Blackwater Forest was a training ground near Primordial Dao Holy Land. Because of its unique geographical environment, black rain fell there all year round, which was how it earned its name.
The black rain not only failed to harm the creatures in the region, it even caused the plants in Blackwater Forest to grow with extraordinary vigor. As a result, the spiritual herbs in this area were far more abundant than in other places.
“Haha, I actually found a third-grade Blue Silver Grass. This trip to Blackwater Forest was truly worth it.”
The man in black stared at the small blue-and-silver herb he had just obtained, and a flicker of madness flashed across his face.
A third-grade spiritual herb was worth at least 100 spirit stones.
With that many spirit stones, he could once again book a monthly stay at Drunken Fragrance Pavilion.
“Who’s there?”
Sensing a sound ahead, the man in black turned serious and immediately shouted in that direction.
Crack.
Crack!
Along with the sound of grass being crushed underfoot, a masked man slowly stepped out.
“Who are you?”
Seeing the newcomer, the man in black’s expression grew even more solemn.
At a time like this, anyone appearing was either after his money or his life.
“Leave the Blue Silver Grass, and I’ll spare your life,” the masked man said coldly.
After successfully breaking through to the 1st stage Condensed Soul Realm, Lin Tianyang naturally returned to his side business.
Compared to searching for heavenly treasures himself, he found it much simpler to just take them from others.
“Heh, if you want to take something from me, Long Batian, that depends on whether you have the ability.”
“Take this blade!”
Knowing the other party’s intention, Long Batian did not waste any words.
As soon as he finished speaking, his Seven-Star Dragon-Slaying Blade slashed toward Lin Tianyang.
“Heh, a weakling at the Profound Breaking Realm dares to attack me. You’re courting death!”
Lin Tianyang let out a cold snort. A long sword in his hand shot forward like a slithering serpent, meeting Long Batian’s Dragon-Slaying Blade head-on.
Back when he was at the 10th stage Profound Breaking Realm, he had already taken advantage of openings to kill several cultivators of the same level. Now that he had broken through to the 1st stage Condensed Soul Realm, he was even stronger.
“Wandering Dragon Sword Technique!”
Lin Tianyang shouted.
The long sword spun continuously in the air. In just two breaths, it had already shattered several deep notches into Long Batian’s Dragon-Slaying Blade.
“What? This masked man’s attack is so fierce?”
Long Batian stared at his treasured blade, which was quickly becoming like a toothless tiger, and panic surged in his heart.
“Sword, come. Break!”
After a violent strike, Long Batian was sent flying far away by Lin Tianyang’s overwhelming force. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
He only came to a stop after crashing into a century-old tree.
“Pfft…”
He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned a dark purplish red.
“You… you’re an inner sect disciple?”
Long Batian’s voice trembled in fear.
Although he ranked among the top 100 outer sect disciples, his cultivation was still only at the peak of the Profound Breaking Realm.
As for inner sect disciples, they all started at the Condensed Soul Realm. They were terrifying existences.
“Heh, that’s none of your concern.”
Lin Tianyang looked down at the ashen-faced man beneath him.
“Remember this. In your next life, keep your eyes open. If something isn’t yours, don’t take it.”
“Wait! The Blue Silver Grass, and all the spirit stones on me, I’ll give them all to you. Please, spare my life!”
Long Batian hurriedly took out the Blue Silver Grass and a cloth pouch from his robe and placed them on the ground in front of him.
The other party was here to rob him. Since he had not seen the masked man’s true face, there was no reason for the man to kill him.
“You only realize it now? Sorry. It’s too late.”
A fierce light flashed in Lin Tianyang’s eyes.
Killing someone would bring him trouble, but if no one knew, then it was as if no one had been killed.
“You dare kill me? Aren’t you afraid that the Law Enforcement Peak of Primordial Dao Holy Land will come after you?”
Long Batian threatened, his chest heaving violently from fear.
“Heh, did I kill you? Who saw it?” Lin Tianyang asked in return.
“You were clearly torn apart by a wild beast. What does that have to do with me?”
“Die!”
The long sword in Lin Tianyang’s hand descended like the call of the Reaper, and Long Batian’s heart filled with terror.
“If you don’t want others to know, don’t do it in the first place. In broad daylight, you dare to slaughter a fellow disciple. I will personally send you to Law Enforcement Peak.”
At that moment, a bold voice rang out, causing Lin Tianyang, who was about to strike, to stiffen.
“Senior Brother Lu, Senior Sister, save me! This man wants to murder a fellow disciple!”
Seeing the newcomers, Long Batian was overjoyed and immediately shouted for help.
Senior Brother Lu had quite a reputation within the holy land. Many disciples regarded him as gentle and refined, yet handsome and extraordinary.
As for the beautiful woman beside him, although Long Batian did not recognize her, with such stunning looks, she had to be a senior sister.
“Why is it Lu Wuchen and Senior Sister Xi? How did those two end up together?”
What startled him was not why they were here, but why they were together.
For a moment, he felt as if something above his head had turned the wrong color.
“In broad daylight, wearing a mask. Either a thief or something worse. And you even dare attempt to kill a junior brother of our holy land. Unforgivable.”
Lu Wuchen drew his long sword and pointed it directly at Lin Tianyang.
Through the system, he had already seen that this robber was none other than the Son of Destiny, Lin Tianyang.
What he had not expected was that the dignified Son of Destiny would stoop to such acts in broad daylight.
This is bad. Lu Wuchen and Senior Sister Xi had been in the Condensed Soul Realm for quite some time.
He had only just broken through. There was no way he could defeat the two of them together.
The most urgent matter now was to leave as quickly as possible.
He wore a mask and had deliberately lowered his voice. They would not recognize him.
He absolutely could not let the truth of killing a fellow disciple be exposed. Otherwise, what awaited him would be punishment from Law Enforcement Peak.
Lin Tianyang reacted quickly. In an instant, he stuffed the items on the ground into his robe and pressed his sword against Long Batian’s neck.
“Let me go.”
He deliberately made his voice hoarse.
“Leave the person behind. I’ll let you take the items and leave.”
Looking at the masked man before her, Liu Ruoxi frowned.
Blackwater Forest was a place for sect disciples to train. She had not expected that a disciple would dare wear a mask and commit murder and robbery. It was truly despicable.
Hearing Senior Sister’s cold voice, Lin Tianyang nodded.
As long as he could leave, that was enough. There were hundreds of thousands of disciples in the holy land. Many had similar builds. He was not afraid of being identified.
He slowly retreated, and the blade gradually moved farther from Long Batian’s neck.
“Damn it, I’ve already memorized your aura. As long as you’re still in the holy land, do you think I won’t find you?”
Seeing that he was nearly out of danger, Long Batian regained his arrogance and openly threatened Lin Tianyang.
His elder brother, Long Aotian, led a group in the inner sect. When the time came, he would ask his elder brother for help. He did not believe they would fail to find this man.
Damn it. You dare rob me? I’ll make you pay in blood.
Hearing Long Batian’s threat, Lin Tianyang’s expression froze.
If the vile deeds he had committed were exposed, there would be no place left for him in Primordial Dao Holy Land.
A ruthless light flashed across Lin Tianyang’s eyes as he made up his mind.
Slash.
