C457 The Second Elder Was so Shocked That He Almost Went Crazy
"Woo..."
A deep roar came from a distant mountain peak. Just this roar alone made Lin Cheng's heart palpitate uncontrollably. It was as if an ancient beast had been awakened from its deep slumber, and it let out an angry roar.
At this moment, Lin Cheng didn't hesitate at all. He unleashed his Spirit Power to its limit, pushing his speed to the limit as he fled frantically.
When he felt that terrifying pressure, he knew that his plan had succeeded. The terrifying Demonic Beast was attracted by the aura of the Red Flame Fruit. A Demonic Beast of this level... Once it got angry, it was definitely not something he could resist. Therefore, without any hesitation, he immediately fled.
Lin Cheng believed that the Second Elder of the Unification Sect wasn't a match for the Demonic Beast either. Regardless of whether the Second Elder wanted to kill him or not, he could only escape under the threat of the Demonic Beast.
"Little Brute, you can't escape!"
Seeing Lin Cheng escape, the Unification Sect's Second Elder furiously shouted. However, at this moment, he didn't dare to chase after Lin Cheng anymore, because he could feel that... He felt as if he was enveloped by an incomparably powerful spiritual sense. The pressure contained within the spiritual sense... It made his heart palpitate uncontrollably.
He hatefully looked in the direction where Lin Cheng had fled. Gritting his teeth, he turned around and fled in the direction of enlightenment.
At the same time, he was cursing in his heart. It must be because Lin Cheng had escaped into that mountain. This had alerted the Demonic Beast. This made him furious. He could not help but feel his scalp go numb. That Demonic Beast had been alerted. This was a huge disaster.
The people of Unification Sect had already thoroughly investigated the secret realm when they had just taken control of it. Even Sect Master had come personally. Therefore, they had also discovered the powerful Demonic Beast that was resting on the mountain.
There was even an agreement between Sect Master and the Demonic Beast. The Unification Sect restricted everyone who entered the secret realm from fighting the Demonic Beast. In exchange, the Demonic Beast would not target those who entered the secret realm.
When he saw Lin Cheng enter the mountain, the Second Elder immediately stopped his pursuit, because he knew what kind of terrifying Demonic Beast was there. He also knew about the agreement between Sect Master and the Demonic Beast.
However, he didn't warn Lin Cheng. Instead, he hoped that Lin Cheng would be devoured by the Demonic Beast as prey.
However, what disappointed him was that the Demonic Beast wasn't alarmed, and Lin Cheng actually wanted to compensate him, and even really gave him a Red Flame Fruit.
He wanted to accept the Spirit Fruit, and he wanted to kill Lin Cheng as well!
However, what he didn't expect was that before he could make a move, the Demonic Beast was startled. That terrifying pressure made his heart palpitate.
What made him especially shocked was that he felt that the spiritual sense of the Demonic Beast had actually enveloped him. It was clearly aimed at him.
Second Elder was extremely shocked. At this moment, he no longer had any thoughts of chasing after Lin Cheng. There was only one thought in his mind - escape! Escape immediately!
Swoosh!
The Second Elder's body enlarged, and his speed instantly reached its peak. It was even faster than when he was chasing after Lin Cheng.
Flee!
The farther the better!
This was the only thought in the Second Elder's mind. That Demonic Beast's spiritual sense was too powerful. The pressure it emitted was too terrifying, making him have no intention of resisting. He only wanted to escape from the range of the Demonic Beasts's spiritual sense.
If possible, the Second Elder really wanted to chase after Lin Cheng. However, it wasn't because he wanted to chase after Lin Cheng anymore. At this moment, he no longer wanted to chase after Lin Cheng anymore. He only wanted to catch Lin Cheng and use him as bait. This way, he might be able to lure the Demonic Beast away and give him some time to escape.
However, Lin Cheng, that Little Brute, was too cunning and cunning. How could he react so quickly? The moment they felt the pressure of the Demonic Beast, they didn't hesitate at all. They turned around and fled frantically, causing him to be slightly startled.
Now, he finally reacted. That Little Brute Lin Cheng probably already knew about the existence of the terrifying Demonic Beast in this mountain. The reason why he fled here was to alert the Demonic Beast and use it to get rid of him.
The reason Lin Cheng proposed to hand over the Spirit Fruit was to buy time and numb him... the despicable Little Brute!
