The Great Wild God - Chapter 58

Chapter 58 Set Out
Dark clouds billowed, and night was the best cover.

After leaving Tianma Lake Stronghold City, Chen Xun, Zong Ya, and the others headed south along the dense forest on the east bank of Wild Horse Stream. They first rushed to the northern foot of Black Rock Peak in the dark and met up with Gu Jianfeng and the others.

With a few swans, the two sides received a signal and met on a huge stone beam that flew halfway to the east of the mountain.

Gu Jianfeng was surprised to see that Zong Ya’s left arm was actually intact. He asked, “Your hand, what’s going on?”

“Fake” Zong Ya removed the wooden hand from his left arm and his sleeve hung empty.

Gu Jianfeng instantly understood Chen Xun and the others’ intentions.

Today, more than a thousand tribal clansmen gathered together. Most of them didn’t know each other. Zong Ya represented the Black Python to the martial stage to receive the trial iron medallion. His broken left arm was the most eye-catching, and it would also become the most prominent target for other tribes to identify the Black Python’s trial disciples.

Zong Ya put on a fake hand in this fashion. It looked like it was inconvenient to move, but the most prominent feature of his body had been concealed just like that. Once he merged with them, the people hiding in the shadows might be able to leak them out.

Gu Jianfeng heard from his father that Zong Tu was full of tricks. It seemed that the Black Python had spent countless efforts to preserve the trial iron medallion.

Dark clouds billowed in the sky, and only a faint stream of light flowed down.

Although it was already early spring, the cold wind blew past, and it was still so cold that it shrank its neck.

Chen Xun jumped onto the stone beam and looked at the distant Tianma Lake. Under the pitch black night, a faint sparkling light appeared on the surface of the lake. It was only thirty to fifty kilometers away from here.

Black Mountain Tribe sent a total of 15 disciples to participate in the trial. Apart from six people who were nowhere to be found, there were eight other Black Mountain Tribe teenagers waiting with Gu Jianfeng under the stone beam.

Apart from Gu Jianfeng, who was already at the peak of the sixth level of the Barbarian realm, only one of the other eight cultivators had comprehended the Barbarian Soul. However, their cultivation was slightly weaker than Zong Ling’s, and there was a scar on their faces.

Chen Xun asked, “What’s your name?”

“Gu Feng.”

“Alright, Gu Feng, come with us. Everyone else, go back to the stronghold!” Chen Xun said.

“How can this work?” The other youths of the Montenegro Tribe said anxiously.

“Although they haven’t comprehended the Barbarian Soul yet, they have cultivated the Barbarian Martial Arts since they were young, and their strength is not bad. They won’t hold you back …” Gu Jianfeng saw that Chen Xun only picked him to go with Gu Feng, wanting everyone else to return to Black Mountain Tribe. He didn’t understand Chen Xun’s intentions for a while.

Although the other seven had yet to comprehend the Barbarian Soul, they were all only fourteen or fifteen years old. Their muscles and bones were refined, and their cultivation of the Barbarian Martial Arts was quite basic. It could be said that they were all the elites of Black Mountain Tribe’s younger generation.

Chen Xun thought to himself that the Black Mountain Tribe had actually allowed so many outstanding disciples to join Gu Jianfeng as bait. He was truly determined.

If the Montenegrin Tribe were to sacrifice themselves so much that they were unable to preserve an Iron Trial Token, the Montenegrin Tribesmen would probably no longer have the courage to resist and would directly surrender to Gui Xi, right?

“It’s useless to sacrifice so many people in vain to attract the attention of other tribes. The truly dangerous ones are still after entering the Azure Water Wilderness.”

