Chapter Ch414 – Quick Retreat

Edited by Rose

In three days, each of them had made a breakthrough.

In addition to Lin Xuanzhi’s direct success of jumping to two realms and reaching the peak of Primary Realm’s Condensed Pulse Stage with minor attainment, several others also made great progress.

Yan Tianhen, Duan Yuyang, Yuan Tianwen, Leng Jixue, Huangfu Jin, Ji Yunwei, and Ren Fuyao had broken through the Primary Realm Calcified Bones Stage, but they differed in minor and major attainments.

Qing Zhu was originally in the Profound Realm, and now, he had reached the major attainment of the Unified Spirit Stage.

Xiao Linfeng’s body had Qing Zhu’s core. By taking advantage of this, it turned out his cultivation had reached the same realm as Lin Xuanzhi, which made Xiao Linfeng happy.

After such a fortuitous opportunity, the cultivation power of several people was reshuffled. Lin Xuanzhi, who had been a little behind in cultivation, had now rushed to the front.

After three days, they all opened their eyes and came back to their senses.

These three days were the longest three days in their lives. They felt as if a long time had passed.

Because the spiritual Qi was very rich and pure, the speed of cultivating was extremely fast but it did not bring them any adverse effects. Instead, all of them felt refreshed. After the expansion of their Dantian and veins, not only was the spiritual Qi in their bodies surging like a turbulent sea, but their sense of sound, smell, and sight became much clearer.

However, when they saw their surroundings, they were stunned. “It was only three days, how did their surroundings get so shabby?”

“My God, it used to be a cave, but now it’s an open space?”

“This is a wilderness.”

“What about the lake? What about the Twin Lotus Lamp we saw?”

“Ah, it must have been taken away by Yin Chongyue.”

Ji Yunwei thumped his chest bitterly and lamented, “If I had known, I would have snatched that Twin Lotus Lamp away.”

Lin Xuanzhi glanced at him. “I’m afraid you’re no match for him.”

When Lin Xuanzhi had opened his eyes, he looked where Yan Tianhen last was. However, he found the spot empty. He wondered where he went.

Lin Xuanzhi frowned and just got up to look around when he heard a tiger roar. A lively teenager came riding on the back of a white tiger with an amethyst suspended on its forehead and rushed towards his side excitedly– “Dage!” The young man waved at Lin Xuanzhi.

Lin Xuanzhi froze.

Yan Tianhen jumped off Ah Bai’s back, rushed toward Lin Xuanzhi, and hugged him. He joyously said, “Dage, Ah Bai and Hu Po have broken through the Wisdom stage and are officially adult tigers!”

Ah Bai puffed his chest out with pride and roared toward the sky.

Very different from the previous immature roar, this tiger roar has the momentum of a king of beasts.

Hu Po lazily walked beside Ah Bai, swung his tail, and climbed down.

These two tiger cubs could be called Tangying. They directly transitioned from the Infant stage to the Wisdom stage, and their bodies had grown up, with a full length of three meters. They seemed powerful.

Lin Xuanzhi just glanced at the two white tigers, and his line of sight fell on Yan Tianhen again.

“Three days ago, you didn’t reach my chest. Why are you about to reach my chin now?” Lin Xuanzhi was doubtful and confused. He pinched Yan Tianhen’s face which was much clearer than before but still looked delicate.

Duan Yuyang was also stunned and asked, “Damn, do you think it hasn’t been three days but three years?”

He went to touch his stomach and found that it was much rounder than before!

Qing Zhu also thought it was suspicious. “What is going on here?”

He was an Inquiring Immortals Grass, and there wouldn’t be plenty of changes to his appearance for thousands of years, so he didn’t feel much. But when he looked at the other people, there were some differences more or less. For example, Lin Xuanzhi’s hair had grown a little longer, and Huangfu Jin actually had a beard, looking as if he’d experienced a lot of vicissitudes at once……

However, no one had changed more than Yan Tianhen.

Yan Tianhen laughed and said with great joy, “When I woke up, I watched the surrounding environment change, so I went around to inspect the situation and came to a river. When I looked at my reflection, I found that I had grown up! Hahahahaha!”

Yan Tianhen happily thought in his heart, I used to dream of being an adult when I wake up, but I didn’t expect my wish to come true now. Does it seem that when people still have dreams, it might one day come true?

Yuan Tianwen stared at Duan Yuyang and looked at him carefully. “Doesn’t seem to have changed much.”

Duan Yuyang felt his stomach. “This little cub inside is quite round.”

Yuan Tianwen immediately reached out to touch it.

Leng Jixue looked at his hand and was a little dazed. He fixed his mind and said, “I’m afraid the three days we experienced were not just three days, but three years.”

Lin Xuanzhi nodded. “I also have this doubt, but Yin Chongyue has disappeared. This kind of thing can’t be known until we leave the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest.”

Ji Yunwei stretched his waist and replied, “The boundary of the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest has been opened as expected, and the Great Demon-Sealing Array has disappeared. It seems that everything has returned to normal, which is a good thing.”

