Chapter 978 I Won’t Need to Wait Too Long to Kill Him
False-kings were also known as the fake king stage.
This stage was used in reference to the cultivators who had not gained their dao roots upon getting to the Life Death King Stage.
The dao roots were also known as the roots of the great dao. They were mysterious and converged a cultivator’s foundation of the great dao, and it provided a place for the cultivator’s center of power to reside in.
If a king-level expert didn\'t have dao roots, then they were destined to be floating duckweed, drifting and fading away. They could only stop at the king-stage and were unable to search for longevity.
Having no dao roots was the difference between a false-king and a real king.
Old Monster Mo Xi was the best example of this. If he had dao roots, then unless his dao roots were destroyed, it’d be impossible to kill him that easily!
……
Old Monster Mo Xi had stepped into the king stage more than ten years ago. Perhaps it was because he was restricted by his own aptitude or perhaps it was because he didn’t have the time to set down dao roots, but regardless, that was why he had died so easily.
However, whenever he thought that he had merely slaughtered a false-king and used up over thirty thousand high grade aeth essences to do so, Lin Xun felt his heart throb with pain.
Crash~
Lin Xun put away the Four Divisions King Array, revealing Mo Xi’s beast corpse, which was about the size of a small mountain. It had been burnt to a crisp with heavily bruised flesh and disintegrating scales.
“We absolutely must make good use of the meat!” Lin Xun inwardly raged as he lifted Old Monster’s Mo Xi corpse onto his shoulders and turned around with Miss Le.
“Xiaohe, what do you want to eat tonight?”
“Barbecued meat!”
“Your request is too simple. We can pan fry, deep fry, boil, stir-fry, saute, stew, steam..let’s try it all. How about that?”
“Then…won’t we end up with too much food to finish?”
“Then we just need to take our time!”
On the way back, Lin Xun and Xiaohe were deep in discussion with each other.
When the other cultivators heard this, they were shocked out of their stupor and felt their scalps tingle. This savage youth was truly going to eat Old Monster Mo Xi?
Wasn’t he afraid of Heaven Axis Holy Land taking revenge on him?
After all, this was a king-level expert!
If word got out that Old Monster Mo Xi’s corpse had been partitioned into food, then all of Ancient Blue Province would erupt in an uproar.
When Lin Xun and the others finally disappeared in the distance, one cultivator finally quietly asked, “Does anyone know the origins of that youngster?”
“No idea. I’ve never heard of such a vicious and savage youngster in East Victory World before.”
“First he violently suppressed the leader of the younger generation of the Lighting Wing Clan, Xing Yitian, then he used a king-level restriction to trap and kill Old Monster Mo Xi. This kind of strategy…is definitely not something an ordinary heaven pride could do.”
“Didn’t you hear that little lass call him ‘Older Brother Lin Xun’ earlier? How come that name sounds a bit familiar to me?” someone wondered doubtfully.
Someone shouted involuntarily after they realized something, “Lin Xun? Wait, I know now. This youth is likely not a heaven pride from our East Victory World and instead came from the West Infinity World!”
“West Infinity World?”
“That’s right! Earlier, West Infinity World had their Dao Lantern Festival, so many people had their eyes on it. I believe Lin Xun was a young Demon God who had abruptly risen to fame there.”
“It’s a pity, we don’t have much information about it. After all, we are cultivators of the East Victory World and the West Infinity World is too far from us. I also know that Demon God Lin caused a giant ruckus in West Infinity World and is extremely dazzling among the younger generation…”
A few experts were discussing things amongst themselves. When this news came out, their hearts couldn’t help but tremble.
A youngster from the West Infinity World had actually defeated Xing Yitian and slaughtered Old Monster Mo Xi before even entering East Victory World. This was too savage and startling!
In the future, would this ferocious dragon cause even more chaos in East Victory World?
Following these few days, news regarding Lin Xun began to spread throughout East Victory World.
