Chapter 43 Thorn Town, Discovered Lu Luo

Fifth Realm mystic realm, Inferior Demon Mountain.

After passing through the door of light, Lin Xuan saw a mountain peak that towered into the clouds.

The mountain peak was 900 meters high and was divided into floors. It had one floor every 100 meters. The mystic realm king cave was located at the top.

The demon beasts of the Inferior Demon Mountain had various attributes, including physical, magic, fire, lightning, frost, and poison attributes.

According to the information of the Germinal Organization, Lin Xuan knew that the items dropped by the demon beasts of the Inferior Demon Mountain were all rather good.

Attribute items included the Wind Wolf Mane (+1% movement speed), the Pig Fangs (+1% attack speed), the Old Tree Bark (+1% blocking rate), and the Hemp Root (+1% energy recovery speed).

As for skill books, there was High-level Perception, a passive skill that allowed one to sense multiple targets within a 100-meter radius.

There was also Stealth, a passive skill that reduced one’s presence by 30%.

High-level Thorn Body, a passive skill that increased reflective damage by 60%.

Flame Explosion, an active skill and the favorite skill of many fire mages.

The Ice Spear Technique, an active skill that combined physical and frost damage.

There was also the Demonized Body, a passive skill that gave +10% magic damage and +10% magic resistance.

There were also many types of equipment that dropped. However, none of the equipment on the Inferior Demon Mountain were suitable for Lin Xuan. There were more sets here that were suitable for archers and mages.

Moreover, the most important thing was that the Inferior Demon Mountain had many precious minerals!

The minerals in the Giant Rock Cave were already unable to satisfy Lin Xuan’s needs. It was time for Lin Xuan to remove the Gold Swallowing Lizard from one of the training avatar slots and use that slot on the demon beasts of the Inferior Demon Mountain instead.

When Lin Xuan arrived, he happened to see Wen Xiong also working hard to explore the mystic realm.

“Shield Ghost, what a coincidence.” Wen Xiong had just killed a Demon Blood Wolf with a punch before wiping off his sweat.

Lin Xuan nodded slightly and followed the winding mountain path up, not stopping at a lower height.

Wen Xiong smacked his lips. “Shield Ghost is indeed as ambitious as before!”

Lin Xuan continued upwards. After reaching 700 meters, he could clearly sense that the number and strength of the demon beasts had increased greatly.

He first removed the training avatar of the Gold Swallowing Lizard and killed the two demon beasts of the Inferior Demon Mountain with better attributes. He then turned a Demon Blood Tiger and a Demon Blood Python into his two training avatars.

(Current Area: Seventh floor of the Inferior Demon Mountain (3700 general coin per minute, 18500 experience points per minute)] In this way, he currently had six training avatars. Four of them were in the Fourth Realm mystic realm Blazing Fire Plains, and two were in the Fifth Realm mystic realm inferior Demon Mountain.

He required a total of 4.5 billion experience points to advance from level one to level nine Fifth Realm.

If Lin Xuan were to include the time needed to upgrade his skills, equipment, and rune fragments to level nine of the Fifth Realm, the total time required would be unimaginable.

“In any case, with the Germinal Organization around, it is very safe here. I’m not in a hurry.”

“I’ll wait until I get all the skill books in the Blazing Fire Plains before removing the training avatars there.”

16 ordinary white grade skill books were needed to be combined into a single peerless golden grade skill book.

Since he had the ability to grind to the limit, Lin Xuan naturally did not want to leave any regrets.

Then, Lin Xuan returned along the original path.

When he returned to the first floor, Wen Xiong was still killing the Demon Blood Wolf here.

“Eh? You’re leaving?” He was very surprised.

Lin Xuan nodded. “I was a little too ambitious. I just got to 300 meters and was injured.”

Wen Xiong consoled, “It’s fine, it’s fine. Then go and rest.”

After saying goodbye to Wen Xiong, Lin Xuan found a deserted place and changed out of his Shield Ghost equipment. He returned to being a cautious and low-key wasteland reclaimer.

