Chapter 399: Hammer You To Death!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
This self-created space confined too many cultivators.
Those who could walk in freely were all the core members of the Lin Clan. Regardless of cultivation or identity, the fact that one could enter this secret space was enough to show their loyalty towards the Lin Clan. Of course, the real reason for the Lin Clan’s trust in them was the restriction placed on their souls.
The ling Qi in this secret realm was many times higher than the outside world’s. A spirit vein was also buried within it, and it was an important cultivation ground of the Lin Clan for cultivating spirit herbs.
“Xian Xian, you must be kidding right? This joke is not funny at all…” Ying Jia said as he forced a smile, only to see Lin Xian staring at him emotionlessly.
“Hm?”
Ying Jia suddenly felt a strange bump. Something seemed to have touched him from behind.
“AH!”
As he turned around, he saw a long tree branch dipping down from the tree behind him. A plump pink fruit hung on the branch, but the really scary thing were the countless flashing faces on the surface of the peach. It was extremely creepy to a terrifying extent!
“With just guts like this, you still dare to have designs on me? What a useless fool that doesn’t know life from death.”
Lin Xian looked at Ying Jia disdainfully as she looked at his pathetic appearance.
“I really look forward to placing you into the ground as fertilizer. I wonder what kind of fruit will be produced from you.”
Lin Xian sneered coldly as she looked at Ying Jia who had fallen to the ground in fright.
A pair of jade-white palms gently caressed Ying Jia’s face. With just a light twist, the latter would become a limp corpse.
“Kacha!”
A bone-numbing sound that made one’s teeth sour rang out. However, it was actually Lin Xian’s expression that turned ugly!
“How is this possible! How could you be fine, wasn’t your cultivation base sealed?!”
Lin Xian gasped with disbelief. Her voice was trembling with shock and terror.
“Hehe, what a pity, you’re just a bit off, do you want to try again? Who knows, maybe if you used a bit more strength I won’t be able to block it?”
That bone cracking sound earlier had come from Ying Jia’s mouth in a jeering manner, which was why she was so shocked. She had intended to break Ying Jia’s neck in one move, but as she moved to twist his head, she found that she couldn’t move his head at all.
At this time, Ying Jia’s frightened look had disappeared completely. In place of it was a light sneer, as though he was toying with Lin Xian.
“As expected, women are the most scheming creatures on earth. To think that I liked you so much and you actually want to kill me.”
Ying Jia’s sneer was replaced with an ice-cold look of disdain.
“Hmph, so it looks like everyone has underestimated you. Not only are you not useless, you’re a genius! But unfortunately, my Lin Clan’s secret realm is not something that you can escape from.”
Lin Xian quickly regained her calm. There were four Golden Dan experts at every exit in this secret realm. In addition, she herself had a cultivation at the Foundation Establishment realm. She also has a single use talisman refined by Lin Qingyun, which could be used to attack or defend. Even if Ying Jia had hidden his cultivation, he still would not be able to escape.
Although Ying Jia had hidden his cultivation, it was impossible for him to be that strong. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been captured by a Golden Dan expert in the first place.
“It’s enough to kill you!”
Countless black chain runes appeared on Ying Jia’s body which began to break off one by one. With each chain breaking, his aura began to rise explosively!
A huge hammer came out of Ying Jia’s body and appeared in front of him. The hammer was completely black and looked extremely ordinary, like the most ordinary hammers found at the blacksmiths at the side of the road.
“Spiritual Sword Qi!”
Seeing Ying Jia’s aura rising, Lin Xian did not dare to delay any further. She took out a small black sword and slashed it at Ying Jia without any hesitation!
“It’s useless! If it’s a Golden Dan expert, I might probably turn and run, but this is just a mere sword talisman!”
Ying Jia’s expression did not change as his muscles bulged and his blood and Qi energy surged upwards!
“I’ll finish you in one hammer stroke!”
It was impossible to tell what Ying Jia was thinking from his expression. If he wasn’t afraid of others finding out his true cultivation, using a secret technique to seal his own cultivation base all along, how would he be captured so easily!
“Boom!”
A powerful shock wave rippled through the area, causing anyone near the peach tree to stagger.
He knew that this place was the Lin Clan’s territory, so the moment he made his move, it was with his full force. A hammer descended forcefully, like a primordial heavenly mountain dropping down. Although the hammer wasn’t very big, the force it carried was immense!
“Po!”
A light sound rang out; the trump card that Lin Xian was relying on was not able to withstand a single blow from the hammer!
A two, three hundred meters wide and almost ten meters deep pit had appeared on the ground!
Countless mud and rock fragments shot outwards in all directions like a grenade blast!
Large amounts of mud and rock flew towards the peach tree. But in the critical moment, a single peach drooped downwards and released a transparent barrier that easily blocked the torrent of mud and rocks.
“Dammit! Something’s wrong, it’s in the direction of the peach tree!”
Liu Qingyun who was still within the prison area suddenly looked up with an ugly expression. He hurriedly executed a technique and his body seemed to move instantly, disappearing from the area.
Tens of Golden Dan experts also rushed over from numerous directions. Ever since the peach tree had appeared in this secret realm, tens of Golden Dan experts had been moved over to guard it. But in the end, an accident had still happened!
The two Golden Dan experts who were directly guarding the peach tree were especially filled with fear and dread. They were in huge trouble this time; they could only hope that the peach tree was fine, otherwise, the two would definitely be torn to shreds by the City Lord!
“Hur hur, how interesting, seems like the Cloud District is going to become the center of attention this time. Who would have thought that the Human-Faced Peach Tree would actually appear here. It’s time to go, otherwise, it might be too late.”
Ying Jia looked at the few strands of green at the bottom of the pit and instantly felt his mood improve greatly.
A jade-like card inside of his body began to tremble and give off strange signals; after that, Ying Jia’s body disappeared slowly.
“Dammit!”
In the time it took to blink an eye, Lin Qingyun had arrived at the same spot that Ying Jia had disappeared from. He roared with rage and helplessness.
He only had a single daughter. If she died, she was dead. But the most damnable thing was that the news of the Human-Faced Peach Tree had been leaked. The entire continent was looking for this peach tree right now—as soon as the news spread out, large numbers of powerful experts would rush over here. In front of some of the strongest powers, the Lin Clan was a mere ant.
Lin Qingyun could only pray that Ying Jia had his own selfish thoughts for the Human-Faced Peach Tree and wouldn’t spread the news outside.
Even if the Ying Clan entered the fight for the tree, it was still much better having the entire continent contest for it. At the most, the two clans could share the Human-Faced Peach Tree.
But what Lin Qingyun would never expect was that Ying Jia had almost no sense of belonging to the Ying Clan. There were only about two or three people he cared about. Compared to the entire Ying Clan, this was not worth a mention at all. Furthermore, Ying Jia did not want to pull the Ying Clan into this danger.
About 10 li outside of Cloud District City, a human figure suddenly appeared, shaking his head. “The spatial transference talisman has shattered already, but it’s fine, this is well worth the price. Next up, it’s time to make the Lin Clan pay the price.”
