A foul-smelling gale of Fierce Beast swept into the mountain forest.
As this Fierce Beast lunged into the forest, several tornadoes rose into the sky!
The tornadoes battered the forest, making the spiritual plants sway wildly before flattening them against the ground!
At that moment, Lin Tian's vines and leaves also lay flat against the ground, just like the other spiritual plants.
Roar!
A roar that resounded across tens of thousands of li burst from the Fierce Beast's mouth!
It was more earth-shaking than any thunderclap Lin Tian had ever heard.
With that wave of sound, fierce gales swept in every direction.
Across tens of thousands of li, wind blades sliced like sharp knives, snapping branches and leaves off every spiritual plant and towering tree.
For a time, the Fierce Beasts lurking in hidden corners scattered in every direction, while the Fierce Birds flew high into the sky, staring down at the forest in terror!
The great unity golden immortal realm.
Lin Tian was profoundly shaken.
This was the first time he had encountered a Fierce Beast at or above the Great Unity Golden Immortal realm in the hundreds of thousands of years since he had arrived in the Primordial World.
Taking down a Fierce Beast in the Great Unity Golden Immortal realm would indeed be rather difficult.
Still, rooted tens of thousands of li away from this Fierce Beast, which measured over a hundred thousand zhang, Lin Tian was actually quite calm.
No matter how one looked at it, even if his cultivation was only at the golden immortal peak-
He possessed numerous divine abilities and spiritual treasures.
Challenging a dim-witted Fierce Beast in the Great Unity Golden Immortal realm despite the difference in cultivation was merely a basic feat for him.
Besides, he was hidden in the shadows rather than exposed in the open. He only needed to wait for his chance; with the right opportunity, he could certainly take this Fierce Beast down.
Meanwhile, Lin Tian discovered that the Fierce Beast proclaiming its dominion over the forest was actually a golden python over a hundred thousand zhang long.
Beneath its belly, the beginnings of claws had already emerged.
A python growing claws-it's about to transform into a flood dragon.
Lin Tian thought to himself.
He already had an idea of how to deal with this Fierce Beast that measured over a hundred thousand zhang.
Facing it head-on is out of the question. The only workable approach is a sneak attack...
Just then, the enormous golden python shot into Lin Tian's territory in an instant, as swift as lightning!
Rumble!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The sounds of something tearing through the air rang out in rapid succession!
At the same time, countless vines gleaming with a faint, sharp light surged out of the ground!
The green vines erupted from the soil so quickly that they compressed the air and sent it trembling!
As the vines shot forth, thunderous sonic booms reverberated through the mountain forest.
"Green Vine Bind-kill!"
Lin Tian controlled the green vines bursting from underground, forming a cage that enclosed all eight directions!
In an instant, he trapped the golden python within that cage of green vines.
And this golden python, which had been smugly proclaiming its dominion over the mountain forest and flaunting its might before the Fierce Beasts of the Primordial World in every direction...
It had truly never expected that, right after showing off, these green vines of unknown origin would slap it in the face.
Overcome with shock-
The golden python immediately tried to unleash its innate divine ability and turn the tables on these green vines of unknown origin.
But just as it was about to activate its innate divine ability-
Countless green vines under Lin Tian's control shot out sharp barbs with a succession of piercing whistles!
Every sharp barb sank deep into the golden python's body, piercing all its internal organs.
Rumble!
Rumble!
In mere moments-
The golden python, which had reared up to a height of over a hundred thousand zhang, toppled like a golden mountain falling and a jade pillar collapsing, crashing into the forest!
It lay across the mountain forest like a mountain range.
The sight shocked the Fierce Beasts and Fierce Birds watching from all around so badly that they even forgot to flee.
Hidden tens of thousands of li away, Lin Tian had been controlling the green vines to bind and kill the golden python.
When the golden python collapsed into the forest-
He immediately activated his divine ability, Spatial Traversal, and flashed before its mountain-like body.
At the same time-
His twelve green leaves swayed ceaselessly upon his body.
As they swayed, the green leaves released streaks of incomparably sharp, cold light.
The cold light flashed.
At once, it stirred up sharp blades capable of cutting through anything.
The golden python had not yet fully died. When Lin Tian appeared before it and activated those twelve green leaves, sending tens of thousands of wind blades so sharp they chilled its heart flying toward it...
The golden python, which had intended to perform Liberation by Violence on its body and send its primordial spirit fleeing far away, immediately plunged into utter despair.
