Chapter 233: Being Taught a Lesson

In the wilderness, Xu Jin looked at the last message sent by Qi Shanye regarding the characteristics of the Star Domain and gave a wry smile.

The Star Domain characteristics Old Qi gave Xu Jin were the characteristics of the aliens that killed their way out of this star gate.

The aliens that killed their way out the most back then were the Winged Tiger Clan among the Eight Desolation aliens, extremely good at wind-type star arts, and there was another type of alien, relatively fewer in number, named the Single-Horned Lei Bao, whose thunder-type star arts were very fierce; even the Fourth Elder of the Lingji Shang Xinggong suffered a loss when he first met them.

Xu Jin gave a wry smile.

At least there is a direction to look for.

It's better than having no direction.

In the future, when he reaches the Star River Battlefield, Xu Jin can look for Star Domains where these Winged Tiger Clan and Single-Horned Thunder Leopards appear, and find a way to enter the corresponding Star Domain to search, to see if there is a chance to bring Uncle-Master and Teacher back.

But it is impossible in the short term.

If he wants to go to a Sixth Tier Star Domain, Xu Jin estimates that even with his combat power, his cultivation must reach at least the mid-to-late Fifth Tier Gather Battle stage, or even the Sixth Tier.

Otherwise, it would just be sending food!

Recording these, Xu Jin calmed down, but let out a long sigh.

This night was like a dream, and it also made Xu Jin feel quite depressed.

Are Uncle-Master and Teacher considered good people?

Xu Jin doesn't know.

But they are definitely people with a bottom line.

Such people, even if they are not good people, are definitely not bad people.

But in the current world, they are defined as remnants, wanted criminals of various nations and star palaces, hiding like rats all day long.

Although he had experienced the beatings of society in his previous life, which made Xu Jin clear that there is no clear boundary between justice and evil, Teacher's encounter still made Xu Jin feel somewhat unwilling!

And he was even more curious about the destruction of the Lingji Shang Xinggong!

What exactly happened back then that caused the Lingji Shang Xinggong to be destroyed overnight?

Sighing is sighing, but life must go on!

Xu Jin identified the direction and set the next route, preparing to return the way he came, return to Songzhou State City, and see the situation in Songzhou.

If there is nothing unusual, he will take the public star boat back to Wanyi.

If there is something unusual, then Xu Jin will rush back to Wanyi on his own.

Within a day and a half at the latest, he can return to Wanyi.

Counting the time already spent, this trip out took a total of three days.

He shouldn't be discovered, right?

The next instant, just as Xu Jin was about to set off, he felt a flash in the corner of his eye. Turning his head to look, he saw that the southern sky suddenly exploded with dazzling light, illuminating the southern horizon.

That is where Teacher and Uncle-Master left.

Did something happen again?

But according to Teacher's starlight transmission, they had already entered.

Did something happen there?

Xu Jin was a bit curious.

He really wanted to take a look, wanting to personally confirm whether Teacher had safely entered the Sixth Tier Star Domain to escape.

But after thinking about it, Xu Jin pressed down on this idea extremely firmly.

He cannot go.

They are Seventh Tier experts who have to escape for their lives; if he runs up, he is purely adding trouble.

It is better to go to Songzhou first, and then slowly inquire about the news.

Once this thought occurred, Xu Jin wanted to fly along the ground to Songzhou.

But at this very instant, the Bright-Era Star Pattern in his lower star palace suddenly rotated slowly, emitting a faint light.

Xu Jin frowned?

Did it sense abnormal star power fluctuations?

Is a fierce beast approaching?

But the next instant, the star power fluctuations sensed by the Bright-Era Star Pattern increased rapidly.

In an instant, Xu Jin broke out in a cold sweat.

This characteristic is too obvious: this is someone approaching stealthily while hiding their star power fluctuations.

Fierce beasts do not hide star power fluctuations!

Someone is chasing!