……
Four hours later, a treasure ship was slowly steering away from Chaos Star Beach and headed towards the Boundary River.
On the ship, Kou Xing set up a giant, black pot. Green Face opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of divine flame, causing the fire to soar and the water inside to boil.
Scarlet Silk and the others were preparing various dishes and condiments in a joyful and busy manner.
Tinkle!
Xiaohe picked up a knife and began hacking at Old Monster Mo Xi’s corpse. However, all she got for her efforts were some sparks. Although the beast’s scales were cracked, they were still quite solid and glittered with a dark green light. They were stronger than most treasures.
His carcass was enormous, with four hooves that resembled pillars and a head as large as a house. Even his tail resembled the thick leg of an elephant.
Sweat poured down Xiaohe’s face as she became gloomy. She had originally wanted to help, but soon discovered that with her current abilities, there was no way for her to help prepare this giant piece of meat.
“Let me do it.”
Lin Xun smiled as he walked over. He raised his sleeves and held the knife tightly as he began to carve pieces from the corpse of the king-level black rhino.
This beast’s meat was white and tender without a hint of fishiness to it. Instead, a sweet scent wafted from it and flowed into the air, causing everyone around it to drool with desire.
Lin Xun cut the meat into pieces while removing all of the bones. The bones would be used to boil a soup. He also cut the inner organs into small pieces as he was planning on stir-frying them.
Not even the blood was wasted. Lin Xun refined it into golden beast blood essence before storing it into a jade bottle.
As for the other parts, such as horn, teeth, scales, claws, and other things, they were all cleanly dissected and stored. They were all precious materials for making aeth tools. Even if he decided to sell them, he could get a great sum of money.
After working hard for almost half a day, Lin Xun finished preparing the meat and began to roast it. From time to time, he brushed on some sauces and other condiments.
Before long, the savory scent of meat permeated the air and the previously white meat began to become a glossy golden. Drops of fat fell into the fire, making a delicious sizzle sound.
“Smells so good!” Lin Xun also couldn\'t help from swallowing some pooled saliva.
It wasn’t just him. Even Miss Le had to surreptitiously swallow her drool. This was because this beast meat was quite special as it was the precious flesh of a king-level beast. Very few people in the world had the opportunity to taste something like this.
Furthermore, this kind of meat contained an unimaginable essence of cultivation, which was comparable to precious medicinal pills. Other than being incredibly tasty, cultivators could gain a lot of benefits from partaking it.
Strands of multicolored light lazily drifted as the roasted meat became even more golden and shiny. The scent of the condiments and meat mingled together and wafted around, tempting people to their peak.
Xiaohe was already drooling, and her eyes glimmered as she stared at the meat.
Finally, the meat was pretty much done. Lin Xun took the meat from the grill.
“I want a share now!”
Contrary to his expectations, the first one to step forward was Miss Le. Lin Xun was startled for a moment and then chuckled as he took out a portion for her.
A blush appeared on Miss Le’s beautiful face, but she still took the meat. She immediately ripped off a portion with her fair hands and stuffed the golden, greasy meat into her mouth.
“Ohhh…it’s too good!” Miss Le fell into a daze as her eyes began to shine. An infatuated look appeared on her face as her cheeks bulged before she swallowed.
Xiaohe and the others were about to flood the area with their drool as they resembled a pack of starving wolves. They stared blatantly, clearly impatient for their own taste.
Lin Xun gave everyone their own portion.
He also left some for himself. As soon as he took the first mouthful, he shuddered from head to toe. This meat…truly tasted too good!
He couldn’t care about anything else and began stuffing himself wholeheartedly, eating until his entire mouth ran with oil. His lips became shiny with grease. He was absorbing the cultivation essence contained within the meat, and it had a great benefit.
Momentarily, booms began to echo inside his body as his entire self was bathed in a glorious divine splendor.
Everyone else reacted in the same way as they gorged themselves joyfully.
