recollection.

Unexpectedly, the robe came in handy at this moment.

Apart from He Song’s robe from Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, his cultivation level was also revealed to be at the ninth-tier Qi Refining stage. With the ninth- tier Qi Refining level and this robe from Bamboo Mountain immortal Pavilion,

Even if He Song stood within the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, no one would likely doubt his identity.

This cultivation level and this robe were enough to prove He Song’s identity.

And as He Song’s voice sounded, the evil cultivator who had just burnt the corpse and was preparing to leave quickly, immediately discerned He Song’s identity based on these things.

Seeing He Song’s gaze linger on the ashes on the ground for a moment,

The evil cultivator’s expression changed instantly.

A sense of foreboding flashed through his heart.

“I am Lin Dong, fellow daoist, are you calling me?”

However, at this point, Lin Dong did not panic, but instead showed a puzzled look on his face, turning his head to look at He Song.

At the same time, Lin Dong pointed at the ashes on the ground and quickly continued.

“Actually, I just arrived here, I heard a scream from this place, and hurried over.”

“Unfortunately, this fellow daoist still met with tragedy.”

“Sigh. ‘

With Lin Dong’s words, his footsteps subtly moved away from the ashes.

It seemed like he wanted to make room for He Song to come forward and observe the ashes.

But He Song noticed that although Lin Dong had given way, he would have to expose his back to Lin Dong if he were to actually come forward.

By then…

A chill flashed through He Song’s heart as he looked at Lin Dong.

In front of him was Lin Dong,

His cultivation clearly revealed under He Song’s divine sense.

He was merely a seventh-tier Qi Refining practitioner.

It was precisely because of this early knowledge that He Song revealed himself to be at the ninth-tier Qi Refining stage.

But what He Song didn’t expect was that Lin Dong didn’t flee after seeing him, and even tried to ambush him.

Evil cultivator, truly an evil cultivator.

Every move was aimed at creating the perfect opportunity to attack.

However, it was a pity.

His opponent was not somebody else, it was He Song.

As a Foundation Establishment Master, He Song naturally wouldn’t take these tricks seriously.

His purpose in searching for so many days here wasn’t to punish the wicked and eliminate evil.

“Humph, courting death.”

“Stone Breaking Finger!”

With a pretentious cold snort, He Song didn’t waste words and directly used a middle-grade attack skill he had learned during the Qi Refining stage.

Stone Breaking Finger was a skill He Song had learned during the Qi-refining mid stage but had never had a chance to use.

But now that he was putting on a show, he had to put on a full act.

By using Stone Breaking Finger, he merely wanted to injure Lin Dong in front of him, making him flee after being injured.

With He Song’s cold snort,

A thick golden light shot out from his fingertips, instantly piercing through Lin Dong’s body.

Even after piercing Lin Dong’s body, the thick golden light continued to shoot towards the distance, landing on a mountain and leaving a pitch-black hole. At the same time. Lin Dong’s body violently retreated under this strike. flying

more than ten meters away.

The man lay on the ground, barely able to crawl up.

Fortunately, He Song held back, not using mana to cast Stone Breaking Finger.

Instead, he controlled his mana to transform into spirit power and used spirit power to cast Stone Breaking Finger.

The power of Stone Breaking Finger was reduced to a certain extent.

So it wouldn’t kill Lin Dong with a single strike.

However, due to He Song’s cultivation level, this strike didn’t kill Lin Dong but scared him out of his wits.

Lin Dong, who was currently paralyzed on the ground, swore.

He had never seen a Stone Breaking Finger with such terrifying power before!

You call this Stone Breaking Finger?

Isn’t this more like Heaven Breaking Finger?

Just casually pointing, a child’s arm-thickness of golden light shoots from He Song’s fingertips.

With a single strike, it directly penetrated his entire body, and even sent him flying more than ten meters.

It even left a bottomless, dark hole on the faraway mountain.

You call this Stone Breaking Finger?

He would believe it if it was called Heaven Opening Finger!

At this moment, Lin Dong even felt the illusion of facing the might of heaven.

He felt the huge wound on his body, the size of a small child’s arm.

Lin Dong struggled to retreat, trying to escape from He Song’s location, but his limbs were soft, and his body couldn’t move at all.

In a fit of rage, Lin Dong’s vision darkened, and he almost fainted on the spot.

