Chapter 195
🕑 Added 2024-06-12 04:00:01 +0000 UTC"Over there."
Lin Yuan's mind focused.
Ever since consciousness descended into this world,
Lin Yuan had encountered various kinds of demonic beasts and ferocious beasts.
As for others, there hadn't been much contact.
Mainly because of Lin Yuan's location, the Black Mist Mountain Range, which was a paradise for demonic beasts and ferocious beasts.
"Someone is coming?"
Lin Yuan's perception spread, detecting figures several miles away.
A pair of young men and women were walking towards this direction.
"Elder brother, choosing the Black Mist Mountain Range as our training ground, isn't it too risky?"
The young woman's gaze was alert as she spoke softly.
"Without entering the tiger's den, how can one get a tiger cub? Junior sister, now our sect has brought out many heritage legacies to resist the invasion of foreign gods."
"As long as we can pass through the training, we will gain great benefits and opportunities."
The young man continued, "Although the Black Mist Mountain Range is dangerous, the demonic beasts there are much easier to deal with than the puppets of the foreign gods. If we are afraid even of these demonic beasts, how will we deal with the foreign gods in the future?"
"Elder brother, what you said is really good."
At the young woman's words, a trace of admiration appeared in her eyes as she looked at the young man.
Several miles away.
Lin Yuan carefully observed the two young men and women.
Due to the language barrier, Lin Yuan didn't know what the other party was saying.
But through their expressions and actions, Lin Yuan inferred that these two young men and women should be from some force outside.
"Equivalent to the Second Rank, they should be disciples of a sect."
Lin Yuan speculated in his mind. In this side world, where time flowed at a rate of six hundred to one compared to the main world, it was absolutely not to be underestimated. The strongest might even reach the peak of the Seventh Rank.
Since discovering the two young men and women, Lin Yuan spent most of his time observing them.
As for taking action to capture them? Lin Yuan wouldn't do it without thoroughly understanding the cards of the two young men and women.
Who knows if these young men and women have any powerful seniors, killing them oneself will attract the attention of those seniors?
Lin Yuan observed the young men and women mainly to learn the language they spoke.
Under the Unrivaled Insight, no matter what Lin Yuan learned, reading or listening to it once was basically enough.
Learning a completely new language was effortless.
Just remember the pronunciation of the other party, as well as the tone and expression when mentioning it, and you could figure out most of it.
"Azure World?"
"Azure Grand Alliance?"
Half a month later, Lin Yuan gleaned much useful information from the two young men and women.
Firstly, this world was called the Azure World, and the most powerful force in this world was the Azure Grand Alliance.
The Azure Grand Alliance was a huge entity composed of countless forces in the Azure World, formed to resist the invasion of foreign gods.
"Indeed, the invasion of foreign gods has begun."
Lin Yuan pondered. Perhaps many years ago, the invasion of foreign gods had begun in this world, but it had never succeeded.
That's why the ancestor demon tree had scattered countless seeds into the Azure World, trying other ways to invade.
"The strength of the Alliance Master of the Azure Grand Alliance should have reached the Seventh Rank, and it's not an ordinary Seventh Rank."
Lin Yuan had heard admiration for the Alliance Master many times from the young man.
In these years of foreign god invasion, if it weren't for the Alliance Master's repeated efforts to control the situation, the situation would have been much worse than it is now. How could they leisurely enter the Black Mist Mountain Range for training?
"They are about to go back."
Lin Yuan looked 'towards' the two young men and women.
After hunting down several Second Rank demonic beasts, the two of them completed their training tasks and planned to return to their sect to claim rewards.
Lin Yuan didn't stop them because there was no need. The other party hadn't discovered him yet, and making a move would only expose his traces and weaknesses.
"Continue, continue."
Lin Yuan waited until the two young men and women had left completely before resuming the hunt for demonic beasts.
With a height of seven to eight meters, ordinary First and Second Rank demonic beasts within a radius of a hundred meters couldn't escape and all became Lin Yuan's food.
Several days later.
"It's time to leave."
By now, most of the demonic beasts around had been hunted down. To maintain the current pace of cultivation, Lin Yuan had to go to other areas for repeated hunting.
Lin Yuan looked towards the depths of the Black Mist Mountain Range, planning to move towards that location.
The closer to the depths of the Black Mist Mountain Range, the denser the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became, and the stronger the demonic beasts became, naturally providing more help to Lin Yuan.
"However, before leaving, I can deal with those guys underground."
Lin Yuan's mind stirred slightly as he looked towards the ground.
