Immortal Hero: I Can See the Success Rate - Chapter 93
Chapter 93: Snatching the Starlight Grass
“Sigh, fellow Daoists, let’s go somewhere else and continue our search. Maybe, we can find another starlight grass,” one of the foundation establishment cultivators said to his companions with a bitter smile.
“Mm…” His colleagues nodded in unison.
They didn’t dare to ask Lin An for the starlight grass that he had already plucked since the bodies of the golden core stage cultivators on the ground were still warm!
At that moment, the success rate system notifications sounded in Lin An’s ears.
When he turned around and saw that the foundation establishment cultivators were about to leave, he immediately asked in a puzzled voice, “Hey, why are you guys leaving? Don’t you want this starlight grass?”
The foundation establishment cultivators immediately stopped in their tracks and turned around to look at Lin An in fear.
To their surprise, Lin An threw the starlight grass towards them.
“Take it. I can find another herb easily.”
The six foundation establishment cultivators couldn’t believe their eyes.
Lin An had fought the five golden core stage cultivators with great difficulty because of the starlight grass. Why would he give it away so easily?
When the starlight grass landed in their hands, the cultivators were delighted, and they quickly bowed to Lin An. “Thank you for your help, senior. We will definitely remember this favor in our hearts!”
They seemingly thought that Lin An was an old monster who had the ability to retain his looks, but in fact, he was actually younger than them.
After parting ways with the foundation establishment cultivators, Lin An saw a few cultivators on the other side of the valley who were desperately searching for the starlight grass.
“This starlight grass is too rare. After searching for so long, we haven’t even seen a single trace of it.”
“It’s also because our luck is too bad.”
“No, it’s because the starlight grass is too rare. That is why the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect uses the herb as a test item.”
“Sigh, let’s take a break and then split up. This way, we can increase our chances of finding it.”
At that moment, the tired cultivators saw Lin An walk past them. Suddenly, he bent down and pushed one rock aside and revealed a starlight grass that had been covered up!
“F*ck! A starlight grass!”
The nearby cultivators immediately cried out in surprise. However, they immediately realized their oversight and quickly covered their mouths.
However, it was too late. Dozens of cultivators in the surroundings had heard their cry, and they rushed towards them.
As the incoming cultivators surrounded the area, they noticed the starlight grass in Lin An’s hand.
“Hey! Hand over the starlight grass obediently. Otherwise, don’t blame us for making a move!”
“You’d better hand over the starlight grass voluntarily. Otherwise, no one will save you today.”
“Take a good look at your current situation. There’s no way for you to escape. We’ll give you two seconds to consider. Hand over the starlight grass, and we’ll spare your life!”
In just a few seconds, dozens of cultivators had simultaneously surged forward like a tide and surrounded Lin An. For the first time, he suddenly felt a sense of oppression due to the overwhelming number of cultivators who had surrounded him.
In the encroaching cultivators’ eyes, Lin An had no way to escape.
Even though he was facing some disadvantageous odds, Lin An looked at the cultivators and smiled disdainfully.
“In my opinion, all of you are trash! Let’s get this over with. I’m in a hurry!”
After he spoke, Lin An held the Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword and strolled forward. His long robe fluttered in the wind, and a domineering aura slowly spread out.
Boom!
A blue lightning stirred up Lin An’s body as he charged into the crowd.
He held the Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword horizontally in his hand like a sharp killing weapon, and the sword light it emitted swiftly sliced through the throats of the approaching cultivators.
Poof!
In the next moment, several shrieking cries rang out, and many cultivators died on the spot.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the battle. You have obtained twenty lottery coins.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the battle. You have obtained seventeen lottery coins.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the battle. You have obtained fifteen lottery coins.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the battle. You have obtained twenty-one lottery coins.]
…
After attacking the cultivators, Lin An felt that the Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword in his hand had become sharper.
Waves of blood-red life energy were infused into the transparent white crystal on the body of the sword, and Lin An sensed that the sword was close to breaking through the nascent soul stage.
If there had been an infant transformation stage powerhouse present among the cultivators, Lin An would definitely have thought twice about launching an attack.
However, there had been less than ten nascent soul stage cultivators in the crowd, and the rest had mostly been golden core stage and foundation establishment stage cultivators.
Therefore, Lin An had gladly accepted their challenge. The fact that he would earn some easy lottery coins also motivated him.
The situation had turned into a pure slaughter, and Lin An didn’t feel any pressure at all.
The success rate system’s notifications kept ringing in his ear. The more Lin An killed, the more comfortable he became, and the Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword increased its power.
When he savored the power flowing through his body, Lin An felt that no one could stop him!
Combined with the Lightning Dharma Body and the azure mantra’s speed treasure, Lin An easily dodged the joint attacks of the charging cultivators.
Suddenly, at that moment, a few figures appeared in the sky.
One cultivator raised his head and immediately recognized the identity of the flying cultivators. With a strong and hopeful voice, the cultivator shouted, “It’s the senior brothers and sisters from the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect. We’re saved! Senior brothers, senior sisters, please save us!”
However, Lin An’s figure flashed in front of the cultivator, and with a flash of his sword’s light, he chopped off the shouting cultivator’s head.
“No one can save you today!” Lin An said coldly as he wiped off the blood from his Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword.
Nevertheless, the remaining cultivators still felt that they had found some hope of survival.
They continued shouting at the flying figures in the sky, “Senior brothers and sisters of the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect, please save us!”
“This person is a demon. He is bloodthirsty. Please send out the elders from the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect to suppress him!”
“I beg you. Please help us!”
…
In order to attract the attention of the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples, the cultivators who were under siege began to fabricate facts and create rumors about Lin An.
However, Lin An glanced at the sky and sneered.
If the disciples from the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect interfered, he wouldn’t mind killing them as well.
After all, he didn’t really want to become a Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciple.
At worst, all the sect members would do was throw a tantrum and throw Lin An out of their trial.
After the disciples from the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect landed, they were shocked by the bloody scene on the ground.
In the end, after they investigated the incident, Lin An still received the qualification to advance to the third stage. Several Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples even gave him directions to the third stage of the trial.
Throughout the investigation, Lin An had been confident that the facts were on his side. Since the Hundred Flowers Valley Sect disciples had been reasonable, he wasn’t afraid of advancing to the next stage of the trial.
After leaving the valley, Lin An followed the instructions he had received and walked for a while. After passing through a barrier, he arrived in front of a trial tower.
There were a few cultivators who had also passed the second stage, and they were discussing several strategies on how they would tackle the trial tower stage.
“This stage tests the strength of everyone’s souls. There are ten levels in the tower, and each level increases the pressure on a challenger’s soul. If the challenger can’t withstand the pressure, he or she is forcefully ejected from the trial tower.”
“I heard that the highest result in the trial is the fourth level. Then, as long as we clear the third level, we have a very high chance of advancing.”