These thoughts flashed across Second Elder's mind and he no longer had any distracting thoughts. Because the pressure was getting stronger and stronger, his heart was beating wildly. His scalp was numb, and he no longer cared about any distracting thoughts. He just wanted to escape. Running away crazily, running away at all costs!
At this moment, Lin Cheng had already escaped dozens of miles away, and he was still fleeing at a rapid speed.
Lin Cheng did not even turn his head to look at whether the Demonic Beast was chasing after him or chasing after the Second Elder.
He was very clear that with the scariness of the Demonic Beast, even if it didn't chase after him now and instead regarded the Second Elder as its target, it would be as easy as blowing off dust if it wanted to kill the Second Elder.
At that time, if the Demonic Beast unleashed its killing intent or sensed the aura of the Red Flame Fruit on his body, he would definitely become the target of the Demonic Beast.
Therefore, at this moment, Lin Cheng didn't have the slightest hesitation or pause. He increased his speed to the limit and fled frantically.
If possible, Lin Cheng really did not want to provoke that terrifying Demonic Beast. However, it was as if the Second Elder had gone mad, and was madly chasing after him. Furthermore, this was the Tianluo Secret Realm controlled by the Unification Sect, and it was impossible for there to only be the Second Elder and Tong Chenen here. There must be other powerful experts here.
Furthermore, before entering the secret realm, Lin Cheng had personally witnessed over a dozen Rogue Cultivator Experts being recruited by the Unification Sect. Once these powerful experts were alerted, there would be no way for him to escape.
If he was seriously injured or even killed in the fierce battle with Tong Chenen... Lin Cheng wouldn't hesitate at all, and he wouldn't even take half a step back or escape. However, if he had died in the hands of these people, especially when he was seriously injured and didn't have much strength to fight back... It wouldn't be worth it.
Helpless, Lin Cheng could only choose to disturb the Demonic Beast. He knew that the last time he and Zou Qingqi climbed the mountain, but at that time, the two of them were really too weak. In the eyes of the Demonic Beast, they were no different from ants.
Hence, they were not attacked by the Demonic Beast.
However, when the Red Flame Fruit appeared, the Demonic Beast was startled. This made Lin Cheng understand that the Demonic Beast was furious.
Although the Red Flame Fruit was an extremely rare top grade Spirit Fruit to him, to the Demonic Beast that was already powerful enough, it might just be an ordinary food.
The reason why the Demonic Beast's roar was filled with anger was not because of the Red Flame Fruit, but because someone had dared to steal its food. This was an affront to its dignity.
Therefore, Lin Cheng was not sure if the Demonic Beast would also target him.
Lin Cheng threw away all distracting thoughts and ran away frantically.
In the secret realm, Lin Cheng was flying at the fastest speed possible. He tried his best to probe the spiritual sense and divine sense to determine the direction and escape in the direction far away from the Demonic Beast.
Lin Cheng did not even bother to calculate how far he had run. He only knew that he had to run as far as possible. Otherwise, once the Demonic Beast caught up to him, he believed that he would not be as lucky as he was in the past.
After flying for a few hours, Lin Cheng finally stopped. He tried his best to release the spiritual sense, but when he found that the Demonic Beast's Qi had already disappeared, he felt relieved. He couldn't help but feel a lingering fear and relief in his heart.
He was not afraid of startling the Demonic Beast this time. Instead, he was afraid of his past ignorance.
When his realm and Cultivation Level had increased, he could clearly feel it. How powerful was that Demonic Beast? It was just that the pressure contained within the roar was... It made his heart palpitate uncontrollably. This was even when he was still an Incarnation Stage or even a Core Sea Stage. He had never felt this kind of pressure and fear when facing a Divine Ability Stage like Tong Chenen.
From this, one could imagine how powerful the Demonic Beast was.
The higher the realm, the more one could feel how powerful and terrifying the Demonic Beast was.
However, when he first entered the secret realm, he was only a mere First Level of Incarnation Stage Cultivation Level. He actually dared to steal the food of the Demonic Beast, the Red Flame Fruit. At that time, he wasn't discovered by the Demonic Beast. He was extremely lucky that he wasn't torn into pieces!
When he thought of this, Lin Cheng couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
Although he didn't know why the Demonic Beast didn't notice when he and Zou Qingqi stole the Red Flame Fruit, it was only after they left that the furious roars of the Demonic Beast could be heard. But there was one thing he was sure of. That time, he and Zou Qingqi were incomparably lucky.
