It must be the effect of that saint fruit! Lin Xuns speculation amazed even himself.

He just sat there overnight, bathing in the divine brilliance radiating from the saint fruit, but his cultivation soared to the perfect level of the upper Heaven Ascension Stage. It was too unbelievable.

What kind of miraculous effect would the saint fruit have if I had consumed it?

Soon, he took a deep breath and stopped thinking about it.

Everything that happened last night seemed too absurd and unreal, like a dream. But, in the end, it saved him from a catastrophe!

Mu Lingfeng had died, and Jin Duzhen and Cang Lanxue had also died. But it was a blessing in disguise for him. Not only did he hear secrets about the Saint Path, but his cultivation was also further transformed by a lucky coincidence!

I wonder what the golden cicadas background is. Why is it hibernating in the Mulberry Woodland? Also, the blood-red moth and the white cicada have both set foot into the Saint Stage, so why are they staying around there?

He didnt know, but he was sure that, when a certain opportunity appeared, the dormant living beings of the saint path would appear out of nowhere!

Before long, he quickly left the area with a flash.

Along the way, he carefully searched the area as before, hoping to find more jade stones. As for the unrivaled opportunity, he had already given up on it.

There were not only Life Death Stage Kings in the Mulberry Woodland, but also terrifying creatures of the Saint Stage. Even if a great opportunity descended, he knew he couldnt compete with them.

The damn Magi Brute bastards are getting more and more arrogant. Do they really think they have the upper hand in the Mulberry Woodland?

Our cultivators situation indeed isnt looking too optimistic. We are lucky to escape in time. Otherwise, we would be captured to be used as cannon fodder or forced to work for those bastards.

Argh! If there were a few more ruthless characters like Lin Twelve among our empire cultivators, we wouldnt be suffering so badly.

A series of cursing and complaints in the blood-red fog caught Lin Xuns attention.

He couldnt help but approach the several cultivators fleeing for their lives and asked, Everyone, whats going on ahead?

A middle-aged man said indignantly, What else could it be? There is sacred light emanating from a natural cave ahead, but the Magi Brute bastards have occupied the area and captured cultivators of the empire to investigate and dig for treasures for them! Its simply ridiculous!

Young man, quickly run. Dont get too close there. Powerful experts of the Magi Brute Race have taken control of the area. There is also a half-step king watching over everything. You are just throwing away your life if you go there. The other cultivators persuaded Lin Xun one after another.

Oh, I understand. Thank you very much. Lin Xun nodded and continued onwards.

Mu Lingfeng and the others had been trying to hunt him down and almost killed him. He was still simmering with rage because of that and now, he finally found a way to vent that pent-up anger.

Heis he not listening to us? Is he not afraid of death?

The cultivators stared stunned at Lin Xun as he headed in the same direction that they had escaped from.

No! Dont you think that the youngster looks very similar to Lin Twelve from the rumors! Someones eyes suddenly lit up.

What? Isnt he dead?

Heavens, this is big news! He survived being chased by three half-step kings! Hes so strong!

The cultivators clamored with excitement. After thinking about it carefully, they were more and more convinced that the youngster they saw just now was Lin Twelve!

This was because the youngster was armed with an extremely rough and large bone bow, which was a signature weapon of Lin Twelve, and had left a deep impression on everyone!

Someone suggested, tempting the other cultivators, Should we follow after him?

Lets go! Another person gritted their teeth and took the lead, returning on the same path.

The other cultivators quickly followed after him.

The stench of blood hung in the air ahead and mutilated corpses were everywhere, all of them were empire cultivators.

A mighty old man stood there like a boulder, monitoring the area with a chilling and terrifying gaze.

He was called Teng Hai and was from the Wood Tribe. Previously, he had slaughtered many empire cultivators and had also captured some empire cultivators.

Now, he was ordering the empire cultivators to dig around a nearby cave that was glowing with sacred light in case of hidden dangers.

Other Magi Brute experts were also watching closely nearby.

Huh? Another fish walked into the net. Teng Hai smiled. This little guy has the guts to come here on his own.

The nearby Magi Brute experts laughed mockingly.

Did you kill the people on the ground? Lin Xun ran his eyes over the mutilated corpses on the ground, remaining very calm.

Many enslaved empire cultivators were alarmed and looked over at Lin Xun.

What are you looking at? Do you want to die? Keep digging! Teng Hai reprimanded, strong murderous intent swirling around him.

The empire cultivators reddened with anger, but they had no choice but to lower their heads and continue to dig around the underground cave.

