After leaving the Flying Cloud Palace and arriving in a deserted area, Lin Xuan’s smiling face quickly disappeared, only to be replaced with a gloomy look, eyes flashing with a murderous intent.
After standing quietly for a moment, Lin Xuan did not speak, but Elder Ma made a deep impression in his heart. He is unable to act now, but in the future when he has the strength……
Lin Xuan soon heard the sound of approaching footsteps, his gloomy expression quickly disappeared as he looked up with the same as usual.
“Haha, that trash Lin Xuan is given two bottles of trash.”
“What’s so strange about that? Trying to become a cultivator with no spirit roots, and then trying to take our purifying pills… trash pills for a trash cultivator, isn’t that fair?” the other man laughed, talking about Lin Xuan without a care as they passed him.
……
Lin Xuan seemed not to hear them, looking as calm as usual. He cannot afford to act on impulse, being impulsive is only for fools, since they dare to insult him he will simply remember and wait…..
The important thing now is to raise his cultivation, as only the strong were important. His original plan was to rely on the effects of the purifying pills to break through the bottleneck of the second layer, but now after silently staring at the two bottles of trash pills in his hand, he turns around and walks out of the valley.
Without the pills, most people, even if they cultivated in the inner area, would find it hard to break through to the second layer with just their own efforts. Lin Xuan, after thinking for a while, decided to once again test his luck.
In a place not far from the valley entrance, there was a small canyon with a hidden entrance that was long forgotten. Lin Xuan discovered it by accident, and he could occasionally find rare herbs growing there.
Although it was rare, Lin Xuan got lucky and found some thousand-year herbs that could help promote the cultivation speed.
After careful consideration, he realized that the herbs were his best bet to break through to the second layer of Spirit Condensation as soon as possible, and even if he couldn’t find any herbs, he wouldn’t feel too bad, because he doesn’t really lose anything since it’s just a backup plan. Lin Xuan quickly arrived at the exit of Whirlwind Cloud Valley.
After leaving the sect behind, Lin Xuan didn’t go to the canyon right away. Rather, he aimlessly wandered around to prevent anyone who might be following him. He didn’t want anyone else to be at the canyon taking the rare herbs away from him.
After wandering around aimlessly for over an hour, and making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he quietly left the road and found a rarely used, winding trail, leading into the secret canyon.
So beautiful, a vibrant meadow filled with flowers with a fragrant smell spreading into the air. It was truly beautiful, but Lin Xuan was not here for sightseeing, so he went straight to the center of the canyon, looking to see if he could find any rare herbs.
Some time passed, and still, Lin Xuan found nothing, but even so, he didn’t give up and kept searching for even a small plant.
However, at this moment, he heard the sound of faint voices, and after a slight pause, Lin Xuan quickly jumped into the nearby bushes to hide.
A red light could soon be seen approaching from a distance.
“Pat, Pat.” Two people landed in the canyon, in a spot not too far from Lin Xuan.
“Master, we need to tend to your injury!” A young woman exclaimed with a concerned voice.
Through a gap in the bushes, Lin Xuan saw them wearing the Whilrwind Cloud Valley Sect uniform, Lin Xuan however did not go out to meet them, deciding to let this scene play out.
“*cough*, I’m still alive, Yan-er, are we at Whirlwind Cloud Valley yet?” asked the old man weakly in a somewhat familiar voice, making Lin Xuan wonder who this Elder is.
“Don’t worry, master, the school gates are only a few miles away, and the enemy does not dare to pursue further.” stated the young woman.
“Good, good.” The weak voice sounded relieved yet in pain.
“Master, please take a rest!”
With the sound of rustling clothes, the woman leaned the wounded old man against a tree and helped him sit. Because of the angle, Lin Xuan finally got to see their faces.
“No wonder they sound familiar.”
As he watched the old man sitting on the ground, looking about 40 years old, possessing strong features and exuding an aura of power, however at this moment, the old man’s face was pale, and his chest bloodstained, Lin Xuan looked at him coldly, making him wonder just what could wounded him to that extent.
Zhang Yu, who was the one who just two weeks ago taught the disciples how to use the Spirit Shield spell, he was already at the Foundation Establishment mid-stage and was one of the elders of the outer sect.
Lin Xuan also recognized the woman, Zhou Yan, who entered the school just a few years before him, and was considered a genius among the young generation of disciples, and it would be no surprise if she achieved the Foundation Establishment Stage in just a few more years.
They were both important figures to the sect, but then just what could make them flee like this?
In just a few moments, Lin Xuan concluded that, although he was curious about what was going on, it would be best if he stayed hidden.
Those two were obviously trying to keep this a secret, so if they saw Lin Xuan, they would kill him without hesitation, it is simply the Law of the Jungle, the world of cultivation is cruel to the weak, and Lin Xuan did not want to die just yet.
After all, one was a mid-stage Foundation Establishment expert and the other, a peak Spirit Condensation disciple. If they wanted to kill him, even when injured, it would be like stepping on an ant.
After analyzing their current strength level, Lin Xuan didn’t dare to breathe, he just wanted them to quickly leave.
“Hey, you!”
Lin Xuan’s heart stopped, did she discover him?
But without waiting for him to make a move he heard a miserable voice.
“You……you plotted against me?” The voice contained both sadness and anger, and his face held a shocked expression “But…Why?”
“Oh, Master, don’t bother struggling. Since I have this Jade Snow Cord you gave me, you should be aware of its power, and with your present condition, you can only use twenty percent of your spiritual power, struggling will do you no good.”
