Chapter 97 - Escape From Death (1/2)
9 Comments
The three forged stones were about to disintegrate into ashes. When his soul force was about to be exhausted, Lin Xuanzhi casually picked up a Gathering Qi pill that he had placed by his side and threw it into his mouth, then quickly threw the three forged stones that had been used up away and tossed three new top-grade forged stones into the air to replace them.
His soul force was restored in an instant.

When Soul Bead saw this, he couldn’t help but shake his head.
Even though a Gathering Qi pill can replenish a craftsman’s soul force in a very short period of time, its after effects can be seen immediately.
“Kid, that’s the third Gathering Qi pill you’ve consumed. In the future, your cultivation may advance by one realm, but this kind of ‘helping the shoots grow by pulling them upward’ advancement will definitely cause your foundation to be unstable. The road ahead of you willbecome even more bumpy.”
Soul Bead said sincerely and earnestly as he watched on anxiously.

It wasn’t easy for him to see someone who had such unlimited prospects in the crafting path, so he deliberately reminded him. But he didn’t expect him to destroy his own future like this!
Yet Lin Xuanzhi didn’t seem to mind it too much. What should be, shall be, so he didn’t say anything more and only concentrated all his attention on crafting the All-encompassing bottle.
At night, Yan Tianhen ran to Mass Graves Ridge again. This time, he didn’t wait until the Zi period was over, but ran over to Mass Graves Ridge the moment the sky turned dark.
There were a few more fresh corpses in Mass Graves Ridge, but Yan Tianhen realised that most of these corpses belonged to mortals. Cultivator corpses were rare, and even if there was a cultivator, their corpses would have broken limbs or lack an arm or leg. At his present level, he had no way of repairing those corpses.
Yan Tianhen returned once again in disappointment.
On the night of the third day.
Yan Tianhen retracted his hand seals. He lied down in the midst of the comfortable Yin quality spiritual Qi and stretched lazily. He first stood outside Lin Xuanzhi’s door and observed it for a moment before he brought Ah Bai and Hu Po along as he rode the Chasing Sun horse to Mass Graves Ridge. New corpses were sent to Mass Graves Ridge everyday, but it’s a pity that Yan Tianhen still could not find a suitable corpse that night.

“Ai, looks like this Imperial Corpse path isn’t that easy to walk on either.” Yan Tianhen sighed. He was about to leave when he heard Ah Bai and Hu Po suppress their voices simultaneously as they cried out with their guards up.
Through the contract he had with Ah Bai, he immediately understood that these two amethyst tiger cubs had sensed danger approaching, so they were warning him.
Yan Tianhen immediately jumped into a huge neighbouring tree with dense foliage to hide.

In just a moment, three cultivators adorned in purple robes appeared in Mass Graves Ridge.
They had a strong smell of blood on them, and one of them was carrying something that looked like a corpse on his shoulder.
That person might be dead, or might have just fainted.
Yan Tianhen held his breath so as not to let them discover his presence too easily.

The cultivator who was carrying the body threw the unmoving man from his shoulders into Mass Graves Ridge like he was getting rid of trash.
Under the pale moonlight, Yan Tianhen could clearly see the man’s face. It was ghastly pale, bloodless and slightly bluish — he looked just like a fierce ghost. If it wasn’t because Yan Tianhen naturally lacked an emotion called “fear”, he would have been shrieking in horror by now.
He…should be dead ba, Yan Tianhen’s heart was thumping.
“Are you sure that this is the last Ling person who got away?”
“He should be. I didn’t expect him to be able to run this far — he actually ran all the way from Purple Emperor’s Heavenly Capital to this small mud ball of a city. Ling Chigu is also quite a character; people in the Ling family are such loyal people, but it’s too bad that they didn’t support the right person.Since they stood on the wrong team and bungled the golden opportunity of the one above, they deserved to die.”
“Tear the weeds out by its roots, Ling Chigu is thoroughly dead; there’s no possibility of revival for him.”
“Now, the crown prince will probably be able to rest easy.”

“Our task here has been accomplished. I’ve had enough of this place with such sparse spiritual energy!”
Even though the dialogue between the three men had been brief, it had disclosed a lot of information.
Unfortunately, Yan Tianhen couldn’t understand them.

Yan Tianhen watched the three men prepare to leave.As he was about to heave a sigh of relief, he was suddenly pulled down from from the tree by a tremendous force!
“Aiyo!” Yan Tianhen fell flop on his face and landed on the ground in a wretched state.
“He, there was actually a sparrow who was eavesdropping in a corner. Third Bro, I’ll leave him for you to kill.” The cultivator who had carried the corpse before casually swept a glance across Yan Tianhen’s face and decided on his death for him.
Yan Tianhen quickly crawled up and begged without regard for his image, “All you Dao masters, I don’t know anything! I just came here to take a quick look to see if there were any valuable items on these corpses. I promise I won’t say anything!”

One of the cultivators saw Yan Tianhen’s face clearly and immediately revealed a disgusted expression, “You look so ugly, I’ve never seen anyone uglier than you.”
Yan Tianhen really wished that he could look even uglier right now. He whispered with a trembling voice, “It’s, it’s because I look this ugly that when I was born, my dad didn’t want me and my mum didn’t want me, and even my family’s dog didn’t want me. No one wants me to work for them either, if…if it wasn’t because I wanted to fill my stomach, why would I come to this kind of place? Oh yes, one of my legs is crippled too — because I fought with a wild dog for food before and I got bitten by that wild dog!”
As he spoke, Yan Tianhen began to wail wuwuwuwus loudly and looked extremely miserable.
When the three cultivators saw this, they didn’t sympathise with him, but they didn’t doubt his words either.
One of the cultivators swept a cold gaze over Yan Tianhen and sensed that there wasn’t a lot of Qi in his body, so he said, “You’re but a mere Refining Qi Stage fourth layer cultivator. No matter how down and out the Ling family gets, they would never mix with this kind of trash.”
Yan Tianhen looked at him with a bewildered face as snot dripped down from both his nostrils.
