Martial Universe

Liu Tao’s group gazed at the young man who had appeared in the sky. Theirexpressions changed a little when they felt the cruel aura that surged from thelatter’s body. Their hearts were already a little uncertain despite daring toattack Ying Xiaoxiao. After all, Dao Sect was one of the eight super sects ofEastern Xuan Region. For them, it was undoubtedly a true titan. Althoughsomeone with nothing to lose would emerge victorious in a fight, if Dao Sectwas angered, their fury was clearly not something that they could endure.

Therefore, they did not dare to have any thoughts of killing the other partyand snatching the treasure since the beginning. At the very most, they wouldattempt to make these young Dao Sect disciples afraid of them under theencouragement of their greed. Through this, they would end up gaining something.

However, they did not expect that these seemingly young and naive Dao Sectdisciples to be so ferocious. Each one that appeared was more ferocious thanthe previous. Earlier, Ying Xiaoxiao’s group had at least properly talked tothem. However, the fellow who had just appeared, had directly tossed out suchunreasonable words…

“Brat, aren’t you too arrogant?”

Liu Tao coldly laughed. They were rather much older than Lin Dong’s group andhad gained some reputation over the years. However, Lin Dong act of throwingsuch ruthless words towards them at this moment caused a fury to appear intheir hearts.

However, Lin Dong completely ignored their cold laughter. After ten breaths,he finally slowly raised his eyes, which contained a surging murderous intentand said, “Ten breaths’ time is up.”

A black light flashed and appeared behind Lin Dong the moment his voicesounded out. Finally, it transformed into a demon corpse and stood behind him.

“Demon corpse?”

Many exclamations were heard when this demon corpse appeared. Even YingXiaoxiao, Wang Yan and the rest had shocked faces as they stared at the blackfigure behind Lin Dong. After which, they involuntarily looked towards thedemon corpse that was trapped within the light array as they started to breatha little more deeply. They were truly unable to imagine that Lin Dong had notonly dealt with the demon corpse that was chasing them, but had even takencontrol of it…

Liu Tao’s group looked at the demon corpse behind Lin Dong with shocked eyes.They immediately inhaled a breath of cold air. Everyone could not help but taketwo steps back.

“Ha ha, brother, please do not be anxious. We are only passing by…” Theexpressions of Liu Tao’s group had transformed in an instant. They exchangedlooks with each other before they hurriedly cried out in embarrassment. Theirbodies carefully pulled back while they cursed quietly in their hearts. Couldit be that the current younger generation of these super sects was already thisfrightening?

“Get lost.”

Lin Dong gazed at the fellows whose expressions had changed. He did not havethe mood to tangle with them. Immediately, his eyes turned cold as he snappedchillingly.

After hearing this snarl from Lin Dong, Liu Tao’s group no longer dared to befurious in their hearts. They hurriedly nodded and led their subordinates toturn around and flee. They were not fools. Given this situation, they couldforget about getting a share of the reward. Moreover, if they angered such amonster, it was likely that their group would suffer serious injuries anddeaths.

Ying Xiaoxiao and the rest watched as the group, that had previously pesteredthem endlessly, flee dejectedly at this moment. All of them involuntarily feltsomewhat helpless. It was likely that they were speechless in the face of suchcharacters.

“Are you alright?” Lin Dong turned around after frightening away thosefellows. The icy cold cruel aura on his face slowly disappeared. He smiled atYing Xiaoxiao’s group and asked.

“We’re fine. It is just that we were a little unlucky. One would normally notmeet such irksome fellows. However, they were quite strong. Four nine YuanNirvana stage.” Ying Xiaoxiao spoke somewhat helplessly.

“They are all some old and experienced fellows in Eastern Xuan Region. It isnot surprising for them to possess such strength.” Lin Dong smilingly said.After all, those four from earlier were all middle-aged. After having trainedfor so many years, it would not be overly strange for them to possess such astrength.

“Lin Dong, this demon corpse of yours… you have refined it into a puppet?”Wang Yan’s eyes were surprised and could not help but ask as he watched thedemon corpse that was following closely behind Lin Dong.

“I have used my Yuan Spirit to control it.” Lin Dong smiled and said.

Ying Xiaoxiao’s and Wang Yan’s expressions changed slightly when they heardthese words. It was likely that they clearly understood the risk of such amethod. However, when they saw Lin Dong’s unworried appearance, they knew thatthe latter likely possessed his own means to avoid this kind of danger…

“Big sis, have you not finished off this demon corpse yet?” Ying Huanhuan alsocame forward. She looked at the demon corpse striking wildly within the lightformation as she said.

“Yes, the defence of this fellow is too frightening. We are able to trap itbut we cannot finish it off.” Ying Xiaoxiao laughed bitterly.

“Remove the formation. I will deal with it.” Lin Dong smiled and said. Withhis experience from earlier, he was clearly aware of how to deal with thisdemon corpse that had extremely powerful defences.

Upon hearing this, Ying Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment before nodding. SinceLin Dong was able to finish off one demon corpse, it was likely that it wouldnot be too difficult for him to deal with a second one. Immediately, she wavedher hand and the Dao Sect disciples in the air swiftly withdrew their YuanPower, scattering the light array that trapped the demon corpse.

Roar!

