Ch 319: Taking Advantage
Meanwhile, Lin Feng was still frantically carrying Spirit Stones. Seeing this scene, he secretly cried foul. Sure enough, the Purple Dragon Beast roared and charged towards Lin Feng.
Looking at the charging Purple Dragon Beast, Lin Feng finally felt its power. Peak S-rank; no wonder the two S-rank young men weren’t a match for it, even when working together.
“Over a thousand pieces, that’s enough!” Lin Feng silently counted. He had already picked up over a thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones and couldn’t be greedy anymore.
Seeing the charging Purple Dragon Beast, Lin Feng felt a bad omen and without hesitation, punched out.
Bang! With a loud sound, the Purple Dragon Beast stood motionless on the spot, only its forward movement stopping.
On the other hand, Lin Feng was directly sent flying backwards, crashing into the stone wall behind him. He felt his lower back aching, and his hand bones felt like they were about to shatter.
“Too… too strong, this Purple Dragon Beast!” Lin Feng landed, secretly startled, deeply feeling he was no match for it.
After landing, Lin Feng knew that the Purple Dragon Beast was too strong, and he was no match for it, so he turned and left.
But just as he started, he was grabbed by two hands—the two young men.
“Don’t go, save us!” the young man in ordinary clothes said.
“Yes, you took so many Spirit Stones, you can’t leave without saving us!” the young man in black clothes also said.
Lin Feng’s feet were grabbed by the two young men, and for a moment he couldn’t move. Meanwhile, the Purple Dragon Beast was charging towards him.
“Let go!”
Lin Feng’s whole body vibrated with Spiritual Energy, instantly shaking the two young men off. However, at this moment, the Purple Dragon Beast charged up, its sharp Giant Claw fiercely swiping down at Lin Feng.
“Spirit Tool, Shattering Blade!” Lin Feng hastily took out a Spirit Tool from his Spatial Ring. It was a Mid-Grade Spirit Tool Broadsword, long and thick, extremely heavy, emitting a faint yellow glow.
“Cut!”
Looking at the descending Giant Claw, Lin Feng fiercely swung the Broadsword, directly slashing upwards.
The Broadsword collided with the Giant Claw, instantly releasing a powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation. The Broadsword showed a huge gap, directly knocking Lin Feng away, while the Purple Dragon Beast was also bounced back a few steps.
Seeing this, Lin Feng felt a pang of heartache, knowing that defeating the Purple Dragon Beast was still difficult. Therefore, after landing, he quickly ran towards the Cave Entrance without a moment’s hesitation.
Seeing Lin Feng run away, the Purple Dragon Beast didn’t immediately chase after him. Instead, it turned its head to look at the two men lying on the ground and pounced on them.
Outside the cave, Lin Feng had just escaped when he heard two screams from inside. Lin Feng didn’t need to guess what happened to those two.
Earlier, Lin Feng wasn’t completely without a chance to defeat the Purple Dragon Beast. The main issue was that inside that cave, the Spiritual Energy was too dense. The Purple Dragon Beast could absorb the vast Spiritual Energy in the cave, making it practically immortal. He just didn’t want to waste his Stamina and Spiritual Energy.
Lin Feng had just rushed to the Cave Entrance when he saw both groups of people had stopped fighting and were heading into the cave.
But at this moment, Lin Feng had just come out, and his Broadsword fiercely slashed out, instantly sending many people flying.
Then Lin Feng ran out of the cave. Behind him, a group of people were puzzled; how did someone suddenly fly out of the cave?
And where was their Leader? As they were wondering, the cave suddenly shook, as if something was about to burst out.
“Go!” Lin Feng came to the three people and shouted.
They didn’t understand what was happening and were stunned for a moment. However, in that moment, they saw a purple Item rush out of the Cave Entrance, directly knocking all the people at the entrance away, followed by cries of agony.
Seeing this, they understood immediately. They didn’t care about anything else; escaping was the most important thing.
Because some people were delayed for a while, Lin Feng and the others were able to escape. After running for half an hour, everyone stopped, panting heavily.
“Crazy man, what did you encounter inside?” Du Gang asked while panting.
The other two men also leaned in, seeming to want to hear what treasures Lin Feng had obtained inside.
“There were two S-rank Ability Users fighting a purple Spiritual Beast inside—the one you saw just now. It was incredibly powerful. The two men were defeated and died, so I escaped,” Lin Feng said.
“Were there any treasures inside?” Zhou Yi asked.
“Yes, many Spirit Stones, but they were guarded by the Spiritual Beast, so I couldn’t get them! Also, inside the cave, the Spiritual Beast could absorb the Spiritual Energy inside endlessly to fight; it was practically unkillable!” Lin Feng said, partly true, partly false.
Hearing that there were Spirit Stones inside, everyone was moved, but upon hearing that the Spiritual Beast could absorb the Spiritual Energy inside to fight and that two S-rank strong cultivators had died, they immediately gave up the idea of going in.
Actually, Lin Feng didn’t tell them what kind of Spirit Stones were inside. If he had told them they were High-Grade Spirit Stones, these people would have gone in even if they knew they would die.
Lin Feng didn’t tell them that he had obtained High-Grade Spirit Stones, because once they knew, trouble might come.
After all, Lin Feng wasn’t familiar with these two people. Who knew if these two guys had ulterior motives? If he told them, they might stab him in the back at a crucial moment.
“Where are we going now?” Zhou Yi asked.
“Anywhere is fine, but let’s continue westward. I found that the denser the Spiritual Energy, the more we head this way,” Lin Feng said calmly.
“But before that, let’s rest and adjust our State,” Lin Feng said, sitting cross-legged on the ground and starting to recover his Spiritual Energy.
While fighting the Purple Dragon Beast in the cave, Lin Feng had consumed some Spiritual Energy, and the running had further depleted it.
Therefore, Lin Feng needed to adjust to his best State before setting off. That way, if he encountered anything on the road, he could better face it.
After another half hour, Lin Feng and the others continued to move forward. However, as they went, the sky gradually darkened, and night was approaching.
“The sky is getting dark, we must find a safe place to spend the night!” Lin Feng looked at the sky and said.
“Good, let’s see if there are any caves nearby,” Zhou Yi also said after looking around.
Then Lin Feng and the others searched for caves nearby. They walked and walked until night fell without finding a cave.
By now, the sky had completely darkened, and the stars in the sky had peeked out, twinkling as if they wanted to illuminate the entire night.
Just as Lin Feng and the others were anxiously searching for a cave, they suddenly heard a roaring gust of wind, making a rustling sound, giving them a hair-raising feeling.
“Something seems to be approaching us, get ready for battle!” Lin Feng’s Perception was the most sensitive among the four. He immediately felt something was wrong and spoke.
“Here they come, it seems like it’s from all directions!” Du Gang also sensed it at this time.
Then, before the four of them, pairs of eyes emitting cold light gradually appeared, looking especially conspicuous in the night with their starlight.
“Awooo!” Suddenly, a howl rang out, and then a scene that shocked and frightened Lin Feng and the others appeared.
What was originally only a few pairs of eyes instantly became a dozen, then two dozen pairs.
“This is a Ghost Wolf Pack…”