The Black Mist Mountain Range, one of the ten major mountain ranges in the Azure World, vast and extensive, harbored countless demonic and ferocious beasts.
Many of these demonic and ferocious beasts were on the ground.
However, even underground, there was no shortage of traces of demonic beasts.
The "guys" Lin Yuan referred to with his mouth were a group of "Earthrock Rats."
These rat-like demonic beasts liked to live underground and, with their abilities, had dug countless "tunnels." At a depth of a hundred meters underground, they had even built a rat clan palace.
It was like a rat dynasty.
The reason Lin Yuan was able to discover the traces of these Earthrock Rats was because while exploring underground with his own roots, he inadvertently entered a "tunnel" and discovered the traces of those Earthrock Rats.
"There are probably more than three hundred Earthrock Rats, and the Rat King has Second Rank strength."
Lin Yuan thought to himself. The size of the Earthrock Rats was not smaller than that of Purple-eyed Rabbits, reaching nearly half a meter, and the Rat King was even two meters in size.
Like a giant bull.
The reason Lin Yuan waited until now to take action was because he didn't have much confidence before.
He was afraid that taking action would alarm the group of Earthrock Rats, causing most of them to escape.
With over three hundred Earthrock Rats, so much flesh and soul, even without counting the Rat King, it could greatly push Lin Yuan's strength forward.
Moreover.
"That Rat King, the reason for establishing its nest here is because of a Soil Spirit Medicine?"
Lin Yuan carefully sensed and discovered that deep underground, within the rat clan palace, there was an extremely pure soil-based spiritual power spreading.
Lin Yuan speculated that the reason why the Rat King was able to grow to a size of two meters was closely related to that Soil Spirit Medicine.
"Mine."
"All mine."
Lin Yuan's eyes were hot, his mind slightly moved, and hundreds of branches, as well as roots, began to move towards the rat clan palace.
Dozens of meters underground.
Tunnels crisscrossed, and grayish half-meter-sized Earthrock Rats continuously shuttled back and forth along the tunnels, bringing back all the food they found to the Rat King.
Suddenly.
Just at this moment.
One Earthrock Rat suddenly stopped.
It gently sniffed the air with its nose, as if sensing something.
The next moment.
Before this Earthrock Rat could react,
A black branch, as sturdy as fine iron, pierced through it.
"Squeak."
The Earthrock Rat let out a miserable cry, and soon its flesh and soul were completely devoured by the branch.
Next.
It was the Earthrock Rat's doomsday.
One black branch after another continuously pierced one Earthrock Rat after another, devouring their essence and soul, transforming it into Lin Yuan's own strength, thus forming a virtuous cycle.
"Refreshing!"
On the surface, Lin Yuan only felt exceptionally fulfilled. The abundant essence and soul of the Earthrock Rats turned into surging power, filling himself up.
If it were just normal demon tree seeds, it would be impossible to devour so many Earthrock Rats at once.
It would explode.
But Lin Yuan was different. As a Seventh Rank Evolver, under the control of his realm, he could quickly absorb all the power.
"Foreign gods still have some tricks up their sleeves."
Lin Yuan thought to himself as he devoured the Earthrock Rats.
The devouring ability he was exhibiting at the moment came from the instinct of the demon tree seeds, which was the ability of the ancestor demon tree.
This kind of ability had almost no drawbacks. It should be noted that even in the main world, devouring-type evolutionary paths would affect the purity of their own souls when devouring flesh and soul. But the devouring ability of the demon tree was extremely domineering; whether it was flesh or soul, it was its own nourishment.
"It's a pity that after reaching the Seventh or Eighth Rank, what matters is the comprehension of the rules, and the accumulation of energy is not that important."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
The "Red Spirit Liquid" of the Red Kun Lineage was the best example.
Such abilities, like those of demon tree seeds, had almost miraculous effects below the Seventh Rank, but they became much weaker at the Seventh Rank.
"Hmm?"
"I'm close to the Rat King's palace."
Lin Yuan's expression became slightly serious.
A hundred meters underground.
A small palace stood.
This palace, entirely made of mud, lacked any intricate details, but for rats, it was considered a very good building.
However.
Hiss.
A black branch, resembling a black dragon, lightly swept, and one-tenth of the palace collapsed.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak——"
A two-meter-sized Rat King sprang out, looking at the collapsed palace, with a hint of anger in its eyes.
As a Second Rank demonic beast, the Rat King had already acquired a certain level of intelligence, otherwise, it would not have specially built a palace to live in.
