Chapter 482: 482, [I’m taking your head]

Although Lu Xun pays attention to the Great Sacrificial Rite’s possible visit to the Eastern Region, he has no intention of doing anything about it.

After all, the Great Sacrificial Rite is a level 90-something existence, the Eastern Region wouldn’t be different with or without Lu Xun.

On the contrary, Lu Xun has a high resentment value from the Foreign Race. He might attract most firepower and might need protection then.

After killing a small batch of wandering Foreign Race near the Three Thousand Mountain Area, Lu Xun returned to the Three Thousand Mountains with Mao Nanbei.

Having previously purchased so many Skill Books, he had some weeds to reap, so to say.

The war of the Three Thousand Mountains were over for now and the players had ample Experience Points on hand. If not now, when would he reap?

Most importantly, Lu Xun just played the hero at the Three Thousand Mountains, and the players were still fired up. In a bragging manner of speech, their feelings could be expressed as- they idolize him as a god!

In this scenario, many people would impulsively consume.

Some players might already have plenty of practical skills but run over to learn just to make contact with the Purple Palace.

Luckily, the skills taught by Lu Xun are highly cost-effective and practical, chosen with great care, so there won’t be any harm done to the players.

At the foot of the Tianque Gate there’s a small group of players gathered, having a barbecue.

No doubt, the high-quality eating experience is an important factor that makes “Heavenly Dust” attractive.

The desire for taste is one of the biggest desires for modern people.

Many people are disciplined in reality, not daring to eat recklessly, but…the craving though!

At least in “Heavenly Dust” those concerns doesn’t bite, the complete authentic eating experience lets players enjoy without the trouble of getting overweight. Pretty sure it’s a dream come true experience for many.

“Have a try of this leek. It’s good for you, for vital energy.” a player suggested.

“You’re the one who needs it more than me.” another player retorted.

“Ah, true enough. Let’s boost it on a spiritual level then!”

“I’ll rain blows on you!”

As they were chit-chatting, the longswords on the side suddenly started trembling intensely.

“What’s going on?” They looked at each other, puzzled.

Soon, they saw a man in a black cloak descending from the sky.

In no time at all, the once deserted wilderness teemed with players as the news of Lu Xun’s appearance spread.

With a professional fake smile on his face, Lu Xun gave an approachable feeling. He commanded the players to form a line, and like a fan signing event, he gestured to proceed one by one, and then lifted the invisible scythe behind his back.

By the end of an afternoon, Lu Xun had reaped nearly 60 million Experience Points.

Having left the place, Lu Xun found another spot and upgraded his character level to 60!

Lu Xun couldn’t help but sigh looking at his character panel.

At this moment, his upgrade button had temporarily turned gray.

It means that even if he had enough experience points, he won’t be able to upgrade.

“I knew it I have to undertake promotion quests after all.”

A prompt soon appeared before his eyes.

“[Ding! The system is evaluating your overall strength, please wait!]”

“[Current progress: 2%]”

Advancement quests will be judged according to personal strength, if you’re a strong player the task will be harder, while regular players will have it simpler.

The progress was being made slowly, it’s clear that Lu Xun’s overall strength was off the charts, taking the progress bar aback.

– This guy is amazing!

After almost ten minutes, the progress bar was finally at max.

“[Ding! You have met the requirements for promotion. Do you want to accept the promotion quest?]”

Without hesitation, Lu Xun chose to [Claim].

Having claimed, Lu Xun checked the task details and chuckled, “High expectations indeed, they want me to kill a Foreign Race creature of no lower than level 75.”

Level 60 killing level 75, that’s hell difficulty.

However, in promotion quests teaming up is allowed, so Lu Xun can ask for help, only he has to deal more than 60% of the total damage or else the system will judge it as non-compliant.

“A level 75 Foreign Race, as long as it’s not the formidable underground type, with the little Loli assisting me, is good enough.” Lu Xun was still pretty confident.

But… it’s not easy finding a level 75 Foreign Race.

…

…

In the southern part of the Eastern Region, there is a small area called Flame River.

The reason it got its name is all of the mountains here are dead volcanoes.

The so-called dead volcanoes refers to those that erupted in prehistoric times, but not in historical times.

On the Heavenly Dust Continent, the standard is set in the Ancient Times, so a volcano that hasn’t erupted since until now would be considered ‘dead’.

Many Fire Sects prefer to establish their Sects here as it benefits the practice of Fire Techniques.

Not many altars were established by the Foreign race here, so even during the third arrival, the number of Foreign Race that arrived here were fewer compared to the Three Thousand Mountain Area.

But at this moment, the battle at Flame River hasn’t completely ended yet, it’s reaching the end

Because the Cultivation Sects over here are few in number and mostly Fire Cultivators which makes their composition quite monotonous. To be blunt, such homogeneity isn’t suitable for a mass fight.

One of the Peak Masters of the Demon Sect, Gongshu Pan was present here.

He’s originally from here.

Every disciple of Yan Li was carefully picked during her travels around the world in her nearly accomplished Sword Dao times. Therefore, each disciple comes from different corners of the earth.

Among them, only Yan Shu, the senior sister, and the current Sect Master Shen Yan, come from the Eastern Region.

So, when called for help from various parts of the continent, these Peak Masters would prioritize their home turf. It’s only human nature after all.

Because, the people of the Demon Sect has always been pretty down to earth, without much immortal aura, and the things they care about doesn’t really differ from that of normal mortals.

Naturally, home is among those things.

At this moment, Gongshu Pan waved his sleeve, sending a high-level Foreign Race creature flying. Suddenly, he turned to look at the distant.

The air instantly twirled, just like the twisted flames above a brazier.

And in that instant, a tall boy with a large felt hat appeared in the air.

He raised his left hand, gently pressing on the hat above his head, then looked up at Gongshu Pan with cloudy eyes.

“Walking empty-handed to the Demon Sect seems inappropriate.” murmured the Great Sacrificial Rite.

Then, he looked at Gongshu Pan, his face with a twisted grin, saying:

“I want your head.”
