Chapter 160 (1/2)
At the bottom of the volcano.
Lin Xun sat upright, cross-legged, with a quiet look on his handsome face.
Wisps of pure azure spiritual air shrouded him, which added an ethereal aura to Lin.
In his body, the turbulent spiritual power was like a tempestuous river. After continuous refinement by four spiritual vortexes, the spiritual power became clear as an azure stone, glittering with bright light blue faintly, and showing a rarely ethereal characteristic.
It meant that the quality of Lin Xun’s spiritual power was at an amazing level that could hardly be reached!
The stronger the spiritual power was, the firmer a practitioner’s foundation was.
And the higher the quality was, the more powerful the spiritual power would be in battle!
Lin Xun’s body emitted a rumbling noise due to tremendous spiritual power surging inside, like mountains in collision. His veins, acupoints and viscera were filled with surging spiritual power.
In his flesh, muscles, bones and skin, the strength formed a unique resonance with the spiritual Qi in the body.
Inside, Qi was the root of power.
The unity of spiritual Qi and robust body was the essence of Nature Insight & Spirit-devouring Scripture, which meant to refine and perfect spiritual Qi and one’s body at the same time!
Lin Xun did not notice that there was an amazing transformation inside and outside his body.
This transformation began with inner spiritual power…
In the term of cultivation, this change was called “Spirit Transformation”, namely the ninth level of Martial Realm!
…
Two more days passed quickly.
The atmosphere around this volcano was getting more and more tense. In the past two days, a lot of strong Water Barbarians came and stayed around the volcano.
At the same time, there were many figures of human practitioners too, hiding in different areas near the volcano, and many strong barbarians belonging to the other branches of the Voodoo-barbarian Tribe stayed.
Strangely, in such a situation, there was no fighting from beginning to end.
Both the human practitioners and strong Voodoo-barbarians seemed to be waiting for something to break the deadlock.
Everyone knew that a storm was brewing, and its result was bound to be unpredictable!
Shrizi became more and more agitated and knitted his eyebrows.
His wounds all healed up and his physical strength returned to its peak. But he was anxious since Lin Xun had not appeared yet. The growing tension around the volcano aggravated Shrizi’s worries.
Shrizi was not afraid of fighting. He was worried about whether there would be too many variables in the action of recapturing Amrita Saint Pearl in this situation.
“Anyway, tomorrow, if he doesn’t show up, I’ll enter the volcano in person!” Shrizi took a deep breath and a touch of determination flashed across his eyes.
…
“Why don’t they take any action since so many barbarians have assembled here?”
“They’re waiting. Maybe a treasure is about to come out of the volcano. Maybe there’s a secret that’s very important to Water Barbarians. Otherwise, they’ll never be so serious.”
“Treasure? Secret? Is it impossible?”
“Would it be a trap to lure us in and wipe us out?”
“It can’t be a trap. You see, the strong Water Barbarians guard the whole volcano. Even the Fire Barbarians, Wood Barbarians, Earth Barbarians and Gold Barbarians, who all belonged to Voodoo-barbarian Tribe, can’t get close to the volcano. How can this be a trap?”
“Anyway, the truth will surely be revealed soon. Maybe there will be a fierce battle at that time. We should be careful. If the situation is too dangerous, it’s better to get away early.”
Talks like this took place in every area near the volcano, where were hiding practitioners from the empire, trainees from Bloodthirsty Camp and soldiers from Reshahar Army.
No one could guess what the strong Water Barbarians were doing.
But everyone knew that this battle might break out at any moment!
…
When the night fell, Shrizi finally got a good news.
Quill Flamen brought a suit of “Frost Armor”! It was carved with mysterious frost barbarian tattoos, which could emit a chilly light. Wearing it, Shrizi could be completely unafraid of the invasion of the magma.
However, this “Frost Armor” was refined in a hurry. According to Quill Flamen, it could only last about half an hour in the molten lava.
“That’s enough. It won’t take half an hour to kill him if the human is not dead!” Shrizi put on the Frost Armor and he was in his high spirits.
Shrizi was a little impatient. He had never been so eager to kill a man after entering the Demon-cloud Ridge.
“Be careful,” Quill Flamen said beside Shrizi, his voice was hoarse, and his skinny and swarthy face looked ghastly pale.
In order to refine Frost Armor, Quill Flamen hardly ever shut his eyes these days. He expended all his energies on it, which made him exhausted physically and mentally.
“Thank you for your hard work. I will bring you the Amrita Saint Pearl!” Shrizi said earnestly.
Quill Flamen gritted his teeth and said, “Not only Amrita Saint Pearl, but also the human bastard. You must bring back his corpse. I will make a wine bowl with his head and drink his blood to counteract the anger and hatred in my heart!”
Shrizi smiled, revealing his white teeth, “That’s what I am going to do.”
“Really?”
Suddenly, a voice arose.
Shrizi and Quill Flamen turned their heads in unison. They saw a handsome figure appear on the edge of the crater.
It was Lin Xun!
Enemies’ eyes blazed with hate when they met. At this moment, Quill Flamen’s eyes widened, and a grim smile appeared on his old face. He shouted, “Small bastard, you finally show up! Kill him! Be quick! Go to kill him!”
