Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After leaving the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range, Lin Shen heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that the Enlightening Stage tiger demon hadn’t caught up with him.
However, he didn’t relax and continued to run.
It was only when he returned to Dragonside City that he was relieved.
As soon as he relaxed, Lin Shen immediately realized that the clothes on his back were already drenched in cold sweat.
“That was close. If not for the Path-stage Meltdown, I would probably have died there!”
Recalling how powerful and terrifying that tiger demon was, Lin Shen still had lingering fears.
But right after that, a wave of ecstasy surged in his chest.
…..
Even such a powerful tiger demon was still blasted into the ground by Path-stage Meltdown. That was how powerful Path-stage martial techniques were!
“Not many opponents at the Long Breath Stage would be able to withstand a single strike!
“If a Path-stage martial technique is already so powerful, how powerful will it be after breaking through to a higher stage?”
Lin Shen was instantly filled with anticipation for the stage after Path.
In this battle, he had killed more than 40 white-eyed spirit tigers. There was no lack of late-phase Ascension Stage beasts among them. As a result, the effect of Testify by Killing had been triggered twice, increasing his cultivation level and Divine Elephant Technique’s progress by 8% and 12%, respectively.
At this point, Lin Shen’s cultivation level had already reached Level 6, 97%. He was only a step away from breaking through to Level 7.
After returning to the Nine Yang Academy, Lin Shen acutely sensed that the atmosphere around him was different from before.
The disciples came and went in a hurry with a sense of urgency in their steps, as well as uneasiness and excitement on their faces.
It seemed that a great battle was coming!
Lin Shen’s eyes flickered as he quickened his pace towards the Merit Hall.
When he arrived at the Mission Hall, Lin Shen was surprised to find that the hall, which was usually filled with people, was now desolate and cold. There were almost no people.
Jiao Yu was on duty behind the counter. When he saw Lin Shen, she looked pleasantly surprised.
“Senior Brother Lin, I’m so glad you’re fine!”
Lin Shen was even more certain of his speculation, but he still asked,
“The academy seems a little different from usual. Is it because of what happened in the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range?”
Jiao Yu’s pretty face turned solemn as she nodded heavily.
“That’s right. A few hours ago, the Tiger Division, the Bear Division, and the Python Division jointly sent a large number of spiritual beasts to attack all the human cultivators in the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range. Many disciples of our academy couldn’t escape, and we suffered heavy casualties!”
As expected!
Lin Shen’s heart lurched slightly.
Fortunately, he didn’t go too deep into the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range and left immediately after sensing that something was wrong. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“What did the Three Sect Prefecture say?” Lin Shen asked.
Three Sect Prefecture would definitely react to such an important matter.
“The Three Sect Prefecture has issued a wartime alert and a notice that they’ll attack the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range in ten days to kill the three demonic divisions. The headmaster has also issued an order to gather the disciples. All disciples whose cultivation has reached the Long Breath Stage and above must gather to participate in the battle in ten days!”
As expected, Yang Zhongyi was right!
In the end, a war broke out between Dragonside City and the three demonic divisions!
Lin Shen sighed inwardly.
Even so, he didn’t mind participating in the battle. Instead, he was slightly looking forward to it.
After all, although the war was abnormally dangerous, the reward was also incredible.
The merit points he could obtain would be significant. More importantly, he could kill a large number of spiritual beasts and trigger the effect of the Testify by Killing talent to quickly increase his strength.
After a huge battle, his cultivation might break through another level, or he might master another Path-stage martial technique.
“There are still ten days. It’s enough for me to raise my cultivation level to the seventh level of the Long Breath Stage and cultivate the Forbidden Golden Armor to Path stage!”
The power of a Path-stage martial technique had been thoroughly verified not long ago.
With two Path-stage martial techniques in hand, Lin Shen felt that even if he was on an extremely dangerous battlefield, he would have enough strength to protect himself!
With a plan in mind, Lin Shen didn’t delay any longer and began to turn in the mission.
He had gained a lot in the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range and also completed five to six crusade missions. In the end, he had obtained a total of 23 minor merits and 438 merit points!
“It’s a pity that I didn’t have time to retrieve the spines of the tigers I killed just then. Otherwise, I would have made another 40-odd minor merits!”
Lin Shen felt a little regretful.
White-eyed spirit tigers weren’t that common.
After training in the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range for nearly two months, he had only encountered four white-eyed spirit tigers in total.
Furthermore, they were all alone. There had never been a case of two tigers appearing together.
The Tiger Division had sent a large number of white-eyed spirit tigers to attack human cultivators. Such a thing happens once every four to five years at most.
After thanking Jiao Yu, Lin Shen immediately left the Mission Hall and came to the Exchange Hall.
With the merit points he had earned this time, the savings from before, and the five minor merits he received this month as his Earth-rank disciple benefit, Lin Shen now had a total of 30 minor merits and more than 500 merit points.
Lin Shen was prepared to use all these merit points to exchange for martial techniques.
Apart from Meltdown and Forbidden Golden Armor, he was also prepared to cultivate a Path-stage movement technique and sword technique each.
The movement technique first.
Strictly speaking, Shadows was only slightly higher in its grade than Blazing Sun Palm. It was far inferior to powerful martial techniques like Meltdown or Forbidden Golden Armor.
Therefore, Lin Shen didn’t plan to use Shadows as the main body of the fusion of martial techniques. Instead, he planned to choose another stronger martial technique..
