Divine Emperor Demon Emperor

Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Frenzied Hunt

After spending two days in the Imperial City Mountain Range, Little Ape and the Black-striped Tiger had hunted a great many Tier Three Demon Beasts, and Lin Yun had accumulated a large quantity of Tier Three Demon Beast Essence Blood in his Space Ring.

As time was running short, Lin Yun and his group left the Imperial City Mountain Range and headed for the Yunlu Mountain Range. Since the Yunlu Mountain Range was quite a distance away, they traveled at full speed. After all, they only had one month.

Thanks to the Black-striped Tiger’s speed, they wasted much less time on the road. Upon arriving at the Yunlu Mountain Range, Lin Yun didn’t linger on the outskirts. The group charged directly into the depths of the mountain range, the territory of the Tier Three Demon Beasts.

Hunting Tier Three Demon Beasts in the Yunlu Mountain Range was convenient, as the territories were easy to distinguish. The outermost area belonged to Tier One Demon Beasts, the next region belonged to Tier Two Demon Beasts, and the deepest part was the territory of Tier Three Demon Beasts.

Striding confidently into the Tier Three Demon Beast territory, Lin Yun and his group began to frantically hunt them down. Wherever they went, the Tier Three Demon Beasts didn’t even have a chance to flee.

In a single day, Lin Yun’s group hunted more than fifty Tier Three Demon Beasts. It was true—the number of Demon Beasts in the Yunlu Mountain Range was indeed far greater than in the Imperial City Mountain Range.

For the next several days, Lin Yun and his group remained in the Yunlu Mountain Range, and their gains were considerable. The Tier Three Demon Beasts that once forced Lin Yun to flee were now his prey. Such was the transformation.

By the seventh day, they had ventured into the deepest part of the Yunlu Mountain Range. The Tier Three Demon Beasts here were gradually growing stronger, and many were now a notch more powerful than the Black-striped Tiger.

For the sake of efficiency, Lin Yun began to participate in the hunts as well. Although the Tier Three Demon Beasts here were much stronger, they stood no chance against the combined assault of Lin Yun, Little Ape, and the Black-striped Tiger.

As they ventured deeper, Lin Yun unexpectedly ran into some old acquaintances. It was Iron Blood—one of the great Primordial Ocean Realm experts from his time in Mysterious City—and the Iron Blood Young Master.

After so many years, seeing Lin Yun again filled Iron Blood with a deep sense of melancholy. The young man he once dismissed as an ant had now grown into someone even he had to be wary of.

”Young Master Lin, I never expected to see you here,” Iron Blood said respectfully. The Lin Yun of today was powerful enough to command his utmost reverence.

Lin Yun looked at Iron Blood, who hadn’t changed much. Their group had a total of ten people. Other than Iron Blood, who was at the Third Layer of the Primordial Ocean Realm, the rest were almost all Late Stage of the Qi Sea Realm Martial Artists. Over the years, the Iron Blood Young Master had also reached the Eighth Layer of the Qi Sea Realm in his cultivation.

”What are you all doing here?” Now, when interacting with Iron Blood, Lin Yun felt no pressure whatsoever. In fact, it was Iron Blood who felt immense pressure from Lin Yun.

”To be honest, Young Master Lin,” Iron Blood replied, ”we came here for an Earth Level Six-Stars Spirit Grass. However, it’s guarded by a Tier Three Peak Demon Beast. We haven’t been able to obtain it and have already lost quite a few of our brothers.”

Standing to the side, the Iron Blood Young Master looked at Lin Yun with a complex feeling in his heart. ’Back then, we were competing in the Four Great Young Masters tournament in Mysterious City. In just a few short years, Lin Yun has grown to a level I can only look up to.’

”A Tier Three Peak Demon Beast...” Lin Yun’s interest was piqued. A Tier Three Peak Demon Beast was something his group could definitely kill, and there was also an Earth Level Six-Stars Spirit Grass to be had.

Although Lin Yun currently had many precious Spirit Grasses he had obtained in the Mysterious Forest, who would ever complain about having too much wealth?

Looking at Iron Blood, Lin Yun said nonchalantly, ”Since the Iron Blood Gang Leader is unable to kill this beast, allow me to handle it. However, the Earth Level Six-Stars Spirit Grass will belong to me.”