Yan Tianhen looked around and said sadly, “It’s a pity that the Twin Lotus Lamp was taken away by Yin Chongyue. It’s a pity; it’s such a powerful magic treasure.”

Ren Fuyao heard this and shook his head regretfully. But he didn’t say anything.

If he could get a chance to improve himself, he would already be satisfied. As for other benefits, Ren Fuyao was not an unappreciative person, and he would not insist on it.

However, Ren Bulin’s side might not be so easily satisfied.

Just then, there was a brushing sound in the surrounding vegetation. Lin Xuanzhi’s spirit surged and he held Zhige in hand, ready to attack whatever was before him.

“Don’t point your sword at me!” A white fox with nine tails ran over with an ugly expression. “The man he brought here has revealed the situation to outsiders. Now everyone outside thinks you have the Twin Lotus Lamp in your possession. Someone is coming over to steal it. Please leave quickly!”

Ji Yunwei rushed to him with emotion. “Ah Jiu! You’re finally willing to come out to see me! Come and give me a hug!”

The Nine-Tailed Fox quickly shifted into a human form. A tall handsome young man in white robes with a circle of fox tail collar around his neck stretched out his hand and dragged Ji Yunwei in his embrace.

Ji Yunwei, “…”

Fuck! Where was his fox cub? Who the hell was this big bastard?

The Nine-Tailed Fox imprisoned Ji Yunwei’s body with one hand and teased Ji Yunwei’s chin with one hand like a little fox cub. He said leisurely, “Are you not clear about the situation?”

Ji Yunwei laughed awkwardly. “I’m sorry, I mistook you for the wrong fox.”

“Tsk.” Nine-Tailed Fox clicked his tongue. “You’re not mistaken. The beasts have many forms. The small one is me and the big one is also me. If you dare not listen to me and go deep into this Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest again, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”

Looking at this man and fox intimacy, Duan Yuyang’s eyes almost rolled back to the heavens.

He endured it, but he couldn’t resist saying, “I say, even if you two want to sleep and roll around in the sheets, why don’t you do it another time? You just said there was a traitor among us. What happened?”

The Nine-Tailed Fox rolled his eyes and replied, “How would I know? Let’s just wait and see who comes here first. Don’t you want to know who revealed the details to others?”

That’s a good idea– yeah right ah!

Ji Yunwei looked awkward and narrowed his eyes. “They’ll be here soon. Should we fight or run? We must make a decision immediately.”

Huangfu Jin said, “How do you know?”

Ji Yunwei said, “Every time I walk, I leave a soul mark that can sense people’s souls. I can feel that they are coming soon.”

Lin Xuanzhi looked at Yan Tianhen. “Those people may not immediately believe that the Twin Lotus Lamp is not in our hands. There’s no need for such a conflict at this time.”

Yuan Tianwen nodded. “I’m too lazy to fight. Since the news got out, my dad must have sent someone. Why don’t we run first and explain later?”

As a result, they quickly reached an agreement and all possible schemes were thought of in advance.

The Nine-Tailed Fox blinked and said, “I’ll take Ji Yunwei and arrange it by myself.”

He was very familiar with the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest, and he was not afraid to meet the cultivators at all.

After saying that, the Nine-Tailed Fox didn’t stay and also didn’t listen to Ji Yunwei’s protests. He just picked him up directly and disappeared in a puff of smoke in front of everyone.

Next, the rest of the people also quickly decided to leave the place for fear of being under siege.

Lin Xuanzhi took out several stealth magic weapons that he made while cultivating. Although the level was not high, there was nothing to be picky about now.

It was enough for two people to share one.

Duan Yuyang refined some ground-shrinking talismans which could make people reach ten miles in an instant, but it was just that this talisman consumed a lot of spiritual Qi. Duan Yuyang did not refine much of it. He could only give one for each person and use it to save their lives at a critical time.

After getting ready, they did not stop at the same place and immediately borrowed the magic weapon of invisibility. They each ran toward the east side of the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest.

Shortly after Lin Xuanzhi and others left, a cultivator arrived at their previous spot.

“The strange astronomical phenomena before came from this place.” A young cultivator vowed, “And judging from the footprints left here, there must be a demonic beast tiger passing by.”

“Yes, there are always two tigers cubs around Yan Tianhen and Lin Xuanzhi, but this tiger paw mark could never be made by a young one.”

On the thick soil, a few large plum paw prints were left behind and were clearly presented to them.

An older cultivator narrowed his eyes. “According to the information I bought, it can be seen that the two tiger cubs are only seven stars in Infant stage. However, with such a large body size, they must have made a breakthrough. Moreover, the news claimed that they have obtained the ancient artifact Twin Lotus Lamp, which could make one’s cultivation jump thousands of miles in a day. I don’t know how far they have come now.”

With that, the older cultivator’s eyes filled with greed.

As soon as the words fell, another wave of cultivators came over.

“Old man Hong Kui?” The leader looked at the old man and sneered. “You ran fast enough.”