Teng Hai said contemptuously, Little guy, so what if I killed them? Dont just stand there. If you dont want to die then hurry up and work like them!

Hey, something seems wrong. Elder, the kid seems to be... A Magi Brute experts expression dramatically changed as he noticed something.

Bang!

Before he could finish, Lin Xun drew the No-Nonsense Bow. The Biluo Arrow rumbled across the air, producing countless visions. A terrifying aura of destruction instantly enveloped the area.

Its him! Teng Hais eyes almost popped out and his face distorted.

Then, he unleashed a furious roar and soared into the sky

As a half-step king, Teng Hai had incredible reaction speed. But he was still caught off guard. He was already one step too late when he tried to avoid the arrow.

Pu!

The cultivators whom Lin Xun ran into had caught up one after another and happened to see a black divine arrow streak across the sky, pierce Teng Hai, causing a fountain of scarlet blood to erupt.

It was as though a blood-red firework had exploded in the air.

A half-step king was killed within seconds before their eyes. Everyone was so aghast that they lost their voices!

The power of the arrow was as frightening as rumored!

The empire cultivators simultaneously thought of a name: Lin Twelve!

Only he had such a heaven-defying arrow and archery skills!

The nearby Magi Brute experts stood petrified. How could they have thought that a youngster who suddenly appeared could kill a half-step king with one arrow?

So fast!

Their minds went blank.

Lin Xun took advantage of the opportunity to launch a bloodbath. He unsheathed the Broken Blade without any hesitation.

Blood-curdling screams followed, jolting awake the empire cultivators who were in a state of shock. With a roar, they quickly charged forward like they had just woken up from a dream and fought alongside Lin Xun.

Kill!

Kill those bastards!

They finally had the chance to vent their anger from watching the empire cultivators being captured and enslaved.

Within seconds, more than a dozen Magi Brute experts were slaughtered and dyed the area blood red.

All the cultivators of the empire quickly stepped forward to thank Lin Xun one after another, their eyes blazing with undisguised awe and admiration.

Lin Twelve deserved his reputation!

More importantly, they were rescued by him, and they had witnessed his remarkable feat of killing a half-step king with one arrow!

Lin Xun felt uncomfortable facing their enthusiasm and so he told them to hurry up and collect the spoils, while he came to the natural cave.

The cave entrance was only three feet wide, but it connected to the underground like a beast's den. The inside was glowing with divine azure lights.

There had to be some treasure hidden in the depths of the cave!

But at the same time, Lin Xun also sensed a dangerous aura within the cave that made his blood run cold.

Whats in here? Lin Xun asked a cultivator.

The cultivator hurriedly answered, Im not too sure, but I heard a half-step king of the Magi Brute Race say that the treasures contained in it are filled with extremely amazing vitality. It may be a miracle medicine.

Lin Xun raised his brows. Miracle medicine?

But why did he feel his heart shaking with fear? When he peered down into the cave, there seemed to be eyes staring straight at him.

He drew a deep breath and commanded, You guys should leave here first. Ill give it a try. Remember, the farther you go, the better.

The cultivators didnt dare to ignore his command and quickly darted to the distant areas.

Lin Xun picked up the Broken Blade, gritted his teeth, and was about to split open the cave when a beam of jade-green light shot up!

At that moment, he saw a pair of eyes snap open in the depths of the cave. They were cold, indifferent and swirling with terrifying jade-green light. The eyes were as deep and unfathomable as the universe and cast terrifying visions such as the changing sun and moon.

Swoosh!

A strong feeling of unease flooded Lin Xuns heart, but he dared not waver in the slightest. He activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step with all his strength and instantly vanished from the spot.

When he was almost one hundred miles away, his heart was still throbbing violently. It was too terrifying!

There seemed to be a terrifying creature lying dormant under the ground, and it was also very likely to be a Saint-level being just like the blood-red moth, white cicada and golden cicada!

He cursed, Who said theres a miracle medicine?! His back was drenched in cold sweat. The Mulberry Woodland was too abnormal with unpredictable dangers hidden everywhere.

Before long, the empire cultivators rushed over one after another. Even if they were miles away, they still sensed the terrifying aura and felt chilled to the bone. They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Lin Xun was unwounded.

The cultivators shared more than half of the spoils with Lin Xun, including many rare jade stones and other rare aeth materials.

Lin Xun politely accepted their offer. After all, he had been searching for those rare jade stones.

A thought suddenly struck him

Perhaps, I can try killing Magi Brute experts and collecting their jade stones so I can help the Broken Blade transform.
