"Holy Maiden, was that the Kui Bull Dharma Idol just now?"

Su Zheshan looked at the golden sun a hundred li away, somewhat at a loss for words.

Earlier, the sudden appearance of a Bi Fang Dharma Idol between heaven and earth had already shaken her.

Then an even more terrifying Kui Bull Dharma Idol had appeared.

"According to legend, the Li Clan of Shen King City has an ancient Bi Fang. The person who summoned the Bi Fang Dharma Idol should be a member of the Li Clan."

The "fake Zhenwu" wearing the Zhenwu Mask spoke quietly.

"Yes. According to the information we found, someone from the Li Clan of Shen King City is in Su Rou's team."

Su Zheshan hurriedly replied.

"In that case, Su Rou's team must have run into Extreme Realm's Zhenwu."

The fake Zhenwu spoke with a charming chuckle.

Su Zheshan's beautiful eyes instantly widened.

"Holy Maiden, are you saying Zhenwu summoned that Kui Bull Dharma Idol?"

"Mm. I know Zhenwu obtained Kui Bull essence blood, but judging by that Dharma Idol, he must have used some means to refine the Kui Bull essence blood into a Kui Bull essence soul."

The fake Zhenwu rubbed his chin in thought.

"There are treasures in this world that can refine essence blood into an essence soul?"

Su Zheshan was shocked, her beautiful eyes flickering.

"Just because the world doesn't have them doesn't mean Extreme Realm doesn't."

The fake Zhenwu spoke with a soft laugh.

"In that case, this Zhenwu from Extreme Realm, who is posing as Wenren Zhen, is our greatest enemy."

Su Zheshan spoke emphatically, committing Zhenwu to memory.

"He should be. He's cold and detached. He's certainly worth guarding against."

The fake Zhenwu spoke, feeling a slight headache.

Then a feather glowing with divine light appeared in his hand.

"The sensation is getting stronger. The phoenix essence blood should be nearby."

He murmured, a little delight in his voice.

Meanwhile.

The Kui Bull Dharma Idol gradually dissipated.

Ten li away, Lin Tian suddenly felt the blood Qi in his body drain away, nearly stumbling to the ground.

He took out and swallowed a pill that replenished Spiritual Qi.

Then Lin Tian sat cross-legged on a tree and began recuperating.

This battle.

Had actually left Lin Tian somewhat disappointed.

When the Kui Bull Dharma Idol appeared, those people had fled without a second thought.

It made Lin Tian feel as though he had thrown a heavy punch into cotton.

After a whole battle, he had only killed four people.

That was nowhere near enough to advance to Void Insight.

Then Lin Tian stirred his intent slightly.

Ten spatial rings appeared in his hand.

The owners of these spatial rings were now dead.

These spatial rings had become ownerless objects.

Lin Tian tried probing a spatial ring with his intent.

Several bottles of pills appeared in his hand.

"Rejuvenation Pills, Yang-Boosting Pills?"

Looking at the labels on two jade bottles, Lin Tian threw both bottles away.

The remaining bottles contained pills for replenishing the body's Spiritual Qi and blood Qi, as well as healing pills.

Without further thought, Lin Tian swallowed a pill that replenished blood Qi.

The appearance of the last bottle brought a little delight to Lin Tian's face.

"A Cloud Spirit Pill!"

He opened the jade bottle. Inside lay a single Cloud Spirit Pill.

Cloud Spirit Pills strengthened one's physique. Previously, he had taken the two Cloud Spirit Pills Ziwei had given him, along with a low-grade spirit herb.

Lin Tian's strength had broken through to the strength of one dragon.

He put the other bottles of pills into his own spatial ring.

Lin Tian resumed his inspection.

"Rejuvenation Pills, the Jade Fragrance Erotic Picture Album."

Lin Tian frowned. This ring belonged to Li Xin.

Lin Tian somewhat understood why Li Xin had been troubled by that pink gas.

He threw away the bottle of pills and the picture album.

Lin Tian continued searching.

A Soul Palace Pill. Su Nan must have given him this.

A sword case containing over a dozen swords.

Four bottles of healing pills.

And a bead the size of a fist.

Lin Tian picked up the bead and held it before his eyes.

He froze instantly.

Images suddenly appeared inside the bead.

A man and a woman were locked in a strenuous struggle.

Live long enough, and you saw everything.

This world actually had things like this too.

Over a dozen spirit stones radiating Spiritual Qi. These were necessities for other cultivators, but they were of little use to Lin Tian.