In Xu Jin's sensing of the Bright-Era Star Pattern, the person approached slowly, and the cultivation aura was also basically sensed clearly.

Peak Fifth Tier Gather Battle Realm!

A peak Fifth Tier Gather Battle expert had touched over, and looking at this appearance, it was definitely ill-intentioned.

How to respond?

The Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Tier emblems used to kill enemies before were all gone; they were all given to Uncle-Master Mo Ji before.

There was only one small Star-Shifting emblem that could summon the Grand Master.

However, its usage range is within a thousand miles.

At this time, the Grand Master should still be in Wanyi, and the distance from Wanyi to here is at least four thousand miles.

It was useless.

Escape?

Xu Jin felt that the possibility of escaping alive was still extremely high.

Nothing else, when he set off before, Xu Jin had deduced the Flowing Star Pattern to the Sixth Tier high-grade, which directly increased Xu Jin's speed by twenty percent.

And before this, relying on the Sixth Tier low-grade Flowing Star Pattern and Thunder Wings, plus the Fourth Tier star artifact, his speed was already about the same as a mid-Fifth Tier Gather Battle expert.

At this time, with the speed increased by another twenty percent, he should be able to be faster than those Fifth Tier peak experts who are not good at speed.

At worst, holding steady is also possible.

But... what if!

In an instant, Xu Jin put escape last.

Before escaping for his life, he still had to try hard.

Especially since this opportunity was rare—this Fifth Tier expert who chased up must also be good at tracking and hiding, and should not know that Xu Jin had discovered him.

Because at this very moment, this person was still approaching Xu Jin at an extremely slow speed.

This is a battle opportunity!

The next instant, Xu Jin's mind sank into the Practice Arena, preparing his killing move!

In the wilderness, Zha Wei, the branch master of the Azure Shang Xinggong in Leizhou, operated his star power, suppressed his heart which was beating too fast because of excitement, and at the same time operated his hiding star art, collecting his aura and figure to the extreme, in order to approach the enemy at the closest distance, and then kill with one strike!

He really caught up!

He chased that aura that escaped alone; essentially, he was just gambling on luck, picking up a leak.

If it succeeded.

Then it was picking up a big leak, having great luck.

If it didn't succeed, then it was just a night trip, and there was no loss, it didn't matter.

But he didn't expect that by chasing the third aura that was sneaking along the ground, he actually caught the target.

This made him overjoyed.

Today's luck is truly exploding!

If the Star-Plucking Tower branch is really on this third person, then this unworldly merit is set.

Taking a step back, even if the Star-Plucking Tower branch is not on this third person, catching a Lingji remnant is at worst a great merit!

A business with profit and no loss!

However, Zha Wei also knew that caution is the parent of safety.

How can a frontal kill be as refreshing as a sneak attack and capture!

Therefore, he was still cautiously approaching.

It was getting closer and closer.

It was already approaching the hundred-meter range.

At the same time, Zha Wei also sensed the true cultivation aura of this Lingji remnant.

Refine Star, Ninth Layer!

After sensing it clearly, Zha Wei was slightly disappointed; with this cultivation, the Star-Plucking Tower branch is highly unlikely to be on him.

However, even with such cultivation, as long as it is a Lingji remnant, capturing it alive and handing it over is also a great merit.

Not a loss!

The only thing that worried Zha Wei was, what is this Lingji remnant doing here in the middle of the night?

Is he waiting for reinforcements or meeting other Lingji remnants?

Once this thought occurred, Zha Wei's greed arose again. Must get closer!

Then he could take down this Lingji remnant without making any noise!

Even if other Lingji remnants came over to meet, they wouldn't startle the snake.

Under concealment, maybe he could catch another Lingji remnant!

Capturing an ordinary Lingji remnant alive is a great merit, but capturing two is a strange merit!

Strange merit, even in the Star River Battlefield, is not easy to obtain.

Cautiously, Zha Wei approached slowly.

