Lin Xun’s spirit power was so tremendously strong and sensitive that it was beyond imagination.

In a split second, he was able to detect a figure hiding in the dense bushes around three thousand feet in the distance.

This person had cold eyes and huge nostrils. He was sniffing the air using a secret art, and he soon cast his eyes to the direction of the mountain where Lin Xun was situated.

Clearly, the person determined Lin Xun’s whereabouts entirely by his sense of smell!

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes. The rumors about the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan came to his mind. The clan was known for their sharp sense of smell.

The nose of a dog is powerful!

Frowning, Lin Xun quickly ended his cultivation session.

He realized that the fight with the Spirit Pearl Sect had alarmed the powerful experts of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan!

Then, he sensed that the person hiding in the distance suddenly took out a black and blood-red bamboo slip.

That’s—?

Although Lin Xun didn’t know what it was, his instincts told him that something was wrong.

Shua!

The next moment, he vanished from the spot and activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step to its peak. Without hiding his aura, he darted into a full-speed dash towards the person.

Rumble!

He sped across three thousand feet in the blink of an eye.

The Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan expert might have been startled, but his reaction was as fast as always. He immediately sprang up and bolted.

However, he was still too slow. With a swoosh, the Broken Blade slashed through the air like a rainbow and pierced his back, sending him across the ground, staggering and screaming.

At the same time, Lin Xun drifted down and crushed his back with his foot. “Speak! Are you going to talk or do you want to force me to do it myself?”

“Little bastard, how dare you injure me...” It was a gaunt young man in black with huge nostrils.

He glowered maliciously at Lin Xun, but before he finished speaking, he saw sparks fly before him, and his skull was almost shattered.

Lin Xun didn’t waste time talking to him. He directly aimed a palm strike at his head. He planned to torture him using the means he learned from the Blood Kill Camp.

Half a moment later, the young man was twitching on the ground. His face was deathly pale, his forehead was beaded with cold sweat, his teeth were shattered, and his eyes were lifeless. He seemed to be on the verge of collapsing from the excruciating pain.

But he longed for death. The pain of the torture was too tormenting and worse than hell.

Unsurprisingly, Lin Xun soon found everything he wanted to know.

Pu!

He released a God-Devourer Insect and let it drill into the body of the black-robed youngster, devour his spirit, and end his life on the spot.

Then, the youngster was transformed into his original form—a huge black dog with an ox-like body, scarlet-red eyes, silky and shiny fur, strong hooves, and white, razor-sharp fangs.

That was the true appearance of a Black Nightmare Sky Dog.

Swoosh!

Lin Xun carried the black dog and disappeared from the spot.

……

In front of a clear mountain stream, a campfire crackled and burned fiercely. Meat was being barbecued above it until it was a beautiful golden brown color and gave off a salivating aroma.

It was the meat of a Black Nightmare Sky Dog, a special species of dogs. It was rich in blood qi and essence and could be considered a food delicacy.

Lin Xun drifted off in deep thought before the campfire.

He might have found out what he wanted to know, but the truth shocked him a little.

The Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan had dispatched more than one hundred elites to Flame Capital, including two half-step kings and a true king!

Additionally, a direct descendant of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan also came with the army of elites. In other words, the leader of the operation had to be the direct descendant.

His name was Gou Xuxing, whom others addressed as Young Master. He was regarded as one of the top figures in the young generation of the tremendous Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan.

Gou Xuxing wasn’t an ordinary character. Based on the internal appraisal system of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan, he had earned himself the title of Thousand Killer.

What did Thousand Killer mean?

It meant that Gou Xuxing once killed thousands of enemies who were stronger than him with his own strength!

Cultivation did not represent real combat strength.

The fact that Gou Xuxing was able to achieve this astonishing feat was enough to prove that he was a fierce character who could kill enemies of higher cultivation levels.

His remarkable feet also helped him achieve a transcendent status within the clan. He was worshiped as a young master and was always accompanied by clan experts of the older generation.

It was rumored that among the younger generation of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan were also geniuses with the title Million Enemies.

Of course, that information didn’t rattle Lin Xun. But he was most shocked by the fact that their ultimate goal wasn’t to deal with Lin Wenjun, but to kill Xia Xiaochong!

This was because Xia Xiaochong was also a descendant of the Azure Hill Sky Fox Clan, and she had the purest bloodline as the Black Fox Ancestral Blood ran in her veins.

Lin Xun had no idea how incredible the bloodline talent was, but he found out that Xia Xiaochong would possess boundless power once she awakened the bloodline power. After that, she would become a huge threat to the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan.

