Chapter 324: 324, [Grim Reaper]

At a specific place shrouded by toxic fog above Lost Forest.

A monster, around ten meters long and resembling a giant mantis, was flying in the air, with a man who had a feminine appearance sitting on it.

His face bore an unhealthy pale look, yet his lips were very rosy, even to the point of being bright red.

His lips were thin, his eyes cold, giving off an indifferent vibe.

This individual was the foreign race man, Yin Tian.

He had been in the poisonous fog of Lost Forest for three full days and nights now.

“According to current intelligence, Lu Xun is a Sword Cultivator, the first thing he did after entering the West State was to visit the Monument of West State. He even initiated the monument’s inheritance and acquired something from it.”

“The Monument of West State is considered holy by sword cultivators, so as a Sword Cultivator who has received the inheritance, Lu Xun must pay another visit to the monument before leaving the West State, to show respect.”

“So, if he is to leave West State, he would undoubtedly fly in the direction of Lost Forest.”

This was Yin Tian’s speculation.

Though it deviated slightly from the actual situation, the end result was spot on.

As for how he calculated the approximate time Lu Xun would leave West State?

The reason was that Lu Xun was accompanied by Ji Li.

The internal promotion examination of the Demon Sect was approaching and Ji Li had to attend it. So, he estimated Lu Xun’s return to the Demon Sect from there.

A meticulous calculation, barely any room for error.

Unless… Lu Xun let the girl go back to the sect by herself and continued to stay in West State.

If that’s the case, Yin Tian would have to wait here a little longer.

But it didn’t matter, he had plenty of patience.

“You only have yourself to blame for being too famous. Your every move quickly becomes known throughout the world, there is no need for additional investigations,” Yin Tian thought to himself.

Although there were many cultivators who came to adventure and look for herbs in the Lost Forest, it definitely could not compare with the populated West State.

Moreover, with his power, as long as he didn’t encounter a Great Cultivator at or above the eighth realm, dealing with one Lu Xun should not be a big problem.

As such, the Lost Forest was an excellent place to take action.

At this moment, Yin Tian was holding a crystal-like object in his hand, closing his eyes and sensing his surroundings.

Within the crystal, black fog-like energy was swirling around. It helped to extend his Divine Sense, allowing him to better perceive everything around him and forming a slightly vague image in his mind.

Soon, Yin Tian sensed a flying paper crane in the air, along with the man leading the way on the crane.

The black robes, the sword sheath, and the impeccable looks…

Lu Xun was too easy to recognize.

“I originally thought the rumors exaggerated, but he really is exceptionally handsome.” Yin Tian stuck out his tongue, licked his red lips.

“Oh, there’s even a cultivator at the sixth level?”

“What a pity, he’s running into me,” he mused.

However, the next moment, a strange scene occurred.

For some unknown reason, Lu Xun suddenly turned around and started rapidly flying towards West State!

“What’s going on?” Yin Tian was baffled.

The scene was reminiscent of rushing back home after realizing something was forgotten upon stepping out.

Yin Tian dared not chase after him towards West State.

Bearing in mind that West State was the One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain areas, with this territory silently watched over by the Great Cultivators of the two major Sword Sects.

He was too strong; if he appeared in West State, he would be noticed instantly.

After all, the two major Sword Sects were not weak, having several practitioners at the seventh or even the eighth level.

If he were to attack Lu Xun within the borders of West State, he’d likely come under attack from the two major Sword Sects.

It would definitely not be safer than in Lost Forest.

“Stop him,” Yin Tian immediately made a decision.

He took out a chessboard-like object from his bosom, tossed it up in the air.

An illusion began to spread around to seal the surroundings.

“You can’t escape,” he patted the mantis-like creature beneath him and started to rapidly fly towards where Lu Xun was headed.

Lu Xun was manipulating the paper crane, flying towards West State at top speed.

However, an illusion was even faster than him.

The shadow enveloped the entire area like a cover, sealing it off completely.

Lu Xun’s eyes narrowed, not knowing the reason behind it, but he was fully aware: something was amiss.

The danger level given in the prompt was labeled as “Extremely Lethal”, the highest level of danger.

This signified that the opposer was extremely capable, capable of instantly killing someone!

Whether Mao Nanbei could take on the adversary was unclear to Lu Xun, but she probably wouldn’t be able.

This was because the little girl was right by his side, and the two of them were in something similar to a “team mode”.

Under such circumstances, being given the “Extremely Lethal” warning meant that the opponent’s abilities were truly terrifying.

Mao Nanbei glanced at the shadow that resembled a cover, frowning slightly.

“Such a strange prohibition,” she remarked.

The bells on Mao Nanbei’s wrist emitted a ray of light, morphing into two short knives.

She hacked forward vigorously, yet her strike only left a crack on the shadow, it didn’t completely shatter it!

Mao Nanbei’s expression turned somber, she knew that she had come across a formidable entity.

“What’s happening! Last time when I went down the mountain with Little Junior Brother, the opponents were too strong for me. And this time, I’ve made a breakthrough and went down the mountain to find him, yet the opponents are still too strong!” She actually felt somewhat wronged.

Despite her thoughts, her motions didn’t cease.

“Attack!” Lu Xun shouted, striking at the barrier together with Lin Chan and Ji Li.

In a few moments, they tore a rift in the barrier.

Right at this moment, Yin Tian had already arrived at their location.

In his hand, he held a massive scythe.

Reminiscent of the Grim Reaper, reaping life.

As Lu Xun looked at the newcomer, his heart skipped a beat.

He recognized this person!

In his previous life, by the time he had transmigrated, the battle with the foreign race had already reached the middle-late stages.

Many formidable characters among the foreign race had already made their appearance.

There were players who had posted on the forum, introducing and summarizing the powerful ones among the foreign race.

The reason why Lu Xun recognized Yin Tian was not only because he had seen him on the forum but also because when he was playing as the character Explosive Temper Great Cane Hero, he had died at Yin’s hands twice during one of the battles.

When playing “Heavenly Dust”, this was definitely equivalent to a Boss Level existence.

Belonging to those who wouldn’t die even if the players ganged up on them!

His level was definitely above 70, equivalent to a level seven Great Cultivator!

And most likely even above level 75!

“He has already descended to the Heavenly Dust Continent so early!?” Lu Xun was shocked.

He couldn’t understand why the other person was waiting for them here, and why he had aggressively attacked everyone.

However, this was not the time to think about these things.

Mao Nanbei held a knife in each hand, prepared for heavy combat.

“Let’s go!” Mao Nanbei said to Lu Xun.

Lu Xun looked her in the eyes, then resolutely steered the paper crane to quickly fly in the direction of the Western State Border.

If they stayed here, they would only drag Mao Nanbei down and distract her attention.

Mao Nanbei left the paper crane, hovering in mid-air, slashing her knife at Yin Tian.

Although there was a gap in their powers, she must not lose in terms of momentum!

“I’m going to slice off your head with one cut!”

The intense Knife Gang was generated, as if capable of slashing everything in its vicinity.

Yin Tian wore a slight smile, gently patting the foreign beast that resembled a giant mantis under him, signaling it to chase after Lu Xun.

He, in the meantime, held the gigantic scythe, and his figure vanished in an instant.

By the time he appeared again, he was already behind Mao Nanbei.

Mao Nanbei’s pupils constricted, not having enough time to react.

The scythe that emitted a glaring black light swooshed forward, aiming for Mao Nanbei’s waist, striking across.
