…
Without a glance at the corpses scattered on the ground, Pei Jinye turned to look at the Lu Family youths who remained nearby.
They were all taken aback with fright.
But Pei Jinye paid them no heed and walked straight into the courtyard, heading toward the back mountain.
He had his sights set on the Lu Family’s core talent!
Previously, by devouring one of the Lu Family members, he had been informed of the Lu Family’s current situation as clear as day.
Ever since the fall from power five years ago, the Lu Family had sold off almost all of its painstakingly cultivated planting bases to barely tide over the crisis.
In the strictest sense, the Lu Family had made a name for themselves with their planting talent, but currently, only two people had awakened to planting-based Transcendent abilities.
Originally, there were three, but one had already died at the hands of Guo Feiyu earlier, no wonder the Lu Family hated him to the bone.
One of them was the Lu Family’s old ancestor who had just passed away the previous night.
The other was the brother of Lu Qingshan… Lu Qingju.
Regrettably, the Lu Family’s heritage had already experienced interruptions in its transmission twenty years ago, resulting in their reputation growing weaker and weaker.
Five years ago, they suffered successive losses of several family elites and since then were in complete decline.
They were guarding their only Spirit Field in this remote corner.
…
Lu Qingju gazed at the young woman before him with a surge of heat in his heart. He had only heard a loud crash from the front courtyard and had not had time to think before he was distracted by the young woman who had fallen into his arms due to being overly startled.
He had just touched her when suddenly the door was kicked open from the outside.
Both Lu Qingju and the affectionate young woman in his arms were startled by this.
“Who are you!” As soon as Lu Qingju saw a stranger, he immediately pointed and cursed.
But before he could finish his sentence, a sword light cleaved off one of his arms.
Blood sprayed the woman’s face.
She stood frozen for a moment and then let out a piercing scream.
But the next moment, the sword light cut across her throat, silencing her scream completely.
“You!!!”
Lu Qingju’s face was filled with horror as he cried out for help.
However, all around was dead silence…
Only the crisp sound of Pei Jinye stepping forward, showing no mercy as he pressed on his face.
“Into the dream.”
In an instant.
Endless darkness devoured Lu Qingju, who with a mere 30 in spiritual power, had no ability to resist in front of Pei Jinye.
…
[New Extraordinary Gene: Element·Wood (Can be merged with Elemental Heart)]
[New Extraordinary Ability: Spirit Grass (Ordinary grass evolved into Spirit Grass through planting, consuming Spirit Grass effectively supplements Vitality and Physical Strength)]
[New Skill 1: Planting Technique (Beginner 10%) (Will effectively aid cultivators in rapid planting)]
[New Skill 2: Spirit Gathering Technique (Beginner 1%) (Can gather Spiritual Objects to some extent, receiving feedback in physique and spiritual power)]
…
Pei Jinye’s mind filled with numerous pieces of information related to planting.
Without hesitation, he took out a Blood Spirit Fruit from his personal inventory and devoured it heartily.
Finally, he downed a vial of Blue Potion in one go, dissolving all his worries.
He slid open his attribute panel.
[Vitality Value: 49-60.4](+1+1+1…)
[Physical Strength: 48-60.3](+1+1+1…)
[Spiritual Power: 51-60.3](+1+1+1…)
The upper limit of the three attribute values increased one by one in this battle.
Based on his usual experience.
The devouring of three Transcendent beings would usually reduce his three attribute values to below 40.
Thanks to the [Talisman Bead].
He saved 10 points in attributes.
This allowed Pei Jinye to see the potential of this Sealing Object.
If he directly prayed for high-frequency blessings during a battle, would it mean practically no consumption… Although this was just a hypothesis, Pei Jinye still considered converting the Universal Extraordinary Gene Fragments into a Forging Master’s ability.
“Concerning the consumption of Technique… it can also be managed by refining small details in execution, or the application of Technique, which can save the consumption of the three values.”
Suddenly, Pei Jinye’s gaze sharpened.
In the distance!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The entire region was shaking.
It was as if countless Earth Dragons were turning over all at once!
In the blink of an eye.
Every obstacle from the front courtyard to the path in front of Pei Jinye’s door crumbled at that moment.
The sky filled with dust that swirled like a Wind Dragon, and amidst the earth-shattering tremors, a ferocious and malevolent Earth Dragon tore through the tumultuous winds, roaring as it approached.
And atop the dragon’s head stood a figure rushing forward.
He suddenly stopped in front of Pei Jinye.
It was a young man with a long whip standing in mid-air.
When he saw the body of Lu Qingju, his expression became incredibly ugly.
“You killed him.”
Pei Jinye recognized him at a glance.
Head of Western Fire League Red Sword Hall—
Tuoba Zhenglian!
If it weren’t for Pei Jinye having devoured people from the Western Fire League before, he might not have recognized the powerhouse standing on the Earth Dragon’s head.
What surprised him even more was—
The Lu Family actually had ties with the Western Fire League.
And Lu Qingju himself was unaware of it.
Almost at the same moment when their gazes met amidst the sounds of wind, sword cries, and the Earth Dragon’s heaven-shaking roar, Pei Jinye’s figure, carrying the rolling thunder, charged with sixfold strength and fell into a fearsome strike.
“How dare you!” Tuoba Zhenglian bellowed angrily.
Using some Technique, his muscles suddenly swelled and contracted, erupting in tangible white whirls of energy that pulsated with a unique rhythm, causing the surrounding air to emit piercing booms.
But all of a sudden!
The moment he made contact with Pei Jinye’s force, his eyes shrank sharply!