Even as it despaired, it discovered that its mountain-like body, over a hundred thousand zhang long, had already been struck by the tens of thousands of wind blades released by the twelve green leaves.
It was sliced into neat chunks of meat that piled up in the forest.
At the same time-
The instant the twelve green leaves finished slicing up the golden python's entire body, Lin Tian's countless green vines, which had already retracted into the soil-
Stretched out of the ground like tentacles!
Each green vine curled around a chunk of golden python meat cut to precisely the same size, then withdrew into the depths of the earth.
The system's notification sounded in Lin Tian's mind:
Golden python of the Primordial World devoured. Evolution points +8,000.
Lin Tian was quite satisfied with this feast.
However, even after devouring this golden python whose cultivation had reached the great unity golden immortal realm-
Lin Tian still could not break through in cultivation.
After all, to break through, he had to gather three kinds of origin.
Without all three origins, no matter how many Fierce Beasts in the Great Unity Golden Immortal realm he devoured, he could only gain evolution points, not improve his innate foundation.
At that thought, Lin Tian sighed inwardly and withdrew the countless green vines hidden deep underground.
Then his true body appeared in the mountain forest, and all his green vines transformed into two legs.
Lin Tian then strode through the forest with measured steps, swaggering openly.
Lin Tian was only at the Golden Immortal peak at this point. With him openly showing himself in the Primordial World, countless Fierce Beasts were naturally eager to try their luck against him.
Several thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
Over those several thousand years-
Lin Tian walked through this mountain forest that had already become his domain.
At first, different Fierce Beasts came looking to eat him almost every day, only to be devoured by Lin Tian one after another.
But after several thousand years-
Those Fierce Beasts went from appearing every day to only one or two showing up every few months.
Eventually, a hundred years would pass before one or two appeared within tens of thousands of li.
And whenever they appeared, the moment they caught Lin Tian's scent, every one of those Fierce Beasts of the Primordial World fled along whatever path it could find.
One day-
Lin Tian was passing through a certain place.
He suddenly sensed a formation overflowing with murderous aura.
No Fierce Beast had dared enter the tens of thousands of li around Lin Tian for nearly a hundred years, and he had grown painfully stifled.
The moment he sensed that towering murderous aura, he immediately rushed toward the formation.
An instant later-
Countless bolts of lightning descended upon the space above that killing formation!
Lin Tian stood ten thousand li away from the formation, gazing at it from afar.
Azure Thunder rained down from beyond the Nine Heavens.
Azure Thunder relentlessly bombarded the formation, as though something that defied heaven existed within it!
Roar!
At the same time, roars that struck terror into all living beings rang out from within the formation.
After those roars sounded, the lightning descending from the sky became even more terrifying and thicker, as though it meant to shatter heaven and earth throughout the region!
Countless bolts of lightning and fierce gales swept in every direction.
Yet Lin Tian merely stood calmly ten thousand li away.
He put down roots at a spot exactly twenty thousand li from the formation and quietly watched events unfold.
A sudden flash of intuition told him that an opportunity meant for him definitely lay within that formation.
Lin Tian waited there for tens of thousands of years.
Tens of thousands of years later-
The heavenly tribulation azure lightning descending from the sky was gradually dissipating.
At the center of Azure Thunder's relentless bombardment, amid the shattered formation, a peculiar little beast came into Lin Tian's view.
Lin Tian found it utterly strange. Apart from a red mark between its brows that resembled a millstone, this little beast radiated nothing but a adorably innocent air. How could it have caused upheaval in heaven and earth for tens of thousands of years and brought down nine heavens azure lightning?
Steady and cautious as he was, a thought arose in Lin Tian's mind: this seemingly harmless little beast was undoubtedly bound to the Heavenly Dao by immense karmic entanglements.
That being the case, he certainly could not provoke this little beast lightly, lest he provoke the Heavenly Dao.
He quietly buried his green vines underground.
In an instant, they extended to the center of the thunderbolts descending from the Nine Heavens.
Then he began absorbing the power of the lightning.
As he absorbed it, system notifications continually sounded in Lin Tian's sea of consciousness:
One strand of lightning power devoured. Evolution points +6,000. One strand of lightning power devoured. Evolution points +8,000.
The system's notifications kept sounding in Lin Tian's mind.
Finally, when he had absorbed all the nine heavens azure lightning within those tens of thousands of li, the system's notification sounded again:
Congratulations. You have obtained one thunder origin.
Lin Tian immediately fell into wild delight!
