"You can't deal with him by yourself? Your strength should be higher than him, aren't you?" Yun Lintian asked back in puzzlement. In his view, Hua Litong was far stronger than Luo Kun.

Hua Litong shook her head, "You have been deceived by him." ​​

"Deceive?" Yun Lintian was confused.

"Wanru told me Luo Kun had provoked you back then. What do you think of him?" Hua Litong didn't clarify right away. She asked him a question instead.

Yun Lintian replied casually, "He is arrogant and never puts anyone in his eyes. Also, love to rely on his background. Nothing more."

Hua Litong chuckled, "That's why I said, you were deceived by him… Actually, everything he did in front of you was acting. He might appear to be an arrogant, stupid youngster who flaunting his background then and there, but in truth, he is a very shrewd person. Do you think Yang Chen, a genius who can comprehend a sword intent at sixteen, would actually lose to Luo Kun in a fair fight?"

A thoughtful expression appeared on Yun Lintian's face. He had doubted about this matter before, but he brushed it off because he didn't care about it at that time. Thinking of it now, it was true, as Hua Litong said. A sword intent was not a cabbage to be found easily. With this sword intent, Yang Chen could be said he was invincible among his peers. Then, how could Yang Chen be defeated by Luo Kun in a fair fight? Unless…

Seeing his expression, Hua Litong nodded. "That's right. He used an underhand method. During the fight, someone occasionally using a spiritual attack on Yang Chen. This person is very powerful. His method is so clean and traceless. No one was able to detect it."

"Then how did you know?" Yun Lintian asked.

Hua Litong had already expected this question. She replied calmly, "Because I am special." Suddenly, her eyes glowed in pink light while she staring into Yun Lintian's eyes.

"Hmm?" Yun Lintian could see the strange light in her eyes, and he felt as if something invaded his mind. His consciousness started to fade away. All he could see right now was a pitch-black world. Unknowingly, the phoenix patterns on Yun Lintian's ring lit up, and a warm current quickly flushed into his body. His mind slowly regained the clarity.

"Ugh…" Suddenly, Hua Litong got a backlash, causing her to cough up fresh blood.

Yun Lintian completely regained his sense. He took out the iron bow from his ring and aimed at Hua Litong. He asked sternly, "What are you doing?"

Hua Litong wiped the blood out of her lips. She answered, "Sorry. It's my fault. I just want to show you my power."

Yun Lintian frowned, "Your power?"

Hua Litong nodded weakly, "Yes. I possess a special soul that was inherited from our ancestors. It's called Illusory Flower Soul. With this soul, I am extremely sensitive to any soul activity around me. This is the reason why I can perceive that person's spiritual attack even I have the strength at Essence Profound Realm."

Yun Lintian thought for a moment before he lowed his bow down. He studied in medical profound art and he knew about this strange soul. It just that the name was not the same. He didn't press on this matter further as he took out several formation stones from his ring.

"How did you do that?" Hua Litong asked. She was curious how did Yun Lintian attack her despite he was under her spiritual technique.

"Do what?" Yun Lintian asked back nonchalantly. In fact, he was also wondering about it as well. Earlier he could feel a warm current flushed into his body out of nowhere, but he couldn't find the answer.

Seeing Yun Lintian didn't want to talk about it, Hua Litong didn't inquire further. She asked, "How about it? Do you want to join me to kill Luo Kun?"

Yun Lintian shrugged his shoulders. "You should put Luo Kun's matter away first. We are going to face an enemy that is ten times stronger than Luo Kun. Do you want to join me to kill it?"

"Enemy?" Hua Litong didn't understand.

Yun Lintian explained, "I have offended the Spirit Profound Beast, and it is coming for my life."

"Spirit Profound Beast? How is it possible!? This place cannot contain any Spirit Profound Realm's power." Hua Litong responded in disbelief.

"Well, it's already happened." Yun Lintian didn't want to waste his time talking with her further. He inscribed a complicated rune on the Formation stones one by one swiftly.

The Formation stone was similar to Profound stone in terms of appearance, but the function was different. The Formation stone couldn't contain profound energy for a long period like Profound stone, but it could let profound energy passing through. It was easy to find compared with Profound stone and was commonly used to set up a formation.

Hua Litong was sure Yun Lintian didn't need to lie to her. She chose to believe in his words in the end. "You can inscribe the ancient runes? Don't tell me, besides being a genius doctor, you are also a profound inscriber?" She was dumbfounded upon seeing Yun Lintian skillfully inscribed several complicated ancient runes on the Formation stones… What kind of monster is this? How could someone possess such an unbelievable talent like this? Hua Litong's mind was thrown into a mess.

Yun Lintian didn't bother to answer her. He quickly moved to several spots and buried formation stones into the ground — forming into a killing formation covered around two hundred square meters area.

