Chapter 1431: Don’t Go Out After Dark
Cheers! A loud chorus of cheers rang out in the night, followed by the clink of glasses. The amber alcohol swirled and rippled in the glass, exuding a strong aroma.
In a brightly lit hall on Yuncang Mountain, Lin Xun, Ning Meng, Shi Yu, Ye Xiaoqi and Gong Ming, who had built deep friendships with each other when they were young, were gathered together.
The ground was already littered with empty wine jars.
In the hall, everyone was chatting and laughing. They were all beginning to lose their coordination, and their visions were blurring.
This was already Lin Xuns fourth day on Yuncang Mountain.
Through the conversation, Lin Xun learned that Shi Yu and Ning Meng had originally planned to travel to the Ancient Wasteland Domain, but were stopped by a decree issued by the emperor.
The same happened to the other elite disciples from the aristocratic clans in the empire, Qinglu Academy, Blood Kill Camp and the military.
Instead, they were all sent to Blood Kill Battlefield.
We left in such a hurry at the time, and also the matter was confidential, so we couldnt inform you in advance. Shi Yu sighed, I never thought that after more than ten years, we brothers would finally be reunited here. Its making me emotional and reminds me of a poem.
Stop it! I dont want to hear you reciting poetry! Just drink! Ning Meng shouted.
Shi Yu rolled his eyes and grumbled, Vulgar!
Everyone else burst into laughter.
Its a shame that Li Duxing still hasnt woken up yet... Gong Ming sighed.
That one sentence turned the atmosphere in the hall a little heavy.
Damn it, if I find out who did that to him, I will chop them up! Ning Meng gritted his teeth.
Everyone else was filled with murderous intent.
Lin Xun was silent for a moment and then he said, We must avenge him!
Deep in the night, Lin Xun stood in front of a stone building on the top of the mountain.
This was his residence. From here, he had a panoramic view of the mountains in the distance.
The night was dark, but the purple auspicious clouds and mist swirling around Yuncang Mountain blocked off the darkness.
What is hidden in the dark night? Lin Xun frowned.
Back when he first came to Blood Kill Battlefield, there was a rule that he had to follow: He must return to the camp before dark, otherwise he would face great danger.
This was an iron rule, and no one dared to disobey it.
Now that Lin Xun returned here after so many years, he was surprised to see that the rule of not going outside after dark was still kept.
And no one dared to ignore it.
It was as if unimaginable terrors existed in the dark night.
Blood Kill Battlefield is an extremely mysterious place. There are many different opinions about its origin, and no one can give a clear answer to this day.
It was unknown when Bloodthirsty Queen Zhao Xingye had come and stood next to Lin Xun, staring into the distant darkness with her bright and unfathomable eyes.
For example, Blood Kill Battlefield during the day is completely different from that at night. It is like two different worlds.
Zhao Xingye continued, During the day, Blood Kill Battlefield is like the world of the living, and no strange or dangerous things will happen.
At night, Blood Kill Battlefield looks as if it had been turned into the underworld. Bizarre and ominous things will appear one after another, and the place will become treacherous and unpredictable.
I didnt understand before, but now...I dont understand it even more... Zhao Xingye sighed lightly.
Evidently, she had also been thinking about the same question for a while.
But there is one thing that is certain: Even Saints cant act without authorization in the dark, because there are terrifying dangers that can kill even Saints hiding in the darkness.
Lin Xun couldnt help asking, Senior, have you investigated it before?
Zhao Xingye shook her head. The emperor and the empress had investigated once, but they immediately returned to the camp within minutes. They both looked grave and aghast at the time. I never expected that they would lose their composure like that given their strength.
What did they see? Lin Xun asked curiously.
Zhao Xingye was silent for a moment before she answered, The emperor mentioned that Blood Kill Battlefield at night turns into completely different from how it is during the day. It is like a very unfamiliar world, similar to...the netherworld hell in legends...that is, the place of the dead. Her low voice drifted in the night.
Lin Xun felt an inexplicable chill in his heart. When he looked at the darkness again, his gaze changed. Netherworld hell?
Does the place that only exists in vague legends really exist in this world?
So, I advise you not to leave the camp after the dark. Even if you have many things on you that you can rely on, dont go. Whether it is in the past or now, I have seen many people who did not believe in the danger, but they all met the same fate.
When Zhao Xingye said that, her eyes showed a rare hint of fear.
What?
Disappearance. Zhao Xingye stated, They disappeared without a trace and never came back. Even if we searched for them during the day, we could not find a single trace, not even a wisp of their aura.
You should know that, with my ability, I can track down even someone who had been killed and obliterated as long as a trace of their aura remains. But unfortunately, I have never found anyone who disappeared in the night.
Not a single one? Lin Xun asked again as if to confirm.
