It was not that Shi Yuanzhen had not “died” before. It was all the Substitution Seal that had taken effect, saving him from this calamity.
Thus, he clearly knew what kind of process this was.
But this time was different. His mind was really crumbling.
Not good, he was done for!
How was this possible?
He had the Substitution Seal.
Could it be that it was the Saint of the clan that was screwing him over?
Boom! The destructive power swept over him, and he no longer had the ability to think. He was completely dead.
Ling Han waited slightly, but did not discover that Shi Yuanzhen had “revived” – in truth, his head had already exploded, so how could he possibly come back to life?
As expected, the Destructive Energy possessed the ability to kill, rendering even Substitution Seal useless.
“Thank you.” At this moment, the green-robed man and the others all walked over, expressing their gratitude towards Ling Han.
Ling Han nodded, “I did it casually.”
“It was a casual action on your part, sir, but to us, it is a debt of gratitude for saving our lives.” The green-robed man seemed to have the highest status, and it was he who answered all the questions.
Ling Han merely smiled. If you guys want to be grateful, then be grateful.
Yi?
He discovered that these four people were all staring at him. More precisely, they were staring at the Evolution Fruit in his hand.
“Do you guys want me to return this thing to you?” he asked with a smile.
“That would naturally be good.” The green-robed man swallowed, and seemed to feel that this was inappropriate to say. The other had just saved their lives, so he hurriedly added, “Of course, if Benefactor needs it, you can take it as you like.”
“Alright, then I won’t be reserved.” Ling Han put the Evolution Fruit away.
Yi, are you not going to be reserved?
The green-robed man had planned it out very well. As long as Ling Han was the slightest bit polite, he would take back the Evolution Fruit. After all, the Evolution Fruit was too valuable, but it could help them advance into the Fifth Form. This meant that they would have a chance to become great Sect Master elites.
But Ling Han was really too unreserved. He directly put away the Evolution Fruit, leaving him completely at a loss for words.
Ling Han chuckled. Playing tricks in front of him? How naive.
He activated the Star Steps, and xiu, he instantly disappeared from sight.
“Sigh!” The four young people all sighed. They had finally found an Evolution Fruit after much difficulty, and it was gone just like that.
“Let’s just search again. In any case, there’s still a long time.”
“En!”
They all nodded. Just as they were about to leave, weng, a terrifying aura assaulted them, making them feel a little suffocated.
A figure appeared, his aura astonishing. However, his forehead was too protruding, like a bird’s beak.
“Puchi!” The red-clothed woman instantly laughed, but when she realized that this was not good, she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand again.
Baili Yun looked towards that woman, a cold light interwoven in his eyes.
The red-clothed woman only felt a pain in her mind, and then fell down loudly. “Junior Sister!” The green-robed man and the others hurriedly went to help her up, yet shockingly discovered that the red-clothed woman’s vitality had completely disappeared. “You, you, you, were you the one who did it?” The three of them all looked angrily at Baili
Yun.
“A mere ant dares to shout in front of me?” Baili Yun humphed, his eyes sharp, and killing intent surged. Peng, peng, peng! The green-robed man and the others all fell to the ground, unable to stand back up.
He looked at Shi Yuanzhen’s corpse not far away, and couldn’t help but frown slightly. “This is the Imperial Son of the Shi Clan, right? I’ve seen him once, and I remember his aura.”
“Hehe, this Ling Han is really outrageously bold. He even dares to kill an Imperial Son!”
“If I kill this despicable brat, not only will I be able to obtain the treasures on him, I will also be able to ask for a favor from the Shi Clan. Hehe, killing two birds with one stone.”
“Yi?”
He examined Shi Yuanzhen’s corpse, and his expression instantly became solemn.
“The Substitution Seal is still here.”
“How is this possible!”
He was stunned. The Substitution Seal had not cracked yet, which meant that he had not expended all his uses of the Substitution Seal. Then, how had Shi Yuanzhen died?
After a long while, he finally murmured, “I heard the Saints of my clan coincidentally mention that the Substitution Seal is indeed not perfect. As long as the strength of the person who made it is above that of the Saint that created the Substitution Seal, then the Substitution Seal would not be effective.”
“The Substitution Seal is equivalent to a Saint moving to save someone’s life. However, if the opponent’s strength surpasses the Saint’s, it’s naturally impossible to save them.”
“The question is, how could that brat, Ling Han, possibly possess strength that surpasses Saints?”
“Could it be… that he has grasped some kind of super technique, and in terms of quality, it has even surpassed Saint-level?”
“Could it be that this is the secret to that brat’s rise in power?”
“That’s right. If he had not grasped Emperor-level techniques, how could he have surpassed
an Imperial Son?”
Thinking of this, he was naturally even more tempted. If he could capture Ling Han, his gains could possibly exceed his imagination.
Baili Yun’s heart burned with desire. He took out a copper coin and tossed it over. After predicting the direction of Ling Han’s whereabouts, he immediately set off in pursuit.
…
Ling Han naturally would not know what had happened after he had left, and would not have foreseen that Baili Yun would be so deranged, to make a move on someone unrelated to him.
-To the Imperial Clan, the others were only ants. If they were trampled to death, so be it. What need was there for them to be concerned?
He took out the Evolution Fruit, washed it slightly, and began to eat.
This was a familiar taste, and it was just as delicious.
After eating this Evolution Fruit and refining the medicinal effects, Ling Han’s sixth clay fetus
also successfully evolved to Stone Fetus.
“I’m still short of three Evolution Fruits.”
Ling Han shuttled back and forth on the Island of the Sky, searching everywhere for the
Evolution Fruit.
Time slowly passed, and Baili Yun caught up to him a few more times. However, since he had
grasped the Star Steps, he was naturally unscathed. In fact, he even gave Baili Yun a few surprises, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
Baili Yun knew that Ling Han possessed a technique that rendered the Substitution Seal ineffective. As long as he was killed once, he would really be done for.
One fruit, two fruits, three fruits… The Island of the Sky was massive, and there were also a considerable number of Evolution Fruits. However, the majority of them grew in the harsh mountains and rivers, and there was a natural barrier formed by Regulations. If one wanted to cross this barrier, they would have to pay an exorbitant price.
However, this was no big deal for Ling Han. He had grasped the Star Steps, and as long as there were ley lines nearby, he could easily reach them. What barrier? In his eyes, they were completely non-existent.
This naturally allowed him to reap a great harvest – when others sought out the Evolution Fruit, obtaining one would be considered lucky. Furthermore, it was not to be used to increase one’s cultivation level, because there were other means to increase one’s cultivation level, but if one wanted to break through the limit and create the fifth form, unless one himself was incredibly freakish, he could only depend on the Evolution Fruit.
But what about Ling Han? Of course, it was the other way around.
The seventh Stone Fetus, the eighth Stone Fetus… done!
After Ling Han had entered the Island of the Sky for a year, his cultivation level was already
close to the limit of the second form. He was only left with one last clay fetus that had not
completed its evolution.
“I’m still short of one Evolution Fruit,” Ling Han murmured. With another Evolution Fruit, he would be able to complete cultivating the second form and begin breaking through to the
third form.
In order not to let Baili Yun discover any clues, Ling Han had even suppressed the urge to ambush him these days. This was to prevent Baili Yun from sensing that he was about to advance into the Third Form, realize there would be a change in the comparison of strength between them, and choose to no longer pursue him.
“At that time, it would be my turn to become the hunter,” he smiled faintly.
