Chapter 307 Information (1/2)
A red flash swept across the sky like lightning, as a faint sound of thunder rang out. This red flash’s speed was extremely quick, it practically swept across the horizon in the blink of an eye before slowly landing on a peak deep within the mountains.
Lin Dong leapt off Little Flame’s tiger back and casually threw the unconscious Teng Lei to the ground and took a quick look behind him. This place was already some distance from Great Puppet City and he was extremely cautious during his retreat this time. In all likelihood, even with the Ghastly Puppet Cult’s power, they would find it difficult to give chase.
“I did not think that there would actually be a half-step-to Manifestation practitioner stationed within Great Puppet City. The Ghastly Puppet Cult’s strength is indeed not to be underestimated.” Lin Dong’s eyebrows light furrowed. This time, he was originally enough to destroy Great Puppet City’s Ghastly Puppet Cult branch division, but Cao Zhen’s appearance had obstructed Lin Dong’s plan. With his current strength, practically no one could contend against him among the Qi Creation stage, but when faced with practitioners at the half-step-to Manifestation like Cao Zhen, even Lin Dong would find it somewhat troublesome.
Like he had said previously, he was able to defeat a half-step-to Manifestation stage practitioner like Cao Zhen by borrowing the power of the Great Desolate Imprisoning Heavenly Finger, but had no way to kill the latter. No matter what, the difference between the two’s power was still there.
Of course, if he relied on Little Marten’s power, killing Cao Zhen would be another matter, but if he did so, it would expose Little Marten’s strength. Lin Dong was not willing to do something like revealing his trump cards in front of countless people.
“Fortunately, my goal this time has been achieved…” Lin Dong suddenly looked towards Teng Lei and spoke in an indifferent tone: “If you’ve awoken then open your eyes, if you have no use, then I will have no need to keep you alive.”
Upon hearing Lin Dong’s words, Teng Lei’s tightly shut eyes immediately opened. He wore an icy expression as he stared at the former and said in a stern voice: “Lin Dong, do you really want to completely offend our Ghastly Puppet Cult?”
“Didn’t things developed to this stage because of you all?” Lin Dong chuckled. Soon after, he stared at Teng Lei, an icy light in his eyes: “You wanted to leave me for dead in the ancient tablet space, yet you did not think that I would still escape. This debt should be paid right?”
“Who do you think you are, you dare to take revenge!” Teng Lei sneered and quickly slapped the ground with his palm as his figure hastily retreated.
“Roar!”
“Plop!”
After receiving this heavy blow, Teng Lei’s face turned red as he immediately vomited a mouthful of fresh blood and his body heavily knocked against a boulder.
“Do you really think that I dare not kill you?” Lin Dong’s eyes were apathetic. With a flick of his mind, a Mental Energy flame appeared and slowly hovered in front of Teng Lei, causing him to not dare to move even the slightest bit.
“What exactly do you want?” Teng Lei’s expression was layered with green and red. He could feel the killing intent gushing out from Lin Dong’s eyes and after several exchanges, he knew that Lin Dong was no compassionate soul. Thus, Teng Lei could only unwilling shout out in response.
“I want to know some information about your Ghastly Puppet Cult.” Lin Dong smiled a little and said.
“In your dreams! Moreover, I’m afraid the more you know, the more you’ll understand how foolish your actions are.” Teng Lei sneered.
“You know, there are some Secret Spirit Skills that are able to directly search a person’s memories. However, after using them, the victim’s mind will become unclear. I believe that you do not wish for me to use such methods right?” Lin Dong smiled.
“You!” Upon hearing this, Teng Lei’s expression immediately changed. He had naturally heard of these extremely vicious Secret Spirit Skills. They had extremely serious repercussions on their victims and a little slip could even directly cause one to become retarded.
“What do you want to know?” Expression fluctuating, Teng Lei finally gritted his teeth and said. Although he did not understand whether Lin Dong was scaring him or not, Teng Lei did not want to gamble with his life.
Upon seeing this, Lin Dong smiled. He naturally did not know any of these vicious Secret Spirit Skills, but using it to scare Teng Lei evidently showed good results.
“During the last opening of the Great Wastelands Ancient Tablet, your Ghastly Puppet Cult obtained something at the bottom of the Symbol Puppet Lair right?”
After hearing these words, Teng Lei’s pupils abruptly shrunk. Soon after, his head lowered a little as he sneered: “I don’t know.”
“*Sigh*.” Lin Dong softly sighed. His sleeve waved as the Mental Energy flame ruthlessly slammed into Teng Lei’s head. Waves of burning hot energy frantically diffused into the latter’s Niwan Palace, scorching the Mental Energy within.
“Ah!”
Having his Niwan Palace invaded by Mental Energy fire, Teng Lei mournfully cried out. This kind of pain was several times more intense than flesh wounds.