Thinking back to that experience, Lin Cheng felt a lingering fear and relief.
"What realm is that Demonic Beast at? Could it be that this is an Almighty?"
After rejoicing, Lin Cheng couldn't help but feel curious.
As far as he knew, those above the Divine Ability Stage were almighty experts. This was the highest realm he knew. It was said that even the Most Powerful Person in the Ancient Times... Thinking about it, that Demonic Beast should also be a mighty figure, right?
"Perhaps, it's because my realm has increased, and my senses and senses have become sharper, that's why I can clearly feel the pressure of an expert?"
Lin Cheng secretly guessed. Perhaps it was because his realm was too low in the past, and the gap between his realm and that Demonic Beast was too great. He could only feel the scariness of that Demonic Beast, but he could not clearly feel how terrifying it was.
Now that his realm had increased, the spiritual sense and the others had greatly improved. This also allowed him to understand and understand the scariness of a true expert.
Thinking about how this Demonic Beast had lived in this secret realm for at least ten thousand years, or even longer, one could imagine how powerful and terrifying it was.
However, Lin Cheng still had some doubts. With the strength of that Demonic Beast, why didn't it notice that he and Zou Qingqi stole the Red Flame Fruit?
Was this really because they were incomparably lucky?
However, this question was clearly not answered by anyone. Hence, he only had some doubts. After that, this thought flashed across his mind.
Now was not the time to think about these things. At this moment, he was already heavily injured. Especially after being injured by the Second Elder's pagoda, it caused his internal organs to be greatly shaken. If it wasn't for the Monarch Spear, he wouldn't even have the chance to escape.
Right now, his top priority was to find a safe place to cultivate and heal himself as soon as possible. Using an Eighth Level Incarnation Stage Cultivation Level to fight a Divine Ability Stage warrior was already a huge loss to him. Furthermore, he had consumed a lot of energy. If he didn't heal his injuries in time... Perhaps, his cultivation base would also fall.
"Heaven Piercing Tower!"
Lin Cheng could not help but snort coldly, "If I get the real Heaven Piercing Tower, I will use it to kill an old thing like you!"
Just from hearing the name of Heaven Piercing Tower, one could tell that the magic treasure of the Second Elder was clearly a replica of the real Heaven Piercing Tower of Unification Sect.
However, the power of this imitation magic treasure was very limited. It was only because the material used was not bad, and the Second Elder's Cultivation Level was much higher than Lin Cheng's, that was why Lin Cheng was severely injured.
The one who really defeated Lin Cheng was not the imitation of the Heaven Piercing Tower, but the Second Elder's own strength.
However, this didn't mean that the magic treasure of the Second Elder's pagoda wasn't strong. In fact, if it wasn't for the pagoda, Lin Cheng wouldn't have lost so quickly even if he was still defeated.
Although the material used by the pagoda was far inferior to the Monarch Spear in his hand, it was still pretty good. Furthermore, the suppression of the pagoda was extremely terrifying. Hence, even though the Monarch Spear was indestructible, it still managed to destroy the pagoda. However, Lin Cheng was unable to withstand the powerful force contained within the pagoda, which was why he was severely injured.
Fortunately, Lin Cheng was holding the Monarch Spear in his hand. If it was any other weapon or magical treasure, he would have been suppressed by the small pagoda.
Perhaps, the Second Elder was very confident when he took out the small pagoda. However, he never expected that the Monarch Spear in Lin Cheng's hand was a weapon left behind by Monarch of Homo Clan. It was incomparably hard and indestructible!
However, the small pagoda left a deep impression on Lin Cheng. Even the imitation treasure was so powerful. If the real Heaven Piercing Tower could display its power, how terrifying would it be?
Furthermore, Lin Cheng's divine sense was born in the Heaven Piercing Tower. He had a better understanding of how extraordinary the true Heaven Piercing Tower was.
Lin Cheng guessed that this Heaven Piercing Tower probably wasn't a magic treasure crafted by an expert from the Unification Sect. It was left behind by an expert from the ancient times. Otherwise, the Second Elder wouldn't attach so much importance to a small pagoda that was forged in the same way as the one in the Heaven Piercing Tower. He might even have to treat it as his own Intrinsic Magic Treasure.
"If I have the chance, I must obtain the Heaven Piercing Tower."
Lin Cheng thought to himself.