Therefore, they viewed her as a thorn that they had to get rid of to prevent troubles in the future!

They went to so much trouble and mobilized so many people and even dispatched two half-step kings and a true king to kill Xia Xiaochong!

“It turns out that this girl has such an extraordinary identity...” While thinking, Lin Xun tore the meat of the roasted dog. It was so delicious that he looked visibly moved.

So tasty!

The meat was charred and crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The flavor and fragrance burst in his mouth as he chewed. No wonder it was considered a delicacy.

Anyone else would feel uneasy and unable to eat at peace upon hearing that information.

But Lin Xun seemed unbothered. He sat leisurely by the clear stream, gorging on the roasted meat and sipping wine from time to time.

Before long, he devoured the entire black dog, leaving only a pile of bones on the ground.

Then, he stood up and exhaled a long breath of turbid air. He was so full that he felt as though he possessed inexhaustible energy.

“It seems like the black dog meat is a great supplement for cultivation, and it also tastes delicious.”

Lin Xun smacked his lips and then smiled to himself, “This is pretty good, at least I get to enjoy eating black dog meat. It’s worth it...”

Without further delay, he turned around and left.

Lin Wenjun had asked him to bring Xia Xiaochong to Azure Hill Mountain in the Perched Phoenix Province.

When he set off, he came to learn that the Perched Phoenix Province was extremely far from the Fire Spirit Province and was separated by dozens of provinces and cities between them.

It would take them at least ten days to get there even with the speed of the Grand Universe Ark.

However, Lin Xun had other plans.

……

Two hours later.

A pack of Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan experts appeared by the banks of the stream.

Their faces turned livid at the sight of the pile of gnawed bones left on the ground. Then, a furious howl sent the nearby creatures trembling with fear.

“Argh! Who dares to devour the experts of our clan like food?! Who is so arrogant?! Who doesn’t want to live?!”

The Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan had always done what they wanted and always slaughtered their opponents ruthlessly. Who would have thought that someone in this world would dare to barbecue and eat them?

They viewed that as the greatest provocation and insult, and whoever did that couldn’t be forgiven!

“He better hope that I don’t catch him, otherwise I will make him experience what is worse than death!” Gou Dong’s expression was ice-cold.

“Don’t tell the young master about this, otherwise we might have to bear his wrath.” He instructed after taking a deep breath, “Clean up this place and continue to search for traces of the enemy. No matter who he is, he has to pay for his actions of going against the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan!”

“Yes!” The other experts took the order and launched into action, emitting waves of strong murderous intent.

No target had ever escaped their pursuit. Since they had already locked onto the target’s aura, they believed it wouldn’t take long for them to kill the opponent!

……

Dawn broke. The gorgeous rays of morning sunlight slipped through the forests and beamed down the mountains, bathing everything in a golden glow.

Fierce birds chirped, beasts roared, and waterfalls rumbled down the thousand-foot-tall cliffs like a white dragon.

Lin Xun was standing atop a mountain peak with his hands behind his back. His tall and elegant figure resembled a green pine tree on the edge of a cliff. He surveyed the mountains, valleys, and rivers in the distance. The mountains stood motionless and silent like halberds with mists swirling around them.

But Lin Xun saw a completely different scene.

Mysterious and obscure runes emerged in his eyes, and two beams of divine light shot out from them. Currents of air appeared one after another from the mountains in his field of vision.

Some were as dark as ink, eerie like fog, blotting out the sun and the sky.

Some were as bright and captivating as gold and with auspicious rays of light dancing within them.

But most were ordinary and gray, like smoke and fog.

“The ones that are black as ink are the unpleasant qi in the mountains, and must be concealing highly toxic objects or fierce monsters and beasts.”

“The ones that are bright and dazzling are treasure lights, which indicate the location of a mine in the mountains...” Lin Xun pondered.

The colorful currents were the flow of air in the mountains and rivers, a kind of power of heaven and earth.

Not many cultivators were able to identify and perceive them.

However, Lin Xun was able to see through them right away and perceive their true nature. That was the magical ability of the Chaofeng Eye.

Of course, this was a simple and superficial use of the Chaofeng Eye.

Its core use was in exploring veins!

Huh?

Lin Xun’s eyes suddenly narrowed after feeling a piercing pain. He sensed a majestic gush of qi surging into the sky on the distant mountain like it was a forbidden land.

“Could that be a great treasure land?” Lin Xun’s heart fluttered, and his figure vanished right away.
