Chapter 1435 The Feeling of Slapping

Lin Xun let out a sigh and did not think about it any more and started collecting trophies.

The most important thing was to gather Divinity Primordial Crystals.

He already learned that the Divinity Primordial Crystals he had consumed during his cultivation over the past year were all collected by experts of the empire camp.

This was the fundamental reason why he was given the name ‘parasite.’

Lin Xun decided that he must make up for it. He never liked to take advantage of others. But most importantly, being called a parasite was too shameful.

On Turtle Hibernation Mountain, there were still some untouched ore veins of Divinity Primordial Crystals, and Lin Xun did not hesitate to dig them all out one by one.

After that, he glanced up at the sky and said aloud, “It’s still quite early. Let’s find another place with some decent opponents.”

Shi Yu nodded in a distracted manner.

Immediately, he came to his senses, exclaiming, “What do you mean? You still want to kill enemies?”

Lin Xun answered in a matter-of-fact tone, “Of course, it’s still early, it would be a waste of time coming out here if we don’t do more.”

Shi Yu felt a wave of dizziness. Until now, he still had not figured out why Lin Xun’s strength would be so terrifying, so he was still in an indescribable state of shock.

But Lin Xun actually planned to continue killing enemies. Shi Yu could not help but wonder whether his friend saw the enemies as just cabbages that he could chop up as he wished.

“Let’s go.” Lin Xun urged.

He originally planned to tell Shi Yu that if the duel was based on qi cultivation, there would be no need to go to such trouble. All he had to do was release Taixuan Sword Qi and the battle would end right away.

But seeing that Shi Yu had freaked out already, he held back in the end. He was worried that his friend wouldn’t be able to bear the shock of the truth…

……

One hour later.

The two came to a vast blue lake, with patches of lush green lotus leaves and rosy pink lotus flowers.

The green lotuses were spread as far as the boundless sky, and the lotus flowers under the sunlight were particularly red and bright.

The scene was as beautiful as a painting.

Shi Yu had calmed down completely and accepted the fact that Lin Xun possessed terrifying strength.

But when he arrived at the location, his expression still turned serious. “This is the Green Lotus Lake, which was occupied by experts of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races just yesterday. At the time, a conflict broke out between our empire camp and them over a part of treasured land. In the end, two of our comrades died…

“You must be careful. I heard that among the experts stationed here, several are ranked in the top thirty of the Ten Thousand Races Combat Power Ranking. Hey, hey, hey...I haven’t finished speaking yet!”

Shi Yu was exasperated to find that Lin Xun had already darted into the depths of the lake.

Unsurprisingly, a battle broke out.

This time, Lin Xun’s opponents were seven experts from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races, and they were of a similar cultivation stage as the Magi Brutes he encountered earlier.

But each one of them had tyrannical strength.

In particular, several of them possessed remarkable skills and rich combat experience. As a result, they demonstrated much more terrifying powers.

Lin Xun was not shocked but instead overjoyed to see that. He quickly circulated his physical cultivation and met them head-on.

After observing carefully for a moment, Shi Yu had to admit that if he was in Lin Xun’s place, he would not be able to hold on for long.

Or perhaps, if he was faced with such an unfavorable and dangerous situation, his first decision might have been to flee instead of fighting.

After all, there were some tricky opponents among them. Shi Yu was not afraid to fight them alone, but if he was to deal with all of them at once, it would be wiser to retreat.

This made Shi Yu realize that after not seeing Lin Xun for over ten years, he had become extremely strong, far beyond imagination.

In about the time it took to drink a cup of tea…

The battle ended with blood diffused across the green lake. After Lin Xun cleaned up the trophies, he let out an unsatisfied sigh.

“Are you still not content?” Shi Yu widened his eyes.

“There was pressure, but not too much. It is difficult to hone my cultivation with just that.” Lin Xun urged, “Let’s go, while it’s still bright, let’s continue to look for enemies.”

Shi Yu’s expression morphed indefinitely, and after a while he smiled bitterly, “You have my respect. I don’t respect anyone else, but you!”

After that, he happily guided Lin Xun around.

Over the past year, the empire camp had to retreat in defeat again and again. Shi Yu and other empire experts had a lot of pent-up grievances as a result.

Although the way that Lin Xun went on a killing spree and crushed all enemies left Shi Yu speechless and astonished, he was still extremely delighted and satisfied.

The unpleasant feelings in his heart had been vented.

He even wanted to see how much enemy territory Lin Xun could take down before dark.

Snow Mist Mountain was covered in pure white snow all year round and shrouded in mist. Its icy and glittering peaks and snowy landscape shone in the sunlight.

The mountains had plentiful Divinity Primordial Crystals, but it was extremely difficult to harvest them. The Magi Brute camp had been stationed there for over half a month already.

Moreover, in order to defend this mine, the Magi Brute camp had dispatched eighteen elite king stage cultivators.

But after Lin Xun arrived, in less than an hour, the eighteen elite Magi Brutes were slaughtered, and the snow-capped mountain peaks were dyed with blood.

Spirit Wind Valley.

This was a place under the control of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races.

Ghostly river.

A place controlled by the Magi Brute force.

Broken Star Abyss.

