Lin An dispelled the formation.
Looking at the scene before him, Lin An had to admit that he had underestimated the power of the Thundercloud All-Slaying Formation.
After all, he had also mastered the art of formations to a perfect level, and the formation he used consisted of thirty-six Diamond Tier puppets, which even Diamond Late Stage Sin Beast would find difficult to withstand.
"Dispose of the body."
As soon as Lin An finished speaking, the thirty-six puppets put away their array flags, took out their long swords, and began to deal with the corpses in front of them.
The puppets acted swiftly; in less than an hour, all the valuable items from the four thousand corpses of the Sin Beast had been collected.
The most valuable items were the Gold-Devouring Spider's Sin Beast core and its eight jewel-like eyes.
"These eight eyes are good material; they can be used to make puppets."
These eight eyes all have the effect of creating illusions, and coincidentally, there is a type of puppet in the Puppet Compendium called the Illusion Puppet.
"If we were to use eight more Illusion Puppet to set up an illusion array, the effect would likely be several times greater."
Lin An planned to test the effect later, so he threw out the unrefined corpse of the Sin Beast from the Spirit-Devouring Ring.
Then he collected the corpse of the Gold-Devouring Spider, and also found the corpses of more than thirty Platinum Ninth Grade and more than sixty Platinum Eighth Grade Sin Beast.
After collecting all the materials gathered by the puppet, the storage ring was about one-third full.
"I originally wanted to create a personal space for the puppets, but if I did, these puppets wouldn't be able to be stored in my storage ring."
Lin An activated the token, and a map appeared before him.
Now that the Dark Cloud Mountain Range have been pacified, even if there are still some Sin Beast, they are nothing more than a handful, and he is too lazy to waste time on them.
Naturally, one must go to new places to hunt Sin Beast.
"To the northwest of the Dark Cloud Mountain Range, there is another mountain range called Great Ridge Mountain, which is even larger than the Dark Cloud Mountain Range."
"Among them are numerous Sin Beast, especially the seven main peaks, each guarded by the Diamond Realm Sin Beast."
Lin An quickly identified his next target. After putting away all the puppets, he Aura Concealment Formation, suppressing his cultivation level to Platinum Second Grade, and then flew towards Great Ridge Mountain.
The Sin Abyss is never short of Sin Beast. It is said that the worst Sin Beast born in the Sin Abyss are at the Gold Realm, and they can break through to the Platinum Realm in just a few years.
Lin An didn't know how big the Sin Abyss; the map only showed the situation within a ten-thousand-mile radius of Heavenly Vault Pass.
It's not that there aren't Sin Beast thousands of miles away; it's just that that place is no longer under the control of the Human Race.
Lin An estimated that the starting level of the Sin Beast tens of thousands of miles away were all Diamond, with countless epic and legendary ones, and perhaps even mythical and Conferral King Rank Sin Beast.
This vast area is a buffer zone, or rather, a battlefield, between Heavenly Vault Pass and the Sin Beast.
"Presumably, the final battleground for Human Race after ending the chaotic era three thousand years ago was in the Sin Abyss."
Lin An couldn't help but think of the mural he had seen in the Ancient Spirit Tower, especially the sword that reached to the heavens in the painting, wondering if it was still in this Sin Abyss.
Great Ridge Mountain is not far from the Dark Cloud Mountain Range, only a few hundred miles away, Lin An arrived in just over an hour.
He also encountered some Sin Beast that attacked him along the way, but he dealt with them all easily.
Compared to the Dark Cloud Mountain Range, the Great Ridge Mountain are much more majestic and spectacular, especially the seven peaks, which resemble seven sharp swords reaching straight to the sky.
"According to the information marked on the map, all seven peaks of the Great Ridge Mountain are inhabited by the Diamond Realm Sin Beast, and there are more than one of them."
"If one peak is in danger, the Sin Beast on the other six peaks will surely know."
Lin An narrowed his eyes, considering whether he should take the risk and give it a try.
With his current combat strength, he should be equivalent to Diamond Fifth Grade- level Sin Beast in the Sin Abyss.
With the Thundercloud All-Slaying Formation at his disposal, he wouldn't fear even a Diamond Seventh Grade Sin Beast.
"How about we go all out? If we can't win, we can just run away."
Lin An still had Thousand-Li Teleportation Talisman, which allowed him to instantly teleport to a fixed point and leave, which was why he dared to take the risk.
Besides, he also had Substitute Puppet and a token given to him by his cheap father.
The former can withstand one fatal blow, while the latter contains the power of Epic Tier attack.
"Let's go big then."
Thinking it over, Lin An immediately entered the Great Ridge Mountain.
This time, he didn't intend to hunt the Sin Beast; killing them one by one would be a waste of time.
No matter how many methods he used to attract the Sin Beast, none of them could compare to the roar of Diamond Tier Sin Beast.
Once Diamond Tier Sin Beast is in danger, it will inevitably call for support. At that time, all the Sin Beast in the entire Great Ridge Mountain will gather together, which is both quick and convenient.
Lin An moved swiftly through the mountains and forests, intending to go directly to the nearest main peak.
Fifteen minutes later, Lin An suddenly stopped.
Looking ahead, he sensed nearly a hundred auras.
Most of the auras belonged to the Sin Beast, while nine auras belonged to the Human Race, and surprisingly, he felt a sense of familiarity with these auras.
Did you run into someone you know?
As Lin An was pondering this, he saw nine people fleeing rapidly toward him.
Behind these nine people followed a large number of Sin Beast.
"Hahaha, you despicable Human Race, how dare you come to our Great Ridge Mountain to seek your death! Who gave you the guts?"
"Kill them! This is the first time I've seen such weak Human Race prey. We can't let them escape."
"Run! Run faster, or we'll catch up!"
"..."
The numerous Sin Beast chased after them, shouting as they went.
The nine people fleeing ahead were pale-faced. They knew these Sin Beast were toying with them, but they dared not linger for even a moment.
"If we had known that Great Ridge Mountain was so dangerous, we shouldn't have come here."
Someone couldn't help but say something, but it was clearly too late to say it at this point.
Looking at the nine people fleeing, Lin An had a strange expression on his face.
He actually knew all nine of them.
Three of them were He Changshan, Shang Minghai, and Zhuang Qing'er, all of whom were in his team and neighbors.
As for the other six people, they were the team led by Shi Shan.
"No wonder I didn't run into He Changshan and the other two when I went out this time; they were busy escaping for their lives here."
Lin An looked at the nearly one hundred Sin Beast behind the nine people. Most of them were only around the Platinum Third Grade, but there was a Platinum Sixth Grade Red-Scaled Beast guarding the area.
The strongest of the nine was Shi Shan, who had reached the Platinum Fifth Grade. He struggled even against a single Platinum Sixth Grade Red-Scaled Beast, let alone the sheer number of Sin Beast.
Soon, the nine people arrived at a distance of no more than a hundred meters from him.
I guess I'm still kind-hearted after all.
Lin An shook his head, and then the Condemnation appeared in his hand, unleashing a flash of light.
