Chapter 324: 324, [Grim Reaper]

At a specific place shrouded by toxic fog above Lost Forest.

A monster, around ten meters long and resembling a giant mantis, was flying in the air, with a man who had a feminine appearance sitting on it.

His face bore an unhealthy pale look, yet his lips were very rosy, even to the point of being bright red.

His lips were thin, his eyes cold, giving off an indifferent vibe.

This individual was the foreign race man, Yin Tian.

He had been in the poisonous fog of Lost Forest for three full days and nights now.

“According to current intelligence, Lu Xun is a Sword Cultivator, the first thing he did after entering the West State was to visit the Monument of West State. He even initiated the monument’s inheritance and acquired something from it.”

“The Monument of West State is considered holy by sword cultivators, so as a Sword Cultivator who has received the inheritance, Lu Xun must pay another visit to the monument before leaving the West State, to show respect.”

“So, if he is to leave West State, he would undoubtedly fly in the direction of Lost Forest.”

This was Yin Tian’s speculation.

Though it deviated slightly from the actual situation, the end result was spot on.

As for how he calculated the approximate time Lu Xun would leave West State?

The reason was that Lu Xun was accompanied by Ji Li.

The internal promotion examination of the Demon Sect was approaching and Ji Li had to attend it. So, he estimated Lu Xun’s return to the Demon Sect from there.

A meticulous calculation, barely any room for error.

Unless… Lu Xun let the girl go back to the sect by herself and continued to stay in West State.

If that’s the case, Yin Tian would have to wait here a little longer.

But it didn’t matter, he had plenty of patience.

“You only have yourself to blame for being too famous. Your every move quickly becomes known throughout the world, there is no need for additional investigations,” Yin Tian thought to himself.

Although there were many cultivators who came to adventure and look for herbs in the Lost Forest, it definitely could not compare with the populated West State.

Moreover, with his power, as long as he didn’t encounter a Great Cultivator at or above the eighth realm, dealing with one Lu Xun should not be a big problem.

As such, the Lost Forest was an excellent place to take action.

At this moment, Yin Tian was holding a crystal-like object in his hand, closing his eyes and sensing his surroundings.

Within the crystal, black fog-like energy was swirling around. It helped to extend his Divine Sense, allowing him to better perceive everything around him and forming a slightly vague image in his mind.

Soon, Yin Tian sensed a flying paper crane in the air, along with the man leading the way on the crane.

The black robes, the sword sheath, and the impeccable looks…

Lu Xun was too easy to recognize.

“I originally thought the rumors exaggerated, but he really is exceptionally handsome.” Yin Tian stuck out his tongue, licked his red lips.

“Oh, there’s even a cultivator at the sixth level?”

“What a pity, he’s running into me,” he mused.

However, the next moment, a strange scene occurred.

For some unknown reason, Lu Xun suddenly turned around and started rapidly flying towards West State!

“What’s going on?” Yin Tian was baffled.

The scene was reminiscent of rushing back home after realizing something was forgotten upon stepping out.

Yin Tian dared not chase after him towards West State.

Bearing in mind that West State was the One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain areas, with this territory silently watched over by the Great Cultivators of the two major Sword Sects.

He was too strong; if he appeared in West State, he would be noticed instantly.

After all, the two major Sword Sects were not weak, having several practitioners at the seventh or even the eighth level.

If he were to attack Lu Xun within the borders of West State, he’d likely come under attack from the two major Sword Sects.

It would definitely not be safer than in Lost Forest.

“Stop him,” Yin Tian immediately made a decision.

He took out a chessboard-like object from his bosom, tossed it up in the air.

An illusion began to spread around to seal the surroundings.

“You can’t escape,” he patted the mantis-like creature beneath him and started to rapidly fly towards where Lu Xun was headed.

Lu Xun was manipulating the paper crane, flying towards West State at top speed.