Now seeing the palace destroyed, it naturally stirred emotions within.
However, just as this Rat King was observing the black branch resembling a black dragon, thinking about how to attack,
Boom, boom, boom.
One black branch after another swept over.
Frightened, the Rat King hurriedly retreated.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak."
The Rat King screamed in panic.
The Rat King signaled for other Earthrock Rats to come and protect it.
However, no matter how the Rat King called out, only a few Earthrock Rats came.
And just shortly after they arrived, they were pierced by black branches and quickly turned to dust.
"Run."
Although the Rat King had Second Rank strength, seeing this scene, it dared not stay any longer.
It instinctively wanted to flee.
In the deepest part of the palace, there was a tunnel dug out by the Rat King itself.
It connected to another place. As long as the Rat King escaped through that tunnel, it would have a chance to survive.
But before the Rat King could run far...
Swoosh.
It was surrounded by the black branches that had rushed over.
The Rat King instinctively activated its life-saving technique.
A sandy-yellow light rose from its body.
But faced with the continuous attacks of hundreds of black branches...
Eventually, the sandy-yellow light on the Rat King's body shattered directly, and the two-meter-sized Rat King became nourishment for Lin Yuan's growth.
"Nice."
"Feels great."
Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and his branches swayed slightly.
The Second Rank Rat King was definitely the most delicious life Lin Yuan had devoured since arriving.
The abundant blood and fearful souls made Lin Yuan both physically and mentally pleased.
"That's enough."
"Let's see what that Soil Spirit Medicine is?"
Controlling the black branches, Lin Yuan cleaned up the underground battlefield and finally moved to the deepest part of the palace, where the Rat King resided.
There, a palm-sized spiritual plant was growing.
Under the plant's branches and leaves hung several thumb-sized spiritual fruits, emitting subtle fluctuations of soil-based spiritual power.
"Is this the Soil Spirit Medicine that catalyzed the Second Rank Rat King?"
Lin Yuan carefully examined it. He didn't recognize what kind of spiritual plant it was.
But it didn't matter. In any case, it would be directly swallowed, so there was no difference.
Lin Yuan was just curious about what mysteries such a small spiritual plant held.
"Eat it."
Without hesitation, Lin Yuan's black branches swept over and directly devoured all the spiritual power and spirituality of the spiritual plant.
"Done."
"Everything's settled."
"I can leave now."
After devouring the Earthrock Rat group and the Soil Spirit Medicine, Lin Yuan, satisfied, began to control the roots and slowly move towards the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
Although demon trees were not limited to a specific location and could move actively, their speed was not very fast.
To avoid being noticed by other demonic and ferocious beasts, Lin Yuan chose to move when there were as few demonic beasts passing by as possible.
Half a month later.
Lin Yuan successfully entered the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
Here was already the outer layer of the mountain range's depths. There was ample spiritual energy, but the number of demonic beasts had increased.
Rustle, rustle.
Lin Yuan's branches swayed, devouring hundreds of Earthrock Rats, as well as the Rat King and Soil Spirit Medicine.
Lin Yuan's size exceeded ten meters.
The pitch-black trunk and branches emitted a penetrating scent.
As a descendant of a demon tree, Lin Yuan naturally belonged to the "evil" camp.
"This won't do."
"I still need to disguise my aura."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment. If he continued to emit an evil aura, who would dare to approach him for hunting?
"It shouldn't be difficult to comprehend a secret method to conceal and disguise aura."
Lin Yuan began to comprehend again, based on the characteristics of demon trees, creating a unique method to conceal aura for this type of life form.
[Your comprehension is extraordinary. You feel the flow of your own aura and attempt to create a method to conceal it.]
[Your comprehension is extraordinary. You feel the flow of your own aura and attempt to create a method to conceal it.]
[Your comprehension is extraordinary. You feel the flow of your own aura and attempt to create a method to conceal it.]
Several days later.
Lin Yuan successfully comprehended a method to conceal aura.
When activated, his own evil aura began to converge.
Instead, it revealed a harmless aura.
In this state, some passing birds subconsciously landed on Lin Yuan's branches to rest.
"Not bad."
Lin Yuan wasn't interested in those weak birds at all. They didn't have much blood and energy, so he couldn't be bothered to devour them.
"What about that wolf demon?"
Lin Yuan sensed and found that several miles away, there was a wolf pack's den.
The leader of the pack was a wolf demon with a size of seven to eight meters, resembling a small hill.
And so, time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, fifty years had passed since Lin Yuan arrived in this world.