But at the next instant, extremely abruptly, the Lingji remnant fifty meters ahead flashed, and the moment Zha Wei realized something was wrong, a majestic spirit and soul fluctuation rose instantly.

Spirit and Soul Star Art: Startling Dream!

Zha Wei was blasted squarely.

Zha Wei's eyes, ears, mouth, and nose sprayed blood simultaneously, his eyes bulged, but he fell into confusion in an instant; this was the effect of Warm Dream. The next instant, Zha Wei's expression became extremely terrified, but he didn't make any movements.

This is the effect of Illusory Intent and Fear.

He was hard-controlled by Xu Jin.

Although Zha Wei is a peak Fifth Tier Gather Battle expert, his spirit and soul cultivation is only at Refine Star, Seventh Layer.

Almost the same instant he was hard-controlled, Xu Jin's mind sank into the Practice Arena, instantly detonating that Sixth Tier mid-grade Wind Spirit Star Core, and the next instant, violent cyan starlight rushed out from Xu Jin's palm, blasting directly at Zha Wei!

Blasted squarely!

What's more coincidental is that Zha Wei didn't have his protective starlight up because he wanted to sneak, and because he wanted to collect his aura. Just now, he felt something was wrong and wanted to put up his protective starlight, but it had already been interrupted by Xu Jin's hard control.

At this time, equivalent to having no defense, he was blasted by the full-strength explosion of the Sixth Tier mid-grade star core used by Xu Jin.

The terrifying cyan starlight tore Zha Wei's protective star armor, a Fourth Tier star artifact flashed with starlight, rushed out, and appeared above Zha Wei's head, wanting to protect the master spontaneously, but without anyone operating it, its power was greatly reduced.

Xu Jin, who rushed over, blasted a Flame Explosion, which directly blasted away the spiritual light of this Fourth Tier star artifact that was protecting the master spontaneously before it could unfold, and blasted it back into his body.

At the same instant, the cyan starlight exploded from the Sixth Tier mid-grade star core blasted a huge hole in Zha Wei's chest directly, and the heavy injury directly caused Zha Wei to wake up from the Startling Dream, and he let out a terrified scream instantly.

At this time, blasting Startling Dream again was not realistic, and it was of little use.

But the strong spirit and soul fluctuation rose again, and Break-Evil plus Fear blasted into Zha Wei's upper star palace again, causing Zha Wei's head to ache violently, and his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose sprayed blood again, and the protective starlight he had just put up was annihilated again!

His expression was already terrified to the extreme!

His fighting spirit also completely collapsed at this instant!

Wanted to escape!

He wanted to escape, didn't want to fight anymore!

However, Xu Jin would not give him any chance to escape for his life.

This guy didn't know when he had chased up, maybe he saw something, so he couldn't leave a living mouth.

Almost the instant the spirit and soul attack blasted out, another Fifth Tier high-grade Earth-type star core was detonated by Xu Jin, and at close range, it was directly thrust into the huge wound on Zha Wei's chest by Xu Jin.

In an instant, Zha Wei's upper body was blasted into a mess, and blood and internal organs sprayed wildly.

But even so, the terrified Zha Wei still wanted to escape.

Subconsciously turned and wanted to escape for his life.

He never expected that he would provoke such a terrifying monster!

A Lingji remnant disguised as Refine Star, Ninth Layer!

Damn it, do you have to harm people like this!

But the moment Zha Wei turned to escape, his whole person had already fallen from the low altitude.

With such heavy injuries, it was only because he was a peak Fifth Tier that he was still alive; if it were anyone else, he would have died long ago.

Xu Jin didn't dare to have any relaxation.

Rushed over like lightning, Purple Thunder Blasts blasted continuously, directly blasting Zha Wei's head into charcoal, and Xu Jin breathed a sigh of relief!

Slay!

Fortunately, he had slapped a Sixth Tier mid-grade star core before, which could be detonated by the Practice Arena to explode with the full-strength attack of his lifetime.

