At first, Lin Xuan was a bit surprised, but with a little thought, he understood the truth. Everyone wanted the Heavenly Dust Pill. So the cultivators who came here were naturally full of hostility.

At this moment, there is no distinction between righteousness and evil. It was simply the strong eating the weak, so the chances of obtaining Spirit Medicine were even greater.

So being singled out, group fights, sneak attacks, all kinds of fighting methods, they’d do anything.

“Idiots!”

Lin Xuan sneered coldly, but he also understood that this environment was really sinister, and he decided to be even more cautious. He didn’t want to be involved in unnecessary battles.

Perhaps it was good luck, or maybe it was the effect of hiding his cultivation base. In short, Lin Xuan moved along the way and did not meet anyone who tried to rob him.

In this way, he flew for a long time without encountering any danger, and the sun had gradually set. Lin Xuan looked at the scene in front of him, and stopped his flight, he flipped his hand, taking out a Jade Slip with the map of Kuiyin Mountain. Sinking his Spiritual Sense into it.

After a while, Lin Xuan flicked his sleeve and put the Jade Slip away. His face showed a strange expression and he looked up at a mountain not far away.

According to the Jade slip, this mountain was the dividing line, and further south, one would enter a place that has not yet been explored by cultivators.

Naturally, Lin Xuan would not go deep into it with stupidity, as there were even third-level Spirit Beasts. Not to mention himself, even a Core Formation Stage Expert. If he went in, he may never come out.

The Sky Fiend Demon Lord, did he escape there?!

Lin Xuan was thinking about it, when suddenly, his expression changed, and he then flew towards a place where he sensed some people.

Moments later, Lin Xuan came to a clearing, and there were hundreds of people there. Among them, there were no disciples of the Spirit Condensation Stage, all the cultivators had at least succeeded in their Foundation Establishment. Lin Xuan felt several extremely powerful Spiritual Senses. It seemed that even experts of the Core Formation Stage were also mixed in.

So Lin Xuan no longer hid his cultivation base. After all, he’d only attract attention at the Spirit Condensation Stage.

Lin Xuan found that many people were injured, it seemed that they had all experienced bloody battles, but they were able to fight their way here. They must have extraordinary means.

The air seems to be solidified. Because of the Heavenly Dust Pill, these cultivators who gathered together were naturally not friendly and were full of hostility. The present situation is like dry firewood, requiring only a tiny spark to ignite. Which may trigger a big fight.

As can be seen from their clothing, these hundreds of cultivators all belong to more than a dozen forces, if they really start a fight. It would be a bloody battle.

They also noticed Lin Xuan, but only took a glance. A single rogue cultivator, not much of a threat.

Lin Xuan was not angry but delighted with the other’s contempt. The more unobtrusive this situation is, the more opportunities there were to fish in troubled waters.

He did not fly to the front but stood on the sidelines.

“Strange, how come they’re all second-rate Sects?!”

Lin Xuan was calm on the surface, but his heart was secretly stunned. Yesterday he even killed some disciples of Blue Cloud Mountain. But none of the Big Three have appeared.

Not only just the Righteous Path, the Demonic Dao’s biggest three factions, Extreme Demon Cave, Ghost Valley, and Yin Spirit Cult also did not come.

Lin Xuan frowned, he didn’t believe that the biggest forces in You Prefecture were not interested in the Heavenly Dust Pill.

It stands to reason that their interest should be greater. Because in these sects, there’s no shortage of Core Formation Stage Experts. With the Heavenly Dust Pill, one will have a high chance of advancing to the Nascent Soul period.

Such an opportunity. There was really no reason to miss it!

Lin Xuan thought about it in his head, then quietly withdrew into a certain distance, before anyone noticed, he found a hidden place and secretly hid in it.

He then released his Spiritual Sense and scanned for any movement around him.

But just moments later, Lin Xuan’s face showed a strange expression.

Then, without hesitating, he took out a Hidden Spirit Pill and swallowed it. If he didn’t mistake it, there are actually still two groups of cultivators hidden around, and each group has dozens of people.

And their cultivation base is surprisingly high. Each group actually has seven or eight Core Formation Stage Experts. Fortunately, they all had their attention on the clearing, and nobody discovered him.

Lin Xuan screamed for luck and quickly reduced his aura.

Who are these people? Fishermen hunting for the fish, after they fight among themselves? Lin Xuan secretly guessed in his heart, but no longer dared to investigate with his Spiritual Sense.

It seems that the birth of the Heavenly Dust Pill, involved the major forces of the two paths, and the waters are getting muddier and muddier.

At this moment, there was a burst of shouting and cursing in front of him, only to see a red light flashing, and a big head being cut off.

“Lan Yantian, how dare you kill someone here!” An angry woman’s voice was heard.

“Hmph, so what if I killed someone, this guy was rude to this old man in Great Ape City last time. He should’ve died long ago, but that time he was lucky enough to escape, and I let him live a little longer.”

“Why, Geng Sanniang, do you want to avenge your husband?”

“I …The woman was full of grief and indignation, but thinking about the other party’s cultivation base and the backing behind him, her face showed a hint of fear.

When the old man saw it, his expression became even more arrogant, and he glanced at the young woman with an obscene look: “Geng Sanniang, your cowardly husband is dead, it’s better to follow me from now on, it will be a great benefit for your cultivation.”

“Brother!” The young woman has not yet opened her mouth. But a big man who was more than two meters tall came next to her, and angrily said, “Lan Yantian, don’t be arrogant, although your Water Dragon Sect is big, we from the Righteous Glacier are not easy to be messed around with. You killed my brother and even wanted his widow, you’re going too far!”

“Hmph, the Righteous Glacier, you all are just a group of lonely ghosts, Geng Sanniang, you have to think about it, don’t follow this group of reckless people and regret it when the time comes.”

He waved his hand as he said that, and the Water Dragon Sect cultivators behind him surrounded the nine rogue cultivators including the young woman. The two sides already displayed their Spirit Tools and were on the verge of war.
