Chapter 4701: Chapter 4699-leaving a toll
Translator: 549690339
Although the concentration of spiritual Qi in this place could not be compared to that of the five poisons swamp, it was still very rare. It was even better than some of the specially built cave abodes on the North Island.
“This oasis is the throat of the 10000-year-old Canyon. All the spiritual Qi that enters and exits the canyon will gather here. That’s why it’s so rich. It’s also because of this that this oasis appeared. Otherwise, it would definitely be a desert.” Huo yudie explained behind him.
It was clear that this girl had done her homework in order to get the Thunder mystical vine. After all, unlike Lin Yi, the ancient battlefield was still very dangerous for a peak nascent soul realm master like her.
The area of this oasis was not large, with a radius of only a few hundred meters. However, at this moment, dozens of high-level cultivators had gathered in this small place. Except for a few Masters of the jiedan stage, most of the others were Masters of the Yuanying stage, which was the mainstream strength of this trial.
These people were gathered together at this moment, as if they were facing something together. Each of them had a serious expression on their faces. Could it be that there was a terrifying spirit beast blocking their way?
Lin Yi and Huo yudie’s appearance didn’t cause any commotion, and they didn’t attract anyone’s attention. Everyone’s attention was focused on the empty space in front of them. There wasn’t any terrifying spirit beast there, but a group of cultivators. However, this group of people all had fierce auras, and they were definitely not friendly.
Lin Yi followed everyone’s gaze and looked forward. His eyelids twitched unconsciously, and his heart was extremely shocked. The leader of this group was a fierce man with a knife scar on his face. He was a master of the xuansheng stage!
Lin Yi couldn’t help but rub his eyes.
Wasn’t it said that only Yuanying stage experts and below could enter this place? otherwise, it would be impossible to pass through the transportation formation. Then, what’s the matter with this xuansheng stage expert? This ferocious aura that was far above that of a Yuanying stage master, it couldn’t be fake, right?
Even if there was someone who could fake their aura, it wouldn’t be able to hide from Lin Yi’s eyes. From head to toe, he could see that this Scarface was a true xuansheng stage master. Although he was only at the peak of the early xuansheng stage, this guy appearing in a place like this was already a huge news!
“How is it? Was there anyone else who wanted to pass? If you want to pass, quickly take out the toll. As long as you take out enough heavenly treasures, I’ll let you pass! Don’t worry, this 10000-year-old Canyon behind me is a primitive land that few people tread on. There are countless natural treasures inside, so it’s very easy to earn back my capital, hahahaha!” The scar-faced man laughed wildly.
Lin Yi and Huo yudie immediately understood what was going on-these people weren’t here to fight for any treasures, but to meet a Mountain King!
According to Huo yudie, the 10000-year-old Canyon was a rare treasure land in the ancient battlefield. Because of the unique environment, there were far more heavenly treasures here than in other places. If one were to try their luck in the desert, they might not be able to find a heavenly treasure in ten days to half a month. However, in this 10000-year-old Canyon, it was said that as long as one walked patiently for a day, they would definitely find something.
In addition, the judging criteria for the West Island trial was the heavenly and earthly treasures. Naturally, any trial-taker with some information would try to come here. Only people like Ren Zhongyuan who had other intentions would let go of this legendary treasure land.
Now that this Mountain King had occupied the only entrance here, it was equivalent to holding onto the weakness of everyone present, and they could only obediently let him slaughter them.
After all, they were all nascent soul cultivators, and there was no way they could do anything against a violent xuansheng master. After all, there was no one else like Lin Yi on the five Sky Class islands, and who could cross a realm and challenge a xuansheng master?
“How hateful! If this guy was alone, with so many of us together, I believe that even if he was a xuansheng stage expert, he wouldn’t be able to hold his own. It’s a pity that he has so many followers!” One of the men not far from Lin Yi said in a low voice.
“What can we do? we’re really unlucky to have met this scar-faced man. It looks like we’re done for at the trial. The princess of the West Island has such a good opportunity to find a husband. Sigh …” Another person sighed.
“Why would this Scarface appear in a place like this? I thought xuansheng stage experts were not allowed to enter?” Lin Yi hid behind them and asked.
“Heh, another new unlucky fellow.” The man turned to look at Lin Yi, and his eyes lit up when he saw Huo yudie. He was wearing a veil, so he didn’t act like a pervert. He just shook his head and smiled bitterly,”I heard from the people who came here the earliest that this Scarface was already at the bottleneck of the great circle of the original level during one of the trials. In the process of the trials, he encountered some kind of fortuitous encounter and accidentally broke through, so he can’t get out. He can only be trapped here and be the King of the Mountain.”
“I see.” Lin Yi subconsciously looked at Huo yudie. This girl was also at the peak of nascent soul realm. Could something like this happen to her? this place was really dangerous, even a rare breakthrough could cost him his life …
“That can only mean that he’s not strong enough. It’s a compulsory course for all the disciples of the East Province Academy to control their strength and realm, and it’s the most basic one. If he can’t even do this, it means that he’s only lucky to reach his current realm. His strength is seriously lacking.” Huo yudie rolled her eyes.
“Is this young lady from the East Province?” The man looked at Huo yudie again and saw that Huo yudie was too lazy to talk to him. He could only smile bitterly and said,””That’s right, but Scarface is a genuine peak early stage mysterious Ascension cultivator. No matter how strong a Yuanying cultivator is, they’re just noobs in front of him. The situation is more powerful than the person, so what can we do?”
“Yes, according to Scarface, he has been here for more than a hundred years. The group of people around him have come back late every time, so they can’t get out, so they have been recruited by him one by one and become the Overlord of this place. These people are all desperadoes, not to be trifled with!” The people around him said with lingering fear.
“In your opinion, if we want to pass through this place to reach the ten thousand year Grand Canyon, we must give him some heavenly treasures?” Lin Yi asked again.
“If you’re passing by, you have to leave some money. This is the rule set by this great king Shan. If you don’t have the strength to resist, don’t you have to give him heavenly treasures?” One of them said. (To be continued.) ”
