Chapter 551: Chapter 284: This is My Spiritual Pet_1

During the subsequent tracking process, Lin Yi found that the direction indicated by the Minor Blessing State seemed to be heading straight towards the Xuan Tian Realm. Could it be that Zhi Ling’s parents intended to cross the Monster Forest and enter another Cultivation World?

Generally speaking, the Golden Core Great Monster in the Monster Forest would not lightly leave the forest. This is because every part of a monster beast is precious—its inner core, flesh, and fur all are of great value, especially for those beyond the Golden Core Realm, they are exceedingly rare.

If they step out of the forest and into the Human Cultivators’ world, they might be besieged by Human Cultivators. This principle is the same as when Human Cultivators enter the Monster Forest, they get attacked by beast monsters.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and decided to continue tracking in the Monster Forest. Even though he had almost left the deepest part of the forest, directly teleporting to the Xuan Tian Realm as the Invincible East could potentially raise unnecessary suspicions.

As for transforming into the Pedestrian A persona that is exclusive to the Xuan Tian Realm, it wouldn’t work either. The Pedestrian A had always demonstrated the Golden Core Realm. If he showed overly powerful strength, it might again raise suspicions.

Therefore, crossing the Monster Forest was the most appropriate route.

According to his guess, Zhi Ling’s parents were also chasing something, which led them in the direction of the Xuan Tian Realm.

Therefore, he needed to speed up. He needed to reach the destination before Zhi Ling’s parents formally entered the Xuan Tian Realm from the Monster Forest, otherwise, trouble might arise.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Yi accelerated to his maximum speed, equipped all the titles that increased speed, and simultaneously operated the strong divine sense of the two Nascent Souls to evade the hidden dangers in the forest.

Thus, he soon officially entered the outskirts of the forest belonging to the Xuan Tian Realm side, leaving the depths of the Monster Forest.

As he rushed on his way, he saw some places showing signs of a battle, as well as the lingering lightning aura left by the Lightning Minks’ Divine Skills.

Also, traces of flying swords and spells indicated that what Zhi Ling’s parents were chasing after were not monster beasts, but cultivators from the Xuan Tian Realm.

If he analyzed the aura that the Lightning Mink left behind, it seemed that one of the Lightning Minks had entered the Bone Refining Stage, which is equivalent to the human Nascent Soul Realm.

The other one was still in the Golden Core Realm.

Now, Zhi Ling had also become a Golden Core Great Monster, catching up to the Realm of its parents. Of course, this was only possible due to the awakening bloodline effect of the shit shovel officer title, which enabled its cultivation to be so quick.

Otherwise, for a monster beast to become a Golden Core Great Monster, it would not be possible without more than three hundred years of cultivation.

Judging by the aura left from the battle, the cultivators of the Xuan Tian Realm were likely three Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, two early-stage and one mid-stage.

Moreover, the direction indicated by the Minor Blessing State that he found several times was not a straight line to the Xuan Tian realm. The change in direction in the middle should be due to the deviation caused by the battle.

However, what baffled Lin Yi was why Zhi Ling’s parents kept chasing after these cultivators. Even if they had plundered the precious spiritual grass and spiritual medicines in the forest, it was impossible to chase them all the way to the Xuan Tian Cultivation World.

So, there’s only one possibility left: something most precious to Zhi Ling’s parents had been stolen, and it was very likely a Lightning Mink cub.

The Lightning Mink is small and cute. Other monsters grow larger with age, but the Lightning Mink remains petite.

There are even rumors that after a Lightning Mink undergoes a Crossing Tribulation Transformation, it will turn into a cute child.

Furthermore, Lightning Minks are incredibly powerful, and their speed is generally two to three times faster than cultivators of the same Realm.

Previously in the Xuan Tian Realm, he saw more than one bounty task for a Lightning Mink cub, and each time the reward was offered by some prominent sects, some of which were even issued by the Dao Ling Zong.

So, this could explain why Zhi Ling’s parents had pursued relentlessly.

If it was as he guessed, he must stop them before they enter the Xuan Tian Realm.

Lin Yi further increased his speed. He didn’t sense the aura of the Lightning Mink cub within the battlefields they passed through. It’s likely that the cub had been taken into a Spirit Pet Bag.

After entering the outer part of the forest, he transformed into a ray of light and flew over the forest from the sky. Without any obstacles, his speed became incredibly fast.

He continuously probed the area ahead. He didn’t detect any trace of cultivators in the sky. Even though it was just the outskirts, there’s still a significant risk for flying without the strength above the Golden Core.

As for why Zhi Ling’s parents and some unknown cultivators didn’t cross over from the sky, the reason was straightforward.

It is due to some obstacles in the forest that the power of the Lightning Mink is unable to be fully utilized. Once they get to the unobstructed sky, the power of the Lightning Mink can be better exercised.

Of course, these are assuming they have reached Golden Core Realm, and they can easily use their lightning divine skills. Otherwise, if they’re human cultivators at the Foundation Establishment or even Qi Refining Realm, they’d lack the ability to utilize their power for long periods. It’s faster for them to rely on trees for landing.

Before long, Lin Yi’s strong divine sense detected sounds of fighting in the distance ahead. He patted Zhi Ling’s head, “Zhi Ling, I’ll put you back into the Spirit Pet Column for now. I’ll let you out after things have settled down.”
