Chapter 1763: He Died Just Like That?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Huang frowned because he found out that, at the same time Old Wang locked onto his target prey, there was another person who was targeting the same monster too.
This person was not a stranger to Lin Huang.
He was a major dao-level powerhouse from Royal—Yan Jun!
Before entering the mystic territory, Liu Fu specially gave a detailed introduction on the three major dao-level powerhouses from Royal.
Yan Jun was a combat cultivator, as well as an Element Master of the fire element.
To be honest, apart from being slightly interested in the fact that he was a combat cultivator, Lin Huang did not have much of an impression of him.
The reason being was that he was the weakest among the major dao-level explorers from Royal.
Judging by the strength of his aura, he had only mastered some 300,000 Dao seals. He had not mastered more than 350,000 Dao seals.
Such combat ability was not within Lin Huang’s range of consideration at all.
In reality, he found it rather strange seeing Yan Jun on this level.
Apart from himself, Yan Jun was the only person on the second level who had more than 250,000 Dao seals. Not only was he the only one among the explorers, he was the only one after including all of the monsters on this level.
Theoretically, with his ability, there was a higher chance that he would have been teleported to the third level instead of the current second level.
Lin Huang did not know if he was teleported to this level by accident or if he had come here on his own.
If he was teleported to this level by accident, it would have made more sense if he had gotten to the third level much earlier instead. There was no need for him to stay on this level for this half a month period at all.
If he came here on his own, that in itself proved that something was up with this guy.
However, throughout the three-day observation, Lin Huang indeed did not find anything off about him.
He decided to stay one more day on this level because he wanted to watch this guy a little longer.
Never had he thought that he would see such a scene before dawn.
As Lin Huang had many thoughts flying through his mind, Wang Xuanan reached the Autarch first.
He activated his ocular skill at once without hesitation.
As expected, the Autarch fell into his illusion.
While the Autarch was still struggling in Wang Xuanan’s illusion, Yan Jun arrived.
In reality, he had sensed Wang Xuanan’s presence when he was still far away. However, he chose to approach him sneakily.
He did not show himself while watching Wang Xuanan and the Autarch.
Instead, he hid to the side and observed the battle in silence.
Time passed as the Autarch was still stuck in the illusion. Wang Xuanan had sweat dripping from his forehead, but he was still holding on.
He knew that this might be the only chance for him to kill a major dao-level monster.
If he missed this opportunity, he might not have another chance.
Meanwhile, Yan Jun, who was still hiding in the dark, did not attack either.
He did not fight for the monster with Wang Xuanan, nor did he attack him.
Even Lin Huang was quite curious about what exactly he had in mind at the moment.
Time went by as another ten minutes passed.
The Autarch’s aura suddenly plummeted, and its vitality was fading.
There was a light in Wang Xuanan’s eyes, even as his back was drenched in sweat. He knew that he had made it!
The moment he recalled his ocular skill and relaxed, a red spark lit up in the sky out of nowhere. It shot toward his head as quickly as lightning.
It was too late when Wang Xuanan reacted.
He had drained a significant amount of God’s soul energy from his activation of the ocular skill. He was in his weakest state at the moment.
He had no strength to handle an attack like this that had come out of nowhere.
However, at that moment, he suddenly saw another red gleam shoot over at an even higher speed, crushing the spark completely.
Almost at the same time, a figure in white robe appeared before him.
“Get out!”
As a shout thundered from the golden mask, a figure was forced to show himself clumsily from the red gleam.
Wang Xuanan was clearly stunned when he saw the figure.
“Senior Yan Jun?!”
Yan Jun, who had a head full of red hair looked terrible at the moment.
“Explain yourself. Why did you attack your colleague from Royal?” Lin Huang asked in a cold tone.
“I didn’t see clearly who he was. I thought that he was an explorer from another organization. I attacked in order to steal his loot.”
Wang Xuanan seemed to be only half-convinced by the explanation that Yan Jun gave.
However, what the white-robed man said next made Yan Jun put his guard up instantly.
“Really? You’ve been watching him in the dark for over ten minutes, yet you didn’t recognize that he’s your colleague from Royal?” Sarcasm filled Lin Huang’s tone. “I’ll be honest with you then. I’ve been watching you for four days.”
Yan Jun looked rather grim. He thought that Lin Huang only happened to run into them just now. Never had he thought he had been watching his movements, and he had not sensed it at all.
“Who are you exactly?!”
“I’m a person who has a history with the Raiders like you,” Lin Huang answered with a smile.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Panic clearly flashed through Yan Jun’s eyes. Although he concealed it instantly, it did not escape Lin Huang and Wang Xuanan’s eyes.
“You’re the Raiders’ spy?!” Wang Xuanan instantly realized his identity.
“That’s slander.” Yan Jun glared at Wang Xuanan.
“Whether it is slander or not, we’ll find out if you let me read your memories,” Lin Huang suggested while smiling.
“That’s hilarious. Would you dare to allow someone else to read your memory?” Yan Jun scoffed.
“I’m not asking for your permission.” Countless saber gleams were consolidated in front of Lin Huang as soon as he was done speaking.
This time, he activated the 400,000 Dao seals from the Kingdom in his body.
Sensing the fluctuation from the Dao seals, Yan Jun turned around to run without hesitation.
Facing a saber cultivator who had more Dao seals than he did, he knew that a partial combat cultivator like him did not stand a chance of winning at all.
Each of the millions of saber gleams would easily break through his defense.
Wang Xuanan widened his eyes too. He could clearly sense the terrifying power within each of the saber gleams. They could kill him easily and instantly.
A question appeared in his head right away, ‘Who is this saber cultivator senior?!’
There were only 21 major dao-level powerhouses who participated in the exploration this time, and there were only four saber cultivators among them.
They were White Brow from the Longevity Tribe, Han Zhongjun from the Snow Kingdom, Xing Wuchen from Star Cluster and Jian Xin from Infinite.
Meanwhile, this white-robed man in front of him did not seem to be any of them.
As he held his doubts in his mind, Yan Jun’s devastating shriek suddenly echoed over the distance.
He was completely drowned in the blood-colored saber gleams that were like a sky full of lightning before he could run very far away.
The devastating shriek lasted for less than ten minutes before stopping suddenly.
The sky full of blood-colored saber gleams faded completely, revealing a corpse with almost no flesh intact.
“Yan Jun died just like that?!”
Wang Xuanan found it unbelievable when he saw the corpse.
A major dao-level combat cultivator with unparalleled defense was killed by someone so easily. He did not manage to fight back at all throughout the battle.
Lin Huang ignored Wang Xuanan’s reaction and arrived next to the corpse in a flash. He grabbed the head and began to read the memories…