The scarlet colour within the eyes of the demon corpse soared when the lightformation was scattered. Its body moved and transformed into a black light thatcharged towards the Dao Sect disciples around it.

Bang!

However, its body had just charged forward when the demon corpse standingbehind Lin Dong also rushed out. The latter was just like a cannonball as itruthlessly struck the former’s body. Immediately, the two directly landed onthe ground, smashing the surface and causing an enormous pit to be formed.

Two demon corpses frantically tumbled on the ground. Numerous cracks wereformed on the ground wherever they tumbled past. Such frightening strengthcaused quite a number of Dao Sect disciples to be quietly speechless.

Lin Dong lowered his head and watched the demon corpses that had tangledtogether. He curled his hand and a light formation appeared. In the nextinstant, his body suddenly rushed downwards and directly appeared in front ofthat demon corpse. After which, he curled his hand and his palm directlyslammed onto the Dantian at the demon corpse’s abdomen.

Sizzle sizzle!

The black colour on the dry skin of the demon corpse that possessed a powerfuldefensive strength swiftly disappeared at this moment. With a push of his palm,the strong defence that caused Ying Xiaoxiao and the rest to feel helplessagainst was once again penetrated by Lin Dong. His palm immediately closed andthe white light cluster at the demon corpse’s Dantain was grabbed and pulledout.

“Done!?”

Ying Xiaoxiao, Wang Yan and all the Dao Sect disciples in the air were stunnedas they watched this scene. After which, they turned to face each other. Theywere completely quiet at that moment. It was really impossible for them toimagine that the demon corpse, which did not show any reaction regardless ofthe violent strikes they threw at it, would actually be dealt with by Lin Dongin such a simple manner…

“You…”

Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan had stunned faces as their bodies graduallydescended. They looked at the white light cluster in Lin Dong’s hand for awhile. Soon after, they looked at his hand, which had formed a light arrayearlier, and fell into a deep thought. It seemed that Lin Dong had used somesort of technique to break the frightening defence of the demon corpse. Havinglost that defence, the demon corpse would appear to be no different from a crabthat had lost its shell. Its fighting strength would be reduced…

“Senior sister Xiaoxiao and senior brother Wang Yan have both stepped into thepeak of the nine Yuan Nirvana stage. This Mysterious Life Bone Bead has agreater effect for the both of you.” Lin Dong tossed the white light cluster inhis hand towards Ying Xiaoxiao. After which, he threw the Mysterious Life BoneBead that he had obtained earlier towards Wang Yan.

Although this Mysterious Life Bone Bead also had some use to Lin Dong, itwould not be as effective for him compared to being consumed by the YingXiaoxiao duo. If these two had enough luck, they might even be able to touchthe door towards the Mysterious Life Stage. In this way, their fightingstrength would undoubtedly soar. This would be quite a great help when theysubsequently met the members of Yuan Gate.

Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan received the Mysterious Life Bone Beads. They weremomentarily startled before they hesitated and said, “You have the greatestcredit in subduing the demon corpse. I don’t need it…”

“I’m good with receiving this thing.” Lin Dong patted the second demon corpsethat had been subdued. Although his Yuan Spirit was only able to control onedemon corpse, leaving another one as spare was not a bad thing.

Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan only nodded when they saw Lin Dong’s insist. Theyflipped their hands and kept the Mysterious Life Bone Beads.

“Senior sister Xiaoxiao, it seems that the copper cauldron that I have boughtfrom Unique Devil City a couple of days ago contains an ancient treasure map.Can you identify which part of Unique Devil Region it is located at?” A thoughtsubsequently crossed his mind when Lin Dong kept that demon corpse into hisQiankun Bag. His Mental Energy surged out and formed a map in front of him.

“Ancient treasure map?”

Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan were momentarily startled. Their eyes swiftlygathered towards the light map. However, a stunned expression quickly surfacedon their faces.

“Junior brother Lin Dong, this ancient treasure map… could it be the BurningSky Ancient Stash?” Ying Xiaoxiao asked.

“Oh?” This time around, it was Lin Dong’s turned to be startled. He had noteven said the name of this ancient treasure. How could Ying Xiaoxiao know aboutit?

“Does senior sister Xiaoxiao know about this Burning Sky Ancient Stash?” Anominous feeling surged out from Lin Dong’s heart. Originally, he thought thatno one knew about this thing. How could…

“There are quite a number of ancient stashes within Unique Devil Region. ThisBurning Sky Ancient Stash is an extremely renown one. As for this map of yours,it is likely that it does not possess much value. This is because many peopleknow the location of the Burning Sky Ancient Stash…”

Lin Dong’s expression immediately turned a little ugly when he heard YingXiaoxiao’s words. The thing that he thought of as a treasure was actually trash?

“However, everyone might know its location, but no one has been able tosuccessfully open the Burning Sky Ancient Stash till this day. Additionally,Yuan Gate has also targeted this Burning Sky Ancient Stash for many years. Theywill definitely head there this time around. To still decide to head there evenafter failing so many times, it is possible that they already possess someconfidence in opening it…”

“Open the Burning Sky Ancient Stash?”

Lin Dong frowned deeply. His heart pounded as he suddenly recalled themysterious light token that had been melted from the copper cauldron…