Chen Xun said straightforwardly to Gu Jianfeng,

“Advanced into the high-grade barbarian martial, barbarian soul breeds spiritual sense, a little training, can sense the faint aura in the distance. Perhaps not many of the disciples of the Northern Mountain Tribe can tell that Black Mountain Tribe’s Iron Trial Token is actually not on you, but after entering the Azure Water Wilderness, facing the disciples of the Great Guixi Tribe who set up ambushes along the way, it is impossible for you to conceal the truth. “Azure Water College will not give you a chance to play tricks on us except to create a path of bloodshed …”

“It can’t be?” Gu Jianfeng was both ashamed and surprised to hear Chen Xun’s words. He revealed a shocked expression as he said, “My father can only sense the Iron Trial Token within fifty meters …”

Before Chen Xun cultivated the Dragon Binding Technique, the spiritual sense that the barbarian soul gave birth to could only sense a weak aura within twenty to thirty meters. However, after cultivating the Dragon Binding Technique, he could clearly sense a weak aura from six hundred meters away with his spiritual sense.

The remnant souls of desolate beasts sealed within the trial iron medallion were so fierce that they were like lanterns that attracted people over ten miles away to fight for them.

If Gu Hu could only sense the existence of the Trial Iron Card within fifty meters, then that meant that his spiritual sense was much weaker than Chen Xun’s before he practiced the Dragon Binding Technique.

Perhaps Black Mountain Tribe didn’t even have any concept of spiritual sense cultivation, and the schemes he had set up to deceive the world were full of mistakes and omissions, so there was nothing abnormal about it.

Chen Xun asked, “I wonder how many disciples of the Guixi Clan have been sent to the Azure Water Learning Palace in the past hundred years. I wonder how many profound arts have been brought back to the clan from the Azure Water Learning Palace. Do you think that among the disciples of the Guixi Clan, there is no one whose spiritual sense is far stronger than that of the Montenegro Clan?”

The Gui Xi Tribe even had several Heavenly Barbarians who had advanced to the Reincarnation Realm, and their inheritance was far beyond the reach of the Montenegro Tribe.

Gu Jianfeng was both embarrassed and depressed. He didn’t expect that Chen Xun would be able to see through their schemes to attract the attention of other races. He didn’t expect that the schemes that Black Mountain Tribe had been discussing for a long time would be useless at all.

Gu Jianfeng’s face flushed red, and he wished he could dig a hole in the ground. Fortunately, the darkness of the night was so deep that Chen Xun and the others couldn’t see his expression.

Zong Ya asked, “Where are the other seven people in Montenegro? If you want to come with us, there might be a chance of survival.”

“After we separate, unless we reach Azure Water City, we will no longer contact each other. I also don’t know which way they will go or how they will go.” Gu Jianfeng said shamefully. He didn’t know if Chen Xun would believe his words, but at the same time, he was worried about the other seven people who were heading south.

Zong Ya chuckled. Of course, he did not believe Gu Jianfeng’s words.

Chen Xun felt that there was no need for Gu Jianfeng to lie at this moment.

There was no limit to the competition for the trial.

Since the Gui Xi Tribe had made up their minds to sacrifice Gu Jianfeng as bait, they shouldn’t let him know the whereabouts of the other tribesmen and their plans to head south.

“I can sense that there is a trial iron medallion halfway down Blackrock Peak, presumably the one held by the Left Thorn Tribe disciples. They came out of Tianma Lake Stronghold City a bit earlier than us. The other three had already slipped away without stopping halfway. It seemed like they wanted to take advantage of the darkness to disperse and cover their tracks, “Chen Xun said. He looked at Black Mountain Tribe and the others,” So, all of you stay here tonight and return to the stronghold tomorrow … ”

Gu Jianfeng felt extremely guilty. Just as he was about to listen to Chen Xun’s instructions on how to arrange things, he saw Chen Xun speaking while taking the Iron Embryo Bow from behind him.

Before Gu Jianfeng knew what had happened, Chen Xun instantly pulled out an iron arrow from his quiver, turned around, and drew his bow. His movements were like flowing clouds and flowing water, without stopping for a single breath. In the next moment, the iron arrow that was still shining with a cold light in the pitch-black night was like a wisp of black floating light, submerging into the night.

A moment later, there was a muffled “pounce” sound. The iron arrow seemed to have shot deep into a giant tree.

Chen Xun drew out his arrow and fired again. He heard a burst of alarm in the dense forest in the distance. It was as if a big bird had jumped up from the treetop and flashed across the treetop towards the distance …

It sounds like a bird, but it’s not a bird. Birds don’t fly near the treetops.

