Chapter 685: Darkness Brute Shadow



Those parts of their bodies were special because they contained their respective brute totem rune.

To Magic Brute Race experts, the totem rune was their core source of powers, equivalent to the cultivation origin of human cultivators.

Those parts determined the level of military merit.

……

One hour later.

Lin Xun ran into an ambush from another gang of Magi Brute Race experts.

It was a little group of Brute Soldiers, so they were no threat to him at all.

Rather than saying that he was ambushed, it might be better to say that he charged over to them on purpose.

The massacre ended in seconds, leaving pools of blood and corpses on the ground. Lin Xun’s bag was again filled with badges of military achievement.

In the next few hours, Lin Xun either consecutively initiated the attacks or consecutively ran into groups of enemies.

But none of the battles could be considered fierce and tough. He hadn’t encountered anyone who could threaten him. He swept everyone easily like a storm and not a single Magi Brute Race expert survived.

His piles of spoils stacked higher and higher like little hills, but Lin Xun’s heart weighed heavier and heavier.

He realized that something was wrong.

He was on the way to the campground of the empire, but he saw only signs of the enemies. The only cultivators of the empire he saw were the corpses on the ground.

The empire’s situation didn’t look too good on the Blood Kill Battlefield.

“The old fox said that the Blood Kill Battlefield is the strongest line of defense of the empire. If this line of defense is under threat…”

Lin Xun shook his head, dispelling the negative thoughts.

He didn’t understand the full situation yet so he shouldn’t speculate, but what he saw and felt along the way suggested that the empire cultivators’ situation wasn’t particularly good on this ruthless and bloody battlefield.

He had self-awareness. He knew that, with his strength, it was impossible to change the situation at once.

The only thing he could do was to kill as many enemies as possible, complete his mission to the best he could, and…

Survive!

……

The sky grew darker and darker while the world became duller and more oppressive.

The strong wind swept across the barren land, whipping up the blanket of dust on the ground and producing wailing-like noises.

The smell of blood and corpses lingered in the air for a long time.

He suddenly halted his footsteps, and then, with a flash, hid in a shallow ravine.

Not far away was an almost imperceptible shadow leaning against the rocks. It had no scent and no aura like the shadow of the rock. It was very unusual.

Lin Xun’s eyes narrowed, and his body was stretched tight like a bow, silently mobilizing all the qi in his body.

Swoosh!

Without hesitation, he drew the No-Nonsense Bow and fired an arrow with lightning speed. It tore the sky as it silently shot towards the shadow in the distance.

Bang!

The rock shattered in an explosion, and a bottomless pit was blasted into the ground, but the shadow had already vanished bizarrely without a trace.

Lin Xun’s eyes glinted coldly. He quickly activated the No-Nonsense Bow and fired a rain of arrows across different areas.

Instantly, ear-splitting explosions boomed out from all directions. Boulders and rocks crumbled to smithereens, holes ripped through the ground, and the air split with cracks.

If other cultivators were around, then they would look perplexed, thinking that Lin Xun was shooting randomly, because there wasn’t a trace of the enemy around.

However, Lin Xun noticed a shadow flickering around in his field of vision with ghost-like speed. Even the No-Nonsense Bow failed to lock on the target.

Lin Xun’s expression turned a little grave.

The No-Nonsense Bow had the two remarkable abilities of detecting the surroundings and maintaining absolute calmness. Its origin was incredibly mysterious, and it had never failed before in the past.

It was no exaggeration to say that even peerless saints such as Niu Tuntian couldn’t evade its detection.

But the shadow did!

Lin Xun’s countenance changed. His opponent might look discomposed, but they managed to evade many of his shots.

He realized that he had encountered a tricky opponent.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Lin Xun’s expression became calmer and calmer, but his dark eyes were chillingly-cold. The bow body constructed from bones and skull was constantly bent as the bright red bowstring was fully stretched back as it shot out silent and illusory arrows one after another.

Pu!

Finally, pushed to its limit, the opponent was struck by an arrow, and a jet of blood sprayed into the air.

At the same time, a figure emerged. It was a man shrouded in gray shadows, with ash brown eyes, and a pretty and fair face.

His shoulder had been stained with blood, suggesting that the arrow had cut across that area.

The man chuckled. “Haha, not bad, judging by the life force circulating you, you are only in your teens. Yet, you have already reached the Heaven Ascension Stage. That alone isn’t amazing, but you were able to force me to appear with just a bow. Now, that’s impressive.”

He narrowed his ash-brown eyes slightly, asking ruminatively, “When did a person like you appear in the empire? Why haven’t I heard about you before?”

“That’s not important. What’s important is that you know that I will send you to death today,” Lin Xun stated calmly as he put away the No-Nonsense Bow.

He knew that it would be difficult to kill the opponent with a bow and arrows alone. Furthermore, the No-Nonsense Bow consumed huge amounts of aeth power.

Putting his hands behind his back, the man calmly analyzed, “Ridiculous! You have already exhausted your energy from the attacks just now. What else can you do?”

He was like a shadow, making it difficult for people to capture his movements.

Chi!

As he was speaking, an almost illusionary gray sword took shape, slashing downwards at Lin Xun’s throat with amazing speed.

Swoosh!

Lin Xun vanished, letting the flying sword slash a huge, bottomless crack into the ground.

The opponent cunningly launched a sneak attack as he was talking.

“Interesting, little boy, you actually have good adaptability power and can detect danger in advance. You surprised me.”

The gray shadow man had disappeared, hidden in the dark, but his aura lingered everywhere in the nearby area. It was no doubt an attempt to confuse Lin Xun.

“Surprised? It’s because you don’t know much.” Lin Xun’s expression was unchanged. Wielding the Broken Blade, his tremendous spirit power spread outwards from him like a storm.

A perfectly round moon shone brilliantly in his mind-sea, surrounded by thousands of stars, sharpening his sensing powers and allowing him to detect the finest details of everything in the world.

Chi!

Suddenly, the flying sword sped out again, aiming for the back of Lin Xun’s neck.

It was a flying sword cast from gray bones. It had a simple and understated design, and its muted color was close to transparent. Its speed was unbelievably fast, and its tip was terrifyingly sharp like it could pierce anything.

Clang!

Just as it was inches from Lin Xun, who was still standing motionlessly, the Broken Blade, as though it had eyes, struck the flying sword with utmost precision. An ear-splitting crash noise pierced the air.

The shockwaves of the collision were enough to collapse the surrounding space, blast hundreds of holes into the ground, and kick up smoke and dust.
