Chapter 701: Unexpected and Joyous Surprise



Lin Xun walked along the path.

His spirit senses spread outwards, covering the entire area as the Broken Blade killed a dozen more Brute elites as if it had eyes of its own.

There was no lack of Great Magi level experts among them who were considered powerful individuals in the Blood Kill Battlefield. In the face of Lin Xun, however, they were akin to easily slaughtered wild dogs and chickens.

“What?! That little shit is back?” She Zhen’s roar sounded deep inside the canyon. His face was filled with alarm and anger as his eyes bulged from their sockets.

The canyon had descended into chaos. Lin Xun advanced with his blade in hand, leaving a path of carnage behind him. Despite this, his clothes remained clean and pristine, making him resemble a blade immortal descending upon a chaotic battlefield.

“I can’t believe it's him…” Yan Chixing and Yin Beigu also yelped, unable to believe their eyes.

The youngster had come back!

They could not fathom how the youth could be so courageous. He had already escaped so why did he come back? What gave him the confidence to do so?

“You dare to return? How courageous, it seems that you’re tired of living!” She Zhen roared although he seemed to be putting on a strong front.

What else could he do? He had been gravely injured by Lin Xun’s arrow previously and nearly lost his life. How could he possibly dare to face Lin Xun in his current condition?

“Weren’t you guys trying to track me down? Why aren’t you happy that I’ve voluntarily returned?”

As Lin Xun spoke, the blade in his hands continued to move. Seven or eight Brute elites nearby failed to react in time and were killed in the blink of an eye.

The decisiveness and ruthlessness shocked She Zhen, Yan Chixing, and Yin Beigu, causing their hearts to tremble as their scalps turned numb.

It wasn’t because they were careless and had not taken any preventive measures. No one could have anticipated that the human youngster would have the balls to return because something like this had never happened before.

Unfortunately, it was already too late for regret.

Boom!

Lin Xun did not pause for even a second. He moved with the Hornless Ice Dragon Step and continued to swing the Broken Blade, slaying the enemies with dazzling bursts of starlight.

“Attack together and kill him!”

She Zhen’s roar thundered across the area. He was hoping to alert the Brute Enlightened Spirit experts in the vicinity to come and save them.

Yan Chixing and Yin Beigu were even more direct and fired off SOS signal flares made from beast bones.

Lin Xun laughed. This was what he wanted. It was the only way to force the Brute Enlightened Spirit experts to abandon their chase and return to Tiger Canyon!

Rumble!

The massacre continued. Lin Xun employed the same efficient and ruthless killing method from start to end, not once holding anything back.

His demon-god-like methods absolutely terrified the nearby Brute elites, causing them to flee from Tiger Canyon in a panic.

Lin Xun did not give chase. After all, his goal wasn’t to kill them.

The scene caused She Zhen’s, Yan Chixing’s, and Yin Beigu’s faces to turn increasingly pale, and their hands and feet turned cold as they trembled in fear.

If he was allowed to continue in this manner, they would be dead before help arrived!

“Run!”

She Zhen and the others made a humiliating decision. After all, who cared about dignity in the face of death?

Most importantly, they were injured and had lost the qualifications to fight Lin Xun.

Despite this, the thought of being intimidated and scared off by the human youngster nearly made them vomit blood.

It was too much!

In the distance, Lin Xun noticed She Zhen and the others escaping. Unlike the Brute elites, however, the trio was running toward a cave deep in the canyon.

“Could there be a hidden safe zone inside the cave that made them choose to retreat toward it?”

A thought struck Lin Xun.

He did not pursue them. She Zhen and the others were not different from tigers that had been defanged. It made no difference when he killed them.

Moments later.

Tiger Canyon was a mess. Corpses were strewn everywhere, and the ground had been dyed red. There were at least a hundred Brute elite corpses in the area.

It was a shocking scene that would be considered a small-scale battle even on the Blood Kill Battlefield!

All of this, however, was done by a single person: Lin Xun.

Of course, far more Brute elites had escaped than died. Lin Xun did not stop a single one because he needed as many people as possible to help him spread the news and draw back the Brute experts who had gone in pursuit of Hu Tong and the others.

Lin Xun began to collect the battle spoils.

He worked with seasoned efficiency, and three large bags soon appeared on the ground. They were filled to the brim with battle spoils and could be exchanged for military credit.

However, Lin Xun quickly discovered a problem. The bags were too big, and there were three of them. Since it was impossible to use spatial storage treasures in Blood Kill Battlefield, bringing back these battle spoils to camp was going to be quite a difficult task.

After some thought, Lin Xun tied the three bags together with a rope and began hauling them toward the cave deep inside the canyon.