But before he could regain his senses,

The sky in front of him darkened quietly at this moment.

“Are all the Evil Cultivators so tough nowadays? Knowing that they’re not opponents, they still don’t run away.”

As He Song’s voice came,

Lin Dong’s eyelids twitched, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw He Song staring at him.

At that moment,

Lin Dong felt something more in his mouth, which melted as soon as it entered.

As a torrential spirit power burst open in his body, Lin Dong felt full of strength.

Not knowing where the strength came from, Lin Dong subconsciously turned around and fled desperately into the distance.

Seeing this scene,

He Song, who had just shoved a Great Spirit Elixir into Lin Dong’s mouth, nodded approvingly and chased after him at a leisurely pace.

The plan he had long thought out in his heart was now set in motion.

As the Steward of Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, a ninth-tier Qi Refining cultivator, it should be quite reasonable for him to pass by that mountain valley while hunting down evil cultivators, right?

As long as He Song didn’t detect any divine sense and expose his real cultivation level,

With the Breath Concealment Skill hiding his cultivation, even divine sense probing could only reveal He Song as a ninth-tier Qi Refining cultivator.

However, with He Song’s mastery of array tao,

If there really was an array in the mountain valley, he would know it at a glance.

It’s just a gaze, not divine sense probing, so even if there were people inside, there would be no need to worry about being discovered and causing trouble.

In this way, he could both investigate any unusual occurrences in the mountain valley and hide himself to prevent being discovered by others.

It was simply the best of both worlds.

If there was nothing unusual in the mountain valley, He Song would naturally leave at once.

But if there was an array there, He Song would naturally proceed with caution and see if he could seize some opportunities from it.

Moreover, the Evil Cultivator he was chasing was a heinous criminal.

After passing through the mountain valley and not using it, killing him wouldn’t be an unacceptable thing.

Everyone should be able to execute an Evil Cultivator.

This was an idea that had sprung up in He Song’s mind back at the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

Now, with He Song’s cultivation at the mid-stage Foundation Establishment, killing a few Evil Cultivators naturally wouldn’t put any psychological pressure on him. Chasing all the way, No.

Rather than chasing,

It was more like driving.

He Song constantly adjusted Lin Dong’s escape direction, making him head towards the mountain valley.

At the same time, in order to make his hunt for the Evil Cultivator more believable, He Song occasionally launched an attack to try to stop Lin Dong. As a result, He Song and Lin Dong continued their cat-and-mouse chase,

Under He Song’s guidance, the two quickly left the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion and headed for the mountain valley known to He Song.

On the way, in order to prevent Lin Dong from pulling any tricks and not following his plan, He Song showed no mercy while attacking.

In Lin Dong’s view, the person chasing him from behind had intended to kill him all along.

Under such a life-and-death situation, Lin Dong naturally didn’t dare to delay as he continued to escape.

Although he didn’t understand why He Song didn’t continue using the Stone

Breaking Finger to finish him off,

But having been defeated by He Song’s Stone Breaking Finger before, Lin Dong had no thought of fighting back.

Moreover, his injuries,

Were gradually healing under the constant repair of the Great Spirit Elixir.

But every time his injuries were almost healed, He Song would thoughtfully launch another attack, causing him to be injured again.

As this cycle continued,

Though Lin Dong still didn’t know He Song’s real purpose, he gradually gained some understanding of his behavior.

He felt that He Song was like a cat playing with a mouse,

Temporarily not wanting to kill him, just wanting to toy with him.

With these thoughts in mind, while Lin Dong continued to flee for his life, he quietly resolved in his heart to find a chance to escape He Song’s hands and thwart his cat-and-mouse game.

But what he didn’t know was that He Song was not playing cat and mouse at all.

He never played such games.

All he did was to achieve his own plan.

After passing by the mountain valley and finding out the situation inside it, Lin Dong would naturally be of no value.

When that time came,

It would be the moment of Lin Dong’s death.

As their figures gradually moved away from Bamboo Mountain Immortal

Pavilion and approached the mountain valley known to Lin Cong,

Lin Dong’s countdown to death quietly began, ticking away with the passage of time.

But at this moment, Lin Dong was still silently swearing in his heart, determined to escape He Song’s pursuit and spoil his cat-and-mouse game..