The treetop trembled, and it was pitch black. Gu Jianfeng couldn’t see any light. He pulled out the short spear behind him and listened to the wind calmly. His entire body spread out like a giant bow as he watched Chen Xun’s movements. He intended to see where Chen Xun shot the iron arrow, and then he threw the bone spear towards.

“He ran far …”

Chen Xun put away his bow and arrow.

Since their whereabouts had already been discovered, there was no need to hide them anymore. Chen Xun immediately asked Zong Ling to set fire and search the distance.

The iron arrow was stabbed into the waist of an iron forging tree that was hugged by three or four people. Only the tail plume was still exposed, hanging on a piece of thick linen, and the moss at the root of the tree was sprinkled with blood.

Gu Jianfeng looked at the bloodstains illuminated by the flames and was secretly shocked. Dark clouds billowed in the horizon. With the faint light, he could only see a faint shadow within four to five feet. Chen Xun actually didn’t even look at it and raised his hand to frighten away the enemy that was hiding three hundred meters away. Could this be the spiritual sense he was talking about?

“Who could it be?” Gu Jianfeng asked doubtfully. He thought to himself that Chen Xun’s spiritual sense was so sharp. He thought that when they rushed over, they had inadvertently half-embellished him. His back was also covered in cold sweat. If Chen Xun hadn’t come over to join them, how would the eight of them have resisted this person’s assassination?

“It should be a disciple of the Left Thorn Tribe.” Chen Xun saw that some branches and leaves were broken at the top of the tree, but this person had already fled far away. “His aura was extremely well restrained, and I didn’t notice it at first. When I mentioned the Left Thorn Tribe, he accidentally let out a trace of aura to let me sense it …”

“If the people from the Left Thorn Tribe don’t leave, they must be after us. Fuck them.” Zong Ya spat hatefully, but didn’t say anything else.

“Do you want to chase after him?” Gu Jianfeng asked.

During the day in Tianma Lake Stronghold City, He had paid attention to the situation of the Left Thorn Tribe’s disciples, There was an expert who made him unable to see through the depths. He thought that it was the person who had just dived 300 meters away to spy on this side. Gu Jianfeng thought to himself, if this person was called Chen Xun Shooting Wound, the other disciples of the Left Thorn Tribe would not be Chen Xun’s opponents. They would immediately chase after him and be able to seize the Iron Trial Token in the Left Thorn Tribe’s hand.

Chen Xun shook his head and said, “Forget it, let’s go down the mountain …”

He asked Zong Ling and Nanxi to bring along the twenty to thirty short spears behind the disciples of the Montenegro Tribe.

For hundreds of years, the Black Mountain Tribe had been in the northern mountain of the Python Fang Ridge, hunting for a living and practicing the unique skill of throwing short spears with one hand; When Chen Xun and Gu Lei were fighting in the depths of the valley, they had already experienced it.

The Bone Spear made by the Black Mountain Tribe was as light as steel, but it was as hard as steel. Throwing prey from three to four hundred meters away was extremely powerful, bringing along twenty to thirty bone spears. Its power was not much inferior to the Iron Embryo Bow.

After dividing the bone spears into three piles and placing them on the backs of Zong Ling, Nan Xi and Gu Feng, Chen Xun saw that Gu Jianfeng was still hesitating to say something and asked, “Are you puzzled? Why don’t we seize this opportunity to snatch the Iron Trial Token from the Left Thorn Tribe?”

“Huh?” Gu Jianfeng did not deny that the black python only had a trial iron medallion in its hand. Obviously, it was far from enough for Chen Xun, Zong Ya, and the others to enter the Azure Water College at the same time.

Chen Xun calmly explained to Gu Jianfeng, “Even if we snatch all five trial iron medals from the disciples of the Northern Mountain Tribe and enter the Azure Water Wilderness, it will only make us the only targets for the disciples of the great clans like Gui Xi to attack.” If we want to gain more trust, we have to chat with each other before. “It’s not good for us to snatch the trial iron medallion from someone else’s hands at this time …”

Gu Jianfeng nodded. Although Chen Xun looked two years younger than him, he was far inferior to him in both cultivation and mind …