Over a dozen bottles of liquor. Lin Tian did not usually drink much.

The last item was a book.

"True Explanation of Sword Intent"!

Lin Tian's pupils contracted, and he opened the book.

There was only one sentence on the first page.

[Written by sword cultivator Li Xin]

Somewhat disappointed, Lin Tian turned to the next page.

There was also only one sentence.

[Sword intent is sword momentum]

The second page.

[When sword momentum has a direction, it becomes sword intent.]

The third page.

[After a night of spring wind, I watched the rain throughout the night and comprehended spring rain sword intent.]

Everything after that was blank.

"When sword momentum has a direction, it becomes sword intent."

Lin Tian mulled over those words and gained some ideas.

Then Lin Tian opened all the other spatial rings.

He found another two Soul Palace Pills.

A low-grade palm martial technique.

Three low-grade weapon martial techniques.

Some clothes.

Food and water.

Some "erotic picture albums," erotic novels, and famous unofficial histories.

Over a hundred high-grade spirit stones.

None of these were useful to Lin Tian.

But they could be exchanged for money.

What was useful to Lin Tian.

Were three Cloud Spirit Pills.

A high-grade earth-tier spirit herb.

And a large pile of healing pills.

Four pills for increasing cultivation.

When Lin Tian opened the last spatial ring.

The spatial ring belonging to the person who had summoned the Bi Fang essence blood.

Treasure light instantly spilled out, and an ancient presence rushed into his nose.

It was a drop of essence blood.

Flames lay within the essence blood.

"Bi Fang essence blood."

Lin Tian's brows rose slightly.

Last time, it had taken three Advancement Jade Talismans to advance over a dozen drops of Kui Bull essence blood into a Kui Bull essence soul.

There was only a single drop here.

How many jade talismans would it take to advance it into a Bi Fang essence soul?

Lin Tian abandoned the idea of taking this drop of essence blood back.

A single drop of Bi Fang essence blood was actually of little use.

But like Kui Bull essence blood, it could increase one's strength and blood Qi.

It could also grant some of the ferocious beast's own traits.

"Having it is better than having nothing."

Lin Tian murmured, continuing to search through this last spatial ring.

"Two Cloud Spirit Pills!"

Lin Tian's pupils contracted.

He had not expected that last person to be so loaded.

But why had he kept these pills?

Wouldn't taking them have been better?

Lin Tian suddenly recalled what that body cultivator had said earlier.

Killing one person for Su Rou would earn two Cloud Spirit Pills.

It seemed Su Rou was the loaded one.

He put these things into his spatial ring.

Lin Tian changed his clothes.

He prepared to find somewhere more secluded to cultivate.

"Big shot!"

Ziwei's voice rang out, and Lin Tian looked over.

Ziwei was flying toward him on a flame formation disc.

Glancing at Ziwei, Lin Tian had never expected him to successfully intercept Qi Liancheng anyway.

As for this teammate of his, Lin Tian felt he simply could not judge him.

"I'm going to find somewhere to cultivate."

Lin Tian spoke calmly.

Ziwei came to Lin Tian's side with a sheepish smile.

"Sure, I'll stand guard for you, big shot."

Lin Tian paused slightly, then spoke softly:

"There's something I don't quite understand. What exactly does 'big shot' mean?"

Ziwei froze, then hurriedly said:

"That term has been around a long time. I heard it from my family too. It's just a respectful term for someone strong."

Lin Tian nodded, then glanced at this woman, whose looks were not particularly outstanding, and said:

"You said you're a woman?"

Ziwei's expression stiffened, and then he nodded.

"I've always disguised myself as a man, but for this mission, Extreme Realm directly changed both our appearances without changing my sex. I thought you must have guessed back then."

Ziwei dismissed the flame disc and walked shoulder to shoulder with Lin Tian.

"I didn't guess back then."

Lin Tian spoke calmly, and Ziwei instantly gave an awkward smile.

She really wanted to say that, with Lin Tian's personality, it was not that he had failed to guess, but that he simply did not care.

Recalling the strength Lin Tian had unleashed earlier.

Ziwei still felt his heart pound with fear.

If Zhenwu hadn't been her teammate.

Ziwei would already have been frantically searching for somewhere to hide.

It was too terrifying.

Back in the Sword Capital, Zhenwu had only struck her as someone who could take a beating and dish one out.

But today, he had utterly and completely shocked Ziwei.
