887 Great Gains
Swoosh.
The four beams of light stopped instantly, revealing the figures of four Chaotic Perfected Persons. With Lin Feng’s insight, he could naturally tell at a glance that these four people were all peak Chaotic Perfected Persons.
“Who are you?”
Lin Feng asked indifferently. He would not trust others lightly, especially since there were so many carcasses of Poison Dragons here. In Empyrean City, it was a sum of wealth that could make even peak Chaotic Perfected Persons envious.
“That… That’s Perfected Person Canglong!”
When Lu Ba saw the four Chaotic Perfected Persons in the void, his heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly bowed loudly and said, “Lu Ba greets Perfected Person Canglong!”
Then, Lu Ba sent a voice transmission to Lin Feng, “Senior, these four are all the four peak Chaotic Perfected Persons of Empyrean City. The one in the lead is Perfected Person Canglong. He abhors evil and is willing to help others. He has helped many cultivators before.”
Perfected Person Canglong, on the other hand, had no time to care about anything else. He only looked at the pile of Poison Dragon carcasses strewn everywhere. There were even the carcasses of four peak Poison Dragons.
Seeing so many carcasses, the four of them all fell silent. Even though they were all peak Chaotic Perfected Persons, when they saw this scene, they were still shocked to the extreme.
It was too stunning. This was the Poison Dragon Lake, the lair of the Poison Dragons. It had incurred the grievances of countless cultivators and Chaotic Perfected Persons. There was even a peak Chaotic Perfected Person who was devoured by the Poison Dragons here.
But now, Lin Feng had actually completely flattened the Poison Dragon Lake alone. Even seeing it with their own eyes, it was very stunning.
“No, there are still four Poison Dragons that are peak Chaotic dire beasts missing.”
Perfected Person Canglong’s expression darkened. Empyrean City had long acquired information regarding the eight peak Chaotic dire beasts in the Poison Dragon Lake. It was impossible for it to be wrong. Moreover, Perfected Person Canglong had indeed sensed the auras of the eight peak Chaotic dire beasts previously.
“There’s no need to search for them. I’ve already sealed another four!” Lin Feng said indifferently, but he did not let his guard down at all.
“Sealed?”
Perfected Person Canglong looked at Lin Feng in a daze. He also had a vague guess. Lin Feng probably had another spatial artifact, so they did not see the four sealed Poison Dragons.
“Why are the four Perfected Persons here at the Poison Dragon Lake?” Lin Feng asked again. If they had ill intentions, Lin Feng would not hold back.
Hearing the faint wariness in Lin Feng’s tone, Perfected Person Canglong seemed to have realized something. He shook his head and said, “Perfected Person, don’t misunderstand. These Poison Dragons were all killed by Perfected Person alone. We won’t take advantage. We were just worried about Perfected Person’s safety, so we specially came to reinforce you. Unexpectedly, we worried too much. Perfected Person is extraordinarily strong. You didn’t need our help at all.”
Perfected Person Canglong had never thought of coming to “take one’s share of the loot”. He did feel that it would be a pity if a peak Chaotic Perfected Person like Lin Feng fell, so he came to help him.
Perfected Person Canglong was very sincere, and Lin Feng’s expression softened.
“Thank you, Perfected Persons.”
With that, Lin Feng made a grabbing motion and began to sweep all the corpses of the Poison Dragons in the Poison Dragon Lake into his internal universe. This took about an hour.
Lin Feng scanned with his mental power and was rather happy. He had really gained a lot this time. There were a total of eight leak Chaotic dire beasts, 36 advanced Chaotic dire beasts, and 340 ordinary Chaotic dire beasts.
Even those peak Chaotic Perfected Persons might not be able to obtain such a huge gain in hundreds of years. After all, just killing eight peak Chaotic dire beasts was almost impossible.
“Since the four peak Chaotic Perfected Persons are already here, why don’t you follow me to the territory of the Three-eyed Giants?”
Lin Feng gave a slight smile. The Three-eyed Giants and the Poison Dragons were Lin Feng’s targets when leaving Empyrean City this time. Now, he had only eradicated the Poison Dragon Lake. The territory of the Three-eyed Giants had yet to be eradicated.