He had only reached the second level of the Heaven Piercing Tower, but he had already given birth to his Divine Sense. If he could reach the top, he would definitely gain something unexpected.
"If I want to obtain the Heaven Piercing Tower, I need to have sufficient strength. Just the Second Elder alone is enough for me to flee in panic, let alone Sect Master, or even the previous generation's elder."
Knowing that it was still too early to think about all these, Lin Cheng no longer thought about it. He restrained the fluctuations of the spiritual sense and the Spirit Power, then chose a direction and left quickly.
Previously, he only wanted to escape as fast as possible. Along the way, he would inevitably leave behind his Qi and the fluctuations of the Spirit Power. If the Demonic Beast chased after him, it would be very easy to find him.
Therefore, he concealed the spiritual sense now, and erased all traces of himself.
After another four to five hours, the darkness had faded away. The sky had completely brightened up. Lin Cheng had also arrived at a desolate area.
At this time, he had almost reached his limit, so he didn't continue forward. If the Demonic Beast could still chase him here, he wouldn't be able to escape from the Demonic Beast unless he left the secret realm.
However, Lin Cheng still didn't want to leave the secret realm. There were still many places that he hadn't explored yet. As a rogue cultivator, he had pitifully few cultivation resources. He had to seize every opportunity to obtain as much as possible.
Lin Cheng found a slightly hidden place and started to cultivate and heal his injuries.
Two hours later, Lin Cheng's injuries had recovered a little. Although he was still seriously injured, he wasn't as weak as before. Therefore, he temporarily stopped his cultivation.
After that, Lin Cheng took out the spiritual herbs and Spirit Plant that he had collected from the Storage Bag. He took out the Blue Fire and began refining the pill. Although the spiritual energy in this mystic realm was rich, at his level, unless he had the Spirit-cohering Array... Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to recover quickly.2
Therefore, he needed the help of the pill.
The most basic of the Spirit Pill, the Returning Spirit Pill, was already a piece of cake for Lin Cheng. If he had a higher grade pill, his recovery would naturally be faster. However, he was still seriously injured at this moment, so he could only refine the Returning Spirit Pill.
However, even the most basic of the Returning Spirit Pill, with the support of the Blue Fire... He had also refined seven revolutions. Moreover, the spirit herbs and Spirit Plant he used had grown in this mystic realm for countless years. The medicinal properties were extremely strong, almost comparable to a higher grade pill.
If it was placed in the outside world, even if this level of pill could not cause a stir, it would definitely cause many people to look over.
With the help of the pill, Lin Cheng's recovery speed was extremely fast. Two days later, his injuries had healed by about 30%. If he did not consume the pill, he was afraid that he could at most recover 20% of his strength, or even lower.
However, Lin Cheng was still not satisfied with such recovery speed. He didn't know when the Tianluo Secret Realm would close up, but he had already used too much time on the other Spear Intent. If this continued, he might not have the time to thoroughly explore the secret realm.
Therefore, Lin Cheng decided to try refining the formation.
He planned to set up a Spirit-cohering Array here. The spiritual energy here was very rich. If he added the Spirit-cohering Array, he was confident that he would be able to recover from his injuries within ten days. Even if he couldn't reach the peak, it wouldn't affect his combat strength too much.
Because he didn't have the materials needed to refine the Array Flag, Lin Cheng simply took out some of the weapons in the Storage Bag.
Some of these weapons were the spoils of war that he obtained after he escaped from the Unification Sect and killed Yan Mei and the others who were chasing after him. There were also some broken magic treasures that he had bought in the marketplace.
Although it was a waste to use these materials to refine the Array Flag, he couldn't care about that much at this moment.
With his current Cultivation Level, he no longer needed these weapons. The most important thing right now was to recover his strength. As long as he had enough strength, he could have as many of these weapons as he wanted in the future.
In the next two days, Lin Cheng crippled several weapons one after another. Finally, the Spirit-cohering Array was successfully deployed. Fortunately, after refining the Array Flag, therefore, in order to prevent the people from the Unification Sect from discovering him... He placed another Illusory Array outside.
With the help of the pill and the Spirit-cohering Array, Lin Cheng's injuries were healed in just seven days. He stopped cultivating and planned to explore the secret realm.
Before the secret realm closed, he wanted to explore it as much as possible.
"Puff!"
At this moment, the Illusory Array suddenly moved slightly. Lin Cheng suddenly frowned.
Someone had touched the Illusory Array!