He had underestimated the strength of the person before him.
“Chi-la!”
The sword light extinguished the Earth Dragon summoned by Tuoba Zhenglian.
Immediately afterward, the air currents surrounding him were completely disrupted under the evolved Sword Intent of Pei Jinye.
“Bang!”
Tuoba Zhenglian’s body exploded in an instant.
It was like a balloon being popped, disintegrating directly mid-air.
But what was strange was that what spewed out in all directions was not blood but thousands of fist-sized grains of sand and soil.
“You think you can kill me?”
In the blink of an eye, the soil on the ground swiftly reassembled, with a head forming first, Tuoba Zhenglian’s face carried a hint of maliciousness.
Just a moment, and his entire body reformed, clothed in an armor of sandy color, perfectly protecting his vital areas.
“Lu Qingju is of great use to me, I’ve nurtured him in secret for so many years… yet before I could reap the benefits, you killed him…”
Tuoba Zhenglian’s voice sounded like gravel rolling.
“However, state your name. You’ve earned the right for me to know who you are…”
“Zing!”
Sword Intent surged, cutting off Tuoba Zhenglian’s words.
Pei Jinye, ferocious as ever, couldn’t be bothered to listen to any more of his nonsense.
Despite the opponent’s spiritual power of 60, the sword in his hand decisively slashed forward.
Under the dim sky, it was like a bright, blinding thunderbolt out of nowhere, dazzling Tuoba Zhenglian so much it was like a streak of white light flashed before his eyes.
At the same time.
A myriad of roaring sounds filled with wind and thunder filled Tuoba Zhenglian’s ears; almost instantly, the shattered space seemed split in two by an aurora.
“Condense!”
A single word boomed from Tuoba Zhenglian’s mouth.
As if spitting out purple lightning.
The air in front of him vibrated so intensely it wouldn’t stop shaking.
Endless Earth Elements surged like boundless ocean waves, filling the space between him and Pei Jinye.
This head of the Western Fire League, who had stepped onto the path of Martial Arts using the Earth Element, was, in fact, extremely wary of Pei Jinye’s identity in his heart.
Sword… again the sword…
As a division head of the Western Fire League, he was of course aware of the major events that happened within the organization recently.
A new Godson of the Old Gods Association had extraordinary swordsmanship, challenging their sub-divisions of the Western Fire League.
If not for the fact that the swordsmanship displayed by Pei Jinye was vastly different from that of the New Godson of the Old Gods Association, he might have really thought the people of the Old Gods Association had come to kill again!
But now, after an exchange, he was surprised.
How could this man, appearing to be just over thirty years old, possess such immense strength?
And, oddly, his blood energy was also incredibly vigorous.
In the sea of Earth Elements he summoned, he could clearly sense that the blood energy hidden beneath Pei Jinye’s seemingly not-so-strong physique was more tumultuous and mighty than an angry sea.
[Dammit, who the hell is this guy!]
Amidst his roar.
Pei Jinye’s figure descended like a comet, while the surrounding earth and flames erupted like an explosion.
Pei Jinye and Tuoba Zhenglian were three meters apart, their space violently exploding with Gang Wind.
Tuoba Zhenglian’s face was constantly torn and blown away by the Gang Wind, turning into countless grains of sand… but the smile at the corner of his mouth was particularly sinister.
“You’re nothing special.”
He took a furious step forward.
The Gang Wind exploded violently again, and a punch with a momentum heavy as a mountain thundered towards Pei Jinye’s face, which he found loathsome.
At that moment, the air felt compressed and tense, as if it had been sucked out, making it hard to breathe.
This was an immensely vast fist intent, bearing a mood that seemed to sweep all creation, pressing down ferociously.
Beneath the raging winds, the Martial Arts will erupting from Tuoba Zhenglian was a hundred times more ferocious than any member of the Lu Family.
However—
“Ceng!”
The sword cry unleashed the sword body’s limit.
At this moment.
Pei Jinye felt his three Attribute Points return to their peak after the full revival, and without any reservations, he unleashed them all fully!
The last two blessings that remained… he did not hesitate to use one!
At the same time—
Space Lock!
Tuoba Zhenglian’s expression changed slightly.
“You have Sealing Objects?”
The next second.
The earth and flames that were engulfed in the raging waves were suddenly frozen by countless frost, numerous spinning Ice Cones engulfed from all sides.
A terrifying shadow covered the skies, carrying an invincible dominating will.
Tuoba Zhenglian’s eyes widened.
“Another Sealing Object?”
Abyssal Blast Unleashed! Chaos of Ravens!
Tuoba Zhenglian’s approaching figure slowed dramatically, his consciousness attacked by confusion, his spiritual power rapidly declining… his face changed color again!
“How many damn Sealing Objects did you bring?”
However—
Returning him was Pei Jinye’s ferocious sword, blazing with flames, as if a splendid light reached its climax, instantly covering everything.
…
Suddenly.
A hand was placed on Tuoba Zhenglian’s face.
A casually spoken phrase fell like thunder…
“You said, who is ignorant of power?”
“Enter dream.”
The last two words, decisively oppressive!
Endless darkness immediately devoured Tuoba Zhenglian’s consciousness.
Meanwhile, a deluge of memories came flooding in.
…
Under the control of Pei Jinye’s now 120 spiritual power, all the Earth Elements around him…
The next second, the huge bodies of three Giant Dragons coalesced amidst the earth-shattering thunder and lightning.
Three dragons ascended to the heavens, serving one master!
Pei Jinye changed his identity and turned to attack the Western Fire League Red Sword Hall.
