Chapter 155: Twins

“What is it?”

For Taiwan novels, the top choice is Super Awesome.

Seeing Lin Jing suddenly staring at the token, Divine Pine asked.

“It’s nothing. A Demon Subduing Guard discovered a Yin Corpse Sect stronghold, and I received the intel as well.”

“You want to clear out this Yin Corpse Sect stronghold?” Divine Pine guessed Lin Jing’s thoughts.

“Yes.” Lin Jing gripped the token tightly. “The report says there are two individuals with special Physiques being held captive in this stronghold.”

“I remember that’s how you were rescued by the Beast Taming Sect from a Yin Corpse Sect stronghold back then.”

“Besides me, the nearest Demon Subduing Division branch should have received the intel too. If they’re lucky, those two will be saved regardless.”

“However, it’s a rare chance to take revenge on the Yin Corpse Sect with my own strength. Although it’s just a small stronghold guarded by a Golden Core demonic Cultivator, a thousand-mile levee can collapse from a single ant hole.”

“Very well, consider it a trial for you. Go ahead.” Divine Pine thought it was a good idea; by wiping out a demonic sect stronghold, Lin Jing should finally be able to kill.

“As long as no Nascent Soul expert intervenes this time, I won’t step in to help you.”

“Alright.” Lin Jing activated the token, and in the next moment, it pointed him in the right direction.

Utilizing this Extremely Cold Land, the Ice Soul Gu had successfully reached Foundation Establishment, and its Bloodline had been promoted from King-rank to Emperor-rank.

Driven by the Ice Soul Gu’s Foundation Establishment, he himself had advanced from the Qi Refining Eleventh Layer to the twelfth layer.

Just as the Child Immortal had said, now that he had achieved Fusion with the Ice Soul Gu, ordinary Golden Core Cultivators couldn’t hope to gain any advantage over him.

With many other trump cards as well, he was somewhat confident in facing this Yin Corpse Sect stronghold guarded by a Golden Core demonic Cultivator.

Lin Jing flew by controlling his Qi, instantly transforming into a streak of blue light as he rushed toward the Yin Corpse Sect stronghold.

Meanwhile, in the Sky Domain, in a valley on the outskirts of Qianxun City.

An old man with his face hidden by a black robe looked at the Foundation Establishment Stage Demon Subduing Guard before him, who had been pierced through the chest and died. He casually flicked a handful of Corpse Fire, incinerating the body.

“Mmm!!”

“!!”

Behind him were two grey-robed Yin Corpse Sect demonic Cultivators.

These two demonic Cultivators were escorting a young boy and girl who had been placed under an Immobilization Spell.

Seeing the tragic death of the Demon Subduing Guard, tears immediately welled up in the eyes of the boy and girl.

“Chief, it seems we’ve been discovered by the Demon Subduing Division. Should we leave this place as soon as possible?”

“Demon Subduing Guards possess a secret technique to transmit intel to branches thousands of miles away. I don’t know if he has already sent out the information about this location,” a grey-robed demonic Cultivator asked.

“No need.”

“We’ve already confirmed the transaction with the buyer at this location. Changing it last minute would be too troublesome.”

“We’ll leave after finishing this deal as quickly as possible. You two did well in the capture this time. Once the transaction is complete, I will apply for rewards for both of you.”

“Yes!” Although the two Yin Corpse Sect Cultivators felt that trading here was still too risky, they didn’t dare to disobey the Chief’s orders.

Upon hearing this, the two bound youths looked despairing. They were both Qi Training Stage Cultivators and bore some resemblance to each other, likely being siblings.

Having been captured by the Yin Corpse Sect, the two had already envisioned their fate.

The two Yin Corpse Sect Cultivators responsible for the escort glanced at each other, not expecting their luck to be so good this time.

They had captured two twin physiques without any trouble.

The twin physique usually only appears in twins; it has no effect if possessed by just one person.

