The small tree was twisted like a coiling Dragon, its entire body crimson like blood, about five feet tall, with a fist-sized fruit at its top, also crimson like jade, but about one-tenth of the area was green, indicating it wasn't fully ripe yet.
“It seems these beasts’ objective is this fruit,” Lin Baichuan muttered to himself, “but what kind of fruit is this, to attract so many Yao Beasts to covet it? Could it be some Heaven And Earth Treasure?”
As he spoke, Lin Baichuan's eyes immediately shone with a fiery glow.
Any Heaven And Earth Treasure was immeasurable, just like his Earth Core Spiritual Milk, which was a type of Heaven And Earth Treasure, and its value was terrifying.
For a moment, many thoughts surfaced in Lin Baichuan’s mind, and his gaze was fixed on the fruit on the blood-red tree, which was twisted like a coiling Dragon.
He subconsciously swallowed, then his eyes narrowed, focusing on the eleven Yao Beasts.
The fruit wasn't going anywhere, and it wasn't ripe yet, so it was the perfect time to eliminate those eleven Yao Beasts and reap some Karma.
After making his decision, Lin Baichuan wasted no time, stepping on Wind Shadow Step and charging straight into the mountain hollow.
He didn't plan to call for support, as no one knew when the fruit would ripen.
Of course, the most important point was that he didn’t want to call for support because he was confident he could handle it alone.
The strongest of the eleven Yao Beasts was only a Grade 4 soldier-level, equivalent to a Human Race Martial Artist in the Sixth Grade Blood Refining Realm.
And judging by their aura, they were only in the Early Stage of Grade 4 soldier-level, so Lin Baichuan was confident that his own strength was enough to deal with them.
Roar, roar…
As he charged into the mountain hollow, he immediately attracted the attention of the eleven Yao Beasts within.
The black tiger suddenly roared skyward, startling all the wild beasts in the hollow, who all turned to look at Lin Baichuan.
Their crimson, bloodshot eyes radiated a bloodthirsty killing intent.
The next moment, hundreds of wild beasts moved simultaneously, forming a formation and charging directly at Lin Baichuan.
“Damn it, these guys have really become refined; they even know battle formations,” Lin Baichuan muttered softly upon seeing this.
His battle blade was already unsheathed, and he moved with Wind Shadow Step, like a gentle breeze, crossing hundreds of feet and charging into the midst of the wild beasts.
His battle blade flashed like a cold light, slashing out.
Puff, puff, puff…
With a flash of the blade, more than a dozen streaks of blood shot into the sky.
Under Lin Baichuan’s single strike, like cutting tofu, he dismembered more than a dozen wild beasts tainted with Evil Qi, and as blood flowed, Evil Qi permeated the sky.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have gained 1 Karma.”
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have gained 1 Karma.”
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have gained 1 Karma.”
…
Just then, a series of System prompts sounded in his Sea of Consciousness, and a broad smile immediately appeared on Lin Baichuan’s face.
Indeed, his guess was correct.
As long as they were tainted with demonic Evil Qi, whether they were demons or not, they would yield at least one Karma.
There were thousands of wild beasts tainted with demonic Evil Qi here, which meant thousands of Karma in his eyes.
This was a huge fortune.
“Roar, roar…”
Lin Baichuan’s swift action, sharply slaying a dozen wild beasts, immediately ignited the fury of the other wild beasts.
Following a series of low growls, the remaining nearly hundred wild beasts suddenly radiated bloodthirsty light, charging directly at Lin Baichuan.
At the same time, two Yao Beasts actually charged out from the mountain hollow, leading hundreds of wild beasts, splitting into two formations, intending to devour Lin Baichuan alive.
It seemed these two Yao Beasts also knew that the hundred wild beasts alone couldn’t stop Lin Baichuan.
“Hmph, a bunch of beasts, no matter how many come, they will die…”
Lin Baichuan coldly snorted, looking at the charging Yao Beasts and wild beasts without fear.
He stepped on Wind Shadow Step, his battle blade cutting through them like slicing melons and vegetables, instantly tearing through the first wave of a hundred wild beasts.
Then, without any hesitation, he charged towards one of the Yao Beasts.
Clang!
The long blade flashed, instantly revealing murderous intent, and Evil Qi permeated the sky.
This was the Minor Achievement level Seven Kill Blade Technique, empowered by Lin Baichuan’s powerful Physical Body strength.
A single strike unleashed over a hundred thousand jin of force, making it difficult even for a Sixth Grade Blood Refining Realm Martial Artist to resist.
How could this Yao Beast, merely at the Peak of Grade 1 soldier-level, which was equivalent to a Human Race Martial Artist at the Peak of the Ninth Grade Body Refinement Realm, withstand Lin Baichuan’s enraged strike?
Puff!
With a crisp sound, Lin Baichuan’s battle blade, like cutting tofu, split the Yao Beast in two.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have gained 30 Karma.”
As the System prompt sounded, Lin Baichuan moved his foot, instantly sweeping past like a gentle breeze, and he appeared before another Yao Beast.
Following the same method, his long blade slashed out once more.
Seven Kill Blade Technique: Po Jun’s Fury!
A cold light flashed, the blade’s edge whistled, forcefully splitting the black bear Yao Beast in two, sending blood splattering.
“Kill!”
Lin Baichuan roared in anger, his killing intent surging like a tide.
As he brandished his battle blade, he immediately charged into the wild beast horde before him.
At this moment, he was like a fierce tiger descending the mountain; wherever he went, limbs and broken arms flew, and blood splattered.
In less than a hundred breaths, he had cut through a thousand wild beasts, leaving no survivors.
Boom… Crackle…
Suddenly, just as Lin Baichuan was excitedly celebrating his harvest of Karma, his mind tensed, and his expression drastically changed.
He saw a blur of motion bringing with it an astonishing storm, striking directly at him.
It was the giant python’s tail.
After seeing Lin Baichuan slaughter a thousand wild beasts, it finally couldn’t hold back its enraged attack.
As its tail swept over, it brought a fierce storm, whistling like a blade’s edge, accompanied by an astonishing sound of tearing air.
It likely carried at least a hundred thousand jin of force, enough to cleave metal and break iron.
As the air exploded, the tail, as thick as a water bucket, instantly whipped towards Lin Baichuan, reaching him in a flash.
Clang!
Lin Baichuan swept his battle blade, striking hard against the python’s tail.
Sparks flew as if metal clashed, and a powerful force erupted, instantly shaking Lin Baichuan back.
Roar, roar…
Just then, a tiger’s roar echoed.
After Lin Baichuan retreated more than a dozen steps, the Grade 4 soldier-level black tiger lunged, like a small mountain, directly at Lin Baichuan.
Its dark claws swiped, faintly stirring with Evil Qi, like metal blades, aiming for Lin Baichuan’s head.
Rip… Bang…
As a claw descended, the air itself seemed to explode.
If this strike landed solidly, even metal would be shattered.
In just a single moment, it was within three feet of Lin Baichuan’s head, the fierce wind assaulting him, its sharp edge fully revealed.
Lin Baichuan wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
He gritted his teeth and immediately activated the Golden Bell Shield technique, the vigorous Qi within his body surging straight towards his heavenly gate.
Dong!
Immediately, a golden light flashed on his body, and his skin emitted a faint golden glow, as if he had transformed into a bronze figure, enduring the black tiger’s claw head-on.
“Beast, die!”
Lin Baichuan immediately became enraged.
He raised his hand, thrusting his battle blade upward, fiercely stabbing towards the black tiger’s belly above him.
His Minor Achievement Blade Intent fully erupted at this moment.