However, Perfected Person Canglong frowned and said, “No, Perfected Person Lin, it’s may be fine to annihilate the Poison Dragon Lake, but the territory of the Three-eyed Giants isn’t that easy. Perhaps with Perfected Person Lin’s ability, you don’t need to be afraid of the Three-eyed Giants, but there’s a slumbering Giant King among the Three-eyed Giants. That’s a Chaotic spirit beast!”
“Giant King?”
Lin Feng frowned. There was no description of the Giant King in the information Lu Ba had collected.
Although there was the word “giant” in “Three-eyed Giant”, they were not humans, let alone cultivators, but genuine Chaotic dire beasts.
According to the information Lin Feng had obtained, the overall strength of the Three-eyed Giants was only slightly stronger than the Poison Dragon Lake. There were 11 peak Chaotic lifeforms.
But now, Perfected Person Canglong actually said that there was a Giant King among the Three-eyed Giants. This surprised Lin Feng a little.
“That’s right. Looks like Perfected Person Lin doesn’t know. The Three-eyed Giant King has been slumbering for a thousand years. Only relatively ancient cultivators know. Although the Three-eyed Giant King is slumbering and hasn’t moved for a thousand years, once the territory of the Three-eyed Giant encounters a crisis, the Three-eyed Giants can wake the Giant King. Then, things will be troublesome.”
Lin Feng pondered for a moment, but in the end, he nodded and gave up on the idea of heading to the Three-eyed Giants’ territory. He was indeed very strong at the moment, but he was not confident in dealing with a Chaotic spirit beast at all.
Perhaps he could stay alive, but what was the use?
Now that he had eradicated the Poison Dragon Lake alone, it was time to convert his gains into strength. He had come to the Hallowed Beast Continent to cultivate and search for opportunities, not to fight for no reason.
Hence, Lin Feng, Perfected Person Canglong, and the others left the Poison Dragon Lake and returned to Empyrean City.
Lu Ba was very happy now, and his face was glowing. When he left the city, he had endured all kinds of ridicule, but when he returned to the city, he was the envy of everyone.
Following Lin Feng, Lu Ba obtained unimaginable benefits. As for the debt to the Extreme Spirit Tower, Lu Ba no longer paid heed to it.
“Thank you for your trouble, Perfected Person Canglong. I’ll definitely visit you in the future.”
“Haha, Perfected Person Lin, we didn’t help much. However, if there’s time, I’d really like to have a nice chat with Perfected Person Lin.”
The two of them exchanged pleasantries before Lin Feng returned to Lu Ba’s residence.
Lin Feng had gained a lot now. As for selling the carcasses of the Chaotic dire beasts, Lin Feng did not need to worry at all. There was a price for every Chaotic dire beast carcass, and it was the same in the entire city.
Lin Feng first sold the carcasses of 340 ordinary dire beasts, earning a total of 34,000 Chaotic prime crystals.
Then, Lin Feng sold another 16 advanced Chaotic dire beasts and obtained 160,000 Chaotic prime crystals. That was about 194,000 Chaotic prime crystals in total.
As for the remaining 20 advanced Chaotic dire beasts and eight peak Chaotic dire beasts, Lin Feng did not sell them for the time being. Lin Feng also wanted to refine Chaotic dire beasts at this level himself.
After all, he was also a cultivator, and needed to improve his strength.
According to the agreement, Lu Ba could get 20% of the spoils, but Lu Ba himself knew very well that he had done almost nothing. How could he really dare to ask for 20%?
Hence, he gritted his teeth, and only took the initiative to ask for 20,000 Chaotic prime crystals. It was enough for him to repay the debt, and he could still save a portion of the Chaotic prime crystals.
Moreover, he raised a small condition, which was that he hoped to follow Lin Feng.
Lin Feng thought for a moment. He did need a cultivator familiar with the situation on the Hallowed Beast Continent to handle some trivial matters. Lu Ba could be considered familiar with it. Moreover, Lin Feng knew Lu Ba quite well. Hence, he agreed and asked Lu Ba to follow him.
Lu Ba naturally thanked him profusely. He knew very well what it meant to be able to follow Lin Feng. This might be the greatest opportunity in his life, and he had to seize it.