She Zhen, Yan Chixing, and Yin Beigu were hiding there. Moreover, Lin Xun had not forgotten his true motive for returning to Tiger Canyon―the unknown treasure that was about to appear!

……

The cave was extremely deep, dark, and humid. Numerous paths stretched out before him like spiderwebs, reaching deep into the earth like an underground labyrinth.

Upon stepping foot inside, Lin Xun felt an indescribable, bone-piercing murderous intent that was faint yet omnipresent!

It made all of his hair stand on end. He could not help but shiver, alarmed by the terrifying killing intent.

He cautiously advanced while dragging the bags as his enormous spirit power spread outwards, instantly detecting a hint of the hidden trio’s lingering auras.

Expression unchanged, he continued forward.

The tunnels were full of twists and turns. Any ordinary person would soon find themselves lost within them.

Moreover, the deeper Lin Xun went, the more terrifying the killing intent grew. It became so dreadful that it made him feel a piercing pain on his skin.

Lin Xun’s eyes narrowed slightly. As expected, this was no ordinary place.

Plop!

Not long after, Lin Xun suddenly thrust the Broken Blade at the wall, eliciting a scream. Blood spurted into the air as a shadowy silhouette fell to the ground.

It was a Darkness Brute expert who had been nearly undetectable. However, he could not escape Lin Xun’s powerful spirit senses.

This was one of the unique perks of the Little Divine Meditation Art. It bestowed Lin Xun’s spirit power with the ability to see through all trickery and grasp the truth.

Boom!

After some time, a bone spear suddenly shot out from one of the tunnels, aiming straight for Lin Xun’s throat with unrivaled speed and a fierce aura.

Lin Xun did not turn his head to look as his figure disappeared from the spot in a flash.

Plop!

The spear struck air as a bloody head spiraled into the air, leaving a headless corpse that soon fell to the ground with a thud.

Lin Xun had already disappeared deeper into a tunnel.

The dark and humid underground maze contained a mysterious and unknown killing intent and hid many Brute elites.

However, Lin Xun boldly advanced as if he was walking through a plain. Every ambush and assassination attempt was mercilessly thwarted as if he had already foreseen them.

Oh?

After killing several enemies, Lin Xun suddenly paused as his black eyes began to glow.

Specks of starlight suddenly appeared in the tunnel ahead. It illuminated the dark area, giving off a mysterious sensation of vast flowing beauty.

When he approached, he discovered that the specks of starlight originated from the black stones in the wall.

Crack!

Lin Xun swung the Broken Blade, causing a pebble-sized black ore to fall into his hand. Bright starlight flowed along its surface and it felt faintly metallic. It was heavy in his hand and roughly weighed a thousand catties.

Meteor Star Steel!

It was the special ore produced in Tiger Canyon, a rare and precious resource that was also one of the best materials to craft heaven-grade treasures.

It could also be used as a medium for crafting rune armaments, possessed numerous other uses, and had extremely astonishing value.

A small piece like this could fetch over ten thousand gold coins in the empire!

The walls in the tunnel were covered in Meteor Star Steel ore! They were like shining stars in the night, sprinkling their clear, dream-like light.

“No wonder the Brute Tribes have stationed their elite forces here. The value of the ores alone is more than worth the manpower invested.”

While Lin Xun was lost in thought, his pupils suddenly shrank when he noticed a rare, cryptic undulation rise from the Broken Blade as if it had smelled something delicious. It soon began to absorb the power of the Meteor Star Steel ore in his hand.

Crack!

In the blink of an eye, the pebble-sized ore’s power was completely devoured, turning it to dust.

Meanwhile, light pulsed on the Broken Blade as if it were breathing. A strand of starlight suddenly flickered from it before it fell silent once more.

Surprise rose in Lin Xun’s mind. This was the first time the Broken Blade had voluntarily absorbed power.

Could there be some kind of power in the Meteor Star Steel that could allow the blade to evolve?

Clang!

With a flick of his wrist, the Broken Blade slid into the wall like a knife through tofu.

He immediately sensed a soft cry echo from the Broken Blade as if rejoicing as cryptic undulations spread from it.

The ores in the wall began to tremble as their light swiftly dimmed, indicating that their power was rapidly being absorbed by the Broken Blade.

“I see!”

Lin Xun’s eyes brightened. This was an unexpected and joyous surprise.

“I wonder what will happen to the Broken Blade after it absorbs the Meteor Star Steel ores’ power…”

After some consideration, Lin Xun decided to leave the Broken Blade here and continued down the tunnel with the No-Nonsense Bow in hand.

By this juncture, the bone-piercing murderous intent had become almost corporeal, allowing Lin Xun to realize that he was about to reach his destination!
