Chapter 209: Chapter 153: Destined to a Dead End! [First Update!]

In the midst of the night.

There was a bundle on the ground, a wooden bow discarded beside it, along with three wooden arrows.

"Where’s the fish?"

Lin Xiaoqi, transformed from Little White Ape, ran forward, his head still swaying from the arrow that had pierced through it.

"It escaped."

Lin Yan picked up the wooden bow, feeling its heavy weight, and couldn’t help but frown and ask, "What material is this?"

He casually pulled the arrow out from atop Little White Ape’s head, only to discover it was an ordinary arrow.

A practitioner in the Qi Refining Realm could usually strike a target thousands of steps away!

But with this wooden bow, it could actually shoot up to three thousand steps!

"Turns out it’s a treasure, it’s yours now."

Lin Yan tossed it over casually.

Little White Ape reached out to catch it, but groaned softly,

"It’s so heavy."

"Hmm?"

Lin Yan, taking back the bow, glanced at it and slowly said, "Could it be that the material of this wooden bow has the effect of suppressing the evil and strange energies?"

He vaguely understood something and mused, "Did the fellow just now, who was a Qi Refiner with an ancient flaw, find the bow too heavy to carry, thus he threw it away in his haste to flee because he was afraid of moving slowly?"

Thinking this, Lin Yan took a small crossbow and handed it over, saying, "It seems you can’t use this bow, so use this small crossbow from now on."

"Alright!"

Little White Ape carefully stored the small crossbow, then asked, "Was that fish just now in the Qi Refining Realm?"

"Its cultivation was probably slightly higher than mine."

Lin Yan, with a frown, said, "Actually, killing him would not have been easy, so why did he flee so quickly?"

"..."

Little White Ape wore a strange expression and glanced at him.

Normally speaking, in this eerie night, an evil spirit of fierce level is more terrifying than a Qi Refiner.

If there is a sufficient number of evil beings around, a fierce evil spirit might be lurking in the dark, potentially exhausting a Qi Refiner to death and consuming them completely!

Earlier, the master had exterminated a fierce evil spirit in less than a quarter of an hour.

That the other party did not flee directly and dared to test us with a wooden bow already indicated extreme boldness.

"Indeed..."

Lin Yan seemed to realize something, and with a hint of sudden understanding, said, "In Qifeng Prefecture, those who can cultivate to the Qi Refining Realm are not simple characters."

"To reach the Qi Refining Realm, one does not know how many years it takes or how much hardship one suffers, just to finally enter this rank."

"Such people, believing they have reached the peak of life and ascended to a higher place, are cautious and cherish their lives all the more; it’s quite normal."

Listening to the master’s words, Little White Ape’s expression grew even stranger.

If someone else had said this, it would have been one thing.

But coming from the master’s mouth, it seemed somehow inappropriate?

"Master, you haven’t spent many years or suffered much hardship either..." Little White Ape murmured.

"What did you say?" Lin Yan tilted his head and asked.

"This humble one says, indeed, in Qifeng Prefecture, being in the Qi Refining Realm means one can stride boldly anywhere, truly deserving to cherish life." Little White Ape spoke earnestly.

"Let’s go, since the other party is so fearful, the latter part of the night should be relatively calm."

Lin Yan turned his head, looking at Little White Ape with a hole in its forehead, and said expressionlessly, "The night is deep and dewy; water has seeped into your brain, get it fixed."

"This ’False Body Creation’ magic method is not bad, but the paper from the Observatory is really of poor quality."

Little White Ape touched his head and couldn’t help saying, "Master, when will my this month’s salary be given? I need to add some money and buy some good quality paper, so I can propery act as a human. Otherwise, I’ll either need constant repairs or a complete rebuild, which is quite troublesome."

It looked up only to see the master had walked far away, so it hurriedly placed the small crossbow in its pocket and scampered after him.

"Speaking of which, this bow can shoot three thousand steps, sounds quite formidable, but the power doesn’t feel that great, it barely penetrated my paper-crafted head..."

Little White Ape spoke solemnly, "With the master’s cultivation, status, character, appearance, charisma... without powerful arrows, this bow is not worthy of you!"

Lin Yan weighed the bow in his hands, then continued, "This bow is extraordinary, even ordinary arrows, when enhanced by True Qi, are not weak."

Little White Ape said, "But that arrow just now didn’t feel very powerful."

Lin Yan continued walking forward while speaking, "They considered you a novice Martial Artist who hasn’t even fully trained his flesh, bones, and tendons, and yet they were willing to shoot an arrow at you. That’s all the recognition you get. And you expect them to exert their full effort?"

"That arrow was just a test, they also wanted to use the least amount of effort to destroy the Pure Land and achieve the greatest result."

"If they couldn’t succeed, then they would have to flee, using less True Qi so they would have more to escape with."

Having said that, Lin Yan then turned his head, wearing his usual expression, and said, "There’s something off about you, boy, always full of exaggerated praise with an ulterior motive!"

"Not at all."

Little White Ape quickly shook its head, but paused, then whispered, "Master, I’ve heard in Qifeng Prefecture City, there is a type of arrow made from Parasol Divine Wood, specifically effective against evil spirits."

"Exorcism Arrow!"

Lin Yan nodded and said, "I’ve heard of this arrow’s reputation."

Little White Ape hesitated and then said, "My grandfather mentioned that the Solitary Boat in the Mysterious Fog is unlike ordinary evil spirits; its composition is extremely complex... but the Exorcism Arrow might have a controlling effect on it."

Lin Yan stopped, speaking softly, "Do you wish to seek revenge?"

Little White Ape paused, then nodded slightly.

Since it was reborn, it had followed Lin Yan.

But inevitably, thoughts of revenge occupied its mind.

It had never dared to discuss it previously, as the Solitary Boat in the Mysterious Fog was extremely fierce and evil.

Looking across Qifeng Prefecture, among the Human Clan’s strong ones, very few could be confident in exterminating such a fierce and evil existence.