Hearing this, Iron Blood didn’t dare raise the slightest objection. Being in Lin Yun’s presence put him under immense pressure. As a Primordial Ocean Realm expert, Iron Blood naturally had his own sources of information.

Iron Blood knew that Lin Yun had slain four Early Stage of the Primordial Ocean Realm experts and one at the Middle Stage of the Primordial Ocean Realm in the Imperial Palace. He certainly didn’t believe he was a match for Lin Yun.

With the matter settled, Lin Yun led Little Ape and the Black-striped Tiger, striding confidently into the territory of the Tier Three Peak Demon Beast.

Sensing the intrusion, a roar soon echoed through the mountain forest, and a Wind Spirit Leopard, even taller and more robust than the Black-striped Tiger, charged out from the trees.

The Wind Spirit Leopard’s gaze immediately fell upon Lin Yun. Though the Black-striped Tiger was a Tier Three Demon Beast, the leopard’s instincts told it that the truly dangerous one was the seemingly fragile human youth.

Behind Lin Yun, watching him face the Wind Spirit Leopard alone, Iron Blood spoke to Lu Bingning and Lan Xi in a sycophantic tone, ”Will Young Master Lin be alright? Perhaps I should go and lend him a hand?”

Hearing this, Lu Bingning smiled faintly and replied, ”There’s no need to worry, Iron Blood Gang Leader. Just stand by and watch.”

Iron Blood could see nothing but confidence on the faces of Lu Bingning and Lan Xi. His companion, the Iron Blood Young Master, however, just stood there dumbstruck. ’Lu Bingning and Lan Xi are just too beautiful,’ he thought, ’the most beautiful women I have ever seen.’

However, they were Lin Yun’s women. Aside from his private thoughts, the Iron Blood Young Master dared not make a single move.

As the Wind Spirit Leopard appeared, Little Ape swelled to the height of a grown man. In an instant, Lin Yun, Little Ape, and the Black-striped Tiger launched their attack.

Little Ape’s bloodline suppression had a clear effect on the Wind Spirit Leopard. Little Ape’s strength had grown considerably recently, and it was on the verge of breaking through to the Tier Three Demon Beast level.

A flicker of fear appeared in the Wind Spirit Leopard’s eyes as it looked at Little Ape. Seizing the opportunity, the Black-striped Tiger swiped at it from the front. Caught off guard, the Wind Spirit Leopard was sent flying by the tiger’s paw.

Seizing the opening, Lin Yun brandished his Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear and instantly unleashed Thunderfire Bombardment. His entire body transformed into a blur of flame and lightning, piercing through the Wind Spirit Leopard’s throat in a flash.

In just a few moments, a Tier Three Peak Demon Beast, the Wind Spirit Leopard, was slain by Lin Yun’s spear. Watching the scene unfold, Iron Blood and his men were utterly dumbfounded.

’They had lost so many men trying to kill this Wind Spirit Leopard, yet Lin Yun had managed it in mere moments!’

”Iron Blood Gang Leader,” Lin Yun said, turning to him, ”as we agreed, the Earth Level Six-Stars Spirit Grass is mine. I don’t want anything else.”

If Iron Blood had been respectful toward Lin Yun before, he was now downright fearful. The strength Lin Yun had just displayed far exceeded his expectations. He had originally thought that he and Lin Yun were more or less evenly matched.

But now, Iron Blood had no doubt that it would take Lin Yun hardly any effort to kill him.

”We will follow all of Young Master Lin’s arrangements,” he replied respectfully.

Afterward, Lin Yun began to refine the Wind Spirit Leopard’s Essence Blood, while Lu Bingning and Lan Xi collected the Earth Level Six-Stars Spirit Grass. As for the other Spirit Grasses, like the Earth Level Four-Stars and Five-Stars ones, Lin Yun had no interest in them, and neither did Lu Bingning or Lan Xi.

Lin Yun only took the Earth Level Six-Stars Spirit Grass and the Wind Spirit Leopard’s Essence Blood. Iron Blood and his men, on the other hand, scoured the area and collected all the other Spirit Grasses.

This alone revealed the difference between Lin Yun and them—a difference in perspective. What Lin Yun disdained, Iron Blood and his men regarded as priceless treasures.
