Chapter 271: The Excited Zhao Lin
Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Lucas
Eventually, Duan Ling Tian calmed his mood down.
"Time to go try out this Quake Energy!" Duan Ling Tian’s gaze lit up as he stood up.
His gaze then descended onto the two little pythons, and when he noticed they showed no signs of awakening, he shook his head then left the stalactite cave by himself.
Relying on his sharp Spiritual Force, Duan Ling Tian stood on the tilted tree on the side of the cliff and sensed the situation on the peak of the mountain.
After he confirmed there were no people, Duan Ling Tian used the tilted tree as a foothold and leaped up to the peak of Megrez Peak.
Duan Ling Tian walked into the most remote path on the peak, then he walked down the mountain. In next to no time, he’d passed the chain bridge and arrived at the main peak, Dubhe Peak.
Duan Ling Tian went down from Dubhe Peak, as his destination this time was the primeval forest behind the Seven Star Sword Sect....
After all, he couldn’t casually pull a Seven Star Sword Sect disciple over to test the Quake Energy, so he decided to go to the primeval forest and test the Wyrm Python Form’s Quake Energy on fierce beasts.
Duan Ling Tian flew down with a dash and quickly left the sect to head towards the primeval forest.
And at the moment that Duan Ling Tian left the sect, on the chain bridge from Megrez Peak to Dubhe Peak, two Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciples walked shoulder to shoulder.
One of the outer court disciple’s faces sank, and he said to the other outer court disciple beside him, "Huo Xin, that kid seems to have vanished."
"Megrez Peak is huge, so it isn’t an easy matter to find him....Moreover, I’ve practically asked all the 19 new disciples that came to Megrez Peak with us, but all those people don’t know where he is." The latter was precisely Huo Xin, and he now had a gloomy expression as he spoke.
"I don’t believe that he can hide forever! The incident in Black Bamboo City’s restaurant, I’ll surely make him pay it back a hundredfold. Actually daring to ask someone to throw us out...." The former’s gaze went slightly cold as a cold light shot out from his gaze.
"Don’t worry, Yuan Wu, we’ll drag him out sooner or later," Huo Xin slowly said, and his eyes flickered with a cold light that was not one bit lesser.
Before long, when they were just about to arrive at Dubhe Peak, the two of them saw an old man and a middle-aged man walk over shoulder to shoulder.
"Elder Lu, Elder Zhao." Huo Xin and Yuan Wu respectfully bowed to the old man and middle-aged man.
The old man nodded to the two of them. As for the middle-aged man, from the beginning till the end, he didn’t even look Huo Xin and Yuan Wu in the eye....Perhaps as far as he was concerned, Huo Xin and Yuan Wu still didn’t have the qualifications for him to look them in the eyes.
Huo Xin and Yuan Wu were slightly embarrassed as they swiftly left.
They’d long since heard of Elder Zhao Lin’s arrogance, so they didn’t feel surprised.
The old man was precisely Megrez Peak’s outer court elder, Lu Qiu.
Now, Lu Qiu and Zhao Lin walked shoulder to shoulder on the chain bridge as they walked towards the Megrez Peak in large strides.
"Zhao Lin, when I saw that Huo Xin earlier, I couldn’t help but recall that Duan Ling Tian.... That young man we met at Megrez Peak yesterday afternoon, do you still have an impression of him?" Lu Qiu said to Zhao Lin.
Zhao Lin nodded, and a trace of disdain appeared on the corners of his mouth.
As far as he was concerned, that was a pretty boy!
A pretty boy with skin that was simply whiter and more delicate than a woman’s.
"It’s exactly that Duan Ling Tian. I wonder what happened, as his skin was still a normal and healthy bronze color a few days ago when he’d just arrived at our Megrez Peak.... But in a day’s time, a tremendous change occurred on his skin, even to the extent his skin can be compared to a baby’s and is rosy. Truly unbelievable." As he finished speaking, Lu Qiu sighed with emotion and had a face full of shock.
"Hmm?" On hearing what Lu Qiu said, the eyes of Zhao Lin, who originally had a calm expression, abruptly lit up, and his breathing suddenly became hurried.
"Elder Lu, are you sure his skin wasn’t like that previously?" Zhao Lin looked at Lu Qiu and was slightly discomposed.
Although Lu Qiu didn’t know why Zhao Lin would suddenly be interested in Duan Ling Tian, he still nodded. "I’m sure. Two days ago, when I brought Huo Xin and another two outer court disciples to go receive the 20 new disciples that had passed the outer court test....That Duan Ling Tian was one of them, and he was also the person Huo Xin personally chose. I remember it clearly; at that time his skin was bronze."
"What? Is there something not right?" Lu Qiu asked Zhao Lin, as he had the feeling that Zhao Lin’s suddenly reaction might be because Zhao Lin had noticed something.
According to his knowledge, it was ordinarily impossible for Zhao Lin to be interested in such matters.
But today, his behavior departed from his normal behavior.
"It’s nothing." Zhao Lin shook his head, but deep within his gaze, a hard to notice glowing light that was burning flashed by. "I’m just curious, how could someone suddenly experience such a tremendous change."
Lu Qiu nodded. He thought like this as well and continued to walk shoulder to shoulder with Zhao Lin.
Zhao Lin walked by Lu Qiu’s side, but his mood was incomparably agitated....
Rebirth!
He could be sure that Duan Ling Tian had absolutely gone through the rebirth of legends.
As luck would have it, he’d just so happened to have seen the records relating to rebirth within an ancient record....
