Chapter 731: Chapter 731: Bountiful Harvest

Before he got to the spot where the two women were laid, Peter Brown heard a series of angry roars.

"This is bad!"

When Peter went over to where the sounds were coming from, what he saw took him aback: a black bear had made it to the area. Not only had the bear reached the spot, but it had also broken the formation. The two women who were placed within it had already been killed by the bear, which was now gnawing away at their bodies.

How could this be?

Peter had been worrying about how to deal with the two women, yet he never foresaw the bear’s keen sense of smell leading it here.

In a fleeting moment, some understanding dawned on Peter. Even though the formation offered protection, the arousal of a certain yet potent scent on Sally Nelson due to the medicinal effects had been detected by the bear, which was what probably lured it here.

Peter shook his head as he stared at the two women who were in a mutilated state, thinking to himself that it was probably for the best. These two women were no saints, and their being alive would only lead to more trouble for him.

After waiting for a while, the roaring bear finally left the spot.

The bear, now blind in one eye, appeared to be more violent. Peter had no intention of provoking it.

After the bear left, Peter reached the spot where the formation was. He collected the shattered fragments of the Liu Yao Array and reconsidered the formation. Peter realized that the protection power of the Liu Yao Array had diminished and that he would need a new array.

Looking at the scattered bones around, Peter found the rings of the two women. Using the same method, he took a few things from their rings that could potentially be useful and then threw the rings back onto the ground.

After erasing his traces, Peter quickly left the area.

After a day, Peter arrived deeper into Fallen Sun Mountain and found a cave. Only after setting up a new formation at the mouth of the cave did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Truthfully, ever since he arrived in Cultivation World, Peter found himself dealing with one trouble after another, seemingly unending.

After thinking carefully about the incident with Sally and others, Peter felt slightly more relieved. Anyone investigating the incident, regardless of their abilities, would likely attribute the deaths to the bear, which significantly reduced any association with him.

Those who dared to kill me!

Peter was now brimming with a killing intent. He was determined not to let anyone who dared to provoke him go unpunished.

Finally free for a moment!

After meditating to restore his energy, Peter began to carefully inspect the items he had obtained.

He did not receive a single cultivation coin, as everyone had them bound to their Identity Cards. Even if he killed someone, Peter would not be able to obtain their coins.

He gained as many as a thousand spirit stones this time. Spirit stones were usually used to activate formations or as an energy source, so it was natural for people to carry some. Yet, Peter was somewhat regretful because the amount of spirit stones they brought were not many. Most of them were lower-grade spirit stones, and there were only five middle-grade ones.

Peter obtained eight pieces of thousand-year-old Lingcao. However, after examining them, he could only shake his head; these Lingcaos were all ordinary, and were of no use to him.

He obtained some weapons, but they were also not very useful to Peter.

Picking up a jade slip, Peter immediately copied its content into an empty jade slip without even looking at it.

Peter now wanted to look whether there were any useful things for him.

Everyone had their own Cultivation Technique. Although he obtained several Cultivation Techniques, the one Peter was currently practicing was evidently more powerful, so those weren’t useful to him.

Just as Peter felt disappointed, an Elixir Formula caught his attention.

Vitality Pill!

The moment he saw the Elixir Formula, Peter began feeling excited. The Vitality Pill was completely useful for him in his current state.

The Vitality Pill was a type of elixir that could significantly increase True Qi energy. Consuming one could also fast-track growth in cultivation level. Peter was currently stuck in the barrier between the Qi Refining Eleventh Layer to the 12th Layer. With this kind of elixir, he believed that he could smoothly advance to the 12th Layer. Moreover, the enormous energy of the Vitality Pill could further push his cultivation when he reached the 12th Layer.

He must produce such an elixir!

Having studied the Lingcao needed for the Vitality Pill for a while, Peter took out several Jade Bottles from his ring, which contained seeds of various Lingcao.

There are twelve types of Lingcao needed for the Vitality Pill’s production. When Peter looked at the seeds, he found that he already had seeds for seven of those Lingcao types, though he was still a few types short.

When he took out the seeds obtained from the others, Peter indeed found three more types of Lingcao.

Still two more types to go!

Peter first planted the ten types of Lingcao seeds he had in his ring. After watering them with Concentrated Spirit Liquid, he started thinking about finding the remaining two types of Lingcao when he got back.

"Rabbit, now we’re hunting for Bloodvine."

Releasing the Treasure Hunting Rabbit again, the two were once more on the road.

Now that those pursuing him were gone, the companionship of the rabbit seemed lighthearted. The Treasure Hunting Rabbit didn’t disappoint, helping Peter find several Lingcao plants he didn’t have yet, along with some materials for refining artifacts.

What Peter didn’t know was that as he appeared free and moving at an easy pace, the deaths of several people had shocked many.

The majority of these people were from affluent families, with Soul Lamps firmly in place at their homes.

Suddenly, numerous Soul Lamps simultaneously extinguished. The shock caused by this event was considerable. Many powerful Divine Senses swept around, and many of people, knowing their offspring’s whereabouts, went to Fallen Sun Mountain.

Two days after Peter’s departure, the battlefield where the bear had slaughtered people had gathered quite a few powerful individuals.

All the major families in the county sent Golden Core Level figures.

In the end, major families had special means. Using these methods, they found remnants of bodies that had long been gnawed away at by wild beasts.

"Who did this?"

Killing intent that cleaved through the sky leaked out.

The Academy’s power players from the county arrived, and the County Magistrate was unable to stay calm and also arrived.

"Investigate!"

"Find the murderer no matter what!"

These higher-ups were all in rage. Those who arrived were from various families. The death of the heirs they had been cultivating was a grave matter for the major families.

Soon, a specialized organization was formed here, setting the investigation into motion.

"I can rewind the scene of the battle for a brief moment. This should help us find the murderer," said an elder from one of the county’s major families.