“The consciousness space is a little small now. Moreover, I also have a large number of general coins in reserve. Let’s increase the size.”

Lin Xuan spent a large number of general coins and quickly changed the entire consciousness space.

[Consciousness Space: Level 6]

Capacity: 400 cubic meters

[Smelting Table: Table 1 (currently smelting ores), Table 2 (currently smelting equipment), Table 3 (currently smelting runes)] [Forging Table: Forging Table 1 (Unused), Forging Table 2 (Unused), Forging Table 3 (Unused)]

(Synthesis Table: Synthesis Table 1 (Unused), click to check the synthesis list]

[Medicine Table: Medicine Table 1 (Unused), Click to check the medicinal list]

Currently, these workstations were all level 3 workstations with+50% efficiency.

A level 4 workstation had 100% more efficiency compared to a level 1 workstation. To upgrade a workstation from a level 3 workstation to a level 4 workstation, one would require 1 million general coins.

Lin Xuan raised all the workstations to level 4 in a single breath.

“Alright, alright, time to increase the efficiency!”

Half a month later, at night.

Lin Xuan sent out his avatar and changed his appearance to arrive at Thorn Town.

The last time he came here, he had only watched from afar and did not enter the town.

However, this time, he planned to enter and take a look. Perhaps he could obtain more information from these people.

After all, this body had left him with pitifully few memories.

Ever since the demon disaster destroyed East Lake City, Lin Xuan’s previous self had been staying in East Lake City and had no idea what was going on in the outside world.

Due to the existence of wandering demon beasts in the wilderness, connections were almost completely cut off, and information was extremely scarce.

Lin Xuan was wearing the black cloak from before. His entire face was covered by a mask, and no one could tell who he was.

The others could only determine from his appearance that this was not a person to be trifled with.

Lin Xuan entered Thorn Town and was not stopped at all.

However, he clearly sensed several unfriendly gazes wandering around him.

Lin Xuan used his Observer skill to observe the people of Thorn Town one by one. The data panel of these people revealed all of their secrets in front of him. Everything was crystal clear.

Just as he thought, the vast majority of the martial artists gathered here were at the Zero Realm and First Realm.

There were very few level nine First Realm martial artists.

However, when he saw a figure in the corner, he immediately lost his calm.

Because this person was Lu Luo!

At this moment, Lu Luo was wrapped in a large brown cloak. The cloak was covered in dirt, and those who did not know would only treat Lu Luo as an ordinary refugee.

“What is Lu Luo doing here? Is she here to experience the local customs?” Lin Xuan was very puzzled.

Then, he sensed that Lu Luo also looked at him with her Observer skill.

However, the attributes that Lin Xuan displayed were all carefully disguised. They were not too powerful or too weak.

In Lu Luo’s eyes, he was a level one Third Realm martial artist with ordinary attributes.

As Lin Xuan pondered, he planned to find a place to sit.

“Heh, you’re from outside. This is Thorn Town. You have to pay for coming here!” Three martial artists suddenly walked over from three directions with unkind expressions.

Lin Xuan sighed. Such incidents of finding trouble were indeed common. Lin Xuan asked, “How much?”

The martial artist in the lead licked his lips. He had probably mistaken Lin Xuan for a big fish. “1,000… no… 10,000 general coins!”

The other party was only a level three First Realm martial artist and had only accumulated more than 900 general coins.

If he could extort this spendthrift, he would be able to make a killing.

Lin Xuan nodded. “Get closer. I’ll directly trade with you.”

The martial artist grinned and approached without any vigilance.

The next moment, a terrifying high temperature surged out of Lin Xuan’s palm and instantly pierced through the martial artist’s chest, burning a huge transparent hole.

The martial artist’s eyes widened as he fell to the ground.

The surrounding martial artists stood up in fear.

The other party had instantly killed a level three First Realm martial artist.

What kind of monster was this outsider?
