Translator: Sparrow_ Editor: Sparrow_
As Yue Hongyan looked at the little kid in the urn, she furiously exclaimed, "It was not easy to get here, but still we are unable to find Xiao Huan Zi..."
Kang Nanhua sighed, "The time is not ripe. By blindly alerting others through our actions will not help us to save Xiao Huanzi."
Yue Hongyan closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she reopened her eyes, her gaze looked much calmer and determined. She said, "I understand, Mr Kang. We have already disseminated the news and when outsiders hear of it, we will have our chance.
Lin Feng, who was hiding in the corner, slightly nodded in agreement. He had previously suspected someone from the world who had learnt of news regarding the Mortal Spiritual Elixir before leaking it out. He just did not think that it was from someone he knew for a long time.
Kang Nan Hua and Yue Hongyan exited the stone house together while Lin Feng surreptitiously followed the two of them out.
"Rise!" Kang Nanhua whipped out a silver shuttle and began conducting a ritual. The silver shuttle was converted to a streak of white light in a split moment, which looped around both Kang Nanhua and Yue Hongyan before transporting them into space.
Although it was just a Celestial Space flying shuttle, it was a Magic Item from the Aurous Core Stage in the Grand Celestial World. It could enhance short-distance space travel.
Looking back at the countless big urns in the stone house, Lin Feng pondered for a moment. He exited the ice city and combined both the Fire and Ice Fruit and the Grand Sun Primordial Flame to rapidly create cold air to mend the big hole in the ice wall.
After finishing all these, Lin Feng retrieved the Black Cloud Flag and left the secret elixir chamber.
Lin Feng did not rush forward to meet with Kang Nanhua and Yue Hongyan as he had some thoughts that he could not rationalize and needed to think everything through first.
After leaving Changchun Peak and reaching the mountains, Lin Feng pondered carefully over everything. As he was deep in thought, he suddenly felt a wave of demonic aura appearing in the vicinity.
Lin Feng lifted his eyes to survey his surroundings and saw the shadow of something huge appearing at the peak of the mountain while peering over in the direction of Changchun Peak.
The person was taller than ten feet and his body was burly. He looked extremely ferocious and his forehead was engraved with the word 'King' (王) in a light golden color.
What was more intriguing was that the exposed skin from head to toe of this person was shining in a golden radiance.
The movement of his breath carried along an obvious demonic aura and he possessed the mana of a cultivator not from the human clan.
"This person is of the tiger demonic clan from head to toe." Lin Feng thought in his head as his eyes surveyed the person.
The Gengjin Tiger Tribe was the blood descendant of an Immemorial Demon and inherited the ancestor's heavenly gifts of controlling the metals, possessing impenetrable skin and bones, golden teeth and metal claws. No weapon could penetrate their bodies and no mantra could injure them. They were the most combative demonic tribe.
The leader of the Gengjin Tiger Tribe, the Gengjin Tiger King, was notorious in the demonic world and could be considered an infamous Demonic Lord and one who had a reputation amongst the Demonic Lord.
Just like the Fire Crow Tribe, the Gengjin Tiger Tribe's habitat was also a connecting path to the vast lands of the demonic world and the entrance was located not far off from the south of the Hengduan Mountains.
Lin Feng looked at this tiger demon and thought, "It seems like the batch of Mortal Spiritual Elixir that the Hundred Herbs Grandmaster cultivated for so long have attracted the attention of many powerful people."
Just like a cultivator of human origin who wanted to form an Aurous Core, for a demon to be promoted to a Demonic Commander, it would also have to form a demonic pill. Although it was slightly different, the huge amount of spiritual energy contained inside a bogus crucible and core was also a huge benefit to the demonic clan.
Lin Feng suddenly recalled some rumors that claimed, "It is said that the Gengjin Tiger King is the nemesis of the Hundred Herbs Grandmaster?"
Come to think about it, the methods of the Hundred Herbs Grandmaster was mainly to control herbs and cultivate deadly poison to injure his enemies. Whereas for the Gengjin Tiger King, his demonic body was too strong such that it was unafraid of deadly poison. The Jinxiang aura was also deadly and was definitely the jinx of the wooden elements.
In the 5 elements, gold is the jinx of wood and was not just based on small talk.
This tiger demon looked over at Changchun Peak, muttering to himself, "That Mortal Spiritual Elixir really had such a strong effectiveness?"
"Most definitely so."
Lin Feng suddenly revealed himself while claiming so.
"Who is that?" If it not were for the fact that Lin Feng had opened his mouth, the tiger demon did not even realize that someone was closing in on him. Upon realizing this, the tiger demon was shocked and retreated 2 steps backwards and curled his body while looking at Lin Feng, ready to attack him.
As Lin Feng faced the tiger demon, he concurrently felt a wave of killing intent approaching him. He was facing a ferocious beast who was ready to devour someone.
"There was already a cultivator from the Hundred Herbs Sect who increased the quality of the Aurous Core from yellow core to jade core after consuming the Mortal Spiritual Elixir."
With regards to the fact that the tiger demon could attack anytime, Lin Feng seemed to ignore it and was only interested in introducing the real effects of the Mortal Spiritual Elixir.
Seeing that Lin Feng had no ill intentions, the tiger demon became less tense, although he remained in an alert stance.
On the contrary, even though the killing intent given out by the tiger demon was intense, Lin Feng exuded a sense of self-control and calmness.
The tiger demon stared at Lin Feng, gradually saying, "If this Mortal Spiritual Elixir is so powerful as described, the sects and tribes in the human clan are not tempted by it? Why do they allow the elixir to be held by the Hundred Herbs Sect, which is only a medium-grade sect?"