None, Zhao Xingye answered without hesitation.
Lin Xuns eyes flashed and his heart palpitated. Once night fell, Blood Kill Battlefield would turn into an unfamiliar hell-like world?
When Zhao Xingye left and Lin Xun returned to his own room, he was still thinking about the same thing.
In the end, he shook his head and completely quelled his curiosity. He did not want to investigate it at the risk of his life.
Of course, if there was a chance in the future, he wouldnt mind checking it out.
Meanwhile, in the Omega Secret-Realm, the mysterious woman sitting under the Omega Door was in deep thoughts, With day and night as the boundary for yin and yang to coexist?
She stood up as if to do something.
But immediately, she narrowed her eyes, looking surprised, as if she sensed something, and she murmured, What strange powerit is able to block my investigation Could there really be another world in the darkness of night?
Only the supreme law power of the world can block her investigation!
Interesting, I want to see what is hidden in this dark night... With that thought, the mysterious woman suddenly turned a rain of light and disappeared from the Omega Secret-Realm.
Lin Xun was completely unaware of this.
After returning to his room, he resumed his cultivation training.
Hu
As he breathed in, waves of purple aeth qi roared towards the room from all directions like the tide.
That surging aeth power was astonishingly pure and powerful!
Along the way to Yuncang Mountain, Lin Xun had also tried training among the magnificent mountains. He was already amazed by the abundant aeth qi.
But the aeth qi in Yuncang Mountain was not only abundant, but also astonishingly pure, far superior to any other place he had been. Unquestionably, it was a sacred and blessed cultivation land that was impossible to find in the outside world!
If I trained here, I wonder how much I can improve my physical cultivation before the Dao Observation Mountain contest in two years...
Lin Xun pondered for a moment and then he couldnt help shaking his head.
One must not seek quickness when improving their cultivation, but strive for steady progress. Stability should always come first.
Otherwise, it would be like a castle in the air, with an unstable foundation.
From that day on, Lin Xun stayed on Yuncang Mountain and put his entire body and mind into improving his physical cultivation. He lived a secluded life and rarely left the house.
Occasionally, he would drink and chat with Ning Meng, Shi Yu and Ye Xiaoqi, but he spent most of his time and energy on cultivation.
Zhao Xingye did not say anything about this, and even issued an order to deliver one hundred kilograms of Divinity Primordial Crystals to Lin Xun every seven days to supplement his training.
Many experts of the empire felt that this was a bit unfair, thinking that Zhao Xingye was too biased towards Lin Xun.
After all, Divinity Primordial Crystals were not cabbages that could be picked anywhere.
Even in Blood Kill Battlefield, one had to search hard for them. It was regarded as a scarce cultivation resource and had immeasurable value.
In the empire camp, every expert was tasked with collecting Divinity Primordial Crystals, and twenty percent of them had to be handed over to the camp as strategic reserve.
Fortunately for Lin Xun, ever since he joined the empire camp, he only trained and drank. The Divinity Primordial Crystals he needed for his cultivation training were also taken from the strategic reserve of the empire camp. Naturally, many people were upset about it and found it unfair.
Why should Lin Xun get to enjoy the Divinity Primordial Crystals we gathered through hard work and risking our lives?
Ever since that guy joined the camp, he has never done anything to help. Its so annoying!
Similar discussions happened more and more frequently as time went on.
The discontent that the experts of the empire had was beginning to build up
But there was nothing they could do about it. Lin Xun almost always stayed in his residence on the top of the mountain and never left. They had no opportunity to criticize him nor vent their anger and dissatisfaction.
Moreover, Zhao Xingye knew about this very well, but she had no intention of changing the situation.
With her attitude towards Lin Xun, pent-up grievances were bubbling up in many people.
Shi Yu and Ning Meng also knew about this, and they all secretly laughed. Of course, they would not be unhappy about Lin Xun taking advantage of them.
Time flew by, and three months had passed.
To the joy of the entire camp, Li Duxing regained consciousness and seemed to suffer no side effects.
But what annoyed many people was that after he woke up, he went to find Lin Xun, and it was said that the two drank and chatted until dawn
Lin Xun, that parasite! Hes so annoying!
I cant stand this anymore. I cant let that freeloader continue to enjoy the Divinity Primordial Crystals that we have collected at the risk of our lives! On that day, someone decided to settle things with Lin Xun.
Suddenly, commotion broke out across the entire camp. Those who had long been unhappy with Lin Xun gathered together and marched towards the top of the mountain, creating a huge disturbance.
Shi Yu and Ning Meng couldnt help sneering when they heard about it. Those guys are clearly just jealous!
But when they learned the identity of the expert who spearheaded the group in settling things with Lin Xun, Shi Yu and the others narrowed their eyes in surprise.
Why would it be that guy? Ning Meng exclaimed.