Allegedly, there was a miraculous liquid in Cloud Continent that once consumed could allow someone to be completely reborn.
And the natural talent in the Martial Dao of that person would undergo a tremendous change!
To attain the utmost limit.
Zhao Lin’s heart was trembling. He remembered clearly that the miraculous liquid was the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk.
Once one consumed the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk and was reborn, one’s skin would transform to become delicate like a baby’s....
He clearly remembered the writing on that ancient record! "The 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk. That pretty boy has consumed the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk...." Zhao Lin’s mood surged and couldn’t calm down for a long time.
But he didn’t dare shot it out, because after all, Lu Qiu was beside him now.
"I must get the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk from that pretty boy, I must!" Zhao Lin resolved in his heart.
"I hope that pretty boy can be sensible.... Even if I have to stop at nothing, I must still get the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk from him!" Traces of cold lights flashed deep within Zhao Lin’s eyes.
10,000 Year Stalactite Milk was sufficient to change his entire life....
No matter what, he must obtain it!
Duan Ling Tian naturally didn’t know that the matter of him consuming 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk had already been found out by someone.
Currently, he’d left the Seven Star Sword Sect and entered the vast primeval forest.
Whoosh!
Duan Ling Tian’s figure flashed, and the scenery of the primeval forest flashed swiftly by his side....
The Spirit Serpent Movement Technique was exerted by Duan Ling Tian to the limit!
"Roar!" A loud roar sounded out from ahead, causing Duan Ling Tian to unconsciously stop his steps.
In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian noticed that it was a Spiked Tiger with a strength comparable to a ninth level Core Formation martial artist, and its pair of fangs that were like spikes were its strongest martial skill.
Whoosh!
The Spiked Tiger had noticed him as well and dashed quickly at him before pouncing towards him.
"Bring it on!" Duan Ling Tian’s gaze shone, and he directly moved to intercept it.
At the same time that the Spiked Tiger pounced over, 12 ancient mammoth silhouettes appeared above it out of thin air....
Now when Duan Ling Tian attacked, only 12 ancient mammoth silhouettes appeared above him as well!
He didn’t plan to use his entire strength when faced with a ninth level Core Formation Stage Spiked Tiger; otherwise, his plan to test the Quake Energy would come to nothing, and his trip here would be meaningless.
He entered the primeval forest this time precisely to test the might of the Quake Energy.
"Roar!" The Spiked Tiger swiftly pounced at Duan Ling Tian. It opened up its bloody mouth and a bloody stench suffused the air, causing Duan Ling Tian to feel a wave of disgust.
Seeing the Spiked Tiger right before his eyes, Duan Ling Tian made his move.
Spirit Serpent Movement Technique!
Instantly, Duan Ling Tian seemed to have transformed into an incomparably agile spirit serpent that flashed behind the Spiked Tiger in the blink of an eye....
When the Spiked Tiger hadn’t reacted to Duan Ling Tian’s sudden movement, Duan Ling Tian attacked.
Dragon’s Finishing Touch!
Duan Ling Tian pointed out with his finger, and an ear-deafening, piercing howl sounded out. He’d directly left out the step of drawing the dragon and directly did the finishing touch!
Pu!
Duan Ling Tian’s finger that was suffused with Origin Energy descended down and directly pieced through the thick skin and flesh of the Spiked Tiger into its bones.
"Roar~" The Spiked Tiger roared out in grief, its sound filled with rage and despair.
Quake Energy!
The Origin Energy on the tip of Duan Ling Tian’s finger abruptly started vibrating, and vibrating with a terrifying frequency....
"Crackle crackle...." Instantly, the body of the Spiked Tiger started trembling, and its grievous roar stopped, then its enormous body crashed onto the floor and sent waves of sounds of bones shattering echoing out in the air.
"What a terrifying Quake Energy! I looked down upon it earlier." Duan Ling Tian withdrew his Origin Energy and stood there, and as he gazed at the Spiked Tiger’s body that was limp on the ground, a trace of coldness arose in his heart.
He’d clearly felt it earlier. When he pointed at the Spiked Tiger’s bones and executed the Quake Energy, the bones of the Spiked Tiger vibrated along with the Quake Energy, then shattered in the end....
And the shattered bone bits pierced into every part of the Spiked Tigers body, including its internal organs, causing the Spiked Tiger to directly die.
Duan Ling Tian let out a breath of cold air, and a trace of enthusiastic excitement appeared on his face.
Whoosh!
Duan Ling Tian, who was aroused didn’t stop at this, and continued to head into the primeval forest. This time, he planned to exert a cultivation that was one level lower than the fierce beast and see if he’s able to successfully kill the fierce beast....Once he succeeded, then the Quake Energy would really be too terrifying!
Before long, Duan Ling Tian encountered the next fierce beast.
This fierce beast was a second level Origin Core Stage fierce beast.... A Wind Leopard!
This Wind Leopard was adept at speed, and in terms of speed, it was absolutely outstanding amongst second level Origin Core Stage fierce beasts.
The Wind Leopard charged at Duan Ling Tian with a swift dash, and it opened up its blood mouth with fangs that flickered with the sheen of saliva, desiring to swallow Duan Ling Tian with one gulp!
Above the Wind Leopard, 30 ancient mammoth silhouettes appeared.
The Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciple attire on Duan Ling Tian’s figure fluttered, and above him, 20 ancient mammoth silhouettes had appeared....
He wanted to try to see if he could kill this Wind Leopard with the strength of the first level of the Origin Core Stage.
