chapter 461: chapter 158: golden core peak, refining the nirvana elixir

however.

after lin jing’s divine sense delved into it, he discovered that the aura of the puppet guild leader still lingered on the heaven concealing qiankun robe.

lin jing was utterly unable to remove it.

it seemed that this was because the puppet guild leader had used the blood refinement method.

therefore, even though he was already dead,

lin jing still couldn’t allow others to refine the heaven concealing qiankun robe.

afterward, lin jing stimulated his divine sense, attempting to forcefully refine it.

however, he found that no matter what he did, he couldn’t erase the aura of the puppet guild leader inside,

and he was also unable to refine the heaven concealing qiankun robe himself.

unable to refine it meant he couldn’t use it, and lin jing felt quite helpless about it.

he could only look for other methods to refine it, but lin jing had nothing at hand and thus had to give up.

then, lin jing stored the heaven concealing qiankun robe away.

after storing the heaven concealing qiankun robe and seeing that it was still early, lin jing continued to sit in meditation and cultivate within the system space…

…

…

just like that, until the next day’s early morning.

as soon as it was dawn, lin jing left the system space and departed from that place.

this time, with the puppet guild leader and all seventeen puppet guild cultivators annihilated, it would undoubtedly cause an earthquake.

lin jing didn’t want anyone to know it was his doing.

so, as soon as dawn broke, lin jing left the cave and once again flew northward to a distant mountain, where he created a new cave dwelling meant for long-term residence.

after establishing the new cave dwelling, lin jing changed his appearance back to the one he had used during the trade meeting and returned to the vicinity of the sea of blood beach.

this time, lin jing was looking for xu ye.

for a long time to come, lin jing had no plans to appear in his true form, so he had to inform xu ye about this matter.

upon reaching the mountain where xu ye was located, xu ye was quite puzzled upon seeing lin jing and didn’t understand why lin jing would come so early.

lin jing immediately spoke up, saying to xu ye,

“xu daoyou, in the coming period, i’m going to start secluding myself for cultivation, and i am here to inform you…”

“furthermore…”

“the puppet guild leader is dead, and without the leader, the puppet guild will probably disappear soon.”

xu ye wasn’t surprised to hear about lin jing’s planned seclusion.

but lin jing’s subsequent words left xu ye so shocked that his mouth hung open.

xu ye’s eyes widened as he looked at lin jing and then exclaimed in astonishment,

“lin daoyou, you killed the puppet guild leader?”

lin jing nodded and replied,

“along with the leader, all eighteen puppet guild cultivators have perished…”

upon hearing this, xu ye instantly drew a sharp breath.

“hiss…”

“eighteen…”

“lin daoyou, you are actually this powerful?”

lin jing then opened his mouth and explained,

“i am inherently a body refinement cultivator, but it was just a trick; i used blood corpses to eliminate them.”

upon hearing this, xu ye immediately understood and said,

“no wonder…”

“however, lin daoyou, you have eradicated the puppet guild by yourself, including the eighteen cultivators, even if you used blood corpses, it is no small feat.”

after speaking, xu ye continued,

“without that leader, the puppet guild will probably disappear shortly. brother lin, you have indeed eliminated a scourge for all the cultivators in the devouring spirit blood realm.”

lin jing then looked at xu ye and said,

“i hope you will keep this matter confidential, xu daoyou…”

xu ye nodded and replied,

“rest assured, lin daoyou, i will not tell anyone about this.”

lin jing nodded, then added,

“for this period of seclusion, i intend to break through directly to the golden core peak and feel the power of the heavenly tribulation before emerging.”

“if anything major happens, xu daoyou can come looking for me directly. my new cave dwelling is located on a mountain peak about three hundred miles north of the previous cave.”

xu ye nodded and then asked lin jing,

“lin daoyou, your seclusion might last a long time, are you in need of spirit stones or not?”

lin jing gently shook his head and said,

“while dealing with those people from the puppet guild, i obtained quite a number of spirit stones. these spirit stones are enough for me to cultivate to the golden core peak.”

xu ye nodded his head…

afterward, lin jing didn’t say anything more. instead, he bid farewell to xu ye and left, heading back to his own cave dwelling.

upon returning to the cave dwelling, lin jing set up defenses at the entrance and then directly entered the system space.

……

not long after lin jing began his cultivation, the death of the puppet guild leader created a massive stir.

although lin jing had used the five elements divine art to disintegrate the bodies,

in the devouring spirit blood realm, even those who had died could come back to life as walking corpses.

and as the puppet guild leader and the other seventeen cultivators of the puppet guild all transformed into walking corpses, they marched mightily toward the sea of blood beach.

on normal days, the puppet guild leader was always seen in a grey robe, and no one had ever seen his true face.

but this time, all eighteen on the mission had become walking corpses without exception, and therefore the puppet guild cultivators were naturally able to identify their leader amongst them.

from then on, the news of the puppet guild leader’s death spread.

when the news was known, everyone was shocked beyond measure.

just how powerful was the puppet guild? probably no one was unclear about it…