However, if Cultivators with the twin physique fight side by side, they can communicate telepathically, their strength soars, and they can share the Spells they’ve mastered—it’s quite formidable.

Pfft.

Suddenly, a streak of white light pierced through from afar, directly penetrating the heads of the two grey-robed demonic Cultivators. Their eyes widened as a Golden Core Stage Demon Subduing Guard appeared in the sky.

He was clad in red armor, his eyes filled with righteousness.

Seeing this Golden Core Stage Demon Subduing Guard, the two Yin Corpse Sect Cultivators died with their eyes open, regretting that they hadn’t insisted on persuading the Chief to change the transaction location.

Meanwhile, seeing a Golden Core Stage Demon Subduing Guard appear, the boy and girl’s hearts raced as the hope of survival was rekindled.

However, in the next moment, that hope quickly plummeted to the bottom.

“You arrived quickly. Keep a better leash on your subordinates next time,” the Chief of Yin Corpse Sect said to the arriving Demon Subduing Guard,

speaking coldly.

“That man was a newcomer and didn’t know better, but he’s already paid with his life, hasn’t he?” The Golden Core Demon Subduing Guard spoke. “The usual rules: I get credit for wiping out this stronghold, and you take these two twins.”

“Hmph, I’ve already placed what you wanted inside the stronghold; those are your spoils of war.” As the Chief of Yin Corpse Sect finished speaking, the two with twin physiques looked terrified. Their hearts felt like they had fallen into an ice cellar; they never expected a Demon Subduing Division Cultivator, whose duty was to eliminate demons and defend the Dao, to be in league with the Yin Corpse Sect.

They had thought someone was coming to save them, but little did they know they were the trade items between the Chief of Yin Corpse Sect and the Demon Subduing Division.

“Mmm!!”

“Mmph!!”

As for the Demon Subduing Guard, he didn’t care about the twins’ thoughts, because before long, they would become the Corpse Puppets of this Chief of Yin Corpse Sect.

Over the years, using his position, he had secretly provided information to the Yin Corpse Sect.

In exchange, the Yin Corpse Sect would sacrifice some strongholds and peripheral demonic Cultivators to provide him with achievements.

Under this cooperation model, he had been promoted from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, becoming a Demon Subduing Guard in charge of a regional branch. His path to promotion had been exceptionally smooth.

It was far more comfortable and efficient than his past life of risking everything to fight demonic Cultivators.

“Hehehehe…”

Just as the Chief of Yin Corpse Sect and the Golden Core Demon Subduing Guard were getting what they needed and were about to complete the transaction, a strange laugh suddenly rang out from the sky.

Divine Pine looked at everything below and then at Lin Jing’s expressionless face, wanting to laugh very much.

It also never expected to encounter such a situation. It was curious, now seeing this scene,

what Lin Jing’s inner thoughts would be.

“No thoughts. Isn’t this quite common?”

“It’s just that the enemy has changed from one Golden Core to two.”

“Fortunately, it’s just two in the Early Stage of Golden Core,” Lin Jing said calmly.

“Who’s there?”

With Lin Jing concealing his presence through multiple means like Illusion Spells, Seal techniques, and the Moulting Technique, even the two Golden Core Cultivators hadn’t noticed his arrival. It was only when Divine Pine couldn’t help but laugh that they noticed him.

“Qi Training Stage?”

Although the Chief of Yin Corpse Sect and the Demon Subduing Guard were puzzled as to why a Qi Training Stage Cultivator had suddenly appeared, since the transaction site had been seen, they both had the same thought: kill this Cultivator first.

“Die!”

The Demon Subduing Guard looked at Lin Jing, and two streaks of white light shot from his eyes—the same Spell that had just killed the two Foundation Establishment demonic Cultivators in an instant.

However, facing those two streaks of white light, Lin Jing only slightly raised his hand. In the next instant, cold air surged, spreading from his arm.

The light was frozen in mid-air.

Fine snow began to dance in the sky. The twins looked up at Lin Jing in the air, their gazes dazed.