In the following time, places under the control of the Magi Brute camp and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races were uprooted one after another.

He was unstoppable.

……

At nightfall.

Lin Xun and Shi Yu returned to the camp.

“Ha, the parasite is back.”

Many experts donned disgusted looks when they saw Lin Xun.

This time, Lin Xun corrected them. “In the past, I did not know about the situation and caused you to misunderstand me. The scolding I received was justified. But don’t worry, I will compensate you all, but at the same time, I don’t want to hear the word ‘parasite’ ever again. That name is really awful.” He walked away back to the mountaintop.

Everyone looked at each other blankly, and then they couldn’t help sneering.

“Misunderstand? It’s been a year. Who doesn’t know the fact that you, Lin Xun, is a parasite? Yet you are still pretending. How insufferable,” fumed a girl.

“Ignore him, just a parasite making a fuss.”

Some people snorted with contempt at Lin Xun’s words.

“But he said he would compensate us,” someone said doubtfully.

“Compensation my butt. Over the past year, he alone consumed tens of thousands of Divinity Primordial Crystals. I haven’t even talked about the divine herbs he wasted. How can he compensate for that?” Someone gnashed their teeth.

One sentence successfully sparked the anger and dissatisfaction in others’ hearts. They all lamented and their faces became overcast.

A huge amount of scarce cultivation resources was wasted by a parasite. It was beyond infuriating!

Shi Yu had yet to leave. Watching everyone grit their teeth and their eyes smolder with resentment, anger and hatred, he suddenly felt an indescribable feeling of sympathy and pity.

He flickered his sleeve, and a small hill suddenly appeared on the ground. It was glittering and dazzling, emitting divine light.

Everyone who was filled with immense indignation suddenly froze and couldn’t help but rub their eyes. Only then were they finally sure that the hill was actually made up of a heap of Divinity Primordial Crystals!

“There must be at least three thousand of them, isn’t that right?” someone cried out in astonishment.

Anyone who caught sight of so many Divinity Primordial Crystals would be dumbfounded. After all, Divinity Primordial Crystals were not cabbages that could be found anywhere.

Rather, it was a rare precious treasure that had great beneficial effects on a Saint’s cultivation!

Generally speaking, the most that an empire camp expert could collect in a day was around five to ten Divinity Primordial Crystals. It was no wonder that the sudden appearance of thousands of crystals had such a huge impact.

Someone asked in a trembling voice, “Those...Brother Shi did you collect them?”

Shi Yu said coldly, “I also wished I collected them, but unfortunately, it wasn’t me.”

“Then who?”

“Lin Xun,” Shi Yu softly uttered a name, and then he saw everyone’s expressions change from one to another. They were taken aback at first, then stunned, and then they looked uncertain, as if they could not believe what they heard, but also as if they had been struck by lightning.

Wonderful!

For the first time, Shi Yu found that the feeling of slapping someone in the face was so refreshing and indescribably satisfying.

Before the crowd reacted…

He flicked his sleeve once again, and another pile of divine herbs appeared on the ground. Each one flowing with dao lights and emitting a captivating medicinal aroma. The area was dyed a beautiful and magnificent hue.

“This…”

Everyone spaced out from astonishment. Thɪs chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . (ꜰ)ire.ɴet

Divine herbs were more valuable and precious than Divinity Primordial Crystals. Moreover, after more than ten years of harvesting, the number of divine herbs in Blood Kill Battlefield had become increasingly scarce.

But now, over twenty kinds of divine herbs were presented in front of them. This spectacular sight had an even greater impact on the crowd.

Their expressions changed indefinitely, their emotions churned in their chest, and they were silent for a long while.

The same thought surfaced in their minds: Could those divine herbs also be the doing of Lin Xun just like those Divinity Primordial Crystals?

Without waiting for them to ask, Shi Yu spoke aloud, “You guessed right, these divine herbs are also Lin Xun’s trophies.”

Everyone’s jaw dropped from that one sentence.

Shi Yu felt as satisfied and refreshed as if he had eaten ginseng fruit. The feeling of slapping someone in the face was too addicting.

His only regret was that he was not the owner of those trophies...

Thinking of this, he glanced up at the mountaintop and muttered in his heart, “That guy must be secretly enjoying this now, isn’t that right?”

“How could this be done by that parasite?” Zhao Jingfeng questioned. He had never bothered to speak out before, but now, after the impact of the shock, he could not suppress his emotions and blurted out.

Everyone else nodded. How could a parasite collect so many treasures after just going out for a walk?

Who would believe it?

Shi Yu couldn’t help but sneer, “If Lin Xun is a parasite, then what do you think you are? Ignorance is not an excuse!”

After that, he walked away.

That night, the news that Lin Xun had collected a tremendous amount of Divinity Primordial Crystals and divine herbs caused a huge sensation across Yuncang Mountain.

Most people were skeptical about the news, thinking that Shi Yu and the others were just helping Lin Xun to cover up his shame. Only very few people believed it.

The most likely explanation was that the treasures were collected by Shi Yu and other friends of Lin Xun!

“Whether it is true or not, we’ll know when we go out and take a look tomorrow morning.”

In the end, many people decided to go out and check tomorrow.