"You are a formation master as well!?" Hua Litong was shocked once again. She didn't know how to describe his talent anymore.

Yun Lintian patted dust out of his hands and verified the killing formation carefully again. After confirming it worked perfectly fine, he took out three low-grade Profound stones and put it into the center of the formation, connecting with other formation stones. To save the consumption of Profound stone, he only set up the Spirit-level Profound Formation, which should be enough to deal with the Abyssal Crocodile in his estimation.

He wasn't sure if the Abyssal Crocodile had followed him, but he decided to put up a fight because he didn't want to run anymore. After listening to Hua Litong, if his luck was bad enough and encountered Luo Kun, he could only run for his life. He better solved this crocodile first, in case it hadn't given up on killing him.

"What is your decision?" Yun Lintian turned to ask Hua Litong, who was currently opened her mouth wide with a dumbfounded expression.

Regaining her sense, Hua Litong replied firmly, "Of course, I'll stay. Anyway, I still need you to help me deal with Luo Kun."

Yun Lintian responded, "Alright. It's a deal then."

Roarrrrr!

Yun Lintian was about to speak further. A familiar roar once again rang out from afar, causing both of them to look involuntarily in its direction.

"That…" Hua Litong's eyes widened open when she saw the Abyssal Crocodile's enormous body appeared in her line of sight.

Yun Lintian's face turned solemn. His right foot placed on the eyes of the formation, ready to activate it at any moment.

The Abyssal Crocodile's Spiritual Sense immediately locked onto Yun Lintian. Profound energy surging out of its body wildly. Instantaneously, it darted toward Yun Lintian like a bolt of lightning.

"I'll activate the killing formation. You can launch your attack right away." Yun Lintian told Hua Litong and stomped his foot on the eyes of the formation.

Woosh!

The Profound stone in the center shone brightly and profound energy speedily rushed to other formation stones, lighting the ancient runes on them. In the next moment, a barrier was formed into a large dome covering the area.

The Abyssal Crocodile seemed to notice the change of environment, but it was too late. It had stepped into the killing formation completely.

"Go!" Yun Lintian stomped on the formation's eyes once again and several profound energy blades appeared in the air before barraging at the crocodile.

"Roar!" The Abyssal Crocodile roared furiously, trying to fend off the incoming attack.

Yun Lintian and Hua Litong didn't give it time to breathe. They hastily launched offensive techniques on it.

Boom! Boom!

Yun Lintian's arrows broke the Abyssal Crocodile skins, leaving many small wounds on them. Meanwhile, Hua Litong sent out a deadly petal storm onto its head, causing the crocodile's blood to splash out like a fountain.

The profound energy blades continued to bombard the beast and inflicted several wounds on its body. The Abyssal Crocodile tried to form a protective barrier, but it exploded one after another almost instant.

Yun Lintian didn't stop to shoot the arrow consecutively at it. His attack might not be powerful as Hua Litong's, but under the bombard, the wounds on the crocodile were gradually deeper and wider.

"Almost there!" Hua Litong shouted excitedly. This was her first time fighting Spirit Profound Beast, and she was thrilled.

"No! It not that easy…" Yun Lintian didn't finish his sentence because he could feel a berserk power coming out from the crocodile.

Boom!

All of a sudden, the killing formation exploded into pieces under the Abyssal Crocodile's immense power. Before Yun Lintian and Hua Litong could say anything, its figure shot forward at them — precisely, at Yun Lintian.

"Shi…" Yun Lintian exclaimed in shock and he was hit directly by the Abyssal Crocodile.

"Die!" Hua Litong's sword released a powerful force as she struck at the Abyssal Crocodile's head.

Puff!

"Roarrrr!" Blood spurted out in the air along with a painful scream from the Abyssal Crocodile. One of its eyes was broken right away by Hua Litong's attack and a deep fatal wound also appeared on its head. Because of intense pain, the Abyssal Crocodile instinctively lashed its spiky tail at Hua Litong.

"Ah!" Hua Litong was caught off guard, or rather she couldn't put up a defense in time. She was blown away and hit a tree in a distance away, causing her to cough up blood. Estimating her ribs might have broken as well.

Yun Lintian stood up from the ground, wiping blood from his mouth. He took a long iron spear out and vaulted into the air before thrusting down with all his might at the Abyssal Crocodile's head.

Puff!

The spear went deep into the Abyssal Crocodile's head, at the same time, Yun Lintian was blown away by its tail. His body flew out like a cannonball, hitting several trees along the path before stopping at a giant boulder a hundred meters away.

Yun Lintian could feel at least three of his ribs and his right shoulder's bone were broken. He lifted his head to look at the furious beast in the distance. Helplessness and despair appeared in his mind for the first time since he came to this world. Weak… He was too weak.