This was the meat of a fierce beast at the king-stage, so it was extremely rare. Not only was the taste top-notch, but it was also as beneficial as partaking precious cultivation medicine.
After they finished the roasted meat, they began to eye the meat and bone stew in the pot. Then, they began using other cooking methods to process the remaining flesh. Some parts were stir fried, other parts steamed, then some parts were panfried…all sorts of methods were used and each type produced a different flavor and texture. Regardless, it was all incredibly delicious.
In the end, this feast of meat ended up being extremely satisfying.
Lin Xun actually took some sweet fermented wine out from his storage and drank alcohol while eating the meat. The ship was full of joyous laughter and giggles.
They had already passed the Chaos Star Beach. Before long, they would reach the border of the East Victory World.
For now, everyone was very relaxed, but they all knew this kind of peace wouldn’t last. Thus, they deliberately let go and enjoyed themselves with eating and drinking.
Finally, Kou Xing and the others all had bloated bellies as they blearily laid down to rest.
It wasn’t because they didn’t have large appetites. Instead, it was because the power contained with the black rhino meat was too vast, so they are unable to bear it easily.
After arriving at the shore, Kou Xing and the others needed to leave and find a way to make a living in the East Victory World. None of them planned to go back to West Infinity World. All of them were adventurers, and they pursued a different type of cultivation journey compared to other experts.
……
In the darkness of the deep night, the Boundary River’s waters roiled and gurgled, making noise that was unending.
Lin Xun belched wetly after eating his fill. His head was a bit fuzzy from the alcohol. Next to him was a bunch of clean beast bones and empty wine jars.
Xioahe was asleep on Miss Le’s lap. Her eyelashes fluttered as she slept. For a fourteen to fifteen year old girl, she was sleeping quite soundly.
“Once we get to the shore of the Ancient Blue Province, there will be someone there to pick me up and I will head back to my sect then. What about you? What are your plans?” Miss Le gathered some of her fine black hair behind her ear. Her face was beautiful and clear and had a soft and shiny luster.
“I need to understand the affairs of the East Victory World first, and after that…I’m going to go to the Omega Sword Sect,” Lin Xun replied idly, his dark eyes bright and tranquil.
“What are you going to do there?”
“Get revenge.”
“On whom?”
“Yun Qingbai.” Lin Xun didn’t bother to conceal it. He knew she would find out sooner or later in the future.
“Him?” Miss Le was startled, and her eyes grew wide. It was hard for her to stay calm.
This was because Yun Qingbai was the best sword cultivator of the younger generation in the Ancient Wasteland Domain! He also had too many brilliant titles and splendid bloody battles under his belt too!
“If you’re my friend, then don’t ask me why.” Lin Xun smiled. “I wouldn’t tell you even if you ask.”
Miss Le had a complicated expression on her face. After spending some time digesting this information, she was finally able to calm down again.
She gazed at Lin Xun, sighed, and softly said, “Alright, I won’t ask. But I need to remind you of something. Yun Qingbai is a peerless figure with great luck. Ten years ago he reached the pinnacle and is the undisputed genius of the younger generation, standing at the top of East Victory World.
“For the past ten years, hundreds of half-step kings have died under his sword. Furthermore, anyone who has challenged him died after suffering defeat.
“Now, everyone knows that Yun Qingbai is the undisputed king of those who are below the king stage. The most frightening thing is that such a mindset has been implanted in the heart of every cultivator in the East Victory World!”
When she got there, Miss Le took a deep breath before saying, “Promise me, if you truly need to take revenge, you must not do it now because…”
“Because the odds of success are quite bad, right?”
Lin Xun grinned as he picked up his wine cup to take a swig. Then he calmly said, “If my chances are uncertain, then I won’t go find him. I’ve already waited a long time, so it doesn’t matter to me if I need to wait a bit longer.”
His eyes flashed. “However, I have a hunch that I won’t need to wait too long before I can kill him!”
Everything was said calmly and concisely, but it felt like a bolt of lightning was coming down from the sky.