"Moreover, if this elixir really has such a magical effect, the Hundred Herbs Sect will have risen in ranks already. In the human clan, apart from the 3 Grand Sages, the other sects, including the Hundred Herbs Sect, can be taken upon lightly."
Even though the features of the tiger demon looked ferocious, the way the tiger demon looked and spoke was calm and logical. The tiger demon analyzed the benefits and disadvantages clearly and carefully.
Lin Feng grinned, patiently saying, "There are 2 reasons that limited the value of the Mortal Spiritual Elixir. First is that its effect has its limit and second is that the rate of successfully forming it is extremely low."
He introduced with detail the elements and inherent flaws of the Mortal Spiritual Elixir.
After the tiger demon heard it, his gaze shifted uncontrollably, revealing that his disturbed mind.
For the cultivators of the human clan, the Mortal Spiritual Elixir was of paramount importance. But for the demonic clan, the value was not that great, although it was still a relatively important resource for them.
Moreover, if the Hundred Herbs Sect used the Mortal Spiritual Elixir to strengthen itself, it would not be a good thing for the Gengjin Tiger Tribe.
One for and one against, as the reasons piled up, there was huge difference in the potential outcomes.
The tiger demon made up his mind in an instant. The intelligence must be reported to the sect and the Gengjin Tiger King would make the decision.
But as he stared longer at Lin Feng, he became more suspicious and dangerous. He asked Lin Feng, "Who are you exactly? How do you know so much?"
Lin Feng laughed, "You do not have to know who I am."
The tiger demon squinted his eyes and the killing intent became more intense. However, he did not rush to make a move as he did not understand the true capabilities of Lin Feng.
Lin Feng looked at the behavior of the tiger demon and knew that he wanted to bring him back to his tribe for further interrogation.
Although the demonic aura of this tiger demon was ferocious, it was easy for Lin Feng to take care of him and hence he was not fearful of him. If not for the fact that he need the tiger demon to report the news back to his tribe, Lin Feng would not have mind getting himself a blanket made from tiger skin after killing the tiger demon.
Just as the tiger demon hesitated to make a move, there was a thunderous noise coming from the sky from a distance
"Relish the sound!"
Hearing this familiar Thunder Draco Horse screeching voice, Lin Feng creased his brows and said, "Not this person again? Better not spoil my plans."
As lightning struck, four Thunder Draco Horse dragging a massive chariot emerged rapidly from the sky.
In the car, there was a guy called Hong Ye, who had long, white hair and was decked in a black dress. Even so, his way of attracting attention was a mess.
He suavely looked at tiger demon and Lin Feng, before swaying his sleeves and telling Lin Feng, "Not a streak of cultivation within your body, but you had the courage to stand in front of a tiger Demonic Commander. Not bad, you are not bad."
"Huh?" Lin Feng was stunned and looked at Hong Ye with a shocked look.
The white hair of Hong Ye was blown up by the slight wind and he looked at Lin Feng, nodding his head and saying, "Even though you possess no cultivation, you looked big and strong and possess a gift. Since meeting you was fate, let me give you some good fortune."
"Follow me first, I would pass to you a mantra. How much you could comprehend would depend on your intelligence. If you had the characteristics to cultivate quickly, you could follow me in the future. My Azure Thunder Chariot lacks a charioteer."
Lin Feng, "......"
Hong Ye half-squinted his eyes and the corner of his lips showed a charming laughing intent. He stared at Lin Feng and said, "A good man has ambitions. I will also not try to keep you with me. If you have the intelligence and succeed in cultivating the mantra, I will guarantee you a way forward in the future."
Feeling the strong domineering attitude coming from Hong Ye, the stoned Lin Feng regained his awareness.
Lin Feng's lips twitched as he looked at Hong Ye who was feeling good about himself.
"Little friend, did your parents not teach you not to be over-domineering. That will only backfire on yourself instead of hurting the enemy."
Previously, the young fellow was filled with hatred towards Lin Feng and repeatedly spouted vulgarities, but now he appeared submissive and courteous before him. Lin Feng grinned and was ready to unceremoniously teach him a lesson how to be a proper person.
Who knew that at this point, the Azure Thunder Chariot resonated the voice of girl, "Hubby, that big cat is so beautiful!"
A charming and cute looking young lady sprawled beside the chariot and her big, sparkling eyes was admiring the Gengjin Tiger Demon that was on the ground.
Hong Ye heard the voice and momentarily left Lin Feng at the back of his head, smiling and saying, "Xiao Man you like it? If you like it, I can catch it for you."
The young lady who was called Xiao Man, laughed while hugging Hong Ye's arm, exclaiming, "I knew you were the best."
Hong Ye excitedly said, "Is there any reward for me?"
"Hmph!" Xiao Man slightly creased her small nose, hesitated for awhile, before shyly and timidly pecking Hong Ye on the lips, sarcastically saying, "Big baddie, are you satisfied now?"
Hong Ye laughed for a moment and was satisfied.
The Gengjin Tiger Demon who witnessed this scene was furious and sprinted towards Hong Ye without even giving consideration to the fact that he was at the doorstep of the Hundred Herbs Sect.
Hong Ye smirked and fought with the Gengjin Tiger Demon with his skills.
Lin Feng was left alone at one corner while speechlessly watching the scene in front of him unfold.
"Weird...definitely weird!"
A good part of the time passed before Lin Feng regained his awareness and decisively whipped out his Talent Analysis Device to analyze Hong Ye.
After clearly seeing the numbers, Lin Feng was stunned. A while had passed before his face showed a weird expression, laughing at both the Gengjin Tiger Demon and Hong Ye, who was fighting enthusiastically.
"Haha, are you building a harem? I wish that your penis will become sharper and the harem that you conquer will grow bigger and bigger!" Lin Feng said sarcastically, "Young man, you are too young and simple-minded! "
