Furthermore, it was the Seven Arts Sword Energy that was improved!
The progress rose by 32%, and the Seven Arts Sword Energy reached 76% of the second level.
“As expected of a late-phase Enlightening Stage demon. The increase is twice as much as when I usually trigger the talent effect!” Lin Shen clicked his tongue in wonder.
Strictly speaking, a late-phase Enlightening Stage demon was as powerful as a cultivator at the seventh to ninth levels of the Bright Aperture Stage.
Lin Shen had surpa.s.sed at least four levels by killing Wu Jing. It was understandable that he had such a huge improvement.
After searching the corpses of Wu Jing, Lin Shen didn’t find many spoils of war. There were only two valuable items.
One was the pair of bronze hammers, which was a low-grade enchanted armament.
Although Lin Shen had no use for it, there was no lack of disciples who used copper hammers in the academy. If he sold it, he could exchange it for a lot of merit points.
The second item surprised Lin Shen. It was actually a low-grade essence stone.
He had obtained essence stone fragments from the cat general in the past, but this was the first time he had come into contact with essence stones of a higher grade.
“Nice! This is good stuff!”
A smile appeared on Lin Shen’s face.
The Merit Hall had a mission to collect essence stones.
The reward for one low-grade essence stone was five medium merits.
That was enough to exchange for a Nine Yang Talisman Sword!
Of course, Lin Shen didn’t intend to exchange the low-grade essence stone for five medium merits.
After becoming a cultivator master, he would need essence stones in many places, including when he cultivated. At that time, he would probably feel that essence stones were far from enough.
Using low-grade essence stones to exchange for merit points was a short-sighted act.
After putting away the essence stone, Lin Shen used Meltdown to blast the corpse into ashes. Then, he turned around and flew toward Mo Zhao’s tribe.
In the tribe.
After arranging for his subordinates to clean up the corpses and carry the injured clansmen down for treatment, Mo Zhao returned to the stone house and waited for Wu Jing to return.
Although there was an accident and his subordinates had suffered heavy losses, considering that Wu Jing had already personally gone hunting down the murderer, Mo Zhao felt much more relieved.
To be honest, it wasn’t a bad thing to lose more than half of his subordinates.
After all, it wouldn’t be long before he joined King Snakehead. He couldn’t bring a bunch of weaklings over and make them laugh at him.
Taking this opportunity, he could eliminate some of the old and weak ones.
Thinking of this, Mo Zhao felt much happier.
However, the most important thing was his meeting with Lin Chong.
Lin Chong had been going against him and fighting for the ownership of Green Reed Pond. Now, he finally had a chance to slap Lin Chong’s face. It was simply too satisfying!
“I hope he rejects Wu Jing’s suggestion. That way, I can use Wu Jing to kill him!”
Mo Zhao thought maliciously.
Of course, it was just a thought. Mo Zhao didn’t think that Lin Chong would be so stupid.
However, even if Lin Chong agreed, he would become Mo Zhao’s subordinate in the future. That idea made Mo Zhao even happier.
After letting his imagination run wild for a while, Mo Zhao suddenly came back to his senses and looked outside.
“Why isn’t Wu Jing back yet? That human was just a cultivator at the third or fourth level of the Bright Aperture Stage. Why has it taken so long? Could Wu Jing have lost that kid?”
For some reason, Mo Zhao suddenly felt uneasy.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside.
Mo Zhao thought that Wu Jing had returned and felt relieved. He wanted to go out to greet Wu Jing, but he quickly realized that something was wrong.
BOOM!
The ceiling suddenly collapsed and exploded. As gravel flew in all directions, a huge inkstone descended from the sky. It smashed toward Mo Zhao’s head like a mountain!
Mo Zhao’s expression changed drastically.
At the critical moment, he only had time to shout angrily and struck the half-moon steel fork in his hand upward. Countless black water gushed out as the fork slammed into the inkstone!
BOOM!
As soon as they collided, the surging black water instantly dissipated, and the inkstone continued to press down!
“A profound armament!”
Mo Zhao was horrified. He didn’t expect the enemy to have a profound armament-level Dharma treasure.
In the next moment, Black Peak Inkstone smashed him and his weapon into the ground!
Instantly, there was a loud bang, and dust rose everywhere.
Above the stone house, Lin Shen raised his fingers. The Black Peak Inkstone immediately floated up and returned to his palm.
The stone house had long disappeared and was replaced by a huge pit.
Meanwhile, Mo Zhao was lying in the middle of the pit, covered in wounds.
His eyes were filled with shock and confusion when he saw Lin Shen.
He could not understand. Didn’t Wu Jing go after this person?
Why was the kid here while Wu Jing was nowhere to be seen?
Could it be…
A terrifying thought suddenly flashed through Mo Zhao’s mind.
Judging from the current situation, that was very likely the truth!
Thinking of this, Mo Zhao was scared out of his wits and immediately begged for mercy.
“Master, please spare my life! Don’t kill me!”
Lin Shen was unmoved. He threw the Black Peak Inkstone and it expanded in the wind. It smashed down again with a domineering aura that could crush everything.
BOOM!
Mo Zhao was dead!
All around him, the demons were already dumbfounded.
It was only when Lin Shen turned to them that the demons snapped out of their daze and screamed as they fled in all directions.
Lin Shen moved as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he killed all the demons.
After this round of battle, another sword technique and a movement technique reached Perfection. They were all fused into the Nine Divine Sun Sword and the Cloud Dragon Rhythm, increasing their progress by 5% each.
Killing Mo Zhao also triggered the talent effect, increasing his cultivation by 10%.
After the battle ended, Lin Shen searched the entire tribe as usual. The result was similar to the previous tribe. The only valuable spoils of war were a pile of black iron bones.
“It seems that the demon tribes on the periphery of the Great Swamp of the West are very poor.”
Shaking his head, Lin Shen turned around and walked towards Green Reed Pond.
On the way here, he glanced at the Green Reed Pond. There were many Iron Bone Fish in the clear water. He could grab them and take out the Black Iron Bones.
However, just as he walked out of the tribe, Lin Shen stopped in his tracks.
More than ten meters away, a red fox was standing there.
She had washed herself. There was less dirt and blood on her body, and her fur had become smooth and shiny, but Lin Shen still recognized that the red fox was the one he had met that night.
The red fox looked past Lin Shen at the tribe behind him and suddenly spoke.
“You’re in trouble..”