Theoretically, it counts as a Sixth Tier mid-grade attack emblem, but the real lethality might be a bit worse than the emblem, but it is a Sixth Tier attack after all!

Otherwise, if Xu Jin wanted to slay Zha Wei, it would be very troublesome!

Xu Jin quickly searched the corpse, but frowned immediately!

The attack just now was all aimed at the chest and abdomen of this person, and the full-strength attack exploded by the Sixth Tier mid-grade star core actually destroyed that Fourth Tier star artifact too!

It's really bad luck!

Didn't find anything!

Suddenly, Xu Jin saw a cloth bag hanging from the corpse's waist and was happy instantly.

There should be a harvest here.

Opened it and was stunned instantly.

Stinky!

Such a pungent smell.

Urine smell!

Why would a Fifth Tier expert carry three bags of mud with urine?

Xu Jin subconsciously wanted to throw it away.

But just as he was about to throw it, he was suddenly stunned and realized!

It seems he understood how he was exposed and how he was quietly tracked by this person.

In an instant, he switched to the Third Tier high-grade Snake Spirit, and instantly launched the Spirit-Sniffing Star Pattern.

Just sniffing slightly, Xu Jin confirmed it.

It really is!

One bag of mud has a strong personal scent of Xu Jin!

And some of the smells in it, if distinguished carefully with Spirit-Sniffing, can also be found on Xu Jin!

This taught Xu Jin another lesson.

In the future, when going out, he must pay attention to this aspect.

Otherwise, if he meets a tracking expert, it is easy for people to follow!

Today, Xu Jin had the Bright-Era Star Pattern; otherwise, he would definitely not have discovered this tracker. He was a Refine Star, Ninth Layer, even if he had many life-saving treasures, if he was hit by a ruthless attack from a peak Fifth Tier expert.

Even if he didn't die, it would definitely cost Xu Jin half his life!

This Bright-Era Star Pattern is truly infinitely useful.

If there is a chance in the future, he must strengthen it.

The next instant, Xu Jin checked the corpse one last time and didn't find anything about his identity or origin, but found a Star-Plucking Token soaked in blood.

At this very moment, this person's Star-Plucking Token was flashing continuously, and it was flashing very urgently; it looked like there was some urgent matter.

On the back of the Star-Plucking Token, there were the two characters "Cang Ming", and it was a Second Tier Star-Plucking Token!

From the Azure Shang Xinggong, able to possess a Second Tier Star-Plucking Token.

Inferring from this, this tracker's status is not low.

Could there be others?

Once this thought occurred, Xu Jin's heart jumped, and he directly blasted a Flame Explosion, destroying the corpse and erasing the traces, then thunder-type star power swept out, clearing his aura as much as possible, and at the same time, he burned the three groups of mud with strong personal scent with star fire, and only then prepared to move away quickly.

But when Xu Jin was about to leave, the starlight that exploded in the direction of Shi Long County in the distance lit up half the night sky again.

In just an instant, the night sky in the direction of Shi Long County was lit up several times continuously, constantly flickering, like daylight!

This made Xu Jin even more suspicious and even more worried!

In the direction of Shi Long County, what exactly happened?

Suddenly, Xu Jin saw streaks of light rising into the sky in the night sky, rushing toward the direction of Shi Long County from different directions.

Looking at that starlight, large and small, strong and weak, there were hundreds of them.

Especially in the direction of Tao Hua Prefecture, Songzhou, more streaks of light rose.

The first wave of light only had a dozen or so.

But the second wave that rose and flew toward the direction of Shi Long County had hundreds!

"So many people went over?"

This made Xu Jin's heart move.

Many people.

He could fish in troubled waters!

Many people, chaotic aura, chaotic scene, he rushed over, and the danger was not great!

The next instant, Xu Jin changed direction and turned toward the direction of Shi Long County, Tao Hua Prefecture, Songzhou.

With such a big commotion there, if he didn't go and see it with his own eyes, Xu Jin wouldn't be at ease!

And that place was not too far from Xu Jin's position.
